NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
— UNAUDITED —
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rainmaker Systems, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Rainmaker”, “we”, “our” or “the Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The interim financial statements are unaudited but reflect all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the results of these periods.
The results of our operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2007, or any other period. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Rainmaker’s financial statements and notes thereto included in Rainmaker’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, and the financial statements and notes thereto included in Rainmaker’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. Balance sheet information as of December 31, 2006 has been derived from the audited financial statements for the year then ended.
Certain amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements for 2006 have been reclassified to conform to the 2007 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations, total assets or accumulated deficit.
2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Business
We are a leading provider of sales and marketing solutions, combining hosted application software and execution services designed to drive more revenue for our clients. Our core services include the following: service contract sales and renewals, software license sales, subscription renewals and warranty extension sales; lead generation, qualification and management; and hosted application software for training sales.
We operate in one business as determined by revenue generated from sales and marketing solutions. Our operations are principally conducted within the United States of America where we perform services on behalf of our clients to customers who are almost entirely located in North America. We have contracted with third parties on behalf of our clients to perform marketing services in Europe and Asia.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rainmaker Systems, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our estimates are based on historical experience, input from sources outside of the company, and other relevant facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Accounting policies that include particularly significant estimates are revenue recognition and presentation policies, valuation of accounts receivable, measurement of our deferred tax asset and the corresponding valuation allowance, allocation of purchase price in business combinations, fair value estimates for the expense of employee stock options and the assessment of recoverability and measuring impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and fixed assets.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents generally consist of money market funds and certificates of deposit. The fair market value of cash equivalents represents the quoted market prices at the balance sheet dates and approximates their carrying value.
6
Included in cash and cash equivalents is $1.25 million of unrestricted cash which must be maintained on deposit with a lending institution as required under the loan agreement with the lender.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our clients’ customers to make required payments of amounts due to us. The allowance is comprised of specifically identified account balances for which collection is currently deemed doubtful. In addition to specifically identified accounts, estimates of amounts that may not be collectible from those accounts whose collection is not yet deemed doubtful but which may become doubtful in the future are made based on historical bad debt write-off experience. If the financial condition of our client’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, our allowance for potentially uncollectible accounts was $226,000 and $233,000, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is recorded using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives. Computer equipment and capitalized software are depreciated over two to five years and furniture and fixtures are depreciated over five years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is recorded using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Amortization of fixed assets under capital leases is included in depreciation expense.
Costs of internal use software are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Position 98-1 (SOP 98-1),Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use, and Emerging Issue Task Force Issue No. 00-02 (EITF 00-02),Accounting for Website Development Costs. SOP 98-1 and EITF 00-02 require that we expense computer software and website development costs as they are incurred during the preliminary project stage. Once the capitalization criteria of SOP 98-1 and EITF 00-02 have been met, external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining internal-use software, including website development, the payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to the internal use computer software and associated interest costs are capitalized. Capitalized costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the term of related client agreement, if such development relates to a specific outsource client, or the software’s estimated useful life, ranging from two to five years. Capitalized internal use software and website development costs are included in property and equipment in the accompanying balance sheets.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
We apply the guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 141,Business Combinations in accounting for the assets related to our acquisitions. Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition purchase price over the estimated fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. In our analysis of goodwill and other intangible assets we apply the guidance of FASB Statement No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets in determining whether any impairment conditions exist. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. Intangible assets are attributable to the various technologies, customer relationships and tradenames of the businesses we have acquired. To date, no circumstances or indicators have arisen to indicate that the carrying value has been impaired.
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets including our purchased intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. In accordance with FASB No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets, long-lived assets, such as property, equipment, and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.

Revenue Recognition and Presentation
Substantially all of our revenue is generated from the sale of service contracts and maintenance renewals, lead development services and software subscriptions for hosted Internet sales of web based training. We recognize revenue from the sale of our clients service contracts and maintenance renewals under the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 104,Revenue Recognition and on the “net basis” in accordance with EITF Issue No. 99-19,Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent. Revenue from the sale of service contracts and maintenance renewals is recognized when a purchase order from a client’s customer is received; the service contract or maintenance agreement is delivered; the fee is fixed or determinable; the collection of the receivable is reasonably assured; and no significant post-delivery obligations remain unfulfilled. Revenue from lead development services we perform is recognized as the services are accepted and is generally earned ratably over the service contract period. Some of our lead development service revenue is earned when we achieve certain attainment levels and is recognized upon customer acceptance of the service. We earn revenue from our software application subscriptions of hosted online sales of web based training ratably over each contract period, having considered EITF 00-03:Application of AICPA SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, to Arrangements that Include the Right to Use Software Stored on Another Entity’s Hardware, which distinguishes hosting services that might fall under the scope of SOP 97-2:Software Revenue Recognition. Since these software subscriptions are usually paid in advance, we have recorded a deferred revenue liability on our balance sheet that represents the prepaid portions of subscriptions that will be earned over the next one to two years. We generally do not enter into multiple-element revenue arrangements with our clients.
Our revenue recognition policy involves significant judgments and estimates about collectibility. We assess the probability of collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction history and/or the creditworthiness of our clients’ customers, which is based on current published credit ratings, current events and circumstances regarding the business of our clients’ customer and other factors that we believe are relevant. If we determine that collection is not reasonably assured, we defer revenue recognition until such time as collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash payment.
In addition we provide an allowance in accrued liabilities for the cancellation of service contracts that occurs within a specified time after the sale, which is typically less than 30 days. This amount is calculated based on historical results and constitutes a reduction of the net revenue we record for the commission we earn on the sale.
Costs of Services
Costs of services consist of costs associated with promoting and selling our clients’ products and services including compensation costs of sales personnel, sales commissions and bonuses, costs of designing, producing and delivering marketing services, and salaries and other personnel expenses related to fee-based activities. Costs of services also include the cost of allocated facility and telephone usage for our telesales representatives as well as other direct costs associated with the delivery of our services. Most of the costs are personnel related and are relatively fixed. Bonuses and sales commissions will typically change in proportion to revenue or profitability.
Advertising
We expense advertising costs as incurred. These costs were not material and are included in sales and marketing expense.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes using the liability method in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS 109). SFAS 109 requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements, but have not been reflected in our taxable income. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value. Therefore, we provide a valuation allowance to the extent that we do not believe it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient taxable income in future periods to realize the benefit of our deferred tax assets. Accordingly, our deferred tax asset is subject to a 100% valuation allowance and therefore is not recorded on our balance sheet as an asset. Realization of our deferred tax asset is limited and we may not be able to fully utilize our deferred tax asset to reduce our tax rates. In the six months ended June 30, 2007, we utilized some of our deferred tax asset to reduce our tax expense. Due to operating losses in previous years, we will maintain a 100% valuation allowance on our deferred tax asset until a sustained pattern of operating profits can be established.
8
Stock-Based Compensation
We report stock-based compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004),Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123(R)) which establishes standards for the accounting of transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, primarily focusing on accounting for transactions where an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. Accordingly, we value the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest and recognize the expense over service periods associated with the vesting of each award in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Concentrations of Credit Risk and Credit Evaluations
Our financial instruments that expose us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable.
We place our cash and cash equivalents in a variety of financial institutions and limit the amount of credit exposure through diversification and by investing the funds in money market accounts and certificates of deposit which are insured by the FDIC. At times, the balance of cash deposits is in excess of the FDIC insurance limits.
We sell our clients’ products and services primarily to business end users and, in most transactions, assume full credit risk on the sale. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the financial condition of our client’s customer, and collateral is generally not required. Credit losses have traditionally been immaterial, and such losses have been within management’s expectations.
We have generated a significant portion of our revenue from sales to customers of a limited number of clients. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, two clients, Dell and Hewlett-Packard accounted for more than 10% of our net revenue and collectively represented 42% and 45% of our net revenue for the respective periods. Dell represented 29% and 32%, respectively, of our net revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and Hewlett-Packard represented 13% and 13% of our net revenue, respectively, for the same periods. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, these same two clients accounted for more than 10% of our revenue and collectively represented 49% and 49% of our net revenue for the respective periods, with Dell representing 39% and 38% of our net revenue and Hewlett-Packard representing 10% and 11% of our net revenue for the respective periods.
No individual client’s end-user customer accounted for 10% or more of our revenues in any period presented.
We have outsourced services agreements with our clients that expire at various dates ranging through April 2009. Many of our client agreements contain automatic renewal clauses. These clients may, however, terminate their contracts for cause or convenience in accordance with the provisions of each contract. In most cases, a client must provide us with advance written notice of its intention to terminate. Any loss of a single significant client may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, cash flows and results of operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The amounts reported as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.
The fair value of short-term and long-term capital lease and debt obligations is estimated based on current interest rates available to us for debt instruments with similar terms, degrees of risk and remaining maturities. The carrying values of these obligations, as of each period presented, approximate their respective fair values.
Segment Reporting
We report segment results in accordance with SFAS No. 131,Segment Reporting (SFAS 131). Under SFAS 131, reportable segments represent an aggregation of operating segments that meet certain criteria for aggregation specified in SFAS 131.
Our three primary business units, service sales, lead development and hosted application software licensing have been aggregated into one reportable segment. The aggregation of operating segments is based on management by the chief operating decision-maker for the segment as well as similarities of products, production processes, and economic characteristics. We primarily operate in one geographical segment, North America. Substantially all of our sales are made to our clients’ customers in the United States.

Related Party Transactions
We have made purchases of computer equipment and services from several vendors including Dell and Hewlett-Packard, our two largest clients. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, we purchased equipment from Dell totaling $75,000 and $111,000, respectively, and from Hewlett-Packard totaling $0 and $22,000, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, we purchased equipment from Dell totaling $64,000 and $195,000, respectively.
The Chairman of our board of directors also serves on the board of Saama Technologies, a technology services firm. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, we paid Saama Technologies $149,000 and $207,000, respectively, for technology services. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, we paid Saama Technologies $17,000 and $37,000, respectively. We may continue to utilize their services and may expand the scope of Saama Technologies’ engagement in the future.

