Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2006
(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of our management, these condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position at September 30, 2006, the results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 and cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. The results for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

2. Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

3. Revenue Recognition

Our revenue consists of revenues from the licensing and hosting of software, fees from implementation and training services (collectively, “professional services”), plus customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions, and sales of hardware.

We recognize software license revenue under Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP 97-2”), as amended by Statement of Position No. 98-9, “Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions” (“SOP 98-9”), specifically when the following criteria are met: (1) a signed contract is obtained; (2) delivery of the product has occurred; (3) the license fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectibility is probable. SOP 98-9 requires recognition of revenue using the “residual method” when (1) there is vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair values of all undelivered elements in a multiple-element arrangement that is not accounted for using long-term contract accounting; (2) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value does not exist for one or more of the delivered elements in the arrangement; and (3) all revenue-recognition criteria in SOP 97-2, other than the requirement for vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair value of each delivered element of the arrangement are satisfied. For those contracts that contain significant customization or modifications, license revenue is recognized using contract accounting.

Our services revenue consists of fees generated from professional services, customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions related to our software products. Fees from professional services performed by us are generally billed on an hourly basis, and revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Professional services are sometimes rendered under agreements in which billings are limited to contractual maximums or based upon a fixed-fee for portions of or all of the engagement. Revenue related to fixed-fee based contracts is recognized on a percentage of completion basis based on the hours incurred. Project losses are provided for in their entirety in the period in which they become known. Revenue related to customer support services and software enhancement

Form 10-Q
Page 6 of 40

subscriptions are generally paid in advance and recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically 12 months.

Hardware revenue is generated from the resale of a variety of hardware products, developed and manufactured by third parties that are integrated with and complementary to our software solutions. As part of a complete solution, our customers periodically purchase hardware from us in conjunction with the licensing of software. These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, radio frequency identification (RFID) chip readers, bar code printers and scanners and other peripherals. Hardware revenue is recognized upon shipment to the customer when title passes. We generally purchase hardware from our vendors only after receiving an order from a customer. As a result, we do not maintain significant hardware inventory.

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB’s”) Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 01-14 (“EITF No. 01-14”), “Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of-Pocket Expenses Incurred,” we recognize amounts associated with reimbursements from customers for out-of-pocket expenses as revenue. Such amounts have been classified to hardware and other revenue. The total amount of expense reimbursement recorded to revenue was $2.7 million and $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $7.8 million and $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

4. Investments

Our investments in marketable securities consist principally of debt instruments of the U.S. Treasury, U.S. government agencies, state and local government agencies and corporate commercial paper. These investments are categorized as available-for-sale securities and recorded at fair market value, as defined by SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” Investments with maturities of 90 days or less from the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents; investments with maturities of greater than 90 days from the date of purchase but less than one year are generally classified as short-term investments; and investments with maturities of greater than one year from the date of purchase are generally classified as long-term investments. The long-term investments consist of corporate or U.S. government debt instruments that mature after one year through five years. We hold investments in Auction Rate Securities, which have original maturities greater than one year, but which have auctions to reset the yield every 7 to 35 days. We have classified these assets as short-term investments as the assets are viewed as available to support current operations, based on the provisions of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 3A, “Working Capital-Current Assets and Liabilities.” Unrealized holding gains and losses are reflected as a net amount in a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized. For the purposes of computing realized gains and losses, cost is determined on a specific identification basis.

In July 2003, the Company invested $2.0 million in a technology company. The investment has been accounted for under the cost method, and is included in “Other Assets” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Based on the Company’s assessment of uncertainties associated with the fair value of the investment following an unsuccessful public offering, the Company has written down its investment by $0.3 million during the third quarter of 2006. The $0.3 million charge is included in severance, accounts receivable, acquisition-related, and impairment charges in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

5. Acquisitions

On August 31, 2005, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of Evant, Inc. (“Evant”), and Evant became a wholly-owned subsidiary. Evant was a provider of demand planning and forecasting and replenishment solutions to more than 60 customers in the retail, manufacturing and distribution industries. The acquisition further diversifies our product suite and expands our customer base. We paid

Form 10-Q
Page 7 of 40

an aggregate of $47.2 million in cash, and incurred $0.3 million in acquisition costs and $0.8 million of severance to eliminate duplicative functions. The $47.2 million includes $2.3 million of bonuses paid to employees not retained by us pursuant to an employee bonus plan approved by Evant’s management (the “Evant Bonus Plan”). In addition to the $47.2 million cash paid, we paid $2.8 million into escrow at closing for employee retention purposes pursuant to the Evant Bonus Plan to be distributed to employees upon completion of up to 12 months of service with us. The $2.8 million was recorded as a prepaid asset, and compensation expense was recognized ratably over the required employee retention period. During the third quarter of 2006, we completed the Evant retention bonus program and paid out the final bonuses. The expense was included in a separate line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income under Acquisition-related Charges.

A total of $4.0 million is being held in escrow for 14 months to reimburse us, subject to certain limitations, for potential losses resulting from, among other things, breaches of representations, warranties or covenants in the merger agreement and certain pending and potential claims and other matters specified in the merger agreement; and $0.6 million is being held in escrow for dissenting shareholders as of September 30, 2006 until certain shareholder issues are resolved. The acquisition of Evant was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” The operating results of Evant are included in our financial statements beginning September 1, 2005.

During the third quarter of 2006, the Company finalized its purchase price allocation for Evant resulting in a reclassification of deferred tax assets of $15.2 million and a corresponding increase in goodwill. The Company was not able to fully substantiate the post-acquisition limitations on the deductibility of these assets.

6. Stock-Based Compensation

At September 30, 2006, we have two stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described below. Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for these plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations, as permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (“SFAS 123”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” No expense associated with employee stock options was recognized prior to January 1, 2006 as all options granted under the plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Restricted stock awards were valued based on the quoted fair market value of our stock on the date of grant and recorded as deferred compensation, a reduction of shareholders’ equity. The common stock and additional paid-in capital balances were also adjusted on the date of grant to reflect the issuance of the restricted stock awards. The deferred compensation was amortized to expense over the vesting periods on a straight line basis.

Adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), “Share Based Payment”

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R) (“SFAS 123(R)”) using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized on or after January 1, 2006 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted on or after January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with SFAS 123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated.

Form 10-Q
Page 8 of 40

We recorded stock option compensation cost of $1.8 million and related income tax benefits of $0.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2006, respectively. For the first nine months of the year, we recorded stock option compensation cost of $5.5 million and related income tax benefits of $1.2 million, respectively. Additionally, under the provisions of SFAS 123(R), restricted stock awards are not deemed to be issued until the end of the vesting period. Compensation cost is recorded over the vesting period directly to paid-in capital. Thus, we eliminated our deferred compensation balance as of January 1, 2006 with an offsetting reduction to additional paid-in capital.

Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), we presented all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS 123(R) requires that cash flows resulting from the tax benefits generated by tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows. We generated excess tax benefits of $1.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

The following table shows the net increases (decreases) in selected financial statement line items for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 that resulted from adopting SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006:

6. Stock-Based Compensation (continued)

The following disclosure shows what our net earnings and earnings per share would have been using the fair value compensation model under SFAS 123(R) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005:


	Three Months Ended			Nine Months Ended
	September 30, 2005			September 30, 2005

Deduct: Stock-based employee compensation expense determined under the fair value method for all awards, net of taxes		(4,328	)		(13,360	)

Pro forma in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R)	$	657		$	(364	)
Basic net income (loss) per share:
As reported	$	0.17		$	0.44
Pro forma in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R)	$	0.02		$	(0.01	)
Diluted net income (loss) per share:
As reported	$	0.17		$	0.43
Pro forma in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R)	$	0.02		$	(0.01	)

Pro forma stock compensation during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 was previously disclosed including expenses associated with certain employees that had forfeited awards in earlier periods. As a result, the pro forma information was restated to correctly exclude these forfeited awards. The impact of the restatement is presented below:


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 30, 2005				September 30, 2005
	(in thousands, except per share amounts)
	As				As
	previously				previously

Pro forma net income (loss)	$	674	$	657	$	(1,360	)	$	(364	)

Pro forma net income (loss) per share:

Diluted	$	0.02	$	0.02	$	(0.05	)	$	(0.01	)

Stock-based compensation expense of $4.3 million and $13.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, decreased on a pro forma basis to $1.8 million and $5.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, due to the acceleration of vesting of stock options with an exercise price of $22.09 or higher in the fourth quarter of 2005. The accelerated vesting affected options for approximately 765 option holders, representing 1.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock. In order to prevent unintended personal benefits to individuals resulting from the accelerated vesting of options, we imposed sales restrictions on shares acquired upon exercise of these options that parallel the vesting requirements of the original options. These sales restrictions on the shares acquired continue following termination of employment until the original vesting dates are reached.

Form 10-Q
Page 10 of 40

6. Stock-Based Compensation (continued)

The accelerated vesting of these stock options with exercise prices greater than the then-current market value (“underwater”) was made primarily to avoid recognizing compensation expense in our future income statements upon the adoption of SFAS 123(R) for underwater options that we believed would not offer a sufficient incentive to our employees when compared to the future compensation expense that we would have incurred under SFAS 123(R).

The acceleration resulted in additional pro forma compensation expense of $33.3 million, equal to the unamortized fair value of the options, and $3.9 million representing the incremental value of the options as of the modification date. The total impact to pro forma net income during the fourth quarter of 2005 was $26.9 million.

Stock Based Compensation Plans

The Manhattan Associates LLC Option Plan (the “LLC Option Plan”) became effective on January 1, 1997. The LLC Option Plan is administered by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors. The options are granted at terms determined by the committee; however, the options cannot have a term exceeding ten years. Options granted under the LLC Option Plan have vesting periods ranging from immediately to six years. Subsequent to February 28, 1998, no additional options could be granted pursuant to the LLC Option Plan.

Prior to the establishment of the LLC Option Plan, we issued options to purchase 661,784 shares of common stock to certain employees. These grants contain provisions similar to options issued under the LLC Option Plan.

The Manhattan Associates, Inc. 1998 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Incentive Plan”) was adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by the shareholders in February 1998. The Stock Incentive Plan provides for the grant of stock options. Optionees have the right to purchase a specified number of shares of common stock at a specified option price and subject to such terms and conditions as are specified in connection with the option grant. The Stock Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The committee has the authority to adopt, amend and repeal the administrative rules, guidelines and practices relating to the Stock Incentive Plan generally and to interpret the provisions thereof. Options granted under the Stock Incentive Plan cannot have a term exceeding ten years. Options typically have an annual graded vesting schedule over four years and vest based on service conditions.

As of September 30, 2006, the Stock Incentive Plan provides for issuance of up to 16,010,111 shares of common stock (subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits and other similar events), less the number of shares issued under the LLC Option Plan, in the form of stock options and other stock incentives. The number of shares available for issuance under the Plan is automatically adjusted, without shareholder approval, on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning with the 2000 fiscal year, by a number of shares such that the total number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan equals the sum of (i) the aggregate number of shares previously issued under the Plan and the LLC Option Plan; (ii) the aggregate number of shares subject to then outstanding stock incentives granted under the Plan and the LLC Option Plan; and (iii) 5% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding on the last day of the preceding fiscal year. However, no more than 1,000,000 of the shares available for grant each year shall be available for issuance pursuant to incentive stock options, and no more than 10,000,000 shares resulting from such automatic adjustments may ever be issued during the term of the Plan.

Stock Option Awards

A summary of changes in outstanding options for the period ended September 30, 2006 is as follows:


						Weighted Average		Aggregate
	Number of			Weighted Average		Remaining		Intrinsic Value
	Shares			Exercise Price		Contractual Term		(in thousands)
Outstanding at January 1, 2006		8,149,215		$	23.83
Granted		843,500		$	21.05
Exercised		(545,014	)	$	27.70
Cancelled		(1,450,300	)	$	25.94

Outstanding at September 30, 2006		6,997,401		$	24.18		6.2	$	18,545


Vested or expected to vest at September 30, 2006		6,534,689		$	24.42		6.2	$	16,957

Exercisable at September 30, 2006		5,833,783		$	24.84		6.1	$	14,746

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005:


	2006			2005
Dividend yield		0	%		0	%
Expected volatility		57	%		58	%
Risk-free interest rate at the date of grant		4.8	%		4.1	%
Expected life (in years)		5.0			5.3

Effective January 1, 2006, expected volatilities are based on a combination of historical volatility of our stock and implied volatility of our publicly traded stock options. Due to the limited trading volume of our publicly traded options, we place a greater emphasis on historical volatility. Previously, we had relied exclusively on historical volatility, disregarding periods of time in which our share price was extraordinarily volatile because of circumstances that were not expected to recur. We also use historical data to estimate the term that options are expected to be outstanding and the forfeiture rate of options granted. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term approximating the expected term. Using these assumptions, the weighted average fair values of the stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 are $11.28 and $12.03, respectively.

Options with graded vesting are valued as a single award. The total value of the award is expensed on a straight line basis over the vesting period with the amount of compensation cost recognized at any date at least equal to the portion of the grant date value of the award that is vested at that date. During the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, we issued 545,014 and 170,848 shares of common stock, respectively, resulting from the exercise of stock options. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 based on market value at the exercise dates was $6.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2006, unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock option awards totaled $8.0 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years.

