database and tools as we are no longer attracting the volume of new customers we have historically, and existing customers are moving to other company’s products for new projects more often. The decrease in database and tools product licenses year over year was $0.1 million in 2006. Based upon the performance of the database and tools products for the last few years, we anticipate these revenues will continue to decline in fiscal 2007. We expect revenue from NXJ Composer and NavRisk will become more significant over the next several years and will provide an offset to the expected decline in our future database and tools revenue.
For fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005, software license revenues from North America were 33% of total software licenses. Software license revenues from North America in absolute dollars were $1.8 million for fiscal 2006 and include software license revenues of $0.6 million from our IRM division for sales of its NavRisk product. There were no software license revenues for the IRM division in fiscal 2005. Software license revenues for Unify NXJ from North America were $0.1 million in fiscal 2006 compared to $0.3 million in fiscal 2005.
Software license revenues from our European territory were $2.5 million for fiscal 2006, an increase of $0.2 million, or 9% compared to fiscal 2005. Software license revenues from our distribution territories were $1.2 million in fiscal 2006 and $1.1 million in fiscal 2005. In fiscal 2005, we centralized the management of all the non-European distributors back to corporate headquarters with the expectation of reversing previous year over year decreases.
For fiscal 2005, software license revenues were $5.2 million, a decrease of $0.9 million or 15% from $6.1 million in fiscal 2004. Software license revenues in fiscal 2005 from North America increased to 33% of total software licenses, up from 29% of total software licenses in fiscal 2004. Software license revenues from North America were $1.7 million in both fiscal 2005 and 2004. Software license revenues for fiscal 2005 from outside of North America were $3.5 million, a decrease of 21% from fiscal 2004. This reduction was primarily the result of the gradual decline that we have experienced over the past several years in our database and tools products.
For both fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005 consulting revenues were $0.6 million. In fiscal 2006, our UBS division had $0.4 million in consulting revenues and our IRM division had $0.2 million in consulting revenues. In fiscal 2006, we renewed approximately 80% of our maintenance agreements, consistent with the previous years. Maintenance revenues in fiscal 2006 were $5.1 million compared to $5.5 million for both fiscal 2005 and 2004. The 7% decrease in fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005 is primarily the result of the gradual decline we have experienced in our database and tools product revenue over the last several years.
platforms and operating systems. Product development costs have been consistent over the last few years totaling $2.7 million in fiscal 2006, $2.8 million in fiscal 2005 and $3.0 million in fiscal 2004. Product development costs as a percentage of total revenues have also been consistent on a year over year basis and were 24% in fiscal 2006 and 25% in both fiscal 2005 and 2004.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits, marketing programs, travel expenses, professional services, facilities expenses and bad debt expense or recoveries. SG&A expenses were $6.8 million in fiscal 2006, $9.2 million for 2005 and $7.8 million for 2004. As a percentage of total revenue, SG&A expenses were 61% in fiscal 2006, 82% in fiscal 2005 and 66% in fiscal 2004. The major components of SG&A for fiscal 2006 were sales expenses of $3.4 million, marketing expenses of $0.8 million and general and administrative expenses of $2.6 million. For fiscal 2005, the major components of SG&A were sales expenses of $5.2 million, marketing expenses of $1.4 million, and general and administrative expenses of $2.6 million. Included in fiscal 2005, SG&A expenses are $1.1 million of non-operating expenses consisting of severance and other costs associated with a reduction in the North American and UK sales management teams and the conversion of the UK subsidiary to a sales office. In fiscal 2006, the Company had a focused initiative to contain SG&A expenses with the largest reduction in expenses compared to fiscal 2005 being in the sales and marketing areas. Fiscal 2005 sales expenses increased $1.0 million from fiscal 2004 as the Company increased its business development activities, hired a new Vice President of sales and marketing, and increased its direct sales force and telemarketing staff to focus on increasing sales of Unify NXJ.
Write-down of Other Investments. We continue to periodically review the recorded value of our investments. In fiscal 2004, we reduced the carrying value of our investment in Arango Software International, Inc. from $350,000 to its estimated fair value of $175,000. We record an investment impairment charge if and when we believe an investment has experienced a decline in market value that is other than temporary. Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of Arango could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value of the investment, thereby possibly requiring additional impairment charges in the future.
Other Income (Expense). Other income (expense), net consists primarily of foreign exchange gains and losses, interest earned by the Company on our cash and cash equivalents offset by interest expense incurred on debt. Other income (expense) was $50,000, $44,000 and ($27,000) in fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Provision for Income Taxes. For fiscal 2006, we recorded no state, federal or foreign tax provisions due to reported net losses. For fiscal 2005, we recorded expenses of $8,000 for various taxes. For fiscal 2004, we recorded a foreign income tax expense of $9,000 and a federal tax benefit of $6,000 for federal income tax refunds from prior periods related to NOL carry backs. At April 30, 2006, we had net operating losses for federal tax purposes of approximately $3.1 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At April 30, 2006, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1.9 million, compared to $3.7 million at April 30, 2005. Working capital at the end of fiscal 2006 was $0.7 million compared to $0.8 million at the end of fiscal 2005. The Company had accounts receivable of $3.4 million as of April 30, 2006. Included in the April 30, 2006 accounts receivable balance was a $1.7 million receivable from one customer which was collected in full in May 2006.
The Company completed a private financing on April 28, 2004, in which it received $3.7 million, net of expenses. The proceeds from the offering were received from the sale of 5,633,900 shares of common stock and warrants representing the right to acquire an additional 2,253,560 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $.90 per share. Due to the initial issuance of shares in the acquisition of Acuitrek in February 2005, which caused the application of the anti-dilution provision of the warrants, the warrant exercise price was adjusted to $0.89 per share and the total number of warrant shares purchasable on exercise of the warrants has increased to 2,272,715 shares. Any future issuance of shares with respect to the Acuitrek transaction will not trigger application of these anti-dilution provisions. The warrants vested immediately upon issuance. There were no warrants exercised as of April 30, 2006.
24
The Company has a line of credit arrangement with Silicon Valley Bank which was put in place during the first quarter of fiscal 2006. As of April 30, 2006 the Company had no outstanding debt under the line of credit. The line of credit has a borrowing limit of $1.0 million. As of April 30, 2006, based upon the amount of its eligible assets at that time, the Company had available for borrowing $974,500 on the line of credit. This line of credit was to expire on June 4, 2006, but on May 24, 2006 the line was extended until August 2, 2006 (see Notes 7 and 8 in footnotes to Consolidated Financial Statements). In addition, as of April 30, 2006, the Company had a term loan, also with Silicon Valley Bank, with a balance of $0.1 million. The line of credit is secured by qualifying foreign and domestic accounts receivable. The term loan is secured by purchased assets and has a one-year term. The Company will incur interest expense on the line of credit and the term loan at the prevailing prime rate plus 2.0% and 2.5%, respectively. The prime rate used to calculate interest shall not be less than 4.0%.
We believe that existing cash, $1.9 million as of April 30, 2006, along with forecasted operating cash flows for fiscal year 2007 and the credit facility, will provide us with sufficient working capital for us to meet our operating plan for fiscal year 2007. The fiscal 2007 operating plan assumes normal stand-alone operations for the Company, capital expenditures of approximately $60,000 and required interest and principal payments on debt.
In fiscal 2007, we plan to aggressively market our NavRisk software application and our NXJ Composer product, as well as continue to provide excellent technology products to our existing customers. The fiscal 2007 plan requires few additional strategic investments in sales, marketing or implementation services. We believe our fiscal 2007 plan will generate positive cash flow as a result of our NXJ Composer and NavRisk growth initiatives coupled with a focused initiative to contain expenses. However, there is no assurance our plans will be successful.
Operating Cash Flows. In fiscal 2006, we had negative cash flows from operations totaling $1.6 million. This compares to fiscal 2005 and 2004 where cash flows from operations were negative $2.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The negative operating cash flow for fiscal 2006 principally resulted from the $0.6 million net loss, a $0.9 million increase in accounts receivable, a $0.4 million decrease in accounts payable, a $0.1 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets, a $0.2 million decrease in support obligations and a $0.3 million decrease in other accrued liabilities. Offsetting these amounts was an increase of $0.2 million accrued compensation and related expenses, a $0.1 million increase in deferred revenue, $0.3 million in stock based expenses, $0.1 million for amortization, and $0.2 million in depreciation.
In fiscal 2005, we had negative cash flows from operations totaling $2.4 million. The negative operating cash flow principally resulted from $2.4 million in net loss, a $0.3 million decrease in other accrued liabilities, a $0.2 million decrease in deferred revenue, a $0.1 million decrease in accrued compensation, and a $0.1 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets. Offsetting these amounts was a $0.4 million decrease in accounts receivable, a $0.1 million increase in accounts payable and $0.2 million in depreciation.
In fiscal 2004, we had negative cash flows from operations totaling $0.1 million. The negative operating cash flow for fiscal 2004 was the result of a $1.0 million net loss, offset by both a $0.6 million increase in other accrued liabilities, and a $0.3 million increase in deferred revenue. Other factors included $0.2 million in depreciation, $0.2 million write-down of other investments, $0.1 million in stock-based expense, together with a $0.2 million increase in accounts receivable, a $0.2 million increase in prepaid expenses and offset by a net $0.1 million increase in accounts payable and accrued compensation.
Investing Cash Flows. Net cash and cash equivalents used by investing activities was $0.1 million for fiscal 2006. Net cash and cash equivalents used by investing activities approximated $0.7 million in fiscal 2005 and $0.2 million in fiscal 2004. The use of cash by investing activities for both fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2004 was entirely related to capital expenditures. The use of cash by investing activities for fiscal 2005 was $0.2 million for capital expenditures and $0.5 million for the purchase of Acuitrek Inc.
Financing Cash Flows. Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2006 was $0.1 million. In fiscal 2005 and 2004, cash provided by financing activities was $0.1 million and $3.8 million, respectively. Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2006 was the result of cash payments of $1.7 million used to make principal payments on debt offset by proceeds from borrowings of $1.5 million and proceeds of $0.1 million from the issuance of common stock. The cash provided in 2005 of $0.1 million was the result of $0.1 million from the proceeds of the issuance of common stock from stock options exercises and purchases under the employee stock purchase plan. In fiscal 2005, principal payments on debt of $1.7 million were offset by borrowings under debt obligations of $1.7 million also. The cash provided in fiscal 2004 was the result of $3.8 million from the proceeds of the issuance of common stock from a private financing closed in April 2004, the issuance of common stock from stock options exercises, and purchases under the employee stock purchase plan. Cash was also provided by the collection of notes receivable from a stockholder of $0.1 million with principal payments and borrowings under debt obligations offsetting each other.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 123R, Share-Based Payment. This Statement establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, primarily with respect to transactions in which employee services are obtained in exchange for share-based payment. Statement 123R is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after June 15, 2005. We have not completed the process of evaluating the impact that will result from adopting this pronouncement. The Company is therefore unable to disclose the impact that adopting FASB Statement 123R will have on its financial position and the results of operations when such statement is adopted.
