NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not contain all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of Openwave Systems Inc.’s (the “Company”) management (“Management”), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2005 and June 30, 2005, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004. The following information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results for the full fiscal year or any future period could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in fiscal 2005 as reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. We netted $8.0 million in accounts receivable for customers who are under the cash basis for revenue recognition as of June 30, 2005 against deferred revenue, which includes $0.6 million in long-term deferred revenue. We also reclassified $82.5 million and $78.0 million in auction rate securities from cash and cash equivalents to short-term investments as of September 30, 2004 and June 30, 2004, respectively, which decreased cash flows from investing activities by $4.5 million in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 2004.
Revenues previously reported separately as project/systems revenues in the condensed consolidated statement of operations have been combined with professional services revenues. Accordingly, cost of revenues previously reported separately as project/systems cost of revenues have been combined with professional services cost of revenues.
Revenue Recognition
There have been no material changes to our revenue recognition policy from the information provided in Note 1 to the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended June 30, 2005.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2004, the Company entered into a significant contract with Sprint Nextel (formerly Sprint) to provide a “managed service” software and system solution. Under the terms of the arrangement, the Company agreed to provide the following products and services in exchange for software custom modification and installation milestone payments, license fee payments and ongoing service payments: software; third-party software and hardware; maintenance and support and new version coverage; third-party maintenance and support and new version coverage; implementation services, including significant customization, modification and development of the software and third-party software; and ongoing managed services for the software system/solution. The software custom modification and installation milestone fees are due when certain progress milestones are achieved; the license fees are due within twelve months from final acceptance of the solution; and the ongoing service payments are due when services are performed. The software custom modification and installation fees are cancelable or refundable to the extent of approximately $15.7 million if the Company does not satisfy certain customer specified acceptance testing and the Company is subject to liquidated damage penalties if it fails to deliver against certain progress milestones. Through September 30, 2005, the Company has received $19.0 million in payments of which $2.5 million is refundable if the Company does not satisfy certain customer specified acceptance testing. As of September 30, 2005, the Company believed delivery against this acceptance testing is reasonably assured in the second quarter of fiscal year 2006 and that the customer will
6
satisfy their contractual obligations. Additionally, the Company believes that Sprint Nextel will not trigger material liquidated damage penalties or refundability provisions. Prospectively, if the Company determines that it will be unable to satisfy the acceptance testing or expects it will incur liquidated damages, a reduction in the total contract revenue will be accounted for in the period that the Company determines that it will not be able to satisfy the acceptance testing or it will incur liquidated damages. The Company determined that it had three units of accounting as defined in the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 00-21 which are as follows: post contract customer support, ongoing managed services, and a customized software, hardware and services arrangement. Amounts allocated to the post contract customer support and ongoing managed services will be recognized over a one-year contract term, commencing upon completion of the services arrangement. Sprint Nextel can renew both the non-third party post contract customer support and the ongoing managed services in year two and beyond for a stated renewal rate. Additionally, the Company determined it had evidence of fair value for third party post contract customer support. For the customized software, hardware and services arrangement, the Company was able to estimate the project completion status and thus recognized revenue using the proportional performance method assuming an estimated profit margin on the overall project. The Company uses labor hours incurred as a percentage of total estimated labor hours as its input measure for determining the proportional performance on the project. Accordingly, the Company recognized $6.4 million in revenue from this arrangement during the three months ended September 30, 2005, which was classified as professional services revenues in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The cumulative amount of revenue recognized on this arrangement since inception is $26.6 million. The corresponding costs of sales recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $3.7 million. The cumulative amount of cost of sales recognized on this arrangement since inception is $16.0 million. As of September 30, 2005, direct and incremental costs of $0.2 million on the arrangement incurred in excess of the percent complete were deferred and were classified within prepaid and other current assets.
Stock Based Compensation
(a) Change in Accounting Principle
Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123R. “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R”) using the modified prospective method, in which compensation cost was recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS 123R that remain unvested on the effective date.
As permitted under SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”), the Company elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”), and related interpretations in accounting for stock-based awards to employees through June 30, 2005. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options and nonvested stock grants was measured as the excess, if any, of the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant over the exercise price. The majority of stock-based compensation expense prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R related to nonvested stock grants which have an exercise price (typically $0.00) below market price, or to common stock issued to employees under retention agreements (refer to Note 5). The following table illustrates stock-based compensation recognized in the income statement by category of award (in thousands):
| | | | | | |

|
| |
|
|
Stock-based compensation recognized in the income statement | | $ | 10,204 | | $ | 594 |
| |
|
| |
|
|
With the adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company elected to amortize stock-based compensation for awards granted on or after the adoption of SFAS 123R on July 1, 2005 on a straight-line basis over the requisite service (vesting) period for the entire award. For awards granted prior to July 1, 2005, compensation costs are amortized in a manner consistent with Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 28, “Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or Award Plans.” This is the same manner applied in the pro forma disclosures under SFAS No. 123.
(b) Summary of Plans
As of September 30, 2005, the Company is authorized to issue up to 29,274,497 shares of common stock in connection with its 1995 Stock Plan (formerly the Software.com, Inc. 1995 Stock Option Plan) and its 1996 Stock Plan (formerly the Phone.com, Inc. 1996 Stock Plan) (collectively the “1995 and 1996 Stock Plans”) to directors, employees and consultants. Under the 1995
7
and 1996 Stock Plans, options generally expire ten years from the date of grant. Vesting periods are determined by the Board of Directors and generally provide for shares to vest ratably over a period of three to four years, with options for new employees generally including a one-year cliff period. On October 16, 2005, the 1995 Plan, which had 17,743,215 shares authorized, expired and options will no longer be granted from the 1995 Plan.
The Openwave Systems Inc. 1999 Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Directors’ Stock Plan”) provides for the grant of non-statutory stock options to non-employee directors (“Outside Directors”). Under the Directors’ Stock Plan, a total of 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock have been reserved for issuance. Initial options granted to a new Outside Directors under the Directors’ Stock Plan vest over a period of four years with 25% of the shares vesting one year from the date of grant and the remainder vesting monthly over the next three years. Options granted subsequent to the initial option grant to existing Outside Directors vest monthly over a period of four years. The Directors’ Stock Plan also provides for the acceleration of options upon the dismissal of the Outside Director from the Board upon or within twenty-four months following a change in control of the Company. The exercise price of options granted under the Directors’ Stock Plan is equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Under the Directors’ Stock Plan, options have a term of ten years.
The Openwave Systems Inc. 2001 Stock Compensation Plan (“2001 Stock Plan”) provides for the issuance of non-statutory stock options, nonvested stock bonus awards and nonvested stock purchase awards to directors, employees and consultants of the Company. The 2001 Stock Plan serves as the successor to certain plans of the Company and plans acquired by the Company. No further grants will be made under the predecessor plans, however, each outstanding option granted under a predecessor plan shall continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the predecessor plan under which it was granted. A total of 4,068,128 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance under the 2001 Stock Plan. Under the 2001 Stock Plan, the exercise price for nonstatutory options is determined by the plan administrator and may be above or below the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Options issued under the 2001 Stock Plan generally expire ten years from the date of grant. Vesting periods are determined by the plan administrator and generally provide for shares to vest ratably over a period of three to four years, with options for new employees generally including a one-year cliff period.
Certain outstanding stock purchase rights are subject to a nonvested stock purchase agreement whereby the Company has the right to repurchase the stock upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the purchaser’s employment with the Company at the purchaser’s exercise price. The Company’s repurchase right lapses at a rate determined by the stock plan administrator but at a minimum rate of 20% per year. Through September 30, 2005, the Company has issued 4,024,552 shares under nonvested stock purchase agreements, of which 554,485 shares have been repurchased and 1,584,848 shares remain subject to repurchase at a weighted-average purchase price of $0.00 per share.
(c) Summary of Assumptions and Activity
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, and other factors such as implied volatility of traded options and the conversion feature of the Company’s convertible debt. The expected term of options granted is derived from the average midpoint between vesting and the contractual term, as described in SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “Share-Based Payment.” The risk-free rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

As of September 30, 2005, there was $15.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements. That cost is expected to be recognized on a declining basis over the next 4 years. The total fair value of shares vested during the quarter ended September 30, 2005, was $1.1 million.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company accelerated the vesting of 77,780 share options held by the former CEO and director of the Company. As a result of that modification, the Company recognized additional compensation expense of $0.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2005.
As a result of adopting SFAS 123R on July 1, 2005, the Company’s loss before income taxes and net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2005, was $6.0 million lower than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB 25. Basic and diluted net loss per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 would have been $0.02 if the Company had not adopted SFAS 123R compared to reported basic and diluted loss per share of $0.11.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
On June 29, 2005, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the EITF on Issue No. 05-6, “Determining the Amortization Period for Leasehold Improvements” (“Issue 05-6”). Issue 05-6 provides that the amortization period used for leasehold improvements acquired in a business combination or purchased after the inception of a lease be the shorter of (a) the useful life of the assets or (b) a term that includes required lease periods and renewals that are reasonably assured upon the acquisition or the purchase. The provisions of Issue 05-6 are effective on a prospective basis for leasehold improvements purchased or acquired beginning in our first quarter of fiscal 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption of Issue 05-6 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
(2) Net Income (Loss) Per Share
In accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share,”basic net income (loss) per common share has been computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, less shares subject to repurchase.

