This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains, in addition to historical
information, forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
The Company's actual results could differ significantly from the results
discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or
contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed
in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, and include, among others, those discussed under the
heading "Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition."
INDUSTRY BACKGROUND
The personal computer has evolved from a stand-alone desktop computing
device to become an important tool for facilitating communications, information
sharing and group productivity. This evolution has been enabled by the addition
of network connectivity to personal computers and is driven by basic business
needs for better communications and organizational productivity. As a result,
the PC has become a tool to connect people's desktops to shared repositories of
information and to other people, regardless of location, network or type of
computer.
The term used to describe the technology for global connectivity is
"inter-networking". Inter-networking had its origins in the public Internet, a
world-wide "network of networks" which allows communication between different
organizations and locations, each with its own individual network of computers.
The application of this same inter-networking technology within a company on its
own computer networks is known as an "Intranet", to distinguish it from the
larger public Internet.
2
3
The key benefit of inter-networking technology is the more timely and
complete communication of electronic information within and between
organizations. The specific tasks facilitated by inter-networking are numerous
and include basic functions such as universal electronic mail, file transfer and
file sharing capabilities, remote data access, login to remote computers and
information publishing.
Widespread popular interest in the public Internet has been enhanced by
the emergence of the World-Wide Web, which has given an attractive graphical
front end to information that can be published using inter-networking
technology. Inter-networking is actually much more than just the Web, however.
It is comprised of many different applications which must communicate with one
another, each according to its function, and following certain standards or
conventions which insure interoperability.
In order for a network to function properly, all connected devices must
follow rules or "protocols" that govern access to the network and communication
with other devices. TCP/IP is the name of the protocol family used by all
inter-networking devices and applications because it is an open
(non-proprietary) protocol capable of linking disparate environments. NetManage
was one of the first software vendors to deliver the TCP/IP protocol and related
applications for the Microsoft Windows platform. Selling primarily to the
business user, NetManage has promoted standards based on its implementation of
TCP/IP that have been adopted by the industry at large. The most notable example
is the Windows Sockets, or "WinSock" interface which is used today by a wide
range of Windows inter-networking software vendors including Microsoft
Corporation ("Microsoft").
The Company believes that because of the open and interoperable
characteristics of inter-networking technology, the use of TCP/IP based
Intranets and the software that enables them will continue to grow significantly
within organizations, and may emerge as the dominant corporate networking
technology -- replacing other proprietary "LAN" (Local Area Network) technology
from vendors such as Novell, Inc. ("Novell"), International Business Machines
("IBM"), and Digital Equipment Corporation ("Digital").
A corporate Intranet may be applied to a wide range of business
problems. Within organizations, PCs must be connected not only to other PCs via
LANs, but also to workstations, servers, minicomputers and mainframes, many of
which may run different operating system software and connect to different
physical networks. In addition, more companies are seeking ways to link their
computer systems directly with those of vendors, customers and other business
partners to enhance the flow of information and reduce expenses.
Inter-networking also facilitates activities such as mobile computing by
allowing users to use and access more effectively all of a company's computer
systems from a remote location.
The required software to implement an Intranet includes applications
for the desktop, the software which transports information over the wires
(TCP/IP), the servers at the other end, and management and development tools to
create and administer a network of this type. An easy-to-use, intuitive
interface extends the use of these software components to a large, non-technical
audience and facilitates adoption of this new technology.
The Company has targeted its products to serve three business market
segments within what is now called the Intranet. These three segments are the
UNIX connectivity business, the IBM host connectivity business, and the
messaging and collaboration business. The Company believes that the markets for
these PC connectivity solutions are large and fast growing segments where the
Company has established products, reputation and expertise.
PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGY
NetManage develops and markets a suite of applications designed to
allow PC users to communicate across diverse networking environments. Targeting
initially the Microsoft Windows platform, the Company now sells products which
run on Microsoft Windows 3.1, Windows 95, and Windows NT. The NetManage product
line includes client applications, TCP/IP network transport software, server
applications and tools for developers and network managers. These software
products are designed to meet the needs of the entire spectrum of corporate
customers including, end-users, software developers and system administrators.
With this breadth and depth of product offerings, the Company believes it is
well positioned to serve the needs of business users with a complete integrated
solution for Intranet software sales, service and support.

The capabilities of the Company's products include:
Ease of use - The Company's goal is to create applications for
non-technical users. Accordingly, the native look and feel of NetManage
products is designed to be intuitive to the user and compatible with the
operation of other familiar desktop programs, thereby masking the
complexities arising from communicating with a variety of systems and
facilitating use of the product without requiring special training. The
products are designed to be setup on any desktop in five minutes and to
determine with minimum user intervention all the appropriate settings and
installation parameters for each desktop's configuration and network. For
corporate users, the cost of training, installation, and support can
exceed software acquisition costs. The benefit of ease of use is
significant to NetManage's target market.