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition of tax benefits, classification on the balance sheet, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007. We file income tax returns in the federal jurisdiction, certain states and Canada. We believe that our income tax positions would be sustained upon examination by appropriate taxing authorities based on the technical merits of such positions, and therefore have not provided for any unrecognized tax benefits at the adoption date. In general, we remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service beginning with our 2003 tax year, major state income tax jurisdictions beginning with our 2002 tax year, and Canada beginning with our 2007 tax year.
Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income before taxes. Penalties, interest paid and interest received are recorded in interest and other income (expense), net, in the statement of operations. Interest and penalties were immaterial through the date of adoption of FIN 48.
In June 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on the income statement presentation of various types of taxes. The new guidance, Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 06-3“How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is, Gross versus Net Presentation)”(“EITF 06-03”) applies to any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is directly imposed on a revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer and may include, but is not limited to, sales, use, value added, and some excise taxes. The presentation of taxes within the scope of this issue on either a gross (included in revenues and costs) or a net (excluded from revenues) basis is an accounting policy decision that should be disclosed pursuant to APB Opinion No. 22,“Disclosure of Accounting Policies.”The EITF’s decision on gross versus net presentation requires that any such taxes reported on a gross basis be disclosed on an aggregate basis in interim and annual financial statements, for each period for which an income statement is presented, if those amounts are significant. The Company adopted EITF 06-03 effective January 1, 2007. The Company reports revenues net of taxes within the scope of EITF 06-03 and, accordingly, adoption of this issue had no effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 replaces the different definitions of fair value in the accounting literature with a single definition. It defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS 157 is effective for fair-value measurements already required or permitted by other standards for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. We anticipate that adopting the provisions of SFAS 157 will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 allows entities the option to measure eligible financial instruments at fair value as of specified dates. Such election, which may be applied on an instrument by instrument basis, is typically irrevocable once elected. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and early application is allowed under certain circumstances. We have not yet determined the impact this statement will have on our financial position or results of operations.

Basic net income per common share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share also gives effect, as applicable, to the potential dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible securities, using the if converted method, as of the beginning of the period presented or the original issuance date, if later.
The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income per common share (in thousands, except per share data):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

CAS Systems Asset Purchase
On January 25, 2007, we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Rainmaker Systems (Canada) Inc., a Canadian federal corporation, simultaneously entered into and closed two Asset Purchase Agreements (the Purchase Agreements) with CAS Systems, Inc., a California corporation, 3079028 Nova Scotia Company, its wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary (collectively “CAS”) and Barry Hanson, as representative of the shareholders of CAS. The results of CAS’s operations have been included in our consolidated financial statements since that date. CAS increases the scale of our growing lead development operations by adding management strength, multiple locations, and an established international presence in Canada. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreements, in exchange for substantially all of the assets of CAS and its Canadian subsidiary, Rainmaker paid a total of $2 million at closing, and will pay an additional $2 million over three years plus interest at a fixed rate of 5.36% per annum. The Purchase Agreements also provide for a potential additional payment of $1 million contingent on attaining certain performance metrics at the end of the 12 months following the acquisition, subject to adjustment. This $1 million of contingent consideration will be recorded as additional purchase price if and when its payment is determinable beyond a reasonable doubt.
Our acquisition of CAS has been accounted for as a business combination. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed from CAS were recorded at their estimated fair values as of January 25, 2007. The total purchase price was $4.2 million as follows:
| | | |
| | (in thousands) |
Cash payment for acquisition of CAS | | $ | 2,000 |
Notes Payable for acquisition of CAS | | | 2,000 |
Acquisition related transaction costs | | | 206 |
| | | |
Total purchase price | | $ | 4,206 |
| | | |
11
Using the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price was allocated to CAS’s net tangible and identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets was recorded as goodwill, which will be amortized over 15 years for tax purposes. Using the estimated future discounted cash flows from the assets acquired, management performed a valuation and the total purchase price was allocated as follows:
| | | | |
| | (in thousands) | |
Cash | | $ | 490 | |
Identified tangible assets | | | 1,387 | |
Developed technology | | | 100 | |
Customer relationships | | | 1,100 | |
Goodwill | | | 1,619 | |
Liabilities assumed | | | (320 | ) |
Deferred revenue assumed (1) | | | (170 | ) |
| | | | |
Total purchase price allocation | | $ | 4,206 | |
| | | | |
(1) | In accordance with EITF 01-03, “Accounting in a Business Combination of Deferred Revenue of an Acquiree”, we have reduced the carrying value of the deferred revenue by 13.6%, which represents the reduction from carrying value to fair value for the legal performance obligation assumed from CAS. |
Amortization of the intangible assets is calculated using an accelerated method for customer relationships that is based on the estimated future cash flows for the relationship, and the straight-line method for the developed technology. The estimated useful life of the amortizable intangible assets acquired is four years for customer relationships and two years for the developed technology. For developed technology and customer relations, we estimated the cash flows associated with the excess earnings the technology and contacts would generate and allocated the present value of those earnings to the asset. We used a discount rate of 23.5%.
ViewCentral Asset Purchase
On September 15, 2006, we closed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with ViewCentral, Inc., a California corporation (ViewCentral), and Dan Tompkins as representative of certain shareholders of ViewCentral. The results of ViewCentral’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since that date. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Rainmaker issued 754,968 shares of common stock representing approximately 5.5% of Rainmaker’s 13,845,000 common shares outstanding as of August 31, 2006 and assumed certain liabilities of ViewCentral under its customer contracts, purchase orders and office lease in exchange for substantially all of ViewCentral’s assets. In connection with the acquisition, ViewCentral’s employees became employees of Rainmaker. In connection with their employment, Rainmaker awarded a total of 28,976 shares of restricted stock of Rainmaker that will be earned by each employee over one or two years of continued employment. See Note 9 for further discussion of the restricted stock awarded to the former ViewCentral employees. The estimated value of the 754,968 shares issued was $4.4 million computed at a share price of $5.88 which is the average closing price for the period from September 15, 2006 through September 21, 2006.
Our acquisition of ViewCentral has been accounted for as a business combination. Assets acquired and deferred revenue assumed from ViewCentral were recorded at their estimated fair values as of September 15, 2006. The total purchase price was $4.6 million as follows:
| | | |
| | (in thousands) |
Issuance of 754,968 shares of Rainmaker common stock | | $ | 4,439 |
Acquisition related transaction costs | | | 182 |
| | | |
Total purchase price | | $ | 4,621 |
| | | |
12
Using the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price was allocated to ViewCentral’s net tangible and identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets was recorded as goodwill, which will be amortized over 15 years for tax purposes. Using the estimated future discounted cash flows from the assets acquired, management performed a valuation and the total purchase price was allocated as follows:
| | | | |
| | (in thousands) | |
Cash | | $ | 634 | |
Identified tangible assets | | | 366 | |
Developed technology | | | 920 | |
Customer relationships | | | 2,190 | |
Goodwill | | | 2,851 | |
Deferred revenue assumed (1) | | | (2,340 | ) |
| | | | |
Total purchase price allocation | | $ | 4,621 | |
| | | | |
(1) | In accordance with EITF 01-03, “Accounting in a Business Combination of Deferred Revenue of an Acquiree”, we have reduced the carrying value of the deferred revenue by 11.4%, which represents the reduction from carrying value to fair value for the legal performance obligation assumed from ViewCentral. |
Amortization of the intangible assets is calculated using an accelerated method for customer relationships that is based on the estimated future cash flows for the relationship, and the straight-line method for the developed technology. The estimated useful life of the amortizable intangible assets acquired is five years for customer relationships and three years for the developed technology. For developed technology and customer relations, we estimated the cash flows associated with the excess earnings the technology and contacts would generate and allocated the present value of those earnings to the asset. We used a discount rate of 16%.
On November 13, 2006, Rainmaker filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the shares issued to ViewCentral’s shareholders that became effective December 8, 2006. 304,737 of such shares remain subject to a contractual prohibition of sale that will be removed on September 15, 2007. In addition, approximately 145,493 of the shares of the common stock consideration have been placed in escrow to secure certain customary indemnity obligations under the Purchase Agreement and will not be released until twelve months after the closing, subject to potential post closing adjustments.
Business Telemetry Asset Purchase
On May 12, 2006, we entered into and closed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Business Telemetry, Inc. (d/b/a Metrics Corporation), a California corporation (Metrics), and Kenneth S. Forbes, III, as representative of the shareholders of Metrics. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Rainmaker acquired certain of the assets of Metrics, including certain software and related intellectual property. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Rainmaker issued 158,480 shares of common stock in exchange for the assets and incurred approximately $70,000 of acquisition related costs. Also, the shareholders of Metrics entered into non-compete agreements with Rainmaker and accepted employment positions with Rainmaker. The estimated value of the 158,480 shares of Rainmaker common stock was $898,000 computed at a per share price of $5.67, the average closing price for the period from May 12, 2006 through May 18, 2006.
Our acquisition of Metrics has been accounted for as a business combination. Assets acquired from Metrics were recorded at their estimated fair values as of May 12, 2006. The total purchase price was $966,000 as follows:
| | | |
| | (in thousands) |
Issuance of 158,480 shares of Rainmaker common stock | | $ | 898 |
Acquisition related transaction costs | | | 68 |
| | | |
Total purchase price | | $ | 966 |
| | | |
Using the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price was allocated to Metric’s net tangible and identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets was recorded as goodwill, which will be amortized over 15 years for tax purposes. Using the estimated future discounted cash flows from the assets acquired, management performed a valuation and the total purchase price was allocated as follows:
| | | |
| | (in thousands) |
Developed technology and customer relationships | | $ | 310 |
Goodwill | | | 656 |
| | | |
Total purchase price allocation | | $ | 966 |
| | | |
13
Amortization of the intangible assets is calculated using an accelerated method for customer relationships that is based on the estimated future cash flows for the relationship, and the straight-line method for the developed technology. The weighted-average useful life of the amortizable intangible assets acquired is approximately three years. For developed technology and customer relations, we estimated the cash flows associated with the excess earnings the technology and contacts would generate and allocated the present value of those earnings to the asset. We used a discount rate of 22%.
Rainmaker filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 23, 2006 that became effective July 28, 2006 with respect to the shares that were issued to Metrics. Such shares were initially subject to a contractual prohibition of sale that has since been removed.

