UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006March 31, 2007

(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands of U.S. Dollars,dollars, except per share data)

NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“Interim Financial Statements”) include the accounts of Open Text Corporation and its wholly and partially owned subsidiaries, collectively referred to as “Open Text” or the “Company”. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

These Interim Financial Statements are expressed in U.S. dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). These financial statements are based upon accounting policies and methods of their application are consistent with those used and described in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements. The Interim Financial Statements do not include all of the financial statement disclosures included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and therefore should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006.

The information furnished, as of March 31, 2007 and for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, is unaudited; however it reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.presented, and includes the financial results of Hummingbird Ltd. (“Hummingbird”), with effect from October 2, 2006, and Momentum Systems Inc. (“Momentum”), with effect from March 2, 2007. The operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006March 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for any succeeding quarter or the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2007.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. These estimates, judgments and assumptions are evaluated on an ongoing basis. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable at that time, 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 may differ from those estimates. In particular, significant estimates, judgments and assumptions include those related to: (i) revenue recognition, (ii) allowance for doubtful accounts, (iii) testing goodwill for impairment, (iv) the valuation of acquired intangible assets, (v) the valuation of long-lived assets, (vi) the recognition of contingencies, (vii) facility and restructuring accruals, (viii) acquisition accruals, (ix) asset retirement obligations, (x) realization of investment tax credits, and (xi) the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets.assets, (xii) the recognition of share-based payment expense and (xiii) the recognition of unrealized gains/losses on financial instruments.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to current period presentation including the reclassification of amortization of acquired technology intangible assets from Amortization of acquired intangible assets set forth under Operating expenses to Cost of revenue.

NOTE 2—NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of the provisions in SFAS 159 are elective; however, the amendment to FASB Statement No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”, applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS 159 is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2008. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on its financial statements.

In September 2006, the United States Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 108,Considering “Considering the Effects of Prior year Misstatements when Quantifying Current year Misstatements,

Misstatements”, (“SAB 108”).SAB 108 requires analysis of misstatements using both an income statement (rollover) approach and a balance sheet (iron curtain) approach in assessing materiality and provides for a one-time cumulative effect transition adjustment. SAB 108 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year 2007 annual financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of SAB 108 will have on its financial statements.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”)SFAS No. 157, Fair“Fair Value Measurements,Measurements”, (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. This statement is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2008. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on its financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 on Accounting for Uncertain Tax Positions—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). Under FIN 48, an entity should presume that a taxing authority will examine a tax position when evaluating theits position for recognition and measurement; therefore, assessment of the probability of the risk of examination is not appropriate. In applying the provisions of FIN 48, there will be distinct recognition and measurement evaluations. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, based solely on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the appropriate amount of the benefit to recognize. The amount of benefit to recognize will be measured as the maximum amount which is more likely than not to be realized. The tax position should be derecognized when it is no longer more likely than not of being sustained. On subsequent recognition and measurement the maximum amount which is more likely than not to be recognized at each reporting date will represent management’s best estimate, given the information available at the reporting date, even though the outcome of the tax position is not absolute or final. Subsequent recognition, derecognition, and measurement should be based on new information. A liability for interest or penalties or both will be recognized as deemed to be incurred based on the provisions of the tax law, that is, the period for which the taxing authority will begin assessing the interest or penalties or both. The amount of interest expense recognized will be based on the difference between the amount recognized in the financial statements and the benefit recognized in the tax return. On transition, the change in net assets due to applying the provisions of the final interpretation will be considered as a change in accounting principle with the cumulative effect of the change treated as an offsetting adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of transition. FIN 48 will be effective for the Company as of the beginning of the first annual period beginning after December 15, 2006 and will be adopted by the Company for the year ended June 30, 2008.July 1, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of FIN 48 will have on its financial statements.

NOTE 3—INVESTMENTS IN MARKETABLE SECURITIES

The Company’s investments in marketable securities consist of investments in the equity of Hummingbird Ltd. (“Hummingbird”). The cost of the investment is $21.1 million. Unrealized gains and losses on this investment, net of tax, are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity wherein the Company has recorded a gain, net of tax, of $206,000 and a loss, net of tax, of $45,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006, respectively. As of September 30, 2006, the fair value of this investment was approximately $21.1 million and was determined based on the closing price of Hummingbird shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

On October 2, 2006, the Company acquired all of the remaining issued and outstanding shares of Hummingbird. In view of this, the investment in the equity of Hummingbird was included as part of the cost of the acquisition of Hummingbird. For details relating to this acquisition see Note 1718 “Acquisitions” in these Notes to the Interim Financial Statements.

Pension liabilities

The Company acquired a controlling interest in IXOS in March 2004. IXOS has pension commitments to employees as well as to current and previous members of its executive board. The actuarial cost method used in determining the net periodic pension cost, with respect to the IXOS employees, is the projected unit credit method. The liabilities and annual income or expense of the Company’s pension plan are determined using methodologies that involve various actuarial assumptions, the most significant of which are the discount rate and the long-term rate of return on assets. The Company’s policy is to deposit amounts with an insurance company to cover the actuarial present value of the expected retirement benefits. The total held in short-term investmentsfair value of plan assets as of September 30, 2006March 31, 2007 was $2.6$2.8 million (June 30, 2006 - $2.62006—$2.6 million). The fair value of the pension obligation as of September 30, 2006March 31, 2007 was $3.0 million (June 30, 2006 - $3.02006—$3.0 million).

Asset retirement obligations

The Company is required to return certain of its leased facilities to their original state at the conclusion of the lease. The Company has accounted for such obligations in accordance with FASB SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (“SFAS 143”). At September 30, 2006,March 31, 2007, the present value of this obligation was $3.8$5.4 million, (June 30, 2006 - $3.92006—$3.9 million), with an undiscounted value of $4.8$7.0 million, (June 30, 2006 - $4.82006—$4.8 million). These leases were primarily assumed in connection with the IXOS acquisition.and Hummingbird acquisitions.

Excess facility obligations and acquisition related accruals relating to acquisitions

The Company has accrued for the cost of excess facilities both in connection with its Fiscal 2004 and Fiscal 2006 restructuring, as well as with a number of its acquisitions.acquisitions, including its fiscal 2007 Hummingbird acquisition. These accruals represent the Company’s best estimate in respect of future sub-lease income and costs incurred to achieve sub-tenancy. These liabilities have been recorded using present value discounting techniques and will be discharged over the term of the respective leases. The difference between the present value and actual cash paid for the excess facility will be charged to other income over the terms of the leases ranging between several monthsone year to 17 years.

Transaction-relatedAcquisition related costs include amounts provided for certain pre-acquisition contingencies.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”) and SECUnited States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable, while the options issued by the Company are subject to both vesting and restrictions on transfer. In addition, option-pricing models require input of subjective assumptions including the estimated life of the option and the expected volatility of the underlying stock over the estimated life of the option. The Company uses historical volatility as a basis for projecting the expected volatility of the underlying stock and estimates the expected life of its stock options based upon historical data.

The Company believes that the valuation technique and the approach utilized to develop the underlying assumptions are appropriate in calculating the fair value of the Company’s stock option grants. Estimates of fair value are not intended, however, to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by employees who receive equity awards.

For the three months ended September 30, 2006,March 31, 2007, the weighted-average fair value of options granted, as of the grant date, was $7.50,$10.41, using the following weighted average assumptions: expected volatility of 45%; risk-free interest rate of 4.7%; expected dividend yield of 0%; and expected life of 5.0 years. For the nine months ended March 31, 2007, the weighted-average fair value of options granted, as of the grant date, was $7.03, using the following weighted average assumptions: expected volatility of 46%; risk-free interest rate of 4.6%; expected dividend yield of 0%; expected life of 4.8 years. A forfeiture rate of 5%, based on historical rates, was used to determine the net amount of compensation expense recognized for each of these periods.

During the three months ended December 31, 2006, the Company issued a net number of 98,578 stock options to the former employees of Hummingbird in replacement of their fully vested Hummingbird stock options (“replacement options”). These options were valued using the following weighted average assumptions: expected volatility of 47%; risk-free interest rate of 4.3%; expected dividend yield of 0%; and expected life of 4.5 years, resulting in an approximate fair value of $7.30 per replacement option. Approximately $286,000 has been allocated to the cost of the Hummingbird acquisition, and the remainder will be amortized to share-based compensation cost over a vesting period of 4 years. No further replacement options have been issued by the Company during the nine months ended March 31, 2007.

**Certain options to purchase Common Shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share because the exercise price of the stock options was greater than or equal to the average price of the Common Shares, and therefore their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

**Due to the net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2005, diluted net loss per share has been calculated for that period using the basic weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding, as the inclusion of any potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive.

