Pegasystems Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “the Company”) has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2012.~~2013.

In the opinion of management, the Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as its audited financial statements, and these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year ~~2013.~~2014.

~~Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred and include costs to affect an impending or completed acquisition and direct and incremental costs associated with an acquisition.~~ During the third quarter and nine months of ~~2013, acquisition-related costs~~2014, the Company adjusted the purchase price allocation of ~~$0.5 million were primarily legal and advisory fees and due diligence costs associated with the Company’s~~its acquisition of Antenna Software, Inc. ~~(“Antenna”~~(together with its subsidiaries, “Antenna”). on October 9, 2013. As required by applicable business combination accounting rules, these adjustments were applied retrospectively. These revisions did not have any impact on the Company’s previously reported results of operations or cash flows. See Note ~~12 “Subsequent Event”.~~7 “Acquisitions” and Note 8 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” for further discussion of these adjustments.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers: In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. This ASU amends the guidance for revenue recognition to replace numerous, industry-specific requirements and converges areas under this topic with those of the International Financial Reporting Standards. This ASU implements a five-step process for customer contract revenue recognition that focuses on transfer of control, as opposed to transfer of risk and rewards. This ASU also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts with customers. Other major provisions include ensuring the time value of money is considered in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. This ASU will be effective for the Company January 1, 2017. Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company considers debt securities with maturities of three months or less from the purchase date to be cash equivalents. Interest is recorded when earned. All of the Company’s investments are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of related income taxes.

As of September 30, ~~2013,~~2014, remaining maturities of marketable debt securities ranged from October ~~2013~~2014 to February ~~2016,~~2017, with a weighted-average remaining maturity of approximately 1413 months.

The Company ~~uses~~has historically used foreign currency forward contracts (“forward contracts”) to manage its exposure to changes in foreign currency denominated accounts receivable, intercompany payables and cash primarily held by the U.S. operating company. The Company ~~has been~~is primarily exposed to ~~the fluctuation~~fluctuations in the British pound, ~~and~~ Euro, ~~relative to the U.S. dollar. More recently, the Company has experienced increased levels of exposure to the~~ Australian dollar and Indian rupee ~~for which it began~~relative to ~~use forward contracts in~~ the ~~third quarter of 2013.~~U.S. dollar.

The forward contracts utilized by the Company are not designated as hedging instruments and as a result, the Company records the fair value of these contracts at the end of each reporting period in its consolidated balance sheet as other current assets for unrealized gains and accrued expenses for unrealized losses, with any fluctuations in the value of these contracts recognized in other ~~expense,~~income (expense), net, in its consolidated statement of operations. These forward contracts have terms of 90 ~~day terms~~days or less.

The Company is in the process of reassessing its hedging strategy and has not entered into any forward contracts since February 2014. As of September 30, ~~2013~~2014 and December 31, ~~2012,~~2013, the Company did not have any forward contracts outstanding.

Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for classifying the fair value measurements, a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which classifies the fair value measurements based on the inputs used in measuring fair value, was established as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; (Level 2) significant other observable inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) significant unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions. This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. On a recurring basis, the Company records its marketable securities at fair value.

The Company’s investments are all classified within Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s investments classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using quoted market prices. The Company’s investments classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued based on matrix pricing compiled by third party pricing vendors, using observable market inputs such as interest rates, yield curves, and credit risk.

The fair value hierarchy of the Company’s cash equivalents and marketable securities at fair value is as follows:

On July 1, 2014, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Profeatable Corporation (“Profeatable”), the provider of Firefly co-browsing technology, based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for $2.3 million in cash consideration, inclusive of $0.2 million in cash acquired, of which $1.1 million will be paid within one year from the acquisition date or earlier, based on the achievement of certain performance milestones.

On April 28, 2014, the Company acquired the assets of MeshLabs Software Private Limited (“MeshLabs”), a provider of advanced text analytics and social engagement solutions based in Bangalore, India, for $0.8 million in cash consideration.