February 2005 Term Loan
In February 2005, concurrent with the closing of the acquisition of Sunset Direct, we entered into a business loan agreement and commercial security agreement with Bridge Bank. The Term Loan is to be repaid in 36 monthly installments of $83,000 plus interest at a variable rate of prime per annum (8.25% per annum at June 30, 2007). We are in compliance with our loan covenants related to this loan as of June 30, 2007.
June 2005 Term Loan
In June 2005, we entered into a business loan agreement with Bridge Bank, pursuant to which we obtained a $1.5 million term loan that is being utilized to fund the implementation of the Company’s new client management system. The June 2005 Term Loan is to be repaid in 36 monthly installments of $42,000 plus interest at a variable rate of prime per annum (8.25% per annum at June 30, 2007). We are in compliance with our loan covenants related to this loan as of June 30, 2007.
Notes Payable – CAS
In connection with our acquisition of the assets of CAS and its Canadian subsidiary, Rainmaker and its Canadian subsidiary, Rainmaker Systems (Canada) Inc., issued notes payable in the amounts of $1.4 million and $600,000, respectively. The two notes are payable in three consecutive annual installments of $467,000 and $200,000, respectively, each, commencing on January 25, 2008, with subsequent installments payable on the anniversary date in 2009 and 2010. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.36% per annum which is payable for the outstanding principal at the end of each calendar quarter.
Revolving Credit Facility
In April 2004, we entered into a business loan agreement and a commercial security agreement with Bridge Bank. The Revolving Credit Facility originally matured in May 2005, and provided borrowing availability up to a maximum of $3.0 million through a secured revolving line of credit that includes a $1.0 million letter of credit facility. In December 2005, the total available under the Revolving Credit Facility was increased to $4.0 million and the maturity was extended to December 2006. In July 2006, the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility was further extended to October 2007. As of June 30, 2007, we had no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility.

On April 25, 2007, we announced that we had closed a public offering of an aggregate of 4,165,690 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $8.50 per share (the “Offering”). Pursuant to the Offering, 3,500,000 shares were sold by us and 665,690 shares were sold by the selling stockholders named in the prospectus supplement, generating gross proceeds to the Company, after underwriting discounts and commissions, of $28.1 million. Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $27.3 million after payment of all expenses relating to the offering. We expect to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to acquire complementary technologies or businesses when the opportunity arises.

9. | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE |
We expense stock-based compensation to the same operating expense categories that the respective award grantee’s salary expense is reported. The table below reflects stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |

| | $ | 399 | | $ | 17 | | $ | 713 | | $ | 31 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
At June 30, 2007, approximately $5.7 million of stock-based compensation relating to unvested awards had not been amortized and will be expensed in future periods through 2011. Under current grants unvested and outstanding, approximately $860,000 will be expensed in the remainder of 2007 as stock-based compensation.
We calculate the value of our stock option awards when they are granted. Accordingly, we update our valuation assumptions for volatility and the risk free interest rate each quarter that option grants are awarded. Annually, we prepare an analysis of the historical activity within our option plans as well as the demographic characteristics of the grantees of options within our stock option plan to determine the estimated life of the grants and possible ranges of estimated forfeiture. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 the valuation assumptions for stock option awards were as follows:
| | | |
Expected life in years | | 4.3 | |
Volatility | | 0.73 | |
Risk-free interest rate | | 4.7 | % |
Forfeiture Rates: | | | |
Four year vesting schedule | | 5.9 | % |
One to two year vesting schedule | | 6.1 | % |
Expected life is estimated based on our analysis of our actual historical option exercises and cancellations. Expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility from traded shares of our stock over the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the rate of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury instrument with a remaining term approximately equal to the expected term. We do not expect to pay dividends in the near term and therefore do not incorporate the dividend yield as part of our assumptions.
A summary of activity under our Stock Incentive Plans for the six months ended June 30, 2007 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | |
| | Options Outstanding |
| | Available for Grant | | | Number of Shares | | | Weighted Average Exercise Price |
Balance at December 31, 2006 | | 506,744 | | | 1,715,486 | | | $ | 4.20 |

Balance at June 30, 2007 | | 829,466 | | | 1,737,964 | | | $ | 4.68 |
| | | | | | | | | |
The following table summarizes the activity with regard to nonvested restricted stock awards during the six months ended June 30, 2007. Nonvested restricted stock awards are issued from the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan and any issuances will reduce the shares available for grant as indicated in the previous table.

On July 19, 2007, the Company entered into and closed a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the shareholders of Qinteraction Limited (“Qinteraction”), a Cayman Islands company, and James F. Bere, Jr. as representative of the shareholders. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, in exchange for all the outstanding shares of Qinteraction, the Company paid at closing a total of $11.5 million, consisting of $7.0 million in cash and $4.5 million in Rainmaker common stock representing 559,284 shares based on the average closing stock price for the 5 trading days immediately preceding the closing. The agreement also provides for a potential additional payment at the end of twelve months, based on the achievement of certain financial milestones for the 12 month period ending June 30, 2008, ranging from no additional payment up to a maximum of $4.5 million in cash and $3.5 million in Rainmaker common stock, subject to potential offset and post-closing conditions.
The Company will be filing a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 80 days of the closing date of the Purchase Agreement for the shares issued to the shareholders of Qinteraction. Such shares are initially subject to a contractual prohibition of sale with shares available for sale from closing as follows: 241,890 shares will be available for public sale after 6 months, 292,226 shares will be available for public sale after one year, and 25,168 shares will be available for public sale after 15 months, subject to certain post-closing conditions and potential adjustments. In addition, the Purchase Agreement provides for 13.5% of the total consideration to be held in escrow, comprising $945,000 in cash and 75,503 shares. Two-thirds of the escrow will be available for release after 12 months and the remaining one-third after 15 months, subject to post-closing conditions, potential adjustments, and offsets.