(5) Acquisition
Acquisition of Magic4
On July 30, 2004, the Company acquired all of the outstanding issued share capital of Magic4, a leading provider of messaging software for mass-market mobile phones, for initial aggregate consideration of $72.0 million (the “Initial Consideration”). The Initial Consideration consists of the following: (i) the payment of cash consideration of $54.2 million, (ii) the issuance of 1,135,712 shares of the Company’s common stock with an aggregate value of $12.3 million, (iii) Loan Notes in the amount of $3.8 million, and (iv) transactions costs of $1.7 million, consisting primarily of professional fees incurred related to attorneys, accountants and valuation advisors and transfer taxes. The shares issued were valued at $12.3 million based upon 3-day weighted average closing price through the close date of the acquisition. As of September 30, 2005, the Company had paid all of the Initial Consideration. The Loan Notes and accrued interest were repaid on April 30, 2005.
In addition to the Initial Consideration, the Company agreed to additional contingent consideration consisting of 1,135,734 shares of the Company’s common stock with an aggregate value of $12.3 million, based on the fair value of the common stock at the closing date, to be issued to the former holders of share capital of Magic4 on a pro-rata basis (the “Contingent Consideration”). The Contingent Consideration is contingent upon the continued employment of certain key employees of Magic4 with the Company for specified periods extending through January 2006. These key employees were also holders of the share capital of Magic4. On January 31, 2005 and July 30, 2005, the Company issued the first and second installments of the contingent consideration comprising 113,570 and 454,273 shares of common stock to the former holders of the share capital of Magic4. The amount of the first and second installments issued to the key employees was 24,918 and 93,281 shares, respectively, resulting in stock-based compensation expense of $339,000 and $1.7 million in the quarters ended March 31 and September 30, 2005, respectively, based upon the fair value at the dates of issuance. The fair value of the remaining 88,652 and 360,992 shares issued to the non-employee shareholders in the first and second installments was $1.2 million and $6.7 million, respectively, and were recorded as additions to goodwill. The sum of Initial Consideration and Contingent Consideration, excluding consideration paid to the key employees discussed above, paid as of September 30, 2005 equals $79.9 million (“Consideration”).
As of September 30, 2005, the remaining 567,891 shares of common stock were held in escrow. The value of the contingently issuable shares of common stock will be remeasured upon the completion of the specified employment period through January 2006.
(6) Convertible Subordinated Notes
On September 9, 2003, the Company issued $150.0 million of 2 3/4% convertible subordinated notes (the “Notes”), due September 9, 2008. The Notes are recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet net of a $4.1 million discount, which is being amortized over the term of the Notes using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest rate method. Approximately $206,000 of the discount was amortized during each of the quarters ended September 30, 2005 and 2004. The notes are subordinated to all existing and future senior debt and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $18.396 per share, which is equates to approximately 8.2 million shares in aggregate. The Company may redeem some or all of the Notes for cash at any time on or after September 9, 2006, at a redemption price equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such notes to, but not including, the redemption date, if the closing price of the Company’s common stock has exceeded 150% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days within a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day before the mailing date of the optional redemption notice. Each holder may require the Company to purchase all or portion of such holder’s notes upon occurrence of specified change in control events. The Company incurred $900,000 of costs in connection with the issuance of the Notes, which were deferred and included in Deposits and other assets. The finance costs are being recognized as interest expense over the term of the notes using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest rate method. Approximately $45,000 of debt issuance costs has been amortized during each of the quarters ended September 30, 2005 and 2004. Interest on the Notes began accruing in September 2003 and is payable semi-annually in March and September. The Company used approximately $12.1 million of the net proceeds to purchase a portfolio of U.S. government securities that has been pledged to secure the payment of the first six scheduled semi-annual interest payments on the Notes. The Notes are otherwise unsecured obligations. At September 30, 2005 and June 30, 2005, the balance of the pledged securities was $4.1 million and $6.1 million, respectively, and was recorded as restricted cash and investments within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

(7) Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
IPO securities class action. On November 5, 2001, a purported securities fraud class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. In re Openwave Systems, Inc. (sic) Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, Civ. No. 01-9744 (SAS) (S.D.N.Y.), related to In re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, 21 MC 92 (SAS) (S.D.N.Y.). It is brought purportedly on behalf of all persons who purchased the Company’s common stock from June 11, 1999 through December 6, 2000. The defendants are the Company and five of the Company’s present or former officers (the “Openwave Defendants”), and several investment banking firms that served as underwriters of the Company’s initial public offering and secondary public offering. Three of the individual defendants were dismissed without prejudice, subject to an agreement extending the statute of limitations, through December 31, 2003. The complaint alleges liability as under Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, on the grounds that the registration statement for the offerings did not disclose that: (1) the underwriters had agreed to allow certain customers to purchase shares in the offerings in exchange for excess commissions paid to the underwriters; and (2) the underwriters had arranged for certain customers to purchase additional shares in the aftermarket at predetermined prices. The amended complaint also alleges that false analyst reports were issued. No specific damages are claimed. Similar allegations were made in over 300 lawsuits challenging public offerings conducted in 1999 and 2000, and the cases were consolidated for pretrial purposes.
The Company has accepted a settlement proposal presented to all issuer defendants. Plaintiffs will dismiss and release all claims against the Openwave Defendants, in exchange for a contingent payment by the insurance companies responsible for insuring the issuers, and for the assignment or surrender of control of certain claims the Company may have against the underwriters. The Openwave Defendants will not be required to make any cash payment in the settlement, unless the pro rata amount paid by the insurers in the settlement exceeds the amount of insurance coverage, a circumstance which the Company does not believe will occur. The settlement requires approval of the Court, which cannot be assured, after class members are given the opportunity to object to the settlement or opt out of the settlement. The Court has scheduled a hearing for April 24, 2006 to consider whether final approval should be granted. No amount is accrued as of September 30, 2005, as a loss is not considered probable or reasonably estimable.
Indemnifications. The Company’s software license and services agreements generally include a limited indemnification provision for claims from third-parties relating to the Company’s intellectual property. Such indemnification provisions are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies”. As of September 30, 2005, the Company has $750,000 accrued for potential settlements related to indemnification claims.
(8) Restructuring and Other Related Costs
As a result of the Company’s change in strategy and its desire to improve its cost structure, the Company announced five separate restructurings during the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005, 2003 and 2002. These restructurings included the fiscal year 2006 restructuring (FY 2006 Restructuring), the 2005 restructuring (FY2005 Restructuring), the 2003 fourth quarter restructuring (FY2003 Q4 Restructuring), the fiscal year 2003 first quarter restructuring (FY2003 Q1 Restructuring), and the fiscal year 2002 restructuring (FY2002 Restructuring).
During the quarter ended September 2005, the Company implemented the FY 2006 Restructuring to better distribute the Company’s resources among its client and server product groups. In addition, the Company incurred further facilities-related charges under the 2005 Restructuring as it ceased using information technology labs in the prior headquarters during the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Restructuring and related expense during the quarter ended September 30, 2005 totaled $8.3 million, which included $3.7 million in facilities-related charges, $4.2 million in severance and relocation costs, and $0.4 million in accelerated depreciation related to a revision in the estimated of useful life of leasehold improvements and furniture in the sites exited under the FY 2006 Restructuring. The accelerated depreciation was a non-cash charge and is not included in the restructuring liability table below. The associated restructuring expense for excess facilities was recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 2005 upon the “cease-use” dates in accordance with FAS 146 “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”.
The $907,000 charge during the quarter ended September 30, 2004 primarily related to the exercise of an early termination clause within a facility lease agreement.

(9) Gain on Sale of Technology
During the quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company sold certain intellectual property relating to a non-core product. The gain of $4.3 million relates to the sale proceeds of $5.0 million less the associated legal and professional fees totaling $0.7 million. The Company will continue to provide services to its customers who have purchased the product from the Company under a reseller agreement entered into with the buyer of the technology. In addition, contingent sale proceeds of $1.3 million shall be received by the Company on the later of September 12, 2006 or the date on which there are no unresolved indemnification claims. Such indemnification claims, if any, could reduce the amount of contingent consideration. To date there have been no such claims made.

