1. Organization

Kenexa Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) commenced operations in 1987 as a provider of recruiting services to a wide variety of industries. In 1993, the Company offered its first automated talent management system. Between 1994 and 2007, the Company acquired 27 businesses that enable it to offer comprehensive human capital management, or HCM, services integrated with web-based technology.

The Company began its operations in 1987 under its predecessor companies, Insurance Services, Inc., or ISI, and International Holding Company, Inc., or IHC, in 1987. In December 1999, the Company reorganized its corporate structure by merging ISI and IHC with and into Raymond Karsan Associates, Inc., or RKA, a Pennsylvania corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Raymond Karsan Holdings, Inc., or RKH, a Pennsylvania corporation. Each of RKA and RKH were newly created to consolidate the businesses of ISI and IHC. In April 2000, the Company changed its name to TalentPoint, Inc. and changed the name of RKA to TalentPoint Technologies, Inc. In November 2000, the Company changed its name to Kenexa Corporation and changed the name of TalentPoint Technologies, Inc. to Kenexa Technology, Inc., or Kenexa Technology. Currently, Kenexa transacts business primarily through Kenexa Technology. The Company operates in one segment.

The Company provides software, services and proprietary content that enable organizations to more effectively recruit and retain employees. Its solutions are built around a suite of easily configurable software applications that automate talent acquisition and employee performance management best practices. In addition, the Company offers the software applications that form the core of its solutions on an on-demand basis, which materially reduces the costs and risks associated with deploying traditional enterprise applications, and is complemented by software applications with tailored combinations of outsourcing services, consulting services and proprietary content based on the Company’s 20 years of experience assisting clients in addressing their human resource requirements.

Since its initial public offering in June 2005, the Company has completed eight acquisitions and two follow-on offerings, with aggregate net proceeds to the company of approximately $200,000.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or eliminated. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2007 or for any other interim period.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Kenexa Corporation and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with remaining maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase.

Financial Instruments

Short term investments consist of investments with original maturities of greater than three months and remaining maturities of less than one year. Investments with maturities beyond one year are classified as short-term based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment in cash that is available for current operations. All cash and short term investments are classified as available for sale and are recorded at market value; unrealized gains and losses (excluding other-than-temporary impairments) are reflected in other comprehensive income. Short term investments consist of tax free municipal bonds with credit ratings of AA or higher.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets

Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist primarily of prepaid software maintenance agreements, deferred implementation costs, insurance and other current assets. Deferred implementation costs represent internal payroll and other costs incurred in connection with the customization of the sites associated with internet hosting arrangements. These costs are deferred over the implementation period, typically three to four months, and are expensed ratably over the subscription period, typically one to three years. These amounts aggregated $926 and $985 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The current portion of these deferred costs of $259 and $636 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, is included in other current assets and the non-current portion of $667 and $349 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Other assets consists primarily of cash held in escrow for acquisitions. These amounts will remain in other assets until the escrow term lapses after which, if there are no claims to the escrow balance, the amounts will be included in goodwill as additional purchase consideration. At September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 these amounts were $14,568 and $12,958, respectively.

Software Developed for Internal Use

In accordance with EITF 00-3, “Application of AICPA Statement of Position 97-2 to Arrangements That Include the Right to Use Software Stored on Another Entity’s Hardware”, the Company applies AICPA Statement of Position No. 98-1,Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. The costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, will be capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. The Company also capitalizes costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality. Maintenance and training cost are expensed as incurred. Internal use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life, generally three years. Management evaluates the useful lives of these assets on an annual basis and tests for impairments whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. There were no impairments to internal software in any of the periods covered in this report.

The Company capitalized internal-use software costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and the year ended December 31, 2006 of $597, $1,305 and $1,954, respectively. Amortization of capitalized internal-use software costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and the year ended December 31, 2006 were $251, $878 and $1,291, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives its revenue from two sources: (1) subscription revenue for solutions, which is comprised of subscription fees from clients accessing our on-demand software, consulting services, outsourcing services and proprietary content, and from clients purchasing additional support beyond the standard support that is included in the basic subscription fee; and (2) other fees for discrete professional services. Because the Company provides its solution as a service, the Company follows the provisions of Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101,Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, as amended by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104,Revenue Recognition. On August 1, 2003, the Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-21,Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following conditions are met:

•

There is persuasive evidence of an arrangement;

•

The service has been provided to the client;

•

The collection of the fees is probable; and

•

The amount of fees to be paid by the client is fixed or determinable.

Subscription fees and support revenues are recognized ratably on a monthly basis over the hosting period. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and in deferred revenue or revenue, depending on whether the revenue recognition criteria have been met.

Discrete professional services and other revenues, when sold with subscription and support offerings, are accounted for separately since these services have value to the customer on a stand-alone basis and there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value of the delivered elements. The Company’s arrangements do not contain general rights of return. Additionally, when professional services are sold with other elements, the consideration from the revenue arrangement is allocated among the separate elements based upon the relative fair value. Professional services and other revenues are recorded as follows: Consulting revenues are recognized upon completion of the contracts that are of short duration (generally less than 60 days) and as the services are rendered for contracts of longer duration.

(All amounts in thousands, except share and per share data, unless noted otherwise)

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

In determining whether revenues from professional services can be accounted for separately from subscription revenue, the Company considers the following factors for each agreement: availability from other vendors, whether objective and reliable evidence of fair value exists of the undelivered elements, the nature and the timing of when the agreement was signed in comparison to the subscription agreement start date and the contractual dependence of the subscription service on the client’s satisfaction with the other services. If the professional service does not qualify for separate accounting, the Company recognizes the revenue ratably over the remaining term of the subscription contract. In these situations the Company defers the direct and incremental costs of the professional service over the same period as the revenue is recognized.

Deferred revenue represents payments received or accounts receivable from the Company’s clients for amounts billed in advance of subscription services being provided.

The Company records “Out-of-Pocket” Expenses Incurred (“EITF 01-14”), which requires that reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses be classified as other revenue and not as cost reductions. Before the effective date of EITF 01-14, out-of-pocket reimbursements from clients were netted with the applicable costs. These items primarily include travel, meals and certain telecommunication costs. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, reimbursed expenses totaled $868, $2,361, $495 and $1,087, respectively.

