Item 1. BUSINESS

Business

Overview

We are the leading global provider of software and related services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations. Our missionstated company purpose is to makepower the world a better placebusiness of philanthropy from fundraising to outcomes. We strive to help our customers accomplish their missions and are guided by working with the nonprofit community to improve lives. We support our mission statement through the following corporate values:


Our people make us great.

Customers are at the heart of everything we do.

We must be good stewards of our resources.

Innovation drives success.

Our actions are guided by honesty and integrity.

Service to others makes the world a better place.

Our customers use our products and services to help increase donations, reduce fundraising costs, build online communities and improve communications with constituents, manage their finances and optimize operations. We have focused solely on the nonprofit market since our incorporation in 1982. At the end of 2009,2012, we had approximately 22,000more than 27,000 customers spread over 5561 countries. Our customers come from nearly every segment of the nonprofit sector, including education, foundations, health and human services, faith-based, arts and cultural, public and societal benefits, environment and animal welfare, andas well as international and foreign affairs.


Nonprofit Industry

The nonprofit industry is large and diverse

There were more than 1.7nearly 1.6 million U.S. nonprofit organizations registered with the Internal Revenue Service in 2008,2011, including 1.21.1 million charitable 501(c)(3) organizations, and we estimate there are approximately another 2.03 million nonprofit organizationscharities internationally. According to Giving USA 2009,2012, donations to nonprofit

Index to Financial Statements

organizations in the U.S.United States in 20082011 were $307.7$298.4 billion, amounting to 2.2%2.0% of U.S. GDP.GDP, which increased from donations in 2010 of $286.9 billion. The compound annual growth rate of donations over the 40 year40-year period from 19681971 to 20082011 was 7.2%6.6%, not adjusted for inflation. The compound annual growth rate of U.S. GDP over the same 40-year period was 6.7%, not adjusted for inflation. These nonprofit organizations also receive fees for services they provide, which are estimated at approximately $850 billionmore than $1 trillion annually.

Johns Hopkins University’s 2006 Nonprofit Employment Data Project, the most recent survey on nonprofit employment data, indicated that nonprofits employ nearly 10% of the work force in the United States and more if volunteers are included. Also according to this study, worldwide, nonprofit organizations accounted for $1.3 trillion in total annual expenditures.


Traditional methods of fundraising are often costly and inefficient

Many nonprofits use manual methods or stand-alone software applications not designed to manage fundraising. Such methods are often costly and inefficient because of the difficulties in effectively collecting, sharing, and using donation-related information. Furthermore, general purpose and Internet-related software applications frequently have limited functionality and do not efficiently integrate multiple databases. Based on our market research, nearly a quarter of every dollar donated is used

1



for fundraising expenses alone. Some nonprofit organizations have developed proprietary software, but doing so is expensive, requiring on-site technical personnel for development, implementation and maintenance.

The nonprofit industry faces particular operational challenges

Nonprofit organizations must efficiently:


Solicit funds and build relationships with major donors;

Garner small cash contributions from numerous contributors;

Manage and develop complex relationships with large numbers of constituents;

Communicate their accomplishments and the importance of their mission online and offline;

Comply with complex accounting, tax and reporting issuesrequirements that differ from those for traditional businesses;

Solicit cash and in-kind contributions from businesses to help raise money or deliver products/products and services;

Provide a wide array of programs and services to individual constituents; and

Improve the data collection and information sharing capabilities of their employees, volunteers and donors by creating and providing distributed access to centralized databases.

In addition, as a result of the negative impact the recent challenging economic environment has had a negative impact on donations, and we believe the nonprofit industrysector has an even greater need for operational efficiencies to maximize the services they can deliver. Because of these challenges, we believe nonprofit organizations can benefit from software applications specifically designed to serve their particular needs.

The

Blackbaud Solutions

We offer a broad suite of products and services that address the fundraising needs and operational challenges facing nonprofit organizations by providing themorganizations. We provide our customers with software and services that help them increase donations, reduce the overall costs of managing their businesses and build a strong sense of community while effectively managing communications with their constituents. We provide our solutions to nonprofit organizations in several ways. Today, weWe offer our products principally on a perpetual license basis. However, an increasing number of our products are offered onbasis, a software-as-a-service (SaaS)(“SaaS”), or as a “hosted” software offering and we expect this trend to continue in the future.offerings. We also offer a suite of analytical tools and related services that enable nonprofit organizations to extract, aggregate and analyze vast quantities of data to make better-informed operational decisions. In addition, we help our customers increase the returns on their technology investments by providing a broad range of consulting, training and professional services, maintenance and technical support as well as maintenancepayment processing services.
Our Strategy
Our objective is to maintain and technical support.

Indexextend our position as the leading provider of software and related services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations, supporting their missions from fundraising to Financial Statements

Nonprofitoutcomes. Our key strategies for achieving this objective are to:

Achieve worldwide constituent relationship management (“CRM”) leadership for our Blackbaud CRM product
We intend to extend the penetration of our Blackbaud CRM product line to larger, more complex nonprofit organizations, leveraging our expertise with enterprise implementations to achieve worldwide leadership in CRM. We believe our Blackbaud CRM solution is a scalable solution designed specifically to meet the needs of mid- to-large-sized organizations, bringing together disparate information such as annual and capital giving, gift planning, major giving, and volunteer systems, both online and offline and across various chapters and programs within a given organization. With a single system of record that can be securely and efficiently shared, organizations can turn their data into timely, actionable information that increases the success of their fundraising efforts, better synchronizes campaigns across chapters and field offices, and strengthens relationships with constituents.
We believe that our existing proprietary software can form the foundation for a wider range of solutions for nonprofit organizations. Our current products share over half of our proprietary software code and were developed using common standards and practices. We believe this shared code allows us to more cost effectively expedite the development and rollout of product offerings and updates. In addition, we are building our future product offerings on this common platform, which we anticipate will improve our ability to create new offerings efficiently and expeditiously, while allowing our customers to seamlessly collect and analyze supporter information from a variety of sources. In the future, we plan to offer pre-packaged solutions designed to service an even larger group of nonprofit organizations.

Grow our worldwide customer base
We intend to expand our industry-leading customer base and enhance our market position. We have established a strong market presence with more than 27,000 customers. We believe that the fragmented nature of the industry presents an opportunity for us to continue to increase our market penetration. We plan to achieve this by making use of our next generation solutions to continue transforming our business to cloud-based applications, which should allow us to serve the entire mid-market customer segment. We also plan to streamline our sales efforts to the small market customer segment and intend to expand our direct sales efforts, especially with regard to national, enterprise and global account-focused sales teams.
We believe the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and the Netherlands, as well as other international markets, represent growing market opportunities for our products and services. We believe the overall market of international nonprofit organizations is changing. Donations to international nonprofit organizations are becoming increasingly important in response to reductions in governmental funding. U.S.-based nonprofit organizations are growing their international activities and opening overseas locations. We believe the international marketplace is currently underserved, and we intend to increase our presence by expanding our sales and marketing efforts internationally. We plan to sell complementary products and services to our installed base of customers, and we plan to offer new products tailored to international markets, including leveraging our market leading domestic analytics solutions to develop offerings tailored specifically to meet the needs of foreign and multi-national nonprofits.
Revolutionize the customer experience
We intend to make our customers' experience with us effective, efficient and satisfying from their initial interest in our products and services, through their decision to increase donations

For example, we are increasing the number of our offerings sold under a subscription pricing model, which can make it easier for customers to purchase our solutions. We will continue to focus on providing the highest level of product support while continuing to enhance our existing products and other constituents. Our fundraisingdeveloping new products and services enable themdesigned to use a centralized database,help allow our customers to more effectively achieve their missions.

Pursue strategic partnerships
We intend to continue to selectively pursue acquisitions, to expand existing partnerships and to develop new strategic partnerships to enter new markets and pursue significant untapped opportunities. We intend to develop these alliances with companies that provide us with complementary technology, customers and personnel with significant relevant experience, as well as to increase our access to additional geographic and vertical markets. We have completed significant acquisitions over the Internetpast five years both in the United States and internationally, including the acquisition of Convio, Inc. (Convio) in May 2012. The acquisition of Convio provided us with expanded subscription and online offerings and we expect it to accelerate our evolution to a subscription-based revenue model.
We are also currently involved in a number of strategic relationships which allow us to provide a wider variety of offerings and provide customers with integrated solutions, further enhancing the value of our proprietary technology. We believe that our size and history of leadership in the nonprofit sector make us an arrayattractive acquirer or partner for others in the industry.

Our Operating Structure
The nonprofit market is very diverse, with organizations that range from small, local charities to large, multinational relief organizations. The needs of analytical tools,nonprofits can vary greatly according to facilitatetheir size and expand their fundraising efforts. In addition,function. To better serve the wide variety of nonprofits in the market, we organize our operating structure into four operating units: the Enterprise Customer Business Unit, or ECBU, the General Markets Business Unit, or GMBU, the International Business Unit, or IBU, and Target Analytics.
Following is a description of each of our operating units:

The ECBU is focused on marketing, sales, delivery and support to large and/or strategic customers, specifically identified prospects and customers in North America.

The GMBU is focused on marketing, sales, delivery and support to all emerging and mid-sized prospects and customers in North America.

The IBU is focused on marketing, sales, delivery and support to all prospects and customers outside of North America. 

Target Analytics is primarily focused on marketing, sales and delivery of analytic services to all prospects and customers in North America.

Each operating unit contains specialized sales, services, support, marketing, and finance functions. We believe this structure allows us to be more responsive to the needs of fundamentally different customer segments and to focus on developing solutions appropriate for these unique markets while leveraging the infrastructure of our broader organization and shared technology in a cost-effective manner. It also allows us to develop highly customized approaches to marketing and selling our products in the markets we serve.

Products and Services
We license software and provide various services help nonprofit organizations increase donations by enabling them to:

Solicit large numbersto our customers. During 2012, we generated revenue in four reportable segments and in four geographic regions, as described in more detail in Note 16 of potential donors;

Deliver personalized messages that drive constituent action;

Provide an easy-to-use system for sharing and using critical fundraising information;

Utilize our Internet-based offerings to receive online donations and support online volunteer and events management; and

By automating business processes, our products streamline operations for our customers and help to reduce the overall costs of operating their organizations. We provide solutions that address many of the technological and business process needs of our customers, including:

Management of complex volunteer networks; and

Results tracking for multiple campaigns.

Our Strategy

Our objective is to maintain and extend our position as the leading provider of softwarePayment processing and related services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations. Key elements for achieving this objective are to:

Grow our customer base

We intend to expand our industry-leading customer base and enhance our market position. We have established a strong market presence with approximately 22,000 customers. However, in a 2007 nonprofit market survey by Addison Whitney, only 30% of respondents were familiar with Blackbaud. We believe that the fragmented nature

Index to Financial Statements

of the industry presents an opportunity for us to continue to increase our market penetration. We plan to achieve this by making use of our experience, the depth of our product capabilities, and our strong brand recognition. We also intend to expand our overall sales efforts, especially national accounts and enterprise-focused sales teams.

Maintain and expand existing customer relationships

We have historically had success selling maintenance renewals and additional products and services to existing customers. In each of the past five years, approximately 95% of our customers renewed their maintenance and support plans. We will continue to pursue opportunities to expand our existing customer base by increasing both the number of our products and services they use and the frequency with which they use them. To this end, we have dedicated sales teams that focus exclusively on selling products and services to existing customers.

Enable customers to effectively utilize the Internet as a comprehensive business tool

We will enhance our existing products and develop new products and services that will allow our customers to more fully utilize the Internet to effectively achieve their missions. Although online fundraising comprises a small percentage of all charitable contributions, our research indicates that online donations are growing as a percentage of total contributions. A study we conducted together with the ePhilanthropy Foundation found that online donations increased by 44% in 2008. We offer a variety of Internet applications and consulting services that allow nonprofits to use the Internet for online fundraising, e-marketing, alumni and membership directories, newsletters, event management and volunteer coordination.

Introduce additional products and services

We intend to use our expertise and experience in developing leading products for the nonprofit industry to introduce additional products and related services. We plan to build stronger relationships with existing customers and attract new customers. We believe that our existing proprietary software can form the foundation for an even wider range of products and services for nonprofit organizations. Our current products share over half of our proprietary software code and were developed using common standards and practices. We believe this shared code allows us to more cost effectively expedite the development and rollout of product offerings and updates. In addition, we are building our future product offerings on a common platform, which we anticipate will improve our ability to create new offerings efficiently and expeditiously.

Pursue strategic acquisitions and alliances

We intend to selectively pursue acquisitions and alliances in the future with companies that provide us with complementary technology, customers and personnel with significant relevant experience, as well as to increase our access to additional geographic and vertical markets. We have completed significant acquisitions over the past five years, including the acquisition of Target Software, Inc. and Target Analysis Group, Inc., or the Target Companies, in January 2007, eTapestry.com, or eTapestry, in August 2007, Kintera Inc., or Kintera, in July 2008 and RLC Customer Centric Technology B.V., or RLC, in April 2009. We are also currently involved in a number of strategic relationships. We believe that our size and our history of leadership in the nonprofit sector make us an attractive acquirer or partner for others in the industry.

Expand international presence

We believe the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia as well as other international markets represent growing market opportunities for our products and services. As further discussed below, we recently established a separate business unit to serve the needs of our operations in international markets and expand our presence in these markets. The acquisition of RLC in April 2009 provided us a foundation to expand into the Netherlands and other Western European markets. We currently have offices in Almere, Netherlands; Glasgow, Scotland; London, England; Sydney, Australia; and Toronto, Canada. We believe the overall market of international nonprofit organizations is changing. Donations to nonprofit organizations are increasing in response to reductions

Index to Financial Statements

in governmental funding of certain activities. U.S.-based nonprofit organizations are growing their international activities and opening overseas locations. We believe the international marketplace is currently underserved and we intend to increase our international presence by expanding our sales and marketing efforts. We plan to make use of our installed base of customers to sell complementary products and services, and we plan to develop and offer new products tailored to international markets.

Products and Services

We license software and provide various services to our customers. During 2009, we generated revenue in six reportable segments and in four geographic regions, as described in more detail in Note 14 of our consolidated financial statements. These revenue segments are license fees, maintenance fees, and subscription fees for our software products, consulting and education services, analytic services and others. Effective January 1, 2010, we reorganized our business into three operating units, which we believe will better align our organization around key customer groups. The three operating units are the General Markets Business Unit, the Enterprise Customer Business Unit and the International Business Unit.

regulation compliance.


Software products

We offer nonprofit organizations a wide variety of software products, which can be used individually to help organizations with specific functions, such as fundraising, financial management, website management and prospect research, or combined into a fully-integrated suite of tools to help them manage multiple areas of their operations.

Sales and Marketing

The majority of our software and related services are sold through our direct sales forces.force. Our direct sales force is complemented by a team of account development representatives responsible for sales lead generation and qualification. These sales and marketing professionals are located in Charleston, South Carolina, Cambridge, Massachusetts, near Indianapolis, Indiana and in San Diego, California. We also employ remote sales staff in metropolitan areas throughout the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Canada, Australia and Australia.New Zealand. As of December 31, 2009,2012, we had approximately 233250 direct sales employees. We plan to continue expanding our direct sales force in the Americas, Europe, Australia and Asia as our operations grow internationally and market demand recoverscontinues to recover from the current economic environment. During 2009, our sales force was divided into two main areas of responsibility:

Selling products and services to existing customers; and

Acquiring new customers.

In addition, a dedicated portion of our sales team is focused exclusively on large, enterprise-wide accounts. We have a group of sales engineers who support both new and existing customers in this market segment. In general, sales representatives are responsible for handling one product line in a designated geographic area. However, sales representatives for the K-12 independent schools market, small college market and the arts and cultural market are responsible for selling all of our software products.

We generally begin a customer relationship with the sale of one of our primary products or services, such as The Raiser’sRaiser's Edge, Blackbaud CRM or Blackbaud Enterprise CRM,Luminate, and then selloffer additional products and services to the customer as the organization’sorganization's needs increase.

We conduct marketing programs to create brand recognition and market awareness for our products and services. Our marketing efforts include participation at tradeshows, technical conferences and technology seminars, publication of technical and educational articles in industry journals and preparation of competitive analyses. Our customers and strategic partners provide references and recommendations that we often feature in our advertising and promotional activities.

We believe relationships with third parties can enhance our sales and marketing efforts. We have and will continue to establish additional relationships with companies that provide services to the nonprofit industry, such as consultants, educators, publishers, financial service providers, complementary technology providers and data providers. These companies promote or complement our nonprofit solutions and provide us access to new customers.