Restricted Stock Awards

We also issued shares of restricted stock under the Stock Incentive Plan. A summary of changes in unvested shares of restricted stock for the period ended September 30, 2006 is as follows:


				Weighted Average
	Number			Grant Date
	of Shares			Fair Value
Outstanding, unvested at January 1, 2006		10,587		$	28.57
Granted		—		$	—
Vested		(4,377	)	$	(28.71	)
Forfeited		—		$	—

Outstanding, unvested at September 30, 2006		6,210		$	28.47

There were no shares of restricted stock issued during 2006 and 2005. The total fair value of restricted stock awards vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 based on market value at the vesting dates was $0.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2006, unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock awards totaled $0.1 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.1 years.

7. Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income includes net income, foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on investments that are excluded from net income and reflected in shareholders’ equity.

The following table sets forth the calculation of comprehensive income:


	Three Months Ended					Nine Months Ended
	September 30,					September 30,
	2006		2005			2006		2005
	(in thousands)					(in thousands)
Net income	$	5,244	$	4,966		$	14,517	$	12,900
Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax:
Unrealized gain (loss) on investments, net of taxes		95		3			159		(2	)
Foreign currency translation adjustment, net of taxes		362		(120	)		159		(324	)

Total other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes		457		(117	)		318		(326	)

Comprehensive income	$	5,701	$	4,849		$	14,835	$	12,574

8. Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed using net income divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (“Weighted Shares”) for the period presented. Diluted net income per share is computed using net income divided by Weighted Shares plus common equivalent shares (“CESs”) outstanding for each period presented using the treasury stock method.

Form 10-Q
Page 13 of 40

The following is a reconciliation of the income and share amounts used in the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2006		2005		2006			2005
	(in thousands, except per share amounts)				(in thousands, except per share amounts)
Net income	$	5,244	$	4,966	$	14,517		$	12,900

Earnings per Share:
Basic	$	0.19	$	0.17	$	0.53		$	0.44
Effect of CESs		—		—		(0.01	)		(0.01	)

Diluted	$	0.19	$	0.17	$	0.52		$	0.43

Weighted average number of shares:
Basic		26,969		28,392		27,151			29,060
Effect of CESs		493		663		537			626

Diluted		27,462		29,055		27,688			29,686

Weighted average shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options that were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share were 4,571,883 shares and 4,998,858 shares for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively and 5,228,033 shares and 5,189,958 shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Such shares were not included because they were antidilutive.

9. Contingencies

We are in litigation with a large German customer regarding their delayed implementation of our warehouse management system. During the second quarter of 2005, we recorded a $2.8 million bad debt provision for the entire amount of the accounts receivable due from the large customer, as we considered collection to be doubtful. The $2.8 million bad debt provision is our best estimate of costs to be incurred with respect to this matter. However, this amount may change if litigation expenses are incurred or a settlement is reached that are not covered by our corporate insurance policies. While no assurance can be given regarding the outcome of this matter because of the nature and inherent uncertainties of disputes, should the outcome be unfavorable, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of its ordinary course of business. Many of our installations involve products that are critical to the operations of our clients' businesses. Any failure in a product could result in a claim for substantial damages against us, regardless of our responsibility for such failure. Although we attempt to limit contractually our liability for damages arising from product failures or negligent acts or omissions, there can be no assurance the limitations of liability set forth in our contracts will be enforceable in all instances. In addition to the matter with the large German customer, we are involved in litigation with one domestic customer regarding the implementation of our warehouse management system. We believe that any liability that may arise as a result of this proceeding will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. However, this may change if litigation expenses are incurred, a judgement is entered or a settlement is reached that are not covered by our corporate insurance policies. In addition to the identified litigation, we are involved in various legal proceedings from time to time. We expense legal costs associated with loss contingencies as such legal costs are incurred.

10. Operating Segments

We operate our business in three geographical segments: the Americas, Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) and Asia Pacific. The information for the periods presented below reflects these segments. All segments derive revenue from the sale and implementation of our supply chain execution and planning solutions, of which the individual products are similar in nature and help companies manage the effectiveness and efficiency of their supply chain. We use the same accounting policies for each operating segment. The chief executive officer and chief financial officer evaluate performance based on revenue and operating results for each region.

The Americas segment charges royalty fees to the EMEA and Asia Pacific segments based on software licenses sold by those operating segments. The royalties, which totaled approximately $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $1.6 million for both the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 are included in cost of revenue in EMEA and Asia Pacific with a corresponding reduction in the Americas cost of revenue. The revenues represented below are from external customers only. The geographical-based costs consist of costs of personnel, direct sales and marketing expenses, cost of infrastructure to support the employees and customer base, billing and financial systems and general and administrative costs. There are certain corporate expenses included in the Americas region that are not charged to the other segments including research and development, certain marketing and general and administrative costs that support the global organization and the amortization of acquired developed technology. Included in the Americas costs are all research and development costs including the costs associated with our India operations.

In accordance with SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” we have included a summary of the financial information by operating segment. The following table presents the revenues, expenses and operating income (loss) by operating segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands):

11. New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123(R), which requires us to expense share-based payments, including employee stock options, based on their fair value. We adopted SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006. We discuss our adoption of SFAS 123(R) and the adoption’s effects in Note 6 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this quarterly report.

Form 10-Q
Page 17 of 40

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections — A replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3” (“SFAS 154”). The FASB issued SFAS 154 to provide guidance on the accounting for and reporting of error corrections. Unless otherwise impracticable, it establishes retrospective application as the required method for reporting a change in accounting principle in the absence of explicit transition requirements specific to the newly adopted accounting principle. SFAS 154 also provides guidance for determining whether retrospective application is impracticable and for reporting an accounting change when retrospective application is impracticable. Furthermore, this statement addresses the reporting of a correction of an error in previously issued financial statements by restating previously issued financial statements. This Statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this statement did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. We are currently assessing FIN 48 and have not determined the impact that the adoption of FIN 48 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Business

We are a leading provider of technology-based supply chain solutions that help companies manage the effectiveness and efficiency of their supply chain. Our solutions consist of software, services and hardware and are used for both the planning and execution of supply chain activities. These solutions help coordinate the actions and communication of manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, retailers, transportation providers and consumers. Our solutions consist of two main areas—supply chain planning and supply chain execution, which on a combined basis represent our supply chain management solution.

We call the combination of our supply chain planning solutions Integrated Planning Solutions™. Integrated Planning Solutions consist of Advanced Planning, Demand Forecasting and Replenishment. With our Advanced Planning solutions, Financial and Item Planning, Catalog Planning, Web Planning and Promotion Planning, companies can plan their inventory using several methodologies. Financial and Item planning enables companies to develop top-down and bottom-up plans across multiple channels and multiple levels of the product hierarchy. Catalog Planning and Web Planning support the unique planning requirements of the catalog and Web channels. With Promotion Planning, companies are able to plan and manage promotional events and assortments. Demand Forecasting enables companies to generate and maintain forecasts at different levels of product data. It also includes a Promotion Forecasting solution which generates a promotion forecast and promotional lift based on historical sales. Finally, Replenishment helps companies regulate, maintain and deploy inventory, as well as supports Vendor Managed Inventory, which allows suppliers to manage their own replenishment.