Self-Insurance

The Company is self-insured for the majority of its health insurance costs, including claims filed and claims incurred but not reported subject to certain stop-loss provisions. The Company estimated the liability based upon management’s judgment and historical experience. At September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, self-insurance accruals totaled $428 and $340, respectively. Management continuously reviews the adequacy of the Company’s stop-loss insurance coverage. Material differences may result in the amount and timing of insurance expense if actual experience differs significantly from management’s estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. Credit risk arising from receivables is mitigated due to the large number of clients comprising the Company’s client base and their dispersion across various industries. The clients are concentrated primarily in the Company’s U.S. market area. At September 30, 2007, there were no clients that represented more than 10% of the net accounts receivable balance. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 there were no clients that individually exceeded 10% of the Company’s revenues.

Cash balances are maintained at several banks. Accounts located in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $100. Certain operating cash accounts may exceed the FDIC limits.

Earnings Per Share

The Company follows SFAS 128, “Earnings Per Share.” Under SFAS 128, companies that are publicly held or have complex capital structures are required to present basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. In the calculation of diluted earnings per share, shares outstanding are adjusted to assume conversion of the Company’s non-interest bearing convertible stock and the exercise of options and warrants if they are dilutive. In the calculation of basic earnings per share, weighted average numbers of shares outstanding are used as the denominator. The computation of common stock equivalents excluded options to purchase 557,000 and 494,000 shares of common stock, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively as their effect was antidilutive. Options to purchase shares of comon stock and Restricted Stock Units (“ RSUs”) included in computation of common stock equivalents for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 totaled 391,101 and 413,720, respectively.

Share-based compensation

On January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123R using the Modified Prospective Approach (“MPA”). The MPA requires that compensation expense be recorded for restricted stock and all unvested stock options as of January 1, 2006. Since the adoption we continue to recognize the cost of previously granted share-based awards on a straight-line basis and recognize the cost for new share-based awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2007, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Interpretation No. 48,Accounting for Income Tax Uncertainties (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertain income tax positions recognized in financial statements and requires the impact of a tax position to be recognized in the financial statements if that position is more likely than not of being sustained by the taxing authority. As of December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2007, we had an insignificant amount of unrecognized tax benefits, none of which would materially affect our effective tax rate if recognized. We do not expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months. Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits in provision for income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations. The amount of interest and penalties for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was insignificant. Tax years beginning in 2004 are subject to examination by taxing authorities, although net operating loss and credit carryforwards from all years are subject to examinations and adjustments for at least three years following the year in which the attributes are used.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair-value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. Under SFAS No. 157, fair-value measurements would be separately disclosed by level within the fair-value hierarchy. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In November 2005, the FASB issued FSP FAS 123(R)-3, Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards, to provide an alternative approach of accounting for the tax effects of employee share-based awards. We have elected to adopt the alternative transition method provided in FSP FAS 123(R)-3 for calculating the tax effects of share-based compensation pursuant to SFAS 123(R). The alternative transition method includes simplified methods to establish the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool (APIC pool) related to the tax effects of employee share-based compensation, and to determine the subsequent impact on the APIC pool and consolidated statements of cash flows of the tax effects of employee share-based compensation awards that are outstanding upon the adoption of SFAS 123(R).

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. SFAS 123R also establishes fair value as the measurement method in accounting for share-based payments. The FASB required the provisions of SFAS 123R be adopted for interim or annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. In April 2005, the SEC adopted a new rule amending the compliance dates for SFAS 123R for public companies. In accordance with this rule, we adopted SFAS 123R effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective transition method. We did not modify the terms of any previously granted options in anticipation of the adoption of SFAS 123R.

The application of the provisions of SFAS 123R resulted in a pretax expense of approximately $2,959 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Based on the same assumptions used to value our 2006 compensation expense, we estimate our pretax expense associated with our share-based compensation plans will approximate $4,120 in 2007 and $4,175 in 2008.

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 the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, including cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable at September 30, 2007 and 2006 approximate fair value of these instruments.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

3. Acquisitions

The escrow agreement will remain in place for one year from the acquisition date, and any funds remaining in the escrow account at the end of the one year period will be distributed to the former stockholders of Psychometric Services Ltd. The purchase price has been allocated on a preliminary basis to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon management’s best estimate of fair value with any excess over the net tangible and intangible assets acquired allocated to goodwill. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 141 the purchase price and related purchase price allocation may be updated to reflect changes such as any additional transaction fees or the valuation of certain assets acquired or liabilities assumed.

BrassRing

On November 13, 2006, the Company acquired BrassRing, LLC, a provider of talent management solutions, combining innovative technology, consulting, and outsourcing with recruitment expertise to build successful workforces to meet the specific needs of clients, for approximately $114,708 in cash. The total cost of the acquisition, including legal, accounting, and other professional fees of $3,082, was approximately $117,790. On the date of close, approximately $11,500 or 10% of the aggregate purchase price was deposited into an escrow account to cover any claims for indemnification made by the Company against BrassRing under the acquisition agreement. Assuming there are no indemnification claims, this amount will be released to the former stockholders of BrassRing on or about May 13, 2008.

BrassRing’s results of operations were included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements beginning on November 13, 2006.

The purchase price was allocated as follows:


Description	Amount		Amortization period
Assets acquired
Cash and cash equivalents	$	10,567
Accounts receivable		6,495
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		1,500
Property & equipment		1,776

3. Acquisitions (Continued)

The purchase price has been allocated on a preliminary basis to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon management’s best estimate of fair value with any excess over the net tangible and intangible assets acquired allocated to goodwill. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 141, the purchase price and related purchase price allocation may be updated to reflect changes such as any additional transaction fees or the valuation of certain assets acquired or liabilities assumed. The estimated fair values of the intangibles assets are further described below. Contract-related assets, technology-related assets, and net operating loss tax attributes are being amortized over their estimated useful lives. Goodwill is not amortized but is periodically evaluated for impairment.

The valuation of contract-related assets in the amount of $416, which relates to BrassRing’s current customer portfolio, was determined based upon estimated discounted incremental future cash flow to be received as a result of these relationships.

Goodwill from the acquisition resulted from our belief that the recruiter products developed by BrassRing will be complementary to our Kenexa Recruiter product offerings and will help us remain competitive in the talent acquisition market. The goodwill from the BrassRing acquisition will not be deductible for tax purposes.

If the BrassRing acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2006, the unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 would have been:


	For the three months ended September 30, 2006		For the nine months ended September 30, 2006
Revenue	$	37,276	$	104,396
Net income	$	3,384	$	9,070

The total cost of the acquisition, including estimated legal, accounting, other professional fees of $46, was approximately $7,168. The payment of additional consideration by the Company was based upon the annual revenues of Gantz Wiley Research through December 31, 2006.