Operating Environment During the Three Months Ended September 30, 2005
The market for open standards software products and services for the telecommunications industry is growing due to technological advances and increased demand for additional services and functionality in the mobile telephone market. We are benefiting from some key trends in our core markets:
In the mobile market in general, we are continuing to see mobile data and value-added services fuel growth in mobile service revenues, with Ovum predicting that service revenues will rise from 15% in 2005, to 21% of service revenues in 2008. Aside
18
from basic text messaging services (or SMS), rich messaging, information and entertainment applications are expected to drive much of the growth in data revenues. Additionally, mobile virtual network operators, a fast growing wireless market segment, is a key indicator of data services success, where brands such as Virgin and Boost are rapidly increasing the number of subscribers to their services by offering highly targeted and differentiated mobile experiences to their customer base.
In the client software area, we are experiencing demand for more technology and a more comprehensive systems integration offering. We are benefiting from the following trends in the client software market:
| • | | For the quarter ending September 30, 2005, we continue to provide over fifty of the world’s leading handset manufacturers and OEMs with the software to deliver the latest mobile messaging and content services, and we have announced that Sagem will take our full V7 phone suite for the launch of their first 3G Device. |
| • | | As our operator customers roll out differentiated data services across the world, our unique handset and server expertise is helping handset manufacturers including Siemens, Samsung and Motorola rapidly roll out handsets that support the sophisticated software requirements demanded by the telecom operator community. |
In the server software market, we have witnessed growth in broadband and Voice over IP and announced in August 2005 that one of the UK’s leading communications companies, has selected Openwave’s voice messaging solution as its new IP-based next generation voicemail system. In the messaging area, the anti-abuse and integrated messaging technologies continue to be an important issue for the industry, and we have extended our relationship with Cingular during the quarter ended September 30, 2005 to provide Openwave’s anti-abuse. We are benefiting from the following events and developments relating to our server software business:
| • | | In the quarter ended September 30, 2005, we signed a deal with Telus Mobility in Canada, an innovator in the wireless industry for them to deploy our Location Based Services software. We are seeing a renewed interest in location technology from our customers in multiple markets, particularly here in North America. |
| • | | Openwave Edge GX anti-abuse solution is now deployed in over 12 wireline and wireless operators worldwide including NTL, Nextel, BellSouth and Cox, delivering protection at the edge of the network for both inbound and outbound traffic. |
| • | | In the quarter ended September 30, 2005, we announced a three year managed services deal with Vodacom, South Africa’s leading mobile operator – expanding the strength of our EMEA operations and reinforcing Openwave’s global reach with customers ranging from China, to Australia, South Africa and the US. Under the terms of the agreement Openwave took over management and maintenance of the Openwave Mobile Access Gateway (MAG), Multimedia Messaging Services Center (MMSC) and Location Based Services platform in the Vodacom Network. |
Corporate Governance and Internal Controls
We have historically considered our policies and procedures relating to our corporate governance and internal controls over financial reporting a high priority and will continue to do so. We believe that our accounting practices are prudent and provide a fair presentation of our financial performance.
Our Disclosure Committee, comprised primarily of senior financial and legal personnel, helps our CEO and CFO monitor the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and assists them in providing oversight of the accuracy and timeliness of the Company’s financial reporting and disclosures.
Prior to the release of our financial results, representatives of our senior management team review our operating results, key accounting policies and estimates with our Audit Committee.
Critical Accounting Policies and Judgments
We believe that there are several accounting policies that are critical to understanding our business and prospects for our future performance, as these policies affect the reported amounts of revenue and other significant areas that involve management’s judgment and estimates. These significant accounting policies are:
| • | | Allowance for doubtful accounts |
| • | | Impairment assessment of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets |
19
| • | | Stock-based compensation |
| • | | Restructuring-related assessments |
These policies and our procedures related to these policies are described in detail below. For further discussion of our critical accounting policies and judgments, please refer to the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q and to our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005.
Revenue Recognition
We entered into certain significant contracts which involve significant judgment and estimates. Please refer to Note 1 in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Stock-based compensation
Effective July 1, 2005, we adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective method, in which compensation cost was recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS 123R that remain unvested on the effective date. SFAS 123 R requires the use of judgment and estimates in performing multiple calculations. We have estimated the expected volatility as an input into the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation formula when assessing the fair value of options granted. Our estimate of volatility was based upon the historical volatility experienced in our stock price. To the extent volatility of our stock price increases in the future, our estimates of the fair value of options granted in the future could increase, thereby increasing stock-based compensation expense in future periods. For instance, an estimate in volatility ten percentage points higher would have resulted in a $0.5 million increase in the fair value of options granted during the quarter ended September 30, 2005. In addition, we apply an expected forfeiture rate when amortizing our expense. Our estimate of the forfeiture rate was based primarily upon historical experience of employee turnover. To the extent we revise this estimate in the future, our stock-based compensation expense could be materially impacted in the quarter of revision, as well as in following quarters. An estimated forfeiture rate of one percentage point lower would have resulted in an change of less than $0.1 million in stock-based compensation expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Our expected term of options granted was derived from the average midpoint between vesting and the contractual term, as described in SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “Share-Based Payment.” In the future, as information regarding post vesting termination becomes more accessible, we may change our method of deriving the expected term. This change could impact our fair value of options granted in the future. We expect refine our method of deriving expected term no later than January 1, 2008.
Restructuring–related assessments
We make significant judgments in our assessment of our restructuring-related liabilities. Please refer to Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included with this Form 10-Q. As of September 30, 2005, we have assumed $35.5 million of sublease income from potential tenants that have not yet been identified. This assumed amount is netted from our total lease liability when estimating our net restructuring liability. Our sublease estimates are reviewed quarterly with third-party real-estate professionals. If estimates regarding future sublease income change further, we could be required to record additional restructuring costs.
Summary of Operating Results
Three Months Ended September 30, 2005 and 2004
Revenues
We generate three different types of revenues. License revenues are primarily associated with the licensing of our software products to communication service providers and wireless device manufacturers; maintenance and support revenues are derived from providing support services to communication service providers and wireless device manufacturers; professional services revenues are primarily a result of providing deployment and integration consulting services to communication service providers; and project/systems revenues are comprised of managed services, software and systems solutions which may include our software licenses, professional services and third-party software and hardware.
The majority of our revenues have been to a limited number of customers and our sales are concentrated in a single industry segment. Significant customers during the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 include Sprint Nextel. Sales to Sprint Nextel accounted for 24% and 21% of total revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. No other customers accounted for 10% or more of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

In the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, we saw an increase in revenues for all of our revenue types with a relatively consistent product mix.
License Revenues
The increase in license revenues of 28% during the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the same period of the prior year, was primarily due to an overall increase in license in both the client and server products, as demand has increased for mobile data, messaging, and broadband and Voice over IP technology has grown.
Maintenance and Support Services Revenues
Maintenance and support services revenues increased by 13% for the three months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase is attributable to the growth in software licenses that are under support contracts.
Professional Services Revenues
Professional services revenue increased by 27% for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. The increase was primarily attributed to an increase in the number of custom and extended solutions projects as well as an increase in services provided in relation to our product upgrades on our existing technology and other value-added services to our customers.
Other Key Financial Revenue Metrics
The other key financial revenue metrics reviewed by our CEO for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance include our disaggregated revenues by product groups. The disaggregated revenues by product group for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 were as follows (in thousands):

The increase in our server and client revenues are discussed above under “License Revenues”.
Cost of Revenues
Our total gross margin during the three months ended September 30, 2005 was 68% compared to 72% during the corresponding period of the prior year. The decrease in the gross margin was impacted by the change in our product mix within licenses, whereby license revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2004 contained an unusually low amount of third-party royalties. Additionally, we experienced a decrease in the professional services margins as discussed below. We expect our gross margins to fluctuate throughout the remainder of the current fiscal year depending on our product mix, but should be higher in absolute dollars due to the expensing of stock options related to the adoption of SFAS 123R as of July 1, 2005.

Total Gross Margin | | 68 | % | | 72 | % |
Cost of License Revenues
Cost of license revenues consists primarily of third-party license fees and amortization of developed technology, customer contract, and customer relationship intangible assets related to our acquisitions.
Costs of license revenues increased by $2.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. This increase was attributable to a $2.2 million increase in royalties to third parties and a $0.4 million increase in amortization of intangibles, relating to acquisitions occurring after June 30, 2004.
Cost of Maintenance and Support Services Revenues
Cost of maintenance and support services revenues consists of compensation and related overhead costs for personnel engaged in support services to wireless device manufacturers and communication service providers.
Cost of maintenance and support services increased by $1.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. The increase was primarily caused by an increase in resources needed to service the increased customer support revenue. As such, costs associated with personnel in maintenance support increased by $0.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to same period of the prior year. Additionally, due to the expensing of stock options related to the adoption of SFAS 123R in the quarter ended September 30, 2005 (see Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements), $0.4 million of stock-based compensation expense was recorded in cost of maintenance and support services.
22
Cost of Professional Services Revenues
Cost of professional services revenues consists of compensation and independent consultant costs for personnel engaged in performing professional services, hardware purchased for resale, and related overhead.
Professional services costs increased by $6.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in demand for our services which resulted in an average increase of 64 employees during the quarter, and associated costs of personnel of $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in headcount also drove allocated costs for information technology and facilities higher by $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Additionally, due to the expensing of stock options related to the adoption of SFAS 123R in the quarter ended September 30, 2005 (see Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements), $0.4 million of stock-based compensation expense was recorded in cost of professional services revenues. Gross margins related to professional services were higher in the quarter ended September 30, 2004 compared to the same period in 2005 due to a 57% margin on a systems project which generated $7.1 million in revenues and $3.1 million in associated costs of revenues once the Company determined that it had the fair value of all remaining undelivered elements.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased by $18.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. The majority of this increase was experienced in restructuring and other related costs, general and administrative expenses and sales and marketing expenses, as explained below.

Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consist principally of salary and benefit expenses for software developers, contracted development efforts, related facilities costs, and expenses associated with computer equipment used in software development. We believe that investments in research and development, including recruiting and hiring of software developers, are critical to remain competitive in the marketplace and directly relate to continued timely development of new and enhanced products. While we continue to focus our attention on research and development, we undertook initiatives during our restructuring efforts during the three months ended September 30, 2005 to redistribute some of our research and development work offshore as well as increase our use of outside consultants.
During the three months ended September 30, 2005, research and development costs increased $2.0 million compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to the adoption of SFAS 123R (see Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements), which resulted in an increase of $1.9 million of stock-based compensation expense recorded in research and development expenses in the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Research and development expenses decreased to 23% of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the same period of the prior year. This decrease as a percentage of revenues is a result of restructuring implemented during the quarter ended September 30, 2005 which consolidated certain engineering sites and reduced headcount.
23
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses include salary and benefit expenses, sales commissions, travel expenses, and related facility costs for our sales and marketing personnel, and amortization of customer relationship intangibles. Sales and marketing expenses also include the costs of trade shows, public relations, promotional materials, redeployed professional service employees and other market development programs.
During the three months ended September 30, 2005, sales and marketing costs increased by $6.5 million compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to the adoption of SFAS 123R (see Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements), which resulted in an increase of $4.4 million of stock-based compensation expense recorded in sales and marketing expenses in the quarter ended September 30, 2005. In addition, although headcount decreased by 7%, labor costs increased by $2.0 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2005 compared to the same period in the prior year, reflecting the increase in variable compensation in-line with the increase in bookings.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist principally of salary and benefit expenses, travel expenses, and facility costs for our finance, human resources, legal, information services and executive personnel. General and administrative expenses also include outside legal and accounting fees, provision for doubtful accounts, and expenses associated with computer equipment and software used in administration of the business.
During the three months ended September 30, 2005, general and administrative costs increased $7.1 million compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was attributable to the increase in labor expense of $2.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the same quarter in the prior year as a result of an 8% increase in headcount and a $1.0 million increase in bonus expense. Consulting fees to external firms increased by $2.1 million as a result of increased Sarbanes-Oxley compliance review costs and general consulting costs. In addition, the increase was attributable to the adoption of SFAS 123R (see Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements), which resulted in an increase of $2.5 million of stock-based compensation expense recorded in general and administrative expenses in the quarter ended September 30, 2005.
Restructuring and Other Related Costs
As a result of our change in strategy and its desire to improve its cost structure, we announced five separate restructurings during the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005, 2003 and 2002. These restructurings included the fiscal year 2006 restructuring (“FY 2006 Restructuring”), the 2005 restructuring (“FY2005 Restructuring”), the 2003 fourth quarter restructuring (“FY2003 Q4 Restructuring”), the fiscal year 2003 first quarter restructuring (“FY2003 Q1 Restructuring”), and the fiscal year 2002 restructuring (“FY2002 Restructuring”).
During the quarter ended September 30, 2005, we implemented the FY 2006 Restructuring to better align our resources among its client and server product groups. In addition, we incurred further facilities-related charges under the FY2005 Restructuring as we ceased using information technology in the prior headquarters during the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Restructuring and related expense during the quarter ended September 30, 2006 totaled $8.3 million, which included $3.7 million in facilities-related charges, $4.2 million in severance and relocation costs, and $0.4 million in accelerated depreciation related to a revision in the estimated of useful life of leasehold improvements and furniture in the sites exited under the FY2006 Restructuring. The associated restructuring expense for excess facilities was recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 2005 upon the “cease-use” dates in accordance with SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”
The $907,000 charge during the quarter ended September 30, 2004 primarily related to the exercise of an early termination clause within a facility lease agreement.
As of September 30, 2005, we estimated $40.1 million of sublease income from third parties on these facilities. Included in the $40.1 million estimate is $35.5 million of sublease income from potential tenants that have not yet been identified. Estimates of sublease income are netted from our total lease liability when estimating our net restructuring liability. If estimates regarding future sublease income change further, we could be required to record additional restructuring costs of up to $35.5 million. Refer to Note 8 in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.

Amortization of developed and core technology and customer contracts for licenses is included in cost of license revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The increase in amortization in fiscal year 2005 reflects the increase due to the acquisitions of Magic4 in late July 2004 and Cilys in January 2005.
Amortization of customer contracts for support is included in Cost of revenues—Maintenance and support services.
Amortization of acquired customer relationships, trademarks and workforce-in-place is included in operating expenses. The increase in amortization in fiscal year 2005 reflects the increase due to the acquisitions of Magic4 in late July 2004.
Gain on sale of technology
During the quarter ended September 30, 2005, we sold certain intellectual property relating to a non-core product. The gain relates to the $5.0 million in sale proceeds less the associated legal and professional fees totaling $0.7 million. We will continue to provide services to our customers who have purchased the product from us in the past under a reseller agreement entered into with the buyer of the technology. In addition, contingent sale proceeds of $1.3 million shall be received by the Company on the later of September 12, 2006 or the date on which there are no unresolved indemnification claims. Such indemnification claims, if any, could reduce the amount of contingent consideration. To date there have been no such claims made.
Interest Income
Interest income was approximately $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to $1.3 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. The increase in interest income is primarily due to higher interest rates earned on our investments.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was approximately $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $1.3 million for the same period of the prior year. The consistency in interest expense is expected as the majority of our interest relates to our convertible subordinated notes since issuance in September 2003.
25
Other Income (Expense), net
Other income (expense), net was approximately ($1.0) million during the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to ($0.2) million for the same period of the prior year. These amounts primarily related to foreign exchange gains and losses on foreign denominated assets and liabilities.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense consisted of foreign withholding tax and foreign corporate tax. Both foreign withholding tax and foreign corporate tax fluctuate quarterly based on the product and geographic mix of our revenue, with a resulting fluctuation in quarterly effective tax rate.
Income tax expense was $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $2.0 million for the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was primarily related to decreases in foreign corporate taxes and withholding taxes.
In light of our history of operating losses we recorded a valuation allowance for substantially all of our federal and state deferred tax assets, as we are presently unable to conclude that it is more likely than not that the federal and state deferred tax assets will be realized. As of September 30, 2005, we have deferred tax assets of approximately $2.4 million with respect to subsidiaries in Japan and the United Kingdom based upon our conclusion that it is more likely than not that the subsidiaries will earn future taxable profits enabling the realization of their respective deferred tax assets, given historical taxable income in those locations. We recorded a deferred tax liability of $9.3 million as part of the acquisition of Magic4 to reflect a future tax liability associated with amortization expense not deductible for tax purposes. This deferred tax liability will be amortized through income tax expense in proportion to the future Magic4 amortization expense. During the three months ended September 30, 2005 we amortized $0.4 million of the deferred tax liability. We recorded a deferred tax liability of approximately $1.7 million as part of the acquisition of Cilys Corporation to reflect a future tax liability associated with amortization expense not deductible for tax purposes. This deferred tax liability will be amortized through income tax expense in proportion to the future Cilys book amortization expense. During the three months ended September 30, 2005 we amortized $0.2 million of the deferred tax liability.
On October 22, 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act (the “AJCA”) was signed into law. The AJCA includes a deduction of 85% for certain foreign earnings that are repatriated, as defined in the AJCA. Based on our analysis of the AJCA and business needs to date, we do not expect to repatriate foreign earnings as a result of the AJCA.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating Lease Obligations, Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
Our restricted cash and investments decreased by approximately $2.1 during the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily attributable to reductions in the amount of pledged investments used to secure the payments of the first six scheduled semi-annual interest payments on our convertible subordinated debt, totaling approximately $2.1 million when the fourth payment was made during the quarter ended September 30, 2005.

