Pro Forma Results
Macromedia’s pro forma results for the three and twelve months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, differ from corresponding results reported under U.S. GAAP due to adjustments for the following items reported in its consolidated results from operations:
Non-cash charges for:
• | The amortization of deferred stock compensation resulting from the issuance of stock options to employees at an exercise price below the fair-market value on the date of grant; |
• | The amortization and impairment of acquired developed technology; |
• | The amortization and impairment of intangible assets; and |
• | The write-off of acquired in-process research and development associated with acquisitions. |
Cash charges and gains for:
• | Cash gains from non-marketable cost-basis investments; |
• | Losses on non-marketable cost-basis and available-for-sale investments resulting from other-than-temporary declines in the fair-market value of these investments; |
• | Cash gain on the sale of acquired technology; and |
• | Net charges for certain litigation settlements. |
Pro forma results for the three and twelve months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 reflect an assumed tax rate of 20 percent, reflecting U.S. federal and state income taxes and foreign taxes at rates other than U.S. statutory rates. See the attached reconciliation of GAAP and pro forma results.