In connection with the acquisition, $600 of the cash portion of the purchase price was deposited into an escrow account to cover any claims for indemnification made by the Company against Gantz Wiley Research under the acquisition agreement. As of September 30, 2007 the remaining funds held in escrow have not been released. Following the resolution of any outstanding claims the funds remaining in the escrow account will be distributed to the former stockholder of Gantz Wiley Research. The purchase price has been allocated on a preliminary basis to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon management’s best estimate of fair value with any excess over the net tangible and intangible assets acquired allocated to goodwill. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 141 the purchase price and related purchase price allocation may be updated to reflect changes such as any additional transaction fees or the valuation of certain assets acquired or liabilities assumed.

6. Line of Credit

On November 13, 2006, the Company entered into a new secured credit agreement with PNC Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, in connection with its acquisition of BrassRing (the “Credit Agreement”). The new Credit Agreement increased the maximum amount available under the facility from $25,000 to $75,000, consisting of (i) a $25,000 revolving credit facility, including a sublimit of up to $2,000 for letters of credit, and (ii) a $50,000 term loan. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of its subsidiaries. This credit facility replaced the prior $25,000 revolving credit facility also with PNC Bank, N.A. As of December 31, 2006, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $65,000 from the credit facility with a weighted average interest rate of 7.9% per annum.

In January 2007, the Company repaid the balance of its obligations relating to the term loan portion of the Credit Agreement with the net proceeds from the Company’s public offering of its common stock in January 2007.

On March 26, 2007, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) with PNC Bank, N.A. The Amendment increased the maximum amount available under the revolving credit facility portion of the Credit Agreement from $25,000 to $50,000, including a sublimit of up to $2,000 for letters of credit. In connection with the Amendment the Company wrote off deferred financing fees of $447. The Amendment provides that the Credit Agreement will terminate, and all borrowings will become due and payable, on March 26, 2010. The Company and each of the U.S. subsidiaries of Kenexa Technology are guarantors of the obligations of Technology under the Credit Agreement, as amended by the Amendment.

The Company’s borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at tiered rates based upon the ratio of Net Funded Debt to Modified EBITDA Ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Company may also elect interest rates on its borrowings calculated by reference to (i) the higher of PNC’s prime rate or the current Federal Funds rate plus¹/2% (the “Base Rate”), or (ii) the Eurodollar rate (the “Eurodollar Rate”), in either case plus a margin based upon the ratio of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries Net Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio. Interest is payable quarterly for Base Rate loans and at the end of the applicable interest period for Eurodollar Rate loans. Eurodollar Rate advances will be available for periods of 1, 2, 3, 6 or, if available to all lenders under the Credit Agreement, 9 or 12 months. Eurodollar Rate pricing will be adjusted for any statutory reserves.

Repayment of amounts outstanding under certain notes payable and all issued or issuable shares of common and preferred stock are subordinated to the rights of the lender under terms of the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement contains various terms and covenants that provide for restrictions on capital expenditures, payment of dividends, dispositions of assets, investments and acquisitions and require the Company, among other things, to maintain minimum levels of tangible net worth, net income and fixed charge coverage. The Company was compliant with all suchcovenants at September 30, 2007.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

We are involved in claims, which arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, we have made adequate provision for potential liabilities, if any, arising from any such matters. However, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and the costs and other effects of pending or future litigation, governmental investigations, legal and administrative cases and proceedings (whether civil or criminal), settlements, judgments and investigations, claims and changes in any such matters, and developments or assertions by or against us relating to intellectual property rights and intellectual property licenses, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

8. Equity

On January 18, 2007, the Company completed a public offering of 3,750,000 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $31.86 per share. Net proceeds to the Company aggregated approximately $113,298 after payment of all offering fees and underwriters’ commission and offering expenses of $6,177. On January 24, 2007, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option under the terms of the underwriting agreement to purchase 562,500 additional shares of common stock. Net proceeds to the Company following the sale of the overallotment shares were $17,100.

9. Stock Plans

Employee Stock Option Plan

The Company’s 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Option Plan”), which was adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) in March 2005 and was approved by the Company’s shareholders in June 2005, provides for the granting of stock options to employees and directors at the discretion of the Board or a committee of the Board. The 2005 Option Plan replaced the Company’s 2000 Stock Option Plan (the “2000 Option Plan”). The purpose of stock options is to recognize past services rendered and to provide additional incentive in furthering the continued success of the Company. Stock options granted under both the 2005 Option Plan and the 2000 Stock Option Plan expire between the fifth and tenth anniversary of the date of grant and generally vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant. Unexercised stock options may expire up to 90 days after an employee’s termination.

As of September 30, 2007, there were options and Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) to purchase 1,670,095 shares of common stock outstanding under the 2005 Option Plan. The Company is authorized to issue up to an aggregate of 4,842,910 shares of its common stock pursuant to stock options granted under the 2005 Option Plan. As of September 30, 2007, there were a total of 2,634,346 shares of common stock not subject to outstanding options and RSUs and available for issuance under the 2005 Option Plan.

SFAS 123R requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. In 2007 and 2006, the fair value of each grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Expected volatility was based upon a weighted average of peer companies, comparable indices, and the Company’s stock volatility. The expected life was determined based upon an average of the contractual life and vesting period of the options. The estimated forfeiture rate was based upon an analysis of historical data. The risk-free rate was based on U.S. Treasury zero coupon bond yields at the time of grant. The following table provides the assumptions used in determining the fair value of the share-based awards for the quarters ended September 30, 2007, June 30, 2007 and March 31, 2007 and the year ended December 31, 2006, respectively.


	September 30, 2007		June 30, 2007		March 31, 2007		Year ended December 31, 2006
Expected volatility	48.41	%	47.26	%	47.70	%	39.50 – 41.98	%
Expected dividends	0		0		0		0
Expected term (in years)	4		4-5		4		4-5
Risk-free rate	4.11		4.60		4.46		4.60 – 5.13	%

A summary of the status of the Company’s stock options and RSUs as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and changes during the period then ended is as follows:


	Options & RSUs Outstanding						Options Exercisable
	Shares available for grant		Shares		Wtd. avg. exercise price		Shares	Wtd. avg. exercise price

The total intrinsic value of options outstanding, exercisable and exercised as of and for the period ended September 30, 2007 was $18,292, $3,883 and $3,412, respectively. The weighted average fair value of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and the year ended December 31, 2006 was $15.06 and $11.05, respectively.

Nonvested at September 30, 2007	1,427,700		$	10.68

Between January 1, 2007 and September 30, 2007, the Company granted options to certain employees to purchase an aggregate of 531,400 shares of the Company’s common stock at a weighted exercise price of $35.49 per share. The Company granted the options at prevailing market prices ranging from $31.46 to $36.87 per share.