Integration - NetManage offers a fully integrated suite of applications.
Customers do not have to buy terminal emulation from one vendor, file
transfer from another, electronic mail from yet a third vendor, and a web
browser downloaded from the Internet -- each with its own setup, user
interface and feature set. The common characteristics of the product
suite tend to increase user satisfaction and product utilization.
Further, the client applications are built in such a way as to be
manageable by a system administrator, and compatible with custom Intranet
applications built using NetManage developer toolkits. A well integrated
product lowers the cost of ownership and increases product value to the
customer.
Functionality - The depth and completeness of the applications in
NetManage products is designed to compete with `best of class'
functionality from specialist vendors in each category. The value
proposition of the NetManage offering is enhanced by eliminating
multi-source product purchases with no compromise on advanced software
functionality. The economic proposition for the customer is enhanced by
purchasing software and service from a single vendor.
Adherence to Standards - The very foundation of the Internet is
predicated upon the notion that any client can talk to any server, and
that all APIs (Application Program Interfaces) and protocols are
published as free open standards. In the corporate computing environment
it is impossible to guarantee a common set of software on every client
and every server. NetManage's commitment to open standards insures that
the plug and play interoperability that has made the Internet successful
extends to the corporate Intranet as well.
The Company's principal product line is marketed under the name
Chameleon. The Chameleon family of products encompasses a suite of over 50
integrated connectivity applications. These applications deliver standards based
solutions for Host Access, Messaging, Group Collaboration and Desktop
Management. Other key products include software for terminal emulation and host
access, networked information management and network application development.
The Company's products include:
ChameleonNFS/X A complete PC-to-UNIX connectivity solution for
Windows, Windows NT, and Windows 95. Includes an NFS
client and server and an X-Server.
Chameleon HostLink Terminal emulation and host connectivity to
legacy mainframe, and mid-range systems using SNA or
async protocols and featuring a migration path to
TCP/IP.
Chameleon 3270LT A low-cost, small-footprint solution for PC-to-IBM
mainframe connectivity.
ECCO Pro An award winning networked personal information
manager, featuring group calendaring and scheduling
capabilities.
Z-Mail Messaging An open-standards, cross-platform e-mail solution
Family that includes clients and a server.

Substantially all of the Company's net revenues have been derived from
the sales of products that provide inter-networking applications for the
Microsoft Windows environment and are marketed primarily to Windows users. As a
result, sales of the Company's products would be materially adversely affected
by market developments adverse to Windows. In addition, the Company's strategy
of developing products based on the Windows operating environment is
substantially dependent on its ability to gain pre-release access to, and to
develop expertise in, current and future Windows developments by Microsoft. No
assurance can be given as to the ability of the Company to provide on a timely
basis products compatible with future Windows releases.
The Company's competitors could seek to expand their product offerings
by designing and selling products using TCP/IP or other technology that could
render the Company's products obsolete or adversely affect sales of the
Company's products. For example, Microsoft, a company with significantly greater
financial, development and marketing resources, has recently introduced a
personal information manager and has included this product in a suite of
software. This development may adversely affect the Company's sales of its own
products either by directly affecting customer purchasing decisions or by making
potential customers delay their purchases of the Company's products.
SALES AND MARKETING
The Company's marketing strategy is to be identified as the preferred
supplier of an integrated set of TCP/IP applications, servers and development
tools for Microsoft Windows operating systems. The Company's products are
marketed and sold in the United States and internationally by the Company's
direct sales force and authorized channel partners.
In the United States, the Company combines an aggressive program of
advertising and promotion with direct sales through a telephone-based sales
force, assisted by designated personnel specifically assigned to the needs of
major accounts. As part of its continuing strategy to develop multiple
distribution channels, the Company expects to increasingly utilize resellers,
particularly value added resellers and systems integrators, in addition to
distributors and original equipment manufacturers. The Company expects that
indirect sales will grow as a percentage of both domestic and total revenues and
that any material increase in the Company's indirect sales as a percentage of
revenues will adversely affect the Company's average selling prices and gross
margins due to the lower unit costs that are typically charged when selling
through indirect channels. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to attract resellers and distributors who will be able to market the
Company's products effectively and will be qualified to provide timely and
cost-effective customer support and service. The Company ships products to
resellers and distributors on a purchase-order basis, and many of the Company's
resellers and distributors carry competing product lines. Therefore, there can
be no assurance that any reseller or distributor will continue to represent the
Company's products, and the inability to recruit or retain important resellers
or distributors could adversely affect the Company's results of operations.
Internationally, the Company has sales offices in London; Munich;
Paris; Tokyo; and Haifa, Israel. The Company also utilizes local distributors
internationally. The Company supports the sales activity of these sales offices
and distributors in target countries through localization of products and sales
material, local training and participation in local trade shows.