Overview
We are a leading provider of sales and marketing solutions, combining hosted application software and execution services designed to drive more revenue for our clients. We have developed an integrated solution, the Rainmaker Revenue Delivery PlatformSM, that combines proprietary, on-demand application software and advanced analytics with expert sales and marketing execution services, which can include marketing strategy development, websites, e-commerce portal creation and hosting, both inbound and outbound e-mail, direct mail, chat and telesales services. Our Revenue Delivery Platform combines (1) our proprietary technology platform, including hosted application software, (2) our proprietary database of corporate buyers of technology products and services, (3) our data development and analytics services and (4) our sales and marketing execution services. We are headquartered in Silicon Valley in Campbell, California, and have additional operations in Austin, Texas, Oakland, California, Montreal, Canada, and now Manila, Philippines with our recent acquisition. Our current clients consist primarily of large enterprises operating in the computer hardware and software, telecom and financial services industries.
Our strategy for long-term, sustained growth is to maintain and improve our position as a leading global provider of integrated sales and marketing solutions. Key elements of our strategy include continuing to enhance the execution of our service offerings to generate more revenue for our existing clients thereby increasing our revenue, continuing to seek cross-selling opportunities to increase the range of services provided to our more than 100 existing clients, signing new clients, continuing to identify new services and capabilities that enhance or complement our Revenue Delivery Platform and selectively pursuing strategic acquisitions.
Prior to 2005, substantially all of our net revenue was derived from the commissions we earned on the sale of service contract renewals, software licenses and subscriptions, and warranties. Since 2005, we have added multiple sources of revenue, including lead development services and hosted application software.
Critical Accounting Policies/Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts in our consolidated financial statements. We evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis, including those related to
20
our revenues, asset impairments, restructuring charges, income taxes and commitments and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Although actual results have historically been reasonably consistent with management’s expectations, the actual results may differ from these estimates or our estimates may be affected by different assumptions or conditions.
Management has discussed the development of our critical accounting policies with the audit committee of the board of directors and they have reviewed the disclosures of such policies and management’s estimates in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
On January 1, 2007 we adopted Financial Interpretation No. 48,“Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Accordingly, we have disclosed that our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income before taxes. Penalties, interest paid and interest received are recorded in interest and other income (expense), net, in the statement of operations. Interest and penalties are immaterial at the date of adoption of FIN 48. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our financial statements at January 1, 2007.
With the establishment of our Canadian foreign subsidiary and the subsequent purchase of Canadian based assets from CAS Systems on January 25, 2007, we adopted a policy for recording foreign currency transactions and translation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation” (SFAS No. 52). For our Canadian subsidiary, the functional currency has been determined to be the local currency, and therefore, assets and liabilities are translated at period end exchange rates, and statement of operations items are translated at average exchange rate prevailing during the period. Such translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency denominated transactions are included in interest and other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. Gains from foreign currency denominated transactions amounted to $52,000 and $64,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.
Other than the adoption of FIN 48 and SFAS No. 52, management believes there have been no significant changes during the six months ended June 30, 2007 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 and 2006
Net Revenue. Net revenue increased $6.8 million, or 60%, to $18.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006. Approximately $3.3 million of the increase is due to the acquisitions of CAS Systems and ViewCentral in January 2007 and September 2006, respectively. Additionally, revenue from lead development grew approximately $2.3 million and revenue from contract sales increased approximately $1.2 million as a result of increased sales from existing clients.
Costs of Services and Gross Margin. Costs of services increased $3.8 million, or 67%, to $9.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the 2006 comparative period. The increase was primarily related to increased compensation costs for our lead development and contract sales divisions of approximately $1.3 million along with approximately $1.6 million in expenses related to the acquisitions of CAS Systems and ViewCentral that were acquired subsequent to June 30, 2006. Additionally, outsourced services included in costs of services increased approximately $600,000 between the periods. Our gross margin percentage declined slightly to 48% in the 2007 period from 50% in the three months ended June 30, 2006 as lead development became a larger percentage of our revenue with the acquisition of CAS Systems. Historically, revenue from lead development has a lower margin than revenue from contract sales.
Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses increased $846,000, or 95%, to $1.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the 2006 comparative period. The increase is primarily due to a $520,000 increase in selling expenses from CAS Systems and ViewCentral that were acquired in January 2007 and September 2006, respectively. Additionally, increases in compensation costs of approximately $180,000 were a result of the addition of staff to our sales force and increased commissions from increased sales during the quarter. The remaining change was primarily due to the increase in stock-based compensation costs during the 2007 period and increased travel & entertainment expenses as a result of the larger sales force in 2007. We expect sales and marketing expenses to continue to increase in absolute dollars and slightly as a percentage of revenue for the foreseeable future as we continue to grow.
Technology and Development Expenses. Technology expenses increased $1.4 million, or 98%, to $2.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the 2006 comparative period. We are engaged in continuing significant efforts to enhance our infrastructure and integrate our recent acquisitions. Approximately $750,000 of the increase between the comparative periods is due to increased temporary staffing, outsourced services and consultants for our infrastructure enhancements as well as the continued support of the database infrastructure which we rely on to service our
22
customers. We believe that by using outsourced hosting for parts of our technology infrastructure, we will be able to better leverage the future expansion of our business. As a result of our recent acquisitions, we incurred approximately $350,000 in additional technology and development expense during the three months ended June 30, 2007. The remaining increase is due to increased compensation costs of approximately $290,000 for additional staff added to support the growth in our business. We expect technology and development expenses to increase on an absolute dollar basis and as a percentage of net revenues in 2007 as we continue to invest in development of our solutions, including internationalization of our solutions, for our customers and in technology infrastructure.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $883,000, or 50%, to $2.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006. The overall increase was primarily due to increases in compensation costs of approximately $350,000 for additional staff added to support the growth of the business and to assist in the Company’s compliance efforts related to Sarbanes-Oxley. Additionally, we incurred approximately $250,000 in expenses from CAS Systems and ViewCentral during the quarter, which were acquired subsequent to June 30, 2006, and audit and consulting fees increased approximately $180,000 during the quarter relating to Sarbanes-Oxley compliance work. The remaining change was primarily due to the increase in stock-based compensation expense during the 2007 period. We expect to incur additional substantial costs in 2007 to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and, therefore, expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $407,000, or 52%, to $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the 2006 period. Amortization of intangible assets increased by $362,000 in the 2007 period, primarily as a result of acquisitions that occurred after June 30, 2006. These include the acquisition of ViewCentral in September 2006 and CAS Systems in January 2007. The remaining increase is due to increased depreciation of property and equipment as a result of our acquisitions and capital expenditures over the last year. Because of our acquisitions and the investments being made in our infrastructure, we expect depreciation and amortization expense to continue to increase for the foreseeable future.
Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net. The components of interest and other income (expense), net are as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | | | Change | |
| | 2007 | | | 2006 | | |
Interest income | | $ | 392 | | | $ | 41 | | | $ | 351 | |
Interest expense | | | (54 | ) | | | (66 | ) | | | 12 | |
Currency translation gain | | | 52 | | | | — | | | | 52 | |
Other | | | 1 | | | | 2 | | | | (1 | ) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | $ | 391 | | | $ | (23 | ) | | | 414 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
The increase in interest income is attributable to the net proceeds of $27.3 million received from our follow-on offering of common stock which was invested in interest bearing deposit accounts during the quarter. Interest expense is the result of the $3.0 million Term Loan obtained in February 2005 in connection with the acquisition of Sunset Direct, interest on the $1.5 million June 2005 Term Loan to fund the purchase and implementation of our new client management system and interest incurred with notes payable issued with the purchase of the assets of CAS Systems. We have been making principal payments on the term loans and interest expense was therefore reduced in the 2007 period which was offset by the increase in interest expense due to the CAS Systems notes.
The currency translation gain is primarily due to the fluctuation of currency exchange rates on a note payable to a third party denominated in United States dollars that is owed by our Canadian subsidiary. Fluctuations of currency exchange rates may have a negative effect in future periods on our financial results.
Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense increased $115,000 or 639% to $133,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006. The Company’s low effective tax rate reflects the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income. As of January 1, 2007, Texas changed its calculation of franchise tax. The new calculation is computed on taxable margin, as defined under Texas statute. The Texas state franchise tax resulted in approximately $54,000 in additional income tax for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Our income tax expense for the three month period ended June 30, 2007 is based on our estimate of taxable income for the full year ended December 31, 2007. The effective tax rate implied by our income tax expense may be adjusted if our estimate of taxable income changes significantly.
23
Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 and 2006
Net Revenue. Net revenue increased $12.0 million, or 54%, to $34.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. Revenue from lead development grew $7.4 million over the comparative period primarily due to our acquisition of CAS Systems, which contributed $3.7 million in revenue during the period, and expansion with existing clients. Revenue from service contract sales grew $4.6 million over the comparative period substantially as a result of increased sales from existing clients and our acquisition of ViewCentral on September 15, 2006 which added approximately $2.0 million in revenue from the licensing of hosted software for training sales for the period.
Costs of Services and Gross Margin. Costs of services increased $6.6 million, or 59%, to $17.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the 2006 comparative period. The increase was primarily due to approximately $2.7 million in expenses from ViewCentral and CAS Systems that were acquired subsequent to June 30, 2006. Additionally, increases in compensation costs of approximately $2.1 million which include salaries, bonuses and commissions were related to the hiring of additional staff to support the increased sales volume in both lead development and contract sales. Increases in outsourced services and marketing expenses are the primary components of the remaining portion of the increase in costs of services. Our gross margin percentage declined slightly to 49% in the 2007 period from 50% in the six months ended June 30, 2006 as lead development became a larger percentage of our revenue with the acquisition of CAS Systems.
Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses increased $1.8 million, or 111%, to $3.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. The increase is primarily due to approximately $950,000 in expenses from ViewCentral and CAS Systems that were acquired subsequent to June 30, 2006, and approximately $390,000 in increased compensation costs as a result of the addition of staff to our sales force and increased commissions from increased sales during the period. The remaining change was primarily due to the increase in stock-based compensation costs during the 2007 period and increased travel & entertainment expenses as a result of the larger sales force in 2007. We expect sales and marketing expenses to continue to increase in absolute dollars and slightly as a percentage of sales for the foreseeable future as a result of our larger sales force and increased sales and marketing costs associated with the operations of our recent acquisitions.
Technology and Development Expenses. Technology and development expenses increased $2.5 million, or 96%, to $5.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the 2006 comparative period. We are engaged in continuing significant efforts to enhance our infrastructure and integrate our recent acquisitions. Approximately $1.5 million of the increase between the comparative periods is due to increased temporary staffing, outsourced services and consultants for our infrastructure enhancements as well as the continued support of the database infrastructure which we rely on to service our customers. We believe that by using outsourced hosting for parts of our technology infrastructure, we will be able to better leverage the future expansion of our business. As a result of our recent acquisitions, we incurred an approximately $640,000 in additional technology and development expense during the six months ended June 30, 2007. The remaining increase is due primarily to increased compensation costs for additional staff added to support the growth in our business. We expect technology and development expenses to increase on an absolute dollar basis and as a percentage of net revenues in 2007 as we continue to invest in development of our solutions, including internationalization of our solutions, for our customers and in technology infrastructure.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $1.0 million, or 26%, to $4.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. The overall increase was primarily due to the acquisitions of ViewCentral and CAS Systems which provided approximately $417,000 in additional expenses during 2007. Additionally, stock-based compensation increased $306,000 between the periods. The remaining change was primarily due to increases in compensation costs for additional staff added to support the growth of the business and to assist in the Company’s compliance efforts related to Sarbanes-Oxley, and increased audit and consulting fees from Sarbanes-Oxley documentation and testing. We expect to incur additional and substantial costs in 2007 to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and, therefore, expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars for the remainder of our 2007 fiscal year.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $851,000, or 57%, to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the 2006 period. Amortization of intangible assets increased by $770,000 in the 2007 period primarily as a result of acquisitions of ViewCentral and CAS Systems that occurred after June 30, 2006. The remaining increase is due to increased depreciation of property and equipment as a result of our acquisitions and capital expenditures over the last year. Because of our acquisitions and the investments being made in our infrastructure, we expect depreciation and amortization expense to continue to increase for the foreseeable future.