NOTE 12—13—INCOME TAXES

The Company operates in various tax jurisdictions, and accordingly, the Company’s income is subject to varying rates of tax. Losses incurred in one jurisdiction cannot be used to offset income taxes payable in another. The Company’s ability to use income tax losses and future income tax deductions is dependent upon the profitable operations of the Company in the tax jurisdictions in which such losses or deductions arise. As of September 30, 2006March 31, 2007 and June 30, 2006, the Company had total net deferred tax assets of $62.1$78.7 million and $65.9 million, respectively, and total deferred tax liabilities of $29.2$113.7 million and $31.7 million, respectively.

Deferred tax assets arise primarily from available income tax losses and future income tax deductions. The Company provides a valuation allowance if sufficient uncertainty exists regarding the realization of certain deferred tax assets. Taking into account the following factors: (i) the reversal of deferred income tax liabilities, (ii) projected future taxable income, (iii) the character of the income tax assets and (iv) tax planning strategies, a valuation allowance of $126.5$168.8 million and $127.5 million was requiredrecorded as of September 30, 2006March 31, 2007 and June 30, 2006, respectively. The majority of the valuation allowance relates to uncertainties regarding the utilization of foreign pre-acquisition losses of Hummingbird, Gauss Interprise AG (“Gauss”) and IXOS. The Company continues to evaluate its taxable position quarterly and considers factors by taxing jurisdiction such as estimated taxable income, the history of losses for tax purposes and the growth of the Company, among others. The principal component of the total deferred tax liabilities arises from acquired intangible assets purchased in the Hummingbird, Gauss and IXOS transactions.

NOTE 13—14—SEGMENT INFORMATION

SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” establishes standards for the reporting, by public business enterprises, of information about operating segments, products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The method of determining what information to report is based on the way that management organizes the operating segments within the Company for making operational decisions and assessments of financial performance.

The Company’s operations fall into one dominant industry segment, being enterprise content management software. The Company manages its operations, and accordingly determines its operating segments, on a geographic basis. The Company has two reportable segments: North America and Europe. The Company evaluates operating segment performance based on revenues and direct operating expenses of the segment, based on the location of the respective customers. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of accounting policies. No segments have been aggregated.

Included in the following operating results are allocations of certain operating costs that are incurred in one reporting segment but which relate to all reporting segments. The allocations of these common operating costs are consistent with the manner in which they are allocated for the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) of the Company’s analysis. For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006, and September 30, 2005, the “Other” category consists of geographic regions other than North America and Europe. Revenues from transactions that both emanate and conclude within operating segments are not considered for the purpose of this disclosure since such transactions are not reviewed by the CODM. The reclassification of certain prior period comparative figures, to conform to current period presentation, referred to in Note 1 “Basis of Presentation” to the Interim Financial Statements, did not impact information about the reportable segments, reported hereunder.

Adjusted operating margin from operating segments does not include: (i) amortization of acquired intangible assets, (ii) provision for (recovery of) restructuring charges, (iii) other income (expense), (iv) share-based compensation and (v) provision for income taxes. Goodwill and other acquired intangible assets have been

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2006

(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands of U.S. Dollars, except per share data)

assigned to segment assets based on the relative benefit that the reporting units are expected to receive from the assets, or the location of the acquired business operations to which they relate. These allocations have been made on a consistent basis.

Contribution margin does not include amortization of intangible assets, depreciation, provision for (recovery of) special charges, other income (expense), interest income (expense), minority interest, and the provision for (recovery of) income taxes.

*Net of $7.3$6.6 million of non-cancelable sublease income to be received by the Company from properties which the Company has subleased to other parties.

Rental expense of $2.3$3.9 million and $3.6$10.0 million was recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2007, respectively.

Rental expense of $1.8 million and $9.1 million was recorded during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, and September 30, 2005, respectively.

The long-term debt obligations are comprised of interest and principal payments on the 5Company’s $390.0 million term loan agreement and a five year mortgage on the Company’s headquarters in Waterloo, Ontario. For the purpose of calculating the interest on the $390.0 million term loan, LIBOR has been assumed at 5.35%, which is the three-month LIBOR rate as of March 30, 2007. For details relating to thisthe term loan and the mortgage see Note 8 in these“Long-term Debt and Credit Facilities” to the Interim Financial Statements.

The Company does not enter into off-balance sheet financing arrangements as a matter of practice except for the use of operating leases for office space, computer equipment and vehicles. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, neither the lease liability nor the underlying asset is carried on the balance sheet, as the terms of the leases do not meet the criteria for capitalization.

Domination agreements

IXOS domination agreements

On December 1, 2004, the Company announced that it had entered into a domination and profit transfer agreement (the “IXOS DA”) with IXOS. The IXOS DA came into force in August 2005 when it was registered in

OPEN TEXT CORPORATION

UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

For the Three and Nine Months Ended March 31, 2007

(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except per share data)

the commercial register at the local court in Munich. Under the terms of the IXOS DA, Open Text acquired authority to issue directives to the management of IXOS. Also within the terms of the IXOS DA, Open Text offered to purchase the remaining Common Shares of IXOS for a cash purchase price of Euro 9.38 per share (“Purchase Price”) which was the weighted average fair value of the IXOS Common Shares as of December 1, 2004. Additionally, Open Text has guaranteed a payment by IXOS to the minority shareholders of IXOS of an annual compensation of Euro 0.42 per share (“Annual Compensation”).

The IXOS DA was registered on August 23, 2005. In the quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company commenced accruing the amount payable to minority shareholders of IXOS on account of Annual Compensation. This amount has been accounted for as a “guaranteed dividend”, payable to the minority shareholders, and is recorded as a charge to minority interest in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.

OPEN TEXT CORPORATION

UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2006

(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands of U.S. Dollars, except per share data)

Based on the number of minority IXOS shareholders as of September 30, 2006,March 31, 2007, the estimated amount of Annual Compensation wasis approximately $130,000$124,000 for the three months ended SeptemberMarch 31, 2007 and $377,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2007. Additionally, an amount of approximately $397,000 was paid, against previously accrued amounts, to the IXOS minority shareholders on account of Annual Compensation for the year ended June 30, 2006. Because the Company is unable to predict, with reasonable accuracy, the number of IXOS minority shareholders in future periods, the Company is unable to predict the amount of Annual Compensation that will be payable in future years.

Certain IXOS shareholders have filed for a procedure granted under German law at the district court of Munich, Germany, asking the court to review the proposed amount of the Annual Compensation and the Purchase Price (the “IXOS Appraisal Procedures”) for the amounts offered under the IXOS DA. It cannot be predicted at this stage, whether the court will increase the Annual Compensation and/or the Purchase Price in the IXOS Appraisal Procedures. The purchase offer made under the IXOS DA will expire at the end of the IXOS Appraisal Procedures.

These disputes are a normal and probable part of the process of acquiring minority shares in Germany. The costs associated with the above mentioned shareholder objections to the proposed fair value of the Annual Compensation and the Purchase Price are direct incremental costs associated with the ongoing step acquisitions of shares held by the minority shareholders and have been deferred within Goodwill pending the outcome of the objections. The Company is unable to predict the future costs associated with these activities that will be payable in future periods.

Gauss domination agreements

Pursuant to a domination agreement dated November 4, 2003 (the “Gauss DA”) between Open Text and Gauss, Open Text has offered to purchase the remaining outstanding shares of Gauss at a price of Euro 1.06 per share (the “Gauss Purchase Price I”). As a result of certain shareholders having filed for a special court procedure to review the proposed amount of the Gauss Purchase Price I that must be payable to minority shareholders as a result of the Gauss DA, the acceptance period has been extended pursuant to German law until the end of such proceedings. In addition, in April 2004 Gauss announced that effective July 1, 2004 the shares of Gauss would cease to be listed on a stock exchange. In connection with this delisting, on July 2, 2004, a second offer by Open Text to purchase the remaining outstanding shares of Gauss at a price of Euro 1.06 per share, commenced. This acceptance period has also been extended pursuant to German law until the end of proceedings to reassess the amount of the consideration offered under German law in the delisting process. The shareholders’ resolution on the Gauss DA and on the delisting was subject to a court procedure in which certain shareholders of Gauss claimed that the resolution by which the shareholders of Gauss approved of the entering into the Gauss DA and the authorization to the management board of Gauss to file for a delisting are null and void. As a result of an out of court settlement, the complaints have been withdrawn and it has been agreed between Open Text and the minority Gauss shareholders that an amount of Euro 0.05 per share per annum will be payable as compensation to certain shareholders of Gauss under certain circumstances, but only after registration of the Squeeze Out as defined hereafter.

