1. Basis of Presentation

Commvault Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Commvault," "we," "us," or "our") is a provider of data protection and information management software applications and products. We develop, market and sell a suite of software applications and services, globally, that provides our customers with data protection solutions. We also provide our customers with a broad range of professional and customer support services.

The consolidated financial statements of Commvault as of September 30, ~~2020~~2021 and for the three and six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019~~2020 are unaudited, and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal ~~2020.~~2021. The results reported in these financial statements should not necessarily be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The ~~amounts~~amount of assets and liabilities reported in our balance sheets and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each of our periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for revenue recognition, income taxes and related reserves and ~~goodwill and purchased intangible assets.~~goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards


~~Standard~~	~~Description~~	~~Effective Date~~	~~Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements (or Other Significant Matters)~~
~~Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13 (Topic 326), Financial Instruments-Credit Losses~~	The standard amends guidance on the impairment of financial instruments. The ASU estimates credit losses based on expected losses and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The standard requires a modified retrospective basis adoption through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption.	~~We adopted this new standard as of April 1, 2020, using the modified retrospective method recognized as of the date of initial application.~~	The adoption of this new standard resulted in an $84 thousand cumulative effect on our unaudited consolidated financial statements related to an adjustment to our allowance for doubtful accounts. Under the new standard, we assess credit losses on accounts receivable by taking into consideration past collection experience, credit quality of the customer, age of the receivable balance, current economic conditions, and forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount.

Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements (or Other Significant Matters)

ASU No. 2019-12 (Topic 740), Income Taxes

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new standard to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates, and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill.

We adopted this standard as of April 1, 2021.

The standard ~~will be effective for us beginning April 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted.~~

~~We are currently evaluating the~~did not have a significant impact ~~of this standard in~~on our ~~consolidated~~ financial ~~statements, including accounting policies, processes, and systems.~~statements.

Concentration of Credit Risk

We grant credit to customers in a wide variety of industries worldwide and generally do not require collateral. Credit losses relating to these customers have historically been minimal.

Sales through our distribution agreement with Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, Inc. (“Arrow”) totaled 34% and 36% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and ~~37%~~2020, respectively. Sales with Arrow totaled 35% and 36% of total revenues for the six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. Arrow accounted for approximately ~~26%~~25% and ~~31%~~33% of total accounts receivable as of September 30, ~~2020~~2021 and March 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively.

TD SYNNEX (formerly Tech Data ~~Corporation ("Tech Data")~~Corporation) accounted for approximately ~~11%~~13% of total accounts receivable as of September 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

Equity Securities Accounted for at Net Asset Value

We held an equity interest in a private equity fund of $2.6 million as of September 30, 2021, which is accounted for under the net asset value practical expedient as permitted under ASC 820 Fair Value Measurement. This investment is included in Other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The net asset value of ~~Financial Instruments~~this investment is determined using quarterly capital statements from the fund, which is based on our contributions to the fund, allocation of profit and loss and changes in fair value of the underlying fund investment. Changes in fair value as reported on the capital statements will be recorded through profit and loss as non-operating income. This private equity fund focuses on making investments in key technology sectors, principally by investing in companies at expansion capital and growth equity stages. We have total unfunded commitments in private equity funds of $8.2 million as of September 30, 2021.

Deferred Commissions Cost

Sales commissions, bonuses, and related payroll taxes earned by our employees are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Our typical contracts include performance obligations related to software licenses, software updates, customer support and other services, including software-as-a-service offerings. In these contracts, incremental costs of obtaining a contract are allocated to the performance obligations based on the relative estimated standalone selling prices and then recognized on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer of the goods or services to which the asset relates. We do not pay commissions on annual renewals of contracts for software updates and customer support for perpetual licenses. The costs allocated to software and products are expensed at the time of sale, when revenue for the functional software license or appliance is typically recognized. The costs allocated to software updates and customer support for perpetual licenses are amortized ratably over a period of approximately five years, the expected period of benefit of the asset capitalized. We currently estimate a period of five years is appropriate based on consideration of historical average customer life and the estimated useful life of the underlying software or appliance sold as part of the transaction.