In 1996, the Company derived approximately 33% of net revenues from
international sales, including export sales. The Company believes that the
potential international markets for its products are substantial, based on the
extent to which Windows and TCP/IP are used internationally. Accordingly, the
Company localizes its products for use in the native language of target
countries. Kanji, French, Korean, Spanish and German versions of Chameleon have
been developed and are being sold. Further, the Company has adopted its software
to support computing standards that are unique to these countries, such as the
NEC PC in Japan. The Company will continue to target major European and Asian
countries for additional sales and marketing activity and to expand the use of
its local sales offices and Israel subsidiary in the support of its
international sales. While the Company expects that international sales will
continue to account for a significant portion of its net revenues, there can be
no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain or increase international
market demand for the Company's products or that the Company's distributors will
be able to effectively meet that demand.
5

Risks inherent in the Company's international business activities
generally include unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, tariffs and
other trade barriers, costs and risks of localizing products for foreign
countries, longer accounts receivable payment cycles, difficulties in managing
international operations, currency fluctuations, potentially adverse tax
consequences, repatriation of earnings and the burdens of complying with a wide
variety of foreign laws. There can be no assurance that such factors will not
have an adverse effect on the Company's future international sales and,
consequently, on the Company's results of operations.
CUSTOMER SUPPORT
The Company's domestic support organization consists of an experienced
staff of engineers providing support by telephone from the Company's facilities
in Cupertino and San Diego, California; Nashua, New Hampshire; and Bellevue,
Washington. Both telephone support and regular update releases of the software
are provided to customers who purchase an annual maintenance agreement. The
sales and the customer support organizations at NetManage work together closely
to provide customer satisfaction. Telephone support hours are from 5 a.m. to 6
p.m. Pacific Time, complemented by electronic mail, fax and Compuserve access
service.
International customers are supported by local distributors who are
trained by the Company and also are supported by Company personnel located in
Haifa, Israel and the European and Japanese sales offices.
COMPETITION
The market for the Company's products is intensely competitive and
characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards,
changes in customers' needs and frequent new product introductions. To maintain
or improve its position in this industry, the Company must continue to enhance
its current products and develop new products on a timely and cost-effective
basis. Any failure by the Company to anticipate or respond adequately to changes
in technology and customer preferences, or any significant delays in product
development or introduction, would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's results of operations. The failure to develop on a timely basis these
or other enhancements incorporating new functionality could cause customers to
delay purchase of the Company's current products and thereby adversely affect
the Company's results of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be successful in developing new products or enhancing its existing products
on a timely basis, or that such new products or product enhancements will
achieve market acceptance.
The Company competes directly with providers of Windows
inter-networking applications for the TCP/IP protocol such as FTP Software, IBM,
Microsoft, Novell, and Sun Microsystems, Inc. as well as several other
companies. The Company also competes with providers of host access software such
as Attachmate Corporation, Wall Data, Inc., Hummingbird Communications, Ltd. and
WRQ, Inc.
The inter-networking marketplace has also been identified as a key
market by several other companies, including Netscape Communications
Corporation, Oracle Corporation and others. It is imperative that the Company's
development efforts remain competitive in this marketplace, particularly given
that the market is rapidly evolving and subject to rapid technological change.
There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to do
so.
Many of the Company's competitors have substantially greater financial,
technical, sales, marketing and other resources, as well as greater name
recognition and a larger customer base, than the Company. The market for the
Company's products is characterized by significant price competition and the
Company anticipates that it will face increasing pricing pressures from current
competitors in the future. Moreover, given that there are low barriers to entry
into the software market and that the market is rapidly evolving and subject to
rapid technological change, the Company believes that competition will persist
and intensify in the future. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to provide products that compare favorably with the
products of the Company's competitors or that competitive pressures will not
require the Company to reduce its prices. The Company has recently experienced
price declines for its products, contributing to lower revenues in 1996 as
compared to prior periods. Any further material reduction in the price of the
Company's products would negatively affect gross margins as a percentage of net
revenues and would require the Company to increase software unit sales
6
7
in order to maintain net revenues at existing levels. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be successful in doing so.
PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
The Company relies primarily on a combination of copyright and
trademark laws, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures and contractual
provisions to protect its proprietary rights. The Company seeks to protect its
software, documentation and other written materials under patent, trade secret
and copyright laws, which afford only limited protection. Despite the Company's
efforts to protect its proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to
copy aspects of the Company's products or to obtain and use information that the
Company regards as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of the Company's
products is difficult, and while the Company is unable to determine the extent
to which piracy of its software products exists, software piracy can be expected
to be a persistent problem. In selling its products, the Company relies
primarily on "shrink wrap" licenses that are not signed by licensees and,
therefore, may be unenforceable under the laws of certain jurisdictions. In
addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect the Company's
proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States.