On October 9, 2013, the Company acquired Antenna, a leading provider of mobile application development platforms. The Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Antenna in a cash merger for $27.1 million, including the final working capital adjustment to the purchase price, which was paid by the Company in the first quarter of 2014. The total purchase price of $27.1 million included $4.2 million, which was deposited in escrow to secure the selling stockholders’ indemnification obligations to the Company. Under the merger agreement, this amount may be due to the former shareholders of Antenna in or before April 2015 less any amounts presented and approved for payment against the escrow. During the nine months of 2014, the Company incurred and recorded direct and incremental expenses associated with the transaction of $0.3 million, which were primarily professional fees.

The operations of Antenna are included in the Company’s operating results from the date of acquisition. Due to the integration of the products, sales force, and operations of Antenna, other than the maintenance and hosting revenue attributable to the recognition of the fair value of acquired deferred maintenance and hosting revenue, it is no longer feasible for the Company to identify revenue from new arrangements solely attributable to Antenna.

In the nine months of 2014, the Company made $6 million in purchase price adjustments to goodwill. These purchase price adjustments are also reflected retrospectively as of December 31, 2013 in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

As of September 30, ~~2013~~2014, as a result of the purchase price allocation, the Company recognized $23.0 million of goodwill, which is primarily due to the expected synergies of the combined entities and ~~December 31,~~the workforce in place. The goodwill created by the transaction is nondeductible for tax purposes. The Company recorded $37.2 million of deferred tax assets, a $27.7 million valuation allowance related to the Company’s determination it will not be able to utilize all of the acquired Antenna federal and foreign net operating losses due to various limitations and restrictions, and a $6.9 million deferred tax liability associated with the acquired intangibles, for a net deferred tax asset of $2.6 million. A summary of the final purchase price allocation for the acquisition of Antenna is as follows:

The valuation of the assumed deferred revenue was based on the Company’s contractual commitment to provide post-contract customer support to Antenna clients and future contractual performance obligations under existing hosting arrangements. The fair value of this assumed liability was based on the estimated cost plus a reasonable margin to fulfill these service obligations. The majority of the deferred revenue was recognized in the 12 months following the acquisition.

The valuation of the acquired intangible assets is inherently subjective and relies on significant unobservable inputs. The Company used an income approach to value the acquired customer related, technology and trade name intangible assets. The non-compete assets were valued using the with-and-without method, a form of the income approach which considers the cash flow differentials under multiple scenarios with or without key executives. The valuation for each of these intangible assets was based on estimated projections of expected cash flows to be generated by the assets, discounted to the present value at discount rates commensurate with perceived risk. The valuation assumptions take into consideration the Company’s estimates of contract renewal, technology attrition and revenue growth projections.

The estimated fair values for specifically identifiable intangible assets acquired, by major asset class, are as follows:

The following pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations of the Company and Antenna as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2012 ~~respectively.~~after giving effect to certain pro forma adjustments. The pro forma adjustments reflected herein include only those adjustments that are directly attributable to the Antenna acquisition, factually supportable, and expected to have a continuing impact on the Company. These pro forma adjustments include a net increase in amortization expense to eliminate historical amortization of Antenna intangible assets and to record amortization expense for the $10.4 million of acquired identifiable intangibles, a decrease in interest income as a result of the cash paid for the acquisition, and a decrease in interest expense as a result of the repayment of all Antenna outstanding debt in connection with the acquisition. The pro forma financial information does not reflect any adjustments for anticipated synergies resulting from the acquisition and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have actually occurred had the transaction been consummated on January 1, 2012.

(1) The purchase price adjustments identified during the ~~first~~ nine months of 2014 have been retroactively applied as of December 31, 2013.

Intangible assets are recorded at cost and are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives.

During the fourth quarter of 2013, in connection with the Company’s evaluation of its combined facilities with Antenna, the Company approved a plan to eliminate space within one facility. The Company ceased use of this space during the fourth quarter of 2013 and recognized $1.7 million of restructuring expenses. During the third quarter of 2014, the Company restructured the remaining space within the same facility, revised its restructuring estimate, and recognized $0.2 million in additional restructuring expense. These restructuring expenses represent future lease payments and demising costs, net of estimated sublease income for this space. The lease expires in 2021.

On April 1, 2014, the Company effected a two-for-one stock split of the Company’s common stock in the form of a stock dividend. All shares of common stock and per share amounts in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and in the accompanying notes for all prior periods presented have been restated to reflect the stock split, except for the number of authorized shares of common stock.