The increase in interest income is attributable to an increase in cash available to invest in interest bearing deposits from the $27.3 million in net proceeds that we received from our follow-on offering of common stock in April 2007. Interest expense is the result of the $3.0 million Term Loan obtained in February 2005 in connection with the acquisition of Sunset Direct, interest on the $1.5 million June 2005 Term Loan to fund the purchase and implementation of our new client management system and interest incurred with notes payable issued with the purchase of the assets of CAS Systems. In the six months ended June 30, 2006, we were required to capitalize $63,000 in interest costs associated with the development of our client management system, amortization of which began in 2006. Had this not been capitalized, interest expense in the 2006 period would have been higher than the 2007 period.
The currency translation gain is primarily due to the fluctuation of currency exchange rates on a note payable to a third party denominated in United States dollars that is owed by our Canadian subsidiary. Fluctuations of currency exchange rates may have a negative effect in future periods on our financial results.
Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense increased $189,000 or 263% to $261,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. The Company’s low effective tax rate reflects the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income. As of January 1, 2007, Texas changed its calculation of franchise tax. The new calculation is computed on taxable margin, as defined under Texas statute. The Texas state franchise tax resulted in approximately $108,000 in additional income tax for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Our income tax expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2007 is based on our estimate of taxable income for the full year ended December 31, 2007. The effective tax rate implied by our income tax expense may be adjusted if our estimate of taxable income changes significantly.
Liquidity and Sources of Capital
During the six months ended June 30, 2007 we generated $2.6 million of cash from operating activities and for the year ended December 31, 2006 we generated $10.5 million of cash from operating activities. Prior to 2006, we used cash in operating activities in substantially all years and funded our operations from cash proceeds from the sale of common stock and the incurrence of debt. From 2004 through 2006, we raised aggregate net proceeds of $14.2 million from private placements of common stock. During the same period, we raised an aggregate of $4.5 million from term loans from institutional lenders to fund our operations and support our acquisitions of other businesses. On April 25, 2007, we closed a follow-on public offering of our common stock in which we issued an additional 3.5 million shares and raised approximately $27.3 million after discounts, commissions and expenses.
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $2.6 million as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $3.1 million in the comparable 2006 period. Cash provided by operating activities in the 2007 was primarily the result of net income totaling $1.1 million, plus non-cash expenditures of depreciation and amortization of property and intangibles, stock-based compensation and the provision for allowance for doubtful accounts that totaled $3.2 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, that used $1.7 million.
The two largest components of our changes in operating assets and liabilities are accounts payable and accounts receivable. When we sell a service or maintenance contract for a client, we record the sales price of the contract to the client’s customer as our receivable and also record our payable to the client for our cost of the contract, which is effectively the same amount less our compensation for obtaining the contract for our client. For this reason, our accounts payable is composed primarily of amounts due to our clients for service and maintenance contracts we sold on their behalf. Accounts payable therefore increases in relation to our increased sales of service contracts on behalf of our clients. However, because
25
we report as revenue only the net difference between our account receivable from the customer of our client and our account payable to our client, any increase in net revenue from service contract sales results in a much larger increase in our accounts payable, which is treated as positive cash flow from operating activities.
Our accounts receivable have grown in relation to our growth in revenue. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, our days sales outstanding, or DSO, increased to 31 days from 28 days at December 31, 2006. Since we record the gross billing to the end customer of our clients in our accounts receivable, we calculate DSO based on our ability to collect those gross billings from the end customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006, our accounts receivable has increased at a faster rate than the increase in accounts payable. This is reflective of an additional $1.7 million in additional receivables that were generated from our CAS lead development business unit since its acquisition on January 25, 2007.
The $257,000 increase in other accrued liabilities is primarily due to accrued costs during the six months ended June 30, 2007 relating to the acquisition of Qinteraction Limited, which closed on July 19, 2007. The $71,000 decrease in deferred revenue was primarily a function of sales volume and the Company’s ability to pre-bill for services rendered.
Cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2006 is primarily the result of net income of $1.6 million. The non-cash expenditures of depreciation and amortization of property and intangibles, stock-based compensation and the provision for allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $1.6 million. Together, net income and non-cash expenditures contributed $3.2 million to cash from operating activities. The change in operating assets and liabilities (receivables, payables and other liabilities) used approximately $111,000 in operating cash during the six months ended June 30, 2006. In total, cash provided by operating activities was $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Cash used in investing activities was $3.6 million and $806,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we used cash of $1.5 million, including deal costs and net of cash acquired to acquire the assets of CAS Systems, Inc. Capital expenditures of $2.1 million and $844,000 primarily represent investments in our technology infrastructure during the 2007 and 2006 periods, respectively. Restricted cash represents the reserve for the refund due for non-service payments inadvertently paid to the Company by its customers instead of paid directly to the Company’s clients. At the time of cash receipt the Company records a current liability for the amount of non-service payments received. The decrease in restricted cash represents the reduction of our balance of refunds due to customers.
Cash provided by financing activities was $26.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007. During the comparative period ended June 30, 2006 we generated $3.0 million from financing activities. Cash provided by financing activities in the 2007 period was primarily from the net proceeds received from the follow-on offering of common stock in April 2007. Additionally, cash provided by the issuance of common stock from option exercises, employee stock purchase plan purchases and warrant exercises totaled approximately $394,000. Principal payments on our bank notes amounted to $750,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2007. During the 2006 period we generated $5.3 million from our placement of common stock and approximately $715,000 from option exercises, employee stock purchase plan purchases and warrant exercises. This was offset in part by principal payments totaling $3.0 million on our line of credit, term loans and other financing obligations.
Our principal source of liquidity as of June 30, 2007 consisted of $47.8 million of cash and cash equivalents and approximately $3.6 million remaining on our secured revolving line of credit, or Revolving Credit Facility. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to completing our follow-on public offering of stock, in which we received net proceeds of approximately $27.3 million. In connection with a financial covenant related to our term loans, we are required to maintain unrestricted cash deposits of $1.25 million with our lender Bridge Bank, N.A., or Bridge Bank, which is included in the $47.8 million of cash and cash equivalents. We anticipate that our existing capital resources and cash flow expected to be generated from future operations will enable us to maintain our current level of operations, our planned operations and our planned capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months.
On July 19, 2007, the Company entered into and closed a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the shareholders of Qinteraction Limited (“Qinteraction”). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, in exchange for all the outstanding shares of Qinteraction, the Company paid at closing a total of $11.5 million, consisting of $7.0 million in cash and $4.5 million in Rainmaker common stock representing 559,284 shares based on the average closing stock price for the 5 trading days immediately preceding the closing. The agreement also provides for a potential additional payment at the end of twelve months, based on the achievement of certain financial milestones for the 12 month period ending June 30, 2008, ranging from no additional payment up to a maximum of $4.5 million in cash and $3.5 million in Rainmaker common stock, subject to potential offset and post-closing conditions.