On August 14, 2007, the Company granted to each non-employee member of the Board of Directors 2,700 Restricted Stock Units, or an aggregate of 16,200 Restricted Stock Units, which will remain unvested until the date immediately preceding the Company’s 2008 annual meeting of shareholders, provided that such non-employee director has maintained continuous service on the Board of Directors through such date. The grant date fair value of these RSUs was $31.46.

Between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2006, the Company granted options to certain employees to purchase an aggregate of 316,333 shares of the Company’s common stock at a weighted exercise price of $25.24 per share.

As of September 30, 2007, there was $9,749 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the 2005 Option Plan and the 2000 Option Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3 years.

SFAS No. 123R also requires us to change the classification of any tax benefits realized upon exercise of stock options in excess of that which is associated with the expense recognized for financial reporting purposes. These amounts are presented as a financing cash inflow and a corresponding operating cash outflow in our consolidated statement of cash flows.

In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, we classified share-based compensation within cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development corresponding to the same line as the cash compensation paid to respective employees, officers and non-employee directors.

The following table shows total share-based compensation expense included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations:


	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2007		2006		2007		2006

9. Stock Plans (Continued)

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which was approved May 2006, enables substantially all of the Company’s U.S. and foreign employees to purchase shares of our common stock at a discounted offering price. The offering price is 95% of the closing market price of our common stock on the NASDAQ National Market, LLC on the offering date. 500,000 shares of common stock are available to our employees for purchase under the Plan. The Plan is not considered a compensatory plan in accordance with SFAS 123(R) and requires no compensation expense to be recognized. 5,195 shares of our common stock were purchased under the employee stock purchase plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

10. Related Party

One of the Company’s directors, Barry M. Abelson, is a partner in the law firm of Pepper Hamilton LLP. This firm has represented the Company since 1997. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company paid Pepper Hamilton LLP, net of insurance coverage, $50 and $1,335, $92 and $1,446, respectively, for general legal matters. The amount payable to Pepper Hamilton as of September 30, 2007 was $120.

11. Income Taxes

The Company’s tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective rate. The 2007 effective tax rate is estimated to be lower than the 35% statutory rate primarily due to anticipated earnings in subsidiaries outside the U.S. in jurisdictions where the effective rate is lower than in the U.S. Included in tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 are research and development tax credits totaling approximately $822, for research and development activities performed from 2003 to 2005.

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). As of January 1, 2007 unrecognized tax benefits totaled $234 which was recorded as a purchase price adjustment and an increase to goodwill. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, our tax liabilities increased $14 which was expensed to tax expense for nine months ended September 30, 2007.

We recognize interest and penalties related to our tax liabilities as other income tax expense. Our January 1, 2007, tax liabilities include $89 of interest related to the adoption of FIN 48.

It is not expected that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next 12 months, however, the Company does not expect any change to have a significant impact on the results of operations or financial position of the Company.

1. Overview

We provide software, services and proprietary content that enable organizations to more effectively recruit and retain employees. Our solutions are built around a suite of easily configurable software applications that automate talent acquisition and employee performance management best practices. We offer the software applications that form the core of our solutions on an on-demand basis, which materially reduces the costs and risks associated with deploying traditional enterprise applications. We complement our software applications with tailored combinations of outsourcing services, consulting services and proprietary content based on our 20 years of experience assisting clients in addressing their human resource requirements. Together, our software applications and services form solutions that we believe enable our clients to improve the effectiveness of their talent acquisition programs, increase employee productivity and retention, measure key HR metrics and make their talent acquisition and employee performance management programs more efficient.

Since 1999, we have focused on providing talent acquisition and employee performance management solutions on a subscription basis and currently generate a significant portion of our revenue from these subscriptions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, revenue from these subscriptions comprised approximately 81.9% and 80.2% respectively, of our total revenue. We generate the remainder of our revenue from discrete professional services that are not provided as part of an integrated solution on a subscription basis. These subscription-based solutions provide us with a recurring revenue stream and we believe represent a more compelling opportunity in terms of growth and profitability than discrete professional services. As a result, since 1999 discrete professional services have represented a consistently decreasing percentage of our revenue. We expect that trend to continue.

We sell our solutions to large and medium-sized organizations through our direct sales force. As of June 30, 2007, we had a client base of approximately 3,000 companies, including approximately 174 companies on the Fortune 500 list. Our client base includes companies that we billed for services during the year ended December 31, 2006 and does not necessarily indicate an ongoing relationship with each such client. Our top 80 clients contributed approximately $70.8 million, or 53.94%, of our total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

2. Recent Events

On November 8, 2007, our board of directors authorized a stock repurchase plan providing for the repurchase of up to two million shares of our common stock. The timing, price and volume of repurchases will be based on market conditions, relevant securities laws and other factors. The stock repurchases may be made from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The stock repurchase program does not require us to repurchase any specific number of shares, and we may terminate the repurchase program at any time.

On August 20, 2007, we acquired HRC Human Resources Consulting GmbH (“HRC”), a leading consultancy for business-orientated employee surveys, based in Munich, Germany, for a purchase price of approximately $3.8 million in cash. The total cost of the acquisition, including legal, accounting, and other professional fees of $0.1 million, was approximately $3.9 million. The acquisition of HRC provides us with a presence in Germany and enhances our expansion in European countries.

On June 8, 2007, we acquired StraightSource, a provider of recruitment process outsourcing services, based in Dallas, Texas, for a purchase price of approximately $9.0 million in cash and $3.2 million in stock consideration. The total cost of the acquisition was approximately $12.2 million. We expect that the acquisition of StraightSource will provide additional efficiency to our exempt and non-exempt recruitment offering and expand our distribution capabilities in the Southwest market.

On March 26, 2007, we entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement with PNC Bank. The amendment increased the maximum amount available under the revolving credit facility portion of the Credit Agreement from $25 million to $50 million,

including a sublimit of up to $2 million for letters of credit. The amendment provides that the credit agreement will terminate, and all borrowings will become due and payable, on March 26, 2010.

On January 18, 2007, we completed a public offering of 3,750,000 shares of our common stock at a price to the public of $31.86 per share. We also sold an additional 562,500 shares of our common stock to cover over-allotments of shares. Our net proceeds from the offering, after payment of all offering expenses and commissions, aggregated approximately $130.4 million. We repaid all of the outstanding borrowings under our credit facility with a portion of the net proceeds from the offering.

