PAR TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have
been prepared by PAR Technology Corporation (the "Company" or "PAR") in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation
S-X pertaining to interim financial statements. Accordingly, these interim
financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required
by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of the Company, such unaudited statements
include all adjustments (which comprise only normal recurring accruals)
necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. The
results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any
future period. The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2006 included in the
Company's December 31, 2006 Annual Report to the Securities and Exchange
Commission on Form 10-K.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management of
the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the
reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period.
Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include: the
carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, identifiable intangible
assets and goodwill, valuation allowances for receivables, inventories,
deferred income tax assets and equity based compensation. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
2. On November 2, 2006, PAR Technology Corporation (the "Company") and its
wholly owned subsidiary, Par-Siva Corporation (f/k/a PAR Vision Systems
Corporation) (the "Subsidiary") acquired substantially all of the assets
and assumed certain liabilities of SIVA Corporation ("SIVA"). The purchase
price of the assets was approximately $6.9 million including estimated
acquisition costs of approximately $177,000. The purchase price consisted
of $1.1 million worth of PAR common stock (125,549 shares of PAR Technology
Corporation common stock issued out of treasury) and the remainder in cash.
The agreement provides for additional contingent purchase price payments
based on certain sales based milestones and other conditions. SIVA, based
in Delray Beach, Florida, is a developer of software solutions for
multi-unit restaurant operations.
On an unaudited proforma basis, assuming the completed acquisitions had
occurred as of the beginning of the period presented, the consolidated
results of the Company would have been as follows (in thousands, except per
share amounts):
For the three months
ended March 31, 2006
--------------------
Net revenues $ 53,057
Net income $ 1,142
Earnings per share:
Basic $ .08
Diluted $ .08
The unaudited proforma financial information presented above gives effect
to purchase accounting adjustments which have resulted or are expected to
result from the acquisition. This proforma information is not necessarily
indicative of the results that would actually have been obtained had the
companies been combined for the period presented.
3. Inventories are primarily used in the manufacture and service of
Hospitality products. The components of inventory, net of related reserves,
consist of the following:
(in thousands)
March 31, December 31,
2007 2006
---------- ----------
Finished goods $ 9,806 $ 9,533
Work in process 1,898 1,667
Component parts 8,829 7,119
Service parts 18,308 17,629
--------- ---------
$ 38,841 $ 35,948
========= =========
At March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company had recorded reserves
for shrinkage, excess and obsolete inventory of $3,611,000 and $3,658,000,
respectively.
4. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R
Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R) on a modified prospective basis. This
standard requires the Company to measure the cost of employee services
received in exchange for equity awards based on the grant date fair value
of the awards. The cost is recognized as compensation expense over the
vesting period of the awards. Total compensation expense included in
operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 was
$137,000 and $43,000, respectively. At March 31, 2007, the unrecognized
compensation expense related to non-vested option awards was $905,000 (net
of estimated forfeitures).
5. Earnings per share are calculated in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share, which specifies the
computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings per
share (EPS). It requires the presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic
EPS excludes all dilution and is based upon the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the
potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to
issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.
The following is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares
outstanding for the basic and diluted EPS computations (in thousands,
except per share data):
For the three months
ended March 31,
--------------------
2007 2006
--------------------
Net income (loss) ................................... $ (1,308) $ 2,012
======== ========
Basic:
Shares outstanding at beginning of period ...... 14,310 14,137
Weighted average shares issued during the period 10 14
-------- --------
Weighted average common shares, basic .......... 14,320 14,151
======== ========
Earnings (loss) per common share, basic ........ $ (.09) $ .14
======== ========
Diluted:
Weighted average common shares, basic .......... 14,320 14,151
Dilutive impact of stock options ............... -- 655
-------- --------
Weighted average common shares, diluted ........ 14,320 14,806
======== ========
Earnings (loss) per common share, diluted ...... $ (.09) $ .14
======== ========
For the three months ended March 31, 2007, 460,046 incremental shares from
the assumed exercise of stock options and 18,300 restricted stock awards
are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because
of the anti-dilution effect on earnings per share.
6. The Company has adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards
Board Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
(FIN 48) effective January 1, 2007. The Company's adoption of FIN 48 on
January 1, 2007, did not have a material impact on the consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
As of March 31, 2007 and January 1, 2007, the Company had an insignificant
amount of unrecognized tax benefits. The Company's policy is to recognize
interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense
in the consolidated statements of operations. The amount of interest and
penalties for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was immaterial. The
Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S.
federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The
Company is no longer subject to U.S. Federal or state income tax
examinations by tax authorities for tax years prior to 2003.