We refer to the combination of our supply chain execution solutions as Integrated Logistics Solution™. Integrated Logistics Solutions consist of Distributed Order Management, Warehouse Management, Slotting Optimization, Labor Management, Yard Management, Transportation Management Systems (TMS), Trading Partner Management (TPM), Reverse Logistics Management and RFID Solutions. Distributed Order Management manages the order fulfillment process, capturing and allocating orders across the supply chain to balance supply with demand. Warehouse Management manages the processes that take place in a distribution center, beginning with the placement of an order by a customer and ending with order fulfillment. Slotting Optimization determines the optimal layout of a facility. Labor Management enables the tracking, monitoring and management of employee activities within the warehouse. Transportation Management allows companies to optimally plan and execute transportation services. Yard Management plans, executes, tracks and audits all incoming and outgoing loads, managing both the yard and dock door.

Our RFID Solutions help capture and track EPC data and utilize this information to better manage and track inventory.

For all of our solutions, we offer services such as design, configuration, implementation, product assessment and training plus customer support and software enhancement subscriptions.

Certain developments described in the next section affect the comparability of our financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005.

Recent Developments

Adoption of SFAS 123(R).Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for our employee stock option plan under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations, as permitted by SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” No stock-based employee compensation cost related to stock options was

Form 10-Q
Page 19 of 40

recognized in the Statements of Income for periods prior to January 1, 2006, as all stock options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized on or after January 1, 2006 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). Results for all prior periods have not been restated. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), we presented all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS 123(R) requires that cash flows resulting from the tax benefits generated by tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows.

As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006, our income before income taxes and net income for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were $1.8 million and $1.5 million lower, respectively, and our income before income taxes and net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $5.5 million and $4.3 million lower, respectively, than if we had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB Opinion No. 25. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, basic earnings per share were $0.05 and $0.16 lower, respectively, and diluted earnings per share were $0.05 and $0.15 lower, respectively, than if we had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB Opinion No. 25.

The fair value of options granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on certain assumptions, including the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the price of the underlying share for the expected term of the option, the expected dividends on the underlying share for the expected term, and the risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option. Effective January 1, 2006, expected volatilities are based on a combination of historical volatility of our stock and implied volatility of our publicly traded stock options. Due to the limited trading volume of our publicly traded options, we place a greater emphasis on historical volatility. Previously, we had relied exclusively on historical volatility, disregarding periods of time in which our share price was extraordinarily volatile because of circumstances that were not expected to recur. We also use historical data to estimate the term that options are expected to be outstanding and the forfeiture rate of options granted. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term approximating the expected term. The weighted-average grant-date fair values of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 were $11.28 and $12.03, respectively. We recognize compensation cost for awards with graded vesting using the straight-line attribution method, with the amount of compensation cost recognized at any date at least equal to the portion of the grant-date value of the award that is vested at that date. At September 30, 2006, the unamortized compensation cost related to stock option awards totaled $8.0 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years.

During the fourth quarter of 2005, the Board of Directors approved an Option Acceleration Agreement that accelerated the vesting of unvested stock options held by our employees with an exercise price of $22.09 or higher. The accelerated vesting affected options for approximately 765 option holders, representing 1.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock. In order to prevent unintended personal benefits to individuals resulting from the accelerated vesting of options, we imposed sales restrictions on shares acquired upon exercise of these options that parallel the vesting requirements of the original options. These sales restrictions on the shares acquired continue following termination of employment until the original vesting dates are reached.

Form 10-Q
Page 20 of 40

We expect the full year 2006 impact to diluted earnings per share to be approximately $0.20. Compensation cost recognized in any period is impacted by the number of stock options granted and the vesting period (which generally is four years), as well as the underlying assumptions used in estimating the fair value on the date of grant. This estimate is dependent upon a number of variables such as the number of options awarded, cancelled or exercised and fluctuations in the Company’s share price during the year.

Acquisition.On August 31, 2005, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of Evant, and Evant became a wholly-owned subsidiary. Evant is a provider of demand planning and forecasting and replenishment solutions to more than 60 customers in the retail, manufacturing and distribution industries. The acquisition further diversifies our product suite and expands our customer base. We paid an aggregate of $47.2 million in cash, and incurred $0.3 million in acquisition costs and $0.8 million of severance to eliminate duplicative functions. The $47.2 million includes $2.3 million of bonuses paid to employees not retained by us pursuant to an employee bonus plan approved by Evant’s management (the “Evant Bonus Plan”). In addition to the $47.2 million cash paid, we paid $2.8 million into escrow at closing for employee retention purposes pursuant to the Evant Bonus Plan to be distributed to employees upon completion of up to 12 months of service with us. The $2.8 million was recorded as a prepaid asset, and compensation expense was recognized ratably over the required employee retention period. During the third quarter of 2006, we completed the Evant retention bonus program and paid out the final bonuses.

Impairment Charge.In July 2003, the Company invested $2.0 million in a technology company. Based on our assessment of uncertainties associated with the fair value of our investment following an unsuccessful public offering, we have written down our investment in the third quarter of 2006 by $0.3 million.

Results of Operations

Overview

Our primary goal is to expand our position as a leading provider of technology-based supply chain solutions that help companies manage the effectiveness and efficiency of their supply chain by delivering integrated, modular solutions to our customers. With the addition and integration of new products resulting from the acquisitions completed during the last three years, along with releases of new versions of our product suite with enhanced functionality, we have been able to accomplish continued revenue growth. In addition, the Evant acquisition in the third quarter of 2005 has expanded our target market to include supply chain planning, which we anticipate will help drive revenue growth.

In 2006, we plan to continue to enhance both our supply chain planning and supply chain execution solutions, expand globally and further develop our sales and marketing, including strategic alliances and indirect sales channels. Our success could be limited by several factors, including spending on information technology, the timely release of quality new products and releases, continued market acceptance of our solutions and the introduction of new products by existing or new competitors.

We continue to experience the effects of a weak spending environment for information technology in Europe, in the form of delayed and cancelled buying decisions by customers for our software, services and hardware, deferrals by customers of service engagements previously scheduled and pressure by our customers and competitors to discount our offerings. Separately, we believe that a deterioration in the current business climates within the United States and/or other geographic regions in which we operate, continued delays in capital spending, or the timing of deals closed could have a material adverse impact on our future operations and quarterly results.

The following table summarizes our consolidated results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. The 2006 results include the adoption of SFAS 123(R):

Total revenue	$	72,312	$	62,307		16	%		100	%		100	%

Our revenue consists of fees generated from the licensing and hosting of software; fees from professional services, customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions; and sales of complementary radio frequency and computer equipment. We believe our revenue growth from 2005 to 2006 is attributable to several factors, including, among others, our market leadership position as to breadth of product offerings, financial stability and a compelling return on investment proposition for our customers, increased services associated with implementations of our expanded product suite, geographic expansion, and the acquisition of Evant which provided us with a supply chain planning solution.