We currently have subleased a portion of our unused facilities which will generate sublease income in aggregate of approximately $5.3 million through our fiscal year 2008.
In November 2004, we purchased developed and core technology from a private company. Included in the purchase price were contingent payments of $850,000, if specified milestones are satisfied. These milestones are primarily related to future revenues generated from the license of the developed and core technology and would be payable between 12 and 24 months from the signing of the purchase agreement.
On July 30, 2004, in connection with our acquisition of Magic4, in addition to the original consideration paid for the purchase, we agreed to additional contingent consideration consisting of 1,135,734 shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued upon the continued employment of certain key employees of Magic4 with the Company for certain specified periods. These certain employees were also holders of the share capital of Magic4. On January 31, 2005 and July 30, 2005, we issued the first and second installments of the contingent consideration comprising 113,570 and 454,273 shares of common stock to the former holders of the share capital of Magic4. The amount of the first and second installments issued to the key employees was 24,918 and 93,281 shares, respectively, resulting in stock-based compensation expense of $339,000 and $1.7 million in the quarters ended March 31 and September 30, 2005, respectively, based upon the value at the dates of issuance. The value of the remaining 88,652 and 360,992 shares issued in the first and second installments was $1.2 million and $6.7 million, respectively, and were recorded as additions to goodwill. As of September 30, 2005, 567,891 shares of common stock were held in escrow. The value of these contingently issuable shares of common stock will be remeasured upon the completion of the specified employment period through January 2006.

Cash used for investing activities | | $ | (9,118 | ) | | $ | (49,390 | ) |
Cash provided by financing activities | | $ | 14,239 | | | $ | 763 | |
We obtained a majority of our cash and investments prior to fiscal year 2004 through prior public offerings. We intend to use cash provided by such financing activities for general corporate purposes, including potential future acquisitions or other transactions. In addition, we received approximately $145.7 million from the issuance of our $150 million convertible subordinated notes during the year-ended June 30, 2004. While we believe that our current working capital and its anticipated cash flows from operations will be adequate to meet our cash needs for daily operations and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months, we may elect to raise additional capital through the sale of additional equity or debt securities, obtain a credit facility or sell certain assets. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of additional debt securities, these securities could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to holders of common stock, and the terms of any debt could impose restrictions on our operations. The sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities could result in additional dilution to our stockholders, and additional financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us. If additional financing is necessary and we are unable to obtain the additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned product development and marketing efforts, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. In the mean time, we will continue to manage our cash portfolios in a manner designed to ensure that we have adequate cash and cash equivalents to fund our operations as well as future acquisitions, if any.
Working Capital
Our working capital increased by approximately $20.0 million or 8% from June 30, 2005 to September 30, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to an $11.7 million increase in cash and short-term investments, and a $6.7 million increase in accounts receivable. The increase in cash was impacted by a net $4.3 million received on the sale of technology and $14.2 million in proceeds from stock option exercises during the quarter ended September 30, 2005.
Cash used for operating activities
We used $3.0 million for operating activities during the three months ended September 30, 2005, down $11.5 million from a use of $14.5 million in the corresponding period of the prior year. This improvement was primarily attributable to the change in working capital balances, whereby these changes resulted in a $29.4 million use of cash during the three months ended September 30, 2004 primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable during the same period. During the three months ended September 30, 2005, working capital changes only accounted for $6.9 million use of cash. These improvements were offset in part by a decrease of $11.0 million in cash from net income (loss) excluding non-cash items and the gain on the sale of technology during the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the same period in the prior year.
Cash used for investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $9.1 million, down from $49.4 million used in investing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2004. This change was primarily due to the $46.4 million spent on the acquisition of Magic4 during the prior period.
28
Cash flows provided by financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $13.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increase was reflective of the cash proceeds from the issuance of common stock for options exercised.
Risk Factors
You should carefully consider the following risks, as well as the other information contained in this quarterly report, before investing in our securities. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business could be harmed. You should refer to the other information set forth or referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or incorporated by reference in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2005, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes incorporated by reference herein.
We have a history of losses and we may not be able to maintain profitability.
Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, delays and difficulties frequently encountered by companies engaged in rapidly evolving technology markets like ours. Except for the quarters ending September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2004, we incurred losses since our inception, including losses of approximately $62.1 million and $29.9 million during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. As of September 30, 2005, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $2.6 billion, which includes approximately $2.0 billion of goodwill impairment and amortization. We currently have negative cash flows and expect to continue to spend significant amounts to develop, enhance or acquire products, services and technologies and to enhance sales and operational capabilities. We may not achieve profitability in accordance with our expectations, or if achieved, be able to maintain it at those levels or at all. Our business faces a number of challenges including:
| • | | our ability to upgrade, develop and maintain our products and effectively respond to the rapid technology change in wireless and broadband communications; |
| • | | our ability to anticipate and respond to the announcement or introduction of new or enhanced products or services by our competitors; |
| • | | the rate of growth, if any, in end-user purchases of data-enabled mobile phones, use of our products, and the growth of wireless data networks generally; |
| • | | the growth of mobile data usage by our customers’ subscribers; |
| • | | the volume of sales of our products and services by our strategic partners, distribution partners and resellers; and |
| • | | general economic market conditions and their effect on our operations and the operations of our customers. |
In addition, our customer base consists of a limited number of communication service providers and mobile device manufacturers. Our ability to achieve or maintain profitability depends in large part on our continued ability to introduce reliable and robust products that meet the demanding needs of these customers and their willingness to launch, maintain and market commercial services utilizing our products. As a result, our business strategy may not be successful, and we may not adequately address these challenges to achieve or maintain profitability.
Our operating results are subject to significant fluctuations, and this may cause our stock price to decline in future periods.
Our operating results have fluctuated in the past and may do so in the future. Our revenue, particularly our licensing revenue, is difficult to forecast and is likely to fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Factors that may lead to significant fluctuation in our operating results include, but are not limited to:
| • | | the introduction of new products or services or changes in pricing policies by us or our competitors; |
29
| • | | delays in development, launches, market acceptance or implementation by our customers of our products and services; |
| • | | changes in demand and purchasing patterns of our customers for our products and services and the lack of visibility into the timing of our customers’ purchasing decisions; |
| • | | our concentrated target market and the potentially substantial effect on total revenues that may result from the gain or loss of business from each incremental customer; and |
| • | | potential slowdowns or quality deficiencies in the introduction of new telecommunication networks or improved mobile phones. |
Our operating results could also be affected by disputes or litigation with other parties, general industry factors, including a slowdown in capital spending or growth in the telecommunications industry, either temporary or otherwise, and general political and economic factors, including an economic slowdown or recession, acts of terrorism or war, and health crises or disease outbreaks.
In addition, our operating results could be impacted by the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to our business and our ability to accurately estimate and control costs. Most of our expenses, such as compensation for current employees and lease payments for facilities and equipment, are relatively fixed. In addition, our expense levels are based, in part, on our expectations regarding future revenues. As a result, any shortfall in revenues relative to our expectations could cause significant changes in our operating results from period to period. Due to the foregoing factors, we believe period-to-period comparisons of our revenue levels and operating results may be of limited use and we may be unable to meet our internal projections or the projections of securities analysts and investors that follow us which could result in the trading price of our stock falling dramatically. These fluctuations may be exaggerated if the trading volume of our common stock is low.
We issued $150 million of convertible subordinated notes due September 2008, which we may not be able to repay in cash upon a change of control or at maturity and could result in dilution of our earnings per share.
In September 2003, we issued $150 million of 2 3/4% convertible subordinated notes due September 9, 2008. The notes are convertible into shares of our common stock at the option of the holder at any time on or prior to the business day prior to maturity. The notes are currently convertible at a conversion price of $18.396 per share, or 54.3596 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events. In addition, each holder may require us to purchase all or a portion of such holder’s notes upon the occurrence of specified change in control events. We may choose to pay the repurchase price of the notes in cash or shares of our common stock. We may not have enough cash on hand or have the ability to access sufficient cash to pay the notes in cash on a change of control or at maturity. The repurchase of our notes with shares of our common stock or the conversion of the notes into shares of our common stock may result in dilution of our earnings per share.
Our sales cycle is long and our stock price could decline if sales are delayed or cancelled.
Our sales cycle is lengthy, often between six months and twelve months, and unpredictable due to the lengthy education and customer approval process for our products, including internal reviews and capital expenditure approvals. Further, the emerging and evolving nature of the market for data services via mobile phones may lead prospective customers to postpone their purchasing decisions. Any delay in sales of our products could cause our operating results to vary significantly from projected results, which could cause the trading price of our stock to decline.
We depend substantially on the sale of international product licenses. A slow-down in international sales could harm our operating results.
International sale of product licenses and services accounted for approximately 56% and 58% of our total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Risks inherent in conducting business internationally include:
| • | | failure by us and/or third-parties to develop localized content and applications that are used with our products; |
| • | | fluctuations in currency exchange rates and any imposition of currency exchange controls; |
| • | | differing technology standards and pace of adoption; |
30
| • | | export restrictions on encryption and other technologies; and |
| • | | difficulties in collecting accounts receivable and longer collection periods. |
In addition, international sales could suffer due to unexpected changes in regulatory requirements applicable to the Internet or our business or differences in foreign laws and regulations, including foreign tax, intellectual property, labor and contract law. Any of these factors could harm our international operations and, consequently, our operating results.
We are exposed to the credit risk of some of our customers and to credit exposures in weakened markets which could result in write-offs in excess of amounts reserved for credit exposure.
Because the cost of developing new technology is high, there are many companies that are experiencing difficulties in obtaining the necessary financing to continue in business. A portion of our sales is derived through customers who tend to have access to more limited financial resources than others and, therefore, represent potential sources of increased credit risk. Although we have programs in place to monitor and mitigate the credit risk associated with our existing customers, there can be no assurance that such programs will be effective in reducing our credit risk. Future losses, if incurred, could harm our business and have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.
We may not be successful in obtaining complete license usage reports from our customers on a timely basis, which could impact our reported results.
Although our customers are contractually obligated to provide license usage reports, we are sometimes unable to obtain such reports in a timely manner. In addition, the reports may not completely reflect actual usage. We assist customers in complying with this obligation by providing a software measurement tool, installing the measurement tool whenever possible and customizing that tool where appropriate. The measurement tool, however, currently is not installed with all of our customers, does not measure the use of all of our products and has other limitations that we are continuing to attempt to address by refining the tool. In addition, we may be unable to install our measurement tool with all of our customers or we may be unable to overcome all of the limitations currently within the tool. The inability to obtain accurate license usage reports on all of our customers could have an adverse impact on the revenues that we realize and could, accordingly, negatively affect our financial performance.
We rely on estimates to determine arrangement fee revenue recognition for a particular reporting period. If our estimates change, future expected revenues could adversely change.
For certain fixed fee solutions-based arrangements, we apply the percentage of completion method to recognize revenue. Applying the percentage of completion method, we estimate progress on our professional services projects, which determines license and professional service revenues for a particular period. If, in a particular period, our estimates to project completion change and we estimate project overruns, revenue recognition for such projects in the period may be less than expected or even negative.
Certain arrangements have refundability and penalty provisions that, if triggered, could adversely impact future operating results.
In certain of our arrangements, customers have refundability rights and can invoke penalties should we not perform against certain contractual obligations. If these refundability provisions or penalty clauses are invoked, certain deferred revenues may not be recognizable as revenue, negative revenues may be recorded, and certain deferred charges and penalty expenses may be recognized as a reduction in revenue at such time.
We rely upon a small number of customers for a significant portion of our revenues, and the failure to retain these customers or add new customers may harm our business.
To date, a significant portion of our revenues in any particular period has been attributable to a limited number of customers, comprised primarily of communication service providers. Significant customers for the three months ended September 30, 2005 include Sprint Nextel. Revenue recognized from arrangements with Sprint Nextel accounted for approximately 24% of our total revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2005. This customer may not continue to generate significant revenues for us, and we may be unable to replace this customer with new ones on a timely basis or at all.
We believe that we will continue to rely upon a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our revenues for each period for the foreseeable future, and any failure by us to capture a significant share of these customers could materially harm our business. We believe that the telecommunications industry is entering a period of consolidation. To the extent that our customer base consolidates, we will have increased dependence on a few customers who may be able to exert increased pressure on our prices and contractual terms in general.

