EXHIBIT 99.1
Report of Independent Auditors
The Board of Directors
Cerberian, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Cerberian, Inc. (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cerberian, Inc. as of September 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Cerberian, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2, the Company is in a negative working capital position, has incurred operating losses since inception, expects to incur further losses, and will be required to obtain additional capital to sustain its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters also are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Cerberian Inc. (the “Company”) was founded in 2000 as a Utah corporation and later incorporated as a Delaware corporation on January 9, 2001. The Company provides employee internet management products that enable businesses to analyze, report and manage how their employees use workplace computing resources, including internet access, instant messaging, peer-to-peer file sharing, network bandwidth and desktop applications. The Company’s Cerberian Web Manager Solution supports an organization’s efforts to improve employee productivity, conserve network bandwidth, mitigate potential legal liability, and enhance network security.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts and disclosures reported in the accompanying financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents totaled $1,073 as of December 31, 2003. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2004 or December 31, 2002.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company records its trade receivables at sales value and specific reserves are established for specific customer accounts, as collection problems become known or occur due to insolvency, disputes or other collection issues. The amounts of these specific reserves are estimated by management based on the customer’s financial position, age of the customer’s receivables, changes in payment schedules and reasons for any disputes. The allowance for doubtful accounts is charged with the write-off of uncollectible customer accounts whether due to insolvency, settlement or disputes. The Company did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 or December 31, 2002.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation, amortization, and impairment charges. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets; which range from 1 to 7 years for furniture and fixtures, 1 to 4 years for computer equipment, 3 years for software and 5 years for leasehold improvements. Assets held under capital lease obligations are amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or their respective lease lives.
Deferred Financing Costs
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of debt are included in deferred financing costs, net of accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated using the effective interest method over the respective original term of the applicable debt. As of September 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, deferred financing costs, net of accumulated amortization, were $32,566, $42,283 and $8,094, respectively. Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs was $9,717, $7,061 and $1,062 during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of. Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, 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 the 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 in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and depreciation ceases. There were no impairments of long-lived assets recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 or the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002.
Revenue Recognition
The Company has adopted American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position No. 97-2,Software Revenue Recognition (SOP 97-2) as amended by SOP 98-9. These statements provide guidance for recognizing revenue related to sales by software vendors.
Filtering and Reporting
The Company sells Cerberian Web Manager (CWM) on a subscription basis. CWM is sold directly to end-users as well as through Original Equipment Manufacturer Partners (OEM Partners). A subscription is generally 12, 15, 24 or 36 months in duration and for a fixed number of users. In certain instances, subscriptions are on a month-to-month basis.
Upon entering into a subscription arrangement, the Company invoices customers. Generally, payment is due for the full term of the subscription within 30 days of invoicing. The Company recognizes revenue on a monthly straight-line basis over the term of the subscription agreement. The Company records amounts billed to customers in excess of recognizable revenue as deferred revenue in the accompanying balance sheets.
Engineering and Certification Fees
In connection with integrating Cerberian Web Manager with the equipment of its OEM Partners, the Company charges certain engineering and certification fees to its OEM Partners. These fees are recognized on a monthly straight-line basis over the term of the respective OEM Partner license agreement. Upon entering into such a license agreement, the Company invoices its OEM Partners. Generally, payment is due upon completion of the related integration or certification. The Company recognizes revenue on a monthly straight-line basis over the term of the license agreement. The Company records amounts billed to customers in excess of recognizable revenue as deferred revenue in the accompanying balance sheets.