Beginning in fiscal 2022, we modified the terms of our commission plans, and as a result, the commission paid on the renewal of a term-based, or subscription software license, was not commensurate with the commission paid on the initial purchase. As a result, the cost of commissions allocated to software updates and customer support on the initial transaction are now amortized over a period of approximately five years, consistent with the accounting for these costs associated with perpetual licenses. The costs of commissions allocated to software updates and support for the renewal of term-based software licenses, is limited to the contractual period of the arrangement as we intend to pay a commensurate renewal commission upon the next renewal of the subscription license and related updates and support. This change in commission plans also resulted in a change in the estimate of the amortization period of our existing Deferred commissions cost associated with term licenses. This change in amortization period resulted in an approximately $950 and $2,050 reduction in Sales and marketing expense, than if the change in estimate did not occur, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

The ~~carrying amounts~~costs related to professional services are amortized over the period the related professional services are provided and revenue is recognized. Amortization expense related to these costs is included in Sales and marketing expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. Our short-term investments balance consists of U.S. Treasury Bills with maturities of one year or less. We account for our short-term investments as held to maturity.Operations.

3. Revenue

We derive revenues from 2 primary sources: software and products, and services. Software and products revenue includes our software and integrated appliances that combine our software with hardware. Services include customer support (software updates and technical support), consulting, assessment and design services, installation services, customer education and Commvault software-as-a-service, which is branded as Metallic.

We sell both perpetual and term-based licenses of our software. We refer to our term-based software licenses as subscription arrangements. We do not customize our software and installation services are not required. The software is delivered before related services are provided and is functional without professional services, updates and technical support. We have concluded that our software licenses (both perpetual and subscription) are functional intellectual property that is distinct as the user can benefit from the software on its own. Software revenue for both perpetual and subscription licenses is typically recognized when the software is delivered and/or made available for download as this is the point the user of the software can direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the functional intellectual property. We do not recognize software revenue related to the renewal of subscription software licenses earlier than the beginning of the new subscription period.

We also sell appliances that integrate our software with hardware and address a wide-range of business needs and use cases, ranging from support for remote or branch offices with limited IT staff up to large corporate data centers. Revenue related to appliances is recognized when control of the appliances passes to the customer; typically upon delivery. In the second half of fiscal 2021 we began transitioning to a software only model in which we sell software to a third party, which assembles an integrated appliance that is sold to end user customers. As a result, we expect the revenue and costs associated with hardware will decline from recent fiscal years.

Services revenue includes revenue from customer support and other professional services. Customer support includes software updates on a when-and-if-available basis, telephone support, integrated web-based support and bug fixes or patches. ~~The Company sells its~~We sell our customer support contracts as a percentage of net software purchases the support is related to. Customer support revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the customer support agreement, which is typically one ~~year.~~year on our perpetual licenses. The term of our subscription arrangements is typically three years.

Our other professional services include consulting, assessment and design services, installation services and customer education. Customer education services include courses taught by our instructors or third-party contractors. Revenue related to other professional services and customer education services is typically recognized as the services are performed.

In fiscal 2020 Commvault launched Metallic, which is a Commvault software-as-a-service offering. Revenue from Metallic is recognized ratably as services revenue. ~~Revenue to date from Metallic has not been material.~~

Most of our contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, we account for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices of software ~~and appliances are~~is typically estimated using the residual approach. Standalone selling prices of services are typically estimated based on observable transactions when these services are sold on a standalone basis.

Information about Contract Balances

Amounts collected in advance of services being provided are accounted for as ~~deferred~~Deferred revenue. Nearly all of our ~~deferred~~Deferred revenue balance is related to services revenue, primarily customer support contracts.