Corporate Philanthropy and Volunteerism

We believe that service to others makes the world a better place and champion this value through our global corporate philanthropy and employee-focusedemployee-volunteer programs. In addition to having employees select grant recipients for our endowment fund, we celebrate individual acts of service through a competitive grant program that honors excellent examples of volunteerism and benefits the organizations they serve.


Competition

The market for software and related services in the nonprofit sector is highly competitive although the competition is highlyand fragmented. For certain areas of the market, entry barriers are low. However, we believe our experience and product depth makes us a formidablestrong competitor. We expect to continue to see new competitors as the market matures and as nonprofit organizations become more aware of the advantages and efficiencies attainable through the use of specialized software. A number of diversified software enterprises have made acquisitions or developed products for the market, including Ellucian, Sage and SunGard.Campus Management. Other companies that compete with us, such as Microsoft, Salesforce.com and Oracle, have greater marketing resources, revenue and

market recognition than we do. They offer fewsome products that are designed specifically for nonprofits, in addition to some of their products which have a degree of functionality for nonprofits that could be considered competitive. These larger companies could decide to enterfocus more on the marketnonprofit sector with new, directly competitive products or through acquisitions of our current competitors.

We mainly face competition from four sources:

Software developers offering specialized products designed to address specific needs of nonprofit organizations;

organizations, some of which are sold with subscription pricing;

Custom-developed solutions;

Providers of traditional, less automated fundraising services;services such as services that support traditional direct mail campaigns, special events fundraising, telemarketing and

personal solicitations;

Custom-developed products created either internally or outsourced to custom service providers; and

Software developers offering general products not designed to address specific needs of nonprofit organizations.

We compete with several software developers that provide specialized products, such as on-demand software specifically designed for nonprofit use. In addition, we compete with custom-developed solutions created either internally by the nonprofit organizationorganizations or outside by custom service providers. We believe that we compete successfully, against these companies, asbecause building aefficient, highly functional custom solutionsolutions equal to ours requires extensive financial and technical resources that mayare beyond the capabilities of custom solution providers or require resources that might not be available or cost-effective for thewithin nonprofit organization.organizations. In addition, the nonprofit organization’sorganization's legacy database and software system may not have been designed to support the increasingly complex and advanced needs of today’stoday's growing community of nonprofit organizations.

We also compete with providers of traditional, less automated fundraising services, including parties providing services in support of traditional direct mail campaigns, special events fundraising, telemarketing and personal solicitations. Although there are numerous general software developers marketing products that have some application in the nonprofit market, these competitors have generally neglected to focus specifically on this market and typically lack the domain expertise to cost effectively build or implement integrated solutions for the market’smarket's needs. We believe we compete successfully against these traditional fundraising services, primarily because our products and services are more automated, more robust, more tailored to the needs of non-profits and more efficient.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

Risk Factors


Our business operations face a number of risks. These risks should be read and considered with other information provided in this report.

General economic factors, both domestically and internationally, might adversely affect our financial performance.

General economic conditions, globally or in one or more of the markets we serve, might adversely affect our financial performance. Weakness in the financial and housing markets, inflation, higher levels of unemployment, unavailability of consumer credit, higher consumer debt levels, volatility in credit, equity and foreign exchange markets, higher tax rates and other changes in tax laws, overall economic slowdown and other economic factors could adversely affect donations to non-profits, reducing their revenue and therefore possibly their demand for the products and services we sell and lengthen our sales and payment cycles. During 2009, we experienced a decrease in demand for our products and services as difficult and uncertain economic conditions put pressure on the spending of many organizations in the nonprofit industry. Higher interest rates, inflation, higher costs of labor, insurance and healthcare, higher tax rates and other changes in tax laws, changes in other laws and regulations and other economic factors in the United States could increase our cost of sales and operating, selling, general and administrative expenses, and otherwise adversely affect our operations and operating results. These factors affect not only our operations, but also the operations of suppliers from whom we purchase or license products and services, a factor that could result in an increase in the cost to us of our products and services, reducing our margins.

We significantly increased our leverage in connection with our acquisition of Convio.
We amended and restated our credit agreement in February 2012 to increase our borrowing capacity to $325.0 million. We incurred a substantial amount of indebtedness in connection with our acquisition of Convio in May 2012. As a result of this indebtedness, our interest payment obligations have increased. The degree to which we are leveraged could have adverse effects on our business, including the following:
Requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, dividends and other general corporate purposes; 
Limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industries in which we operate; 
Restricting us from making additional strategic acquisitions or exploiting business opportunities; 
Placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt; 
Limiting our ability to borrow additional funds; and 
Decreasing our ability to compete effectively or operate successfully under adverse economic and industry conditions.
If we incur additional debt, these risks will intensify. Our ability to meet our debt service obligations will depend upon our future performance, which will be subject to the financial, business and other factors affecting our operations, many of which are beyond our control.
A substantial portion of our revenue is currently derived from The Raiser’sRaiser's Edge, Luminate Online and Blackbaud Enterprise CRM, and a decline in sales or renewals of thisthese or similar products and related services could harm our business.

We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from the sale of The Raiser’sRaiser's Edge and Blackbaud Enterprise CRM, and other products that help customers manage constituent relationships and related services, and we expect revenue from these products and related services is expected to continue to account for a substantial portion of our total revenue for the foreseeable future. For example, revenue from the sale of The Raiser’sRaiser's Edge and related services represented approximately 38%30%, 45%,35% and 50%38% of our total revenue in 2009, 20082012, 2011 and 2007, respectively. Revenue from the sale of Blackbaud Enterprise CRM and related services represented approximately 4%2010, 2%, and 1% of our total revenue in 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Because we generallyoften sell licenses to our products on a perpetual basis and deliver new versions and enhancements to customers who purchase annual maintenance and support, our future license, services and maintenance

revenue are substantially dependent on sales to new customers. In addition, we frequently sell The Raiser’s Edgethese or similar products to new customers and then attempt to generate incremental revenue from the sale of additional products and services. If demand for The Raiser’sRaiser's Edge, Luminate Online, Blackbaud Enterprise CRM or similar products declines significantly, our business would suffer.

We encounter lengthy sales cycles which could have an adverse effect on the amount, timing and predictability of our revenue and sales.

Potential customers, particularly our larger enterprise-wideenterprise clients, generally commit significant resources to an evaluation of available software and require us to expend substantial time, effort and money educating them as to the value of our software and services. Sales of our software products to these larger customers often require an

Index to Financial Statements

extensive education and marketing effort. We could expend significant funds and management resources during the sales cycle and ultimately fail to close the sale. Historically, our software product sales cycle averages approximately two months for sales to existing customers and from six to nine months for sales to new customers and large enterprise-wide sales.customers. Recently, we have experienced longer sales cycle times, delays and postponements of purchasing decisions by our current and prospective customers as a result of challenges posed upon nonprofit organizations by the weakuncertain economic environment. Our sales cycle for all of our products and services is subject to significant risks and delays over which we have little or no control, including:

our customers’Our customers' budgetary constraints;

theThe timing of our clients’clients' budget cycles and approval processes;

theThe impact of the macro economicmacroeconomic environment on our customers;

our clients’Our clients' willingness to replace their current methods or software solutions;

ourOur need to educate potential customers about the uses and benefits of our products and services; and

theThe timing and expiration of our clients’clients' current license agreements or outsourcing agreements for similar services.

If we are unsuccessful in closing sales after expending significant funds and management resources or if we experience delays as discussed above, it could have a material adverse effect on the amount, timing and predictability of our revenue.

We encounter long and complex implementation cycles, particularly for our largest customers, which could have an adverse effect on our profitability and the timing and predictability of our revenue.

Our implementation cycle for large enterprise-wide sales can extend for a year or more, which can negatively impact the timing and predictability of our revenue.

The implementation of our products and services, particularly in our large Enterprise CRM engagements, involvefrequently involves complex configuration, business process reengineering and system interfaces.interfaces and can extend for a year or more. Our Enterpriseenterprise CRM product offering isofferings are relatively new, and we may not have historical experience with unanticipated implementation challenges or complexities that could arise in these engagements. Further, these projects typically are heavily dependent on customer participation, communication and timely responsiveness throughout the implementation cycle. As the complexity of these engagements increase,increases, our revenues and profitability could suffer from delays in project completion and having to perform unplanned incremental services at rates substantially below our normal hourly rates and from delaysor make investments in project completion.the form of non-billable service hours or other concessions. If we are unsuccessful in implementing our products or if we experience delays, it could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and the timing and predictability of our revenue.


If our customers do not renew their annual maintenance and support agreements or subscriptions for our products or if they do not renew them on terms that are favorable to us, our business might suffer.

Most of our maintenance agreements and subscriptions are for a one year term. As the end of the annual period approaches, we pursue the renewal of the agreement with the customer. Historically, maintenance and subscriptions renewals have represented a significant portion of our total revenue. Because of this characteristic of our business, if our customers choose not to renew their maintenance and support agreements or subscriptions with us on beneficial terms, our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed.

Our customers' renewal rates may decline or fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including their level of satisfaction with our products and services and their ability to continue their operations and spending levels.

We might not generate increased business from our current customers, which could limit our revenue in the future.

Our business model is highly dependent on the success of our efforts to increase salessell additional products and services to our existing customers. Many of our customers initially make a purchase of only one or a limited number of our products or only for a single department within their organization. These customers might choose not to expand their use of or make

Index to Financial Statements

additional purchases of our products and services. If we fail to generate additional business from our current customers, our revenue could


13



grow at a slower rate or even decrease. In addition, as we deploy new applications and features for our existing products or introduce new products and services, our current customers could choose not to purchase these new offerings.

The Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) pricing modeloffering of our products on a subscription basis is evolving and demand by our customers for this modelthese offerings is increasing. Our failure to manage itsthis evolution and demand could lead to lower than expected revenues and profits.

In recent years, much of our revenue growth has beenwas derived from increased subscription offerings, including SaaS. This business model depends heavily on achieving economies of scale because the initial upfront investment is costly and the associated revenue is recognized on a ratable basis. If we fail to achieve appropriate economies of scale or if we fail to manage or anticipate the evolution and demand offor the subscription software pricing models, then our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

The additional investments required to meet customer demand will increase our cost base, which will make it more difficult for us to offset any future revenue shortfalls by reducing expenses in the short term.

Defects, delays or interruptions in our SaaS and hosting services could diminish demand for these services and subject us to substantial liability.
We currently utilize data center hosting facilities to provide SaaS and hosting services to our customers. Any damage to, or failure of, our data center systems generally could result in interruptions in service to our customers, notwithstanding any disaster recovery arrangements that may currently be in place at these facilities. Because our SaaS, Internet-based and hosting service offerings are complex, and we have incorporated a variety of new computer hardware and software systems at the data centers, our services might have errors or defects that users identify after they begin using our services. This could result in unanticipated downtime for our customers and harm to our reputation and our business. Internet-based services frequently contain undetected errors when first introduced or when new versions or enhancements are released. We have from time to time found defects in our Internet-based services and new errors might again be detected in the future. In addition, our customers might use our Internet-based offerings in unanticipated ways that cause a disruption in service for other customers attempting to access their data.
Because our customers use these services for important aspects of their business, any defects, delays or disruptions in service or other performance problems with our services could hurt our reputation and damage our customers' businesses. If that occurs, customers could elect to cancel their service, or delay or withhold payment to us, we could lose future sales or customers might make claims against us, which could result in an increase in our provision for doubtful accounts, an increase in collection cycles for accounts receivable or the expense and risk of litigation. Any of these could harm our business and our reputation.
The market for software and services for nonprofit organizations might not grow and nonprofit organizations might not continue to adopt our products and services.

Many nonprofit organizations have not traditionally used integrated and comprehensive software and services for their nonprofit-specific needs. We cannot be certain that the market for such products and services will continue to develop and grow or that nonprofit organizations will elect to adopt our products and services rather than continue to use traditional, less automated methods, attempt to develop software internally, rely upon legacy software systems, or use generalized software solutions not specifically designed for the nonprofit market. Nonprofit organizations that have already invested substantial resources in other fundraising methods or other non-integrated software solutions might be reluctant to adopt our products and services to supplement or replace their existing systems or methods. In addition, the implementation of one or more of our core software products can involve significant time and capital commitments by our customers, which they may be unwilling or unable to make. If demand for and market acceptance of our products and services does not increase, we might not grow our business as we expect.

Because a significant portion of our revenue is recognized ratably over the terms of the contract, downturns in sales may not be immediately reflected in our revenue.

We recognize our maintenance and subscriptions revenue monthly over the term of the customer agreement. The termterms of the customer agreement isagreements typically 12 months, although, it can extend to threerange from 1-3 years. As a result, much of the revenue we report in each quarter is attributable to agreements entered into during previous quarters. Consequently, a decline in sales to new customers, renewals by existing customers or market acceptance of our products in any one quarter will not necessarily be fully reflected in the revenues in that quarter and will negatively affect our revenues and profitability in future quarters.

Our operations might be affected by the occurrence of a natural disaster or other catastrophic event.
We depend on our principal executive offices and other facilities for the continued operation of our business. Although we have contingency plans in effect for natural disasters or other catastrophic events, these events, including terrorist attacks and natural

14



disasters such as hurricanes and earthquakes could disrupt one or more of these facilities and adversely affect our operations. In addition, our Charleston headquarters require a remediation effort to improve weather resistance. This remediation effort is the responsibility of the landlord, but delays in the remediation or disruption caused by the remediation effort could have an adverse effect on our operations. Even though we carry business interruption insurance policies and typically have provisions in our contracts that protect us in certain events, we might suffer losses as a result of business interruptions that exceed the coverage available under our insurance policies or for which we do not have coverage. Any natural disaster or catastrophic event affecting us could have a significant negative impact on our operations.
If the security of our software is breached, we fail to securely collect, store and transmit customer information, or we fail to safeguard confidential donor data, our businessproducts and services might be perceived as not being secure and our reputation and business could suffer.

Fundamental to the use of our products is the secure collection, storage and transmission of confidential donor and end user information. Third partiesAlthough we have commercially available network and application security, internal control measures, and physical security procedures to safeguard our systems, there can be no assurance that a security breach, intrusion, loss or theft of personal information will not occur, which may attempt to breach our security or that of our customers and their databases. We might be liable to our customers for any breach in such security and any breach could harm our customers, our business, and our reputation. Any imposition of liability, particularly liability that is not covered by insurance or is in excess of insurance coverage, could harm ourcustomer reputation and our businessfuture financial results and operating results. Also, computers, including those that utilize our software, are vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions, which could lead to interruptions, delays or loss of data. We might be requiredmay require us to expend significant capital and other resources to protect further against security breaches or to rectifyaddress these problems, caused by any security breach.

Index to Financial Statements

including notification under data privacy regulations.

A compromise of our software or other problemproblems that results in customer or donor personal information being obtained by unauthorized persons could adversely affect our reputation with our customers and others, as well as our operations, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity and could result in litigation against us or the imposition of penalties. In addition, a security breach could require that we expend significant additional resources related to our information security systems and could result in a disruption of our operations, particularly our online sales operations.

The existence of vulnerabilities, even if they do not result in a security breach, may harm customer confidence and require substantial resources to address, and we may not be able to discover or remedy such security vulnerabilities before they are exploited. Also, computers, including those that use our software, are vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions, which could lead to interruptions, delays or loss of data. We might be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect further against security breaches or to rectify problems caused by any security breach.

Privacy and security concerns, including evolving government regulation in the area of consumer data privacy, could adversely affect our business and operating results.

The effectiveness of our software products relies on our customers’customers' storage and use of data concerning their customers, including financial, personally identifying and other sensitive data. Our customers’customers' collection and use of thesethis data for donor profiling might raise privacy and security concerns and negatively impact the demand for our products and services. For example, our custom modeling and analytical services, including ProspectPoint, WealthPoint and donorCentrics, rely heavily on securing and making use of data we gather from various sources and privacy laws could jeopardize our ability to market and profit from those services. If a breach of customer data security were to occur, our products may be perceived as less desirable, which would negatively affect our business and operating results.

In 2009, data security and privacy have remained material concerns for both our customers and state legislatures.

