CLARUS CORPORATION
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Clarus
Corporation (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles for interim financial information and
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information in notes required by Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary
for a fair presentation of the unaudited financial statements for this interim
period have been included. The results of the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for the year ended December
31, 1999. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998,
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
NOTE 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share was computed in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share," using
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The diluted net loss
per share for the threesix month periods ended March 31,June 30, 1999 and 1998, doesand the
quarter ended June 30, 1999, do not include the effect of common stock
equivalents, including redeemable convertible preferred stock, as their effect
would be antidilutive. Diluted net income per share for the quarter ended June
30, 1998, includes the effect of common stock equivalents.
NOTE 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company's revenue consists of revenues from the licensing of software and
fees from consulting, implementation, training, and maintenance services.
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Position No. 97-2,
"Software Revenue Recognition" ("SOP No. 97-2"). Under SOP No. 97-2, the Company
recognizes software license revenue when the following criteria are met: (i) a
signed and executed contract is obtained, (ii) shipment of the product has
occurred, (iii) the license fee is fixed and determinable, (iv) collectibility
is probable, and (v) remaining obligations under the license agreement are
insignificant.
During the second quarter ended June 30, 1999, the Company entered a license and
support agreement with a customer in exchange for approximately $1,549,000,
consisting of $380,000 in cash and equity securities valued at $1,169,000. The
cash portion is due by December 31, 1999. The number of equity securities to be
issued to the Company will be determined based on the same terms and conditions
set forth in the customer's first sale of its equity securities with an
independent third-party bona-fide purchaser. If the offering is not complete by
September 30, 1999, the customer is required to pay the Company cash in the
amount of $1,169,000 on September 30, 1999.