In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions. This statement addresses the measurement of exchanges of nonmonetary assets and redefines the scope of transactions that should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Provisions of this Statement are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005 and were required to be adopted by the Company in the second quarter of fiscal 2006. The adoption of Statement 153 did not have a material impact on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections – a replacement of APB No. 20 and FAS No. 3. SFAS No. 154 provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error corrections. It establishes, unless impracticable, retrospective application as the required method for reporting a change in accounting principle in the absence of explicit transition requirements specific to the newly adopted accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 also provides guidance for determining whether retrospective application of a change in accounting principle is impracticable and for reporting a change when retrospective application is impracticable. The correction of an error in previously issued financial statements is not an accounting change. However, the reporting of an error correction involves adjustments to previously issued financial statements similar to those generally applicable to reporting an accounting change retrospectively. Therefore, the reporting of a correction of an error by restating previously issued financial statements is also addressed by SFAS No. 154. SFAS No. 154 is required to be adopted in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments – an amendment of FAS Statements No. 133 and 150. SFAS No. 155 (a) permits fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, (b) clarifies that certain instruments are not subject to the requirements of SFAS 133, (c) establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that may contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, (d) clarifies what may be an embedded derivative for certain concentrations of credit risk and (e) amends SFAS 140 to eliminate certain prohibitions related to derivatives on a qualifying special-purpose entity. SFAS No. 155 is required to be adopted in fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. We do not expect the adoption of this accounting pronouncement to have a material impact on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. This Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the Interpretation on its financial statements.
26
ITEM 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Interest Rate Risk. The Company’s exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to its investment portfolio, which consists of cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are stated at cost. Cash equivalents are generally maintained in money market accounts which have as their objective preservation of principal. The Company does not believe its exposure to interest rate risk is material for cash and cash equivalents, which totaled $1.9 million at April 30, 2006. Unify had no short-term investments at April 30 in fiscal 2006 or 2005. Additionally, the Company does not believe its exposure to interest rate risk is material for debt. On a combined basis, the current and long-term portions of debt totaled $0.1 million at April 30, 2006 and $0.2 million at April 30, 2005.
Unify does not use derivative financial instruments in its short-term investment portfolio, and places its investments with high quality issuers only and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. The Company is averse to principal loss and attempts to ensure the safety of its invested funds by limiting default, market and reinvestment risk.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk. As a global concern, the Company faces exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve and could have an adverse impact on the Company’s business, operating results and financial position. Historically, the Company’s primary exposures have related to local currency denominated sales and expenses in Europe, Japan and Australia. For example, when the U.S. dollar strengthens against the major European currencies, it results in lower revenues and expenses recorded for those regions when translated into U.S. dollars.
Due to the substantial volatility of currency exchange rates, among other factors, the Company cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on its future operating results. Although Unify takes into account changes in exchange rates over time in its pricing strategy, it does so only on an annual basis, resulting in substantial pricing exposure as a result of foreign exchange volatility during the period between annual pricing reviews. The Company also has currency exchange rate exposures on intercompany accounts receivable owed to the Company as a result of local currency sales of software licenses by the Company’s international subsidiary in France. At April 30, 2006, the Company had $0.1 million in such receivables denominated in Euros. The Company encourages prompt payment of intercompany balances in order to minimize its exposure to currency fluctuations, but it engages in no hedging activities to reduce the risk of such fluctuations. A hypothetical ten percent change in foreign currency rates would have an insignificant impact on the Company’s business, operating results and financial position. The Company has not experienced material exchange losses on intercompany balances in the past; however, due to the substantial volatility of currency exchange rates, among other factors, it cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on its future business, operating results and financial position.
ITEM 8. | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA |
See Part IV, Item 15 (a) for an index to the financial statements and supplementary financial information, which are filed, as part of this report.
ITEM 9. | CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE |
At a meeting held on December 15, 2004, our Board of Directors dismissed the firm of Ernst and Young LLP (“Ernst and Young”) as our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm effective December 15, 2004. In addition, the Board of Directors approved the engagement of Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) as our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2005. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors approved the change in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firms on December 15, 2004.
The reports of Ernst and Young on our financial statements for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2004 and April 30, 2003 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
In connection with the audits of our financial statements for each of the two fiscal years ended April 30, 2004 through the date of dismissal, there were no disagreements with Ernst and Young on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst and Young, would have caused Ernst and Young to make reference to the matter in their report.
27
On December 15, 2004, pursuant to the approval of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, we engaged Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) to serve as our independent auditors. During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004, and through December 15, 2005, we did not consult Grant Thornton on any accounting or auditing issues, the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements.
ITEM 9A. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls. There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The members of the compensation committee during fiscal 2006 were Tery Larrew (Chairman), Robert J. Majteles and Steven D. Whiteman, each a non-employee member of the Board. The committee is responsible for setting and administering the policies governing annual compensation of the Company’s executive officers. These policies are based upon the philosophy that Unify’s long-term success is best ensured by attracting, retaining and rewarding highly skilled executives who are capable of achieving its business goals and building long-term stockholder value. Consequently, the committee’s policies seek to reward individual performance as well as to align the financial interests of executive officers with overall Company results and increase stockholder value. The Company applies these policies in three principal areas: base salary, management incentives, and long-term incentives.
In preparing the stock performance graph for this filing, the Company selected the NASDAQ Computer and Data Processing Services Industry Index as our peer group. However, the companies in our stock peer group are not necessarily in our salary peer group surveys unless we also compete with them for executive talent.
Base Salary
The compensation committee annually assesses the performance and sets the base salary of our chief executive officer, Todd Wille who has also served as president and a director of Unify since November 2000. Mr. Wille, in turn, evaluates the performance of all other executive officers and recommends salary adjustments, if any, which are then reviewed and approved by the compensation committee. Performance evaluations for individual executive officers are based on predetermined individual goals. For Mr. Wille, these goals are set by our committee and for all other executive officers these goals are set by Mr. Wille. The objectives of the compensation committee are to correlate executive compensation with Unify’s business objectives and performance, and to enable us to attract, retain, and reward executive officers who contribute to our long-term success.
Management Incentive Plan
We seek to provide additional incentives and rewards to executives for their contributions to the achievement of the Company’s performance goals. For this reason, we administer a Management Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) that can represent a substantial portion of the total compensation of our executive officers when earned and paid.
The Incentive Plan provides for the establishment of a compensation pool based on the achievement of worldwide goals for revenues and operating income as well as other operating plan objectives specific to each executive officer’s individual areas of management responsibility. Incentive compensation target amounts for each executive officer are set annually by our committee in consultation with Unify’s chief executive officer. Performance against established goals is determined annually. Executive officers with sales responsibilities receive commission compensation in addition to base salary and management incentives.
The compensation committee annually reviews and approves the compensation of Todd E. Wille, President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Wille participates in the Incentive Plan in which he is eligible to receive a bonus for achievement of the Incentive Plan goals and objectives. This actual bonus amount may be higher or lower based on the actual achievement of the Incentive Plan goals and objectives. Mr. Wille is a Unify shareholder; to the extent his performance translates into an increase in the value of Unify’s stock, all shareholders, including Mr. Wille, share the benefit.
Certain net income performance goals established under the Incentive Plan for fiscal 2006 were not met and, therefore, no cash bonuses were paid in fiscal 2006 to any executive officers.
34
Long-Term Incentive Compensation
The compensation committee believes that employee equity ownership provides significant additional motivation to executive officers to maximize value for our stockholders, and therefore administers and makes periodic stock option grants under the 2001 Stock Option Plan and non-registered stock issued to individuals. Such options are granted at the prevailing market price and will only have value if our stock price increases over the exercise price. Accordingly, we believe that stock options serve to align the interests of our executive officers closely with our other stockholders because of the direct financial benefit that executive officers receive through improved stock performance.
Our committee periodically considers the grant of stock-based compensation to all executive officers. Such grants are made on the basis of a subjective analysis of the individual performance of the executive, previous option grants to the executive, and our financial performance. Option grants for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 are set forth in the table entitled “OPTION GRANTS IN LAST FISCAL YEAR” in this section.
Deductibility of Executive Compensation
We have considered the provisions of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and related Treasury Department regulations which restrict deductibility of executive compensation paid to the our chief executive officer and each of the four other most highly compensated executive officers holding office at the end of any year to the extent such compensation exceeds $1,000,000 for any such officers in any year and does not qualify for an exception under the statute or regulations. Income from options granted under the 2001 Option Plan would generally qualify for an exemption from these restrictions so long as the options are granted by a committee whose members are non-employee directors. Our committee is comprised of non-employee directors. Furthermore, should the compensation committee not be so constituted for any period of time, the options granted during such period are unlikely to result in compensation exceeding $1,000,000 in any year.