Credit Arrangements
In connection with the CAS acquisition, Rainmaker and its wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Rainmaker Systems (Canada), issued two notes payable in the amounts of $1.4 million and $600,000, respectively. The two notes are payable in three consecutive annual installments of $467,000 and $200,000, respectively, each, commencing on January 25, 2008, with subsequent installments payable on the anniversary date in 2009 and 2010. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.36% per annum which is payable on the outstanding principal at the end of each calendar quarter. At June 30, 2007, the combined $2.0 million balance of the notes payable was outstanding.
On July 6, 2006, we executed a further amendment to our Revolving Credit Facility with our lender, Bridge Bank. The amendment extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from December 10, 2006 to October 10, 2007. The amount of credit available to the company remains at $4.0 million with a $1.0 million subfacility for standby letters of credit, and the interest rate for any advances under the Revolving Credit Facility remains at the prime lending rate (8.25% per annum at June 30, 2007). As of June 30, 2007, we had no borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and had two undrawn letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility that together combine for a face amount of $425,000. We had originally entered into this Revolving Credit Facility with our lender in April 2004.
In July 2005, we issued an irrevocable standby letter of credit in the amount of $100,000 to our landlord for a security deposit for our new corporate headquarters located in Campbell, California. In 2004, we issued an irrevocable standby letter of credit to one of our clients. The letter of credit was issued in the amount of $325,000 as a guarantee for service contracts sold by us on behalf of our client and will expire in September 2007. The letters of credit were issued under the Revolving Credit Facility described above. As of June 30, 2007, no amounts have been drawn against the letters of credit.
In June 2005, we entered into a business loan agreement with Bridge Bank, pursuant to which we obtained a $1.5 million term loan, or the June 2005 Term Loan, that was utilized to fund the purchase and implementation of our new client management system. The June 2005 Term Loan is to be repaid in 36 monthly installments of $42,000 plus interest at a variable rate of prime per annum (8.25% per annum at June 30, 2007). The interest rate on the June 2005 Term Loan was reduced from prime plus 1% to prime in July 2006.
Concurrently with the closing of the merger transaction with Sunset Direct in February 2005, we entered into a Business Loan Agreement and Commercial Security Agreement with Bridge Bank, and obtained a $3.0 million term loan, or the Term Loan, that we used to retire certain indebtedness and certain other liabilities of Sunset Direct. The Term Loan is repayable in 36 monthly installments of $83,000 plus interest at a variable rate of prime per annum (8.25% per annum at June 30, 2007). The interest rate on the Term Loan was reduced from prime plus 1% to prime in July 2006.
The Term Loan, June 2005 Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of our consolidated assets, including intellectual property. We are subject to certain financial covenants, including maintenance of unrestricted cash of $1.25 million with Bridge Bank, reducing from time to time to the outstanding amount of the Term Loan and June 2005 Term Loan referenced above rounded upwards to the nearest $250,000 increment. We are obligated to maintain a specified minimum net income and minimum debt service coverage ratio. The Term Loan, the June 2005 Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility contain customary covenants that will, subject to limited exceptions, limit our ability to, among other things, (i) create liens; (ii) make capital expenditures; (iii) pay cash dividends; and (iv) merge or consolidate with another company. The Term Loan, June 2005 Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility also provide for customary events of default, including nonpayment, breach of covenants, payment defaults of other indebtedness, and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization that may result in acceleration of outstanding amounts under the Term Loan, the June 2005 Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility. At June 30, 2007, we were in compliance with all loan covenants and had $667,000 and $500,000 outstanding on the Term Loan and June 2005 Term Loan, respectively, and no amount outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Leases
As of June 30, 2007, our off-balance sheet arrangements include operating leases for our facilities and certain property and equipment that expire at various dates through 2010, including an additional facility operating lease commitment assumed in connection with our acquisition of Sunset Direct in February 2005 and the lease for our corporate headquarters in Campbell, California, as described below. These arrangements allow us to obtain the use of the equipment and facilities without purchasing them. If we were to acquire these assets, we would be required to obtain financing and record a liability related to the financing of these assets. Leasing these assets under operating leases allows us to use these assets for our business while minimizing the obligations and up front cash flow related to purchasing the assets.
27
On November 13, 2006, we executed an amendment to the operating lease for our corporate headquarters in Campbell, California. Under the lease and its amendment, we have a total of 23,149 square feet of usable office space. The lease term originally began on November 1, 2005 and will now end on January 31, 2010. Beginning January 1, 2007 and through the expiration of the lease term, base rent will escalate from approximately $392,000 in 2007 to $440,000 in 2010, the final full year of the lease. In addition, we must pay its proportionate share of operating costs and taxes. In connection with the execution of the lease, we have issued a letter of credit to the landlord in the amount of $100,000 as a security deposit.
In Austin, Texas we have rented a total 59,466 square feet of office space under a lease and its amendments that expire in June of 2009. In August 2005, we renewed the existing lease for 46,366 square feet of space and then in March 2006 we further amended the lease for an additional 7,623 square feet of space. Under the lease and its amendments, our base rent will escalate from approximately $407,000 in 2007 to $447,000 in the final full year of the lease that ends in June 2009. On April 16, 2007, we entered into a sublease agreement in the same building as our other lease in Austin for an additional 5,477 feet that expires on July 31, 2008. The rent on the sublease space is fixed at $2,700 per month.
With our acquisition of the assets of CAS Systems, we assumed existing lease obligations in Oakland, California and Vaudreuil, Quebec which is near Montreal. The Oakland lease began on May 19, 2006 and terminates on May 31, 2011. In Oakland, we occupy 10,039 feet with annual base rent that escalates from $227,000 in 2007 to $251,000 in the final full year ending May 31, 2011. The Vaudreuil lease began January 1, 2001 and terminates December 31, 2007. In Vaudreuil, we occupy 12,447 feet and, based on the currency exchange rate at June 30, 2007, are obligated to pay approximately $105,000 through the remainder of 2007. In both the California, Texas and Canadian facilities, we pay rent and maintenance on some of the common areas in each of our leased facilities.
Guarantees
In July 2005, we issued an irrevocable standby letter of credit in the amount of $100,000 to our landlord for a security deposit for our new corporate headquarters located in Campbell, California. In 2004, we issued an irrevocable standby letter of credit to one of our clients. The letter of credit was issued in the amount of $325,000 as a guarantee for service contracts sold by us on behalf of our client and will expire in September 2007. The letters of credit were issued under the Revolving Credit Facility described above. As of June 30, 2007, no amounts have been drawn against the letters of credit.
From time to time, we enter into certain types of contracts that contingently require us to indemnify parties against third party claims. These obligations primarily relate to certain agreements with our clients under our service contracts, under which we may be required to indemnify clients for certain third party claims, and certain agreements with our officers, directors and employees, under which we may be required to indemnify such persons for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship. The terms of such obligations vary. Generally, a maximum obligation is not explicitly stated. Because the obligated amounts of these types of agreements often are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligations cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, we have not had to make any payments for these obligations, and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations on our balance sheets as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.
Contractual Obligations
Term Loans
In June 2005, we entered into a business loan agreement with Bridge Bank, pursuant to which we obtained a $1.5 million term loan that is being utilized to fund the implementation of the Company’s new client management system. The June 2005 Term Loan is to be repaid in 36 monthly installments of $42,000 plus interest at a variable rate of prime per annum (8.25% per annum at June 30, 2007). As of June 30, 2007, we had approximately $500,000 outstanding on the June 2005 Term Loan. The interest rate on the June 2005 Term Loan was reduced from prime plus 1% to prime by the amendment that we executed with our lender on July 6, 2006.
In February 2005, concurrent with the closing of the acquisition of Sunset Direct, we entered into a business loan agreement and commercial security agreement with Bridge Bank. The Term Loan is to be repaid in 36 monthly installments of $83,000 plus interest at a variable rate of prime per annum (8.25% per annum at June 30, 2007). As of June 30, 2007, we had approximately $667,000 outstanding on the Term Loan. The interest rate on the Term Loan was reduced from prime plus 1% to prime by the amendment that we executed with our lender on July 6, 2006.
Notes Payable
In connection with our acquisition of the assets of CAS Systems and its Canadian subsidiary, Rainmaker and its Canadian subsidiary, Rainmaker Systems (Canada) Inc., issued notes payable in the amounts of $1.4 million and $600,000, respectively. The two notes are payable in three consecutive annual installments of $467,000 and $200,000, respectively,
28
each, commencing on January 25, 2008, with subsequent installments payable on the anniversary date in 2009 and 2010. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.36% per annum which is payable on the outstanding principal at the end of each calendar quarter. At June 30, 2007, $2.0 million in notes payable was outstanding.
Revolving Credit Facility
In April 2004, we entered into a business loan agreement and a commercial security agreement with Bridge Bank. The Revolving Credit Facility originally matured in May 2005, and provided borrowing availability up to a maximum of $3.0 million through a secured revolving line of credit that includes a $1.0 million letter of credit facility. In December 2005, the total available under the Revolving Credit Facility was increased to $4.0 million and the maturity was extended to December 2006. In July 2006, the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility was further extended to October 2007. As of June 30, 2007, we had no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Potential Impact of Inflation
To date, inflation has not had a material impact on our business.
ITEM 3. | QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Management does not believe our exposure to market risk has significantly changed since December 31, 2006 and does not believe that such risks will result in significant adverse impacts to our financial condition or results of operations.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
(a) | Disclosure Controls and Procedures |
As of June 30, 2007, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that all material information required to be filed in this quarterly report has been made known to them in a timely manner.
(b) | Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting |
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of our 2007 fiscal year that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II.—OTHER INFORMATION
We currently are not a party to any material legal proceedings and are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation that would have a material adverse effect on us or our business.
29
Risks Related to Our Business
Because we depend on a small number of clients for a significant portion of our revenue, the loss of a single client or any significant reduction in the volume of services we provide to any of our principal clients could result in a substantial decrease in our revenue.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, two clients, Dell and Hewlett-Packard, each accounted for more than 10% of our net revenue and collectively represented 42% and 45% of our net revenue for these respective periods. Our largest client, Dell, represented 29% and 32% of our net revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, these same two clients accounted for more than 10% of our revenue and collectively represented 49% and 49% of our net revenue for the respective periods with Dell representing 39% and 38% of our net revenue for these prior year periods.
We expect that a small number of clients will continue to account for a significant portion of our net revenue for the foreseeable future. The loss of any of our principal clients would cause a significant decrease in our net revenue. In addition, our software and technology clients operate in industries that experience consolidation from time to time, which could reduce the number of our existing and potential clients. Any loss of a single significant client may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows and results of operations.
Our clients may, from time to time, restructure their businesses, which may adversely impact the revenues we generate from those clients. For example, in March 2007, Dell informed us that it was restructuring a portion of its business for which we provide contract sales services. As a result, we indicated at that time that we expected our revenue from Dell for 2007 to be flat from 2006. Any further restructuring by Dell, or any similar restructuring by one of our other clients, could reduce the volume of services we provide and further reduce our expected future revenues, which would likely have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows and results of operations.
Our agreements with our clients allow for termination with short notice periods.
Our service sales agreements and our lead generation agreements generally allow our clients to terminate such agreements without cause with 90 to 180 days notice and 30 days notice, respectively. Our clients are under no obligation to renew their engagements with us when their contracts come up for renewal. In addition, our agreements with our clients are generally not exclusive.
We have strong competitors and may not be able to compete effectively against them.
Competition in our industry is intense, and such competition may increase in the future. Our competitors include providers of service contract sales and lead generation services, enterprise application software providers, providers of database marketing services, e-commerce service providers, online marketing services, and companies that offer training management systems. We also face competition from internal marketing departments of current and potential clients. Additionally, for portions of our service offering, we may face competition from outsource providers with substantial offshore facilities which may enable them to compete aggressively with similar service offerings at a substantially lower price. Many of our existing or potential competitors have greater brand recognition, longer operating histories, and significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources, which could further impact our ability to address competitive pressures. Should competitive factors require us to increase spending for, and investment in, client acquisition and retention or for the development of new services, our expenses could increase disproportionately to our revenues. Competitive pressures may also necessitate price reductions and other actions that would likely affect our business adversely. Additionally, there can be no assurances that we will have the resources to maintain a higher level of spending to address changes in the competitive landscape. Failure to maintain or to produce revenue proportionate to any increase in expenses would have a negative impact on our financial position, cash flows and operating results.
Our revenue will decline if demand for our clients’ products and services decreases.
A significant portion of our business consists of marketing and selling our clients’ services to their customers. In addition, a significant percentage of our revenue is based on a “pay for performance” model in which our revenue is based on the amount of our clients’ services that we sell. Accordingly, if a particular client’s products and services fail to appeal to its customers for reasons beyond our control, such as preference for a competing product or service, our revenue may decline. In addition, revenue from our lead generation service offering could decline if our clients reduce their marketing efforts.
30
Any efforts we may make in the future to expand our service offerings may not succeed.
To date, we have focused our business on providing our service offerings to enterprises in selected vertical markets that retain our services and/or license our software in an effort to market and sell their offerings to their business customers. We may seek to expand our service offerings in the future to other markets, including other industry verticals or the business-to-consumer market. Any such effort to expand could cause us to incur significant investment costs and expenses and could ultimately not result in significant revenue growth for us. In addition, any efforts to expand could divert management resources from existing operations and require us to commit significant financial and other resources to unproven businesses.
Any acquisitions or strategic transactions in which we participate could result in dilution, unfavorable accounting charges and difficulties in successfully managing our business.
As part of our business strategy, we review from time to time acquisitions or other strategic transactions that would complement our existing business or enhance our technology capabilities. Future acquisitions or strategic transactions could result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the use of cash, large and immediate write-offs, the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities, amortization of intangible assets or impairment of goodwill, any of which could cause our financial performance to suffer. Furthermore, acquisitions or other strategic transactions entail numerous risks and uncertainties, including:
| • | | difficulties assimilating the operations, personnel, technologies, products and information systems of the combined companies; |
| • | | diversion of management’s attention; |
| • | | risks of entering geographic and business markets in which we have no or limited prior experience; and |
| • | | potential loss of key employees of acquired organizations. |
We perform valuation analyses on all acquisitions and reassess the valuations and carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets on our balance sheet at least annually. As of June 30, 2007, we had $8.6 million in goodwill and $5.5 million of unamortized intangibles. This reassessment has in the past resulted in adjustments in amortization schedules, and could in the future result in further adjustments, or in write-downs or write-offs of assets, which would negatively affect our financial position and operating results.
We cannot be certain that we would be able to successfully integrate any operations, personnel, technologies, products and information systems that might be acquired in the future, and our failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows and operating results.
Our business strategy may include further expansion into foreign markets, which would require increased expenditures, and if our international operations are not successfully implemented, they may not result in increased revenue or growth of our business.
On January 25, 2007, we acquired the business of CAS Systems, which has significant operations near Montreal, Canada. On July 19, 2007, we acquired Qinteraction Limited, which operates a call center in Manila, Philippines. Our growth strategy may include further expansion into international markets. Our international expansion may require significant additional financial resources and management attention, and could have a negative effect on our financial position, cash flows and operating results. In addition, we may be exposed to associated risks and challenges, including:
| • | | regional and economic political conditions; |
| • | | foreign currency fluctuations; |
| • | | different or lesser protection of intellectual property rights; |
| • | | longer accounts receivable collection cycles; |
| • | | different pricing environments; |
| • | | difficulty in staffing and managing foreign operations; |

| • | | foreign government regulations. |
We cannot assure you that we will be successful in creating international demand for our services and software or that we will be able to effectively sell our clients’ services in international markets.