7. The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that have
separate management teams and infrastructures that offer different products
and services.
The Company has two reportable segments, Hospitality and Government. The
Hospitality segment offers integrated solutions to the hospitality
industry. These offerings include industry leading hardware and software
applications utilized in point-of-sale, back of store and corporate office
applications as well as in the hotel/resort/spa marketplace. This segment
also offers customer support including field service, installation,
twenty-four hour telephone support and depot repair. The Government segment
provides technical expertise in the development of advanced technology
prototype systems primarily for the Department of Defense and other
Governmental agencies. It provides services for operating and maintaining
certain U.S. Government-owned communication and test sites, and for
planning, executing and evaluating experiments involving new or advanced
radar systems. It is also involved in developing technology to track mobile
chassis. Intersegment sales and transfers are not significant.
Information as to the Company's segments is set forth below:

of Operations
Forward-Looking Statement
This document contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Any statements in this document that do not
describe historical facts are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements in this document (including forward-looking statements regarding the
continued health of the Hospitality industry, future information technology
outsourcing opportunities, an expected increase in funding by the U.S.
Government relating to the Company's logistics management contracts, the impact
of current world events on our results of operations, the effects of inflation
on our margins, and the effects of interest rate and foreign currency
fluctuations on our results of operations) are made pursuant to the safe harbor
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When we use
words such as "intend," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "plan," "will," or
"expect", we are making forward-looking statements. We believe that the
assumptions and expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are
reasonable, based on information available to us on the date hereof, but we
cannot assure you that these assumptions and expectations will prove to have
been correct or that we will take any action that we presently may be planning.
We have disclosed certain important factors that could cause our actual future
results to differ materially from our current expectation, including a decline
in the volume of purchases made by one or a group of our major customers; risks
in technology development and commercialization; risks of downturns in economic
conditions generally, and in the quick-service sector of the hospitality market
specifically; risks associated with government contracts; risks associated with
competition and competitive pricing pressures; and risks related to foreign
operations. Forward-looking statements made in connection with this report are
necessarily qualified by these factors. We are not undertaking to update or
revise publicly any forward-looking statement if we obtain new information or
upon the occurrence of future events or otherwise.
Overview
PAR is a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of hospitality
technology systems. We are also a provider of engineering services and applied
technology to the Federal Government, and several of its agencies. The primary
end markets for our products and services are:
o Restaurant, hotel/resort/spa, entertainment, and retail industries for
the integrated technologies of transaction processing and data capture
for certain hospitality enterprises
o the U.S. military and a broad range of Federal, State and Local
government agencies
The Company's hospitality products are utilized in several vertical markets in a
variety of applications by numerous customers. The Company encounters
competition in all of its markets (restaurants, hotels, theaters, etc.) and
competes primarily on the basis of product design/features, product
quality/reliability, price, customer service and delivery capability. There has
been a recent trend amongst hospitality technology users to consolidate their
lists of approved vendors to companies that have a global reach, can achieve
quality and delivery standards, have multiple product offerings, R&D capability,
and be competitive with their pricing. PAR believes that its global presence as
a hospitality technology provider is an important competitive advantage as the
Company provides innovative products, with a significant delivery capability
globally to its multinational customers like McDonald's, Yum! Brands and
Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group. In the fourth quarter of 2006 PAR acquired the
assets of SIVA Corporation, a privately held hospitality technology software
company and a cutting edge provider of web-based service oriented architected
software applications to large hospitality organizations in table-service dining
and theme park resorts. Several organizations in hospitality technology believe
that restaurant technology happens at the point-of-sale. PAR fully understands
that to successfully run an enterprise business, a wide range of operations
information is needed--and that information has value to store, field, and
corporate employees beyond accounting. Par-Siva's applications collect data at
the site and then deliver it wherever it is needed throughout the
organization--not as an add-on module, but as an integral component of every
application's design. Today's hospitality organizations are connected like never
before. Par-Siva's offering was designed from the ground up to utilize the
operational knowledge and experience PAR has in hospitality and specifically
restaurants. Par-Siva's applications automate core restaurant processes such as
order entry, food preparation, inventory control, and labor management. The
applications deliver action prompts and performance scorecards. From tracking to
monitoring equipment performance, Par-Siva's offerings support operations.