Governments in some jurisdictions have enacted or are considering enacting consumer data privacy legislation, including laws and regulations applying to the solicitation, collection, processing and use of consumer data. This legislation could reduce the demand for our software products if we fail to design or enhance our products to enable our customers to comply with the privacy and security measures required by the legislation. Moreover, we may be exposed to liability under existing or new consumer data privacy legislation. For example, we are subject to the privacy provisions of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, and might be subject to similar provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and related regulations. Even technical violations of these laws can result in penalties that are assessed for each non-compliant transaction. As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, Congress passed the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or HI-TECH Act. The HI-TECH Act expands the reach of data privacy and security requirements of HIPAA to service providers. HIPAA and associated United States Department of Health and Human Services regulations permit our customers in the healthcare industry to use certain demographic protected health information (such as name, email or physical address and dates of service) for fundraising purposes and to disclose that subset of protected health information to their service providers for fundraising. We may be included in this service provider group under the revised HIPAA regulations by virtue of our service provider relationship with our customers in the healthcare industry. In general, we seek to contractually prohibit our healthcare industry customers from using other types of health information of their clients for fundraising purposes that would be non compliant with HIPAA, but we believe monitoring our healthcare customers' compliance with such prohibitions is not legally required of service providers and would be cost prohibitive. The law and regulations under HI-TECH are new and still subject to change or interpretation by legal authorities who could cause additional compliance burdens. If we or our customers were found to be subject to and in violation of any of these laws or other data

15



privacy laws or regulations, our business wouldcould suffer and we and/or our customers would likely have to change our business practices. In addition, these laws and regulations could impose significant costs on us and our customers and make it more difficult for donors to make online donations.

If we are unable, or customers believe we are unable, to detect and prevent unauthorized use of credit cards and safeguard confidential donor data, we could be subject to financial liability, our reputation could be harmed and customers may be reluctant to use our products and services.

Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other events or developments could result in a compromise or breach of the technology we use to protect sensitive transaction data. If any such compromise of our security, or the security of our customers, were to occur, it could result in misappropriation of proprietary information or interruptions in operations and have an adverse impact on our reputation or the reputation of our customers. All of our products are currently certified as Payment Application Data Security Standard compliant. Currently some of our products are not fully compliant with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, or PCI DSS. This or other factors could make customers believe we are unable to detect and prevent unauthorized use of credit cards or confidential donor data, which could harm our business. Additionally, these factors could make issuing banks believe the transactions of our customers are compromised and refuse to process those transactions, which could harm the reputation of our products and our business.

Additional PCI DSS standards go into effect next year.

Conforming our products and services to PCI DSS is expensive and time-consuming. Our failure to maintain compliance with PCI DSS could make customers believe we are unable to detect and prevent unauthorized use of credit cards and bank account numbers or protect confidential donor data and our reputation and business might be harmed.

Our servicessubscriptions and subscriptionservices revenue produces substantially lower gross margins than our license revenue, and changes in the relative mix of these and other sources of revenue could negatively affect our overall gross margins.

Our services revenue, which includes fees for consulting, implementation, training, data and technical services and analytics, was approximately 28%, 33% and 36% of our revenue for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Our services revenue has substantially lower gross margins than our product license revenue. An increase in the percentage of total revenue represented by services revenue would adversely affect our overall gross margins.

Certain of our services are contracted under fixed fee arrangements, which we base on estimates. If our estimated fees are less than our actual costs, our operating results would be adversely affected. Services revenue as a percentage of total revenue has varied significantly from quarter to quarter due to fluctuations in licensing revenue, economic changes, changes in the average selling prices for our products and services, our customers’ acceptance of our products and our sales force execution. In addition, the volume and profitability of services can depend in large part upon:

competitive pricing pressure on the rates that we can charge for our services;

the complexity of the customers’ information technology environment and the existence of multiple non-integrated legacy databases;

the resources directed by customers to their implementation projects; and

the extent to which outside consulting organizations provide services directly to customers.

For example, revenue from our training services, which represented 17%, 22% and 23% of our total services revenue during 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively, has recently experienced a decrease in demand because existing and prospective customers have been experiencing budgetary constraints resulting from the challenges posed by the overall economic environment. The training services revenue typically has a higher gross margin than other services revenue. A continued decrease in the demand for training services could adversely affect our profitability and operating results.

Our subscriptionsubscriptions revenue, which includes fees for providing access to hosted applications, application hosting services and access to certain data services and our online subscription training offerings, has experienced the largest percentage revenue growth over the last three years. SubscriptionSubscriptions revenue was approximately 24%36%, 16%28% and 10%26% of our revenue for 2009, 20082012, 2011 and 2007,2010, respectively. Our subscriptionsubscriptions revenue has substantially lower gross margins than our product license revenue. AnFor the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, our subscriptions margin was 58%, 59% and 63%. A continued increase in the percentage of total revenue represented by subscriptionsubscriptions revenue could adversely affect our overall gross margins. Ifmargins and operating results if we are unable to achieve economies of scale in our subscription based offerings. Additionally, if nonprofits in general, and specifically our customers and prospects, desire to adopt our subscription offerings much more rapidly than we currently anticipate and we are unable to respond in a timely fashion, we could encounter significant effects to our business, including substantial capital expenditures, reduction in profitability, decrease in revenue growth and/or we could become potentially less competitive, resulting in a loss of market share.

Any erosion


Our services revenue, which includes fees for consulting, customization, implementation, training, data and technical services and analytics, was approximately 27%, 29% and 27% of our revenue for 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Our services revenue has substantially lower gross margins forthan our product license revenue. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, our services and/or subscription revenue or any adverse changesmargin was 19%, 27% and 24%, respectively. An increase in the mixpercentage of our license versus service and subscriptiontotal revenue represented by services revenue without an improvement in services margin could adversely affect our operating results.

Services revenue as a percentage of total revenue has varied significantly from quarter to quarter due to fluctuations in licensing revenue, economic changes, varying accounting treatments, changes in the average selling prices for our products and services, our customers' acceptance of our products and our sales force execution. In addition, the volume and profitability of services can depend in large part upon:

Competitive pricing pressure on the rates that we can charge for our services;

Our quarterly financial results fluctuate and might be difficult to forecast and, if our future results are below either any guidance we might issue or the expectations of public market analysts and investors, the price of our common stock might decline.

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

theThe size and timing of sales of our software, including the relatively long sales cycles associated with many of our larger software sales;

budgetBudget and spending decisions by our customers;

marketThe degree of judgment required to estimate large consulting service engagements;

Scheduling considerations by our customers as they impact the delivery of purchased services;
Varying accounting treatments based upon the facts and circumstances of each arrangement;
Utilization of our professional services personnel;
Market acceptance of new products we release;

marketMarket acceptance of products we acquire;

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

changesChanges in our pricing policies or our competitors’competitors' pricing policies;

seasonality in our revenue;

generalGeneral economic conditions;conditions and

effects of tax law changes; and

costsCosts related to acquisitions of technologies or businesses.

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

Our failure to compete successfully could cause our revenue or market share to decline.

Our market is fragmented, highly competitive and rapidly evolving and there are limited barriers to entry for some aspects of this market. We mainly face competition from four sources:

softwareSoftware developers offering integrated specialized products designed to address specific needs of nonprofit organizations;

organizations, some of which are sold with subscription pricing;

providersProviders of traditional, less automated fundraising services such as services that support traditional direct mail campaigns, special events fundraising, telemarketing and personal solicitations;

custom-developedCustom-developed products created either internally or outsourced to custom service providers; and

softwareSoftware developers offering general products not designed to address specific needs of nonprofit organizations.

The companies we compete with and other potential competitors may have greater financial, technical and marketing resources and generate greater revenue and better name recognition than we do. IfCompanies such as Microsoft, Salesforce.com and Oracle offer some products that are designed specifically for nonprofit organizations, in addition to some of their products which have a degree of functionality for nonprofit organizations that could be considered competitive. Also, if one or more of our competitors or potential competitors were to merge or partner with one of our other competitors, the change in the competitive landscape could adversely affect our ability to compete effectively. For example, a large diversified software enterprise, such as Microsoft, Oracle or Salesforce.com, could decide to enter the market directly, including through acquisitions.

Index to Financial Statements

Competitive pressures can adversely impact our business by limiting the prices we can charge our customers and making the adoption and renewal of our solutions more difficult.


17



Our competitors might also establish or strengthen cooperative relationships with resellers and third-party consulting firms or other parties with whom we have had relationships, thereby limiting our ability to promote our products. These competitive pressures could cause our revenue and market share to decline.

If we fail to respond to technological changes to be competitive, our business could suffer.

The software industry is characterized by technological change, evolving industry standards in hardware and software technology, changes in customer requirements and frequent new product introductions and enhancements. The introduction of products encompassing new technologies can render existing products obsolete and unmarketable. As a result, our future success will depend, in part, upon our ability to continue to enhance existing products and develop and introduce in a timely manner or acquire new products that keep pace with technological developments, satisfy increasingly sophisticated customer requirements and achieve market acceptance. We cannot assure youThere is no assurance that we will successfully identify new product opportunities and develop and bring new products to market in a timely and cost-effective manner. Further, there can be no assurance that the products, capabilities or technologies developed by others will not render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive. In addition, because our service is designed to operate on a variety of network hardware and software platforms using a standard browser, we will need to continuously modify and enhance our service to keep pace with changes in Internet-related hardware, software, communication, browser and database technologies. We have made and continue to make significant working capital investments in accordance with evolving industry and customer requirements. These concentrations of working capital increase our risk of loss due to product or technology obsolescence. If we are unable to develop or acquire on a timely and cost-effective basis new software products or enhancements to existing products or if such new products or enhancements do not achieve market acceptance, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected.

If we were found subject to or in violation of any laws or regulations governing privacy or electronic fund transfers, we could be subject to liability or forced to change our business practices.

It is possible that the payment processing component of our web-based software is subject to various governmental regulations. Any further legislation at the state and federal levels could also restrict further our information gathering and disclosure practices. Existing and potential future privacy laws might limit our ability to develop new products and services that make use of data we gather from various sources. For example, our custom modeling and analytical services, including ProspectPoint, WealthPoint, P!N and donorCentrics, rely heavily on securing and making use of data we gather from various sources and privacy laws could jeopardize our ability to market and profit from those services. The provisions of these laws and related regulations are complicated, and we do not have extensive experience with these laws and related regulations. Even technical violations of these laws can result in penalties that are assessed for each non-compliant transaction. In addition, we might be subject to the privacy provisions of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and related regulations. If we or our customers were found to be subject to and in violation of any of these laws or other privacy laws or regulations, our business would suffer and we and/or our customers would likely have to change our business practices. In addition, these laws and regulations could impose significant costs on us and our customers and make it more difficult for donors to make online donations.

Because competition for highly qualified personnel is intense, we might not be able to attract and retain the employeeskey personnel and personnel we need to support our planned growth.

To meet our objectives successfully, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel, including a qualified chief executive officer, with specialized skill sets. If we are unable to hire a qualified chief executive officer or are unable to attract suitably qualified management, there could be a material adverse impact on our business. In addition, to execute our continuing growth plans, we need to increase the size and maintain the quality of our sales force, software development staff and our professional services organization. To meet our objectives successfully, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel with specialized skill sets focused on the nonprofit industry. Competition for qualified personnel can be intense, and we might not be successful in attracting and retaining them. The pool of qualified personnel with experience working with or selling to nonprofit organizations is limited overall and specifically in Charleston, South Carolina, where our principal office is located. Our ability to maintain and expand our sales, product development and professional services teams will depend on our ability to recruit, train and retain top quality people with advanced skills who understand sales to, and the specific needs of, nonprofit organizations. For these reasons, we have from time to time in the past experienced, and we expect to continue to experience in the future, difficulty in hiring and retaining highly skilled employees with appropriate qualifications for our business. In addition, it takes time for our new sales and services personnel to become productive, particularly with respect to obtaining and supporting major customer accounts. In particular,

Index to Financial Statements

we plan to continue to increase the number of services personnel to attempt to meet the needs of our customers and potential new customers. In addition to hiring services personnel to meet our needs, weWe might also engage additional third-party consultants as contractors, which could have a negative impact on our earnings. If we are unable to hire or retain qualified personnel, or if newly hired personnel fail to develop the necessary skills or reach productivity slower than anticipated, it would be more difficult for us to sell our products and services, we could experience a shortfall in revenue or earnings and not achieve our planned growth.

Further, in the past, we have used equity incentive programs as part of our overall employee compensation arrangements to both attract and retain personnel. A decline in our stock price could negatively impact the value of these equity incentive and related compensation programs as retention and recruiting tools. We may need to create new or additional equity incentive programs and/or compensation packages to remain competitive, which could be dilutive to our existing stockholders and/or adversely affect our results of operations.

If we do not successfully address the risks inherent in the expansion of our international operations, our business could suffer.
We currently have operations in Canada, United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Australia and Asia, and we intend to expand further into international markets. We have limited experience in international operations and might not be able to compete effectively in international markets. Our international offices generated revenues of approximately $61.0 million, $53.6 million and $44.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Accordingly, international revenue increased 13.8% and 21.5% in 2012 and 2011, respectively. Expansion of our international operations will require a significant amount of attention from our management and substantial financial resources and might require us to add qualified management in these markets. Our direct sales model requires us to attract, retain and manage qualified sales personnel capable of selling into

18



markets outside the United States. In some cases, our costs of sales might increase if our customers require us to sell through local distributors.
If we are unable to grow our international operations in a cost effective and timely manner, our business and operating results could be harmed. Doing business internationally involves additional risks that could harm our operating results, including:
Difficulties associated with and costs of staffing and managing international operations;
Differing technology standards;
Difficulties in collecting accounts receivable and longer collection periods;
Political and economic instability;
Imposition of currency exchange controls;
Potentially adverse tax consequences;
Reduced protection for intellectual property rights in certain countries;
Dependence on local vendors;
Protectionist laws and business practices that favor local competition;
Compliance with multiple conflicting and changing governmental laws and regulations;
Seasonal reductions in business activity specific to certain markets;
Longer sales cycles;
Restrictions on repatriation of earnings or new taxation thereon;
Differing labor regulations;
Differing accounting rules and practices;
Restrictive privacy regulations in different countries, particularly in the European Union;
Restrictions on the export of technologies such as data security and encryption;
Compliance with U.S. laws such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and local laws prohibiting corrupt payments to government officials; and
Import and export restrictions and tariffs.
We expect that an increasing portion of our international software license, consulting services and maintenance services revenues will be denominated in foreign currencies, subjecting us to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. If we expand our international operations, exposures to gains and losses on foreign currency transactions may increase.
If our products fail to perform properly due to undetected errors or similar problems, our business could suffer.

Complex software such as ours often contains undetected errors or bugs. Such errors are frequently found after introduction of new software or enhancements to existing software. We continually introduce or acquire the rights to new products and release new versions of our products. If we detect any errors before we ship a product, we might have to delay product shipment for an extended period of time while we address the problem. We might not discover software errors that affect our new or current products or enhancements until after they are deployed, and we may need to provide enhancements to correct such errors. Therefore, it is possible that, despite testing by us, errors may occur in our software. These errors could result in:

harmHarm to our reputation;

lostLost sales;

delaysDelays in commercial release;

productProduct liability claims;

delays in or loss of market acceptance of our products;

licenseLicense terminations or renegotiations; and

unexpectedUnexpected expenses and diversion of resources to remedy errors.


19



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

Our failure to obtain licenses for third-party technologies could harm our business.

We expect to continue licensing technologies from third parties, including applications used in our research and development activities, technologies which are integrated into our products and products that we resell. Although we believe that the loss of any third-party technologies currently integrated into our products would not have a material adverse effect on our business, this might change in the future. Our inability in the future to obtain any third-party licenses on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, could delay future product development until equivalent technology can be identified, licensed or developed and integrated. This inability in turn would harm our business and operating results. Our use of third-party technologies exposes us to increased risks including, but not limited to, risks associated with the integration of new technology into our products, the diversion of our resources from development of our own proprietary technology and our inability to generate revenue from licensed technology sufficient to offset associated acquisition and maintenance costs.

Index to Financial Statements

We rely upon trademark, copyright, patent and trade secret laws to protect our proprietary rights, which might not provide us with adequate protection.

Our success and ability to compete dependdepends to a significant degree upon the protection of our software and other proprietary technology rights. We might not be successful in protecting our proprietary technology and our proprietary rights might not provide us with a meaningful competitive advantage. To protect our core proprietary technology, we rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws, as well as nondisclosure agreements, each of which affords only limited protection. We currently do not have patents issued for any of our proprietary technology and we only recently filed patent applications relating to a number of such products. Moreover, we have no patent protection for The Raiser’sRaiser's Edge, which is one of our core products and responsible for a significant portion of our revenue. Any inability to protect our intellectual property rights could seriously harm our business, operating results and financial condition. It is possible that:

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

anyAny patents issued to us may not be timely or broad enough to protect our proprietary rights;

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

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

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

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

We currently have operations in Canada, United Kingdom, Netherlands and Australia, and we intend to expand further into international markets. We have limited experience in international operations and may not be able to compete effectively in international markets. Our international offices generated revenues of approximately $39.7 million, $40.3 million and $36.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Accordingly, international revenue decreased 1.5% in 2009 and increased 11.3% in 2008. Expansion of our international operations will require a significant amount of attention from our management and substantial financial resources and may require us to add qualified management in these markets. Our direct sales model requires us to attract, retain and manage qualified sales personnel capable of selling into markets outside the United States. In some cases, our costs of sales might increase if our customers require us to sell through local distributors.