In Germany, once ownership of 95% of the shares of a company is obtained, an acquirer can go through a “Squeeze-Out” process which is very similar to the Domination Agreement process. The only difference is if the Squeeze Out is registered, the shares of minority shareholders are transferred automatically—by virtue of the law—to the acquirer. On August 25, 2005, at the shareholders meeting of Gauss, upon a motion of Open Text, it was decided to transfer the shares of the minority shareholders, which at the time of the shareholders’ meeting held less than 5% of the shares of Gauss, to Open Text (“Squeeze Out”). Certain shareholders of Gauss had filed suits to oppose all or some of the resolutions of the shareholders’ meeting of August 25, 2005.

On October 27, 2006, the Squeeze Out“Squeeze Out” agreement with the Gauss minority shareholders was registered in the Commercial Register in the Local Court of Hamburg. See Note 18 “Subsequent Events”Certain shareholders have filed a special procedure in these Interim Financial Statements.

The Company has recorded its best estimatethe German courts to reassess the value of the amount payablepurchase price and annual compensation. The procedure is still pending and the Company is not able to determine the minority shareholderslikely date by which such procedure will be completed.

As of Gauss under the Squeeze Out. In the three months ended September 30,December 31, 2006, the Company has accrued $7,500 for such payments, resulting in total accrualsacquired 100% of $82,500 as of September 30, 2006. The Company is currently in the process of determining the final amounts payable to shareholdersall issued and outstanding common shares of Gauss.

Company’s software products infringe certain third party intellectual property rights. In the event of such a claim, the Company is generally obligated to defend its customers against the claim and either settle the claim at the Company’s expense or pay damages that its customers are legally required to pay to the third-party claimant. These intellectual property infringement indemnification clauses generally are subject to limits based upon the amount of the license sale. Additionally, the Company’s current end-user license agreement contains a limited software warranty. The Company has not made any indemnification payments in relation to these indemnification clauses.

In connection with certain facility leases, the Company has guaranteed payments on behalf of its subsidiaries either by providing a security deposit with the landlord or through unsecured bank guarantees obtained from local banks. Additionally, the Company’s current end-user license agreement contains a limited software warranty.

The Company has not recorded a liability for guarantees, indemnities or warranties described above in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheetsheets since the maximum amount of potential future payments under such guarantees, indemnities and warranties is not determinable.

Litigation

The Company is subject from time to time to legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company’s management does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Restructuring Activities

In October 2006, we announced a restructuring plan that involves, primarily, workforce reductions, real estate optimization and legal entity reorganization. This plan involved and impacted legacy Hummingbird operations and the operations of the combined companies.

New Products

In February, we hosted “Summit 2007”, which is the worldwide user conference for Hummingbird customers and partners. At this conference we unveiled details of our next generation ECM offering, codenamed DMX. This product represents the convergence of Open Text and Hummingbird technologies. With DMX, customers will have the opportunity to take advantage of broader sets of Open Text applications, while still being able to maximize the values that they have invested in their Hummingbird enterprise deployments.

In April we hosted two “LiveLinkUp Europe” events; one in Munich and one in London, where we outlined our strategic vision for ECM and how the broader new capabilities in Livelink ECM 10 will help customers achieve enterprise transparency, leveraging it for business advantages.

Our records management offerings continue to drive our strategic relations and tight integration with partners, such as Microsoft Corporation (“Microsoft”), Oracle Inc. (“Oracle”) and SAP AG (“SAP”). The introduction of Livelink ECM—Records Management for use with SAP® applications was one of our significant announcements made in the third quarter. It will be marketed and supported by SAP and Open Text. U.S. federal government customers of SAP and Open Text will now have a fully integrated solution to help them implement comprehensive records management programs.

Partners

We rely on close cooperation with partners for sales and product development, as well as for the optimization of opportunities which arise in our competitive environment.

We continue to make significant progress with our global partner program, with emphasis on developing strategic relations and tight integration with partners, such as Microsoft, Oracle and SAP. Our revenue from partners has more than doubled in the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Partner revenue was approximately 37% of total revenue for the current quarter.

Outlook

We anticipate that our customers will continue to look for comprehensive ECM solutions that are fast, easy to deploy, and highly scalable. Overall we are seeing our pipeline continuing to build, driven across the product portfolio by the need for compliance and regulatory specific solutions.

In FiscalAs a result of our acquisition of Hummingbird, we have included the financial results of Hummingbird in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“Interim Financial Statements”) beginning October 2, 2006, the date we announced that our operational focus was on increasing near-term profitability by streamlining our operations. Inacquired 100% of the first quarter of Fiscal 2006, our Board approvedissued and we began to implement restructuring activities to streamline our operations and consolidate our excess facilities, (“Fiscal 2006 restructuring plan”). In this current quarter of Fiscal 2007, we are pleased to see our efforts materializing. Revenue has increased by 9.2%outstanding shares. The fluctuations in the three months ended September 30, 2006operating results in the current periods, compared towith the same period in the prior fiscal year, while costs of revenue have increased only slightly by 3.5% in the three months ended September 30, 2006 comparedare generally due to the same period in the prior fiscal year. As a result we have seen our gross profit increasesynergies generated by over 12.0% compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. We believe our Fiscal 2006 restructuring initiative has been successful and we expect to continue to see savings in Fiscal 2007. Absent the impact of the restructuring initiative, operating income increased by $9.0 million, in the current quarter compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, due to a combination of stronger gross margins and a general decrease in operating loss in the aftermath of the restructuring initiative.

Going forward we will continue to strive to provide customers with an independent alternative to manage information in a compliant and transparent way, while ensuring that content is safe, searchable and readily accessible. We have already taken steps to solidify our position with the acquisition of Hummingbird. In addition, we are seeing the ECM market growing by approximately 8% to 12% a year. With the acquisition of FileNet Inc. by IBM Corporation, in August 2006, we are now positioned as one of the largest independent providers of ECM solutions in the market, and we think that our independence will help us to compete more effectively, primarily because system integrators will appreciate our neutrality and will want to work with us, over vendors who may be seen as competitors.

We will also continue to adapt to market changes in the ECM sector by developing new solutions, leveraging our existing solutions and utilizing our partner programs to reach new customers, and to serve existing customers more effectively. We also expect to announce the “formal” release of Livelink ECM version 10.0, our next major product release, during the second quarter of Fiscal 2007. Livelink 10.0 is a higher “value-added” application that will offer the ability to connect with or interact with various platforms from other vendors.

this acquisition. An analysis of each of the components of our “Results of Operations” follows:follows.

Immediately upon the acquisition of Hummingbird, Open Text restructured both Hummingbird and pre-acquisition Open Text operations into one combined organization. Sales forces were aligned by either a combined vertical or geography. All back office functions such as accounting and information technology were combined to manage both operations. Our research and development teams quickly prepared integration code to combine products and features between previous Hummingbird and Open Text products. Most former Hummingbird executive management and many next levels of management personnel were terminated and primarily Open Text management assumed all responsibilities for sales, service, research and development, and general and administrative activities. In view of the shared resources, single line management and combined operations, presentation of the results of operations of Open Text and Hummingbird separately is not meaningful to this analysis.

License RevenueRevenues

License revenue consistsrevenues consist of fees earned from the licensing of software products to customers.

License revenue increased inFor the three months ended September 30, 2006March 31, 2007, license revenues increased by approximately $14.6 million, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increasesas a result of growth in license sales in Europe—our North American operations. Of the total growth achieved this quarter, North America accounted for 62.3% of the increase, followed by Europe, which contributed to 90% of this increase along with an 11% increase37.0% and the remaining growth was contributed by “Other” countries and offsetthe Other segment.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2007, license revenues increased by $32.8 million, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily as a slight decreaseresult of growth in our European license sales. Of the total growth, Europe contributed 54.9%, followed by North America, of 1%. Overall, we generated 35% of license revenue from new customers.which added 39.6% and the remaining Other segment contributed approximately 5.5% to the year-to-date growth.

Customer Support RevenueRevenues

Customer support revenue consistsrevenues consist of revenue from our customer support and maintenance agreements. These agreements allow our customers to receive technical support, enhancements and upgrades to new versions of our software products when and if available. Customer support revenue isrevenues are generated from such support and maintenance agreements relating to current year sales of software products and from the renewal of existing maintenance agreements for software licenses sold in prior periods. As our installed base grows, the renewal rate has a larger influence on customer support revenue than the current software revenue growth. Therefore, changes in customer support revenuerevenues do not necessarily correlate directly to the changes in license revenue in a given period. Typically the term of these support and maintenance agreements is twelve months, with customer renewal options. We have historically experienced a renewal rate over 90% but continue to encounter pricing pressure from our customers during contract negotiation and renewal. New license sales create additional customer support agreements which contribute substantially to the increase in our customer support revenue.