The market for our products and services is highly competitive. We may be unable to successfully compete which may decrease our market share and harm our operating results.
The market for our products and services is highly competitive. Many of our existing and potential competitors have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing and distribution resources than we have. Their greater financial resources have enabled, and may continue to enable, them to aggressively price, finance and bundle certain of their product offerings to attempt to gain market adoption or to increase market share. These activities have increased price pressure on us and increased the need for us to partner with larger resellers with broader product offerings and financing capabilities, which may negatively affect our market share and financial performance.
If our competitors offer deep discounts on certain products in an effort to gain market share or to sell other products or services, we may then need to lower prices, change our pricing models, or offer other favorable terms in order to compete successfully. Any such changes would be likely to reduce margins and could adversely affect operating results and constrain prices we can charge our customers in the future.
We expect that we will continue to compete primarily on the basis of quality, breadth of product and service offerings, functionality, price and time to market. Our current and potential competitors include the following:
| • | | wireless equipment manufacturers, such as Ericsson, Nokia, Nortel and Lucent; |
| • | | wireless messaging software providers, such as Comverse, Ericsson, and LogicaCMG; |
| • | | software providers, such as 7.24 Solutions, Critical Path, Intrado, and Verisign; |
| • | | service providers, such as E-Commerce Solutions; |
| • | | client technology competitors, such as Access, Qualcomm, Symbian, and Teleca; |
| • | | computer system companies such as Microsoft and Sun; |
| • | | providers of Internet software applications and content, electronic messaging applications and personal information management software solutions; and |
| • | | antispam and antivirus providers such as Ironport. |
Nokia also competes directly with us by offering WAP servers, client software and messaging (offering end-to-end solutions based on its proprietary smart messaging protocol and on MMS) to communication service providers. Nokia also markets its WAP server to corporate customers and content providers, which if successful, could undermine the need of communication service providers to provide their own WAP gateways (since these WAP servers access applications and services directly rather than through WAP gateways).
Qualcomm’s end-to-end proprietary system called “BREW”TM does not use our technology and offers wireless device manufacturers an alternative method for installing applications. Qualcomm’s strong market position in CDMA with its chipsets technology provides them with a position to build the BREW system with CDMA operators. If Qualcomm’s BREW system is widely adopted it could undermine the need for wireless device manufacturers to install our client software and reduce our ability to sell gateways and wireless applications to communication service providers.
Furthermore, the proliferation and evolution of operating system software in smartphones, a market segment backed by corporations with resources greater than ours, such as Microsoft and Nokia, may threaten the market position of our client software offerings as other software becomes more competitive in price.
32
Our technology depends on the adoption of standards such as those set forth by the Open Mobile Alliance (“OMA”). If such standards are not effectively established our business could suffer. Use of open industry standards, however, may also make us more vulnerable to competition.
We promote open standards in our technology in order to support open competition and interoperability. We aim to achieve this through working together with customers, suppliers and industry participants regarding standardization issues. Through open standards, specifications and interoperability, we hope that the mobile data market achieves enhanced interoperability. We do not exercise control over many aspects of the development of open standards. Our products are integrated with communication service providers’ systems and mobile phones. If we are unable to continue to successfully integrate our platform products with these third-party technologies, our business could suffer. In addition, large wireless operators sometimes create detailed service specifications and requirements, such as Vodafone Live or DoCoMo iMode, and such operators are not required to share those specifications with us. Failure or delay in the creation of open, global specifications could have an adverse effect on the mobile data market in general and a negative impact on our sales and operating results. In addition, a number of our competitors, including Nokia, have announced or are expected to announce enhanced features and functionality both as proprietary extensions to the WAP standard and in the area of messaging platforms. Moreover, infrastructure providers like Nokia and Ericsson may leverage installed technology and/or wireless device sales to sell end-to-end solutions.
The widespread adoption of open industry standards, however, may make it easier for new market entrants and existing competitors to introduce products that compete with our software products.
Our software products may contain defects or errors, which could result in rejection of our products, delays in shipment of our products, damage to our reputation, product liability and lost revenues.
The software we develop is complex and must meet the stringent technical requirements of our customers. We must develop our products quickly to keep pace with the rapidly changing Internet software and telecommunications markets. Software products and services as complex as ours are likely to contain undetected errors or defects, especially when first introduced or when new versions are released. We have in the past experienced delays in releasing some versions of our products until software problems were corrected. Our products may not be free from errors or defects after commercial shipments have begun, which could result in the rejection of our products and damage to our reputation, as well as lost revenues, diverted development resources and increased service and warranty costs, any of which could harm our business.
If mobile phones are not widely adopted for mobile delivery of data services or if new data services such as mobile messaging are not adopted widely our business could suffer materially.
We have focused a significant amount of our efforts on mass-market mobile phones as the principal means of delivery of data services using our products. If mobile phones are not widely adopted for mobile delivery of data services, our business could suffer materially. End-users currently use many competing products, such as portable computers, PDAs, and smart phones, to remotely access the Internet and email. These products generally are designed for the visual presentation of data, while, until recently, mobile phones historically have been limited in this regard. In addition, there can be no assurance that mobile phone or wireless device manufactures will produce enough mobile phones, meet delivery dates, or produce devices that work properly and are not subject to a high level of recalls. As well, there can be no assurance that consumers will purchase mobile phones or wireless devices that contain updated software and functionality that are compatible with our software. If end-users do not adopt mobile phones or other wireless devices containing our browser or client middleware platform as a means of accessing data services, our business could suffer materially.
Our success depends on continued acceptance of our products and services by communication service providers, their subscribers, and by wireless device manufacturers.
Our future success depends on our ability to increase revenues from sales of our software and services to communication service providers and other customers. In addition, many of these customers are large telecommunications companies who may be able to exert significant influence over our relationship with them. Furthermore, we are dependent upon our customers having growth in subscriber adoption for additional purchases as well as future versions of our products. Some of our customers have purchased license seats exceeding their current needs and may not have additional purchases, if any, until they utilize all of their current purchased licenses. Communication service providers and other partners may not widely deploy or successfully market services based on our products, and large numbers of subscribers might not use these services. The failure to do so could harm our operating results.
All of our agreements with wireless device manufacturers are nonexclusive, and therefore such manufacturers may choose to embed a browser other than ours in their mobile phones. We may not succeed in maintaining and developing relationships with wireless device manufacturers, and any arrangements may be terminated early or not renewed at expiration. In addition, wireless device manufacturers may not produce products using our browser in a timely manner, in sufficient quantities, or with sufficient quality, if at all.
33
The market for the delivery of Internet-based services is rapidly evolving, and we may not be able to adequately address this market.
The market for the delivery of Internet-based services is rapidly evolving. As a result, the life cycle of our products is difficult to estimate. We may not be able to develop and introduce new products, services and enhancements that respond to technological changes or evolving industry standards on a timely basis, in which case our business would suffer. In addition, we cannot predict the rate of adoption by wireless subscribers of these services or the price they will be willing to pay for these services. As a result, it is extremely difficult to predict the pricing of these services and the future size and growth rate of this market.
In addition to problems that may affect the Internet as a whole, our customers have in the past experienced some interruptions in providing their Internet-related services, including services related to our software products. We believe that these interruptions will continue to occur from time to time. Our revenues depend substantially upon the number of subscribers who use the services provided by our customers. Our business may suffer if our customers experience frequent or long system interruptions that result in the unavailability or reduced performance of their systems or networks or reduce their ability to provide services to their subscribers.
Our communication service provider customers face implementation and support challenges in introducing Internet-based services, which may slow their rate of adoption or implementation of the services our products enable. Historically, communication service providers have been relatively slow to implement new complex services such as data services. In addition, communication service providers may encounter greater customer service demands to support data services via mobile phones than they do for their traditional voice services. We have limited or no control over the pace at which communication service providers implement these new Internet-based services. The failure of communication service providers to introduce and support Internet-based services utilizing our products in a timely and effective manner could harm our business.
Our business depends on continued investment and improvement in communication networks and our customers’ ability to operate their systems effectively.
Many of our customers and other communication service providers have made major investments in third generation networks that are intended to support more complex applications and to provide end users with a more satisfying user experience. If communication service providers delay their deployment of networks or fail to roll such networks out successfully, there could be less demand for our products and services and our business could suffer.
We may not be successful in forming or maintaining strategic alliances with other companies, which could negatively affect our product offerings and sales, and could result in deterioration of our sales channels.
Our business depends in part on forming or maintaining strategic alliances with other companies, and we may not be able to form alliances that are important to ensure that our products are compatible with third-party products, to enable us to license our software to potential new customers and into potential new markets, and to enable us to continue to enter into new license agreements with our existing customers. There can be no assurance that we will identify the best alliances for our business or that we will be able to maintain existing relationships with other companies or enter into new alliances with other companies on acceptable terms or at all. If we cannot form and maintain significant strategic alliances with other companies as our target markets and technology evolves, the sales opportunities for our products could deteriorate and could have a material adverse effect on our business or financial results.
Our success depends in part on our ability to maintain and expand our distribution channels.
Our success depends in part on our ability to increase sales of our products and services through value-added resellers and systems integrators and to expand our indirect distribution channels. If we are unable to maintain the relationships that we have with our existing distribution partners, increase revenues derived from sales through our indirect distribution channels, or increase the number of distribution partners with whom we have relationships, then we may not be able to increase our revenues.
We expect that many communication service providers, especially in international markets, will require that our products and support services be supplied through value-added resellers and systems integrators. Thus, we expect that a significant portion of sales will be made through value-added resellers and systems integrators, and the success of our operations will depend on our ability to maintain productive relationships with them.
In addition, our agreements with our distribution partners generally do not restrict the sale by them of products and services that are competitive with our products and services, and each of our partners generally can cease marketing our products and services at their option and, in some circumstances, with little notice and with little or no penalty.
34
We may not be successful in our strategic investments, which could harm our operating results.
We have made, and in the future, we may continue to make strategic investments in other companies. These investments have been made in, and future investments will likely be made in, immature businesses with unproven track records and technologies. Such investments have a high degree of risk, with the possibility that we may lose the total amount of our investments. We may not be able to identify suitable investment candidates, and even if we do, we may not be able to make those investments on acceptable terms, or at all. Further, even if we make investments, we may not gain strategic benefits from those investments. In addition, in the future we may need to record impairment charges to strategic investments we have completed.