In some arrangements we allow customers to pay for term-based software licenses and products over the term of the software license. Amounts recognized as revenue in excess of amounts billed are recorded as ~~unbilled~~Unbilled receivables. Unbilled receivables, which are anticipated to be invoiced in the next twelve months, are included in Accounts receivable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Long-term unbilled receivables are included in Other assets. The opening and closing balances of our ~~accounts~~Accounts receivable, ~~unbilled~~Unbilled receivables, and ~~deferred~~Deferred revenues are as follows:

Accounts Receivable Unbilled Receivable
(current) Unbilled Receivable
(long-term)
Deferred Revenue
(current)
Deferred Revenue
(long-term)
Opening Balance as of March 31, 2020 $ 129,856 $ 17,134 $ 7,857 $ 233,497 $ 92,723
Increase/(decrease), net (12,135) 4,102 3,736 (5,720) 4,783
Ending Balance as of September 30, 2020 $ 117,721 $ 21,236 $ 11,593 $ 227,777 $ 97,506


	Accounts Receivable		Unbilled Receivable (current)		Unbilled Receivable (long-term)		Deferred Revenue (current)		Deferred Revenue (long-term)
Opening Balance as of March 31, 2021	$	168,985	$	19,141	$	7,463	$	253,211	$	119,231

Ending Balance as of September 30, 2021	$	148,613	$	17,659	$	4,502	$	247,578	$	124,833

The decrease in ~~accounts~~Accounts receivable (inclusive of ~~unbilled~~Unbilled receivables) is a result of a ~~concentration of customer support renewals in the second half of the prior fiscal year. The~~ decrease in ~~deferred revenue is primarily due to the decrease in deferred customer support revenue related to~~ software and products revenue ~~transactions and customer support renewals~~ relative to the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal ~~2020.~~year. Deferred revenue remained relatively consistent primarily as the result of an increase in deferred revenue associated with Metallic contracts that are billed upfront and recognized ratably over the contract period partially offset by a seasonal decline in deferred revenue associated with customer support contracts as the renewal of our customer support contracts is concentrated in our fiscal third and fourth quarters.

The amount of revenue recognized in the period that was included in the March 31, ~~2020~~2021 balance of deferred revenue was ~~$69,025~~$70,117 and ~~$155,728~~$160,926 for the three and six months ended September 30, ~~2020.~~2021. The vast majority of this revenue consists of customer support arrangements. The amount of software and products revenue recognized in the three and six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 related to performance obligations from prior periods was not significant.

Remaining Performance Obligations

In addition to the amounts included in deferred revenue as of September 30, ~~2020, $32,238~~2021, $37,760 of revenue may be recognized from remaining performance obligations, of which approximately ~~$3,000~~$4,300 was related to software and products. We expect the majority of this software and products revenue to be recognized during ~~the three months ended December 31, 2020.~~fiscal 2022. Most of this software and products revenue is associated with renewals of term licenses which have not yet expired. The vast majority of the services revenue is related to other professional services which may be recognized over the next twelve months but is contingent upon a number of factors, including customers’ needs and schedules.

4. ~~Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net~~

~~Goodwill~~

~~There were 0 additions, impairments or any other changes to the carrying amount of goodwill during the three and six months ended September 30, 2020.~~

~~Intangible assets, net~~

~~Intangible assets subject to amortization as of September 30, 2020 are as follows:~~

Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Impairment Charge Net Carrying Value
Developed technology $ 49,000 $ (9,800) $ (39,200) $ 0
Customer relationships 3,000 (1,500) (1,500) 0
Total intangible assets, net $ 52,000 $ (11,300) $ (40,700) $ 0

Amortization expense from acquired intangible assets was $2,825 and $5,650 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. There were 0 intangible assets subject to amortization for the three and six months ended September 30, 2019.