There can be no assurance that the Company's means of protecting its proprietary
rights will be adequate or that the Company's competitors will not independently
develop similar technology. In addition, the Company has received, and may
receive in the future, communications from third parties asserting that the
Company's products infringe, or may infringe, the proprietary rights of third
parties, seeking indemnification against such infringement or indicating that
the Company may be interested in obtaining a license from such third parties.
There can be no assurance that any of such claims would not result in protracted
and costly litigation.
The Company believes that, due to the rapid pace of innovation within
its industry, factors such as the technological and creative skills of its
personnel are more important to establishing and maintaining a technology
leadership position within the industry than are the various legal means of
protecting its technology. The Company believes that its products and technology
do not infringe any existing proprietary rights of others, although there can be
no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement claims in the
future.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 1996, the Company had a total of 632 full-time
employees, of whom 305 were engaged in sales, marketing and technical support,
88 in general management, administration and finance, 231 in software
development and engineering and 8 in production. None of the Company's employees
are subject to a collective bargaining agreement, and the Company has not
experienced any work stoppage. The Company believes that its employee relations
are good.
The majority of the Company's employee workforce is located in the
extremely competitive employment markets of the Silicon Valley in California and
in Haifa, Israel. During the latter half of 1996, the Company experienced high
attrition at all levels and across all functions of the Company. The attrition
experienced by the Company was attributable to various factors including, among
others, industry-wide demand exceeding supply for experienced engineering and
sales professionals. The Company has and will continue to address the issue of
attrition, and in fact in January 1997, repriced the majority of its outstanding
stock options in an effort to retain its employees and become competitive in the
extremely competitive employment market. Managing employee attrition,
integrating acquired operations and products and expanding both the geographic
area of its customer base and operations have resulted in substantial demands on
the Company's management resources. The Company's future operating results will
be dependent in part on its ability to attract and retain its employee
workforce, train and manage its management and employee base, and continue to
implement and improve its operating and financial controls. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to manage such challenges successfully.

ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
On January 9, 1997, a securities class action complaint, Head, et al.
v. NetManage, Inc., et al., No. 07763295, was filed in the Superior Court of
California, Santa Clara County, against the Company and certain of its directors
and current and former officers. On January 10, 1997, the same plaintiffs filed
a securities class action complaint, Head, et al. v. NetManage, Inc., et al.,
No. C-97-0109 CW, in the United States District Court for the Northern District
of California, against the same defendants. Both complaints allege that, between
July 25, 1995 and January 11, 1996, the defendants made false or misleading
statements of material fact about the Company's prospects, and failed to follow
generally accepted accounting principles. The state court complaint asserts
claims under California state law; the federal court complaint asserts claims
under the federal securities laws. Both complaints seek an unspecified amount of
damages. The Company believes there is no merit to either case and intends to
defend the cases vigorously. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to prevail in the lawsuits, or that the pendency of the lawsuits will not
adversely affect the Company's operations. As the outcome of this matter cannot
be reasonably determined, the Company has not accrued for any potential loss
contingencies.
On March 21, 1997, a securities class action complaint, Interactive
Data Systems, Inc., et al. v. NetManage, Inc., et al., No. CV764945, was filed
in the Superior Court of California, Santa Clara County, against the Company and
certain of its directors and officers. The complaint alleges that, between April
18, 1996 and July 18, 1996, the defendants violated California state law by
making false or misleading statements of material fact about the Company's
prospects and finances. The complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages.
The Company believes there is no merit to the case and intends to defend it
vigorously. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to prevail
in the lawsuit, or that the pendency of the lawsuit will not adversely affect
the Company's operations. As the outcome of this matter cannot be reasonably
determined, the Company has not accrued for any potential loss contingencies.
The Company may be contingently liable with respect to certain asserted
and unasserted claims that arise during the normal course of business. In the
opinion of management, the outcome of all other such matters presently known to
management will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,

ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
This "Annual Report" contains, in addition to historical information,
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Such
forward-looking statements include, among others, statements regarding expected
fluctuations in revenues and percentages of revenues from international markets,
indirect sales channels and services, and statements regarding expected declines
in operating expenses and capital spending. The Company's actual results could
differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking
statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include,
among others stated herein, that the markets for the Company's products could
grow more slowly than the Company believes, or that the Company will not be able
to take advantage of growth in those markets. In addition, there is no assurance
that the Company's organizational changes and plans for 1997 will prove
successful, that the Company's existing products will continue to meet with
customer acceptance, that the Company will not suffer increased competitive
pressures, that corporate buying decisions will not be influenced by the actions
of the Company's competitors or other market factors, or that the Company will
return to profitability and growth. Additional factors are identified under the
heading "Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition". The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
OVERVIEW
NetManage, Inc. (the "Company") develops, markets and supports an
integrated set of application, server, and development tool software for the
Microsoft Windows, Windows 95, and Windows NT platforms. The Company's
standards-based products provide TCP/IP and SNA host access, UNIX access
including NFS and X, and ActiveX-based development. The Company's products
include the Chameleon ATX family (Chameleon HostLink, Chameleon NFS/X), ECCO
Pro, and the Z-Mail messaging family. Its products are sold and serviced
worldwide by the Company's direct sales force, international subsidiaries, and
authorized channel partners. Since the Company's inception, revenues from the
Chameleon family of products have represented substantially all of the Company's
revenues, and the Company expects that revenues from these products will
continue to account for a substantial portion of the Company's revenues for the
foreseeable future.