PAR's strategy is to provide completely integrated technology systems and
services and a high level of customer service in the markets in which it
competes. The Company focuses its research and development efforts to develop
cutting-edge products that meet and exceed our customers' needs and also have
high probability for broader market appeal and success. PAR concentrates upon
efficiency in our operations and controlling costs.
PAR operates two wholly-owned subsidiaries in the Government business
segment, PAR Government Systems Corporation (PGSC) and Rome Research Corporation
(RRC). As a long-standing Government contractor, PAR develops advanced
technology systems for the U.S. Department of Defense and other U.S.
Governmental agencies. Additionally, PAR provides information technology and
communications support services to the U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force and U.S. Army.
PAR focuses its computer-based system design services on providing high quality
technical products and services, ranging from experimental studies to advanced
operational systems, within a variety of areas of research, including radar,
image and signal processing, logistic management systems, and geospatial
services and products. PAR's Government engineering service business provides
management and engineering services that include facilities operation and
management. The Company will continue to execute its strategy of leveraging its
core technical capabilities and performance into related technical areas and an
expanding customer base. The Company will seek to accelerate this growth through
strategic acquisitions of businesses that broaden the Company's technology
and/or business base.
The Company's intention is to continue to expand our customer base and
solidify our leading position in the industries to which we market by:
o Developing integrated solutions
o Continuing to grow our global presence in growth markets
o Focusing on customer needs
o Encouraging entrepreneurial corporate attitude and spirit
o Fostering a mindset of controlling cost
o Pursuing strategic acquisitions
Summary
We believe we can continue to be successful in our two core business
segments -Hospitality and Government- our focus and industry expertise will
allow this to happen. In addition, PAR will continue its investment initiatives
for the remainder of 2007 in three particular areas: the continued development
of the newly acquired SIVA software platform for table service and quick serve
restaurant chains; increasing their distribution channel for hospitality

Results of Operations --
Three Months Ended March 31, 2007 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2006
The Company reported revenues of $47.8 million for the quarter ended March
31, 2007, a decrease of 9% from the $52.6 million reported for the quarter ended
March 31, 2006. The Company's net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 was
$1.3 million, or $.09 diluted net loss per share, compared to net income of $2
million and $.14 diluted net income per share for the same period in 2006.
Product revenues from the Company's Hospitality segment were $16.7 million
for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of 27% from the $23 million
recorded in 2006. This decrease was due to a $6.8 million decline in domestic
product sales primarily due to a continued delay in hardware orders from a major
customer pending the release of that customer's new third party software. The
decline was also due to the Company's delay in replacing hardware and software
business associated with last year's orders from two new customers. This drop in
domestic revenue was partially offset by a $501,000 increase in international
product sales. This increase was the result of growth in sales to the Company's
restaurant customers in Asia and Canada.
Customer service revenues are also generated by the Company's Hospitality
segment. The Company's service offerings include installation, software
maintenance, training, twenty-four hour help desk support and various depot and
on-site service options. Customer service revenues were $15.5 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 2007, a 13% increase from $13.7 million reported for the
same period in 2006. The growth is primarily related to the award of a new
service contract with a major customer in October of 2006.
Contract revenues from the Company's Government segment were $15.6 million
for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of 1% when compared to the
$15.8 million recorded in the same period in 2006. This minor decline was due to
the delay in the start of some new awards in the information technology
outsourcing area. These outsourcing operations provided by the Company directly
support U.S. Navy, Air Force and Army operations as they seek to convert their
military information technology communications facilities into contractor-run
operations and to meet new requirements with contractor support.
Product margins for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 were 38.3%, a decrease
of 610 basis points from the 44.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. This
decrease in margins was primarily attributable to lower software revenue in 2007
when compared to 2006 and to unfavorable absorption of fixed manufacturing costs
as the result of a decline in production volume.
Customer Service margins were 21.7% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007
compared to 22.1% for the same period in 2006. This decline is due to lower than
planned installation revenue as a result of the decrease in product sales. This
was partially offset by an increase in software maintenance.
Contract margins were 6.7% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 versus 7%
for the same period in 2006. This decrease was due to minor fluctuations in
margins achieved on various fixed price contracts. The most significant
components of contract costs in 2007 and 2006 were labor and fringe benefits.
For 2007, labor and fringe benefits were $12.6 million or 86% of contract costs
compared to $11.7 million or 80% of contract costs for the same period in 2006.