If we are unable to grow our international operations in a cost effective and timely manner, our business and operating results could be harmed. Doing business internationally involves additional risks that could harm our operating results, including:

Restrictions in our revolving credit facility may limit our activities, including dividend payments, share repurchases and acquisitions.

At December 31, 2009 we had no borrowings under our revolving credit facility, however, we may draw on our revolving credit facility from time to time to help us meet our short-term financial needs.

Our revolving credit facility contains restrictions, including covenants limiting our ability to incur additional debt, grant liens, make acquisitions and other investments, prepay specified debt, consolidate, merge or acquire other businesses, sell assets, pay dividends and other distributions, repurchase stock and enter into transactions with affiliates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to remain in compliance with the covenants to which we are subject in the future and, if we fail to do so, that we will be able to obtain waivers from our lenders or amend the covenants.

In the event of a default under our credit facility, we could be required to immediately repay all outstanding borrowings, which we might not be able to do. In addition, certain of our material domestic subsidiaries have guaranteedwill be required to guarantee amounts borrowed under the credit facility, and we have pledged the shares of certain of our subsidiaries as collateral for our obligations under the credit facility. Any such default could have a material adverse effect on our ability to operate, including allowing lenders under the credit facility to enforce the guarantees of our subsidiaries, if any, or exercise their rights with respect to the shares pledged as collateral.

Our business and financial performance could be negatively impacted by changes in tax laws or regulations.
We and our customers are subject to a wide variety of tax laws and regulations in jurisdictions around the world.  In response to recent economic challenges, we anticipate that many of the jurisdictions in which we and our customers do business will review tax and other revenue raising laws and regulations. New income, sales, use or other tax laws, statutes, rules, regulations or ordinances could be enacted at any time. Further, existing tax laws, statutes, rules, regulations or ordinances could be interpreted, changed, modified or applied adversely to us or our customers. Any changes to these existing tax laws could adversely affect our domestic and international business operations, and our business and financial performance. Additionally, these events could require us or our customers to pay additional tax amounts on a prospective or retroactive basis, as well as require us or our customers to pay fines and/or penalties and interest for past amounts deemed to be due. Additionally, new, changed, modified or newly interpreted or applied tax laws could increase our customers' and our compliance, operating and other costs, as well as the costs of our products. Further, these events could decrease the capital we have available to operate our business. Any or all of these events could adversely impact our business and financial performance.
We have recorded a significant deferred tax asset, and we might never realize the full value of our deferred tax asset, which would result in a charge against our earnings.

In connection with the initial acquisition of our common stock as part of our recapitalization in 1999, we recorded approximately $107.0 million as a deferred tax asset. OurAs of December 31, 2012, we have deferred tax asset balanceassets recognized of $61.3$87.8 million, of which $35.9$13.7 million relates to our 1999 recapitalization, was approximately 20% of our total assets as of December 31, 2009.

recapitalization.

Realization of our deferred tax asset is dependent upon our generating sufficient taxable income in future years to realize the tax benefit from that asset. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at least annually for realizability. A charge against our earnings would result if, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. This could be caused by, among other things, deterioration

Index to Financial Statements

in performance, loss of key contracts, adverse market conditions, adverse changes in applicable laws or regulations, including changes that restrict the activities of or affect the products sold by our business and a variety of other factors. If a deferred tax asset was determined to be not realizable in a future period, the charge to earnings would be recognized as an expense in our results of operations in the period the determination is made.

Additionally, if we are unable to utilize our deferred tax assets, our cash flow available to fund operations could be adversely effected.

Depending on future circumstances, it is possible that we might never realize the full value of our deferred tax asset. Any future determination of impairment of a significant portion of our deferred tax asset would have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our ability to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards may be limited.

Included in our deferred tax asset balance is $17.3$26.9 million related to federal net operating loss carryforwards which is approximately 6% of our total assets at December 31, 2009.2012. Our federal net operating loss carryforwards are subject to limitations on how much may be utilized on an annual basis. The use of the net operating loss carryforwards may have additional limitations resulting from certain future ownership changes or other factors under Section 382 ofset forth in the Internal Revenue Code. If our net operating loss carryforwards are further limited, and we have taxable income which exceeds the available net operating loss carryforwards for that period, we would incur an income tax liability even though net operating loss carryforwards may be available in future years prior to their expiration, which would have an adverse affecteffect on our future cash flow, financial condition and results of operations.

Our acquisition of Convio might not be ableaccretive and might cause dilution to implementthe combined company's earnings per share, which could negatively impact the price of our common stock.
We currently anticipate that our acquisition of Convio will be accretive to the non-GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”) of the combined company during the first full calendar year after the acquisition is completed. This expectation is based on preliminary estimates of certain synergies expected to be realized by the combined company during such time, including the elimination of Convio's expenses related to operating unit reorganization successfully.

Effective January 1, 2010, we reorganizedas a publicly traded company and excluding the impact of merger-related expenses. Such estimates and assumptions could materially change due to the failure to realize any or all of the benefits expected in the acquisition or other factors beyond our business into three operating units to better align our organization around key customer groups.

We have completed significant acquisitions over the Target Companies and eTapestry.past five years including, most recently, our acquisition of Convio. Managing and integrating the operations and personnel of an acquired company can be a complex process. The integration might not be completed rapidly or achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition. The successful integration of the acquired companies will require, among other things, coordination of various departments, including product development, engineering, sales and marketing and finance. Further, a successful integration of the acquired companies internal control structure will be required. The diversion of the attention of management and any difficulties encountered in this process could cause the disruption of, or a loss of momentum in, sales or product development.

retain their engineering, sales, marketing, development and other personnel. It is possible that these employees might decide to terminate their employment. If key employees terminate their employment, the sales, marketing or development activities of acquired companies might be adversely affected, our management's attention might be diverted from successfully integrating the acquired operations and to hiring suitable replacements and, as a result, our business might suffer.

Future acquisitions could prove difficult to integrate, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and strain our resources.

As part of our business strategy, we have made acquisitions in the past, and, we might acquire additional companies, services and technologies that we feel could complement or expand our business, augment our market coverage, enhance our technical capabilities, provide us with important customer contacts or otherwise offer growth opportunities. Acquisitions and investments involve numerous risks, including:

difficultiesDifficulties in integrating operations, technologies, services, accounting and personnel;

difficultiesDifficulties in supporting and transitioning customers of our acquired companies;

diversionDiversion of financial and management resources from existing operations;

risksRisks of entering new sectors of the nonprofit industry;

potentialPotential loss of key employees; and

inabilityInability to generate sufficient revenue to offset acquisition or investment costs.

return on investment.

Acquisitions also frequently result in recording of goodwill and other intangible assets, which are subject to potential impairments in the future that could harm our operating results. In addition, if we finance acquisitions by issuing equity securities or securities convertible into equity securities, our existing stockholders would be diluted which, in turn, could affect the market price of our stock. Moreover, we could finance any acquisition with debt, resulting in higher leverage and interest costs. As a result, if we fail to evaluate and execute acquisitions or investments properly, we might not achieve the anticipated benefits of any such acquisition and we may incur costs in excess of what we anticipate.

Furthermore, if we incur additional debt to fund acquisitions and are unable to service our debt obligation we may have a greater risk of default under our credit facility.

If we are not able to manage our anticipated growth effectively, our operating costs may increase and our operating margins may decrease.
We will need to continue to grow our infrastructure to address our acquisition of Convio and other potential market opportunities. Our growth will continue to place, to the extent that we are able to sustain such growth, a strain on our management, administrative, operational and financial infrastructure. If we continue to grow our operations, by way of additional business combinations or otherwise, we may not be effective in enlarging our physical facilities and our systems and our procedures or controls may not be adequate to support such expansion or our business generally. If we are unable to manage our growth, our operating costs may increase and our operating margins may decrease.

Increasing government regulation could affect our business.

We are subject, not only to regulations applicable to businesses generally, but also to laws and regulations directly applicable to electronic commerce and other regulations. Although there are currently few such laws and regulations, state, federal and foreign governments may adopt laws and regulations applicable to our business. Any such legislation or regulation could dampen the growth of the Internet and decrease its acceptance. If such a decline occurs, companies may decide in the future not to use our products and services. Any new laws or regulations in the following areas could affect our business:

userUser privacy;

thePayment processing;

The pricing and taxation of goods and services offered over the Internet;

theTaxation of foreign earnings;

The content of websites;

copyrights;

Copyrights;

consumerConsumer protection, including the potential application of “do not call” registry requirements on our customers and consumer backlash in general to direct marketing efforts of our customers;

theThe online distribution of specific material or content over the Internet; and

theThe characteristics and quality of products and services offered over the Internet.

Pending and enacted legislation at the state and federal levels, including those related to fundraising activities, may also restrict further our information gathering and disclosure practices, for example, by requiring us to comply with extensive and costly registration, reporting or disclosure requirements.

Our operations might be affected by the occurrence of a natural disaster or other catastrophic event.

We depend on our principal executive offices and other facilities for the continued operation of our business. Although we have contingency plans in effect for natural disasters or other catastrophic events, these events, including terrorist attacks and natural disasters such as earthquakes and hurricanes, could disrupt our operations. Even though we carry business interruption insurance policies and typically have provisions in our contracts that protect us in certain events, we might suffer losses as a result of business interruptions that exceed the coverage available under our insurance policies or for which we do not have coverage. Any natural disaster or catastrophic event affecting us could have a significant negative impact on our operations.

Dividend policy and restrictions

Our Board of Directors has adopted a dividend policy which reflects an intention to distribute to our stockholders a portion of the cash generated by our business that exceeds our operating needs and capital expenditures as regular quarterly dividends. This policy reflects our judgment that we can provide greater value to our stockholders by distributing to them a portion of the cash generated by our business.

In accordance with this dividend policy, we paid quarterly dividends at an annual rate of $0.40$0.48 per share in 20092012 and 2008,2011, resulting in an aggregate dividend payment to stockholders of $17.7$21.7 million and $17.5$21.4 million in 20092012 and 2008,2011, respectively. In February 2010,2013, our Board of Directors approved an annual dividend rate of $0.44$0.48 per share for 2010.2013. We declared a first quarter dividend of $0.11$0.12 per share payable on March 15, 20102013, to stockholders of record on February 26, 2010,28, 2013, and currently intend to pay quarterly dividends at an annual rate of $0.44$0.48 per share of common stock for each of the remaining fiscal quarters in 2010.2013. Dividends at this rate would total approximately $19.4$22.1 million in the aggregate on the common stock in 20102013 (assuming 44.046.0 million shares of common stock are outstanding, net of treasury stock).

Dividends on our common stock will not be cumulative. Consequently, if dividends on our common stock are not declared and/or paid at the targeted level, our stockholders will not be entitled to receive such payments in the future. We are not obligated to pay dividends, and as described more fully below, our stockholders might not receive any dividends as a result of the following factors:

ourOur credit facility limits the amount of dividends we are permitted to pay;

ourOur Board of Directors could decide to reduce dividends or not to pay dividends at all, at any time and for any reason;

theThe amount of dividends distributed is subject to state law restrictions; and

weWe might not have enough cash to pay dividends due to changes to our operating earnings, working capital requirements and anticipated cash needs.

Assumptions and considerations

We estimate that the cash necessary to fund dividends on our common stock for 20102013 at an annual rate of $0.44$0.48 per share is approximately $19.4$22.1 million (assuming 44.046.0 million shares of common stock are outstanding, net of treasury stock).

Index to Financial Statements

In May 2008, our Board of Directors approved

We have a new stock repurchase program that authorizedauthorizes us to purchase up to $40$50.0 million of our outstanding shares of common stock. The prior program was terminated at that date and the remaining balance that was authorized but not used under the prior stock repurchase program was included in the amount authorized under the new program. The new program does not have an expiration date. The shares could be purchased in conjunction with a public offering offor our stock, from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions depending upon market conditions and other factors, all in accordance with the requirements of applicable law. As of February 12, 2010, we had purchased 520,423 shares of common stock for $9.2 million pursuant to this program. Any open market purchases under the repurchase program will be made in compliance with Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and all other applicable securities regulations. We might not purchase any additional shares of common stock and our Board of Directors may decide, in its absolute discretion, at any time and for any reason, to cancel the stock repurchase program.

We believe that our cash on hand and the cash flows we expect to generate from operations will be sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements through 2010,2013, including dividends and purchases under our stock repurchase program. See “Management’s discussion and analysis of financial conditions and results of operations—operations — Liquidity and capital resources” in this report.

If our assumptions as to operating expenses, working capital requirements and capital expenditures are too low or if unexpected cash needs arise that we are not able to fund with cash on hand or with borrowings under our credit facility, we would need to either reduce or eliminate dividends. If we were to use working capital or permanent borrowings to fund dividends, we would have less cash available for future dividends and other purposes, which could negatively impact our stock price, financial condition, results of operations and ability to maintain or expand our business.

We have estimated our dividend only for 2010,2013, and we cannot assure our stockholders that during or following such periods that we will pay dividends at the estimated levels, or at all. We are not required to pay dividends and our Board of Directors may modify or revoke our dividend policy at any time. Dividend payments are within the absolute discretion of our Board of Directors and will be dependent upon many factors and future developments that could differ materially from our current expectations. Indeed, over time our capital and other cash needs, including unexpected cash needs, will invariably change and remain subject to uncertainties, which could impact the level of any dividends we pay in the future.

We believe that our dividend policy could limit, but not preclude, our ability to pursue growth as we intend to retain sufficient cash after the distribution of dividends to permit the pursuit of growth opportunities that do not require material capital investments. In order to pay dividends at the level currently anticipated under our dividend policy and to fund any substantial portion of our stock repurchase program, we expect that we could require financing or borrowings to fund any significant acquisitions or to pursue growth opportunities requiring capital expenditures significantly beyond our anticipated capital expenditure levels. Management will evaluate potential growth opportunities as they arise and, if our Board of Directors determines that it is in our best interest to use cash that would otherwise be available for distribution as dividends to pursue an acquisition opportunity, to materially increase capital spending or for some other purpose, the Board would be free to depart from or change our dividend policy at any time.

Restrictions on payment of dividends

Under Delaware law, we can only pay dividends either out of “surplus” (which is defined as total assets at fair market value minus total liabilities, minus statutory capital) or out of current or the immediately preceding year’s earnings. As of December 31, 2009,2012, we had approximately $22.8$13.5 million in cash and cash equivalents. In addition, we anticipate that we will have sufficient earnings in 20102013 to pay dividends at the level described above. Although we believe we will have sufficient surplus and earnings to pay dividends at the anticipated levels for 2010,2013, our Board of Directors will seek periodically to assure itself of this sufficiency before actually declaring any dividends.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

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 Item 1.A Risk Factors and our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements reflect our current view with respect to future events and financial performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those set forth under “Cautionary statement” included in this “Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations”“Item 1.A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical or anticipated results.

Except as required by law, we do not intend, and undertake no obligation to revise or update these forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.

Executive summary

We are the leading global provider ofprovide on-premise and cloud-based software solutions and related services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations. Our products and services enable nonprofit organizations to increase donations, reduce fundraising costs, improve communications with constituents, manage their finances and optimize internal operations. We have focused solely on the nonprofit market since our incorporation in 1982 and have developed our suiteAs of products and services based upon our extensive knowledge of the operating challenges facing nonprofit organizations. At the end of 2009,December 31, 2012, we had approximately 22,000more than 27,000 active customers. Our customers operate indistributed across multiple verticals within the nonprofit market including education, foundations, health and human services, religion, arts and cultural, public and societal benefits, environment and animal welfare andas well as international foreign affairs.

We derive revenue from selling perpetual licenses or charging for the use of our software products in a hosted environment and providing a broad offering of services, including consulting, training, installation and implementation services, as well as ongoing customer support and maintenance. Consulting, training and implementation are generally not essential to the functionality of our software products and are sold separately. Furthermore, we derive revenue from providing hosting services, performing donor prospect research engagements, selling lists of potential donors, and providing transaction processing services, benchmarking studies and data modeling services.