In July 1996, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Maximum Information, Inc. ("MaxInfo"), in exchange for shares of the Company's
common stock. This transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests
during the third quarter of 1996. The operations of MaxInfo, however, were not
material to the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial
position and, therefore, the historical financial statements have not been
restated to reflect the acquisition retroactively. Accordingly, the operations
of MaxInfo from the date of acquisition forward have been recorded in the
Company's consolidated financial statements.
In November 1996, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
AGE Logic, Inc. ("AGE") in exchange for shares of the Company's common stock.
The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests and accordingly, the
Company's consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31,
1995, 1994 and 1993 have been restated to combine the results of AGE and the
Company. The Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1992
have not been restated, however, as the results of operations for AGE were not
materially significant to the Company's consolidated financial statements. The
Company also acquired all of the outstanding stock of Syzygy Communications,
Inc. ("Syzygy"), in exchange for shares of the Company's common stock, in
October 1995. This transaction was also accounted for as a pooling of interests.
The operations of Syzygy, however, were not material to the Company's
consolidated results of operations and financial position and, therefore, the
historical financial statements have not been restated to reflect the
acquisition retroactively. Accordingly, the operations of Syzygy from the date
of acquisition forward have been recorded in the Company's consolidated
financial statements.
In 1994, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Arabesque
Software, Inc. ("Arabesque") and Ariana, S.A. ("Ariana"). These transactions
were accounted for as purchases and the operations of Arabesque and
11
12
Ariana from the dates of acquisition forward have been recorded in the Company's
consolidated financial statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company experienced a significant decline in net revenues and net
income during the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the prior year.
The decline in net revenues primarily reflects increased competition, pricing
pressures and general confusion in the marketplace resulting from rapidly
changing technology and product introductions. In addition, the decline reflects
the Company's lack of success in marketing and selling its products in the
United States and Japan in particular, and also reflects the inability to
realize any significant revenues from the Company's recent acquisitions of
products and technology. Operating expenses for 1996 included increased costs
related to the Company's acquisition activity, particularly headcount-related
costs, and increased costs related to the Company's investment in expanding its
direct corporate sales and support functions in the United States, neither of
which has yet produced the expected results in terms of increased net revenues.
In addition, operating expenses for 1996 included a fourth quarter charge of
$13.4 million for the write off of in-process research and development in
connection with the purchases of technology from Applicom Software Industries
(1990) Ltd. and U.S. Computer Software, Inc. (see Note 3 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements). Operating expense levels are based in part
on the Company's expectations as to future revenues and to a large extent are
fixed. Operating expense growth, coupled with the significant decline in net
revenues, resulted in a net loss of $5.7 million for the year ended December 31,
1996. Operating expenses are expected to decline in terms of absolute dollars in
the future. Such operating expenses may increase, however, in the future as a
percentage of net revenues in the event the Company's revenues decline more than
its operating expenses. While the Company continues to adjust its operations to
address these issues, there can be no assurance that net revenues or net income
will stabilize or improve in the future.

Net revenues
Historically substantially all of the Company's net revenues have been
derived from software license fees. Service revenues have been primarily
attributable to maintenance agreements associated with licenses. During the year
ended December 31, 1996, however, license fees declined significantly and
service revenues increased in absolute dollars year over year by approximately
14%.
License fees decreased both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of
net revenues during the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the same
period of 1995. The decline in license fees was primarily attributable to
increased competition, heightened pricing pressures and the general confusion
within the marketplace resulting from rapidly changing technology and product
introductions, the delayed release of Windows NT 4.0, and the slow adoption of
Windows 95 in corporate accounts, all of which contributed to delayed buying
decisions, particularly by corporate users. In addition, the decline reflects
the Company's lack of success in marketing and selling its products in the
United States and Japan in particular, and also reflects the inability of the
Company to realize any significant revenues from its recent acquisitions of
products and technology. These factors may lead to lower unit volumes as well as
lower average prices for the foreseeable future. While the Company has been
adjusting its operations to address these issues, there can be no assurance that
revenues will stabilize or increase in the future. Service revenues increased in
absolute dollars year over year by approximately 14% and as a percentage of net
revenues increased to nearly 15% of total net revenues. These increases
primarily reflect the Company's focus on marketing its customer support services
domestically in 1996.