| |
(2) | The Company granted an aggregate of 475,000 common stock options during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. |
| |
(3) | All options were granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value per share of the common stock on the date of grant, as determined by the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on that day. |
| |
(4) | Potential gains are net of the exercise price, but before taxes associated with the exercise. Amounts represent hypothetical gains that could be achieved for the respective options if exercised at the end of the option term. The assumed five percent (5%) and ten percent (10%) rates of stock price appreciation are provided in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not represent our projection of the future common stock price. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises are dependent on Unify’s financial performance, overall market conditions and the number of shares vested by the option holder. |
38
Employment Agreements and Termination and Change of Control Agreements
We have an employment agreement with Mr. Wille, our president and chief executive officer. Under the agreement, he receives an annual salary, subject to Board adjustment, of $220,000, and is eligible to receive bonuses upon Unify achieving certain benchmarks in its business plan. Following a merger of the Company or sale of substantially all of its assets, the unvested portion of all options held by Mr. Wille as of the date of the transaction will automatically vest. Should Mr. Wille be terminated, such options will have the benefit of twelve (12) additional months of vesting and he will receive an amount equal to twelve (12) months’ salary.
As part of the purchase of Acuitrek, Inc. in February 2005 we entered into an employment agreement having a three (3) year term with Daniel Romine. Mr. Romine was the chief executive officer and one of the principal owners of Acuitrek. He is currently the Company’s Vice President and General Manager for the IRM Division. Under the employment agreement, Mr. Romine receives an annual salary, subject to Board adjustment, of $120,000, and is eligible to receive a commission/bonus per the Company’s standard management incentive plan. Mr. Romine was also granted an option to purchase 125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as part of the agreement. Additionally, the agreement provides Mr. Romine with certain severance benefits if he is terminated without cause, resigns for good reason as defined in the agreement, or if there is a change in control. Mr. Romine’s severance benefits include two (2) months of base salary and a continuance of health benefits for a period of two (2) months following termination.
Under our 1991 and 2001 Stock Option Plans, should we merge with or be otherwise acquired by another company in a transaction where our stockholders do not retain a majority of the voting stock, a “Change of Control” occurs. If there is a Change of Control and the successor company fails to either assume the outstanding options or substitute substantially equivalent options for its own stock, the vesting of all outstanding Unify options shall accelerate to become fully vested and immediately exercisable. Any outstanding options will terminate if they are not exercised upon consummation of the merger or assumed or replaced by the successor corporation.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent (10%) of Unify’s common stock to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Such persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports filed by them.
Based solely upon our review of such reports furnished to us and written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and more than ten percent (10%) stockholders for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, were met.