ITEMItem 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEWManagement's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Overview
Clarus Corporation develops, markets, licenses, and supports Web-based
applications for managing operational(i) Internet-based
business-to-business e-commerce solutions designed to help customers better
manage their operating resources, together withthe non-production goods and services required
to operate a company, and (ii) financial and human resources software
applications for mid- to large-sized companies. Our applications create high
lifetime value by delivering sophisticated functionality, while substantially
reducing the time required for implementation, maintenance, and upgrades.
During 1998, we introduced a series of modules and product enhancements.
Specifically, in the third quarter of 1998, we introduced our Web-commerce
applications, which include E-Procurement, a business-to-business buy-side
Web-based solution designed for the acquisition of non-industrial goods and
services, Clarus Budget,E-Budget, and a 32-bit version of our human resources
applications.
We currently market our products in the United States and Canada through a
direct sales force, and we have licensed our applications to more than 289290
customers in a variety of industry segments, including insurance, financial
services, communications, retail, printing and publishing, transportation, and
manufacturing. We also offer fee-based implementation, training and upgrade
services, and ongoing maintenance and support of our products for a 12-month to
three-year renewable term.
On November 6, 1998, we completed the acquisition of ELEKOM Corporation
("ELEKOM") for approximately $15.7 million, consisting of $8.0 million in cash
and approximately 1.4 million shares of our common stock. ELEKOM was merged with
and into Clarus CSA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of ours, and the separate
existence of ELEKOM ceased (the "Merger"). Immediately following consummation of
the Merger, the former holders of ELEKOM common and preferred stock (the "ELEKOM
Shareholders") owned approximately 13% of our outstanding common stock. Certain
former ELEKOM Shareholders have agreed not to sell any of their shares of our
common stock for a period ending on August 6, 1999. We
recorded, as additional purchase price, (i) payments of $500,000 made to fund
the operations of ELEKOM from October 1, 1998, through the closing date, and
(ii) expenses of approximately $1.0 million to complete the merger. We also
recorded $10.5 million of the purchase price as purchased in-process research
and development.
On May 26, 1998, we completed an initial public offering of our common stock in
which we sold 2.5 million shares for approximately $22.0 million after deducting
offering expenses and underwriting discounts.
Our revenue consists of revenues from the licensing of software and fees from
consulting, implementation, training, and maintenance services. Effective
January 1, 1998, we adopted SOPStatement of Position No. 97-2, "Software Revenue
Recognition," that
supersedesRecognition" ("SOP No.97-2"). Paragraphs 11 and 12 of SOP No. 91-1,97-2 were amended
by Statement of Position No. 98-9, "Software Revenue Recognition."Recognition, With Respect
to Certain Transactions" ("SOP No. 98-9"). SOP No. 98-9 requires recognition of
revenue using the "residual method" when: (i) there is vendor-specific objective
evidence of the fair values of all undelivered elements in a multiple-element
arrangement that is not accounted for using long-term contract accounting, (ii)
vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value does not exist for one or more
of the delivered elements in the arrangement, and (iii) all revenue-recognition
criteria in SOP No. 97-2 other than the requirement for vendor-specific
objective evidence of the fair value of each delivered element of the
arrangement are satisfied. SOP No. 98-9 was effective for transactions entered
into after March 15, 1999. Under SOP No. 97-2, we recognize software license
revenue when the following criteria are met: o(i) a signed and executed contract
is obtained, o(ii) shipment of the product has occurred, o(iii) the license fee is
fixed and determinable, o(iv) collectibility is probable, and o(v) remaining
obligations under the license agreement are insignificant.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (continued)
Overview (continued)
Revenues from software licenses have been recognized upon delivery of our
product if there are no significant obligations on our part following delivery,
and collection of the related receivable, if any, is deemed probable by
management. Revenues from services fees relate to implementation, training, and
upgrade services performed by us and have been recognized as the services are
performed. Maintenance fees relate to customer maintenance and support and have
been recognized rateably over the term of the software support agreement, which
is typically
8
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
OVERVIEW (CONTINUED) 12 months. A majority of our customers renew the maintenance and
support agreements after the initial term. Revenues that have been prepaid or
invoiced, but that do not yet qualify for recognition under our policies, are
reflected as deferred revenue.
Cost of license fees includes royalties, and software duplication and
distribution costs. We recognize these costs as the applications are shipped.
Cost of services fees include personnel and related costs incurred to provide
implementation, training and upgrade services to customers. These costs are
recognized as the services are performed. Cost of maintenance fees includes
personnel and related costs incurred to provide the ongoing support and
maintenance of our products. These costs are recognized as incurred.
Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs. We
account for software development costs under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be
Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed." Research and development expenses are
charged to expense as incurred until technological feasibility is established,
after which remaining costs are capitalized. We define technological feasibility
as the point in time at which we have a working model of the related product.
Historically, the costs incurred during the period between the achievement of
technological feasibility and the point at which the product is available for
general release to customers have not been material. Accordingly, we charge all
internal software development costs to expense as incurred.
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, and
benefits to sales and marketing personnel, travel, trade-show participation,
public relations, and other promotional expenses. General and administrative
expenses consist primarily of salaries for financial, administrative and
management personnel, and related travel expenses, as well as occupancy,
equipment, and other administrative costs.
We had net operating loss carryforwards ("NOL's") of approximately $27.6$29.3 million
at March 31,June 30, 1999, which begin expiring in 2007. We established a valuation
allowance equal to the NOL's and all other deferred tax assets. The benefits
from these deferred tax assets will be recorded when realized, which will reduce
our effective tax rate for future taxable income, if any. Our ability to benefit
from certain NOL carryforwards is limited under Section 382 of the Internal
Revenue Code, as we are deemed to have had an ownership change of more than 50%,
as defined. Accordingly, certain NOL's may not be realizable in future years due
to the limitation.
AFFILIATE RELATIONSHIPSAffiliate Relationships
In March 1995, we, along with Technology Ventures, L.L.C. ("Technology
Ventures"), which is controlled by Joseph S. McCall, a former director of ours,
formed Clarus Professional Services, L.L.C. (formerly SQL Financial Services,
L.L.C.; the "Services Subsidiary") to provide implementation, training and
upgrade services exclusively for our customers. On February 5, 1998, Technology
Ventures sold its 20% interest in the Services Subsidiary to us in exchange for
225,000 shares of our common stock, a warrant to purchase an additional 300,000
shares of our common stock at a price of $3.67 per share, and a non-interest
bearing promissory note in the principal amount of $1.1 million. The purchase of
the remaining 20% of the Services Subsidiary was accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting and resulted in goodwill in the amount of $4.2
million, which is being amortized over 15 years.

expense was due to an increase in goodwill resulting from the acquisition of
ELEKOM Corporation in the fourth quarter of 1998.
OTHER INCOME
Interest income increased1998, as well as increases in
capital expenditures.
Non-Cash Compensation
Non-cash compensation expense decreased to $117,000$42,000, or 0.4% of total revenues,
in the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 1999, from $30,000,$749,000, or 7.2% of total revenues, in
the comparable period in 1998. Non-cash compensation expense decreased to