During the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013,~~2014, the Company issued approximately ~~344,000~~635,000 shares to its employees and ~~14,000~~29,000 shares to its non-employee directors under the Company’s share-based compensation plans.

During the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013,~~2014, the Company granted approximately ~~114,000~~1,193,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and 1,299,000 non-qualified stock options to its employees with a total fair ~~value~~values of approximately ~~$3.3 million.~~$23.7 million and $9.9 million, respectively. Approximately ~~59,000~~100,000 RSUs were issued in connection with the election by employees to receive 50% of their ~~2013~~2014 target incentive compensation under the Company’s Corporate Incentive Compensation Plan (the “CICP”) in the form of RSUs instead of cash. Stock-based compensation of approximately ~~$1.7~~$2 million associated with this RSU grant will be recognized over a one-year period beginning on the grant date.

The Company recognizes stock based compensation on the accelerated recognition method, while treating each vesting tranche as if it were an individual grant. As of September 30, ~~2013,~~2014, the Company had approximately ~~$12.2~~$24.2 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to all unvested RSUs and unvested stock options that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years.

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period, plus the dilutive effect of outstanding options, RSUs, and warrants, using the treasury stock method and the average market price of the Company’s common stock during the applicable period. Certain shares related to some of the Company’s outstanding stock options and RSUs were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were antidilutive in the periods presented, but could be dilutive in the future.

Our solution frameworks products include customer relationship management (“CRM”) software, which enables unified predictive decisioning and analytics and optimizes the overall customer experience. Our decision management products and capabilities are designed to manage processes so that all actions optimize the outcome based on business objectives.other verticals. We continue to invest heavily in research and development to continue improving our software, and most recently have added mobile and “co-browsing” capabilities as more fully described below. We sell our software directly, and also through a network of business and technology alliances. Our partners include major systems integrators, management consulting firms, technology providers, and application developers.

Our acquisition of Profeatable Corporation (“Profeatable”) on July 1, 2014, allows us to integrate Profeatable’s Firefly Cloud-based collaboration technology into the ~~development of new products~~Pega 7 platform as well as our customer service and ~~intend~~sales applications. The Firefly technology enables users to ~~remain a leader in BPM, CRM, and decision management.~~

~~We also offer Pega Cloud, a service offering that allows~~share content by simultaneously “co-browsing” Web pages. The Profeatable technology is designed to allow our clients to ~~immediately~~engage customers in real time and on line, and can also be used to enable employees to collaborate on work, regardless of location.

Our acquisition of MeshLabs Software Private Limited (“MeshLabs”) on April 28, 2014, unified MeshLabs’ social listening, text analytics, and natural language processing with the existing capabilities of our customer service, marketing, and case management applications. The combined solutions are designed to enable our clients to collect social content (tweets, blogs, and posts on Facebook or in other social communities), and enrich it by detecting language, topic, taxonomy, and sentiment. Using this combination, our clients are able to monitor, triage, and respond to social content across multiple channels, and turn it into actionable social intelligence.

Our acquisition of Antenna Software, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Antenna”) on October 9, 2013 expanded our Application Mobility Platform that is designed to help clients efficiently build, ~~test,~~manage, and deploy mobile applications as part of a unified Omni channel experience. By using our Mobility Platform, enterprises can manage the complex elements of the mobile application lifecycle including security, integration, testing, and management of mobile applications and devices. Our mobile application development solutions help businesses to reduce their ~~Pega applications in a secure cloud environment while minimizing their infrastructure~~development time, deployment costs, and ~~hardware costs. Revenue from our Pega Cloud offering is~~the complexity associated with run-the-business mobile applications. The operations of Antenna are included in ~~consulting services revenue.~~our operating results from the date of acquisition. Due to the integration of the products, sales force, and operations of Antenna, other than the maintenance and hosting revenue attributable to the recognition of the fair value of acquired deferred maintenance and hosting revenue, it is no longer feasible for us to identify revenue from new arrangements solely attributable to Antenna.

We offer training for our ~~staff,~~ clients and partners at our regional training facilities, at third party facilities, and at client sites. ~~We also offer~~Our online training ~~online~~ through ~~Pega Academy, which~~PegaACADEMY provides an alternative way to learn our software in a virtual ~~environment quickly and easily.~~environment. We believe that this online training will continue to expand the number of trained experts at a faster pace.