On November 20, 2006, we acquired Psychometric Services Limited (“PSL”), a provider of online and paper-based assessment products, training and consultancy based in the United Kingdom, for approximately $7.5 million in cash and $0.6 million in stock consideration. The total cost of the acquisition, including legal, accounting, and other professional fees of $0.3 million, was approximately $8.4 million. The strategic rationale for acquiring PSL was to add PSL’s library of content and team of psychologists to extend Kenexa’s value proposition and to further differentiate Kenexa from a domain expertise perspective. In addition, we believe that the acquisition of PSL advances Kenexa’s efforts to build its international infrastructure, while adding an attractive customer list of commercial and government entities in the UK.

On November 13, 2006, we entered into a new secured credit facility with PNC Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, in connection with our acquisition of BrassRing. Our obligations under the new credit facility are secured by substantially all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries. This credit facility replaced our prior $25 million revolving credit facility with PNC Bank. Under the terms of the credit facility, we borrowed $75 million on November 13, 2006 to fund our acquisition of BrassRing.

On November 13, 2006, we acquired BrassRing, a provider of talent management solutions, for approximately $114.7 million in cash. The total cost of the acquisition, including legal, accounting, and other professional fees of $3.1 million, was approximately $117.8 million. The strategic rationale for acquiring BrassRing included expansion of opportunities with large, global customers, expansion of global infrastructure and product capabilities, and creation of cross-marketing opportunities with our existing suite of products and services. Additionally, managements industry expertise and experience were also important factors for the acquisition of BrassRing.

On August 14, 2006, we acquired Gantz-Wiley Research, an employee and customer survey data analysis firm based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, for a purchase price including contingent consideration of approximately $3.3 million in cash and $3.8 million in stock consideration. The total cost of the acquisition, including estimated legal, accounting, and other professional fees, was approximately $7.2 million. In addition, the payment of $1.3 million in cash and equity during the first quarter of 2007 to the former shareholder of Gantz-Wiley of additional consideration by the Company was based upon the annual revenues of Gantz-Wiley Research through December 31, 2006. The $1.3 million liability is reflected in the financial statements at December 31, 2006.

On April 10, 2006, we acquired Knowledge Workers Inc., a human capital consulting and technology firm based in Denver Colorado, for approximately $2.5 million in cash. The total cost of the acquisition, including estimated legal, accounting, and other professional fess of $0.1 million, was approximately $2.6 million.

On January 13, 2006, we acquired Webhire for approximately $34.4 million in cash. The total cost of the acquisition, including legal, accounting, and other professional fees of $0.7 million, was approximately $35.1 million. In July 2007, approximately $5.0 million, or 14.3% of the aggregate purchase price, held in an escrow was released to the former stockholders of Webhire. There were no claims for indemnification made by the Company against Webhire under the acquisition agreement. Webhire’s results of operations were included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements beginning on January 1, 2006.

3. Sources of Revenue

We derive revenue primarily from two sources: (1) subscription revenue for our solutions, which is comprised of subscription fees from clients accessing our on-demand software, consulting services, outsourcing services and proprietary content, and from clients purchasing additional support that is not included in the basic subscription fee; and (2) fees for discrete professional services.

Our clients primarily purchase renewable subscriptions for our solutions. The typical term is one to three years, with some terms extending up to five years. The majority of our subscription agreements are not cancelable for convenience although our clients have the right to terminate their contracts for cause if we fail to provide the agreed upon services or otherwise breach the agreement. A client does not generally have a right to a refund of any advance payments if the contract is cancelled. We expect that we will maintain our renewal rate of approximately 90.0% of the aggregate contract value up for renewal for 2007 and 2008. The revenue derived from subscription fees is recognized ratably over the term of the subscription agreement. We generally invoice our clients in advance in monthly or quarterly installments and typical payment terms provide that our clients pay us within 30 days of invoice. Amounts that

have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable prior to the receipt of payment and in deferred revenue to the extent revenue recognition criteria have not been met. As the subscription component of our revenue has grown and clients’ willingness to pay us in advance for their subscriptions has increased, the amount of deferred revenue on our balance sheet has grown at a higher rate than our revenue. As of September 30, 2007, deferred revenue increased to $33.3 million from $31.3 million at December 31, 2006. We generally price our solutions based on the number of software applications and services included and the number of client employees. Accordingly, subscription fees are generally greater for larger organizations and for those that subscribe for a broader array of software applications and services.

A small portion of our clients purchase discrete professional services. These services primarily consist of consulting and training services. In addition, we recognize a small amount of revenue from sales of perpetual software licenses. The revenue from these services and licenses is recognized differently depending on the type of service or license provided as described in greater detail below under “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.

We generate a majority of our revenue from within the United States. Approximately 89.3% and 87.6% of our total revenue was derived from sales in the United States for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. Revenue generated from clients in Germany, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 aggregated to approximately 7.0%. Revenue from other clients amounted to 3.7% and 5.4% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007.

4. Key Performance Indicators

The following tables summarize the key performance indicators that we consider to be material in managing our business, in thousands:


	For the three months ended September 30,						For the nine months ended September 30,
	2007			2006			2007			2006
	(unaudited)			(unaudited)			(unaudited)			(unaudited)

							As of September 30,
							2007			2006
							(unaudited)			(unaudited)
Deferred revenue							$	33,259		$	18,759

The following is a discussion of significant terms used in the tables above.

Subscription revenue as a percentage of total revenue. Subscription revenue as a percentage of total revenue can be derived from our consolidated statement of operations. This performance indicator illustrates the evolution of our business towards subscription-based solutions, which provide us with a recurring revenue stream and which we believe to be a more compelling revenue growth and profitability opportunity. We expect that the percentage of subscription revenue will be in the range of 78-82% of our total revenues through at least 2007.

Net cash provided by operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities is taken from our consolidated statement of cash flows and represents the amount of cash generated by our operations that is available for investing and financing activities. Historically, our net cash provided by operating activities has exceeded our net income primarily due to the positive impact of deferred revenue. We expect this trend to continue because of the advance payment structure of our subscription agreements and because as our sales increase, we expect incremental costs to decline.

Deferred revenue. We generate revenue primarily from multi-year subscriptions for our on-demand talent acquisition and employee performance management solutions. We recognize revenue from these subscription agreements ratably over the hosting period, which are typically one to three years. We generally invoice our clients in quarterly or monthly installments in advance. Deferred revenue, which is included in our consolidated balance sheets, is the amount of invoiced subscriptions in excess of the amount recognized as revenue. Deferred revenue represents, in part, the amount that we will record as revenue in our consolidated statements of operations in future periods. As the subscription component of our revenue has grown and customer willingness to pay us in advance for their subscriptions has increased, the amount of deferred revenue on our balance sheet has grown at a higher rate than our revenue growth rate. We expect this trend to continue.