License revenue.License revenue increased 21% in the quarter ended September 30, 2006 over the prior year driven by strong growth in our Americas segment. The Americas license and hosting revenues increased $4.4 million, or 46%, compared to the prior year third quarter of 2005. This increase was partially offset by declines in EMEA and Asia Pacific license sales of $1.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively. A number of factors impacted revenue growth in our international segments including traditional seasonality in both EMEA and Asia Pacific regions, and the EMEA economy, which continues to be sluggish with large capital project technology spending.

License sales mix across our product suite remained strong in the quarter with approximately 60% of sales in our warehouse management solutions and 40% in non-warehouse management solutions. With our expanded suite of supply chain solutions we continue to see solid growth in both our core warehouse management solutions with 7% growth in the quarter and non-warehouse management solutions growth of 50% over the prior year quarter.

Services revenue.Services revenue increased 17% in the third quarter of 2006 principally due to: (i) a 15% increase of professional services revenue required to implement larger projects, increased license sales and existing customer upgrades to more current versions of our offerings; and (ii) a 23% increase in revenue from software enhancement subscription agreements. Over the past several years, we have experienced some pricing pressures with regard to our services. We believe that the pricing pressures are attributable to global macro-economic conditions and competitive pressures. Our services revenue growth has been and will likely continue to be affected by the mix of products sold. The individual engagements involving our non-warehouse management solutions typically require less implementation services.

Hardware and other.Sales of hardware decreased by 18% to $3.3 million in the third quarter of 2006 compared to $4.0 million in the third quarter of 2005. Sales of hardware are largely dependent upon customer-specific desires, which fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses are required to be classified as revenue and are included in hardware and other revenue. For the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, reimbursements by customers for out-of-pocket expenses were approximately $2.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

Geographic regions.We manage our business based on three geographic regions: the Americas, EMEA, and Asia Pacific. Geographic revenue information is based on the location of sale. During the third quarters of 2006 and 2005, we derived the majority of our revenues from sales to customers within our Americas region. Revenues by region represented the following percentages of total revenues for the periods indicated:


	Three Months Ended
	September 30,
	2006			2005
Americas		84	%		79	%
EMEA		9	%		14	%
Asia Pacific		7	%		7	%

Revenues in Americas increased by 24% in absolute dollars and 5% as a percentage of total revenue due to record software sales and services revenue during the quarter. Revenues in EMEA decreased by 24% in absolute dollars and 5% as a percentage of total revenue. The continued weak spending environment has put downward pressure on our license and services revenues in the region due to a lack of sustained large license deal growth. Third quarter revenues in Asia Pacific increased by 8% in absolute dollars and remained constant as a percentage of total revenue. Additional financial data for each geographic region can be found in Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cost of Revenue


	Quarter Ended September 30,				% Change
	2006		2005		2005 to 2006
	(in thousands)
Cost of license	$	1,400	$	1,022		37	%
Cost of services	$	24,231	$	19,952		21	%
Cost of hardware and other	$	5,356	$	5,078		5	%

Cost of license.Cost of license consists of the costs associated with software reproduction; hosting services; funded development; media, packaging and delivery, documentation and other related costs; and royalties on third-party software sold with or as part of our products. The increase in cost of software in the third quarter of 2006 is attributable to a 21% increase in license revenues.

Cost of services.Cost of services consists primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of employees dedicated to professional and technical services and customer support services. The increase in cost of services in the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was principally due to increases in salary-related costs resulting from: (i) a 22% increase in the average number of personnel dedicated to the delivery of professional services outside of India, part of which resulted from the Evant acquisition; (ii) average services personnel in India increased by 59% over the third quarter of 2005; and (iii) annual compensation increases for 2005 and 2006, effective May 1, 2005 and January 1, 2006, respectively. Also contributing to the increase over 2005 was $0.5 million of stock compensation expense in the third quarter of 2006 resulting from the adoption of SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006.

Cost of hardware and other. Cost of hardware decreased to approximately $2.6 million in the third quarter of 2006 from approximately $3.0 million in the third quarter of 2005 as a direct result of lower sales of hardware. The increase in the cost of hardware as a percentage of hardware revenue is principally due to an increase in the percentage of hardware products sold with relatively higher gross margins during the three months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005. Cost of hardware and other includes out-of-pocket expenses to be reimbursed by customers of approximately $2.7 million and $2.1 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

activities in our India operations; (ii) a $0.3 million increase in travel expenses related to ongoing projects in our India operations; and (iii) $0.3 million of stock compensation expense in the third quarter of 2006 resulting from the adoption of SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006.

The number of research and development personnel in our India operations increased to 483 at September 30, 2006 from 338 at September 30, 2005. Our principal research and development activities during 2006 and 2005 focused on the expansion and integration of new products acquired and new product releases and expanding the product footprint of both our comprehensive Integrated Logistics Solutions and Integrated Planning Solutions product suites. In addition, we invested in our Logistics Event Management Architecture (“LEMA”) platform, which is designed to provide our customers with a comprehensive, services-oriented supply chain platform.

For the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, we capitalized no research and development costs because the costs incurred following the attainment of technological feasibility for the related software product through the date of general release were insignificant.

Sales and marketing.Sales and marketing expenses include salaries, commissions, travel and other personnel-related costs and the costs of our marketing and alliance programs and related activities. The increase in sales and marketing expenses from the third quarter of 2005 to the third quarter of 2006 was attributable to: (i) an increase of $0.7 million in bonus and incentive compensation expense relating to higher license fees in the third quarter of 2006; (ii) an increase of approximately $0.3 million in travel expense during the third quarter of 2006; (iii) annual compensation increases for 2005 and 2006, effective May 1, 2005 and January 1, 2006, respectively; (iv) a 17% increase in sales and marketing headcount, and (v) $0.4 million of stock compensation expense in the third quarter of 2006 resulting from the adoption of SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006.

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related costs of executive, financial, human resources, information technology and administrative personnel, as well as facilities, depreciation, legal, insurance, accounting and other administrative expenses. The increase in general and administrative expenses during the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was attributable to: (i) an increase in salary-related costs resulting from additional personnel combined with annual compensation increases for 2005 and 2006, effective May 1, 2005 and January 1, 2006, respectively; (ii) an increase of approximately $0.7 million in professional fees and contract labor; and (iii) $0.6 million of stock compensation expense in the third quarter of 2006 resulting from the adoption of SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation expense amounted to $2.2 million and $1.9 million during the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Amortization of intangibles amounted to $1.2 million for both the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. We have recorded goodwill and other acquisition-related intangible assets as part of the purchase accounting associated with various acquisitions, including the acquisitions of Evant in August 2005, eebiznet in July 2004, Avere, Inc. in January 2004, ReturnCentral, Inc. in June 2003, and Logistics.com, Inc. in December 2002.