On October 9, 2013, we acquired Antenna Software, Inc. (“Antenna”), a leading provider of mobile application development platforms for $26.3 million in cash. We believe the acquisition will offer our collective clients faster time-to-market and increased flexibility in end-to-end mobile application development, powerful device management and cloud-based mobile Backend-as-a-Service.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon ~~the~~our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions, and beliefs of what could occur in the future given available information.

The aggregate value of new license arrangements executed during the ~~third quarter~~nine months of ~~2013 nearly doubled as~~2014 significantly increased compared to the ~~third quarter~~nine months of ~~2012~~2013 due to a higher ~~average~~number and higher total value of license arrangements executed in ~~the third quarter of 2013. The aggregate value of new license arrangements executed during the first nine months of 2013 was higher than in~~this period compared to the same period in ~~2012 due to both a larger number and higher average~~2013. The increase in the aggregate value of license arrangements executed was primarily due to one perpetual license arrangement executed in the ~~first nine months~~second quarter of ~~2013.~~2014 for more than $10 million. The aggregate value of new license arrangements executed fluctuates quarter to quarter. During the ~~first~~ nine months of 2014 and 2013, approximately 86% and ~~2012, approximately~~ 72% ~~and 68%~~, respectively, of the value of new license arrangements were executed with existing clients.

The mix between perpetual and term license arrangements executed in a particular period varies based on client needs. A change in the mix between perpetual and term license arrangements executed may cause our revenues to vary materially from period to period. A higher proportion of term license arrangements executed would result in more license revenue being recognized over longer periods as payments become due or earlier if prepaid. ~~However, some~~Some of our perpetual license arrangements include extended payment terms or additional rights of use, which also result in the recognition of revenue over longer periods.

The ~~increase~~decrease in perpetual license revenue during the third quarter of 2014 compared to the third quarter of 2013 was primarily due to the lower value of perpetual arrangements executed and recognized into revenue during the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in ~~2012 was primarily due to larger value perpetual arrangements executed during the third quarter of 2013 than in the third quarter of 2012.~~2013. The increase in perpetual license revenue during the ~~first~~nine months of 2014 compared to the nine months of 2013 ~~compared to the same period in 2012~~ was primarily due to ~~higher value perpetual~~license arrangements executed ~~during~~in the first ~~nine months~~half of ~~2013 and~~2014. The aggregate value of payments due under noncancellable perpetual licenses was $15.3 million as of September 30, 2014 compared to $30.5 million as of September 30, 2013. We expect to recognize $7.1 million of the $15.3 million as revenue in the fourth quarter of ~~2012 than during the first nine months of 2012 and the fourth quarter of 2011.~~2014.

The increases in term license revenue were primarily due to ~~revenue recognized on~~ term license arrangements executed in ~~2012~~the fourth quarter of 2013 and ~~2011.~~first half of 2014 and a $1.5 million prepayment of a client arrangement in the first quarter of 2014. The aggregate value of payments due under noncancellable term licenses and our Pega Cloud arrangements grew to ~~$203.6~~$250 million as of September 30, ~~2013~~2014 compared to ~~$155.9~~$217.9 million as of September 30, ~~2012.~~2013. We expect to recognize ~~$16~~$21.3 million of the ~~$203.6~~$250 million as revenue ~~during~~in the ~~remainder~~fourth quarter of ~~2013~~2014 in addition to new term license and Pega Cloud agreements we may complete in the fourth quarter of 2014 or prepayments we may receive from existing term license agreements. See the table of future cash receipts ~~on page 22.~~in Liquidity and Capital Resources - Cash Provided by Operating Activities.

Subscription revenue primarily consists of the ratable recognition of license, maintenance and bundled services revenue on ~~perpetual~~ license arrangements that include a right to successor products or unspecified future products. Subscription revenue does not include revenue from our Pega Cloud ~~offerings,~~arrangements, which is included in ~~consulting~~ services. The timing of scheduled payments under client arrangements may limit the amount of revenue recognized in a reporting period. Consequently, our subscription revenue may vary quarter to quarter. The ~~decrease~~increase in subscription revenue ~~during~~for the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013~~2014 compared to the same period in ~~2012~~2013 was primarily due to ~~revenue recognized in~~ the ~~second quarter~~timing of ~~2012~~payments for a ~~large payment that became due.~~client arrangement.