We may be unable to successfully integrate acquisitions of other businesses and technologies into our business or achieve the expected benefits of such acquisitions.
We have acquired a number of businesses and technologies in the past, and expect to continue to evaluate and consider potential strategic transactions, including acquisitions and dispositions of businesses, technologies, services, products and other assets. These transactions entail risks that may be material to our business and results of operations. For example, we may be unable to meet the revenue, synergies and other projections announced or anticipated in connection with our pending acquisition of Musiwave. We may elect to finance a significant portion of this acquisition with stock, which will result in dilution to our existing stockholders and may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock, or cash, which will decrease our cash resources unless we elect to raise capital with the issuance of additional stock, which similarly will result in dilution to our existing stockholders and may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.
In any event, the process of integrating any acquired business may create difficulties, including:
| • | | the inability to realize the anticipated benefits from such transactions, including projected revenue, synergies or other operating results as well as product integration, development and marketing; |
| • | | diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns; |
| • | | declining employee morale and retention issues from either our pre-existing or acquired business; |
| • | | the need to integrate each company’s accounting and other administrative systems to permit effective management; |
| • | | the impact of any negative customer relationships acquired; |
| • | | the need to implement necessary controls, procedures and policies at private companies which, prior to acquisition, lacked such controls, procedures and policies; |
| • | | the need to write-down the goodwill of any such transaction in subsequent periods; and |
| • | | significant transaction fees and expenses, including expenses for transactions that may not be consummated. |
Foreign acquisitions, including our pending acquisition of Musiwave, involve special risks, including those related to integration of operations across different cultures and languages, currency risks, and the particular economic, political, and regulatory risks associated with specific countries. In any event, as a result of future acquisitions, we might need to issue additional equity securities, spend our cash, or incur debt or assume significant liabilities, any of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
We depend on others to provide content and develop applications for mobile phones.
In order to increase the value to customers of our product platform and encourage subscriber demand for Internet-based services via mobile phones, we must successfully promote the development of Internet-based applications and content for this market. If content providers and application developers fail to create sufficient applications and content for Internet-based services via mobile phones, our business could suffer materially. Our success in motivating content providers and application developers to create and support content and applications that subscribers find useful and compelling will depend, in part, on our ability to develop a customer base of communication service providers and wireless device manufacturers large enough to justify significant and continued investments in these endeavors.
35
We depend on recruiting and retaining key management and technical personnel with telecommunications and Internet software experience which are integral in developing, marketing and selling our products.
Because of the technical nature of our products and the dynamic market in which we compete, our performance depends on attracting and retaining key employees. In particular, our future success depends in part on the continued services of many of our current executive officers and other key employees. Competition for qualified personnel in the telecommunications, Internet software and Internet messaging industries is significant. We believe that there are only a limited number of persons with the requisite skills to serve in many key positions, and it is difficult to hire and retain these persons. Furthermore it may become more difficult to hire and retain key persons as a result of our past restructuring, any future restructurings, and as a result our past stock performance. Competitors and others have in the past, and may in the future, attempt to recruit our employees.
Our restructuring of operations may not achieve the results we intend and may harm our business.
In October 2001, September 2002, June 2003 and August 2005, we initiated plans to streamline operations and reduce expenses, which included cuts in discretionary spending, reductions in capital expenditures, reductions in the work force and consolidation of certain office locations, as well as other steps to reduce expenses. In connection with the restructurings, we were required to make certain product and product development tradeoffs with limited information regarding the future demand for our various products. There can be no assurance that in connection with the restructurings we decided to pursue the correct product offerings to take advantage of future market opportunities. Furthermore, the implementation of our restructuring plans has placed, and may continue to place, a significant strain on our managerial, operational, financial, employee and other resources. Additionally, the restructurings may negatively affect our employee turnover as well as recruiting and retention of important employees. These reductions could impair our marketing, sales and customer support efforts or alter our product development plans. If we experience difficulties in carrying out the restructuring plans, our expenses could increase more quickly than we expect. If we find that our planned restructurings do not achieve our objectives, it may be necessary to implement further reduction of our expenses, to perform additional reductions in our headcount, or to undertake additional restructurings of our business. In addition, our restructuring may not result in anticipated cost-savings, which could harm our future operating results.
Our intellectual property could be misappropriated, which could force us to become involved in expensive and time-consuming litigation.
Our ability to compete and continue to provide technological innovation is substantially dependent upon internally-developed technology. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, and trade secret laws to protect our intellectual property or proprietary rights in such technology, although we believe that other factors such as the technological and creative skills of our personnel, new product developments, frequent product and feature enhancements and reliable product support and maintenance are more essential to maintaining a technology leadership position. We also rely on trademark law to protect the value of our corporate brand and reputation.
We generally enter into confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements with our employees, consultants, prospective customers, licensees and corporate partners. In addition, we control access to and distribution of our software, documentation and other proprietary information. Except for limited arrangements with our browser product and certain limited escrow arrangements with respect to some of our other products, we generally do not provide customers with access to the source code for our products. Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain and use our products, technology or trademarks. Effectively policing the unauthorized use of our products, technology and trademarks is time consuming and costly, and there can be no assurance that the steps taken by us will prevent infringement of our intellectual property or proprietary rights in our products, technology and trademarks, particularly in foreign countries where in many instances the local laws or legal systems do not offer the same level of protection as in the United States.
Third parties may claim that we infringe their intellectual property or other rights and we may be forced to engage in expensive and time-consuming litigation or take other actions that divert management’s attention and resources from developing our business.
We attempt to avoid infringing intellectual property rights of third-parties in the operation of our business. However, we do not regularly conduct comprehensive patent searches to determine whether the technology used in our products infringes patents held by third-parties. Because patent applications in certain jurisdictions, such as the United States, are not publicly disclosed until the patent is issued, applications may have been filed which relate to our products. In addition, our competitors and other companies as well as research and academic institutions have conducted research for many years in the electronic messaging field, and this research could lead to the filing of further patent applications. If we were to discover that our products violated or potentially violated third-party intellectual property rights, we might not be able to obtain licenses, in which case we might not be able to continue offering those products without substantial reengineering. Any reengineering effort may not be successful, nor can we be certain that any licenses would be available on commercially reasonable terms in which case we may need to stop marketing and licensing our products.
36
As the number of our products and services increases and their features and content continue to expand, and as we acquire the right to use technology through acquisitions or licenses, we may increasingly become subject to infringement and other types of claims by third parties. Our exposure to risks associated with the use of intellectual property may increase as a result of acquisitions, as we have a lower level of visibility into how such technology was developed or otherwise procured. Substantial litigation regarding intellectual property rights exists in the software industry, and we expect that software products may be increasingly subject to third-party infringement claims as the number of competitors in our industry segments grow and the functionality of software products in different industry segments overlaps. In addition, from time to time, we or our customers may become aware of certain third party patents that may relate to our products. If an infringement claim is asserted against us or against a customer for which we have an obligation to defend, it could be time consuming to defend, result in costly litigation, result in us paying a settlement amount or damage award, divert management’s attention and resources, cause product and service delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Any royalty or licensing arrangements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. A successful claim of infringement against our technology could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The security provided by our products could be breached, in which case our reputation, business, financial condition and operating results could suffer.
The occurrence or perception of security breaches could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. A fundamental requirement for online communications is the secure transmission of confidential information over the Internet. Third-parties may attempt to breach the security provided by our products, or the security of our customers’ internal systems. If they are successful, they could obtain confidential information about our customers’ end users, including their passwords, financial account information, credit card numbers or other personal information. Our customers or their end users may file suits against us for any breach in security, which could result in costly litigation or harm our reputation. The perception of security risks, whether or not valid, could inhibit market acceptance of our products. Despite our implementation of security measures, our software is vulnerable to computer viruses, electronic break-ins, intentional overloading of servers and other sabotage, and similar disruptions, which could lead to interruptions, delays, or loss of data.
Our stock price may be volatile, exposing us to expensive and time-consuming securities class action litigation.
The stock market in general, and the stock prices of companies in our industry in particular, have experienced extreme volatility, which has often been unrelated to the operating performance of any particular company or companies. If market or industry-based fluctuations continue, our stock price could decline below current levels regardless of our actual operating performance. Therefore, if a large number of shares of our stock are sold in a short period of time, our stock price will decline. In the past, securities class action litigation has sometimes been brought against companies following periods of volatility in their stock prices. We have in the past and may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our Management’s time and resources, which could harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.
Provisions of our corporate documents may have anti-takeover effects that could prevent a change in control.
Provisions of our charter, bylaws, stockholder rights plan and Delaware law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders. These provisions include authorizing the issuance of preferred stock without stockholder approval, prohibiting cumulative voting in the election of directors, prohibiting the stockholders from calling stockholders meetings, and prohibiting stockholder actions by written consent, among others.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
(a) Foreign Currency Risk
We operate internationally and are exposed to potentially adverse movements in foreign currency rate changes. We have entered into foreign exchange derivative instruments to reduce our exposure to foreign currency rate changes on receivables, payables and intercompany balances denominated in a nonfunctional currency. The objective of these derivatives is to neutralize the impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements on our operating results. These derivatives may require us to exchange currencies at rates agreed upon at the inception of the contracts. These contracts reduce the exposure to fluctuations in exchange rate movements because the gains and losses associated with foreign currency balances and transactions are generally offset with the gains and losses of the foreign exchange forward contracts. We do not enter into foreign exchange transactions for trading or speculative purposes, nor do we hedge foreign currency exposures in a manner that entirely offsets the effects of movement in exchange rates. We do not designate our foreign exchange forward contracts as hedges and, accordingly, we adjust these instruments to fair value through earnings in the period of change in their fair value. Net foreign exchange transaction losses included in “Other expense, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations totaled $1.0 million and
37
$0.2 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. As of September 30, 2005, we have the following forward contracts (in $000’s):