During mid-1995, the Company expanded its worldwide operations with new
sales offices internationally in Europe and Japan. International revenues as a
percentage of total net revenues were 33% and 30% for the years ended December
31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. During the fourth quarter of 1996, in
particular, the Company was unsuccessful in marketing and selling its products
in Japan, which in 1995 and the first half of 1996 accounted for the majority of
the Company's international revenues. The Company has recently addressed and
taken steps with respect to staffing and management, distributor relationships,
and product marketing in Japan, however there can be no assurance that the
Company will be successful in its attempts to more successfully market and sell
its products in Japan in the future.
Software license fees are generally recognized as revenue upon shipment
if there are no, or insignificant, post-delivery obligations, and allowances for
returns and doubtful accounts are provided based on historical rates of returns
and write-offs, which have not been material to date. Certain of the Company's
sales to distributors are under agreements providing rights of return and price
protection on unsold merchandise. Accordingly, the Company defers recognition of
such sales until the merchandise is sold by the distributor.
The Company provides ongoing maintenance and support to its customers,
generally under annual service agreements. Maintenance and support is comprised
of software updates for existing products and telephone support. Service
revenues are recognized on a pro-rata basis over the term of such agreements.
The Company expects that service revenues will continue to increase as a
percentage of total net revenues.
Periodically the Company has provided training and consulting services
to selected customers. Such revenue is recognized as the related services are
performed and has not been material to date. The Company does not expect that
revenues generated from such services will become materially significant in the
future.
No customer accounted for more than 10% of net revenues during the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995.
Gross margin
Cost of revenues primarily includes royalties paid to third parties for
licensed software incorporated into the Company's products, costs associated
with product packaging, documentation and software duplication, and the
amortization and writedown of purchased software. A charge of approximately $2.7
million is included in cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 1996 for
the amortization and write-off of software purchased in early 1996. The
write-off of purchased software primarily resulted from the Company's decision
during the fourth quarter of 1996 to discontinue its ChameleonNFS for Mac OS and
Xoftware(R) for Mac OS product lines. Gross
14
15
margin, as a percentage of net revenues, declined slightly between the years
ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, primarily as a result of the decline in the
revenue base and the write-off discussed above. Cost of service revenues through
December 31, 1996 has not been material and is not reported separately.
Gross margin as a percentage of net revenues may fluctuate in the
future due to increased price competition, the mix of distribution channels used
by the Company, the mix of license fee revenues versus service revenues, the mix
of products sold and the mix of international versus domestic revenues. The
Company typically recognizes higher gross margins on direct sales than on sales
through indirect channels and higher gross margins on license fee revenues than
on service revenues.
Research and development
Research and development ("R&D") expenses consist primarily of salaries
and benefits, occupancy and travel expenses, as well as fees paid to outside
consultants. The increase in R&D for the year ended December 31, 1996 as
compared to the prior year primarily reflects the hiring of product development
engineers in the United States and Israel during 1996, in part reflecting the
high employee attrition experienced in both locations.
The Company expects that R&D expenses will decrease in absolute dollars
in the future and expects that R&D expenses as a percentage of net revenues will
fluctuate depending on future revenue levels, acquisitions and licensing of
technology. The Company expects to reduce operating costs by discontinuing
certain products and development efforts, particularly those with low future
revenue potential. The Company has recently organized into business units, one
focused on the core business and the other on emerging technologies. In the Core
Products Business unit, the Company will continue to focus on improving the
performance and usability of ChameleonNFS/X and Chameleon HostLink, the products
which currently represent the majority of the Company's revenue. Revenues from
the Core Products Business unit will be used to seed the Emerging Technologies
Business unit, where new products are researched, tested and sold.
Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 86 "Accounting for the
Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed," under
which the Company is required to capitalize software development costs after
technological feasibility is established, which the Company defines as a working
model and further defines as a beta version of the software. The establishment
of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of
these costs requires considerable judgment by management with respect to certain
external factors, including, but not limited to, anticipated future gross
product revenue, estimated economic life and changes in technology. Costs which
do not qualify for capitalization are charged to R&D expense when incurred. As
previously discussed, approximately $2.7 million is included in cost of revenues
at December 31, 1996 for the amortization and write-off of software purchased in
early 1996. To date, internal software development costs that were eligible for
capitalization have not been significant and the Company has charged all
internal software developments costs to research and development expense as
incurred.
Sales and marketing
Sales and marketing ("S&M") expenses consist primarily of salaries and
commissions of sales and marketing personnel, advertising and promotion
expenses, and customer service and support costs. The increase in S&M expenses
for the year ended December 31, 1996 compared to the prior year, both in
absolute dollars and as a percentage of net revenues, reflects increased costs
related to the Company's investment in expanding its direct corporate sales and
support functions in the United States and increased marketing activities,
including advertising, trade show participation and promotions.