Consulting services ~~includes~~primarily relate to new license implementations. The increase in consulting services revenue during the nine months of 2014 was a result of revenue from Antenna and unusually low services revenue in the first quarter of 2013 mainly because many of our large fourth quarter 2012 license arrangements were for the purchase of additional usage, which did not require implementation services. Our consulting services may be lower in future periods as our clients become enabled and our partners lead more projects.

The increases in amortization expense were primarily due to the amortization associated with $10.4 million of intangibles acquired from Antenna in October 2013.

Selling and marketing expenses include compensation, benefits, and other headcount-related expenses associated with our selling and marketing personnel as well as advertising, promotions, trade shows, seminars, and other programs. Selling and marketing expenses also include the amortization of customer related intangibles.

The increase in selling and marketing expenses during the third quarter of ~~2013~~2014 compared to the same period in ~~2012~~2013 was primarily due to a ~~$2.2~~$5.1 million increase in compensation and benefits associated with higher headcount, partially due to Antenna, and a $1.5 million increase in marketing and sales program expenses, partially offset by a ~~$1.4~~$2.6 million decrease in partner commissions.

The increase in selling and marketing expenses during the nine months of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily due to a $12.8 million increase in compensation and benefit expenses associated with higher headcount, partially due to Antenna, a $3.5 million increase in marketing and sales program expenses primarily related to PegaWORLD, our annual user conference, a $2.7 million increase in commission expense associated with the higher value of new license arrangements executed ~~and~~during the nine months of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, a ~~$2.7~~$0.9 million increase in contracted services, and a $0.8 million increase in amortization expense due to the Antenna customer related intangible assets, partially offset by a $2.8 million decrease in partner ~~commission expense.~~commissions.

Effective January 1, 2014, we realigned the organizational structure of our product management and design team. As a result of this realignment, we changed the classification of this team’s expenses from selling and marketing to research and development as the roles of the members of this team are now aligned with our research and development efforts. The decrease caused by this realignment partially offset the increase in headcount as well as the overall increase in selling and marketing expenses during the ~~first~~third quarter and nine months of ~~2013~~2014 compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2012 was primarily due to a $5.5 million increase in compensation expenses, a $2.2 million increase in commission expense associated with the higher value of new license arrangements executed and a $2.8 million increase in partner commission expense.2013.

Research and development expenses include compensation, benefits, contracted services, and other headcount-related expenses associated with the creation and development of our products as well as enhancements and engineering changes to existing products.

The realignment of the organizational structure of our product management and design team as discussed above contributed to the increase in headcount as well as the overall increase in research and ~~development.~~development expense during the third quarter and nine months of 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013.

The increase in headcount also reflects the impact of Antenna and the growth in our India research facility as we have been replacing contractors with employees. The increase in offshore headcount lowered our average compensation expense per employee.

The increase in research and development expenses during the third quarter of ~~2013~~2014 compared to the same period in ~~2012~~2013 was primarily due to a ~~$1.3 million increase in compensation expenses associated with higher headcount, partially offset by a $0.8 million decrease in rent and equipment-related expenses.~~

~~The increase in research and development expenses during the first nine months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily due to a $5.5~~$6.2 million increase in compensation and benefit expenses associated with higher headcount ~~partially offset by a $2.3 million decrease in contractor~~inclusive of the compensation and benefit expenses associated with our ~~hiring~~product management and design group now included in research and development, a $0.8 million increase in contracted professional services, and a $0.7 million increase in equipment-related costs.

General and administrative expenses include compensation, benefits, and other headcount-related expenses associated with finance, legal, corporate governance, and other administrative headcount. It also includes accounting, legal, and other administrative fees. The general and administrative headcount includes employees in human resources, information technology and corporate services departments whose costs are allocated to our other functional departments.

The increase in general and administrative expenses during the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily due to a $1 million increase in compensation and benefits associated with higher headcount and a $0.6 million increase in amortization associated with the Antenna trademark intangible asset and the non-compete intangible assets related to the Antenna, MeshLabs, and Profeatable acquisitions.