(1) | Number of shares beneficially owned and the percentage of shares beneficially owned are based on 29,523,608 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2006. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to options or warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable, or will become exercisable within 60 days of June 30, 2006, are deemed outstanding. Such shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as indicated in the footnotes to this table, the persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by them, subject to community property laws where applicable. Unless otherwise indicated, the individuals in the table may be contacted in care of Unify Corporation, 2101 Arena Blvd, Suite 100, Sacramento, California 95834. |

Equity Compensation Plan Information
Unify maintains two compensation plans that provide for the issuance of its Common Stock to officers, directors, other employees or consultants. These consist of the 2001 Stock Option Plan (the “Option Plan”) and the 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”), which have been approved by the stockholders. The 1991 Stock Option Plan, which had a ten-year life, has expired and has therefore ceased to be available for new grants. In fiscal 2003, the Board adopted, without a need for shareholder approval, the 2002 Director Restricted Stock Plan (the “Director Restricted Stock Plan”) as part of a program to provide compensation we felt was necessary to attract, retain and reward members of our Board of Directors who were willing to provide the time and energy that we believe is required to meet our business goals. The following table sets forth information regarding outstanding options and shares reserved for future issuance under the foregoing plans as of April 30, 2006:

(1) | Comprised entirely of shares reserved for future issuance under the Option Plan. |
| |
(2) | There are 500,000 shares authorized under the Director Restricted Stock Plan, of which 480,687 shares were awarded by and were outstanding on April 30, 2006. As of April 30, 2006 there were 19,313 shares available for future awards. |
| |
(3) | In fiscal 2003, the Board authorized the issuance of non-registered non-plan stock options for individual senior level executive recruitment. |
Material Features of Director Restricted Stock Plan
On May 1, 2002 the Company established the Director Restricted Stock Plan as part of a compensation program designed to attract and retain independent members for our board of directors. The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the Director Restricted Stock Plan is 500,000. In May 2005, each independent director was granted a fully vested restricted stock award for the number of shares which is equal to $10,000 divided by the fair market value of a share of stock at the award date. There were 115,403 and 42,556 shares awarded in the fiscal 2005 and 2004 under this plan, respectively, leaving a balance of 19,313 shares reserved for future awards at April 30, 2006.
Material Features of Individual non-Registered Stock Options
As of April 30, 2006 the Board granted options to purchase up to 225,000 shares of common stock under individual, non-plan option agreements. The options and shares issuable under such agreements are restricted securities under the Securities Act and may not be issued or sold except under an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption there from. The non-plan option agreements contain substantially similar terms as options issued under our Option Plan.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Amounts Due from Officers, Directors and Principal Stockholders. Except for advances of reimbursable expenses we have made no other loans to executive officers, directors, stockholders or other affiliates. Any such loan must be approved by a majority of those board members who are independent of and have no interest in the transaction.
42
Limitation of Liability and Indemnification Matters. Unify’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) limits the liability of our directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that a corporation’s certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for liability for (i) any breach of their duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) any transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
One of our directors, Robert J. Majteles, is the managing member of Treehouse Capital, which has an agreement with Special Situations Funds (“SSF”), the largest stockholder of Unify, pursuant to which Treehouse, through Mr. Majteles, provides certain management and financial advisory services for SSF on request. As a result, Treehouse is entitled to 10% of Special Situations Funds’ net gain (as defined) or net loss (as defined) on its investment in Unify during the term of the agreement, offset by certain fees that may be paid by Unify to Treehouse or Mr. Majteles directly. Mr. Majteles does not have or share voting or dispositive power over any securities held by Special Situations Funds.
Our bylaws call for us to indemnify our directors, executive officers, and trustees to the fullest extent permitted by law. We believe that such indemnification covers negligence and gross negligence. Our bylaws also permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any executive officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in such capacity (subject to certain exclusions), regardless of whether the bylaws permit indemnification.
ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES
Audit Fees
Fees billed by our principal accountant, Grant Thornton LLP, for fiscal year 2006 audit services totaled approximately $239,000 including fees associated with the annual audit, review of the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and the statutory audit required for our French subsidiary.