Selling, general and administrative expenses are virtually all related to
the Company's Hospitality segment. Selling, general and administrative expenses
for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 were $8.7 million, an increase of 8% from
the $8.1 million expense for the same period in 2006. This increase was
primarily due to a rise in sales and marketing expenses associated with
restaurant products as the Company is investing in its international
infrastructure and in the expansion of its dealer channel.
Research and development expenses relate primarily to the Company's
Hospitality segment. Research and development expenses were $3.8 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 2007, an increase of 32% from the $2.9 million recorded
in 2006. The increase was primarily attributable to the Company's continued
research and development in its next generation software products for its
restaurant customers. The platform for this next generation of products was
acquired from SIVA Corporation in the fourth quarter of 2006.
Amortization of identifiable intangible assets was $390,000 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2007 compared to $307,000 for 2006. The increase is primarily
due to the amortization of intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisition
of SIVA Corporation on November 2, 2006.
Other income, net, was $240,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007
compared to $157,000 for the same period in 2006. Other income primarily
includes rental income and foreign currency gains and losses. This increase is
primarily due to higher foreign currency gains in 2007 compared to 2006.
Interest expense represents interest charged on the Company's short-term
borrowing requirements from banks and from long-term debt. Interest expense was
$222,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 as compared to $85,000 in 2006.
The Company experienced higher average borrowings in 2007 when compared to 2006
under its lines of credit with banks. In addition, the Company entered into a $6
million term loan in the fourth quarter of 2006 to finance the SIVA acquisition.
This is partially offset by a lower average borrowing rate in 2007 when compared
to 2006.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company's effective income tax
rate was 37.3%, compared to 36.2% in 2006. The variance from the federal
statutory rate in 2007 and 2006 was primarily due to state income taxes, offset
by benefits related to export sales as well as tax benefits related to domestic
production activities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's primary sources of liquidity have been cash flow from
operations and lines of credit with various banks. Cash used in operations was
$1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 compared to cash used of $6
million for 2006. In 2007, cash was primarily used to fund inventory growth and
the operating loss for the period. This was partially offset by a reduction in
accounts receivable. In 2006, cash flow was negatively impacted by the timing of
customer receipts and the payment of employee bonuses.
Cash used in investing activities was $733,000 for the quarter ended March
31, 2007 versus $508,000 for the same period in 2006. In 2007, capital
expenditures were $332,000 and were primarily for manufacturing and research and
development equipment. Capitalized software costs relating to software
development of Hospitality segment products were $401,000 in 2007. In 2006,
capital expenditures were $448,000 and were principally for manufacturing and
information technology equipment and software for internal use. Capitalized
software costs relating to software development of Hospitality segment products
were $60,000 in 2006.
Cash provided by financing activities was $297,000 for the quarter ended
March 31, 2007 versus $3.7 million in 2006. In 2007, the Company increased its
short-term borrowings by $157,000 and decreased its long-term debt by $26,000.
The Company also benefited $166,000 from the exercise of employee stock options.
In 2006, the Company increased its short-term bank borrowings by $3.6 million
and benefited $145,000 from the exercise of employee stock options.
The Company has an aggregate availability of $20,000,000 in unsecured bank
lines of credit. One line totaling $12,500,000 bears interest at the bank
borrowing rate (6.3% at March 31, 2007). The second line of $7,500,000 allows
the Company, at its option, to borrow funds at the LIBOR rate plus the
applicable interest rate spread or at the bank's prime lending rate (6.3% at
March 31, 2007). These facilities contains certain loan covenants including a
leverage ratio of not greater than 4 to 1 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of
not less than 3.5 to 1. These lines expire in April 2009. The Company was in
compliance with all loan covenants on March 31, 2007. At March 31, 2007, there
was $7,870,000 outstanding under these lines. The weighted average interest rate
paid by the Company during 2007 was 6.3% and 6.9% during 2006.
In 2006, the Company borrowed $6,000,000 under an unsecured term loan
agreement with a bank in connection with the acquisition of SIVA Corporation.
The loan provides for interest only payments in the first year and escalating
principal payments through 2012. The loan bears interest at the LIBOR rate plus
the applicable interest rate spread (6.3% at March 31, 2007).
The Company has a $1,922,000 mortgage collateralized by certain real
estate. The annual mortgage payment including interest totals $226,000. The
mortgage bears interest at a fixed rate of 7% and matures in 2010.