(b) Interest Rate Risk
As of September 30, 2005, we had cash and cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments, and restricted cash and investments of $299.0 million. Our exposure to market risks for changes in interest rates relates primarily to corporate debt securities, U.S. Treasury Notes and certificates of deposit. We place our investments with high credit quality issuers that have a rating by Moody’s of A1 or higher and Standard & Poors of P-1 or higher, and, by policy, limit the amount of the credit exposure to any one issuer. Our general policy is to limit the risk of principal loss and ensure the safety of invested funds by limiting market and credit risk. All highly liquid investments with a maturity of less than three months at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents; all investments with maturities of three months or greater are classified as available-for-sale and considered to be short-term investments; all investments with maturities of greater than one year and less than two years are classified as available-for-sale and considered to be long-term investments. We do not purchase investments with a maturity date greater than two years from the date of purchase.
The following is a chart of the principal amounts of short-term investments and long-term investments by expected maturity at September 30, 2005:

Additionally, the Company had $22.2 million of restricted investments that were included within restricted cash and investments on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2005. $17.3 million of the restricted investments comprised a certificate of deposit to collateralized letters of credit for facility leases. $4.1 million of the balance comprises U.S. government securities pledged for payment of the remaining three semi-annual interest payments due under the terms of the convertible subordinated notes indenture. The remaining balance of $0.8 million comprises a restricted investment to secure a warranty bond pursuant to a customer contract. The weighted average interest rate on our restricted investments was 1.9% at September 30, 2005.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). We believe that there are always limitations on the effectiveness of any control system, no matter how well conceived and operated. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, however a control system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are being met. Based on the evaluation performed, the CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are: (1) effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and; (2) effective, at the reasonable assurance level, in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting on a timely basis information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act.
(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
IPO securities class action.
On November 5, 2001, a purported securities fraud class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. In re Openwave Systems, Inc. (sic) Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, Civ. No. 01-9744 (SAS) (S.D.N.Y.), related to In re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, 21 MC 92 (SAS) (S.D.N.Y.). It is brought purportedly on behalf of all persons who purchased the Company’s common stock from June 11, 1999 through December 6, 2000. The defendants are the Company and five of the Company’s present or former officers (the “Openwave Defendants”), and several investment banking firms that served as underwriters of the Company’s initial public offering and secondary public offering. Three of the individual defendants were dismissed without prejudice, subject to an agreement extending the statute of limitations, through December 31, 2003. The complaint alleges liability as under Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, on the grounds that the registration statement for the offerings did not disclose that: (1) the underwriters had agreed to allow certain customers to purchase shares in the offerings in exchange for excess commissions paid to the underwriters; and (2) the underwriters had arranged for certain customers to purchase additional shares in the aftermarket at predetermined prices. The amended complaint also alleges that false analyst reports were issued. No specific damages are claimed. Similar allegations were made in over 300 lawsuits challenging public offerings conducted in 1999 and 2000, and the cases were consolidated for pretrial purposes.
The Company has accepted a settlement proposal presented to all issuer defendants. Plaintiffs will dismiss and release all claims against the Openwave Defendants, in exchange for a contingent payment by the insurance companies responsible for insuring the issuers, and for the assignment or surrender of control of certain claims the Company may have against the underwriters. The Openwave Defendants will not be required to make any cash payment in the settlement, unless the pro rata amount paid by the insurers in the settlement exceeds the amount of insurance coverage, a circumstance which the Company does not believe will occur. The settlement will require approval of the Court, which cannot be assured, after class members are given the opportunity to object to the settlement or opt out of the settlement.