Customer support revenue increased inFor the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily because we saw, (and in almost equal amounts), increases in North America and Europe, offsetMarch 31, 2007, customer support revenues increased by a marginal decrease in the other countries.

Service Revenue

Service revenue consists of revenues from consulting contracts and contracts to provide training and integration services.

Service revenue grew modestly in the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. We are pleased to see such growth, as historically service revenue is lower in the first quarter of the fiscal year due to both our employees and our customers taking vacation time during this period, resulting in lower billable hours. We continue to see demand in North America for our SAP related ECM services, with revenue from North America growing by approximately 12%. We expect this trend to continue in the future. Our growth in North America was offset by a decrease in revenue from our global services outside of North America.

Adjusted operating margin is a non-GAAP financial measure. Such non-GAAP financial measures have certain limitations in that they do not have a standardized meaning and thus our definition may be different from similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. We use this financial measure to supplement the information provided in our consolidated financial statements, which are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The presentation of adjusted operating margin is not meant to be a substitute for net income presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but rather should be evaluated in conjunction with and as a supplement to such U.S. GAAP measures. Adjusted operating margin is calculated based on net income before including the impact of amortization of acquired intangibles, special charges, other income/expense, share-based compensation expenses“Other” geographic segment, reflected above, includes Australia, Japan, Malaysia, and the provision for taxes. These items are excluded based upon the manner in which our management evaluates our business. We believe the provision of this non-GAAP measure allows our investors to evaluate the operational and financial performance of our core business using the same evaluation measures that we use to make decisions. As such we believe this non-GAAP measure is a useful indication of our performance or expected performance of recurring operations and may facilitate period-to-period comparisons of operating performance.Middle East region.

Cost of license revenuerevenues

Cost of license revenuerevenues consists primarily of royalties payable to third parties, and product media duplication, instruction manuals and packaging expenses.

Cost of license revenues increased marginally in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2007, as a direct result of the incremental impact of Hummingbird. The increase in the gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to higher royalty and third party costs, in correlation with the increased license revenue we saw in this quarterMarch 31, 2007, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.year, was due to an overall reduction of reseller fees and reliance on third party products. The gross margins for the nine months ended March 31, 2007, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, were relatively stable, both within the 91% to 93% range.

Cost of customer support revenues

Cost of customer support revenues is comprised primarily of technical support personnel and related costs.

Cost of customer support revenues decreased slightlyincreased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006,March 31, 2007, as a direct result of the incremental impact of Hummingbird. The gross margins for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periodperiods in the prior fiscal year primarily aswere relatively stable, all within the result of a decrease in labor and labor related expenses.85% range.

Cost of service revenues

Cost of service revenues consists primarily of the costs of providing integration, customization and training with respect to our various software products. The most significant component of these costs is personnel and related expenses. The other components include travel costs and third party subcontracting.

Cost of service revenues increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006March 31, 2007, as a direct result of the incremental impact of Hummingbird. Gross margins for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2007 declined compared to the same periodperiods in the prior fiscal year, as a result of the increased revenues. The increase in costs was lower than the increase in revenues, which favorably increased services’ gross margins in the current quarter compareddue to the same period in the prior year. This favorable increase in margins was in part due to a reclassificationintegration and reorganization of revenue and expenses we made between Customer support and Service. For further details regarding this reclassification please see Note 1 “Basis of Presentation” under Part I of this Quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Amortization of acquired technology intangible assets

Amortization of acquired intangible assets includes the amortization of patents and customer assets. Amortization of acquired technology is included as an element of cost of sales. The slight increase in amortization of acquired technology intangible assets in the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, is primarily the result of additional amortization resulting from the increase in our ownership of IXOS.combined entity.

Share-based compensation expense

On July 1, 2005, we adopted the fair value-based method for measurement and cost recognition of employee share-based compensation under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No 123 (Revised 2004) “Share-Based Payments” (“SFAS 123R,123R”), using the modified prospective application transitional approach. Previously, we had been accounting for employee share-based compensation using the intrinsic value method, which generally did not result in any compensation cost being recorded for stock options since the exercise price was equal to the market price of the underlying shares on the date of grant. Under

We are currently in the process of determining the estimates

of the amounts expected(“Fiscal 2007 restructuring plan”). Total costs to be incurred in connectionconjunction with this initiative. As part of this integration, we are reducing our worldwide workforce of 3,500 people by approximately 15 percent. The restructuring actions commenced in October 2006 and to date, approximately 60 percent of these reductions have been completed. The remaining staff reductionsthe plan are expected to be completedapproximately $7.0 million, of which $993,000 and $6.1 million has been recorded within Special charges in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2007,

respectively. The charge consisted primarily of costs associated with workforce reduction and abandonment of excess facilities, and are expected to be paid by the endDecember 31, 2008, and August 31, 2010, respectively. However on a quarterly basis, we will conduct an evaluation of November, 2006. The staff reductions will be focused on redundant positions or areasthese balances and revise our assumptions and estimates, as appropriate.

In the first quarter of Fiscal 2006,three months ended September 30, 2005, our Board approved, and we began to implement restructuring activities to streamline our operations and consolidate our excess facilities (“Fiscal 2006 restructuring plan”). These charges relate to work force reductions, abandonment of excess facilities and other miscellaneous direct costs. Total costs to be incurred in conjunction with the Fiscal 2006 restructuring plan are expected to be approximately $22.0 million. On a quarterly basis, we conduct an evaluation of these balances and revise our assumptions and estimates, as appropriate. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006,March 31, 2007, we recorded recoveries from special charges of $468,000.$115,000 and $842,000, respectively. The provision related to workforce reduction is expected to be substantially paid by December 31, 2006September 30, 2007, and the provisions relating to the abandonment of excess facilities, such as contract settlements and lease costs, are expected to be paid by January 2014.

Fiscal 2004 Restructuring

In the three months ended March 31, 2004, we recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $10$10.0 million relating primarily to our North America segment.segment (“Fiscal 2004 Restructuring Plan”). The charge consisted primarily of costs associated with a workforce reduction, excess facilities associated with the integration of the IXOS acquisition, write downs of capital assets and legal costs related to the termination of facilities. All actions relating to employer workforce reductions were completed, and the related costs expended as of March 31, 2006. On a quarterly basis, we conduct an evaluation of these balances and we revise our assumptions and estimates, as appropriate. All actions relating to work force reduction were completed, and the related costs expended, as of March 31, 2006.

Income taxes

We recorded a tax provision for income taxes of $4.3$1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006March 31, 2007 compared to a recovery of $4.4$2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005.March 31, 2006. This is as a result of positive net incomedecrease in the current quarter (versus a loss in the same period in the prior fiscal year) and the impact ofprovision for income taxes is related to higher income being earned in jurisdictions with a higherlower statutory rate.

Our deferred tax assets, totaling $247.5 million, are based upon available income tax losses and future income tax deductions. Our ability to use these income tax losses and future income tax deductions is dependent upon us generating income in the tax jurisdictions in which such losses or deductions arose. The recognized deferred tax liability of $113.7 million is primarily made up of three components. The first component relates to $106.8 million arising from the amortization of timing differences relating to acquired intangible assets and future income inclusions. The second component, of $3.0 million, relates primarily to deferred credits arising from non capital losses and un-deducted scientific research and development experimental expenditures acquired at a discount on asset acquisitions, which will be included in income as they are utilized. The third component, of $3.9 million, relates to other timing differences. We record a valuation allowance against deferred income tax assets when we believe it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. Based on the reversal of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, the character of the income tax asset and tax planning strategies, we have determined that a valuation allowance of

$168.8 million is recorded in respect of our deferred income tax assets as at March 31, 2007. (A valuation allowance of $127.5 million was required for the deferred income tax assets as at June 30, 2006). This valuation allowance is primarily attributable to valuation allowances set up based on losses incurred in the year in certain foreign jurisdictions. In order to fully utilize the recognized deferred income tax assets of $78.7 million, we will need to generate aggregate future taxable income in applicable jurisdictions of approximately $191.9 million. Based on our current projection of taxable income, for the periods in the jurisdictions in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, we believe that it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefit of the recognized deferred income tax assets as of March 31, 2007.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

NetThe increase in operating cash provided by operating activities increased by $9.4flow of $12.6 million induring the three months ended September 30, 2006March 31, 2007, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, was primarily as a result of an increase in net income of approximately $20.2 million,due to an increase in the impact of non-cash charges of $5.7 million offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $16.5$20.3 million offset by a reduction of non-cash charges of $4.2 million and a reduction of $3.5 million in net income for the period.