During fiscal year 2007, the Company anticipates that its capital
requirements will be approximately $2 million. The Company does not usually
enter into long term contracts with its major Hospitality segment customers. The
Company commits to purchasing inventory from its suppliers based on a
combination of internal forecasts and the actual orders from customers. This
process, along with good relations with suppliers, minimizes the working capital
investment required by the Company. Although the Company lists two major
customers, McDonald's and Yum! Brands, it sells to hundreds of individual
franchisees of these corporations, each of which is individually responsible for
its own debts. These broadly made sales substantially reduce the impact on the
Company's liquidity if one individual franchisee reduces the volume of its
purchases from the Company in a given year. The Company, based on internal
forecasts, believes its existing cash, line of credit facilities and its
anticipated operating cash flow will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements
through at least the next twelve months. However, the Company may be required,
or could elect, to seek additional funding prior to that time. The Company's
future capital requirements will depend on many factors including its rate of
revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending to support product development
efforts, expansion of sales and marketing, the timing of introductions of new
products and enhancements to existing products, and market acceptance of its
products. The Company cannot assure that additional equity or debt financing
will be available on acceptable terms or at all. The Company's sources of
liquidity beyond twelve months, in management's opinion, will be its cash
balances on hand at that time, funds provided by operations, funds available
through its lines of credit and the long-term credit facilities that it can
arrange.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company's consolidated financial statements are based on the
application of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). GAAP
requires the use of estimates, assumptions, judgments and subjective
interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets,
liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. The Company believes its use
of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are
consistently applied. Valuations based on estimates are reviewed for
reasonableness and adequacy on a consistent basis throughout the Company.
Primary areas where financial information of the Company is subject to the use
of estimates, assumptions and the application of judgment include revenue
recognition, accounts receivable, inventories, intangible assets, taxes and
equity-based compensation.
Revenue Recognition Policy
The Company recognizes revenue generated by the Hospitality segment using
the guidance from SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, "Revenue
Recognition" and the AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, "Software Revenue
Recognition." Product revenues consist of sales of the Company's standard
point-of-sale and property management systems of the Hospitality segment.
Product revenues include both hardware and software sales. The Company also
records service revenues relating to its standard point-of-sale and property
management systems of the Hospitality segment.
Hardware
Revenue recognition on hardware sales occurs upon delivery to the customer
site (or when shipped for systems that are not installed by the Company) as
under SAB 104, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has
occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably
assured.
Software
Revenue recognition on software sales generally occurs upon delivery to the
customer site (or when shipped for systems that are not installed by the
Company) as under SOP 97-2, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is
reasonably assured. For software sales where the Company is the sole party that
has the proprietary knowledge to install the software, revenue is recognized
upon installation and when the system is ready to go live.
Service
Service revenue consists of installation and training services, support
maintenance, and field and depot repair. Installation and training service
revenue are based upon standard hourly/daily rates and revenue is recognized as
the services are performed. Support maintenance and field and depot repair are
provided to customers either on a time and materials basis or under a
maintenance contract. Services provided on a time and materials basis are
recognized as the services are performed. Service revenues from maintenance
contracts are recognized ratably over the underlying contract period.
The individual product and service offerings that are included in
arrangements with our customers are identified and priced separately to the
customer based upon the stand alone price for each individual product or service
sold in the arrangement irrespective of the combination of products and services
which are included in a particular arrangement. As such, the units of accounting
are based on each individual product and service sold, and revenue is allocated
to each element based on vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair
value. VSOE of fair value for each individual product and service is based on
separate individual prices of these products and services. The sales price used
to establish fair value is the sales price of the element when it is sold
individually in a separate arrangement and not as a separate element in a
multiple element arrangement.
Contracts
The Company recognizes revenue in its Government segment using the guidance
from SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition. The Company's
contract revenues generated by the Government segment result primarily from
contract services performed for the U.S. Government under a variety of cost-plus
fixed fee, time-and-material and fixed-price contracts. Revenue on cost-plus
fixed fee contracts is recognized based on allowable costs for labor hours
delivered, as well as other allowable costs plus the applicable fee. Revenue on
time and material contracts is recognized by multiplying the number of direct
labor hours delivered in the performance of the contract by the contract billing
rates and adding other direct costs as incurred. Revenue from fixed-price
contracts is recognized as labor hours are delivered which approximates the
straight-line basis of the life of the contract. The Company's obligation under
these contracts is to provide labor hours to conduct research or to staff
facilities with no other deliverables or performance obligations. Anticipated
losses on all contracts are recorded in full when identified. Unbilled accounts
receivable are stated in the Company's consolidated financial statements at
their estimated realizable value. Contract costs, including indirect expenses,
are subject to audit and adjustment through negotiations between the Company and
U.S. Government representatives.