Revenue

We completed our acquisition of Convio in May 2012 for 2009$335.7 million in consideration. We funded the acquisition through both cash on hand and borrowings under our amended credit facility. During 2012, we remained focused on:
integrating the Convio operations and managing expenses to enable us to realize synergies while making investments for future growth of our combined operations;
making initial post-merger product roadmap decisions, which included the decision to sunset the Convio Common Ground solution and our move to a single event fundraising module; and
continuing the shift in our offerings towards subscription-based pricing to meet the needs and preferences of our customers.
Overall, revenue in 2012 increased 2%21% compared to 2008. The inclusion of Kintera, which we acquired in July 2008, resulted in an increase in revenue of $16.1 million for 2009. Excluding the impact of Kintera, revenue decreased by 3% for 2009 when compared to 2008.2011. When removing the impact of foreign currency translation,revenue from acquired companies, revenue increased by 4% when comparing 2009 to 2008. Further, when removing6% during 2012. This increase was principally the impactresult of foreign currency translation and the impact from Kintera,continued growth in our subscriptions revenue decreased by 2% when comparing 2009 to 2008.

Our selling environment remained challenging during 2009 as difficult and uncertain economic conditions continued to put pressure on the spending of many organizations in the nonprofit industry. Revenues associated with our perpetual license offerings and related services decreased compared to 2008 as a result of these economic conditions and reduced marketan increase in demand for these offerings. However, our recurring revenue, which is comprised of maintenance services and subscriptionsubscription-based offerings continued to experience growth during 2009. Revenue from maintenance services and subscription offerings, which represented approximately 61% of our revenue on a combined basis, grew 21% in 2009 compared to 2008. Approximately half of this revenue growth is attributable to Kintera and the remaining growth is principally the result ofas our business increasingly evolvingshifts towards product sales on a subscription basis. We believe this trend will continuehosted solutions as well as an increase in transaction fees associated with our payment processing services. Maintenance revenue also contributed to the future.

In 2009, we focused on closely managing our operating expensesincrease in revenue from maintaining high renewal rates, new maintenance contracts associated with new license arrangements and achieving our targeted level of profitability. existing client increases.

Income from operations for 20092012 decreased by $1.6$31.5 million when compared to 2008. During 2009,2011. The decrease was attributable to: (i) a $23.1 million increase in costs associated with our acquisition of Convio related to transaction costs, integration and restructuring costs, amortization of acquired intangibles from business combinations and stock-based compensation expense; (ii) a $4.3 million increase in costs related to strategic investments we have made in our business optimization efforts and the re-engineering of our accounting processes; and (iii) an increase of $8.3 million in hosting costs due to incremental investments to improve our hosting services and additional hosting capacity required as a result of the growth in demand for our hosted applications and other online services. Also contributing to the decrease in income from operations is primarily attributablewas our continued shift from a license-based model with upfront revenue recognition to a subscription-based model, which recognizes revenue ratably over the agreement term. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in stock based compensation expense, amortization expense associated with intangible assetsgross margin from our recent acquisitions and research and development expense to support our continuing product investment.

On April 29, 2009, we acquired RLC Customer Centric Technology B.V. (RLC)2010, a privately held limited company based in the Netherlands. The acquisition of RLC provides us with a foundation to expand into the Netherlands and other Western European markets.

During 2008 and 2007, we acquired companies that provided us with a strategic opportunityopportunities to expand our share of the nonprofit market with SaaS and subscription offerings, and through the integration of complimentarycomplementary products and services to serve the changing needs of our customers. FollowingThe following are the companies we acquired during 2008 and 2007 and their respective acquisition date:

We have noted in the discussion below, to the extent meaningful, the impact on the comparability of our consolidated results of operations due to the inclusion of the acquired companies for only a partial year in the year of acquisition.
From the date of acquisition through December 31, 2012, Convio's total revenue was $50.7 million. Because we have integrated a substantial amount of the Convio operations, it is impracticable to determine the operating costs attributable solely to the acquired business.

We derive revenue from subscriptions and maintenance services. The increase in maintenance revenue is principally from new maintenance contracts with associated with new license agreements and existing client increases. Subscription revenue increased 35%, excluding the impact of our acquisitions, due to an increase in demand for our hosting and other online data services.

Segment results

Through December 31, 2009, we analyzed our business according to our six operating segments as identified in Note 14 of our consolidated financial statements, which are license fees consulting and education services, analytic services, maintenance, subscriptions and other. The analyses provided below are presented on a non-GAAP basis before the inclusion of various allocable corporate costs such as depreciation, facilities and information technology (IT) support costs, stock-based compensation and amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations because, in managing our operations, we believe that the exclusion of these costs allows us to better understand and manage our operating expenses and cash needs. These excluded costs are analyzed separately following the segment results analysis.

Revenue from license fees is derived from the sale of our software products, under a perpetual license agreement. The decrease in license fee revenue during 2009 when compared to 2008 and during 2008 when compared to 2007 is principally attributable to longer sales cycle times, delays and postponement of purchasing decisions and overall caution exercised by existing and prospective customers as a result of continued challenges posed by the weak economic environment. In addition, weWe are increasingly experiencing a shift in our customers’emerging and mid-sized customers' buying preference away from solutions offered under perpetual license agreementsarrangements towards subscription-based hosted applications.

During 2009,applications, while our large and/or strategic customers continue to be an area of growth, particularly as it relates to our Blackbaud CRM offering. Our larger perpetual license feetransactions have long sales cycles, and their timing can result in significant period-to-period variations. Revenue from license fees increased in 2012 primarily due to a greater contribution of revenue decreased by $10.5 millionfrom larger Blackbaud CRM arrangements when compared to 2008. Sales from license fees to new customers decreased $4.2 million and sales to existing clients decreased by $6.3 million. Additionally, during 2009, revenue related to our Enterprise CRM offering grew by $3.7 million, which was offset by decreases in our other perpetual license product offerings of $14.2 million.

During 2008, sales from license fees to new customers decreased by $2.9 million when compared to 2007, offset by an increase to existing customers of $1.3 million.

The increasedecrease in cost of license fees for 2009in 2012 when compared to 2008 and 2008 when compared to 20072011 is primarilyprincipally attributable to a decrease in third-party software royalties. Third-party software royalties associated with our license-based products have decreased as the demand for our perpetual license arrangements has decreased and subscription-based offerings has increased.
The increase in license fees gross margin during 2012 is the result of fewer sales of products that have third party software royalty costs associated with them. Additionally, the increase in revenue from Blackbaud CRM arrangements contributed to the increase in license fees gross margin during 2012.

Consulting to our customers. The increase in cost of subscriptions in 2012 is principally attributable to increases in hosting costs, human resource costs and educationamortization of intangibles from business combinations.

Hosting costs increased by $8.3 million during 2012 as a result of incremental costs due to the inclusion of acquired companies. Additionally, hosting costs increased due to incremental investments to improve our hosting services and additional hosting capacity required as a result of the growth in demand for our hosted applications and other online services. Human resource costs increased $6.6 million during 2012. The increase in human resource costs is attributable to additional headcount due to the inclusion of acquired companies and additional resources needed to support the growth in demand for our subscription-based offerings.
Amortization of intangibles from business combinations increased $8.6 million in 2012 primarily due to the amortization expense for the acquired Convio intangible assets.
The decrease in subscriptions gross margin during 2012 compared to 2011 is primarily due to investments we are making in our infrastructure, including additional headcount, expanded facilities, improved operational processes and computer equipment to support the growth in our subscription offerings.

We derive services revenue consists offrom consulting, installation, implementation, education and educationanalytic services. Consulting, installation and implementation services involve converting data from a customer’s existing system, assistance in file set up and system configuration, and/or process re-engineering. Education services involve customer training activities.

During 2009, consulting and education services revenue decreased $12.4 million when compared to 2008. The inclusion of Kintera for a full year in 2009 compared to a partial year in 2008 accounted for $0.6 million of an increase in consulting and education services revenue. Included in consulting and education services revenue in 2009 is $0.7 million of revenue attributable to RLC. The decrease in revenue is principally the result of decreased volume of consulting, installation and implementation services delivered for our core software products and decreased demand for training services as existing and prospective customers continue to experience budgetary constraints associated with the challenges posed by the overall economic environment. To a lesser extent, the decrease in revenue is attributable to a reduction in the rates we charge as a result of a higher level of discounts offered on our service offerings during 2009 compared to 2008. During 2009, these decreases of $17.0 million were partially offset by an increase of $4.6 million in consulting services associated with our Enterprise CRM product offering and our internet-based products.

During 2008, consulting and education services revenue increased by $4.5 million when compared to 2007, of which $1.9 million is attributable to Kintera and eTapestry. The rates charged for our service offerings remained relatively constant year over year and, as such, the increase in revenue in 2008 is principally the result of increased volume of services provided. The increase in volume of services provided is principally due to an increase in the demand in consulting services associated with our new Enterprise CRM product offerings and our internet based products.

Cost of consulting and education services is principally comprised of human resource costs, third-party contractor expenses, classroom rentals and other costs incurred in providing consulting, installation and implementation services and customer training.

During 2009, cost of consulting and education services decreased by $2.6 million. Human resource costs related to additional headcount attributable to Kintera and RLC increased cost of consulting and education services by $2.4 million. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, the remaining decrease in cost of consulting and education services of $5.0 million during 2009 is primarily due to a reduction in travel-related expenses, recruiting and other costs.

During 2008, cost of consulting and education services increased by $5.6 million, of which $2.2 million is attributable to the inclusion of human resource costs associated with Kintera and eTapestry. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, the remaining increase of $3.4 million is primarily attributable to human resource cost increases as a result of increased skills and competencies in our service professionals.

Item 7. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations—(Continued)

The decrease in segment margin from 2008 to 2009 is principally due to the decrease in demand for consulting and education services while the cost of consulting and education services decreased to a lesser extent. Cost of consulting and education services decreased at a lower rate than the associated revenue principally due to maintaining resource capacity for the increase in services associated with our Enterprise CRM product offerings and the expected increase in services when the economic environment improves.

The decrease in segment margin from 2007 to 2008 is primarily attributable to average billing rates for our consultants remaining relatively constant while consultant’s salaries and related human resource costs increased, and a change in the mix of the consulting and education services provided.

The increase in revenue from education services is the result of higher demand for subscription-based training. Consulting services revenue remained relatively unchanged in 2012 compared to 2011 primarily due to a greater portion of our service engagements being with larger enterprise customers as our mid-market moves to subscription-based offerings. These larger enterprise engagements can experience volatility in utilization due to the complex nature of these engagements.

Revenue from maintenance is comprised of annual fees derived from maintenance contracts associated with new software licenses and annual renewals of existing maintenance contracts. These contracts provide customers with updates, enhancements and upgrades to our software products and online, telephone and email support.

During 2009, maintenance revenue increased $9.2 million when compared to 2008.

General and administrative expense increased during 2012 primarily due to increases in acquisition transaction costs, acquisition integration and restructuring costs, acquisition-related stock-based compensation, professional fees and human resource costs. The increase in costs associated with our acquisition of Convio including transaction costs, acquisition integration and restructuring costs and stock-based compensation expense was $13.2 million during 2012.

The decrease in non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP operating margin during 2012 was principally due to: (i) the continued shift from a license-based model with upfront revenue recognition to a subscription-based model, which recognizes revenue ratably over the agreement term; (ii) incremental investments we are making in our product development efforts and as well as investments to improve the performance of our hosting services; and (iii) strategic investments we are making in our business optimization efforts and the re-engineering of our accounting processes. Contributing to the decrease in 2012 is the growth of cost of services exceeding the growth of our services revenue.

Total revenue increased $44.3 million, or 14%, in 2011 compared to 2010. This increase in revenue was primarily attributable to growth in our subscriptions and services revenue. The increase in subscriptions revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in demand for our hosted offerings, hosting services, online fundraising and data management offerings. This increase was driven by the ongoing evolution of our product offerings from a license-based to subscription-based business model. Services revenue growth was primarily due to an increase in demand for consulting services associated with our Blackbaud CRM offering and online fundraising offerings.

The increase in maintenance revenue was attributable to new maintenance contracts associated with new license agreements sold over the last twelve months and increases in contracts with existing customers. These increases were offset by a decrease in license fees which was principally attributable to a smaller contribution in 2011 from Blackbaud CRM perpetual license arrangements with upfront revenue recognition than in 2010. Additionally, we continued to experience a shift in our customers’ buying preference away from perpetual licenses towards hosted solutions.

Revenue from license fees during 2011 and 2010 was derived from the sale of our software products, under a perpetual license agreement. During 2011, we increasingly experienced a shift in our customers’ buying preference away from solutions offered under perpetual license arrangements towards subscription-based hosted applications. In addition, we continued to experience longer sales cycle times, delays and postponements of purchasing decisions and overall caution exercised by existing and prospective customers as a result of continued challenges posed by the weak economic environment. During 2011, revenue from license fees to existing customers decreased by $0.9 million and sales to new customers decreased by $3.3 million. The decrease in license fees was largely the result of a smaller contribution in 2011 from Blackbaud CRM sales with upfront revenue recognition when compared to 2010 due to credits provided to certain Blackbaud CRM early adopters.
Cost of license fees was principally comprised of third-party software royalties, variable reseller commissions, amortization of software development costs and amortization of intangibles from business combinations. The increase in cost of license fees in 2011 compared to 2010 was principally attributable to an increase in reseller commissions. A greater portion of our software license sales in 2011 were completed through our reseller channels when compared to 2010.

Revenue from subscriptions isfor 2011 and 2010 was principally comprised of revenue from providing access to hosted applications and hosting services, access to certain data services and our online subscription training offerings. In general, we are experiencingofferings, and variable transaction fees associated with the use of our products to fundraise online. Revenue from acquired companies contributed $6.2 million to the growth in subscriptions revenue during 2011. The remaining increase in subscriptions revenue during 2011 was principally attributable to the increase in demand for online fundraising offerings, data management offerings and hosting services. Additionally, revenue from our hosting services continued to increase as the demand for these services continued to grow from both our existing and new perpetual license customers. We continued to experience growth in our hosted applications business as a result of the eTapestry and Kintera acquisitions, which added experience in on-demand solutions and expanded our set of subscription services. Additionally, the growth in revenue in our subscription offerings is the result of the ongoing evolution of our product offerings from license-based to subscription-based offerings.

Subscriptions revenue increased $23.2 million during 2009 when compared to 2008. The inclusion of Kintera for a full year in 2009 compared to a partial year in 2008 accounted for $11.7 million of the increase in subscriptions revenue. Excluding the impact of the acquisition of Kintera, growth in subscriptions revenue is primarily due to the continued increase in demand for hosted applications, hosting services and other online data services and we are experiencingincreasingly experienced a shift in our customers’ buying preference away from perpetual license agreementslicenses towards subscription-based hosted applications.

Subscriptions revenue increased $24.3 million during 2008 when compared to 2007. During 2008, included in subscription revenue is $11.3 million of revenue attributable to Kintera. The inclusion of eTapestry for a full year in 2008 compared to a partial year in 2007 accounted for $5.1 million of the increase in subscriptions revenue. The remaining $7.9 million increase is attributable to organic growth from increased demand for hosting services and other online data services.

direct and incremental costs associated with consulting services revenue ratably over the same period. However, we continue to expense indirect costs in the period the implementation services are provided.
The increase in services revenue during 2011 when compared to 2010 was principally attributable to an increase in consulting services revenue of $14.4 million, analytic services of $3.8 million and education services of $2.9 million. Revenue from acquired companies represented $0.8 million of consulting services and $1.9 million of analytic services revenue growth during 2011 compared to 2010. The increase in consulting services revenue was primarily due to an increase in the demand for consulting, installation and implementation services associated with our Blackbaud CRM offering and our internet based fundraising offerings. This increase in consulting services revenue resulting from an increase in volume was partially offset by an increase in our investment, in the form of non-billable implementation hours, in early adopters of our Blackbaud CRM offering and a reduction in the rates we charged as a result of a higher level of discounts on the consulting services provided during 2011 compared to 2010. The rates we charged for our education and analytic service offerings have remained relatively constant year over year and, as such, the change in revenue was principally the result of an increase in the volume of services provided.
Cost of services was principally comprised of human resource costs, stock-based compensation expense, third-party contractor expenses, classroom rentals, other costs incurred in providing consulting, installation and implementation services and customer training, data expense incurred to perform analytic services, an allocation of depreciation, facilities and IT support costs and amortization of intangibles from business combinations.
The increase in cost of services in 2011 when compared to 2010 was primarily attributable to an increase in human resource costs and third-party contractor costs. The increase in human resource costs and third-party contractor costs was principally attributable to the need for additional resource capacity to meet the increasing consulting services demands of our customers and the additional headcount from acquired companies.
The services gross margin increased in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily as a result of an increase in demand for consulting services associated with our Blackbaud CRM offering and a shift in the mix of consulting engagements to higher margin projects.