The increase in general and administrative expenses during the nine months of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily due to a $2.7 million increase in compensation and benefits associated with higher headcount, a $1.7 million increase in professional fees, and a $1.5 million increase in amortization associated with the Antenna trademark intangible asset and the non-compete intangible assets related to the Antenna, MeshLabs, and Profeatable acquisitions.

The restructuring expenses represent future lease payments and demising costs, net of estimated sublease income for space acquired in connection with the Antenna acquisition. During the fourth quarter of 2013, we ceased use of some of this space as part of our integration of Antenna. During the third quarter of 2014, we restructured the remaining space and revised our estimate of sublease income for the previously restructured space, recognizing $0.2 million in expenses. See Note 11 “Accrued Restructuring” for further discussion.

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense included in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations:

We ~~use~~have historically used foreign currency forward contracts (“forward contracts”) to manage our exposure to changes in foreign currency denominated accounts receivable, intercompany payables, and cash primarily held by our U.S. operating company. We have not designated these forward contracts as hedging instruments and as a result, we record the fair value of the outstanding contracts at the end of the reporting period in our consolidated balance sheet, with any fluctuations in the value of these contracts recognized in other ~~expense,~~income (expense), net. The fluctuations in the value of these forward contracts recorded in other ~~expense,~~income (expense), net, partially offset in net income, the gains and losses from the remeasurement or settlement of the foreign currency denominated accounts receivable, intercompany payables, and cash held by the U.S. operating company recorded in foreign currency transaction ~~loss.~~(loss) gain.

We are in the process of reassessing our hedging strategy and have ~~been~~not entered into any forward contracts since February 2014.

We are primarily exposed to the fluctuation in the British pound, Euro, Australian dollar and ~~Euro~~Indian rupee relative to the U.S. dollar. ~~More recently, we have experienced increased levels of exposure to the Australian dollar and Indian rupee.~~ See Note 34 “Derivative Instruments” in the notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for discussion onof our use of forward contracts.

The total change in the fair value of our forward contracts recorded in other ~~expense,~~income (expense), net, during the ~~third quarter and first~~ nine months of 2014 and 2013 was a loss of ~~$1.2~~$0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The total change in the fair value of our foreign currency forward contracts recorded in other expense, net, during the third quarter and first nine months of 2012 was a loss of $0.9 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

We account for income taxes at each interim period using our estimated annual effective tax rate and adjust for discrete tax items recorded in the same period. The provision for income taxes represents current and future amounts owed for federal, state, and foreign taxes. During the third quarter of ~~2013~~2014 and ~~2012,~~2013, we recorded a tax provision of ~~$4.7~~$0.5 million and ~~$0.4 million, respectively. During the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, we recorded a tax provision of $9.6 million and $1.3 million, on pre-tax income of $32.1 million and $2.8~~$4.7 million, respectively, which resulted in an effective tax rate of ~~29.9%~~20% and ~~47.8%~~35%, respectively. During the nine months of 2014 and 2013, we recorded a provision of $6.1 million and $9.6 million, respectively, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 32% and 30%, respectively. Our effective tax rates for the third quarter and nine months of 2014 were below the statutory rate primarily due to our domestic production activities deduction and a favorable foreign tax rate differential. In addition, our effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2014 was impacted by favorable discrete items due to the lapse of certain foreign income tax statutes and transfer pricing rulings. Our effective tax rate for the ~~first~~ nine months of 2013 was below the statutory rate primarily due to ~~the domestic production activities deduction, our foreign tax rate differential benefit, and~~ a $0.8 million tax benefit related to our 2012 research and experimentation credit recognized in the first quarter of 2013 as a result of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 that was signed into law in January 2013. Our effective tax rate for ~~the first~~ nine months of ~~2012~~2014 was ~~a result of low pre-tax income~~higher than in the same period in 2013 primarily because the research and ~~certain discrete items that were recorded in 2012.~~experimentation credit has not yet been extended to 2014.

Total cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities	$	188,445	$	122,985	$	228,571	$	156,692

The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to the significant increase in cash provided by operating activities associated with our strong accounts receivable collections during the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013,~~2014, which were generated from ~~our~~the significant value of arrangements executed in the fourth quarter of ~~2012.~~2013 and nine months of 2014. We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund our operations, our dividend payments and our share repurchase program for at least the next 12 months.

