EXE Technologies, Inc. (the Company or EXE) is a leading provider of fulfillment, warehousing and distribution software for e-commerce and traditional sales channels. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EXE Technologies, Inc. and our majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for fiscal year end financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring entries) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results have been included for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2001. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000.
The following summary, prepared on an unaudited pro forma basis, reflects the condensed consolidated results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 2001 assuming AllPoints had been acquired at the beginning of the periods presented:
The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what would have occurred if the acquisition had been in effect for the periods presented. In addition they are not intended to be a projection of future results and do not reflect any synergies that might be affected from combined operations.
The Company recorded deferred compensation expense for differences between the exercise price and the deemed fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date for certain options granted. Deferred compensation of approximately $4.6 million was incurred during 2000 and $2.6 million was incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2001. The deferred compensation is amortized ratably over the vesting period of the individual options, generally three to four years. Compensation expense relating to stock options recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 2001 was approximately $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Compensation expense relating to stock options recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 2001 was approximately $1.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period and common equivalent shares consisting of preferred stock, warrants and stock options (using the treasury stock method), if dilutive. Diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share for all periods presented because all potentially dilutive securities were anti-dilutive. The following table sets forth anti-dilutive securities which have been excluded from diluted earnings per share for the periods presented:
Comprehensive loss includes foreign currency translation gains (losses) and unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale. The following table sets forth the calculation of comprehensive loss for the periods presented:
The Company will apply the new rules on accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets beginning in the first quarter of 2002. Application of the nonamortization provisions of the Statement is expected to result in an increase in net income of approximately $9.0 million or $0.20 per share in 2002 as a result of nonamortization of existing goodwill. The Company will perform the first of the required impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets as of January 1, 2002. The effect of these tests on the earnings and financial position of the Company have yet to be determined but may result in a significant charge to earnings in a future period.

9. Employee Severance and Lease Abandonment
During the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company implemented and announced plans to reduce costs and improve operating efficiency. During the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $430,000 for costs associated with severance and other employee related costs for the termination of 18 services, sales and marketing, development and administrative employees.

These actions resulted in a charge of $9,500,000 that included approximately $1,956,000 for severance and other employee related costs for the termination of 119 services, sales and marketing, development and administrative employees, $7,440,000 for the abandonment of certain leased office space, less estimated sublease recoveries, at the Company's North American and United Kingdom facilities, and $104,000 for other costs associated with the downsizing of operations at the Company's Hong Kong office.
The Company has recorded approximately $557,000 of cash charges against the reserves established for these 2001 cost reduction actions. The remaining liability at June 30, 2001 is approximately $9,373,000 and is expected to be paid through 2007.
ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Overview
EXE Technologies, Inc. is a leading provider of fulfillment, warehousing and distribution software for e-commerce and traditional sales channels. Our software allows companies to efficiently manage and control the flow of inventory throughout the supply chain using the Internet and traditional communication methods. Companies use our software to reduce distribution costs, manage inventory across the supply chain, and increase customer loyalty and satisfaction. We provide global service and support for our software from established facilities in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Australia.
We derive our revenue from the sale of software licenses; product related consulting, training, maintenance and support (collectively, “services and maintenance”); and the resale of software and equipment.
We recognize license revenue under Statement of Position, or SOP, No. 97-2. Under SOP No. 97-2, software license revenue is recognized upon execution of a contract and delivery of the software, provided that the license fee is fixed and determinable, no significant production, modification or customization of the software is required, vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists to allow the allocation of the total fee to elements of the arrangement and collection of the license fee is considered probable by management. Product related maintenance and support revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the contract, which is typically one year, and revenue from product related consulting and training is recognized as such services are performed.
On January 25, 2001 we completed the acquisition of AllPoints Systems, Inc. (AllPoints) of Norwood, Massachusetts. The transaction was completed in a stock-for-stock merger in which we issued 1,590,357 shares of our common stock and assumed options for an additional 409,606 shares of our common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding securities of AllPoints. The acquisition was intended to strengthen our global leadership by deepening our vertical market presence and expanding our software and service offerings. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase.
During the six months ended June 30, 2001, we implemented and announced plans to reduce costs and improve operating efficiency. During the three months ended March 31, 2001, we recorded a charge of $0.4 million for costs associated with severance and other employee related costs for the termination of 18 services, sales and marketing, development and administrative employees. Additionally, during the three months ended June 30, 2001, we recorded a charge of $9.5 million that included approximately $2.0 million for severance and other employee related costs for the termination of 119 services, sales and marketing, development and administrative employees, $7.4 million for the abandonment of certain leased office space, less estimated sublease recoveries, at our North American and United Kingdom facilities, and $0.1 million for other costs associated with the downsizing of operations at our Hong Kong office.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2000
Revenue
Total Revenue. Total revenue decreased by $2.8 million, or 9.8%, to $25.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $28.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. International revenue accounted for 45.9% of total revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 39.2% of total revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2000. No single customer accounted for more than 10.0% of total revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2001 or 2000.
Software License. Software license revenue decreased $2.6 million, or 29.3%, to $6.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $8.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. Software license revenue as a percentage of total revenue was 24.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 versus 31.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2000. These decreases were the result of a global slowdown in customer spending for large-scale IT projects. Sales of our EXceed Fulfill and predecessor products decreased by $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2000, while sales of our EXceed 2000 warehouse management system product decreased $1.1 million. Our EXceed Fulfill and predecessor products accounted for 96.9% of total software license revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 85.7% of total software license revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2000.
Services and Maintenance. Services and maintenance revenue decreased $0.8 million, or 5.0%, to $16.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $17.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. Services and maintenance revenue from our EXceed 2000 warehouse management system and mainframe products decreased $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, while product-related training revenue also decreased $0.4 million. Services and maintenance revenue as a percentage of total revenue was 66.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 versus 62.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in services and maintenance revenue as a percentage of total revenue was due to the decline in software license revenue attributed to the global slowdown in customer spending for large-scale IT projects. Our EXceed Fulfill and predecessor products accounted for 57.8% of total services and maintenance revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2001 versus 55.4% of total services and maintenance revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2000.
Resale Software and Equipment. Resale software and equipment revenue increased $0.7 million, or 38.3%, to $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase was due to a large equipment sale to one of our customers. Resale software and equipment as a percentage of total revenue was 9.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 versus 6.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2000.
Costs and Expenses
Cost of Software Licenses. Cost of software licenses consists primarily of royalties associated with software used to develop our software products, the cost of reproduction, and the cost of complementary software applications that we purchase to sell to our customers. Cost of software licenses represented 1.4% of software license revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 1.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2000.
Cost of Services and Maintenance. Cost of services and maintenance consists primarily of salaries of professional staff and costs associated with implementation, consulting and training services, hotline telephone support, new releases of software and updating user documentation. Cost of services and maintenance decreased $3.3 million, or 23.1%, to $11.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $14.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The decrease was related primarily to a reduction in the number of full time and contract services and maintenance employees. As a percentage of services and maintenance revenue, cost of services and maintenance decreased to 65.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from 81.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The decrease in cost as a percentage of services and maintenance revenue was due to an increase in productivity (i.e., higher revenue generated per employee).
Cost of Resale Software and Equipment. Cost of resale software and equipment consists primarily of the costs of the database software tools and hardware we purchase to resell to our customers. Cost of resale software and equipment increased $0.6 million, or 37.8%, to $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase was due to higher resale software and equipment sales for the three months ended June 30, 2001.