Revenue from maintenance for 2011 and 2010 was comprised of annual fees derived from maintenance contracts associated with new software licenses and annual renewals of existing maintenance contracts. These contracts provide customers with updates, enhancements and upgrades to our software products and online, telephone and email support. During 2011, the increase in maintenance revenue was principally comprised of $11.3 million of maintenance from new customers associated with new license agreements and increases in contracts with existing customers and $3.8 million from maintenance contract inflationary rate adjustments, offset by $9.1 million from maintenance contracts that were not renewed.
Cost of maintenance for 2011 and 2010 was primarily comprised of human resource costs, stock-based compensation expense, third-party contractor expenses, third-party royalty costs, an allocation of depreciation, facilities and IT support costs, amortization of intangibles from business combinations and other costs incurred in providing support and services to our customers. The increase in cost of maintenance in 2011 when compared to 2010 was principally attributable to an increase in human resource costs of $1.5 million partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in third-party royalty costs and $0.2 million decrease in amortization of intangibles from business combinations. Human resource costs increased due to salary merit increases and an increase in headcount associated with the continued growth in our customer support function commensurate with maintenance revenue growth. Additionally, we continued to experience a shift to higher skilled support resources that carry a higher cost to meet the needs of our enterprise customers.

The increase in corporate overhead costs allocated toamortization of intangibles from business combinations. In total, cost of other revenue in 20092011 when compared to 2008 is primarily attributable2010 decreased by $0.1 million due to thea reduction in user conference expenses offset by an increase in depreciation expense of $0.3 million as a result of property and equipment purchases and $0.4 million ofreimbursable expenses.

Other gross margin increased IT support costs.

The increase in corporate overhead costs in 20082011 when compared to 2007 is primarily the result of2010 due to an increase in depreciation of $0.7 million asrevenue from third-party software referral fees and a result of property and equipment purchases. Additionally, facilities expense increased $1.7 million primarily as a result of locations added in connection with the Kintera and eTapestry acquisitions and additional office space leased. IT support costs decreased $0.7 million due to reduced maintenance cost on internally used software.

During 2009,2011, sales and marketing expense decreased $2.4increased by $5.9 million when compared to 2008. The inclusion2010 primarily due to an increase of $3.6 million in human resource costs and other$2.0 million in commission expense. The increase in human resource costs was a result of additional headcount to support the increase in selling and marketing efforts of our growing operations. The increase in commission expense was principally attributable to Kintera for a full year in 2009 compared to a partial year in 2008 accounted for $2.8 million of an increase in sales and marketing expense. Excluding the sales and marketing expense increase attributable to Kintera, sales and marketing expense decreased $5.2 million. The decrease is primarily attributable to a reduction in travel-related expenses, corporate allocated costs and other sales and marketing related costs of $2.1 million. Additionally, commission expense decreased by $2.4 million due to lower commissionable revenue in 2011. Additionally, marketing programs increased by $0.3 million relating to the launch of our new corporate branding and human resource costs decreased by $0.7 million due to a reduction in headcount.

Thean increase in sales and marketing expense in 2008 compared to 2007 is principally due to increases in our sales force and the inclusion of sales and marketing costs of acquired companies. During 2008, human resource costs increased $5.9 million, of which $3.2 million is due to the inclusion of human resources associated with Kintera and eTapestry. Other increases include higher travel costs, allocated costs and other marketing related costs of $1.5 million.

During 2011, human resource and third-party costs increased by $3.0 million partially offset by an increase in the amount of software development costs that were capitalized of $0.8 million. Human resource and third-party contractor costs increased as we continued to invest in our product development efforts. The increase in amount of costs that are capitalized was primarily due to development efforts with our events management solution.

Research and development costs increased in 2009 when compared to 2008 principally due to an increase in headcount associated with increased investment in our products. During 2009, the increase in research and development costs is principally the result of an increase in human resource costs of $5.8 million, $3.2 million of which is attributable to inclusion of Kintera for a full year in 2009 compared to a partial year in 2008. Further increases of $0.6 million are attributable to higher allocated costs, partially offset by decreased travel and recruiting costs.

During 2008 when compared to 2007, the increase in research and development costs is primarily due to a $7.6 million increase in human resource costs resulting from an increase in headcount and increased investment in our products, of which $3.4 million is due to the inclusion of Kintera and eTapestry. Further increases of $1.1 million are attributable to higher allocated costs and $0.3 million higher travel and other costs.

Interest expense
Interest expense increased $5.7 million during 2012 when compared to 2011. This increase in interest expense is comprised of expense from common stock awards, stock options, restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights.

There were no similar arrangements payable in common stock in 2007. May 2012.

Income tax provision
The decrease in compensation expense from stock options in 2009 compared to 2008 and 2008 compared to 2007following is the result of using the accelerated method for recognizing stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options, which results in the recognition of more expense in the earlier periods of vesting when compared with the straight-line method. We have not granted stock options since 2005 and all historical awards will be fully vested in 2010.

Stock-based compensation expense from restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights increased in 2009 compared to 2008 and 2008 compared to 2007 due to the issuance of additional grants and rights in 2009 and 2008, offset by the partial vesting of grants issued in prior years.

The increaseseffective rate in amortization expense for 2009 compared to 2008 and 2008 compared to 2007 are directly attributable to the acquisitions of the Target Companies, eTapestry and Kintera. Identifiable intangible assets of $16.9 million and $32.8 million were recorded during 2008 and 2007, respectively, related to the acquisition of these companies.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased $0.6 million in 20092012 increased when compared to 2008. The decrease is2011 primarily relateddue to the timing of payments and the duration of borrowings under our credit facility. Additionally, a decrease in our effective interest rate contributedpre-tax income, reduction in federal research and development credits and nondeductible transaction costs associated with the Convio acquisition. In January 2013, the federal research and development credit was reinstated with retrospective application to the decrease2012 tax year. Our estimated 2012 tax credit will be recorded as a discrete benefit in interest expense.

Interest expense increased $0.4 million in 2008 when compared to 2007. The increase is primarily related to the timing and amountfirst quarter of borrowings under our credit facility, offset by a decrease in our effective interest rate. During 2008 and 2007, we utilized borrowings under our credit facility for short-term financial needs such as funding business acquisitions and share repurchases. However, in 2008 we carried outstanding debt for a longer period, as compared to 2007.

Income tax provision

We record income tax expense in our consolidated financial statements based on an estimated annual effective income tax rate. We had an effective tax rate of 37.7%, 35.3%, and 38.5% in 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.2013. The effective tax rate in 2008 was lower2011 decreased when compared to 2009 because2010 due to the change in our valuation allowances.

In order to pay any cash dividends and/or repurchase shares of stock: (1) no default or event of default shall have occurred and be continuing under the credit facility, and (2) we must be in compliance with the leverage ratio set forth in the credit agreement. At December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with all debt covenants under our credit facility.
At December 31, 2012, our total cash and cash equivalents balance includes approximately $4.7 million of cash that was held by operations outside the U.S. While these funds may not be needed to fund our U.S. operations for at least the next 12 months, if we need these funds, we would be required to accrue and pay taxes to repatriate the funds. Our current plans anticipate repatriating undistributed earnings in Canada. We currently do not anticipate a need to repatriate our other cash held outside the U.S.
Operating cash flow

Net cash provided by operating activities of $86.8$68.7 million increased $26.5 decreased by $16.8 million when compared to 2008 primarily due to a decrease in income tax payments of $13.6 million principally attributable to fluctuations in the timing of payments. during 2012. Throughout both years,2012 and 2011, our cash flows from operations were derived principally from: (i) our earnings from on-going operations prior to non-cash expenses such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation and adjustments to our provision for sales

returns and allowances; (ii) the tax benefit associated with our deferred tax asset, which reduces our cash outlay for income tax expense; and (iii) changes in our working capital.

Working capital changes as they impact the statement of cash flows are composed of changes in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses accruedand other liabilities and deferred revenue. Net collections of accounts receivable and increases in deferred revenue represent a net increase in cashCash flow from operations associated with working capital changes of $14.6decreased $8.9 million and $9.2 million in 2009 and 2008, respectively. The year-over-year increase2012 when compared to 2011. This net decrease is principally due to the reduced billings related to slower sales growth when comparing 2009 to 2008. Changes in our balances of accounts payable, prepaid expenses, accrued liabilities and other current assets represent a net increase in cash associated with working capital changes of $2.4 million in 2009, compared to a net decrease of $12.9 million in 2008. The primary driver of this change is (i) a reduction in prepaid expenses principally attributable to the receipt of $4.5 million in income tax refunds and (ii) an increase in the amount of cash paid for income taxes, payable and other accrued liabilities principally attributable to fluctuations in the timing of payments.

Investing cash flow

Net cash used in 20092012 for investing activities was $7.8$302.5 million compared to $56.0$41.7 million of net cash used in 2008. The decrease in cash used in investing activities is principally due to a decrease in net cash used for acquisitions. We invested $5.5 million in property and equipment in 2009 compared to $7.7 million in 2008. Vendor payments for $3.7 million of property and equipment purchases received in 2009 had not been made as of December 31, 2009 and, accordingly, have been reflected as non-cash activity in our consolidated statement of cash flow for 2009.

Net cash used in financing activities for 2009 was $73.2 million compared to $1.0 million in 2008.2011. The increase in cash used in financing activities is primarily due to the largeracquisition of Convio in May 2012. Additionally, we increased the amount spent on computer equipment and software associated with the infrastructure that supports our subscription-based offerings from $18.2 million in 2011 to $20.6 million in in 2012.

Financing cash flow
During 2012, we received proceeds from borrowings of repayment of borrowings$315.0 million under our credit facility to fund the acquisition of Convio and made debt repayments of $99.5 million. We paid dividends of $21.7 million which was relatively consistent with the amount paid in 2009 compared to 2008. Additionally, in 2008, we borrowed funds, principally to acquire Kintera and repurchase our stock. We did not borrow any funds nor repurchase stock in 2009 and amounts used for acquisition was substantially less in 2009 compared to 2008.

The term loans under our credit facility require periodic principal payments. The balance of the term loans and any amounts drawn on the revolving credit loans are due upon maturity of the credit facility in February 2017. Our commitments related to operating leases have not been reduced by the future minimum lease commitments under sublease agreements, that expire in 2010 and 2011, incentive payments from the state of South Carolina resulting from the relocation of our headquarters, and reimbursement of leasehold improvements totaling $4.7 million.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We do not believe we currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons.

Foreign currency exchange rates

Approximately 12.8%14% of our total net revenue for the year ended December 31, 20092012 was derived from operations outside the United States. We do not have significant operations in countries in which the economy is considered to be highly inflationary. Our consolidated financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars and, accordingly, changes in the exchange rate between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar will affect the translation of our subsidiaries’ financial results into U.S. dollars for purposes of reporting our consolidated financial results. The accumulated currency translation adjustment, recorded within other comprehensive loss as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, was $0.7a loss of $1.2 million and $1.0$1.1 million at December 31, 20092012 and 2008,December 31, 2011, respectively.

The vast majority of our contracts are entered into by our U.S., Canadian or U.K. entities. The contracts entered into by the U.S. entity are almost always denominated in U.S. dollars, contracts entered into by our Canadian subsidiary are generally denominated in Canadian dollars, and contracts entered into by our U.K., Australian and the Netherlands subsidiaries are generally denominated in pounds sterling, Australian dollars and euros,Euros, respectively. Historically, as the U.S. dollar weakened, foreign currency translation resulted in an increase in our revenues and expenses denominated in non-U.S. currencies. During 2009, the2012, foreign currency translation has resulted in a decrease in our reported revenues and expenses denominated in non-U.S. currencies when compared to 2008.currencies. Though we do not believe our increased exposure to currency exchange rates has had a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position, we intend to continue to monitor our foreign currency exchange ratesuch exposure and take action as appropriate.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are 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 assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities revenue and expenses and related disclosuresdisclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we reconsider and evaluate our estimates and assumptions, including those that impact revenue recognition, long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation, the provision for income taxes, capitalization of software development costs, our allowance for sales returns and doubtful accounts, valuation of long-liveddeferred sales commissions, accounting for business combinations and intangible assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation and provision for income taxes, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities andloss contingencies.

We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from any of our estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the critical accounting policies listed below affect significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue recognition

Our revenue is primarily generated from the following sources: (1) selling perpetual licenses of our software products; (2) providing professional services including implementation, training, consulting, hosting and other services; (3) providing software maintenance and support services; and (4)(i) charging for the use of our software products in a hosted environment.

environment; (ii) selling perpetual licenses of our software products; (iii) providing professional services including implementation, training, consulting, analytic, hosting and other services; and (iv) providing software maintenance and support services.
We recognize revenue when all of the following conditions are met:
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
The product or services has been delivered;
The fee is fixed or determinable; and
Collection of the resulting receivable is probable.

estimates. We deem acceptance of an agreement to be evidence of an arrangement. Delivery for our products occurs when the product is shipped or transmitted, and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customers. Our typical license agreement doesagreements do not include customer acceptance provisions; however, if acceptance provisions are provided, delivery is deemed to occur upon acceptance. We consider the fee to be fixed or determinable unless the fee is subject to refund or adjustment or is not payable within our standard payment terms. Payment terms greater than 90 days are considered to be beyond our customary payment terms. Collection is deemed probable if we expect that the customer will be able to pay amounts under the arrangement as they become due. If we determine that collection is not probable, we defer revenue recognition until collection.

Revenue is recognized net of sales returns and allowances.

Subscriptions
We provide hosting services to customers who have purchased perpetual rights to certain of our software products (hosting services). Revenue from hosting services, as well as data enrichment services, data management services and online training programs is recognized ratably beginning on the activation date over the term of the agreement, which generally ranges from one to three years. Any related set-up fees are recognized ratably over the estimated period that the customer benefits from the related hosting service.
We make certain of our software products available for use in hosted application arrangements without licensing perpetual rights to the software (hosted applications). Revenue from hosted applications is recognized ratably beginning on the activation date over the term of the agreement, which generally ranges from one to three years. Any revenue related to upfront activation, set-up or implementation fees is recognized ratably over the estimated period that the customer benefits from the related hosted application. Direct and incremental costs relating to activation, set-up and implementation for hosted applications are capitalized until the hosted application is deployed and in use, and then expensed over the estimated period that the customer benefits from the related hosted application.
For arrangements that have multiple elements and do not include software licenses, we allocate arrangement consideration at the inception of the arrangement to those elements that qualify as separate units of accounting. The arrangement consideration is allocated to the separate units of accounting based on relative selling price method in accordance with the selling price hierarchy, which includes: (i) vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) if available; (ii) third-party evidence (TPE) if VSOE is not available; and (iii) best estimate of selling price if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. In general, we use VSOE to allocate the selling price to subscription and service deliverables.
Revenue from transaction processing fees is recognized when the amounts are determined, reported and billed. Credit card fees directly associated with processing donations for customers are included in subscriptions revenue, net of related transaction costs.
License fees
We sell software licenses with maintenance, varying levels of professional services and, in certain instances, with hosting services. We allocate revenue to delivered components, normally the license componenteach of the arrangement,elements in these arrangements using the residual value method under which we first allocate revenue to the undelivered elements, typically the non-software license components, based on objective evidence of the fair value of the undeliveredvarious elements. We determine the fair value of the various elements which is specific to us.using different methods. Fair value for maintenance services associated with software licenses is based upon renewal rates stated in the agreements with customers, which vary according to the level of support service provided under the maintenance program. Fair value of professional services and other products and services is based on sales of these products and services to other customers when sold on a stand-alone basis. Any remaining revenue is allocated to the delivered elements which is normally the software license in the arrangement.
When a software license is sold with software customization services, generally the services are to provide customer support for assistance in creating special reports and other enhancements that will assist with efforts to improve operational efficiency and/or to support business process improvements. These services are not essential to the functionality of the software. However, when software customization services are considered essential to the functionality of the software, we recognize revenue for both the software license and the services on a percent-complete basis.

Services

We generally bill consulting, installation and implementation services based on hourly rates plus reimbursable travel-related expenses. Revenue is recognized for these services over the period the services are performed. For service engagements of less than $10,000, we frequently contract for and bill based on a fixed fee plus reimbursable travel-related expenses. We recognize this revenue upon completion of the work performed.

We recognize analytic services revenue from donor prospect research engagements, the sale of lists of potential donors, benchmarking studies and data modeling service engagements upon delivery.

In arrangements where we provide customers the right to updates to the lists during the contract period, revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period.