Audit-Related Fees
Audit-related service fees billed by Grant Thornton for fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005 were approximately $26,000 and $60,000, respectively. The fiscal 2006 fees were related to the review of S-4 filings for the Halo merger and the fiscal 2005 fees related to the acquisition of Acuitrek,, Inc.
Tax Fees

Report of Grant Thornton LLP, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Stockholders of Unify Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Unify Corporation as of April 30, 2006 and 2005 and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years ended April 30, 2006 and 2005. 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Unify Corporation as of April 30, 2006 and April 30, 2005 and the results of its operation and its cash flow for the years ended April 30, 2006 and 2005 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

UNIFY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company
Unify provides business automation software solutions, including applications for specialty markets within the insurance and transportation industries. Our solutions deliver a broad set of capabilities for automating business processes, integrating existing information systems and delivering collaborative information. Through our industry expertise and market leading technologies, we help organizations reduce risk, drive business optimization, apply governance, and increase customer and member services. Our customers are in a variety of industries, including insurance, financial services, healthcare, government, manufacturing and many other industries. Unify is headquartered in Sacramento, California and has offices in the United Kingdom and France.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is their local currency. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates. Income and expense accounts are translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the reporting period. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses are included in other income, net. Foreign currency adjustments resulting from the translation process are excluded from net loss and recorded in other comprehensive loss.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has sustained substantial losses from operations in recent years. In addition, the Company has used, rather than provided, cash in its operations.
In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet its financing requirements on a continuing basis, to maintain present financing, and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.
Management has taken steps to revise its operating and financial requirements, which it believes are sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue in existence. These steps include limiting staff additions, minimizing capital expenditures, timely billing and collection for services and products provided to customers, reducing variable expenses such as marketing and travel and maintaining access to other sources of cash via credit lines and capital markets.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the assessment of the carrying value of the other investments, valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, valuation allowance for deferred taxes and the allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts, receivable, long-term receivables and notes receivable. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased and are stated at cost. Cash equivalents consist primarily of demand deposits with banks and money market funds.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Notes payable approximate fair value because the interest rates are tied to the prime rate.
Concentrations of Credit Risk and Credit Evaluations
Financial instruments potentially subjecting the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents primarily with three financial institutions. The Company licenses its products principally to companies in the United States, Europe, and Japan and no single customer accounted for 10% or more of consolidated revenues in the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004. For the year ended April 30, 2006 the Company did have one customer that accounted for 12% of consolidated revenues.
53
The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. Allowances are maintained for potential credit losses. International revenues include all our software license and service revenues from customers located outside North America. International revenues accounted for 63%, 65% and 68% of total revenues in fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
An allowance for doubtful accounts is established to ensure trade receivables are not overstated due to uncollectibility. Bad-debt reserves are maintained for all customers based on a variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, significant one-time events and historical experience. Additional reserves for individual accounts are recorded when the Company becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position. If circumstances related to customers change, estimates of the recoverability of receivables would be further adjusted. Following is a schedule that details activity for the allowance for doubtful accounts and the allowance for long-term accounts and notes receivable.