As a percentage of total revenue, sales and marketing expenses increased to 31.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from 23.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in sales and marketing costs as a percentage of total revenue was a result of lower than anticipated revenue growth for the three months ended June 30, 2001 due to the current economic environment.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related costs for our product development activities. Research and development expenses increased $1.7 million, or 75.2%, to $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in research and development expenses was due primarily to an increase in the number of employees obtained through the AllPoints acquisition and hired externally to enhance our EXceed Collaborate Suite. As a percentage of total revenue, research and development expenses increased to 15.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from 8.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2000.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related costs of our finance, human resources, information systems, administrative, legal and executive departments, insurance costs and the costs associated with legal, accounting, and other administrative services. General and administrative costs increased $2.2 million, or 64.4%, to $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due to higher personnel-related expenses associated with the acquisition of AllPoints, opening and staffing new offices in Benelux, France, and Germany, and upgrading our operations, human resources, information systems, and investor relations headquarters functions. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expenses increased to 22.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from 12.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2000. This increase was primarily due to lower than anticipated revenue growth for the three months ended June 30, 2001, due to the current economic environment.
Amortization of Intangibles. Amortization of intangibles relates primarily to intangibles acquired in connection with the 1997 acquisition of Dallas Systems and the 2001 acquisition of AllPoints. Amortization of intangibles increased $1.2 million to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in amortization was due to intangibles acquired in connection with the acquisition of AllPoints.
Non-Cash Warrant and Stock Compensation. Non-cash warrant and stock compensation expense relates to the amortization of deferred compensation recorded primarily in connection with stock options granted to employees. The deferred compensation recorded represented the difference between the exercise price and the deemed fair value of our common stock on the date of grant of these options. Non-cash warrant and stock compensation expense decreased $0.5 million to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000.
Employee Severance and Lease Abandonment Costs. In response to the continued global slowdown in customer spending for large-scale IT projects, we implemented a cost reduction plan during the three months ended June 30, 2001. In connection with this plan, we recorded a charge of $9.5 million that included approximately $2.0 million for severance and other employee related costs for the termination of 119 services, sales and marketing, development and administrative employees, $7.4 million for the abandonment of certain leased office space, less estimated sublease recoveries, at our North American and United Kingdom facilities, and $0.1 million for other costs associated with the downsizing of operations at our Hong Kong office.