Severance, accounts receivable, acquisition-related and impairment charges. Charges in the quarter totaled $0.4 million which consisted of $0.3 million impairment charge related to an investment in a technology company and final Evant employee retention charge of approximately $0.1 million. In July 2003, the Company invested $2.0 million in a technology company. Based on our assessment of uncertainties associated with the fair value of our investment following an unsuccessful public offering, we have written down our investment in the third quarter of 2006 by $0.3 million. We will continue to monitor this investment as additional impairment charges may be required.

million was recorded as a prepaid asset, and was recognized as compensation expense ratably over the required employee retention period. During the third quarter of 2006, we completed the Evant retention bonus program and paid out the final bonuses.

Operating Income, Other Income and Taxes


	Quarter Ended September 30,				% Change
	2006		2005		2005 to 2006
	(in thousands)
Operating income	$	8,436	$	7,251		16	%
Other income, net	$	630	$	877		-28	%
Income tax provision	$	3,822	$	3,162		21	%

Operating income.The increase in operating income in the third quarter of 2006 compared to the prior year was driven by a $10.0 million increase in consolidated revenues and improved gross margins, partially offset by incremental expense associated with the Evant acquisition, expansion of our India operations, and $1.8 million of stock-based compensation expense resulting from the adoption of SFAS 123(R). See Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other income, net. Other income, net includes interest income and interest expense and foreign currency gains and losses. Interest income was $0.7 million in 2006 and 2005 decreasing on lower overall cash balances. We recorded approximately $0.3 million of interest expense in 2005 relating to interest resulting from state sales tax audits. The weighted-average interest rate earned on investment securities during the three month periods ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 was approximately 3.6% and 3.1%, respectively. We recorded a net foreign currency gain of $0.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2006 and a net foreign currency gain of $0.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2005. The foreign currency gains and losses resulted from gains or losses on intercompany balances with subsidiaries due to the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar relative to other foreign currencies, primarily the British Pound and the Euro.

Income tax provision.Our effective income tax rates were 42.2% and 38.9% in the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The 2006 rate increase includes the impact of non-deductible stock compensation expense resulting from our adoption of SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006.

2006 is attributable to several factors, including, among others, the acquisition of Evant which provided us with a supply chain planning solution, increased services associated with implementations of our expanded product suite, geographic expansion, our market leadership position as to breadth of product offerings, financial stability and a compelling return on investment proposition for our customers.

License revenue.License revenue increased 16% in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 over the prior year driven by strong growth in our Americas segment. The Americas license and hosting revenues increased $7.2 million, or 21%, in the nine months compared to the prior year nine months of 2005. This increase was partially offset by declines in EMEA and Asia Pacific license sales of $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, over the nine months of 2005. A number of factors impacted revenue growth in our international segments including traditional seasonality in both EMEA and Asia Pacific regions, and the EMEA economy, which continues to be sluggish with large capital project technology spending.

License sales mix across our product suite remained strong in the nine months with approximately 60% of sales in our warehouse management solutions and 40% in non-warehouse management solutions. New to existing customer license sales mix was approximately 60/40% split in the nine months. With our expanded suite of supply chain solutions we continue to see solid growth in our core warehouse management solutions with 15% growth in the nine months and non-warehouse management solutions growth of 17% over the prior year nine months.

Services revenue.Services revenue increased 18% in the nine months of 2006 principally due to: (i) a 21% increase of professional services revenue required to implement larger projects, increased license sales and existing customer upgrades to more current versions of our offerings; and (ii) a 22% increase in revenue from software enhancement subscription agreements.

Our services revenue growth has been and will likely continue to be affected by the mix of products sold. The individual engagements involving our non-warehouse management solutions typically require less implementation services.

Hardware and other.Sales of hardware increased by 20% to $13.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $10.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Sales of hardware are largely dependent upon customer-specific desires, which fluctuate. Reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses are required to be classified as revenue and are included in hardware and other revenue. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, reimbursements by customers for out-of-pocket expenses were approximately $7.8 million and $5.8 million, respectively.

Geographic regions.We manage our business based on three geographic regions: the Americas, EMEA, and Asia Pacific. Geographic revenue information is based on the location of sale. During the first nine months of 2006 and 2005, we derived the majority of our revenues from sales to customers within our Americas region. Revenues by region represented the following percentages of total revenues for the periods indicated:


	Nine Months Ended

Americas		83	%		81	%
EMEA		10	%		13	%
Asia Pacific		7	%		6	%

Form 10-Q
Page 28 of 40

Revenues in Americas increased by 22% in absolute dollars and 2% as a percentage of total revenue due to record software sales and services revenue during the first nine months. Revenues in EMEA decreased by 12% in absolute dollars and 3% as a percentage of total revenue. The continued weak spending environment has put downward pressure on our license and service revenues in the region due to lack of sustained big deal growth. Revenues for the first nine months in Asia Pacific increased by 32% in absolute dollars and 1% as a percentage of total revenue. Additional financial data for each geographic region can be found in Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cost of services.Cost of services consists primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of employees dedicated to professional and technical services and customer support services. The increase in cost of services in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was principally due to increases in salary-related costs resulting from: (i) a 18% increase in the average number of personnel dedicated to the delivery of professional services outside of India, part of which resulted from the Evant acquisition; (ii) average services personnel in India increased by 72% over 2005; (iii) a $1.0 million increase in bonus expense based on our cumulative performance relative to internal plans; and (iv) annual compensation increases for 2005 and 2006, effective May 1, 2005 and January 1, 2006, respectively. Also contributing to the increase over 2005 was $1.6 million of stock compensation expense in 2006 resulting from the adoption of SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006.

Cost of hardware and other. Cost of hardware increased to approximately $10.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from approximately $8.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as a direct result of higher sales of hardware. The increase in the cost of hardware as a percentage of hardware revenue is principally due to an increase in the percentage of hardware products sold with relatively higher gross margins during the nine months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Cost of hardware and other includes out-of-pocket expenses to be reimbursed by customers of approximately $7.7 million and $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation expense amounted to $6.3 million and $5.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Amortization of intangibles amounted to $3.7 million and $3.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. We have recorded goodwill and other acquisition-related intangible assets as part of the purchase accounting associated with various acquisitions, including the acquisitions of Evant in August 2005, eebiznet in July 2004, Avere, Inc. in January 2004, ReturnCentral, Inc. in June 2003, and Logistics.com, Inc. in December 2002. The increase in 2006 was attributable to the intangible asset amortization expense from the Evant acquisition, which totaled approximately $2.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Severance, accounts receivable, acquisition-related and impairment charges. Charges in the nine months totaled $1.8 million which consisted of $0.3 million impairment charge related to an investment in a technology company and final Evant employee retention charge of approximately $1.5 million. In July 2003, the Company invested $2.0 million in a technology company. Based on our assessment of uncertainties associated with the fair value of our investment following an unsuccessful public offering, we have written down our investment in the third quarter of 2006 by $0.3 million. We will continue to monitor this investment as additional impairment charges may be required.