The increase in operating cash flow of $37.0 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2007 was primarily due to an increase in net income of $16.3 million, the impact of non-cash charges of $2.2 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $18.5 million.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

NetThe increase in net cash used in investing activities decreased by approximately $7.0of $8.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2006March 31, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The overall decreaseyear, was primarily due to a reduction$4.1 million in capital expenditures of $3.2 million,cash, paid for Momentum and reduced spending on prior period acquisitions (including IXOS) of $6.1 million. The decrease was offset by an increase in acquisition related costs of $2.3$6.3 million which includes a paymentoffset by reduction in capital expenditures of $829,000 forapproximately $2.0 million.

The increase in net cash used in investing activities of $396.0 million during the open market purchase of Hummingbird shares in June 2006.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing increased marginally by $274,000 in the threenine months ended September 30, 2006March 31, 2007, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. This increaseyear, was primarily due to increased$384.8 million in cash, paid for Hummingbird, $4.1 million in cash, paid for Momentum, and an increase in acquisition related costs of $24.7 million, offset by a reduction in capital expenditures of approximately $12.2 million and lower cash outlays on prior period acquisitions of $6.1 million.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

The increase in net cash provided by financing activities of $4.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared, to the same period in the prior fiscal year, was mainly due to a $4.8 million increase in the proceeds onreceived from the issuance of our common shares,Common Shares, offset by paymentsa $1.0 million repayment on our long-term debt.

The increase in net cash provided by financing activities of $373.2 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year was mainly due to a $377.1 million increase in our bank financing and a $5.4 million increase in the proceeds we madereceived from the issuance of our Common shares. These increases were offset by debt issuance costs in the amount of $7.4 million and debt repayments of $2.2 million.

Term loan and Revolver

On October 2, 2006, we entered into a $465.0 million credit agreement with a Canadian chartered bank consisting of a $390.0 million term loan facility and a $75.0 million committed revolving long-term credit facility (the “revolver”). The term loan was used to partially finance the Hummingbird acquisition and the revolver will be used for general business purposes. The credit agreement is guaranteed by us and certain of our subsidiaries.

Term loan

The term loan has a seven year term expiring on October 2, 2013, and bears interest at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 2.50%. The term loan principal repayments are equal to 0.25% ($975,000) of the original principal amount, due each quarter with the remainder due at the end of the term.

On May 2, 2007, we announced that we would be making an additional payment of $30.0 million against the term loan in May 2007. This pre-payment is within the terms of our lending agreement. See Note 19 “Subsequent Events” to the Interim Financial Statements.

In October 2006, we also entered into an interest-rate collar agreement that has the economic effect of circumscribing the floating portion of the interest rate obligations associated with $195.0 million of the term loan, within an upper limit of 5.34% and a lower limit of 4.79%.

Revolver

The revolver has a five year term and expires on October 2, 2011. Borrowings under this facility bear interest at rates specified in the credit agreement. The revolver replaced a CAD $40.0 million line of credit that we previously had with the same bank. There were no borrowings outstanding under the revolver as of March 31, 2007.

The credit agreement covering the term loan, the revolver and the term loan agreement relating to a mortgage on our mortgage financing.Waterloo building also contain covenants that require us to maintain certain financial ratios. As of March 31, 2007 we were in compliance with all such covenants.

We believe funds generated from the expected results of operations, and available cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to finance our strategic initiatives for the next fiscal year. In addition, our revolving credit facility is available for additional working capital needs or investment opportunities. There can be no assurance, however, that we will continue to generate cash flows, at or above, current levels or that we will be able to maintain our ability to borrow under our revolving credit facility.

Repurchase Program

On May 2, 2007, we filed a notice of intention with the Ontario Securities Commission to make a normal course issuer bid to repurchase up to a maximum of 2,494,053 Common Shares on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”) (“Repurchase Program”). Repurchases, if any are made, will be determined by our Board of Directors and will begin on or after May 7, 2007, in accordance with the rules and regulations of the

NASDAQ. This Repurchase Program will terminate on the earlier of May 6, 2008, or the date on which a total of 2,494,053 Common Shares have been repurchased pursuant to its terms. For details, see Note 19 “Subsequent Events” to the Interim Financial Statements.

Rental expense of $1.8 million and $9.1 million was recorded during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, and September 30, 2005, respectively.

The long-term debt obligations are comprised of interest and principal payments on our $390.0 million term loan agreement and a 5 year mortgage on our headquarters in Waterloo, Ontario.

IXOS domination agreementsagreement

We have guaranteed a payment by IXOS to the minority shareholders of IXOS of an annual compensation of Euro 0.42 per share (“Annual Compensation”).

The IXOS domination agreement was registered on August 23, 2005. In the quarter ended September 30, 2005, we commenced accruing the amount payable to minority shareholders of IXOS on account of Annual Compensation. This amount has been accounted for as a “guaranteed dividend”, payable to the minority shareholders, and is recorded as a charge to minority interest in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.

Based on the number of minority IXOS shareholders as of September 30, 2006,March 31, 2007, the estimated amount of Annual Compensation payable to IXOS minority shareholder was approximately $130,000$124,000 for the three months ended SeptemberMarch 31, 2007 and $377,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2007. Additionally, an amount of approximately $397,000 was paid, against previously accrued amounts, to the IXOS minority shareholders on account of Annual Compensation for the year ended June 30, 2006. Because we are unable to predict, with reasonable accuracy, the number of IXOS minority shareholders that will be on record in future periods, we are unable to predict the amount of Annual Compensation that will be payable in future years.

Certain IXOS shareholders have filed for a procedure granted under German law at the district court of Munich, Germany, asking the court to review the proposed amount of the Annual Compensation and the Purchase Price for the amounts offered under the IXOS DA. It cannot be predicted at this stage, whether the court will increase the Annual Compensation and/or the Purchase Price.

The costs associated with the above mentioned procedure are direct incremental costs associated with the ongoing step acquisitions of shares held by the minority shareholders. These disputes are a normal and probable part of the process of acquiring minority shares in Germany. We are unable to predict the future costs associated with these activities that will be payable in future periods.

For further details relating to the IXOS domination agreement refer to Note 15 “Commitments and Contingencies” in our Unaudited Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Gauss Squeeze Out

The Gauss Squeeze court administered process was successfully concluded in October 2006 and registered with the local court in Hamburg.

We have recorded our best estimate of the amount payable to the minority shareholders of Gauss under the Squeeze Out. As of September 30, 2006, we had accrued $82,500 for such payments.

For further details relating to the Gauss Squeeze Out refer to Note 15 “Commitments and Contingencies” in our Unaudited Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Litigation

We are subject fromFrom time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with

certainty, our management does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations orand cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not enter into off-balance sheet financing as a matter of practice except for the use of operating leases for office space, computer equipment, and vehicles. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, neither the lease liability nor the underlying asset is carried on the balance sheet, as the terms of the leases do not meet the criteria for capitalization.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” “SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of the provisions in SFAS 159 are elective; however, the amendment to FASB Statement No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”, applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS 159 is effective for us beginning July 1, 2008. We are currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the United States Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 108,Considering “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Current Year Misstatements,(“Misstatements”, (“SAB 108”).SAB 108 requires analysis of misstatements using both an income statement (rollover) approach and a balance sheet (iron curtain) approach in assessing materiality and provides for a one-time cumulative effect transition adjustment. SAB 108 is effective for our fiscal year 2007 annual financial statements. We are currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of SAB 108 will have on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157,Fair Value Measurements,, (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. This statement is effective for us beginning July 1, 2008. We are currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on our financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 on Accounting for Uncertain Tax Positions—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). Under FIN 48, an entity should presume that a taxing authority will examine aits tax position when evaluating the position for recognition and measurement; therefore, assessment of the probability of the risk of examination is not appropriate. In applying the provisions of FIN 48, there will be distinct recognition and measurement evaluations. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, based solely on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the appropriate amount of the benefit to recognize. The amount of benefit to recognize will be measured as the maximum amount which is more likely than not, to be realized. The tax position should be derecognized when it is no longer more likely than not of being sustained. On subsequent recognition and measurement the maximum amount which is more likely than not to be recognized at each reporting date will represent management’s best estimate, given the

information available at the reporting date, even though the outcome of the tax position is not absolute or final. Subsequent recognition, derecognition, and measurement should be based on new information. A liability for interest or penalties or both will be recognized as deemed to be incurred based on the provisions of the tax law,

that is, the period for which the taxing authority will begin assessing the interest or penalties or both. The amount of interest expense recognized will be based on the difference between the amount recognized in the financial statements and the benefit recognized in the tax return. On transition, the change in net assets due to applying the provisions of the final interpretation will be considered as a change in accounting principle with the cumulative effect of the change treated as an offsetting adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of transition. FIN 48 will be effective for us as of the beginning of the first annual period beginning after December 15, 2006 and will be adopted by us for the year ended June 30, 2008.July 1, 2007. We are currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of FIN 48 will have on our financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

For a discussion of the critical accounting policies that affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements, please refer to our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2006.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are primarily exposed to market risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest rate risk

Our exposure to interest rate fluctuations relates primarily to our term loan, as we had no borrowings outstanding under our line of credit at March 31, 2007. The term loan bears a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.5%. As of March 31, 2007, an adverse change in LIBOR of 100 basis points (1.0%) would have the effect of increasing our annual interest payment on the term loan by approximately $3.9 million assuming the loan balance as of March 31, 2007 is outstanding for the entire period.