Revenue Recognition (continued)
Technology Licensing
During January 2004, the Company entered into a Source Code Licensing Agreement and a Hosting Agreement with a technology manufacturer (Source Code Partner) whereby the Company granted the Source Code Partner a perpetual license to certain of its proprietary technology and agreed to host the Source Code Partner’s filtering service through July 2005. In exchange for the perpetual license grant and hosting services to be provided, the Company is to receive fees totaling $1,500,000 (Source Code Fee) and $500,000 (Hosting Fee) related to these services, respectively. The Source Code Fee and Hosting Fee are to be held in escrow and released to the Company on specified dates through June 2005. As of September 30, 2004, $200,000 and $300,000 related to Source Codes Fees and Hosting Fees remain in escrow, respectively.
Hosting Fees are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the Hosting Agreement which is from January 2004 through July 2005, and are included in filtering and reporting revenues in the accompanying statements of operations. Source Code Fees are recognized over the period beginning with the delivery of the source code to the Source Code Partner (May 26, 2004) and ending upon the termination of all obligations of the Company to provide support or Hosting Services to the Source Code Partner (July 2005). Revenue related to Source Code Fees is recorded as technology licensing revenues in the accompanying statements of operations.
Computer Software Costs
In accordance with SFAS No. 86,Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, costs are capitalized, when significant, in the development of specific computer software products after establishment of technological feasibility and marketability. There have been no such costs capitalized to date as the costs incurred during the period between technological feasibility and general release have not been significant.
Research and Development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Employee Savings Plan
The Company has a 401(k) plan that allows employees to defer up to 15% of their income and provides for the matching of participant contributions at the Company’s discretion.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The recorded amounts for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The fair value of amounts outstanding under the Company’s other debt instruments approximate their recorded values in all material respects, as determined by discounting future cash flows at current market interest rates as of September 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, as set forth in SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, utilizing currently enacted tax rates. The effect of any future change in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the change occurs.
Concentration of Business and Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Risks associated with cash and cash equivalents are mitigated by banking with federally insured creditworthy institutions. In the normal course of business, the Company provides unsecured credit terms to its customers. Accordingly, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for possible losses as considered necessary by management.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 150,Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. This statement clarifies the definition of a liability, as currently defined under FASB Concepts Statement No. 6Elements of Financial Statements, as well as other items. The statement requires that financial instruments that embody an obligation of an issuer be classified as a liability. Furthermore, the standard provides guidance for the initial and subsequent measurement as well as disclosure requirements of these financial instruments. This statement is effective for financial instruments entered into after December 15, 2004. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition other than a reclassification of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock to a liability and the associated dividend to interest expense.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149,Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement amends and clarifies the financial accounting and reporting requirements, as were originally established in SFAS No. 133, for derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS No. 149 provides greater clarification of the characteristics of a derivative instrument so that contracts with similar characteristics will be accounted for consistently. This statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, as well as for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003, excluding certain implementation issues that have been effective prior to this date under SFAS No. 133. The adoption of this statement has not had a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

2. Basis of Presentation
The Company’s financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is able to continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company experienced net losses of $2,341,893, $3,683,293 and $2,863,155 during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company also used net cash in operations of $982,196, $2,972,789 and $2,090,420 during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company also had negative working capital of $3,148,262, $867,540 and $868,013 as of September 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The loss, cash usage and negative working capital were the result of product development, sales and marketing efforts and the costs associated with the development of the Company’s data centers. Management believes that the Company will continue to incur losses for the remainder of 2004 and possibly 2005.
Effective July 16, 2004, the Company entered into a merger agreement with Blue Coat Systems, Inc. (Blue Coat) whereby the Company will become, upon closing, a wholly owned subsidiary of Blue Coat. The purchase price of the Company was $17,500,000. The closing occurred on November 16, 2004. The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon Blue Coat’s willingness to continue to finance its operations in the future. Management believes that the Company will be able to secure adequate financing from Blue Coat through 2004 and 2005. Any substantial inability to secure additional funding and to achieve the operating results outlined in the current business plan could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, liquidity or results of operations. All these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments, including those related to the classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities, which might result from the outcome of the aforementioned uncertainties

12. Stock Option Plan (continued)
The Company continues to account for stock-based compensation using the method prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, under which no compensation expense for stock options is recognized for stock option awards granted to employees with exercise prices at or above fair market value. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123. If stock option grants awarded under the Company’s stock option plan had been expensed in accordance with the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net loss available to common shareholders would have been changed to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

Pro forma | | | (2,566,876 | ) | | | (3,798,695 | ) | | | (2,871,899 | ) |
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002.

Risk-free interest rate | | 4.19 | % | | 3.94 | % | | 4.64 | % |
Volatility | | 100 | % | | 100 | % | | 100 | % |
Dividend yield | | 0 | % | | 0 | % | | 0 | % |
The weighted average grant date fair value for the options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 were as follows:
| | | | | | |
| | 2004
| | 2003

Range of exercise prices | | $0.16 | | $0.16-$0.67 | | $0.66-$0.67 |
Weighted average fair value | | $0.09 | | $0.10 | | $0.36 |
During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors modified the stock option grants of certain members of management of the Company as well as for two of its independent board members to allow for 100% vesting of those options upon the occurrence of a change of control. Each of these options previously allowed for 50% vesting of the unvested portion of the options upon the occurrence of a change of control. Furthermore, the Company’s Board of Directors also modified the stock option grant to one of its independent board members to reduce the exercise price of that grant from $.67 per share to $.16 share. As a result of these modifications, the Company recorded an expense totaling $34,546 which represents the difference between the exercise price of those options and the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock on the date of the modification.