Our intangible assets (developed technology and customer relationships) were acquired in connection with the Hedvig, Inc. ("Hedvig") transaction. The most material of these assets was the developed technology. The value of this asset was attributable to forecasted incremental revenues directly attributable to this technology. While we have successfully integrated this technology into our existing Hyperscale technology, we have not met our forecasts for standalone sales of this acquired technology. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2021 we identified an indicator of impairment and concluded that the carrying values of the developed technology and customer relationships acquired in connection with the Hedvig transaction were not recoverable on an undiscounted basis. As a result, we remeasured the fair value of these assets and concluded their value was de minimis. We recorded a $40,700 impairment charge in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations for the ~~three months ended September 30, 2020.~~ These non-recurring fair value measurements were categorized as Level 3, as significant unobservable inputs were used in the valuation analysis. Key assumptions used in the valuation include forecasts of revenue and expenses over an extended period, the useful life of the asset, tax rates, and estimated costs of debt and equity capital to discount the projected cash flows. Certain of these assumptions involve significant judgment and are based on management’s estimate of current and forecasted market conditions.

The weighted-average fair value of awards includes the awards with a market condition described below.

Performance Based Awards

In the six months ended September 30, 2021, we granted 117 performance restricted stock units ("PSUs") to certain executives. Vesting of these awards is contingent upon i) us meeting certain revenue and non-GAAP performance goals (performance-based) in fiscal 2022 and ii) our customary service periods. The awards vest over three years. These awards generally have potential to vest at 200% based on actual fiscal 2022 performance. The related stock-based compensation expense is determined based on the value of the underlying shares on the date of grant and is recognized over the vesting term using the accelerated method. During the interim financial periods, management estimates the probable number of PSUs that would vest until the ultimate achievement of the performance goals is known. The awards are included in the restricted stock unit table.

Awards with a Market Condition

In the six months ended September 30, ~~2020,~~2021, we granted ~~299~~105 market performance stock units to certain executives. The vesting of these awards is contingent upon us meeting certain total shareholder return ("TSR") levels as compared to the Russell 3000 market index over the next three years. The awards vest in 3 annual tranches and have a maximum potential to vest at 200% ~~(598~~(210 shares) based on TSR performance. The related stock-based compensation expense is determined based on the estimated fair value of the underlying shares on the date of grant and is recognized using the accelerated method over the vesting term. The estimated fair value was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The fair value of the awards granted during the six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$36.76~~$87.74 per unit. The awards are included in the restricted stock unit ~~table above.~~table.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ~~"Purchase Plan"~~“Purchase Plan”) is a shareholder approved plan under which substantially all employees may purchase ~~Commvault’s~~our common stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market values of the stock as of the beginning or the end of ~~the~~ six-month offering periods. An employee’s payroll deductions under the Purchase Plan are limited to 10% of the employee’s salary and employees may not purchase more than $25 of stock during any calendar year. Employees purchased 85 shares in exchange for $5,160 of proceeds in the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 129 shares in exchange for $4,652 of proceeds in the six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2020. The Purchase Plan is considered compensatory and ~~136 shares in exchange for $4,833 in~~ the ~~six months ended September 30, 2019.~~fair value of the discount and look back provision are estimated using the Black-Scholes formula and recognized over the six-month withholding period prior to purchase. The total expense associated with the Purchase Plan for six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $1,567 and $1,511, ~~for~~respectively. As of September 30, 2021, there was approximately $1,291 of unrecognized cost related to the current purchase period of our Purchase Plan.

Current quarter income tax expense relates primarily to ~~expense of $2,571 in the six months ended September 30, 2019. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we recorded a~~ current tax benefit of approximately $10,000 which represented our estimate of the net operating loss carryback resulting from the CARES Act. In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we recorded an adjustment of $3,200 to reduce the current benefit of the net operating loss carryback benefit we will realize from the CARES Act.foreign taxes. In fiscal 2018, we determined that it was more likely than not that we will not realize the benefits of our gross deferred tax assets and therefore recorded a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of these gross deferred tax assets, net of the impact of the reversal of taxable temporary differences, to 0.zero. Our position remains unchanged with respect to the realizability of our deferred tax assets as of September 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

~~10.~~9. Restructuring

Our restructuring plan, initiated in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, is aimed to increase efficiency in our sales, marketing and distribution functions as well as reduce costs across all functional areas.

Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis along with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The statements in this discussion regarding our expectations of our future performance, liquidity and capital resources, and other non-historical statements are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, ~~2020.~~2021. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.

Commvault was incorporated in 1996 as a Delaware corporation. The Commvault software platform is an~~company offering customers enterprise level, ~~integrated~~intelligent data ~~and information~~ management ~~solution,~~solutions built from the ground up on a single platform and unified code base.

Commvault also providesprovide our customers with a broad range of professional ~~services that are delivered by our worldwide support and field operations.~~services.

Sources of Revenues

We derive a significant portion of our total revenues from sales of licenses of our software applications and related appliance products. We do not customize our software or products for a specific end-user customer. We sell our software applications and products to end-user customers both directly through our sales force and indirectly through our global network of value-added reseller partners, systems integrators, corporate resellers and original equipment manufacturers. Our software and products revenue was ~~43%~~44% and ~~40%~~43% of our total revenues for the six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

Our total software and products revenue in any particular period is, to a certain extent, dependent upon our ability to generate revenues from large customer software and products deals. Larger deals (transactions greater than $0.1 million) represented ~~69%~~68% and ~~63%~~69% of our total software and products revenue in the six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

Software and products revenue generated through indirect distribution channels ~~was 95%~~accounted for approximately 90% of total software and products revenue in both the six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~September 30, 2019.~~2020. Software and products revenue generated through direct distribution channels ~~was 5%~~accounted for approximately 10% of total software and products revenue in both the six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 and September 30, 2019. The dollar value of software and products revenue generated through indirect distribution channels increased $15.0 million in the six months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended September 30, 2019. The dollar value of software and products revenue generated through direct distribution channels increased $1.6 million in the six months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended September 30, 2019.2020. Deals initiated by our direct sales force are sometimes transacted through indirect channels based on end-user customer requirements, which are not always in our control and can cause this overall percentage split to vary from period-to-period. As such, there may be fluctuations in the dollars and percentage of software and products revenue generated through our direct distribution channels from time-to-time. We believe that the growth of our software and products revenue, derived from both our indirect channel partners and direct sales force, are key attributes to our long-term growth strategy. We ~~will~~plan to continue to invest in both our channel relationships and direct sales force in the future, but we continue to expect more revenue to be generated through indirect distribution channels over the long term. The failure of our indirect distribution channels or our direct sales force to effectively sell our software applications could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.

We ~~also~~ have a non-exclusive distribution agreement covering our North American commercial markets and our U.S. Federal Government market with Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, Inc. ("Arrow"), a subsidiary of Arrow Electronics, Inc. Pursuant to this distribution agreement, Arrow's primary role is to enable a more efficient and effective distribution channel for our products and services by managing our reseller partners and leveraging their own industry experience. We generated ~~36%~~35% and ~~37%~~36% of our total revenues through Arrow in the six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. If Arrow were to discontinue or reduce the sales of our products, or if

1617

our agreement with Arrow ~~was~~were terminated, and if we were unable to take back the management of our reseller channel or find another North American distributor to replace Arrow, then itsuch events would have a material adverse effect on our future business.