Accounts Receivable-Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Allowances for doubtful accounts are based on estimates of probable losses
related to accounts receivable balances. The establishment of allowances
requires the use of judgment and assumptions regarding probable losses on
receivable balances. We continuously monitor collections and payments from our
customers and maintain a provision for estimated credit losses based on our
historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we have
identified. While such credit losses have historically been within our
expectations and appropriate reserves have been established, we cannot guarantee
that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have
experienced in the past. Thus, if the financial condition of our customers were
to deteriorate, our actual losses may exceed our estimates, and additional
allowances would be required.
Inventories
The Company's inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with
cost determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The Company uses
certain estimates and judgments and considers several factors including product
demand and changes in technology to provide for excess and obsolescence reserves
to properly value inventory.
Capitalized Software Development Costs
The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the development of
computer software used in its Hospitality segment under the requirements of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. Software
development costs incurred prior to establishing technological feasibility are
charged to operations and included in research and development costs. Software
development costs incurred after establishing technological feasibility are
capitalized and amortized over the estimated economic life when the product is
available for general release to customers.
Goodwill
Following Financial Accounting Standards Board issuance of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,
(SFAS 142), the Company tests all goodwill for impairment annually, or more
frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment. The Company has
elected to annually test for impairment in the fourth quarter of its fiscal
year.
Taxes
The Company has significant amounts of deferred tax assets that are
reviewed for recoverability and valued accordingly. These assets are evaluated
by using estimates of future taxable income and the impact of tax planning
strategies. Valuations related to tax accruals and assets can be impacted by
changes to tax codes, changes in statutory tax rates and the Company's estimates
of its future taxable income levels.
Equity-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for equity based compensation by recognizing expense
over the vesting period for any non-vested stock option awards granted. Stock
option grants are valued by using a Black-Scholes method at the date of the
grant. There are assumptions and estimates made by management which go into the
valuation of the options granted, such as volatility, vesting period, and
forfeiture rate. The Company recognizes expense on options granted using a
ratable method over the vesting period. Restricted stock grants are expensed
over the vesting period, which is determined at the date of the grant.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements"
("SFAS 157"), which provides guidance for measuring the fair value of assets and
liabilities, as well as requires expanded disclosures about fair value
measurements. SFAS 157 indicates that fair value should be determined based on
the assumptions marketplace participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability, and provides additional guidelines to consider in determining the
market-based measurement. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS 157 on
January 1, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS
157 on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" ("SFAS 159"). SFAS 159 permits all
entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election
dates. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal
year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the
impact of adopting SFAS 159 on its consolidated financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
INFLATION
Inflation had little effect on revenues and related costs during the first
three months of 2007. Management anticipates that margins will be maintained at
acceptable levels to minimize the affects of inflation, if any.
INTEREST RATES
As of March 31, 2007, the Company has $5.7 million in variable long-term
debt and $8.2 million in variable short-term debt. The Company believes that an
adverse change in interest rates of 100 basis points would not have a material
impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows.
FOREIGN CURRENCY
The Company's primary exposures relate to certain non-dollar denominated
sales and operating expenses in Europe and Asia. These primary currencies are
the Euro, the Australian dollar and the Singapore dollar. Management believes
that foreign currency fluctuations should not have a significant impact on our
business, financial conditions, results of operations or cash flows due to the
low volume of business affected by foreign currencies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out
an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company' s "disclosure controls and
procedures" (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e)) of the Company. These officers have concluded that our disclosure
controls and procedures are effective. As such, we believe that all material
information relating to us and our consolidated subsidiaries required to be
disclosed in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time
period, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as
appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls.
There was no change in the Company's internal controls over financial
reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act during the quarter
ended March 31, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, such internal controls over financial reporting.

PAR TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
CERTIFICATION PURSUANT TO 18 U.S.C. SECTION 1350,
AS ADOPTED PURSUANT TO
SECTION 906 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002
In connection with the Quarterly Report of PAR Technology Corporation (the