We manage our interest rate exposure, relating to 50% of the above mentioned term loan, with an interest rate collar that partially hedges the fluctuation in LIBOR. The collar has a notional value of $195.0 million, a cap rate of 5.34% and a floor rate of 4.79%. This has the effect of circumscribing our maximum floating interest rate risk within the range of 5.34% to 4.79%. The collar expires in December 2009.

Foreign currency risk

Businesses generally conduct transactions in their local currency which is also known as their functional currency. Additionally, balances that are denominated in a currency other than the entity’s reporting currency must be adjusted to reflect changes in foreign exchange rates during the reporting period.

As we operate internationally, aA substantial portion of our business is also conductedcash and cash equivalents are held in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Accordingly,dollar, on account of our results are affected,global operations. As of March 31, 2007, this balance represented approximately 71% of our total cash and may be affected in the future, by exchange rate fluctuations of the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar, to various European currencies, and, to a lesser extent, other foreign currencies. Revenues and expenses generated in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates during the month in which the transaction occurs. We cannot predict the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations in the future; however, if significant foreign exchange losses are experienced, they could have a materialcash equivalents. A 10% adverse effect on our results of operations. Moreover, in any given quarter, exchange rates can impact revenue adversely.

We have net monetary asset and liability balances in foreign currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, including primarily the Euro (“EUR”), the Pound Sterling (“GBP”), the Canadian Dollar (“CDN”), and the Swiss Franc (“CHF”). Currently, we do not use financial instruments to hedge operating expenses in foreign currencies.

The following tables provide a sensitivity analysis on our exposure to changeschange in foreign exchange rates. For foreign currencies where we engage in material transactions, the following table quantifies the absolute impact that a 10% increase/decrease againstrates versus the U.S. dollar would have had ondecreased our totalreported cash and cash equivalents by approximately 7%.

Our global operations expose us to foreign currency fluctuations. Revenues and related expenses generated from our international subsidiaries are generally denominated in the functional currencies of the local countries. Our primary currencies include Euros, Canadian Dollars, Swiss Francs and British Pounds. The unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income of our global operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in each applicable period. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the foreign currency conversion of these foreign currency denominated transactions into U.S. dollars results in reduced revenues, operating expenses and net income for our international operations. Similarly, our revenues, operating expenses and net income will increase for our international operations, if the three months ended September 30, 2006. This analysisU.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies. We cannot predict the effect foreign exchange fluctuations will have on our results going forward. However, if there is presented in both functional and transactional currency. Functional currency represents the currency of measurement for each of an entity’s domestic and foreign operations. Transactional currency represents the currency in which the underlying transactions take place. The impact of changesadverse change in foreign exchange rates for those foreign currencies not presented in these tables is not material.versus the U.S. dollar, it could have a material effect on our results of operations.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15 (e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that material information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Based on the evaluation completed by our management, in which our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer participated, our management has concluded that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006March 31, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A.Risk Factors

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Risk Factors

In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is subject to the safe harbors created by those sections. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks as well as uncertainties, including those discussed in the following cautionary statements and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The actual results that we achieve may differ materially from any forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s opinions only as of the date hereof. You should carefully review the following factors, as well as the other information set forth herein, when evaluating us and our business. If any of the following risks were to occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations would likely suffer. In that event, the trading price of our Common Shares would likely decline. Such risks are further discussed from time to time in our filings filed from time to time with the SEC.

Our acquisition of Hummingbird may adversely affect our operations and finances in the short term

On October 2, 2006 we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Hummingbird Ltd.(“Hummingbird”) for a price of $27.85 per share, which equaled a total purchase price of approximately $494.0 million.Hummingbird. The Hummingbird shares were acquired for cash, which required us to borrow the necessary funds from a syndicate of leading financial institutions to help to pay for the Hummingbird acquisition. The interest costs associated with this credit facility will materially increase our operating expenses, which may materially and adversely affect our profitability andas well as the price of our Common Shares. The Hummingbird acquisition represents a significant and unique opportunity for our business. However, the size of the acquisition and the inevitable integration challenges that will result from the acquisition may divert management’s attention from the normal daily operations of our existing businesses, products and services. We cannot ensure that we will be successful in retaining key Hummingbird employees andemployees. In addition, our operations may be disrupted if we fail to adequately retain and motivate all of the employees of the newly merged entity.

Our success depends on our relationships with strategic partners

We rely on close cooperation with partners for sales and product development as well as to optimizefor the optimization of opportunities which arise in our competitive environment. If any of our partners should decide for any reason to terminate or scale back their cooperative efforts with us, our business, operating results, and financial condition may be adversely affected.

If we do not continue to develop new technologically advanced products, future revenues will be negatively affected

Our success depends upon our ability to design, develop, test, market, license and support new software products and enhancements of current products on a timely basis in response to both competitive productsthreats and evolving demands of the marketplace.marketplace demands. In addition, new software products and enhancements must remain compatible with standard platforms and file formats. We continue to enhance the capability of our Livelink software to enable users to form workgroups and collaborate on private intranets as well as on the Internet. Often, we must integrate software licensed or acquired from third parties with our ownproprietary software to create or improve our products. These products are important to the success of our strategy, and ifstrategy. If we are unable to achieve a successful integration with third party software, we may not be successful in developing and marketing our new software products and enhancements. If we are unable to successfully integrate the technologies licensed or acquired from third parties, to develop new software products and enhancements to existing products, or to complete products currently under development, which we license or acquire from third parties our operating results will materially suffer. In addition, if the

integrated or new products or enhancements do not achieve market acceptance by the marketplace, our operating results will materially suffer. Also, if new industry standards emerge that we do not anticipate or adapt to, our software products could be rendered obsolete and, as a result, our business, as well as our ability to compete in the marketplace, would be materially harmed.

If our products and services do not gain market acceptance, we may not be able to increase our revenues

We intend to pursue our strategy of growing the capabilities of our ECM software offerings through our proprietary research and development of new product offerings. In response to customer requests, we continue to enhance Livelink and many of our optional components and we continue to set the standard for ECM capabilities. The primary market for our software and services is rapidly evolving. Since we operate in a rapidly evolving industry,which means that the level of acceptance of products and services that have been released recently or that are planned for future release by the marketplace is not certain. If the markets for our products and services fail to develop, develop more slowly than expected or become subject to intense competition, our business will suffer. As a result, we may be unable to: (i) successfully market our current products and services, (ii) develop new software products, services and enhancements to current products and services, (iii) complete customer installations on a timely basis, or (iv) complete products and services currently under development. If our products and services are not accepted by our customers or by other businesses in the marketplace, our business and operating results will be materially affected.

Current and future competitors could have a significant impact on our ability to generate future revenue and profits

The markets for our products are intensely competitive, and are subject to rapid technological change and other pressures created by changes in our industry. We expect competition to increase and intensify in the future as the pace of technological change and adaptation quickens and as additional companies enter into each of our markets. Numerous releases of competitive products have occurred in recent history and can be expected to continue in the near future. We may not be able to compete effectively with current competitors and potential entrants into our marketplace. If other businesses were to engage in aggressive pricing policies with respect to competing products, or if the dynamics in our marketplace dictatedresulted in increasing bargaining power by the developmentconsumers of significant price competition,our products and services, we would need to lower our prices. This could result in lower revenues or reduced margins, either of which may materially and adversely affect our business and operating results.