At the closing of the Evant acquisition, $2.8 million was deposited into escrow for employee retention purposes and was distributed to employees upon completion of up to 12 months of service with us. The $2.8 million was recorded as a prepaid asset, and was recognized as compensation expense ratably over the required employee retention period. During the third quarter of 2006, we completed the Evant retention bonus program and paid out the final bonuses.

During the first nine months of 2005, we recorded $5.5 million of severance, accounts receivable and acquisition-related charges. Included in the $5.5 million were: (i) a $2.8 million bad debt provision for the entire amount of the accounts receivable due from a large German customer with which we have had a challenging relationship and for which we consider collection to be doubtful; (ii) approximately $1.1 million in severance-related costs associated with the consolidation of our European operations into the Netherlands, United Kingdom and France; (iii) $1.1 million of severance-related costs associated with the acquisition of Evant; and (iv) $0.5 million in acquisition-related costs associated with an attempted acquisition that did not close. The $2.8 million bad debt provision is our best estimate of costs to be incurred from the termination of our business relationship with the large challenging customer. However, this amount may change if the issue results in litigation or if a settlement is reached that is not covered by our corporate insurance policies. It is not possible at this time to estimate the amount of any such potential costs. As part of the restructuring in Europe, we eliminated 17 sales and professional services positions throughout Europe. We anticipate that there will be no further costs relating to the restructuring in future quarters. The severance-related costs associated with Evant consisted primarily of one-time payments to employees not retained due to duplicative functions. The acquisition-related costs incurred consisted of outside legal and accounting due diligence expenses.

Operating Income, Other Income and Taxes


	Nine Months Ended September 30,				% Change
	2006		2005		2005 to 2006
	(in thousands)
Operating income	$	22,386	$	21,227		5	%
Other income, net	$	2,727	$	1,971		38	%
Income tax provision	$	10,596	$	10,298		3	%

Operating income.The increase in operating income during 2006 compared to the prior year was driven by record increases in our consolidated revenues, partially offset by incremental expense associated with the Evant acquisition, higher variable compensation accruals in 2006 driven by record revenues and earnings, expansion of our India operations, and stock option expense associated with the adoption of SFAS 123(R). See Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other income, net. Other income, net includes interest income and interest expense and foreign currency gains and losses. Interest income was $2.4 million in 2006 versus approximately $3.0 million in 2005 decreasing on lower overall cash balances. We recorded approximately $0.3 million of interest expense in 2005 relating to interest resulting from state sales tax audits. The weighted-average interest rate earned on investment securities during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 was approximately 3.5% and 2.8%, respectively. We recorded a net foreign currency gain of $0.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and a net foreign currency loss of $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The foreign currency gains and losses resulted from gains or losses on intercompany balances with subsidiaries due to the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar relative to other foreign currencies, primarily the British Pound and the Euro.

Income tax provision.Our effective income tax rates were 42.2% and 44.4% in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The 2006 rate includes the impact of non-deductible stock compensation expense resulting from our adoption of SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006. The higher tax rate in 2005 was attributable to the inability to recognize significant tax benefit from the $4.4 million of severance, accounts receivable, and acquisition related charges due to the recent losses in the foreign locations where most of these charges occurred.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have funded our operations through cash generated from operations. As of September 30, 2006, we had approximately $117.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments, as compared to $93.7 million at December 31, 2005.

Our operating activities generated cash flow of approximately $41.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and $28.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Cash flow from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 increased on record collections and record revenue. Cash from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 arose principally from operating income and lower net working capital requirements. Days sales outstanding (“DSO”) decreased to 67 days at September 30, 2006 from 81 days at December 31, 2005, as a result of strong collections. We expect DSO to return to the low 70s as a more consistent barometer.

Our investing activities used cash of approximately $37.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and approximately $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The

Form 10-Q
Page 32 of 40

use of cash for investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was the purchase of approximately $7.5 million of capital equipment and the net purchases of investments of approximately $29.6 million. The use of cash for investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was for the purchases of approximately $7.3 million of capital equipment to support our business and infrastructure and the purchase of Evant for $48.7 million, offset by net maturities of investments of approximately $52.5 million.

Our financing activities used cash of approximately $9.2 million and $39.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The principal use of cash for financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 was to purchase approximately $16.0 million and $41.3 million of our common stock during each period, respectively, partially offset by the proceeds from the issuance of our common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock options. In 2006, we have repurchased 773,301 shares at an average price of $20.73. As of September 30, 2006, we have $42.9 million of Board approved share repurchase authority remaining.

Periodically, opportunities may arise to grow our business through the acquisition of complementary and synergistic companies, products and technologies. Any material acquisition could result in a decrease to our working capital depending on the amount, timing and nature of the consideration to be paid. We believe that existing balances of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs at least for the next twelve months, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The SEC defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes. In preparing these financial statements, management has made estimates and judgments relating to certain amounts included in the financial statements. As a result, application of these accounting policies will cause actual results to differ from these estimates.

We have identified the following as our critical accounting policies:

Revenues and Revenue Recognition

Our revenue is derived from (i) License Revenue, which consist of revenue from the licensing and hosting of software and revenue from funded research and development efforts; (ii) Services Revenue, which consist of fees from consulting, implementation and training services (collectively, “professional services”), plus customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions; and (iii) Hardware and Other Revenue, which consists of sales of hardware and reimbursed project expenses.

Revenue recognition rules for software companies are very complex. We recognize software fees in accordance with Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP 97-2”), as amended. Although we follow very specific and detailed guidelines in measuring revenue, the application of those guidelines requires judgment including: (i) whether a software arrangement includes multiple elements, and if so, whether vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for those elements; (ii)

Form 10-Q
Page 33 of 40

whether customizations or modifications of the software are significant; and (iii) whether collection of the software fee is probable. Additionally, we specifically evaluate any other terms in our license transactions, including but not limited to, options to purchase additional software at a future date, extended payment terms, functionality commitments not delivered with the software and existing outstanding receivable balances in making the determination of the amount and timing of revenue recognition.