Our services revenue was 56% of our total revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 57% of our total revenues for the six months ended September 30, ~~2020 and 60% of our total revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2019.~~2020. Our services revenue is made up of fees from the delivery of customer support and other professional services, which are typically sold in connection with the sale of our software applications. Customer support agreements provide technical support and unspecified software updates on a when-and-if-available basis for an annual fee based on licenses purchased and the level of service subscribed. Other professional services include consulting, assessment and design services, implementation and post-deployment services and training, all of which to date have predominantly been sold in connection with the sale of software applications. Our ~~newly launched~~ software-as-a-service solution, branded Metallic, is also included in services revenue. Revenue from Metallic ~~which has not been material to date,~~ is recognized ratably over the contract period.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates’ Impact on Results of Operations

Sales outside the United States were 47% of our total revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 45% of our total revenue for the six months ended September 30, ~~2020 and 49% of our total revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2019.~~2020. The ~~results~~income statements of our non-U.S. operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates for each applicable month in a period. To the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions generally results in increased revenue, operating expenses and income from operations for our non-U.S. operations. Similarly, our revenue, operating expenses and net income will generally decrease for our non-U.S. operations if the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies.

Using the average foreign currency exchange rates from the three months ended September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, our software and products revenue would have been lower by ~~$1.1~~$0.8 million, our services revenue would have been lower by ~~$1.6~~$1.2 million, our cost of sales would have been lower by ~~$0.4~~$0.2 million and our operating expenses would have been lower by $1.2 million from non-U.S. operations for the three months ended September 30, ~~2020.~~2021. Using the average foreign currency exchange rates ~~for~~from the six months ended September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, our software and products revenue would have been lower by ~~$0.7~~$3.9 million, our services revenue would have been lower by ~~$0.4~~$5.7 million, our cost of sales would have been lower by ~~$0.2~~$1.2 million and our operating expenses would have been ~~higher~~lower by ~~$0.2~~$4.7 million from non-U.S. operations for the six months ended September 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

In addition, we are exposed to risks of foreign currency fluctuation primarily from cash balances, accounts receivables and intercompany accounts denominated in foreign currencies and are subject to the resulting transaction gains and losses, which are recorded as a component of General and administrative expenses. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $1.2 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. ~~We recognized net foreign currency transaction gain of $0.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019, and a loss of less than $0.1 million in the six months ended September 30, 2019~~

Critical Accounting Policies

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. In many instances, we could have reasonably used different accounting estimates, and in other instances changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period-to-period. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected.

In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application, while in other cases, significant judgment is required in selecting among available alternative accounting standards that allow different accounting treatment for similar transactions. We consider these policies requiring significant management judgment to be critical accounting policies. These critical accounting policies are:

•Revenue ~~Recognition;~~Recognition

•Accounting for Income Taxes

•Goodwill ~~and Purchased Intangible Assets~~

There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies during the six months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Americas, EMEA and APJ represented ~~54%~~59%, ~~31%~~30% and ~~15%~~11% of total software and products revenue, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, ~~2020.~~2021. Software and products revenue increased 9% year over year by 13% in the Americas and 3%1% in EMEA; whereas APJ declined 3%20%.

▪The increase in Americas software and products revenue was primarily the result of ~~a 9%~~an 11% increase in larger deal transactions revenue driven by an an increase in the volume of larger deal transactions.

▪EMEA software and products revenue increased as a result of ~~a 4%~~an 18% increase in revenue on larger deal transactions partially offset by a decrease on deals under $0.1 million.

▪The decrease in APJ was the result of larger deal transactions decreasing versus the prior year period, partially offset by an increase in deals under $0.1 million.

Our software and products revenue in EMEA and APJ is subject to changes in foreign exchange rates as more fully discussed above in the “Foreign Currency Exchange Rates’ Impact on Results of Operations” section.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Margin ($ in millions)

–Total cost of revenues decreased $0.2 million, and represented 15% of our total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to 16% for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

–Cost of software and products revenue decreased $5.0 million, and represented 4% of our total software and products revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to 11% for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease is the result of reduced sales of hardware associated with our appliance as well as reduced software royalties associated with sales of HyperScale appliances and software. Beginning with the launch of HyperScale X in the mid fiscal 2021, we began transitioning to a software only model. HyperScale X has also reduced software royalties relative to prior versions of HyperScale.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, ~~2020,~~2021, our cash ~~and cash equivalents~~ balance ~~of $383.2 million primarily consisted of cash. In addition, we have approximately $10.8 million of short-term investments invested in U.S. Treasury Bills.~~was $295.8 million. In recent fiscal years, our principal source of liquidity has been cash provided by operations.