We are confronting two inexorable trends in our industry; the consolidation of our competitors and the commoditization of our products and services

The acquisition of Documentum Inc. by EMC Corporation (“EMC”) in December 2003 and International Business Machine (“IBM”)Machines Corporation’s acquisition of FileNet Corporation in October 2006 have changed the marketplace for our goods and services. As a result of these acquisitions, two comparable competitors to our company have been replaced by larger and better capitalized companies. In addition, other large corporations with considerable financial resources either have products that compete with the products we offer, or have the ability to encroach on our competitive position within our marketplace. These large, well-capitalized companies have the financial resources to engage in competition with our products and services on the basis of marketing, services or support. They also have the ability to introduce items that compete with our maturing products and services. For example, Microsoft has launched SharePoint, a product which provides the same benefits that some of our ECM products provide at a lower cost to the customer. The threat posed by larger competitors and the goods and services that these companies can produce at a lower cost to our target customers may materially increase our expenses and reduce our revenues. Any material adverse effect on our revenue or cost structure may materially reduce the price of our common shares.Common Shares.

Acquisitions, investments, joint ventures and other business initiatives may negatively affect our operating results

We continue to seek out opportunities to acquire or invest in businesses, products and technologies that expand, complement or are otherwise relatedrelate to our current business. We also consider from time to time, opportunities to engage in joint ventures or other business collaborations with third parties to address particular market segments. These activities create risks such as the need to integrate and manage the businesses and products acquired with our own business and products, additional demands on our management, resources, systems, procedures and controls, disruption of our ongoing business, and diversion of management’s attention

from other business concerns. Moreover, these transactions could involve substantial investment of funds and/or technology transfers and the acquisition or disposition of product lines or businesses. Also, such activities could result in one-time charges and expenses and have the potential to either dilute the interests of existing shareholders or result in the assumption of debt. Such acquisitions, investments, joint ventures or other business collaborations may involve significant commitments of financial and other resources of our company. Any such activity may not be successful in generating revenue, income or other returns to us, and the financial or other resources committed to such activities will not be available to us for other purposes. For example, the Hummingbird Connectivity family of products maintains a dominant position in its marketplace. As a result, future growth opportunities could be limited for this family of products. Our inability to address theselimited growth opportunities for this family of products, as well our inability to address other risks couldassociated with other acquisitions or investments in businesses, may negatively affect our operating results.

Businesses we acquire may have disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting that are weaker than or otherwise not in conformity with ours

We have a history of acquiring complementary businesses with varying levels of organizational size and complexity. Upon consummating an acquisition, we seek to implement our disclosure controls and procedures as well as our internal controls over financial reporting at the acquired company as promptly as possible. Depending upon the size and complexity of the business acquired, the implementation of our disclosure controls and procedures as well as the implementation of our internal controls over financial reporting at an acquired company may be a lengthy process. Typically, we conduct due diligence prior to consummating an acquisition, however, our integration efforts may periodically expose deficiencies in the disclosure controls and procedures as well as in internal controls over financial reporting of an acquired company. We expect that the process involved in completing the integration of our own disclosure controls and procedures as well as our own internal controls over financial reporting at an acquired business will sufficiently correct any identified deficiencies. However, if such deficiencies exist, we may not be in a position to comply with our periodic reporting requirements and, as a result, our business and financial condition may be materially harmed.

The length of our sales cycle can fluctuate significantly which could result in significant fluctuations in license revenue being recognized from quarter to quarter

The decision by a customer to purchase our products often involves a comprehensive implementation process across our customer’s network or networks. As a result, licenses of these products may entail a significant commitment of resources by prospective customers, accompanied by the attendant risks and delays frequently associated with significant expenditures and lengthy sales cycle and implementation procedures. Given the significant investment and commitment of resources required by an organization to implement our software, our sales cycle can tend tomay be longer than generally expected.compared to companies in other industries. Over the past fiscal year, we have experienced a lengthening of our sales cycle as customers include more personnel in their decisions and focus on more enterprise-wide licensing deals. In an economic environment of reduced information technology spending, it canmay take several months, or even several quarters, for sellingmarketing opportunities to materialize. If a customer’s decision to license our software is delayed or if the installation of our products takes longer than originally anticipated, the date on which we may recognize revenue from these licenses would be delayed. Such delays could cause our revenues to be lower than expected in a particular period.

Our international operations expose us to business risks that could cause our operating results to suffer

We intend to continue to make efforts to increase our international operations and anticipate that international sales will continue to account for a significant portion of our revenue. We have increased our presence in the European market, especially since our acquisition of IXOS Software AG (“IXOS”). These international operations are subject to certain risks and costs, including the difficulty and expense of administering business and compliance abroad, compliance with both domestic and foreign laws, compliance with domestic and international import and export laws and regulations, costs related to localizing products for foreign markets, and costs related

to translating and distributing products in a timely manner. International operations also tend to be subject to a longer sales and collection cycle. In addition, regulatory limitations regarding the repatriation of earnings may adversely affect cash drawls from foreign operations. Significant international sales may also expose us to greater risk from political and economic instability, unexpected changes in Canadian, United States or other governmental policies concerning import and export of goods and technology, regulatory requirements, tariffs and other trade barriers. In addition, international earnings may be subject to taxation by more than one jurisdiction, which could also materially adversely affect our effective tax rate. Also, international expansion may be more difficult, time consuming, and costly. As a result, if revenues from international operations do not offset the expenses of establishing and maintaining foreign operations, our operating results will suffer. Moreover, in any given quarter, foreign exchange rates can impact revenue adversely.

Our expenses may not match anticipated revenues

We incur operating expenses based upon anticipated revenue trends. Since a high percentage of these expenses are relatively fixed, a delay in recognizing revenue from license transactions related to these expenses could cause significant variations in operating results from quarter to quarter and, as a result thissuch a delay could materially reduce operating income. If these expenses are not subsequently followed by revenues, our business, financial condition, or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, in July 2005, we announced our 2006 restructuring initiative to restructure our operations with the intention of streamlining our operations. Subsequently, in October 2006 we announced our commitment to a separate restructuring initiative in response to the aftermath of our acquisition of Hummingbird.Hummingbird acquisition. We will continue to evaluate our operations, and may propose future restructuring actions as a result of changes in the marketplace, including the exit from less profitable operations or the decision to terminate services which are not valued by our customers. Any failure to successfully execute these initiatives on a timely basis may have a material adverse impact on our operations.

Our products may contain defects that could harm our reputation, be costly to correct, delay revenues, and expose us to litigation

Our products are highly complex and sophisticated and, from time to time, may contain design defects or software errors that are difficult to detect and correct. Errors may be found in new software products or improvements to existing products after commencement of shipments to our customers. If these defects are discovered, we may not be able to successfully correct such errors in a timely manner. In addition, despite the extensive tests we conduct on all our products, we may not be able to fully simulate the environment in which our products will operate and, as a result, we may be unable to adequately detect the design defects or software errors which may become apparent only after the products are installed in an end-user’s network. The occurrence of errors and failures in our products could result in the delay or the denial of market acceptance of our products; alleviating such errors and failures may require us to make significant expenditure of our resources. The harm to our reputation resulting from product errors and failures may be materially damaging. Since, we regularly provide a warranty with our products, the financial impact of fulfilling warranty obligations may be significant in the future. Our agreements with our strategic partners and end-users typically contain provisions designed to limit our exposure to claims. These agreements usually contain terms such as the exclusion of all implied warranties and the limitation of the availability of consequential or incidental damages. However, such provisions may not effectively protect us against claims and the attendant liabilities and costs associated with

such claims. Although we maintain errors and omissions insurance coverage and comprehensive liability insurance coverage, such coverage may not be adequate to cover all such claims. Accordingly, any such claim could negatively affect our financial condition.

Failure to protect our intellectual property could harm our ability to compete effectively

We are highly dependent on our ability to protect our proprietary technology. We rely on a combination of copyright, patent, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as non-disclosure agreements and other contractual provisions to establish and maintain our proprietary rights. Although we hold certain patents and have other

patents pending, our general strategy is to not seek patent protection. Although we intend to protect our rights vigorously, there can be no assurance that these measures will, in all cases, be successful. Enforcement of our intellectual property rights may be difficult, particularly in some nations outside of North America in which we seek to market our products. While U.S. and Canadian copyright laws, international conventions and international treaties may provide meaningful protection against unauthorized duplication of software, the laws of some foreign jurisdictions may not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of Canada or of the United States. Software piracy has been, and is expected to be, a persistent problem for the software industry. Certain of our license arrangements have required us to make a limited confidential disclosure of portions of the source code for our products, or to place such source code into an escrow for the protection of another party. Despite the precautions we have taken, unauthorized third parties, including our competitors, may be able to copy certain portions of our products or to reverse engineer or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Also, our competitors could independently develop technologies that are perceived to be substantially equivalent or superior to our technologies. Our competitive position may be affected by our ability to protect our intellectual property.