We evaluate acquisition opportunities from time to time, which if pursued, could require use of our funds. On October 9, 2013, we acquired Antenna for $26.3 million in cash. During the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2013,~~2014, we paid $0.8 million of the remaining merger consideration related to the final working capital adjustment for Antenna, and we incurred $0.3 million of direct and incremental expenses associated with this transaction during the ~~transaction~~nine months of ~~$0.5~~2014. During the second quarter of 2014, we paid $0.8 million in cash consideration to acquire MeshLabs. On July 1, 2014, we acquired Profeatable for $2.3 million in cash consideration, inclusive of $0.2 million in cash acquired, of which $1.2 million was paid upon closing and ~~expect to incur an additional estimated $2.2~~$1.1 million will be paid within one year from the acquisition or earlier, based on the achievement of ~~such expenses that are primarily professional fees to affect the acquisition.~~certain performance milestones.

As of September 30, ~~2013,~~2014, approximately ~~$54.8~~$58.7 million of our cash and cash equivalents was held in our foreign subsidiaries. If it becomes necessary to repatriate these funds, we may be required to pay U.S. tax, net of any applicable foreign tax credits, upon repatriation. We consider the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to be permanently reinvested and, as a result, U.S. taxes on such earnings are not provided. It is impractical to estimate the amount of U.S. tax we could have to pay upon repatriation due to the complexity of the foreign tax credit calculations and because we consider our earnings permanently reinvested. There can be no assurance that changes in our plans or other events affecting our operations will not result in materially accelerated or unexpected expenditures.

The primary drivers of cash provided by operating activities during the ~~first~~nine months of 2014 were net income of $13.2 million and the $56.4 million net change in assets and liabilities. The net change in assets and liabilities primarily consisted of a decrease in accounts receivable due to our strong collections, partially offset by an increase in income taxes receivable due to estimated tax payments and the tax benefits associated with domestic stock-based compensation.

The primary drivers of cash provided by operating activities during the nine months of 2013 were net income of $22.5 million and the $35.9 million net change in assets and liabilities. The net change in assets and liabilities primarily consisted of a ~~$42.6 million~~ decrease in accounts receivable due to ~~our significant collections.~~

~~The primary drivers of cash provided~~higher collections, partially offset by ~~operating activities during the first nine months of 2012 were net income of $1.5 million, an $18.9 million~~a decrease in ~~account receivable~~accounts payable and accrued expenses due to ~~higher collections, and a $2.7 million increase in deferred revenue.~~the timing of payments for compensation-related accruals.

Total contractual future cash receipts due from our existing license and Pega Cloud agreements was approximately ~~$234.2~~$265.3 million as of September 30, ~~2013~~2014 compared to ~~$195.2~~$248.4 million as of September 30, ~~2012.~~2013. The future cash receipts due ~~as of September 30, 2013~~ are summarized as follows:

During the ~~first~~nine months of 2014, cash used in investing activities was primarily for purchases of marketable debt securities of $36.2 million, partially offset by the proceeds received from the maturities of marketable debt securities of $22.2 million.

During the nine months of 2013, cash used in investing activities was primarily for purchases of marketable debt securities of $56.6 million, partially offset by the proceeds received from the maturities of marketable debt securities of $21.1 million.

~~During~~Payments for acquisitions during the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2012, we invested $21.9~~2014 totaled $2.6 million, ~~primarily~~comprised of the payment of the final working capital adjustment to the Antenna shareholders in ~~leasehold improvements, furniture~~the first quarter of 2014 and ~~fixtures~~cash consideration to acquire MeshLabs and ~~equipment for~~Profeatable, paid in the ~~build-out~~second and third quarters of ~~our U.S. and India offices.~~2014, respectively.

Cash used in financing activities during the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013~~2014 and ~~2012~~2013 was primarily for repurchases of our common ~~stock and dividend payments.~~stock. Since 2004, our Board of Directors has approved annual stock repurchase programs that have authorized the repurchase in the aggregate of up to ~~$92.4~~$104.5 million of our common stock. Purchases under these programs have been made on the open market.