Other income (expense) increased $1.4 million to $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from ($0.7) million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase was due to an increase in interest income of $0.6 million, a decrease in interest expense of $0.5 million, and a decrease in foreign exchange losses of $0.3 million.
Income Tax. An income tax provision of $0.2 million was recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2001, compared to no income tax provision or benefit during the same period in 2000. The income tax provision in the three months ended June 30, 2001 was primarily due to tax on income earned by foreign subsidiaries while corresponding domestic tax benefit generated by foreign tax credits was not recognized due to the uncertainty of the timing and amount of future taxable income.

We have funded our operations through the issuance of our preferred and common stock, bank borrowings and cash flow from operations. As of June 30, 2001 we had $33.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, $4.0 million in short-term marketable securities, $13.7 million in long-term marketable securities and $41.2 million in working capital.
Net cash used in operating activities was $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Cash used in operations was primarily used to fund the $8.9 million operating loss, net of non-cash charges for depreciation, amortization, provisions for losses on receivables, minority interest, and warrant and stock compensation expenses. Additional uses of cash included an increase in accounts receivables and decreases in accounts payable and deferred revenues, net of the assets and liabilities acquired in the AllPoints acquisition. These uses were offset by an increase in accrued expenses, net of the liabilities acquired in the AllPoints acquisition, attributed to the cost reduction plan. Net cash used in operating activities was $1.1 million for the comparable six months ended June 30, 2000.
Net cash used in investing activities was $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. We incurred approximately $1.6 million in expenses associated with the AllPoints acquisition, purchased property and equipment of $1.1 million, and generated $1.6 million of cash from net sales of marketable securities. Net cash used in investing activities was $0.8 million for the comparable six months ended June 30, 2000.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. We generated cash of $1.1 million from the issuance of common stock, paid off and terminated AllPoints’ $0.8 million line of credit, and reduced other long-term debt by $0.1 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.8 million for the comparable six months ended June 30, 2000, and arose primarily from the proceeds of a revolving line of credit.
We believe that our existing working capital will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next year. However, there can be no assurance that we will not require additional financing in the future. We cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain this additional financing, or that, if we can, the terms will be acceptable to us.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations, and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with these statements. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.
The Company will apply the new rules on accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets beginning in the first quarter of 2002. Application of the nonamortization provisions of the Statement is expected to result in an increase in net income of approximately $9.0 million or $0.20 per share in 2002 as a result of nonamortization of existing goodwill. The Company will perform the first of the required impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets as of January 1, 2002. The effect of these tests on the earnings and financial position of the Company have yet to be determined but may result in a significant charge to earnings in a future period.
Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, this filing and our Annual Report on Form 10-K may contain forward-looking statements. Any statements contained herein (including without limitation statements to the effect that the Company or its management “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “plans,” and similar expressions) that relate to future events or conditions, including, among others, statements relating to the sufficiency of working capital, should be considered forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s opinions only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligations to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We develop products in the United States and market our products in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Australia. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Some of our revenue is denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, in particular the Japanese yen, the Singapore dollar and the Euro. However, most of our sales are currently made in U.S. dollars and a strengthening of the dollar could make our products less competitive in foreign markets.
We used a portion of the proceeds obtained from our August 2000 initial public offering to repay all outstanding amounts under our revolving credit facility and term loan, which we subsequently terminated. To the extent that we enter into a new credit facility in the future, future interest expense could be subject to fluctuations based on the general level of U.S. interest rates.
Pending their application, we have invested the remaining proceeds from our initial public offering in investment grade corporate and government securities and money market funds. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve capital while at the same time maximizing the income we receive from our investments without significantly increasing risk. Some of the securities that we invest in may have market risk. This means that a change in prevailing interest rates may cause the principal amount of the investment to fluctuate. For example, if we hold a security that was issued with a fixed interest rate at the then-prevailing rate and the prevailing interest rate later rises, the principal amount of our investment will probably decline. As of June 30, 2001 we had $28.6 million of securities which mature in 90 days or less, $4.0 million of securities which mature between 90 days and one year, and $13.7 million of securities which mature between one and two years. We do not believe that we have any material exposure to interest rate risk.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
(d) Use of Proceeds
The Company completed its initial public offering of 8.0 million shares of its common stock pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-35106, effective August 3, 2000) on August 9, 2000. Total proceeds from the offering, including the exercise of the over-allotment option, were approximately $63.9 million, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $5.0 million and other fees and expenses of approximately $1.8 million.
Approximately $16.6 million of the offering proceeds were used to pay off and terminate the Company’s revolving line of credit and term loan in August 2000. In January 2001, we completed the acquisition of AllPoints. Approximately $2.4 million was spent on acquisition costs and debt retirement associated with this transaction and approximately $5.8 million has been used to fund operations. The remainder of the proceeds have been invested in investment grade corporate and government securities and money market funds. We intend to use the remaining proceeds for research and development activities; expenditures on sales and marketing, consulting services, and general and administrative personnel; systems costs; and working capital and general corporate purposes, including possible acquisitions of, or investments in, businesses and technologies that are complementary to our business.