Year ended April 30, 2006 | | | 178 | | | 71 | | | (3 | ) | | — | | | 246 | |
Other Investments
The Company carries other investments at the lower of cost or estimated fair value (Note 5).
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, generally three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term.
Capitalized Software
Under the criteria set forth in Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 86 Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed, capitalization of software development costs begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility of the product. With respect to the Company’s software development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. To date, the Company’s products have been released shortly after reaching technological feasibility. Therefore, development costs incurred after completion of a working model and prior to general release have not been significant. Accordingly, no software development costs have been capitalized by the Company to date.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets or intangibles may be in excess of fair value or not recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
54
The Company periodically reevaluates the original assumptions and rationale utilized in the establishment of the carrying value and estimated useful lives of the long-lived assets. The criteria used for these evaluations include management’s estimate of the asset’s continuing ability to generate income from operations and positive cash flows in future periods.
Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of April 30, and between annual tests if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value-based approach. No impairment of goodwill has been identified during any of the periods presented (Note 6).
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit, typically three years. We evaluate the recoverability of intangible assets periodically and take into account events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that indicate that impairment exists. All of our intangible assets are subject to amortization. No impairments of intangible assets have been identified during any of the periods (Note 6).
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue from software license sales and related services, including maintenance and support, and consulting services. The Company licenses its products to end user customers, independent software vendors (“ISVs”), international distributors and value added resellers (“VARs”). The Company’s contracts with ISVs, VARs and international distributors do not include special considerations such as rights of return, stock rotation, price protection, special acceptance or warranty provisions. With the exception of its NavRisk product, the Company recognizes revenue for software license sales in accordance with Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. For the NavRisk product, the Company recognizes revenue for software licenses sales in accordance with Statement of Position 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts and Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) 45, Long-Term Construction Type Contracts. The Company exercises judgment in connection with the determination of the amount of software and services revenue to be recognized in each accounting period. The nature of each licensing arrangement determines how revenues and related costs are recognized.
With the exception of the NavRisk software application, the Company’s products are generally sold with a perpetual license. The Company sells the NavRisk software under both perpetual and term licenses. Term licenses allow the customer to use the NavRisk software for a fixed period of time, generally 3 to 5 years, and at the conclusion of the term the customer must cease using the software or purchase a new license term. The customer does not receive any additional software during the license term. Under both perpetual and term licenses the customer can, at their discretion, elect to purchase related maintenance and support on an annual basis.
For software license arrangements that do not require significant modification or customization of the underlying software, revenue is recognized when the software product or service has been shipped or electronically delivered, the license fees are fixed and determinable, uncertainties regarding customer acceptance are resolved, collectibility is probable and persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists.
For arrangements of $10,000 or more, a signed noncancelable license agreement is required for revenue recognition. For arrangements that are less than $10,000 the Company considers a customer purchase order, a customer purchase requisition, or a sales quotation signed by an officer of the customer to be persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists such that revenue can be recognized.
For software license arrangements that do require significant modification or customization of the underlying software, revenue is recognized based on contract accounting under the provisions of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) 45, Long-Term Construction Type Contracts and Statement of Position (“SOP”) 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. This guidance is followed since contracts with customers purchasing the NavRisk application require significant configuration to the software and the configuration
55
activities are essential to the functionality of the software. The Company is using the completed-contract method for revenue recognition as it has limited experience determining the accuracy of progress-to-completion estimates for installation hours and project milestones. Under the completed-contract method, revenue is recognized when the software product or service has been shipped or electronically delivered, the license fees are fixed and determinable, uncertainties regarding customer acceptance are resolved, collectibility is probable and persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists. Project costs incurred for contracts in progress are deferred and reflected on the Balance Sheet as Contracts in Progress. When a contract is completed, revenue is recognized and deferred costs are expensed. The Company anticipates it will switch to the percentage-of-completion method to recognize NavRisk revenue when it is capable of accurately establishing progress-to-completion estimates for the NavRisk contracts.
The Company’s customer contracts include multi-element arrangements that include a delivered element (a software license) and undelivered elements (such as maintenance and support and/or consulting). The value allocated to the undelivered elements is unbundled from the delivered element based on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of the fair value of the maintenance and support and/or consulting, regardless of any separate prices stated within the contract. VSOE of fair value is defined as (i) the price charged when the same element is sold separately, or (ii) if the element has not yet been sold separately, the price for the element established by management having the relevant authority when it is probable that the price will not change before the introduction of the element into the marketplace. The Company then allocates the remaining balance to the delivered element (a software license) regardless of any separate prices stated within the contract using the residual method as the fair value of all undelivered elements is determinable.
We defer revenue for any undelivered elements, and recognize revenue for delivered elements only when the fair values of undelivered elements are known, uncertainties regarding customer acceptance are resolved, and there are no customer-negotiated refund or return rights affecting the revenue recognized for delivered elements. If we cannot objectively determine the fair value of any undelivered element included in bundled software and service arrangements, we defer revenue until all elements are delivered and services have been performed, or until fair value can objectively be determined for any remaining undelivered elements.
An assessment of the ability of the Company’s customers to pay is another consideration that affects revenue recognition. In some cases, the Company sells to undercapitalized customers. In those circumstances, revenue recognition is deferred until cash is received, the customer has established a history of making timely payments or the customer’s financial condition has improved. Furthermore, once revenue has been recognized, the Company evaluates the related accounts receivable balance at each period end for amounts that we believe may no longer be collectible. This evaluation is largely done based on a review of the financial condition via credit agencies and historical experience with the customer. Any deterioration in credit worthiness of a customer may impact the Company’s evaluation of accounts receivable in any given period.
Revenue from support and maintenance activities, which consist of fees for ongoing support and unspecified product updates, is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance contract, typically one year, and the associated costs are expensed as incurred. Consulting service arrangements are performed on a “best efforts” basis and are generally billed under time-and-materials arrangements. Revenues and expenses relating to providing consulting services are recognized as the services are performed.
Warranties and Indemnification
The Company offers a limited warranty for product and service sales that generally provide the customer a sixty-day warranty period against defects. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such warranties and has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
The Company’s license agreements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if its product or services infringe upon a third-party’s intellectual property rights. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications and has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Stock-Based Compensation
As permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123) and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure (SFAS 148), the Company accounts for stock-based awards using the intrinsic value method of
56
accounting in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting For Stock Issued To Employees and related interpretations. As such, compensation is recorded on the measurement date, generally the date of issuance or grant, as the excess of the current estimated fair value of the underlying stock over the purchase or exercise price. Any deferred compensation is amortized over the respective vesting periods of the equity instruments, if any.
SFAS 123 requires the disclosure of pro forma net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share had the Company adopted the fair value method to account for its stock-based awards. Under SFAS 123, the fair value of stock-based awards to employees is calculated through the use of option pricing models which were developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions. Such options differ significantly from the Company’s stock-based awards. These models require subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values. The Company’s calculations are made using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, with the following weighted average assumptions: expected option life, 12 months following vesting; stock volatility, 207% in fiscal 2006, 223% in fiscal 2005 and 117% in fiscal 2004; risk-free interest rates, 4.3% in fiscal 2006, 3.3% in fiscal 2005 and 1.7% in fiscal 2004; and no dividends during the expected term. The Company’s calculations are based on a multiple option valuation approach and forfeitures are recognized as they occur.
The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and net loss per share if Unify had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123, to stock-based employee compensation (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Net loss per share (basic and diluted), pro forma | | $ | (0.03 | ) | $ | (0.10 | ) | $ | (0.06 | ) |
Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are recorded for the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities and net operating loss carryforwards. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount whose realization is more likely than not. U.S. income taxes are not provided on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries as they are considered to be permanently invested.
Loss Per Share
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share, requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock (e.g. convertible preferred stock, warrants, and common stock options) were exercised or converted into common stock. Potential common shares in the diluted EPS computation are excluded for fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004 as their effect would be antidilutive.
Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss includes net loss and comprehensive loss. The Company’s components of other comprehensive loss are gains and losses on foreign currency translation.
Segment Reporting
For fiscal 2004, the Company had two reportable segments, the Americas and Europe, which are organized, managed and analyzed geographically and operate in the infrastructure software segment selling and marketing application development software and related services. For fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2006, a third reportable segment, Insurance Risk Management division, which sells and markets the NavRisk application, was added as a result of the acquisition of Acuitrek (see Note 3).
57
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 123R, Share-Based Payment. This Statement establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, primarily with respect to transactions in which employee services are obtained in exchange for share-based payment. Statement 123R is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after June 15, 2005. We have not completed the process of evaluating the impact that will result from adopting this pronouncement. The Company is therefore unable to disclose the impact that adopting FASB Statement 123R will have on its financial position and the results of operations when such statement is adopted.
In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions. This statement addresses the measurement of exchanges of nonmonetary assets and redefines the scope of transactions that should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Provisions of this Statement are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005 and were required to be adopted by the Company in the second quarter of fiscal 2006. The adoption of Statement 153 did not have a material impact on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections – a replacement of APB No. 20 and FAS No. 3. SFAS No. 154 provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error corrections. It establishes, unless impracticable, retrospective application as the required method for reporting a change in accounting principle in the absence of explicit transition requirements specific to the newly adopted accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 also provides guidance for determining whether retrospective application of a change in accounting principle is impracticable and for reporting a change when retrospective application is impracticable. The correction of an error in previously issued financial statements is not an accounting change. However, the reporting of an error correction involves adjustments to previously issued financial statements similar to those generally applicable to reporting an accounting change retrospectively. Therefore, the reporting of a correction of an error by restating previously issued financial statements is also addressed by SFAS No. 154. SFAS No. 154 is required to be adopted in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments – an amendment of FAS Statements No. 133 and 150. SFAS No. 155 (a) permits fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, (b) clarifies that certain instruments are not subject to the requirements of SFAS 133, (c) establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that may contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, (d) clarifies what may be an embedded derivative for certain concentrations of credit risk and (e) amends SFAS 140 to eliminate certain prohibitions related to derivatives on a qualifying special-purpose entity. SFAS No. 155 is required to be adopted in fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. We do not expect the adoption of this accounting pronouncement to have a material impact on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation (“FIN”) No 48. Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. This Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the Interpretation on its financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain items in the fiscal 2005 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2006 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on operating results or stockholders’ equity.