We sell training at a fixed rate for each specific class at a per attendee price or at a packaged price for several attendees, and recognize the related revenue is recognized only upon the customer attending and completing training. Additionally, we sell a fixed-rate program,programs, which permitspermit customers to attend unlimited training over a specified contract period, typically one year, subject to certain restrictions, and revenue is recognized ratably over this contract period.

Maintenance
Blackbaud, Inc.

Item 7. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations—(Continued)

Maintenance

We recognize revenue from maintenance services ratably over the contract term, which is typically one year. Maintenance contracts are at rates that vary according to the level of the maintenance program and are generally renewable annually. Maintenance contracts also include the right to unspecified product upgrades on an if-and-when available basis. Certain support services are sold in prepaid units of time and recognized as revenue upon their usage.

Subscriptions

We provide hosting services to customers who have purchased perpetual rights to certain of our software products (hosting services). Revenue from hosting services, as well as data enrichment services, data management services and online training programs is recognized ratably over the service period of the contract. Any related set-up fees are also recognized ratably over the service period of the contract.

We are increasingly making certain of our software products available for use in hosted application arrangements without licensing perpetual rights to the software (hosted applications). Revenue from hosted applications is recognized over the subscription agreement, which generally ranges from one to three years. For contractual arrangements covering the use of hosted applications the stand alone value of the delivered items or the fair value of undelivered items in the arrangement have not been established. Such items include upfront activation, implementation and hosting of the solution. For these arrangements we treat the transaction as a single element and the revenue is deferred until the hosted application is deployed and in use, at which time revenue is recognized over the remaining term of the arrangement. Direct and incremental costs relating to activation and implementation are capitalized until the hosted application is deployed and in use, and then expensed over the remaining term of the arrangement.

Revenue from transaction processing fees is recognized when received. Credit card fees directly associated with processing donations for customers are included in subscription revenue, net of related transaction costs.

Deferred revenue

To the extent that our customers are billed or pay for the above described services in advance of delivery, we record such amounts are recorded in deferred revenue.

Sales returns and allowance for doubtful accounts

We provide customers a 30-day right of return and maintain a reserve for returns. We estimate the amount of this reserve based on historical experience. Provisions for sales returns are charged against the related revenue items.

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts at an amount we estimate to be sufficient to provide adequate protection against losses resulting from extending credit to our customers. In judging the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider multiple factors including historical bad debt experience, the general economic environment, the need for specific customer reserves and the aging of our receivables. Any necessary provision is reflected in general and administrative expense. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing these factors and if any receivables were to deteriorate, an additional provision for doubtful accounts could be required.

Valuation of long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill

We review identifiable intangible and other long-lived assets for impairment when events change or circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable include, but are not limited to, a significant decrease in the market value of the business or asset acquired, a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which the business or asset acquired is used or significant adverse change in the business climate. If such events or changes in circumstances occur, we use the undiscounted cash flow method to determine whether the asset is impaired. Cash flows would include the estimated terminal value of the asset and exclude any interest charges. To the extent that the carrying value of the asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows over the estimated remaining life of the asset, we measure the impairment using discounted cash flows. The discount rate utilized would be based on our best estimate of our risks and required investment returns at the time the impairment assessment is made.

Goodwill is assigned to our five reporting units, which are defined as the License Fees, Consultingour four operating segments (see Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements), and Education Services, Analytic Services, Maintenance and Subscriptions operating segments.Blackbaud Payment Services. We test goodwill for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment test comparesWe first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Significant judgment is required in the assessment of qualitative factors. To the extent the qualitative factors indicate that the fair value is likely less than the carrying amount, we compare the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, impairment is indicated. If an impairment is indicated, the impairment is measured as the excess of the recorded goodwill over its fair value, which could materially adversely impact our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

We estimate fair value for each reporting unit based on projected future cash flows discounted using our weighted average cost of capital. A number of significant assumptions and estimates are involved in estimating the fair value of each reporting unit, including revenue growth rates, operating margins, capital spending, discount rate, and working capital changes. Additionally, we make certain judgments and assumptions in allocating assets and liabilities to determine the carrying values for each of our reporting units. We believe the assumptions we use in estimating fair value of our reporting units are reasonable, but are also unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Even if our estimated fair value of the reporting units significantly declined, no impairment would be indicated. Actual future results may differ from those estimates.

If the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, impairment is indicated. If an impairment is indicated, the impairment is measured as the excess of the recorded goodwill over its fair value, which could materially adversely impact our consolidated financial position and results of operations. The 2012 annual impairment test of our goodwill indicated there was no impairment.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based

We measure stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognizedrecognize it as expense over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. We determine the fair value of the stock options and stock appreciation rights using ana Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires us to use significant judgment to make estimates regarding the life of the award, volatility of our stock price, the risk-free interest rate and the dividend yield of our stock over the life of the award. We determine the fair value of awards that contain market conditions using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Changes to these estimates would result in different fair values of awards.

We estimate the number of awards that will be forfeited and recognize expense only for those awards that ultimately vest. Significant judgment is required in determining the adjustment to compensation expense for estimated forfeitures. Compensation expense in a period could be impacted, favorably or unfavorably, by differences between forfeitureestimated and actual forfeitures.

differences to reverse, we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of an asset or liability. We record a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Significant judgment is required in determining income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as deferred revenue, for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in a net deferred tax asset or liability that is included in our consolidated balance sheets. The final outcome of these matters for tax reporting purposes might be different than that which is reflected in our historical income tax provisions, benefits and accruals. Any difference could have a material effect on our income tax provision requires estimates due to transactions, credits and net income incalculations where the period in which such aultimate tax determination is made.

Prior to October 13, 1999, we were organizeduncertain. Uncertainties arise as an S corporation under the Internal Revenue Code and, therefore, were not subject to federal income taxes. In addition, we were not subject to income tax in manya consequence of the states in which we operated as a resultactual source of our S corporation status. We historically made distributions to our stockholders to covertaxable income between domestic and foreign locations, the stockholders’ anticipatedoutcome of tax liability. In connection with our 1999 recapitalization, we converted our U.S. taxable status from an S corporation to a C corporation. Accordingly, since October 14, 1999 we have been subject to federalaudits and state income taxes. Upon the conversion and in connection with the recapitalization, we recorded a one-time benefitultimate utilization of $107.0 million to establish a deferred tax asset.

We assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income.credits. To the extent we believe that recovery is not likely, we establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance, we include an expense within the income tax provision in the consolidated statement of operations. Our valuation allowance of $8.0 million at December 31, 2009 is primarily associated with deferred tax assets for certain state income tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards that we have determined are not more-likely-than-not to be realized. The ability to utilize our net deferred tax asset is dependent on our ability to generate future taxable income. Based on current estimates of revenue and expenses, we expect future taxable income will be sufficient to realize the remaining deferred tax assets. Even if actual results are significantly below our current estimates, the recovery still remains likely and, except for the state tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards discussed above, no valuation allowance would be necessary.

Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes. To the extent that final results differ from estimated amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax provision in the period in which suchthe determination is made and could have an impact on the deferred tax asset. Our deferredmade.

We make estimates in determining tax assets and liabilities, are recorded at an amount based upon a U.S. federal incomewhich arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax rate of 35.0% and appropriate statutory rates of various foreign, state and local jurisdictions in which we operate. If our tax rates change, we will adjustfinancial statement purposes. We record valuation allowances to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. In assessing the adequacy of a recorded valuation allowance significant judgment is required. We consider all positive and negative evidence and a variety of factors including the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, historical and projected future taxable income, and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. If we determine there is less than a 50% likelihood that we will be able to use a deferred tax asset in the future in excess of its net carrying value, then an amount reflecting thoseadjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance is made to reduce income tax rates. If such change is determined to be appropriate, it will affect the provision forexpense, thereby increasing net income taxes duringin the period that thesuch determination iswas made.

Sales returns and allowance for doubtful accounts
We provide customers a 30-day right of return and under certain circumstances we provide service related credits to our customers. We maintain a reserve for returns and credits which is estimated based on several factors including historical experience, known credits yet to be issued, the aging of customer accounts and the nature of service level commitments. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing these factors. Provisions for sales returns are charged against the related revenue items.
We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts at an amount we estimate to be sufficient to provide adequate protection against losses resulting from extending credit to our customers. In judging the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider multiple factors including historical bad debt experience, the general economic environment, the need for specific customer reserves and the aging of our receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing these factors and if any receivables were to deteriorate, an additional provision for doubtful accounts could be required. Any necessary provision is reflected in general and administrative expense.
Deferred sales commissions
We pay sales commissions at the time contracts with customers are signed or shortly thereafter, depending on the size and duration of the sales contract. To the extent that these commissions relate to revenue not yet recognized, the amounts are recorded as deferred sales commission costs. Subsequently, the commissions are recognized as expense as the revenue is recognized.

Business combinations
We are required to allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date based upon their estimated fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date represents the excess of the purchase consideration of an acquired business over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This allocation and valuation require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to long-lived and intangible assets.
Critical estimates in valuing intangible assets include but are not limited to estimates about: future expected cash flows from customer contracts, proprietary technology and non-compete agreements; the acquired company's brand awareness and market position, assumptions about the period of time the brand will continue to be; as well as expected costs to develop the in-process research and development into commercially viable products and estimated cash flows from the projects when completed, and discount rates. Our estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions we believe to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur.

Contingencies

We are subject to the possibility of various loss contingencies in the normal course of business. We record an accrual for a contingency when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Often these issues are subject to substantial uncertainties and, therefore, the probability of loss and the estimation of damages are difficult to ascertain. These assessments can involve a series of complex judgments about future events and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by us. Although we believe we have substantial defenses in these matters, we could incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows in any particular period.

Statements containedaccumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in this Form 10-Kits entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not historical facts, are or might constitute forward-looking statementsrequired under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU 2013-02 is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. We do not anticipate any material impact from the safe harbor provisionsadoption of ASU 2013-02.

In July 2012, the Private Securities Litigation Reform ActFASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, which simplifies how entities test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. ASU 2012-02 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test currently required by ASC Topic 350-30 on general intangibles other than goodwill. ASU 2012-02 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, provided that the entity has not yet issued its financial statements. We do not anticipate any material impact from the adoption of 1995. Although we believe the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our expectations will be attained. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations expressed in the report include: general economic risk; uncertainty regarding increased business and renewals from existing customers; continued success in sales growth; lengthy sales and implementation cycles, particularly in larger organizations; risk associated with successful implementation of multiple integrated software products; technological changes that make our products and services less competitive; the ability to attract and retain key personnel; risks related to our dividend policy and stock repurchase program, including potential limitations on our ability to grow and the possibility that we might discontinue payment of dividends; risks relating to restrictions imposed by the credit facility; management of integration of recently acquired companies and other risks associated with acquisitions; risks associated with management of growth; and the other risk factors set forth from time to time in our SEC filings.

Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk

We have market rate sensitivity for interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Our variable rate debt is our primary financial instrument with market risk exposure for changing interest rates. We manage interest rate risk through a combination of short-term and long-term borrowings and the use of derivative instruments. Due to the nature of our short-term investments and the lack of material debt, we have concluded at December 31, 2009 that we currently do not face no material market risk exposure. Therefore, no quantitative tabular disclosures are required.exposure as of December 31, 2012. For a discussion of our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, see the “Foreign currency exchange rates” section of Management’s"Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operationsoperations" in this report.

Controls and procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) are designed only to provide reasonable assurance that they will meet their objectives. As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15.13a-15(b). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide the reasonable assurance discussed above.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

In connection with the acquisition of Convio, we performed certain due diligence procedures related to Convio's financial reporting and disclosure controls. As part of the ongoing integration, we will continue to assess the overall control environment of this business. No change in internal control over financial reporting occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter with respect to our operations, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on the framework inInternal Control—Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2009.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Blackbaud, Inc.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations,comprehensive income, of cash flows and of stockholders’stockholders' equity and comprehensive income present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Blackbaud, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 20092012 and 2008,2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 20092012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009,2012, based on criteria established inInternal Control—Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’sCompany's management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’sManagement's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Company’sCompany's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for uncertain tax positions in 2007.

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

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

2. Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the CompanyBlackbaud, Inc. and its wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company evaluates subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Areas of the financial statements where estimates may have the most significant effect include revenue recognition, the allowance for sales returns and doubtful accounts, deferred sales commissions and professional services costs, valuation of derivative instruments, long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation and the provision for income taxes and valuation of deferred tax assets.taxes. Changes in the facts or circumstances underlying these estimates could result in material changes and actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Revenue recognition

The Company’s

Our revenue is primarily generated from the following sources: (1)(i) charging for the use of our software products in a hosted environment; (ii) selling perpetual licenses of itsour software products; (2)(iii) providing professional services including implementation, training, consulting, analytic, hosting and other services; (3)and (iv) providing software maintenance and support services; and (4) charging for the use of its software products in a hosted environment.

License fees

The Company recognizesservices.

We recognize revenue from the sale of perpetual software license rights when all of the following conditions are met:

theThe product or service has been delivered;

theThe fee is fixed or determinable; and

collectionCollection of the resulting receivable is probable.

Blackbaud, Inc.

Notes to consolidated financial statements—(Continued)

The Company deemsDetermining whether and when these criteria have been met can require significant judgment and estimates. We deem acceptance of an agreement to be evidence of an arrangement. Delivery occurs when the product is shipped or transmitted, and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customers. The Company’sOur typical license agreement doesagreements do not include customer acceptance provisions; however, if acceptance provisions are provided, delivery is deemed to occur upon acceptance. The Company considersWe consider the fee to be fixed or determinable unless the fee is subject to refund or adjustment or is not payable within the Company’sour standard payment terms. Payment terms greater than 90 days are considered to be beyond the Company’sour customary payment terms. Collection is deemed probable if the Company expectswe expect that the customer will be able to pay amounts under the arrangement as they become due. If the Company determineswe determine that collection is not probable, it deferswe defer revenue recognition until collection.

Revenue is recognized net of sales returns and allowances.

Blackbaud, Inc.
Notes to consolidated financial statements (continued)

Subscriptions
We provide hosting services to customers who have purchased perpetual rights to certain of our software products (hosting services). Revenue from hosting services, as well as data enrichment services, data management services and online training programs is recognized ratably beginning on the activation date over the term of the agreement, which generally ranges from one to three years. Any related set-up fees are recognized ratably over the estimated period that the customer benefits from the related hosting service.
We make certain of our software products available for use in hosted application arrangements without licensing perpetual rights to the software (hosted applications). Revenue from hosted applications is recognized ratably beginning on the activation date over the term of the agreement, which generally ranges from one to three years. Any revenue related to upfront activation, set-up or implementation fees is recognized ratably over the estimated period that the customer benefits from the related hosted application. Direct and incremental costs relating to activation, set-up and implementation for hosted applications are capitalized until the hosted application is deployed and in use, and then expensed over the estimated period that the customer benefits from the related hosted application.
For arrangements that have multiple elements and do not include software licenses, we allocate arrangement consideration at the inception of the arrangement to those elements that qualify as separate units of accounting. The Company sellsarrangement consideration is allocated to the separate units of accounting based on relative selling price method in accordance with the selling price hierarchy, which includes: (i) vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) if available; (ii) third-party evidence (TPE) if VSOE is not available; and (iii) best estimate of selling price if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. In general, we use VSOE to allocate the selling price to subscription and service deliverables.
Revenue from transaction processing fees is recognized when the service is provided and the amounts are determinable. Credit card fees directly associated with processing donations for customers are included in subscriptions revenue, net of related transaction costs.
License fees
We sell software licenses with maintenance, varying levels of professional services and, in certain instances, with hosting services. The Company allocatesWe allocate revenue to delivered components, normally the license componenteach of the arrangement,elements in these arrangements using the residual value method under which we first allocate revenue to the undelivered elements, typically the non-software license components, based on objective evidence of the fair value of the undeliveredvarious elements. We determine the fair value of the various elements which is specific to the Company.using different methods. Fair value for maintenance services associated with software licenses is based upon renewal rates stated in the agreements with customers, which vary according to the level of support service provided under the maintenance program. Fair value of professional services and other products and services is based on sales of these products and services to other customers when sold on a stand-alone basis. Any remaining revenue is allocated to the delivered elements which is normally the software license in the arrangement.
When a software license is sold with software customization services, generally the services are to provide customer support for assistance in creating special reports and other enhancements that will assist with efforts to improve operational efficiency and/or to support business process improvements. These services are not essential to the functionality of the software. However, when software customization services are considered essential to the functionality of the software, the Company recognizeswe recognize revenue for both the software license and the services on a percent-complete basis.

using the percentage-of-completion method.