Our success depends on our ability to successfully manage growth.
Any future growth will place additional demands on our managerial, administrative, operational and financial resources. We will need to improve our operational, financial and managerial controls and information systems and procedures and will need to train and manage our overall work force. If we are unable to manage additional growth effectively, our business will be harmed.
The length and unpredictability of the sales and integration cycles could cause delays in our revenue growth.
Selection of our services and software can entail an extended decision making process on the part of prospective clients. We often must educate our potential clients regarding the use and benefit of our services and software, which may delay the evaluation and acceptance process. For the service contract sales portion of our solution, the selling cycle can extend to approximately 9 to 12 months or longer between initial client contact and signing of an agreement. Once our services and software are selected, integration with our clients’ systems can be a lengthy process, which further impacts the timing of revenue. Because we are unable to control many of the factors that will influence our clients’ buying decisions or the integration process of our services and software, it can be difficult to forecast the growth and timing of our revenue.
We have incurred recent losses and may incur losses in the future.
Although we reported net income in the first and second quarter of 2007 and for each of the four quarters during 2006, we incurred a net loss of $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, and a net loss of $4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. Our accumulated deficit through June 30, 2007 is $58.5 million. We may incur losses in the future, depending on the timing of signing of new clients, costs to initiate service for new clients, our ability to retain and expand our service to existing clients, our ability to successfully compete, our decisions to further invest in our technology or infrastructure, and our ability to continue to increase our operating efficiencies.
We may need to raise additional capital which might not be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all.
We may require additional capital for the acquisition of businesses, products or technologies that are complementary to ours, or to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements. To date, we have raised capital through both equity and debt financings. On April 25, 2007, we completed a follow-on public offering of our stock in which we issued an additional 3.5 million shares. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and interest expenses that will affect our financial results. Additional funding may not be available when needed or on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain additional capital, we may be required to delay or reduce the scope of our operations.
Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate, and if we do not meet market expectations, our stock price could decline.
Our future operating results may not follow past trends in every quarter, even if they continue to improve overall. In any future quarter, our operating results may fall below the expectations of public market analysts and investors.
Factors which may cause our future operating results to be below expectations include:
| • | | the growth of the market for our sales and marketing solutions; |
| • | | the demand for and acceptance of our services; |
| • | | the demand for our clients’ products and services; |
| • | | the length of the sales and integration cycle for our new clients; |
| • | | our ability to expand relationships with existing clients; |
| • | | our ability to develop and implement additional services, products and technologies; |
| • | | the success of our direct sales force; |
| • | | our ability to retain existing clients; |
| • | | the costs of complying with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; |
| • | | the granting of additional stock options and/or restricted stock awards resulting in additional FAS 123R stock option expense; |
| • | | new product and service offerings from our competitors; |
| • | | general economic conditions; |
| • | | regulatory compliance costs; |
32
| • | | our ability to integrate acquisitions and the costs and write-downs associated with them, including the amortization of intangibles; and |
| • | | our ability to expand our operations, including potential further international expansion. |
We may experience seasonality in our sales, which could cause our quarterly operating results to fluctuate from quarter to quarter.
As we continue to grow our lead generation service offerings, we will experience seasonal fluctuations in our revenue as companies’ spending on marketing can be stronger in the second and fourth quarters than in the first and third. In addition, since our lead generation service offering has lower gross margins than our other service offerings, we may experience quarterly fluctuations in our financial performance as a result of a seasonal shift in the mix of our service offerings.
If we are unable to attract and retain highly qualified management, sales and technical personnel, the quality of our services may decline, and our ability to execute our growth strategies may be harmed.
Our success depends to a significant extent upon the contributions of our executive officers and key sales and technical personnel and our ability to attract and retain highly qualified sales, technical and managerial personnel. Competition for personnel is intense as these personnel are limited in supply. We have at times experienced difficulty in recruiting qualified personnel, and there can be no assurance that we will not experience difficulties in the future, which could limit our future growth. The loss of certain key personnel, particularly Michael Silton, our chief executive officer, and Steve Valenzuela, our chief financial officer, could seriously harm our business.
We rely heavily on our communications infrastructure, and the failure to invest in or the loss of these systems could disrupt the operation and growth of our business and result in the loss of clients or our clients’ customers.
Our success is dependent in large part on our continued investment in sophisticated computer, Internet and telecommunications systems. We have invested significantly in technology and anticipate that it will be necessary to continue to do so in the future to remain competitive. These technologies are evolving rapidly and are characterized by short product life cycles, which require us to anticipate technology developments. We may be unsuccessful in anticipating, managing, adopting and integrating technology changes on a timely basis, or we may not have the capital resources available to invest in new technologies.
Our operations could suffer from telecommunications or technology downtime, disruptions or increased costs.
In the event that one of our operations facilities has a lapse of service or damage to such facility, our clients could experience interruptions in our service as well as delays, and we might incur additional expense in arranging new facilities and services. Our disaster recovery computer hardware and systems located at our facilities in California, Texas, Canada, and the Philippines have not been tested under actual disaster conditions and may not have sufficient capacity to recover all data and services in the event of an outage occurring at one of our operations facilities. In the event of a disaster in which one of our operations facilities is irreparably damaged or destroyed, we could experience lengthy interruptions in our service. While we have not experienced extended system failures in the past, any interruptions or delays in our service, whether as a result of third party error, our own error, natural disasters or security breaches, whether accidental or willful, could harm our relationships with clients and our reputation. Also, in the event of damage or interruption, our insurance policies may not adequately compensate us for any losses that we may incur. These factors in turn could damage our brand and reputation, divert our employees’ attention, reduce our revenue, subject us to liability, cause us to issue credits or cause clients to fail to renew their contracts, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Temporary or permanent loss of these systems could limit our ability to conduct our business and result in lost revenue.
We have made significant investments in technology systems that operate our business operations. Such assets are subject to reviews for impairment in the event they are not fully utilized.
We have made technology and system improvements and capitalized those costs while the technology was being developed. During the year ended December 31, 2006, we deployed our new customer relationship management, or CRM, system, which we had developed over an 18-month period. We invested $3.2 million in this system, which has a carrying value of $2.4 million as of June 30, 2007 as capitalized software, and is being amortized over five years. We are using it as a CRM platform for our service sales clients. If unforeseen events or circumstances prohibit us from using this system with all clients, we may be forced to impair some or all of this asset, which could result in a charge to our financial results.
33
Defects or errors in our software could harm our reputation, impair our ability to sell our services and result in significant costs to us.
Our software is complex and may contain undetected defects or errors. We have not suffered significant harm from any defects or errors to date, but we have from time to time found defects in our software and we may discover additional defects in the future. We may not be able to detect and correct defects or errors before releasing software. Consequently, we or our clients may discover defects or errors after our software has been implemented. We have in the past implemented, and may in the future need to implement corrections to our software to correct defects or errors. The occurrence of any defects or errors could result in:
| • | | our inability to execute our services on behalf of our clients; |
| • | | delays in payment to us by customers; |
| • | | damage to our reputation; |
| • | | diversion of our resources; |
| • | | legal claims, including product liability claims, against us; |
| • | | increased service and warranty expenses or financial concessions; and |
| • | | increased insurance costs. |
Our liability insurance may not be adequate to cover all of the costs resulting from these legal claims. Moreover, we cannot assure you that our current liability insurance coverage will continue to be available on acceptable terms or that the insurer will not deny coverage as to any future claim. The successful assertion against us of one or more large claims that exceeds available insurance coverage, or the occurrence of changes in our insurance policies, including premium increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements, could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. Furthermore, even if we succeed in the litigation, we are likely to incur substantial costs and our management’s attention will be diverted from our operations.
If we are unable to safeguard our networks and clients’ data, our clients may not use our services and our business may be harmed.
Our networks may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer hacking, computer viruses and other security problems. An individual who circumvents security measures could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions or malfunctions in our operations. We may be required to expend significant resources to protect against the threat of security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by any breaches. Security measures that we adopt from time to time may be inadequate.
If we fail to adequately protect our intellectual property or face a claim of intellectual property infringement by a third party, we may lose our intellectual property rights and be liable for significant damages.
We cannot guarantee that the steps we have taken to protect our proprietary rights and information will be adequate to deter misappropriation of our intellectual property. In addition, we may not be able to detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property and take appropriate steps to enforce our rights. If third parties infringe or misappropriate our trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade names or other proprietary information, our business could be seriously harmed. In addition, third parties may assert infringement claims against us that we violated their intellectual property rights. These claims, even if not true, could result in significant legal and other costs and may be a distraction to management. In addition, protection of intellectual property in many foreign countries is weaker and less reliable than in the U.S., so if our business further expands into foreign countries, risks associated with protecting our intellectual property will increase.
Our business may be subject to additional obligations to collect and remit sales tax and, any successful action by state, foreign or other authorities to collect additional sales tax could adversely harm our business.
We file sales tax returns in certain states within the U.S. as required by law and certain client contracts for a portion of the sales and marketing services that we provide. We do not collect sales or other similar taxes in other states and many of the states do not apply sales or similar taxes to the vast majority of the services that we provide. However, one or more states could seek to impose additional sales or use tax collection and record-keeping obligations on us. Any successful action by state, foreign or other authorities to compel us to collect and remit sales tax, either retroactively, prospectively or both, could adversely affect our results of operations and business.
34
Risks Related to Our Industry and Other Risks
We are subject to government regulation of direct marketing, which could restrict the operation and growth of our business.
The Federal Trade Commission’s, or FTC’s, telesales rules prohibit misrepresentations of the cost, terms, restrictions, performance or duration of products or services offered by telephone solicitation and specifically addresses other perceived telemarketing abuses in the offering of prizes. Additionally, the FTC’s rules limit the hours during which telemarketers may call consumers. The Federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 contains other restrictions on facsimile transmissions and on telemarketers, including a prohibition on the use of automated telephone dialing equipment to call certain telephone numbers. The Federal Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act of 2003 contains restrictions on the content and distribution of commercial e-mail. A number of states also regulate telemarketing and some states have enacted restrictions similar to these federal laws. In addition, a number of states regulate e-mail and facsimile transmissions. State regulations of telesales, e-mail and facsimile transmissions may be more restrictive than federal laws. Any failure by us to comply with applicable statutes and regulations could result in penalties. There can be no assurance that additional federal or state legislation, or changes in regulatory implementation, or judicial interpretation of existing or future laws would not limit our activities in the future or significantly increase the cost of regulatory compliance.