The following table reconciles beginning and ending deferred revenue for each of the periods shown, in thousands:


	For the year ended December 31,			For the three months ended September 30,						For the nine months ended September 30,

Revenues

Total revenue increased $18.8 million or 67.1% and $58.4 million or 77.2% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006 to $46.8 million and $134.2 million, respectively. Our subscription revenue increased by $15.0 million or 64.9% and $49.2 million or 81.0% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006 to $38.2 million and $109.9 million, respectively. Subscription revenue represented approximately 82.0% of our revenues for three and nine months ended September 30, 2007. The increase in revenues is attributable primarily to an increase in sales volumes of our talent management solutions and the continued acceptance of our on-demand model. The acquisitions of HRC, StraightSource, BrassRing, Gantz-Wiley, PSL and Knowledge Workers comprised approximately 64% of the increase in our total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. Our other revenue increased by $3.7 million or 77.4% and $9.2 million or 61.6% to $8.6 million and $24.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The year- to-date increase was primarily due to an increase in demand for our consulting services resulting from an increase in our subscription-based revenues. For the remainder of the year, we expect subscription based and other revenue to increase from the prior year due to customer acquisitions and additional sales to existing customers as well as the impact of our recent acquisitions.

Cost of Revenue

Our cost of revenue primarily consists of compensation, employee benefits and travel-related expenses for our employees and independent contractors who provide consulting or other professional services to our clients. Additionally, our application hosting costs, amortization of third-party license royalty costs, technical support personnel costs, allocated overhead and reimbursed expenses are also recorded as cost of revenue. Many factors affect our cost of revenue, including changes in the mix of products and services, pricing trends, changes in the amount of reimbursed expenses and fluctuations in our client base. Because cost as a percentage of revenue is higher for professional services than for software products, an increase in the services component of our solutions or an increase in discrete professional services as a percentage of our total revenue would reduce gross profit as a percentage of total revenue. As our business expands, we expect that third-party license royalty costs and personnel costs associated with the delivery of our solutions will continue to fall within a range of approximately 26% to 30% of revenues.

Cost of revenue increased by $5.3 million or 63.3% and $16.3 million or 76.2% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006 to $13.7 million and $37.7 million, respectively. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue decreased by 1.0% to 29.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2007, compared to the same periods in 2006, and was relatively the same for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and the prior year at approximately 28%. The addition of 165 employees as a result of our recent acquisitions contributed approximately $3.2 million and $10.4 million to the cost of revenue increase for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 respectively versus the prior year. Additionally, other consulting and external services needed to support our customer’s requirements added approximately $2.1 million and $5.9 million to the increase for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively versus the prior year.

Sales and Marketing (“S&M”) expense

S&M expense primarily consists of personnel and related costs for employees engaged in sales and marketing, including salaries, commissions and other variable compensation, travel expenses and costs associated with trade shows, advertising and other marketing efforts and allocated overhead. We expense our sales commissions at the time the related revenue is recognized, and we recognize revenue from our subscription agreements ratably over the term of the agreements. Investment in sales and marketing commencing in 2003 resulted in significant revenue growth during 2004 through 2006. We intend to continue to invest in sales and marketing to pursue new clients and expand relationships with existing clients. As a result, although we expect S&M expense to increase in total dollars, we also expect S&M to continue to decrease as a percentage of revenue for the next twelve months.

S&M expense increased $2.8 million or 47.1% and $8.7 million or 50.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006 to $8.8 million and $26.1 million, respectively. Increased staff related expense including performance bonuses and commissions and bad debt expense contributed approximately $1.8 million and $0.1 million, respectively, to the increase in S&M expense during the quarter ended September 30, 2007 from the prior year. In addition, increased travel and other expense added approximately $0.5 million and $0.4 million to the increase in S&M expense during the quarter ended September 30, 2007 from the prior year. The increase in compensation and travel expense was attributable to the addition of 44 employees hired in connection with our acquisitions in the prior year.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, increased staff related expense including performance bonuses and commissions and travel expense contributed of $6.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively, to the increase in S&M expense from the prior year. In addition, bad debt and advertising and fulfillment expense contributed approximately $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively to the increase in S&M expense while other expense increased $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 over the comparable period in the prior year. As a percentage of revenues, S&M expense decreased from 21.4% to 18.8%, and 23.0% to 19.5%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to the same periods in 2006 due to increased revenues.

General and Administrative (“G&A”) expense

G&A expense primarily consists of personnel and related costs for our executive, finance, human resources and administrative personnel, professional fees and other corporate expenses and allocated overhead. As we expand our business and incur additional expenses associated with being a public company, including the costs of compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other regulations governing public companies, we believe that G&A expense will increase in dollar amount and may increase as a percentage of revenue in 2007 and future periods.

G&A expense increased by $3.9 million or 66.8% and $12.1 million and 71.2% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively compared to the same period in 2006 to $9.6 million and $29.1 million, respectively. The $3.9 million increase for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was due primarily to an increase in staff related expenses of $1.0 million related to the addition of 33 employees hired in connection with our acquisitions in the prior year as well as 29 employees needed to support our organic growth. In addition, rent expense, professional fees and office supplies contributed $0.6 million, $0.9 million and $0.2 million, respectively, to the increase in G&A expense for the three months ended September 30, 2007 versus the comparable period in the prior year. The remainder of the increase of $1.2 million was attributable to increases in infrastructure expenses such as phone, supplies, utilities, insurance and other.

The $12.1 million increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was due in part to an increase in staff related expense of $4.8 million related to the addition of 33 employees from our 2006 acquisitions. In addition, rent expense, professional fees and office supplies contributed of $1.7 million, $2.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively, to the increase in G&A expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 versus the comparable period in the prior year. The remainder of the increase of $2.5 million was attributable to increases in infrastructure expenses such as phone, supplies, utilities, insurance and other. As a percentage of revenues, G&A expense remained the same at 20.6%, and decreased from 22.4% to 21.5%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to the same periods in 2006 due to increased revenues.

Research and Development (“R&D”) expense

R&D expense primarily consists of personnel and related costs, including salaries and employee benefits for software engineers, quality assurance engineers, product managers, technical sales engineers and management information systems personnel. Our R&D efforts have been devoted primarily to new product offerings and incidental enhancements and upgrades to our existing products. Our capitalized software includes a small percentage of our R&D expense. Capitalized R&D expense totaled $1.1 million and $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The remaining R&D expense has been expensed as incurred. We expect R&D expense to increase in the future as we employ more personnel to support enhancements of our solutions and new solutions offerings. However, we expect R&D expense to decrease as a percentage of revenue primarily due to increased efficiencies from our global development center.