Most of our software arrangements include professional services. Professional services revenues are generally accounted for separately from the software license revenues because the arrangements qualify as “service transactions” as defined by SOP 97-2. The most significant factors considered in determining whether the revenue should be accounted for separately include the nature of the services (i.e., consideration of whether the services are essential to the functionality of the licensed product, degree of risk, availability of services from other vendors and timing of payments). We provide our professional services under services agreements on a time and material basis or based on a fixed-price and/or fixed-time arrangement. The revenues from our time and material based professional consulting and implementation services are recognized as the work is performed, provided that the customer has a contractual obligation to pay, the fee is non-refundable and collection is probable. Delays in project implementation will result in delays in revenue recognition. For our professional consulting services under fixed-price and/or fixed-time arrangements, we recognize the related revenues on a proportional performance basis, with progress-to-completion measured by using labor costs input compared to estimated cost of completion. Revisions to the estimates are reflected in the period in which changes become known. Project losses are provided for in their entirety in the period they become known, without regard to the percentage-of-completion. If we do not accurately estimate the resources required or the scope of work to be performed, or if we do not manage our projects properly within the planned periods of time, then future consulting margins on our projects may be negatively affected or losses on existing contracts may need to be recognized.

Hardware revenue is generated from the resale of a variety of hardware products, developed and manufactured by third parties, which are integrated with and complementary to our software solutions. These products include computer equipment, radio frequency terminal networks, RFID chip readers, bar code printers and scanners and other peripherals. We generally purchase hardware from our vendors only after receiving an order from a customer, and revenue is recognized upon shipment by the vendor to the customer.

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized on or after January 1, 2006 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted on or after January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with SFAS 123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated. SFAS 123(R) requires that cash flows resulting from the tax benefits generated by tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows.

Management judgments and assumptions related to volatility, the expected term and the forfeiture rate are made in connection with the calculation of stock compensation expense. We periodically review all assumptions used in our stock option pricing model. Changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on the amount of stock compensation expense.

Accounts Receivable

We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain an allowance for estimated credit losses based upon our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified. Additions to the allowance for doubtful accounts generally represent a sales allowance on services revenue, which are recorded to operations as a reduction to services revenue. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. Our top five customers in aggregate accounted for 23% and 13% of total revenue for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of revenue in the third quarters of 2006 or 2005.

During the second quarter of 2005, we recorded a $2.8 million bad debt provision for the entire amount of the accounts receivable due from the large customer, as we considered collection to be doubtful. The $2.8 million bad debt provision is our best estimate of costs to be incurred with respect to the matter. However, this amount may change if litigation expenses are incurred or a settlement is reached that are not covered by our corporate insurance policies. While no assurance can be given regarding the outcome of this matter because of the nature and inherent uncertainties of disputes, should the outcome of this matter be unfavorable, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

Valuation of long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, we do not amortize goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives. Our long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill are subject to annual impairment tests, which require us to estimate the fair value of our business compared to the carrying value. The impairment reviews require an analysis of future projections and assumptions about our operating performance. Should such review indicate the assets are impaired, we would record an expense for the impaired assets.

Annual tests or other future events could cause us to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that our goodwill is impaired. For example, if we had reason to believe that our recorded goodwill and intangible assets had become impaired due to decreases in the fair market value of the underlying business, we would have to take a charge to income for that portion of goodwill or intangible assets that we believed was impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations. At September 30, 2006, our goodwill balance was $70.3 million and our intangible assets with definite lives balance was $15.6 million, net of accumulated amortization.

Income Taxes

We provide for the effect of income taxes on our financial position and results of operations in accordance with SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this accounting pronouncement, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of income taxes payable or refundable for the current year and for the change in net deferred tax assets or liabilities resulting from events that are recorded for financial reporting purposes in a different reporting period than recorded in the tax return. Management must make significant assumptions, judgments and estimates to determine our current provision for income taxes and also our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance to be recorded against our net deferred tax asset. Our judgments, assumptions and estimates relative to the current provision for income tax take into account current tax laws, our interpretation of current tax laws,

Form 10-Q
Page 35 of 40

allowable deductions, projected tax credits and possible outcomes of current and future audits conducted by foreign and domestic tax authorities. Changes in tax law or our interpretation of tax laws and the resolution of current and future tax audits could significantly impact the amounts provided for income taxes in our financial position and results of operations. Our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to the value of our net deferred tax asset take into account predictions of the amount and category of future taxable income. Actual operating results and the underlying amount and category of income in future years could render our current assumptions, judgments and estimates of recoverable net deferred taxes inaccurate, thus materially impacting our financial position and results of operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Foreign Business

Our international business is subject to risks typical of an international business, including, but not limited to: differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility. Our international operations currently include business activity out of offices in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, Australia, Japan, China, Singapore and India. When the U.S. dollar strengthens against a foreign currency, the value of our sales and expenses in that currency converted to U.S. dollars decreases. When the U.S. dollar weakens, the value of our sales and expenses in that currency converted to U.S. dollars increases.

We recognized a foreign exchange rate gain of approximately $0.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and a foreign exchange rate loss of $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Foreign exchange rate transaction gains and losses are classified in “Other income, net” on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. A fluctuation of 10% in the period end exchange rates at September 30, 2006 relative to the U.S. dollar would result in approximately a $1.2 million change in the reported foreign currency loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Interest Rates

We invest our cash in a variety of financial instruments, including taxable and tax-advantaged floating rate and fixed rate obligations of corporations, municipalities, and local, state and national governmental entities and agencies. These investments are denominated in U.S. dollars. Cash balances in foreign currencies overseas are derived from operations.

We account for our investment instruments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” (“SFAS No. 115”). All of the cash equivalents and investments are treated as available-for-sale under SFAS No. 115.

Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates, or we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have seen a decline in market value due to changes in interest rates. The weighted-average interest rate on investment securities held at September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 was approximately 3.5% and 2.8%, respectively. The fair value of investments held at September 30, 2006 was approximately $108.4 million. Based on the average investments outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2006, an increase or

Form 10-Q
Page 36 of 40

decrease of 25 basis points would result in an increase or decrease to interest income of $0.1 million from the reported interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated, with the participation of management, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

During the third quarter of 2006, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Many of our installations involve products that are critical to the operations of our clients’ businesses. Any failure in our products could result in a claim for substantial damages against us, regardless of our responsibility for such failure. Although we attempt to limit contractually our liability for damages arising from product failures or negligent acts or omissions, there can be no assurance the limitations of liability set forth in our contracts will be enforceable in all instances.

We are in litigation with a large German customer regarding their delayed implementation of our warehouse management system. During the second quarter of 2005, we recorded a $2.8 million bad debt provision for the entire amount of the accounts receivable due from the large customer, as we considered collection to be doubtful. The $2.8 million bad debt provision is our best estimate of costs to be incurred with respect to the matter. However, this amount may change if litigation expenses are incurred or a settlement is reached that are not covered by our corporate insurance policies. While no assurance can be given regarding the outcome of this matter because of the nature and inherent uncertainties of disputes, should the outcome of this matter be unfavorable, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

We are also involved in litigation with one domestic customer regarding the implementation of our warehouse management system. We believe that any liability that may arise as a result of this proceeding will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. However, this may change if litigation expenses are incurred, a judgement is entered or a settlement is reached that are not covered by our corporate insurance policies.