The Company believes that S&M expenses will decrease in absolute
dollars in the future as the Company focuses on controlling operating expenses
relative to revenues and returning the Company to profitability and growth. The
Company expects that S&M expenses as a percentage of net revenues will fluctuate
depending on future revenue levels.
15
16
General and administrative
General and administrative ("G&A") expenses increased in absolute
dollars and as a percentage of net revenues for the year ended December 31,
1996, compared to the prior year primarily as a result of increased staffing and
associated expenses necessary to support and improve the Company's
infrastructure. The increase as a percentage of net revenues was also
attributable to the decreased revenue base.
The Company believes that G&A expenses will decrease in absolute
dollars in the future as the Company focuses on controlling operating expenses
relative to revenues and returning the Company to profitability and growth. The
Company expects that G&A expenses as a percentage of net revenues will fluctuate
depending on future revenue levels.
Write-off of in-process research and development
During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company purchased
technology from several parties. The majority of the $13.4 million fourth
quarter charge is attributable to the Company's purchases of technology from
Applicom Software Industries (1990) Ltd. ("Applicom") and U.S. Computer
Software, Inc. ("U.S. Computer"). In management's opinion, both purchases of
technology had not reached technological feasibility and had no probable future
alternative use. Accordingly, such amounts were deemed to be in-process research
and development and were charged to operations for the year ended December 31,
1996.
Amortization of goodwill
During 1996, the Company purchased certain assets related to the Z-Mail
business, an electronic mail and messaging system, of Network Computing Devices,
Inc. ("NCD"). The assets purchased include goodwill which is being amortized on
a straight-line basis over a two year period beginning July 1996. In 1994, the
Company recorded approximately $2.6 million of goodwill, primarily in connection
with the acquisitions of Arabesque and Ariana. Goodwill from these two
acquisitions was being amortized on a straight-line basis and was fully
amortized at December 31, 1996.
Acquisition costs
The Company incurred acquisition costs during the year ended December
31, 1996 related to the aforementioned acquisition of MaxInfo, which was
accounted for as a pooling of interests. Acquisition costs for the year ended
December 31, 1995 primarily related to the aforementioned acquisitions of Syzygy
and AGE, which were also accounted for as poolings of interests. Acquisition
costs consisted primarily of investment banking, legal, accounting and other
related expenses.
Interest income
Interest income increased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of
net revenues primarily as a result of higher average cash and investment
balances during the year ended December 31, 1996 compared to the prior year.
Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliate
In July 1995, NetManage, Ltd., one of the Company's wholly-owned
subsidiaries, agreed to an investment in one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries,
NetVision, Ltd. ("NetVision") by Elron Electronics, Ltd. ("Elron"). The Company
retains an ownership in NetVision of 50%. Prior to the investment by Elron, the
accounts of NetVision were included in the Company's consolidated financial
statements. Subsequent to the investment, the Company did not have a majority
voting interest in NetVision. Accordingly, NetVision's accounts are no longer
consolidated and the Company's remaining investment in NetVision is accounted
for by the equity method.
Provision (benefit) for income taxes
The Company recorded a benefit for income taxes of approximately $3.3
million on a net loss of approximately $5.7 million for the year ended December
31, 1996 compared to a provision for income taxes of approximately $11.5 million
on net income of approximately $22.3 million for the year ended December 31,
1995.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net revenues
The increase in license fees was primarily attributable to increased
market acceptance of the Company's Chameleon family of products as well as the
contribution of increased sales of the Company's ECCO Pro product, which
resulted from the acquisition of Arabesque in 1994. Also, the Company focused
domestic marketing efforts on indirect sales channels which contributed to the
increase in revenues in 1995.
During 1995, the Company continued expanding its worldwide operations
with new sales offices both internationally, in Europe and Japan, and
domestically. As a result, international revenues, including export sales,
17
18
accounted for approximately 30% and 19% of net revenues in 1995 and 1994,
respectively. The increase in international revenues was attributable primarily
to the establishment of sales offices in London, Munich, Tokyo and Paris; the
latter was established as a result of the Company's acquisition of its French
distributor, Ariana, in December 1994. A shift in international marketing
efforts towards indirect channels, including increasing the number of
international distributors and resellers, also contributed to the increase.
Finally, the introduction of an increased number of localized versions of the
Company's products also contributed to the increased acceptance of the Company's
products in the international marketplace.
No customer accounted for more than 10% of net revenues during the
years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994.
Gross margin
Cost of revenues primarily included royalties paid to third parties for
licensed software incorporated into the Company's products as well as costs
associated with product packaging, documentation and software duplication. Cost
of service revenues through December 31, 1995 was not material and was not
reported separately.
Research and development
R&D expenses consisted primarily of salaries and benefits, occupancy
and travel expenses, as well as fees paid to outside consultants. The increase,
both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net revenues, primarily
reflected the hiring of additional product development engineers in the United
States and Israel during 1995.