R&D expense increased by $2.5 million or 112.6% and $7.8 million or 139.4% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively compared to the same period in 2006 to $4.7 million and $13.3 million, respectively. The $2.5 million and $7.8 million increase in R&D for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, was due primarily to the addition of 105 developers hired in connection with our acquisitions in the prior year as well as 6 developers needed to support our broadening and deepening solution suite. As a percentage of revenues, R&D expense increased from 7.9% to 10.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and increased from 7.4% to 9.9%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to the same periods in 2006.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.4 million and $2.8 million or approximately 160.2% and 119.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006 to $2.3 million and $5.2 million, respectively. In the future, we expect depreciation and amortization expense to increase due to recent capital purchases.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense on operations increased by $0.3 million and $4.5 million or approximately 20.9% and 158.6% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006 to $1.7 million and $7.3 million, respectively. The increase in expense was due to increased taxable income. The increase in tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was partially offset by non recurring research and development tax credits totaling approximately $0.8 million, for research and development activities performed from 2003 to 2005.

Interest Income

Interest income increased $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. The $0.3 million or 40.3% increase for the three months ended September 30, 2007 is due to and commensurate with the increase in cash and short term investments over the prior year. The $0.6 million or 38.5% increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 is also due to an increase in cash and short investments for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007 versus the prior period and is net of $0.4 million in interest expense associated with the write-off of a portion of our deferred financing fees from our amended credit facility.

6. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since we were formed in 1987, we have financed our operations primarily through internally generated cash flows, our line of credit and the issuance of preferred and common stock. As of September 30, 2007, we had cash and cash equivalents of $32.1 million and short term investments of $81.6 million. In addition, we had $0.3 million in capital equipment leases.

Our cash provided from operations was $23.0 million and $11.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Cash used in investing activities was $102.1 million and $40.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities was $67.9 million and $68.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 our net decrease in cash and cash equivalents was $10.4 million, resulting primarily from the investment in short term investments, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 our net increase in cash and cash equivalents was $39.6 million resulting from our net proceeds of $66.3 million from our public offering completed in March 2006. We expect this positive cash flow to continue in future periods.

We used approximately $49 million of the net proceeds from our public offering of common stock in January 2007 to repay the balance of our obligations relating to the term loan portion of the Credit Agreement with PNC Bank, N.A

On March 26, 2007, we entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement with PNC Bank, N.A. The Amendment increased the maximum amount available under the revolving credit facility portion of the Credit Agreement from $25 million to $50 million, including a sublimit of up to $2 million for letters of credit. The Amendment provides that the Credit Agreement will terminate, and all borrowings will become due and payable, on March 26, 2010.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $23.0 million and $11.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 primarily resulted from net income of approximately $17.6 million, non-cash charges to net income of $9.0 million and an increase in deferred revenues of $1.9 million, partially offset by an increase in accounts and unbilled receivables of $1.3 million, net changes in working capital of $2.8 million and a $1.4 million reduction for excess tax benefits from share based arrangements. Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 primarily resulted from net income of approximately $10.7 million, non-cash charges to net income of $4.4 million, an increase in deferred revenue of $0.7 million and net changes in working capital of $0.9 million partially offset by an increase in accounts and unbilled receivables of $4.5 million, and a $1.1 million reduction for excess tax benefits from share based arrangements.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $102.1 million and $40.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Cash flows from investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 consisted of the following:


	Nine months September 30,
	2007		2006
	(In millions)
	(unaudited)
Webhire acquisition		—	$	32.2
Knowledge Workers		—	$	2.2
PSL acquisition	$	0.3		—
Gantz Wiley Research acquisition	$	0.6	$	2.7
Brassring acquisition	$	0.2		—
StraightSource acquisition	$	9.0		—
HRC acquisition	$	2.9		—
Purchases of property and equipment	$	7.4	$	3.0
Purchases of available for sale investments		$81.7		—
Total Cash flows used in investing activities	$	102.1	$	40.1

In the future, we expect our capital expenditures to increase as revenues increase and business needs arise.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $67.9 million and $68.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, net cash provided by financing activity consisted of net proceeds from our follow-on public offering of $130.4 million, net proceeds from stock option exercises and share issuance from our employee stock purchase plan of $1.7 million and excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements of $1.4 million, partially offset by the repayment of our credit facility of $65.0 million, capital lease obligations of $0.2 million, repayments of notes payable of $0.3 million and deferred financing costs of $0.1 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, net cash provided by financing activity consisted of net proceeds from our follow-on public offering of $66.3 million, net proceeds from stock option exercises of $1.8 million and excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements of $1.1 million, partially offset by the repayments of capital lease obligations of $0.3 million and deferred financing costs of $0.1 million.

We believe that our cash and cash equivalent balances and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to satisfy our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. We intend to continue to invest our cash in excess of current operating requirements in interest-bearing, investment-grade securities. Changes in our operating plans, lower than anticipated revenue, increased expenses or other events, may cause us to seek additional debt or equity financing. Financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could negatively impact our growth plans and our financial condition and consolidated results of operations. Additional equity financing would be dilutive to the holders of our common stock, and debt financing, if available, may involve significant cash payment obligations and covenants or financial ratios that restrict our ability to operate our business.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and consolidated results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to uncollectible accounts receivable and accrued expenses. We base these estimates on historical experience and 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 that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates.

We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:

Revenue Recognition

We derive our revenue from two sources: (1) subscription revenues for solutions, which are comprised of subscription fees from clients accessing our on-demand software, consulting services, outsourcing services and proprietary content, and from clients purchasing additional support beyond the standard support that is included in the basic subscription fee; and (2) other fees for discrete professional services. Because we provide our solutions as a service, we follow the provisions of Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, as amended by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition. On August 1, 2003, we adopted Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. We recognize revenue when all of the following conditions are met:

•

There is persuasive evidence of an arrangement;

•

The service has been provided to the client;

•

The collection of the fees is probable; and

•

The amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable.

Subscription fees and support revenues are recognized on a monthly basis over the terms of the contracts. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and in deferred revenue or revenue, depending on whether the revenue recognition criteria have been met.

Discrete professional services, when sold with subscription and support offerings, are accounted for separately since these services have value to the customer on a stand-alone basis and there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value of the delivered elements. Our arrangements do not contain general rights of return. Additionally, when professional services are sold with other elements, the consideration from the revenue arrangement is allocated among the separate elements based upon the relative fair value. Revenues from professional services are recognized as the services are rendered.