Other companies may claim that we infringe their intellectual property, which could materially increase costs and materially harm our ability to generate future revenue and profits

Claims of infringement are becoming increasingly common as the software industry develops and as related legal protections, including patents, are applied to software products. Although we do not believe that our products infringe on the rights of third-parties, third-parties may assert infringement claims against us in the future. Although most of our technology is proprietary in nature, we do include certain third party software in our products. In these cases, this software is licensed from the entity holding our intellectual property rights. Although we believe that we have secured proper licenses for all third-party software that has beenis integrated into our products, third parties may assert infringement claims against us in the future, and any such assertion may result in litigation or may require us to obtain a license for the intellectual property rights of third-parties. Such licenses may not be available, or they may not be available on reasonable terms. In addition, such litigation could be disruptive to our ability to generate revenue and may result in significantly increased costs as a result of our defense against those claims or our attempt to license the patents or rework our products to ensure they comply with judicial decisions. Any of the foregoing could have a significant impact on our ability to generate future revenue and profits.

The loss of licenses to use third party software or the lack of support or enhancement of such software could adversely affect our business

We currently depend on certain third-party software. If such software was not available, we may experience delays or increased costs in the development of licenses for our products. For a limited number of product modules, we rely on certain software that we license from third-parties, including software that is integrated with internally developed software and which is used in our products to perform key functions. These third-party software licenses may not continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, and the related software may not continue to be appropriately supported, maintained, or enhanced by the licensors. The loss by us of the license to use, or the inability by licensors to support, maintain, and enhance any of such software, could result in increased costs or in delays or reductions in product shipments until equivalent software is developed or licensed and integrated with internally developed software. Such increased costs or delays or reductions in product shipments could adversely affect our business.

A reduction in the number or sales efforts by distributors could materially impact our revenues

A significant portion of our revenue is derived from the license of our products through third parties. Our success will depend, in part, upon our ability to maintain access to existing channels of distribution and to gain access to new channels if and when they develop. We may not be able to retain a sufficient number of our existing distributors or develop a sufficient number of future distributors. Distributors may also give higher priority to the sale of products other than ours (which could include competitors’ products) or may not devote

sufficient resources to marketing our products. The performance of third party distributors is largely outside of our control and we are unable to predict the extent to which these distributors will be successful in marketing and licensing our products. A reduction in sales efforts, a decline in the number of distributors, or our distributors’ decision to discontinue the sale of our products could materially reduce revenue.

We must continue to manage our growth or our operating results could be adversely affected

Our markets have continued to evolve at a rapid pace. Moreover, we have grown significantly through acquisitions in the past and continue to review acquisition opportunities as a means of increasing the size and scope of our business. Finally, we have been subject to increased regulation, including various NASDAQ rules and Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes”), which has necessitated a significant use of our resources to comply with the increased level of regulation on a timely basis. Our growth, coupled with the rapid evolution of our markets and heightenedmore stringent regulations, have placed, and will continue to place, significant strains on our administrative and operational resources and increased demands on our internal systems, procedures and controls. Our administrative infrastructure, systems, procedures and controls may not adequately support our operations or compliance with such regulations. In addition, our management may not be able to achieve the rapid, effective execution of the product and business initiatives necessary to successfully implement our operational and competitive strategy and to comply with all regulatory rules. If we are unable to manage growth effectively, or comply with such new regulations, our operating results will likely suffer. Our inability to manage growth or adapt to regulatory changes may also adversely affect our compliance with our periodic reporting requirements or listing standards, which could result in our delisting from the NASDAQ stock market.market or in our failure to comply with the rules or the regulations of the SEC.

Recently enacted and proposed changes in securities laws and related regulations could result in increased costs to us

Recently enacted and proposed changes in the laws and regulations affecting public companies, including the provisions of Sarbanes and recent rules proposed and enacted by the SEC and NASDAQ, have resulted inmaterially increased costs to usour expenses as we respond to the these changes. In particular, complyingcompliance with the requirements of Section 404 of Sarbanes has resulted in a higher level of internal costs and fees from our independent accounting firm and as well as from external consultants. These rules could also adversely affect our ability to obtain certain types of insurance at a reasonable cost, including director and officer liability insurance. As a result, we may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage and/or incur substantially higher premiums and related costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. The impact of these eventsincreased difficulty to obtain affordable director and officer liability insurance could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors, on committees of our Board of Directors, or as executive officers.

If we are not able to attract and retain top employees, our ability to compete may be harmed

Our performance is substantially dependent on the performance of our executive officers and key employees. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers or other key employees could significantly harm our business. We do not maintain “key person” life insurance policies on any of our employees. Our success is also highly dependent on our continuing ability to identify, hire, train, retain and motivate highly qualified management, technical, sales and marketing personnel. In particular, the recruitment of top research developers and experienced salespeople remains critical to our success. Competition for such people is intense, and we may not be able to attract, integrate or retain highly qualified technical, sales or managerial personnel in the future.

Our products rely on the stability of infrastructure software that, if not stable, could negatively impact the effectiveness of our products, resulting in harm to our reputation and business

Our developments of Internet and intranet applications depend and will depend on the stability, functionality and scalability of the infrastructure software of the underlying intranet, such as that ofthe infrastructure software

produced by Sun Microsystems, Inc., Hewlett-Packard Company, Oracle Corporation, Microsoft Corporation and others. If weaknesses in such infrastructure software exist, we may not be able to correct or compensate for such weaknesses. If we are unable to address weaknesses resulting from problems in the infrastructure software such that our products do not meet customer needs or expectations, our businessreputation, and reputationconsequently, our business may be significantly harmed.

Our quarterly revenues and operating results are likely to fluctuate which could materially impact the price of our Common Shares

We experience, and we are likely to continue to experience, significant fluctuations in quarterly revenues and operating results caused by many factors, including:

 

changes in the demand for our products;

 

the introduction or enhancement of products by us and our competitors;

 

market acceptance of enhancements or products;

 

delays in the introduction of products or enhancements by us or our competitors;

 

customer order deferrals in anticipation of upgrades and new products;

 

lengthening

changes in the lengths of sales cycles;

 

changes in our pricing policies or those of our competitors;

 

delays involved in installing productsproduct installation with customers;

 

the mix of distribution channels through which products are licensed;

 

the mix of products and services sold;

 

the timing of restructuring charges taken in connection with acquisitions completed by us;

 

the mix of international and North American revenues;

 

foreign currency exchange rates;

 

Acquisitions; and

 

general economic conditions

A cancellation or deferral of even a small number of licenses or delays in the installation of our products could have a material adverse effect on our operations in any particular quarter. Because of the impactAs a result of the timing of product introductions and the rapid evolution of our business as well as of the markets we serve, we cannot predict whether seasonal patterns experienced in the past will continue. For these reasons, relianceyou should not be placedrely upon period-to-period comparisons of our financial results to forecast future performance. It is likely that ourOur quarterly revenue and operating results may vary significantly and which could materially reduce the market price of our Common Shares.

The volatility of our stock price could lead to losses by shareholders

The market price of our Common Shares has been subject to wide fluctuations. Such fluctuations in market price may continue in response to quarterly variations in operating results, announcements of technological innovations or new products that are relevant to our industry, changes in financial estimates by securities analysts or other events or factors. In addition, financial markets experience significant price and volume fluctuations that

particularly affect the market prices of equity securities of many technology companies. These fluctuations have often resulted from the failure of such companies to meet market expectations in a particular quarter and thus may or may not be related to the underlying operating performance of such companies. Broad market fluctuations or any failure of our operating results in a particular quarter to meet market expectations may

adversely affect the market price of our Common Shares. Sometimes,Occasionally, periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, may lead to the institution of securities class action litigation against a company. Due to the volatility of our stock price, we could be the target of such securities litigation in the future. Such litigation could result in substantial costs to defend our interests and a diversion of management’s attention and resources, each of which would have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.

We may have exposure to greater than anticipated tax liabilities

We are subject to income taxes as well as other taxes in a variety of jurisdictions and our tax structure is subject to review by both domestic and foreign taxation authorities. The determination of our worldwide provision for income taxes and other tax liabilities requires significant judgment. Although we believe our estimates are reasonable, the ultimate outcome with respect to the taxes we owe may differ from the amounts recorded in our financial statements which may materially affect our financial results in the period or periods for which such determination is made.