As of September 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the amount of cash and cash equivalents held outside of the United States by our foreign legal entities was approximately ~~$162.7~~$172.7 million. These balances are dispersed across many international locations around the world. We believe that such dispersion meets the current and anticipated future liquidity needs of our foreign legal entities. In the event we needed to repatriate funds from outside of the United States, such repatriation would likely be subject to restrictions by local laws and/or tax consequences including foreign withholding taxes.

~~We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock under our share repurchase program during~~During the ~~three and~~ six months ended September 30, ~~2020.

Since February 1, 2021 through September 30, 2021 we have repurchased $242.2 million of common stock.

Our summarized cash flow information is as follows (in thousands):

Working capital ~~increased $59.2~~decreased $91.5 million from ~~$185.1~~$234.4 million as of March 31, ~~2020~~2021 to ~~$244.3~~$142.9 million as of September 30, ~~2020.~~2021. The net ~~increase~~decrease in working capital is primarily the result of cash ~~flow from operations.~~used for share repurchases during the quarter.

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and our cash from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital, income taxes, capital expenditures and potential stock repurchases for at least the next twelve months. We may seek additional funding through public or private financings or other arrangements during this period. Adequate funds may not be available when needed or may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities, dilution to existing stockholders will result. If we raise additional funds by obtaining loans from third parties, the terms of those financing arrangements may include negative covenants or other restrictions on our business that could impair our operational flexibility, and would also require us to fund additional interest expense. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, we may be unable to develop or enhance our products or services, take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, ~~2020,~~2021, we did not have off-balance sheet financing arrangements, including any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities.

Indemnifications

Certain of our software licensing agreements contain certain provisions that indemnify our customers from any claim, suit or proceeding arising from alleged or actual intellectual property infringement. These provisions continue in perpetuity along with our software licensing agreements. We have never incurred a liability relating to one of these indemnification provisions in the past and we believe that the likelihood of any future payout relating to these provisions is remote. Therefore, we have not recorded a liability during any period related to these indemnification provisions.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

See Note 2 of the unaudited consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the impact of recently issued accounting standards.

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

As of September 30, 2020, our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments consisted primarily of cash and U.S. Treasury Bills. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we are not subject to any material interest rate risk on these balances.None.

Foreign Currency Risk

Economic Exposure

As a global company, we face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our international sales are generally denominated in foreign currencies and this revenue could be materially affected by currency fluctuations. Approximately ~~45%~~47% of our sales were outside the United States for the six months ended September 30, ~~2020.~~2021. Our primary exposures are to fluctuations in exchange rates for the U.S. dollar versus the Euro, and to a lesser extent, the Australian dollar, British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, Chinese yuan, Indian rupee, Korean won and Singapore dollar. Changes in currency exchange rates could adversely affect our reported revenues and require us to reduce our prices to remain competitive in foreign markets, which could also have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Historically, we have periodically reviewed and revised the pricing of our products available to our customers in foreign countries and we have not maintained excess cash balances in foreign accounts.

Transaction Exposure

Our exposure to foreign currency transaction gains and losses is primarily the result of certain net receivables due from our foreign subsidiaries and customers being denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the subsidiary. Our foreign subsidiaries conduct their businesses in local currency and we generally do not maintain excess U.S. dollar cash balances in foreign accounts.

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in General and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $1.2 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. We recognized net foreign transaction gain of $0.1 million and a loss of less than $0.1 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. The net foreign currency transaction gains and losses recorded in General and administrative expenses include settlement gains and losses on forward contracts disclosed below.

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of September 30, ~~2020.~~2021. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, ~~2020.~~

2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal ~~2021~~2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Internal Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