Services

The Company

We generally billsbill consulting, installation and implementation services based on hourly rates plus reimbursable travel-related expenses. Revenue is recognized for these services over the period the services are performed. For service engagements of less than $10,000, the Company frequently contracts for and bills based on a fixed fee plus reimbursable travel-related expenses. The Company recognizes this revenue upon completion of the work performed.

The Company recognizes

We recognize analytic services revenue from donor prospect research engagements, the sale of lists of potential donors, benchmarking studies and data modeling service engagements upon delivery.

The Company sells In arrangements where we provide customers the right to updates to the lists during the contract period, revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period.

We sell training at a fixed rate for each specific class at a per attendee price or at a packaged price for several attendees, and recognize the related revenue is recognized only upon the customer attending and completing training. Additionally, the Company sells awe sell fixed-rate program,programs, which permitspermit customers to attend unlimited training over a specified contract period, typically one year, subject to certain restrictions, and revenue is recognized ratably over this contract period.

Maintenance
Maintenance

The Company recognizesWe recognize revenue from maintenance services ratably over the contract term, which is typically one year. Maintenance contracts are at rates that vary according to the level of the maintenance program and are generally renewable annually. Maintenance contracts also include the right to unspecified product upgrades on an if-and-when available basis. Certain support services are sold in prepaid units of time and recognized as revenue upon their usage.

Blackbaud, Inc.

Notes to consolidated financial statements—(Continued)

Subscriptions

The Company provides hosting services to customers who have purchased perpetual rights to certain of its software products (hosting services). Revenue from hosting services, as well as data enrichment services, data management services and online training programs is recognized ratably over the service period of the contract. Any related set-up fees are also recognized ratably over the service period of the contract.

The Company is increasingly making certain of its software products available for use in hosted application arrangements without licensing perpetual rights to the software (hosted applications). Revenue from hosted applications is recognized over the subscription agreement, which generally ranges from one to three years. For contractual arrangements covering the use of hosted applications the stand alone value of the delivered items or the fair value of undelivered items in the arrangement have not been established. Such items include upfront activation, implementation and hosting of the solution. For these arrangements the Company treats the transaction as a single element and the revenue is deferred until the hosted application is deployed and in use, at which time revenue is recognized over the remaining term of the arrangement. Direct and incremental costs relating to activation and implementation are capitalized until the hosted application is deployed and in use, and then expensed over the remaining term of the arrangement.

Revenue from transaction processing fees is recognized when received. Credit card fees directly associated with processing donations for customers are included in subscription revenue, net of related transaction costs.

Deferred revenue

To the extent that the Company’sour customers are billed or pay for the above described services in advance of delivery, the Company recordswe record such amounts in deferred revenue.

Fair value measurements
We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including derivative instruments. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received upon purchase of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use a three-tier fair value hierarchy to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
Level 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.
Our financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety within the hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to fair value measurement. Changes to a financial assets' or liabilities' level within the fair value hierarchy are determined as of the end of a reporting period.
Derivative instruments
We use derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk. We view derivative instruments as risk management tools and do not use them for trading or speculative purposes. Our policy requires that derivatives used for hedging purposes be designated and effective as a hedge of the identified risk exposure at the inception of the contract. Accordingly, changes in fair value of the derivative contract must be highly correlated with changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged item at inception of the hedge and over the life of the hedge contract.
We record all derivative instruments on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized currently in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of the changes in fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income and reclassified to earnings in a manner that matches the timing of the earnings impact of the hedged transactions. Ineffective portions of the changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recognized currently in earnings.

Reimbursable travel expense
We expense reimbursable travel costs as incurred and include them in cost of other revenue. The reimbursement of these costs by our customers is included in other revenue.
Sales taxes

The Company presents

We present sales taxes and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities on a net basis and, as such, excludesexclude them from revenues.

Notes to consolidated financial statements (continued)

Shipping and handling
We expense shipping and handling costs as incurred and include them in cost of other revenue. The reimbursement of these costs by our customers is included in other revenue.
Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Donor restricted cash and donations payable

Restricted cash consists of donations collected by the Companyus and payable to itsour customers, net of the associated transaction fees earned. Monies associated with donations payable are segregated in a separate bank account and used exclusively for the payment of donations payable. This usage restriction is either legally or internally imposed and reflects the Company’sour intention with regard to such deposits.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, donor restricted cash and accounts receivable. Our cash and cash equivalents and donor restricted cash are placed with high credit-quality financial institutions. Our accounts receivable are derived from sales to customers who primarily operate in the nonprofit sector. With respect to accounts receivable, we perform ongoing evaluations of our customers and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical experience and our expectations of future losses. As of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, there were no significant concentrations with respect to our consolidated revenues or accounts receivable.
Property and equipment

The Company records

We record property and equipment at cost and depreciatesdepreciate them over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Property and equipment subject to capital leases are depreciated over the lesser of the term of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset. Upon retirement or sale, the cost of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to income. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

TheseWe transferred these assets are transferred to the applicable property category on the date they are placed in service. There was no capitalized interest applicable to construction-in-progress for the years ended December 31, 20092012 and 2008.

The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the development or purchase of software for use in the Company’s internal operations. Any amounts capitalized are included in computer software costs and amortized over the expected useful life. Costs incurred for upgrades and enhancements, which will not result in additional functionality, are expensed as incurred.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the purchase price in excess of the net amount assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed by the Company primarily asus in a result of the acquisition of Target Software, Inc. and Target Analysis Group, Inc. (together referred to as the Target Companies), eTapestry.com (referred to as eTapestry) and Kintera, Inc. (referred to as Kintera).business combination. Goodwill is allocated to reporting units which are defined as the Company’s operating segments, and tested annually for impairment. The CompanyOur reporting units are our four reportable segments and our payment processing operations. We will also test goodwill for impairment between annual impairment tests if indicators of potential impairment exist. We first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. To the extent the qualitative factors indicate that there is more than 50% likelihood that the fair value is less than the carrying amount, we compare the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, impairment is indicated. The 2012 annual impairment test indicated the estimated fair value of the reporting units significantly exceeded the carrying value. There was no impairment of goodwill during 2009, 20082012, 2011 or 2007.

Cost method investments
Cost method investments included in other assets consist of financial instrumentsinvestments in privately held companies where we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence or have control over the investee. We record these investments at cost and periodically test them for other-than-temporary impairment. During the years ended

TheDecember 31, 2012 and 2011, we determined that our cost method investment had other-than-temporary impairment based on the projected liquidity of the investment. We used the income approach to determine the fair value of a financial instrument is the investment in determining the impairment. An impairment loss of $0.2 million and $1.8 million was recorded in income from operations for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The aggregate carrying amount of our cost method investment at which the instrument could be exchanged between willing parties other than in a forced sale or liquidation.

There were no remaining cost method investments at December 31, 2009 and 2008. The Company believes that the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values at December 31, 2009 and 2008, due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

Deferred financing costs

Deferred financing costs included in other assets represent the direct costs of entering into the Company’sboth our revolving credit facility in July 2007June 2011 and increasing the available funds under theour amended and restated credit facility in June 2008.February 2012. These costs are amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method. The deferred financing fees are being amortized over the term of the credit facility.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Stock-based compensation cost arising from stock option grants isand awards with performance or market conditions are recognized using the accelerated method. Costs arising from restricted stock and stock appreciation right grants are recognized on a straight-line basis.

Income taxes

Prior to October 13, 1999, the Company was organized as an S corporation under the Internal Revenue Code

We make estimates and therefore, was not subject to federal income taxes. The Company historically made distributions to its stockholders to cover the stockholders’ anticipated tax liability. In connection with its 1999 recapitalization, the Company converted its U.S. taxable status from an S corporation to a C corporation and, accordingly, since October 14, 1999 has been subject to federal and state income taxes. Upon this conversion and as a result of the recapitalization, the Company recorded a one-time benefit of $107.0 million to establish a deferred tax asset. This amount was recorded as a direct increase to equityjudgments in the statements of stockholders’ equity. The Company has not recorded a valuation allowance against this deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2009 or 2008, as the Company believes it is more-likely-than-not that it will be able to utilize this benefit, which is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income. The amount of deferred tax asset related to this matter at December 31, 2009 was $35.9 million.

The Company adopted a new income tax standard for uncertain tax positions on January 1, 2007 under which a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is recognized only if it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. Penalties and interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in the provision for income taxes.

Significant judgment is required in determining the provisionaccounting for income taxes. The Company records itscalculation of income tax provision atrequires estimates due to transactions, credits and calculations where the anticipatedultimate tax rates based on estimatesdetermination is uncertain. Uncertainties arise as a consequence of annual pretax income.the actual source of taxable income between domestic and foreign locations, the outcome of tax audits and the ultimate utilization of tax credits. To the extent that the finalactual results differ from these estimated amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax provision in the period in which suchthe determination is made and could have an impact on the deferred tax asset. The Company’s deferredmade.

We make estimates in determining tax assets and liabilities, are recorded at an amount based upon a U.S. federal incomewhich arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax rate of 35.0% and appropriate statutory rates of various foreign, state and local jurisdictions in which the Company operates.

Research and development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. These costs include salaries and related human resource costs, third-party contractor expenses, software development tools, an allocation of facilities and depreciation expenses and other expenses in developing new products and upgrading and enhancing existing products.

Software development costs

The costs incurred in the preliminary stages of internal use software development are expensed as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, are capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. We also capitalize costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality. Capitalized costs are recorded as part of computer software costs. Internal use software is amortized on a straight line basis over its estimated useful life, generally three years.
Costs for the development of software to be sold are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at which time such costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. Capitalized software development costs begins upon the establishment ofinclude direct labor costs and fringe benefit costs attributed to programmers, software engineers and quality control teams working on products after they reach technological feasibility subjectbut before they are generally available to net realizable value considerations. To date, the point in time of achieving technological feasibility and the general availability of such software has substantially coincided; therefore,customers for sale. Capitalized software development costs qualifyingare typically amortized over the estimated product life of generally three years, on a straight-line basis.

Restructuring Costs
Restructuring costs include charges for the costs of exit or disposal activities. The liability for costs associated with exit or disposal activities is measured initially at fair value and only recognized when the liability is incurred. Restructuring costs are not directly identified with a particular segment and as a result, management does not consider these charges in the evaluation of the operating income from segments.

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company reviews

We review long-lived assets for impairment when events change or circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If such events or changes in circumstances are present, the undiscounted cash flow method is used to determine whether the asset is impaired. No impairment of long-lived assets resulted in 2009, 20082012, 2011 or 2007.

Earnings per share

The Company computes

We compute basic earnings per share by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares then outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, shares of non-vested restricted stock and settlement of stock appreciation rights and certain contingent liabilities that will be paid in sharesvesting of common stock.

Diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2009restricted stock awards and 2008 do not include the effect of 488,282 and 496,945 potential common share equivalents, respectively, as they are anti-dilutive.

eTapestry

On August 1, 2007, the Company acquired eTapestry, a privately-owned company based near Indianapolis, Indiana. eTapestry is a provider of an on-demand donor management and fundraising solution. The acquisition of eTapestry allows the Company to address a broader market opportunity by providing an on-demand solution that is suited for smaller organizations interested in a relatively low-cost offering and mid-sized nonprofits interested in a stand-alone fundraising solution deployed in an on-demand model. The Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of eTapestry for approximately $25.4 million in a cash transaction financed by a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The results of operations of eTapestry are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company from the date of acquisition.

Target Companies

On January 16, 2007, the Company acquired the Target Companies, privately-owned affiliated companies based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The acquired companies provide solutions that help organizations analyze, plan, forecast, execute, and manage high-volume fundraising campaigns while simultaneously helping them maintain long-term constituent relationships. The acquisition of the Target Companies significantly advances the Company’s strategic goal of providing a more complete set of solutions that meet both the fundraising and direct marketing needs of the nonprofit market. The Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of the Target Companies for approximately $58.7 million, including direct acquisition-related costs, in an all cash transaction that was financed by a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The results of operations of the Target Companies are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company from the date of acquisition.

At the acquisition date, an additional amount of up to $2.4 million was contingently payable to the sellers under an earn-out arrangement based upon performance of the acquired businesses over the year subsequent to the acquisition. In 2008, the Company paid $2.3 million of contingent consideration in cash, which was recorded as an additional acquisition cost and increased the balance of goodwill. There is no further obligation in connection with the Target acquisition.

Deferred financing costs

Amortization expense for deferred financing costs was $0.1 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007. A portion of the deferred financing costs amortized in 2007 was associated with the previous credit facility. The amortization of deferred financing cost recognized in 2009, 2008 and 2007 includes the amortization of costcovenants related to the revolvingconsolidated leverage ratio and consolidated interest coverage ratio, as well as restrictions on the maximum amount of annual capital expenditures, our ability to declare and pay dividends and our ability to repurchase shares of our common stock. At December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with all debt covenants under the credit facility.

The following table summarizes our debt as of December 31, 2012. We had no borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2011. The effective interest rate includes our interest cost incurred and the effect of interest rate swap agreements.

A portion of the foreign and state net operating loss carryforwards have a valuation reserve due to management's uncertainty regarding the future ability to use such carryforwards. Our federal and state tax credit carryover ofcarryforwards for income tax purposes were approximately $1.6$3.6 million which will expire between 2014 and 2018.

If not utilized, the federal tax credit carryforwards will begin to expire between 2010in 2033 and 2024, if unused. Thesethe state tax credit carryforwards will begin to expire in 2013. The state tax credits had a valuation reserve of approximately $6.4$8.5 million, net of federal tax, as of December 31, 2009.

The Company acquired all of its federal and state net operating loss carryforwards in business acquisitions. At December 31, 2009, the Company had deferred tax assets of $17.3 million for federal net operating loss carryforwards and $2.5 million for state net operating loss carryforwards. These deferred assets pertain to net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $49.6 million and $47.9 million for federal and state purposes, respectively, at December 31, 2009. These net operating losses carryforwards expire during various tax years through 2029. As a result of the Kintera acquisition, Kintera underwent a change in ownership under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC Sec. 382) on July 8, 2008. On August 1, 2007, as a result of the eTapestry acquisition, eTapestry also underwent a change in ownership under IRC Sec. 382. In general, IRC Sec. 382 places annual limitations on the use of certain tax attributes such net operating losses and tax credit carryovers in existence at the ownership change date. These limitations restrict the amount of the aforementioned net operating loss carryforwards that are available to offset taxable income each year. A portion of the state net operating loss carryforward has a valuation reserve due to management’s uncertainty regarding the future ability to use such carryforwards.

We have taken federal tax positions in certain taxing jurisdictions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits might significantly decrease within the next twelve months.

We have also granted restricted stock units for which vesting is subject to meeting certain performance and/or market conditions. The fair market value of the stock at the time of the grant is amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the period of vesting except for awards with market or performance conditions which are amortized on an accelerated basis over the period of vesting. Income tax benefits resulting from the vesting of restricted stock units are recognized in the period the restrictions lapseunit is exercised to the extent expense has been recognized. Tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation in excess of the related book expense recorded are credited to additional paid-in capital within stockholders’ equity. During 2009 and 2008, the Company purchased 170,729 and 106,446 shares, respectively, from restricted stockholders upon lapsing of stock restrictions in order for the holders to satisfy personal tax liabilities.

The expected volatility assumption is determined by calculatingbased on the historical volatility for a number of comparable companiesour stock and calculating the average expected volatility over the expected life of the SAR. The dividend yield is based on the adopted dividend policy in effect at the time of grant.grant and the expectation of future dividends. The risk-free interest rate is based on United States Treasury rate for a term consistent with the expected life of the SAR at the time of grant. The expected life of the SAR represents the length of time from grant until the SAR is exercised based on experience.

18. Restructuring
During 2012, in an effort to consolidate our operating locations we decided not to renew our current lease for office space in San Diego, CA, which matures on June 30, 2013. As a result, we initiated a plan to transition most of our operations based in San Diego, CA to our Austin, TX location. We expect to incur a total of $1.3 million in before-tax restructuring costs through June 2013. Restructuring costs incurred consist primarily of costs to separate and relocate employees. For the year ended December 31, 2012, we incurred restructuring costs of $0.2 million, which were recorded in general and administrative expense.
The following table summarizes our restructuring costs as of December 31, 2012:

19. Subsequent events
In January 2013, we implemented a realignment of our workforce in response to changes in the nonprofit industry and global economy. The realignment included a reduction in workforce of approximately 130 positions. We expect to record a charge of approximately $2.5 million in 2013 relating to this reduction in workforce, consisting primarily of one-time severance and termination benefits.