$803,000, or 4.3% of total revenues in the comparable period in 1998. The
increasedecrease in non-cash compensation is largely due to the recognition of a
one-time charge in the second quarter of 1998 of approximately $705,000 when the
Company accelerated the vesting of certain employee stock options issued in the
first quarter of 1998. This charge represented the previously remaining
unamortized deferred compensation recorded on these options.
Other Income
Interest income decreased to $111,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1999, from
$129,000, in the comparable period in 1998. Interest income increased to
$228,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1999, from $159,000, in the comparable
period in 1998. The decrease in interest income for the quarter ended June 30,
1999, was primarily due to additionala reduction in the average level of cash available
for investment during the quarter ended June 30, 1999, when compared to the same
quarter in 1998. The increase in the interest income for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 was attributable to an increase in the average level of cash
available for investment in the six months ended June 30, 1999, when compared to
the same period in 1998.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased 60.7% to $24,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 1999.
INCOME TAXESJune 30, 1999,

$51,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1999, from $121,000, in the comparable
period in 1998. This decrease was primarily due to lower average levels of debt
in the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to the same
periods in 1998.
Income Taxes
As a result of the operating losses incurred since our inception, we have not
recorded any provision or benefit for income taxes in the quarterquarters and six
months ended March

of our common stock at an offering price of $10.00 per share. The proceeds, net
of expenses, from this public offering of approximately $22.0 million were
placed in investment grade cash equivalents. Our working capital position was
$7.2$5.6 million and $9.0 million at March 31,June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998,

We believe that current cash balances, and cash flows from operations, and
borrowings available under our revolving working capital line of credit and
equipment facility with Silicon Valley Bank will be adequate to provide for our
capital expenditures and working capital requirements for the forseeableforeseeable
future. Although operating activities may provide cash in certain periods, to
the extent we experience growth in the future, our operating and investing
activities maywill use significant cash.
On November 6, 1998, we completed the acquisition of ELEKOM for approximately
$15.7 million, consisting of $8.0 million in cash and approximately 1.4 million
shares of our common stock. ELEKOM was merged with and into Clarus CSA, Inc.,
our wholly owned subsidiary and the separate existence of ELEKOM ceased.
Immediately following consummation of the Merger, the former ELEKOM Shareholders

price, we recorded i) payments of $500,000 made to fund the operations of ELEKOM
from October 1, 1998, through the closing date, and ii) expenses of
approximately $1.0 million to complete the merger. Approximately $10.5 million

In March 1997, we entered into a loan agreement and a master leasing agreement
for an equipment line of credit in the amount of $1.0 million (the "Equipment
Line") with a leasing company. The Equipment Line bears interest at rates
negotiated with each loan or lease schedule (generally 22.0% to 22.5%) and is
collateralized by all of the equipment purchased with the proceeds thereof. As
of March 31,June 30, 1999, the principal balance on the Equipment Line payable was
$437,000.$350,000.
We have a revolving working capital line of credit and equipment facility with
Silicon Valley Bank. Borrowings outstanding under the line are limited to the
lesser of $3.0$8.0 million or 80% of accounts receivable. Borrowings outstanding
under the equipment facility are limited to $1.0 million. Interest on the
revolving credit facility is at prime rate and on the equipment facility at

We had net operating loss carryforwards ("NOL's") of approximately $27.6$29.3 million

allowance equal to the NOL's and all other deferred tax assets. The benefits
from these deferred tax assets will be recorded when realized, which will reduce
our effective tax rate for future taxable income, if any. Our ability to benefit
from certain NOL carryforwards is limited under Section 382 of the Internal

IMPACT OF YEARImpact of Year 2000
We have designed and tested the most current versions of our products to be Year
2000 compliant. Our current products may contain undetected errors or defects
associated with Year 2000 date functions that may result in material costs to
us. Some commentators have stated that a significant amount of litigation will
arise out of Year 2000 compliance issues, and we are aware of a growing number
of lawsuits against other software vendors. Because of the unprecedented nature
of such litigation, it is uncertain whether or to what extent we may be affected
by it.
We are in the process of determining the extent to which third-party licensed
software distributed by us is Year 2000 compliant, as well as the impact of any
non-compliance on us and our customers.
Additionally, in the event relational database management systems used with our
software are not Year 2000 compliant, our customers may not be able to continue
to use our products. We do not currently believe that the effects of any Year
2000 non-compliance in our installed base of software will result in a material
adverse impact on our business or financial condition. However, we may be
exposed to potential claims resulting from system problems associated with the
century change. Such claims would not have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, or results of operations.