On March 6, 2014, our Board of Directors approved a two-for-one stock split of our common stock in the form of a stock dividend. On April 1, 2014, each stockholder of record at the close of business on March 20, 2014 (the “Record Date”) received as a dividend one additional share of common stock, par value $.01, for each share of common stock held on the Record Date. The number of shares and per share amounts for all prior periods presented have been retroactively restated to reflect our two-for-one common stock split, except for the number of authorized shares of common stock. The following table is a summary of our repurchase activity under all of our repurchase programs during the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013~~2014 and ~~2012:~~2013:

In addition to the share repurchases made under our repurchase programs, we net settled the majority of our employee stock option exercises and RSU vesting, which resulted in the withholding of shares to cover the option exercise price and the minimum statutory tax withholding obligations.

During the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013~~2014 and ~~2012,~~2013, option and RSU holders net settled stock options and vested RSUs representing the right to purchase a total of ~~529,000~~948,000 shares and ~~424,000~~1,058,000 shares, respectively, of which only ~~275,000~~529,000 shares and ~~243,000~~551,000 shares, respectively, were issued to the option and RSU holders and the balance of the shares were surrendered to us to pay for the exercise price and the applicable taxes. During the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013~~2014 and ~~2012,~~2013, instead of receiving cash from the equity holders, we withheld shares with a value of ~~$4.1~~$4.9 million and ~~$3.6~~$4.1 million, respectively, for withholding taxes, and ~~$3.9~~$4.9 million and ~~$2.4~~$3.9 million, respectively, for the exercise price. The value of share repurchases and shares withheld for net settlement of our employee stock option exercises and vesting of RSUs offset the proceeds received under our various share-based compensation plans during the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013~~2014 and ~~2012.~~2013.

We declared a cash dividend of ~~$0.09~~$0.075 and $0.045 per share on a post-split basis in the ~~first~~ nine months of 2014 and 2013, ~~and 2012.~~respectively. We paid cash dividends of ~~$2.3~~$4.6 million and ~~$3.4~~$2.3 million in the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013~~2014 and ~~2012,~~2013, respectively. Our Board of Directors authorized the acceleration of the payment of the fourth quarter 2012 dividend to be paid in December 2012 rather than in January 2013. Therefore, there was no dividend payment in the first quarter of 2013. It is our current intention to pay a quarterly cash dividend of $0.03 per ~~share,~~share; however, the Board of Directors may terminate or modify this dividend program at any time without notice.

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may affect us due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily related to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

We ~~enter~~have historically entered into foreign currency forward contracts to partially mitigate our exposure to the fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The fluctuations in the value of these forward contracts partially offset the gains and losses from the remeasurement or settlement of the foreign currency denominated accounts receivable, intercompany payables, and cash held by the U.S. operating company recorded in foreign currency transaction (loss) gain, thus partially mitigating the volatility.

We are in the process of reassessing our hedging strategy, and we have not entered into any forward contracts since February 2014.

See Note 34 “Derivative Instruments” ~~in the notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements~~ for further discussion.

There were no significant changes to our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk during the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013.~~2014. Please refer to Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2012~~2013 for a more complete discussion of our market risk exposure.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) as of September 30, ~~2013.~~2014. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our management necessarily applied its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, ~~2013.~~2014.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, ~~2013~~2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We encourage you to carefully consider the risk factors identified in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2012.~~2013. These risk factors could materially affect our business, financial condition and future results and could cause our actual business and financial results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or elsewhere by management from time to time. ~~Except as described below, there~~There have been no material changes during the ~~first~~ nine months of ~~2013~~2014 to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2012.~~2013.

~~The acquisition of other businesses and technologies may present new risks.~~ We have recently undertaken an acquisition and may continue to evaluate and consider other potential strategic transactions, including acquisitions of businesses, technologies, services, products and other assets in the future. These acquisitions, if undertaken, may involve significant new risks and uncertainties, including distraction of management attention away from our current business operations, insufficient new revenue to offset expenses, inadequate return on capital, integration challenges, new regulatory requirements, new third-party intellectual property infringement claims related to the acquired technology and/or services, and issues not discovered in our due diligence process. No assurance can be given that such acquisitions will be successful and will not adversely affect our profitability or operations.

The following table sets forth information regarding our repurchases of our common stock during the third quarter of ~~2013:~~2014:

The exhibits listed in the Exhibit Index immediately preceding such exhibits are filed or furnished, as the case may be, as part of this report and such Exhibit Index is incorporated herein by reference.