Note 2. Acquisition by Halo Technology Holding, Inc.
On March 14, 2006 the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Halo Technology Holdings Inc. (“Halo”) and UCA Merger Sub, Inc. (the “Merger Sub”), as amended on May 24, 2006 and July 5, 2006. Under the terms of the merger agreement Halo would acquire all of the outstanding stock of Unify as part of an all stock transaction valued at approximately $21.0 million based on Halo’s market valuation at the time the merger agreement was signed and $15.8 million based on Halo’s market valuation as of July 24, 2006. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into Unify, with Unify surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Halo. In connection with the Merger Agreement, two shareholders of Unify representing approximately thirty-three percent (33%) of outstanding voting rights of Unify have executed stockholder agreements which, subject to limited exceptions, require these stockholders to vote their Unify shares in favor of the merger.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, which was approved by the boards of directors of each of Halo and Unify, each share of Unify’s common stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger will be converted into the right to receive .595 shares of common stock of Halo (the “Exchange Ratio”) unless Unify’s cash on hand at closing is less than $2.1 million. If Unify’s cash on hand at closing is less than $2.1 million, then the exchange ratio is subject to a downward adjustment in accordance with the Merger Agreement or alternatively, Halo may elect not to close the merger. The merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
In addition, each outstanding option to purchase shares of common stock of Unify that has an exercise price of less than $1.00 per share shall become and represent an option to purchase the number of share of Halo common stock (rounded down to the nearest full share) determined by multiplying (X) the number of shares of Unify common shares subject to the option immediately prior to the effective time of the merger by (Y) the Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per share of Halo common stock equal to dividing (A) the exercise price of the Unify option by (B) the Exchange Ratio, and rounding the result up to the nearest tenth of one cent. All other options to purchase Unify common stock shall be cancelled at the effective time of the merger. The Halo option issued in substitution of Unify options shall contain substantially the same terms and conditions as the applicable Unify options.
Each outstanding warrant to purchase shares of common stock of Unify shall become and represent a warrant to purchase the number of shares of Halo common stock (rounded down to the nearest full share) determined by multiplying (X) the number of shares of Unify common shares subject to the warrant immediately prior to the effective time of the merger by (Y) the Exchange Ratio. The exercise price for the Halo shares issued upon exercise of the Halo warrants issue in replacement of the Unify warrants shall be $1.356 per share. The Halo warrants issued in substitution of the Unify warrants shall contain substantially the same terms and conditions as the applicable Unify warrants.
The Merger Agreement includes representations and warranties regarding, among other things, Unify’s corporate organization and capitalization, the accuracy of its reports and financial statements filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended the (the “Exchange Act”), the absence of certain changes or events to Unify since January 31, 2006, and the receipt of a fairness opinion regarding the merger from the Company’s financial advisor. Similarly, Halo makes representations and warranties regarding, among other things, its corporate organization and capitalization and the accuracy of its reports and financial statements filed under the Exchange Act.
The Merger Agreement also includes covenants governing, among other things, Unify’s and Halo’s operations outside the ordinary course of business prior to the closing.
Consummation of the merger is subject to several closing conditions, including, among others, approval by a majority of Unify’s common shares entitled to vote thereon, holders of less than ten percent (10%) of Unify’s outstanding common stock exercising appraisal or dissenter’s rights, Halo receiving a new equity investment of at least $3.0 million, (in addition to any amounts invested by Special Situations Funds) Halo converting certain of its outstanding convertible debt into common stock of Halo or restructuring such debt,, no material adverse change in the business or condition of either company prior to the effective date of the merger, and the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by Halo, registering the shares of Halo common stock to be issued in the merger. In addition, the Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights allowing Unify, Halo or both parties to terminate the agreement upon the occurrence of certain conditions, including the failure to consummate the merger by September 30, 2006.

Note 3. Acquisition of Acuitrek
On February 2, 2005, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of Acuitrek, Inc. Acuitrek Inc., is a software provider of policy administration and underwriting solutions for the public entity self insured and risk pools insurance market. The acquisition enabled the Company to access specialty vertical markets with its business process automation solutions. Under the terms of the agreement, Unify made an initial payment to the stockholders of $455,000 (which included 520,833 shares of Common Stock), and over the next three years has agreed to make retention-based earn-out payments of $1.1 million and potential performance-based earn-out payments, all to be paid with 50 percent cash and 50 percent Unify common stock (assuming profitability of the Acuitrek division). These payments will be recorded as compensation expense in accordance with EITF 95-8, accounting for contingent consideration paid to the shareholders of an acquired enterprise in a purchase business combination. Shares issuable in the future to the Sellers are based on the market value of the Unify common stock at the time of issuance. Unify has agreed to register the shares issuable under the Agreement pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement with the former Acuitrek shareholders.

Note 5. Other Investments
Other investments represent stock in closely held companies, which are accounted for under the cost method. The Company’s ownership interest in both Arango Software International, Inc. (“Arango”) and Unify Japan KK, is less than 15%.
At April 30, 2006 and 2005 other investments consisted of the following (in thousands):
| | 2006 | | 2005 | |

Unify Japan KK is a Japanese corporation that is a master distributor for the Company in Japan. Sales to Unify Japan KK in fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004 were $0.3 million, $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Accounts receivable from Unify Japan KK as of April 30, 2006 and 2005 were $76,144 and $92,485, respectively.
The Company holds a minority interest in Arango, a privately held corporation. During the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company re-evaluated the $350,000 carrying value of this investment and recorded a non-cash charge of $175,000 to bring the carrying amount to $175,000. Several factors can trigger an impairment review such as significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results and significant negative industry or economic trends. In assessing potential impairment for such investments, we consider these factors as well as the forecasted financial performance. The Company records an investment impairment charge if and when the Company believes an investment has experienced a decline in market value that is other than temporary. Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of Arango could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value of the investment that is not currently reflected in the investment’s carrying value, thereby possibly requiring additional impairment charges in the future.

Note 7. Credit Facility
On May 24, 2006, the company extended the Silicon Valley Bank revolving line of credit. This credit facility was to expire June 4, 2006; however, it was extended until August 3, 2006. (Note 18).
The line of credit has a borrowing limit of $1 million. There were no amounts outstanding under the line of credit as of April 30, 2006. Based upon the amount of its eligible assets as of year end, the Company had available for borrowing $974,500 under the line. The line is secured by qualifying foreign and domestic accounts receivable. The Company incurs interest expense on funds used at the prevailing prime rate plus two percent per annum. The prime rate used in the determination of interest shall not be less than 4.0%.
In connection with the original revolving line of credit facility, the Company issued warrants to Silicon Valley Bank to purchase 115,385 shares of Company stock at a per share price of $0.39. The Company determined the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: volatility factor of 70%, risk free-interest rate of 2.1%, expected life of 10 years and no dividend yield. The fair value for the warrants totaling $34,600 was recorded as debt issuance costs and was amortized into interest expense over the one year term of the original credit facility. The warrants were exercised by Silicon Valley Bank during fiscal 2005 on a net basis.