The demand for sales and marketing services is highly uncertain.
Demand and acceptance of our sales and marketing services is dependent upon companies’ willingness to allow third parties to provide these services. It is possible that these solutions may never achieve broad market acceptance. If the market for our services does not grow or grows more slowly than we anticipate at any time, our business, financial condition and operating results may be materially adversely affected.
Increased government regulation of the Internet could decrease the demand for our services and increase our cost of doing business.
The increasing popularity and use of the Internet and online services may lead to the adoption of new laws and regulations in the U.S. or elsewhere covering issues such as online privacy, copyright and trademark, sales taxes and fair business practices or which require qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in certain jurisdictions. Increased government regulation, or the application of existing laws to online activities, could inhibit Internet growth. A number of government authorities are increasingly focusing on online personal data privacy and security issues and the use of personal information. Our business could be adversely affected if new regulations regarding the use of personal information are introduced or if government authorities choose to investigate our privacy practices. In addition, the European Union has adopted directives addressing data privacy that may limit the collection and use of some information regarding Internet users. Such directives may limit our ability to target our clients’ customers or collect and use information. A decline in the growth of the Internet could decrease demand for our services and increase our cost of doing business and otherwise harm our business.
Failure by us to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the rules of the SEC could harm our business and operating results and/or result in a loss of investor confidence in our financial reports, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price.
Based on current SEC rules, we will be required to comply by December 31, 2007 with the management certification and auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. We are in the process of documenting our internal controls systems to allow management to evaluate and report on, and our independent auditors to audit, our internal controls over financial reporting. Once the documentation is complete, we will be performing the system and process evaluation and testing (and any necessary remediation) required to comply. We cannot be certain as to the timing of completion of our evaluation, testing and remediation actions or the impact of the same on our operations. Furthermore, upon completion of this process, we may identify control deficiencies of varying degrees of severity under applicable SEC and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules and regulations that remain unremediated. We are required to report, among other things, control deficiencies that constitute a “material weakness” or changes in internal controls that, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect internal controls over financial reporting. A “material weakness” is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies that results in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected. If we fail to implement the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, we might be subject to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities such as the SEC. In addition, failure to comply with Section 404 or the report by us of a material weakness may cause investors to lose confidence in our consolidated financial statements, and our stock price may be adversely affected as a result. If we fail to remedy any material weakness, our consolidated financial statements may be inaccurate, we may face restricted access to the capital markets and our stock price may be adversely affected.
35
Changes in the accounting treatment of stock options will adversely affect our reported results of operations.
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, announced its decision to require companies to expense employee stock options. The pro forma disclosure that the FASB previously permitted will no longer be an alternative to the financial statement recognition of the expense. We adopted the new accounting pronouncement, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004),Share-Based Payment, beginning on January 1, 2006. This change in accounting practices may adversely affect our fiscal 2007 reported results of operations due to future changes to various assumptions used to determine the fair value of awards issued or the amount and type of equity awards granted, but will have no impact on cash flows.
Terrorist acts and acts of war may harm our business and revenue, costs and expenses, and financial position.
Terrorist acts or acts of war may cause damage to our employees, facilities, clients, our clients’ customers, and vendors, which could significantly impact our revenues, costs and expenses, financial position and results of operations. The potential for future terrorist attacks, the national and international responses to terrorist attacks or perceived threats to national security, and other acts of war or hostility have created many economic and political uncertainties that could adversely affect our business and results of operations in ways that cannot be presently predicted. We are predominantly uninsured for losses and interruptions caused by terrorist acts and acts of war.
Risks Associated with Our Stock
Our charter documents and Delaware law contain anti-takeover provisions that could deter takeover attempts, even if a transaction would be beneficial to our stockholders.
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and certain provisions of Delaware law may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even though an acquisition might be beneficial to our stockholders. For example, our certificate of incorporation provides our board of directors the authority, without stockholder action, to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series. Our board determines when we will issue preferred stock, and the rights, preferences and privileges of any preferred stock. Our certificate of incorporation also provides for a classified board, with each board member serving a staggered three-year term. When our common stock was listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we were subject to various restrictions under California law that prohibited us from having a classified board. Now that our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, we are no longer subject to those restrictions. Accordingly, we implemented a classified board at our 2007 annual meeting of our stockholders. In addition, our bylaws establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder proposals and for nominating candidates for election as directors. Delaware law also contains provisions that can affect the ability of a third party to take over a company. For example, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless certain conditions are met. Section 203 may discourage, delay or prevent an acquisition of our company even at a price our stockholders may find attractive.
Our common stock price may be volatile.
During the year ended December 31, 2006 and through June 30, 2007, the price for our common stock has fluctuated between $2.41 per share and $11.21 per share. The trading price of our common stock may continue to fluctuate widely due to:
| • | | quarter to quarter variations in results of operations; |
| • | | loss of a major client; |
| • | | announcements of technological innovations by us or our competitors; |
| • | | changes in, or our failure to meet, the expectations of securities analysts; |
| • | | new products or services offered by us or our competitors; |
| • | | changes in market valuations of similar companies; |
| • | | announcements of strategic relationships or acquisitions by us or our competitors; |
| • | | other events or factors that may be beyond our control; or |
| • | | dilution resulting from the raising of additional capital. |
In addition, the securities markets in general have experienced extreme price and trading volume volatility in the past. The trading prices of securities of companies in our industry have fluctuated broadly, often for reasons unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies. These general market and industry factors may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance.
36
Our stock price is volatile, and we could face securities class action litigation. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of their stock, many companies have been the subjects of securities class action litigation. If we were sued in a securities class action, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources and could cause our stock price to fall.
We may have difficulty obtaining director and officer liability insurance in acceptable amounts for acceptable rates.
We cannot assure that we will be able to obtain in the future sufficient director and officer liability insurance coverage at acceptable rates and with acceptable deductibles and other limitations. Failure to obtain such insurance could materially harm our financial condition in the event that we are required to defend against and resolve any future securities class actions or other claims made against us or our management. Further, the inability to obtain such insurance in adequate amounts may impair our future ability to retain and recruit qualified officers and directors.
If we fail to meet the Nasdaq Global Market listing requirements, our common stock will be delisted.
Trading of our common stock moved from the Nasdaq Capital Market to the Nasdaq Global Market on January 8, 2007. The Nasdaq Global Market listing requirements are more onerous than the listing requirements for the Nasdaq Capital Market. If we experience losses from our operations, are unable to raise additional funds or our stock price does not meet minimum standards, we may not be able to maintain the standards for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market, which include, among other things, that our common stock maintain a minimum closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share (subject to applicable grace and cure periods). If, as a result of the application of such listing requirements, our common stock is delisted from the Nasdaq Global Market, our stock would become harder to buy and sell. Consequently, if we were removed from the Nasdaq Global Market, the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to sell or make a market in our common stock might decline. As a result, the ability to resell shares of our common stock could be adversely affected.
Our directors, executive officers and their affiliates own a significant percentage of our common stock and can significantly influence all matters requiring stockholder approval.
As of June 30, 2007, our directors, executive officers and entities affiliated with them together beneficially control approximately 11.4% of our outstanding shares. As a result, these stockholders, acting together, may have the ability to disproportionately influence all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of all directors, and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. Accordingly, such concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company, which, in turn, could depress the market price of our common stock.
Shares eligible for sale in the future could negatively affect our stock price.
The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales of a large number of shares of our common stock or the perception that these sales could occur. This might also make it more difficult for us to raise funds through the issuance of securities. As of June 30, 2007, we had 18,894,341 outstanding shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2007, there were an aggregate of 2,831,582 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, including 1,737,964 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of options outstanding under our option plan and 1,093,618 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the outstanding warrants issued to the investors in our private placement transactions completed on February 7, 2006, June 15, 2005 and February 20, 2004. As of June 30, 2007, we also have a total of 509,518 shares issued pursuant to restricted stock awards granted to certain employees. These restricted shares will become available for public sales subject to the respective employees continued employment with the company over vesting periods of not more than four years. As of June 30, 2007, under our existing stock option plan and employee stock purchase plan, we may issue up to an additional 829,466 shares and 595,326 shares of our common stock, respectively, subject to the terms and conditions of such plans. We may issue and/or register additional shares, options, or warrants in the future in connection with acquisitions, compensation or otherwise. In addition, shares issued in connection with our acquisition of ViewCentral will be available for sale upon the lapse of contractual lock-ups as follows: 304,737 shares on September 15, 2007. In addition, up to 145,493 shares issued in connection with our acquisition of ViewCentral will be released from escrow restrictions on September 15, 2007.
On April 25, 2007, we completed a follow-on public offering of our stock in which we issued 3,500,000 additional shares.
On July 19, 2007, we completed a Stock Purchase Agreement with the shareholders of Qinteraction Limited. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued $4.5 million in Rainmaker common stock representing 559,284
37
shares based on the average closing stock price for the 5 trading days immediately preceding the closing. Such shares are initially subject to a contractual prohibition of sale with shares available for sale from closing as follows: 241,890 shares will be available for public sale after 6 months, 292,226 shares will be available for public sale after one year, and 25,168 shares will be available for public sale after 15 months, subject to certain post-closing conditions and potential adjustments.