In determining whether revenues from professional services can be accounted for separately from subscription revenue, we consider the following factors for each agreement: availability of professional services from other vendors, whether objective and reliable evidence of the fair value exists of the undelivered elements, the nature and the timing of the agreement execution in comparison to the subscription agreement start date and the contractual dependence of the subscription service on the customer’s satisfaction with the other services. If the professional service does not qualify for separate accounting, we recognize the revenue ratably over the remaining term of the subscription contract. In these situations we defer the direct and incremental costs of the professional service over the same period as the revenue is recognized.

We record out-of-pocket expenses incurred in accordance with EITF issue 01-14, Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for “Out-of-Pocket” Expenses Incurred, which requires that reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses be classified as revenue and not as cost reductions. Before the December 15, 2001 effective date of EITF Issue 01-14, out-of-pocket reimbursements from clients were netted with the applicable costs. These items primarily include travel, meals and certain telecommunication costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, reimbursed expenses totaled $2.4 million.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from clients’ inability to pay us. The provision is based on our historical experience and for specific clients that, in our opinion, are likely to default on our receivables from them. In order to identify these clients, we perform ongoing reviews of all clients that have breached their payment terms, as well as those that have filed for bankruptcy or for whom information has become available indicating a significant risk of non-recoverability. In addition, we have experienced significant growth in number of clients, and we have less payment history to rely upon with these clients. We rely on historical trends of bad debt as a percentage of total revenue and apply these percentages to the accounts receivable associated with new clients and evaluate these clients over time. To the extent that our future collections differ from our assumptions based on historical experience, the amount of our bad debt and allowance recorded may be different.

Capitalized Software Research and Development Costs

In accordance with EITF Issue 00-3, “Application of AICPA Statement of Position 97-2 to Arrangements That Include the Right to Use Software Stored on Another Entity’s Hardware,” we apply AICPA Statement of Position No. 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. The costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, will be capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. We also capitalize costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality. Maintenance and training cost are expensed as incurred. Internal use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life, generally three years. Management evaluates the useful lives of these assets on an annual basis and tests for impairments whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. There were no impairments to internal software in any of the periods covered in this report.

Goodwill and Other Identified Intangible Asset Impairment

On January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets which superseded Accounting Board Opinion No. 17, Intangible Assets. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, we ceased amortization of existing goodwill and are required to review the carrying value of goodwill for impairment. If goodwill becomes impaired, some or all of the goodwill could be written off as a charge to operations. This comparison is performed annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We have reviewed the carrying values of goodwill of each business unit by comparing the carrying values to the estimated fair values of the business components. The fair value is based on management’s estimate of the future discounted cash flows to be generated by the respective business components and comparable company multiples. Such cash flows consider factors such as future operating income, historical trends, as well as demand and competition. Comparable company multiples are based upon public companies in sectors relevant to our business based on our knowledge of the industry. Changes in the underlying business could affect these estimates, which in turn could affect the recoverability of goodwill. Through September 30, 2007, we have not observed any changes to our business units which would lead us to believe that our goodwill or other identified intangibles’ carrying value exceeds their fair values.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

We use a Black-Scholes option-pricing model to calculate the fair value of our stock awards. The calculation of the fair value of the awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is affected by our stock price on the date of grant as well as assumptions regarding the following:

•

Volatility is a measure of the amount by which the stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the award and is based on a weighted average of peer companies, comparable indices and our stock volatility. An increase in the volatility would result in an increase in our expense.

•

The expected term represents the period of time that awards granted are expected to be outstanding and is currently based upon an average of the contractual life and the vesting period of the options. With the passage of time actual behavioral patterns surrounding the expected term will replace the current methodology. Changes in the future exercise behavior of employees or in the vesting period of the award could result in a change in the expected term. An increase in the expected term would result in an increase to our expense.

•

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at time of grant. An increase in the risk-free interest rate would result in an increase in our expense.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the number of awards that are expected to vest. In determining the stock-based compensation expense to be recognized, a forfeiture rate is applied to the fair value of the award. This rate represents the number of awards that are expected to be forfeited prior to vesting and is based on Kenexa’s employee historical behavior. Changes in the future behavior of employees could impact this rate. A decrease in this rate would result in an increase in our expense.

Accounting for Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” or SFAS 109, which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of recorded assets and liabilities. SFAS 109 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The realization of the deferred tax assets is evaluated quarterly by assessing the valuation allowance and by adjusting the amount of the allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are the forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets. We have used tax-planning strategies to realize or renew net deferred tax assets in order to avoid the potential loss of future tax benefits.

In addition, we operate within multiple taxing jurisdictions and are subject to audit in each jurisdiction. These audits can involve complex issues that may require an extended period of time to resolve. In our opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for all periods.

Self-Insurance

We are self-insured for the majority of our health insurance costs, including claims filed and claims incurred but not reported subject to certain stop loss provisions. We estimate our liability based upon management’s judgment and historical experience. We also rely on the advice of consulting administrators in determining an adequate liability for self-insurance claims. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 our self-insurance accrual totaled $0.4 million. We continuously review the adequacy of our insurance coverage. Material differences may result in the amount and timing of insurance expense if actual experience differs significantly from management’s estimates.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, approximately 87.6% of our total revenue was comprised of sales to clients in the United States. A key component of our business strategy is to expand our international sales efforts, which will expose us to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. A 10% change in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to each of the currencies of our non-U.S-generated sales would not have resulted in a material change to our results. As of September 30, 2007, we were not engaged in any foreign currency hedging activities.

The financial position and operating results of our foreign operations are consolidated using the local currency as the functional currency. Local currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange to the U.S. dollar on the balance sheet date, and the local currency revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange to the U.S. dollar during the period. The related translation adjustments were approximately $0.4 million and $0.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, and is included in accumulated other comprehensive income. The foreign currency translation adjustment is not adjusted for income taxes as it relates to an indefinite investment in a non-U.S. subsidiary.

Interest Rate Risk

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing income without significantly increasing risk. Some of the securities in which we invest may be subject to market risk. This means that a change in prevailing interest rates may cause the principal amount of the investment to fluctuate. To minimize this risk in the future, we intend to maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments in a variety of securities, including commercial paper, money market funds, government and non-government debt securities and certificates of deposit. Our cash equivalents, which consist solely of money market funds, are not subject to market risk because the interest paid on these funds fluctuates with the prevailing interest rate. We do not believe that a 10% change in interest rates would have a significant effect on our interest income.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this report, or the Evaluation Date. Based upon the evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the Evaluation Date. Disclosure controls are controls and procedures designed to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls include controls and procedures designed to reasonably ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In connection with this evaluation, our management identified no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