Note 9. Other Long-Term Liabilities
As part of the Acuitrek acquisition (see Note 3), the Company assumed a royalty payable of $600,000 as established by the 2001 funded software development and license arrangement with Acuitrek’s first customer. A minimum royalty is payable in quarterly installments equal to two percent of all gross revenues received from the sale or licensing of the NavRisk product through June 11, 2011. Any remaining royalty balance as of June 11, 2011 shall become fully due and payable on such date. The Company accrued the estimated costs of providing future support and maintenance services for the support and maintenance contracts as of the acquisition date. The future support obligation periods ranged from less than a year to greater than twenty (20) additional years. The support obligation for periods greater than one year from April 30, 2006 is $120,000 and is reflected as accrued support obligations.
In France, the Company is subject to mandatory employee severance costs associated with a statutory government regulated plan covering all employees. The plan provides for one month of severance for the first five years of service with an employer and one fifth of one year of severance for every one year of service thereafter. In order to receive their severance payment the employee may not retire before age 65 and must be employed at the time of retirement. The balance as of April 30, 2006 and 2005 is $77,105 and $72,432, respectively and is reflected as other long term liabilities.
Note 10. Maintenance Contracts
The Company offers maintenance contracts to its customers at the time they enter into a product license agreement and renew those contracts, at the customers’ option, annually thereafter. These maintenance contracts are priced as a percentage of the value of the related license agreement. The specific terms and conditions of these initial maintenance contracts and subsequent renewals vary depending upon the product licensed and the country in which the Company does business. Generally, maintenance contracts provide the customer with unspecified product maintenance updates and customer support services. Revenue from maintenance contracts is initially deferred and then recognized ratably over the term of the agreements.

Stock Purchase Plan
Under the 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”), as amended effective November 15, 2001, eligible employees may purchase the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions of up to 15% of their base compensation. Offering periods under the Purchase Plan are of 24 months’ duration with purchases occurring every six months. Common stock is purchased for the accounts of participating employees at a price per share equal to the lower of (i) 85% of the fair market value of a share of common stock at the beginning of the offering period or (ii) 85% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of purchase. At April 30, 2006, no shares were reserved for future issuance under the Purchase Plan as the plan expired on March 25, 2006. Prior to the Purchase Plan’s expiration the ability of employees to make purchases under the plan ceased effective December 1, 2005 when the Company suspended the plan as part of entering into a merger agreement to be acquired (Note 2).
Restricted Stock
On May 1, 2002, the Company established the 2002 Director Restricted Stock Plan (“Director Restricted Stock Plan”) as part of a compensation program designed to attract and retain independent members for our board of directors. The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the Director Restricted Stock Plan is 500,000. In May, each independent director is granted a fully vested restricted stock award for the number of shares which is equal to $10,000 divided by the fair market value of a share of stock at the award date. There were 115,403 and 42,556 shares awarded in fiscal 2006 and 2005 under this plan, respectively, leaving a balance of 19,313 shares reserved for future awards at April 30, 2006.
Private Placement
On April 26, 2004, the Company issued through a private placement 5,633,900 shares of common stock to a group of institutional investors at a price of $0.71 per share and 5-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,253,560 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.90 per share. Net proceeds from the private placement were $3,696,000, net of estimated accrued costs of $304,000. The Company’s actual costs for the private placement were $397,000 which resulted in a further reduction of additional paid-in-capital of $93,000 during fiscal 2005.
Due to the initial issuance of shares in the acquisition of Acuitrek in February 2005 which caused the application of the anti-dilution provision of the warrants, the warrant exercise price has been adjusted to $0.89 per share and the total number of warrant shares purchasable on exercise of the warrants has increased to 2,272,715 shares. Under certain circumstances, where the closing bid price of a share of common stock equals or exceeds $1.80, appropriately adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or other reclassification or combination of common stock, for 20 consecutive trading days commencing after the registration statement covering the warrants shares has been declared effective, the Company, upon 20 days’ prior written notice to the warrant holders within one business day immediately
65
following the end of such 20 day trading period, may call the warrants for 25% of the shares of the common stock initially purchasable pursuant to the warrants at a redemption price equal to $0.01 per share of common stock then purchasable pursuant to the warrants. If the call conditions are met again during the 30 day period immediately after consummation of a previous call, the Company may once again call the warrants for an additional increment of 25% of the shares of common stock initially purchasable pursuant to the warrants or such less amount as shall then remain purchasable and in the same manner and subject to the same notice requirements as the initial call, until all of the shares have been called.
Note Receivable from Stockholder
Note receivable from stockholder at April 30, 2003 consisted of the principal balance due on a $60,000 full recourse note from one of the Company’s officers. The note had an interest rate of 5% annually, and was secured by 250,000 shares of common stock. The note was paid when due in the second quarter of fiscal 2004.

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, the timing and amount of which are uncertain. Accordingly, the net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance. The valuation allowance decreased by $15.6 million in fiscal 2006 and increased by $0.7 million and $0.6 million during fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively. At April 30, 2006, the Company had approximately $3.1 million in federal net operating loss carryforwards that begin to expire in fiscal year 2024 through 2026, approximately $3.8 million in state net operating loss carryforwards that expire in fiscal years 2014 to 2016, approximately $0.6 million in foreign net operating loss carryforwards that do not expire, approximately $4.0 million in capital loss carryforwards that expire in 2010 and approximately $46,000 in foreign tax credit carryforwards that expire in 2007. The Company’s ability to utilize these net operating loss carryforwards and credits may be subject to certain limitations in the event of a change in ownership.

Litigation
The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the normal course of business. If such matters arise, the Company cannot assure that it would prevail in such matters, nor can it assure that any remedy could be reached on mutually agreeable terms, if at all. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, were there any such matters, the Company would not be able to accurately predict their ultimate outcome.

The agreement provides for a $1.0 million revolving line of credit and for term loans up to $250,000 for the purchase of qualifying equipment. The line of credit is secured by qualifying foreign and domestic accounts receivable and has a one-year term. The term loan is secured by purchased assets and is repaid over twenty four months. The Company will incur interest expense on the line of credit and the term loan at the prevailing prime rate plus 2.0% and 2.5% per annum, respectively. The prime rate used to determine the interest shall not be less than 4.0%.