Sales and marketing
S&M expenses consisted primarily of salaries and commissions of sales
and marketing personnel, advertising and promotion expenses, and customer
service and support costs. The increase in S&M expenses, both in absolute
dollars and as a percentage of net revenues, reflected increased salaries and
commissions due to increased staffing and to sales commissions on significantly
higher revenues during the year ended December 31, 1995, the growth of internal
telesales and customer service and support functions, the opening of foreign
sales offices in Europe and Japan in 1995, as well as domestic sales offices,
and increased marketing activities, including trade show participation,
advertising and promotions.
General and administrative
G&A expenses increased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net
revenues primarily as a result of increased staffing and associated expenses
which were necessary to manage and support the Company's growth.
Write-off of in-process research and development
For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company allocated $2.0
million of the purchase price related to the Arabesque acquisition to research
and development projects that, in management's opinion, had not reached
technological feasibility and had no probable alternative future use. No such
expenses were incurred for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Amortization of goodwill
In 1994, the Company recorded approximately $2.6 million of goodwill,
primarily in connection with the acquisitions of Arabesque and Ariana. Goodwill
was amortized on a straight-line basis over two years.
Acquisition costs
The Company incurred acquisition costs in 1995 related to the
aforementioned acquisitions of Syzygy and AGE. These costs consisted primarily
of investment banking, legal, accounting and other related expenses.
Interest income
The increase in interest income was reflective of the increase in cash
generated by operating activities and the increase in the interest rates
received on higher levels of cash throughout 1995.
18
19
Provision for income taxes
The Company's effective tax rate in 1995 decreased to 34% from 39% in
1994, reflecting the increased benefit of tax-free interest income and benefits
derived from increased international operations which are subject to a lower tax
rate.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents $19.5 $32.6
Short-term investments 46.6 47.5
Long-term investments 37.2 29.2

Net cash used in investing activities 30.8 43.4
Net cash provided by financing activities 4.7 4.8
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
Since the Company's inception, growth has been financed primarily
through cash provided by operations and sales of capital stock. The Company's
primary financing activities to date consist of its initial and secondary stock
offerings and preferred stock issuances, and have aggregated net proceeds to the
Company of approximately $72.5 million. The Company does not have a bank line of
credit or an equipment lease facility.
During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company's aggregate cash
and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments decreased
from $109.3 million to $103.3 million. This decrease was due primarily to
operating losses.
The Company's principal investing activities to date have been the
purchase of short-term and long-term investments, purchases of technology, and
purchases of property and equipment. Net of proceeds from maturities, the
Company invested $8.8 million in short-term and long-term investments during
1996. Cash expenditures for purchased technology and the acquisition of a
business amounted to $12.7 million in 1996. In addition, expenditures for
purchases of property and equipment were $4.7 million in 1996 and were primarily
purchases of computers and, to a lesser extent, office equipment. The Company
does not have any specific commitments with regard to future capital
expenditures and it is anticipated that such spending will decline. The
Company's principal commitment as of December 31, 1996 consists of leases on its
facilities.
Net cash provided by financing activities in 1996 reflects proceeds
from the issuance of common stock under the Company's stock purchase plan and
stock option plans.
The Company and Elron have guaranteed a bank line of credit for
NetVision in the amount of $2.0 million. As of December 31, 1996, there was no
outstanding balance on this line of credit.
At December 31, 1996, the Company had working capital of $71.7 million.
The Company believes that its current cash balances and operating cash flows
will be sufficient to meet the Company's working capital and capital expenditure
requirements for the foreseeable future.
FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company has experienced and expects to experience in future periods
significant fluctuations in operating results that may be caused by many factors
including, among others, demand for the Company's products; introduction or
enhancements of products by the Company or its competitors; technological
changes in computer networking; market acceptance of new products; customer
order deferrals in anticipation of new products; the size
19
20
and timing of individual orders; mix of international and domestic revenues; mix
of distribution channels through which the Company's products are sold;
seasonality of revenues; quality control of products; changes in the Company's
operating expenses; personnel changes; foreign currency exchange rates and
general economic conditions. As a result, the Company believes that
period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily
meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance.
Because the Company generally ships software products within a short
period after receipt of an order, the Company typically does not have a material
backlog of unfilled orders, and revenues in any quarter are substantially
dependent on orders booked in that quarter. The Company's expense levels are
based in part on its expectations as to future revenues and to a large extent
are fixed. Therefore, the Company may be unable to adjust spending in a timely
manner to compensate for any unexpected revenues shortfall. Accordingly, any
significant shortfall of demand in relation to the Company's expectations or any
material delay of customer orders would have an almost immediate adverse impact
on the Company's operating results and on the Company's ability to achieve
profitability. Fluctuations in operating results may also result in volatility
in the price of the Company's common stock.
Product Development and Competition
The market for the Company's products is intensely competitive and
characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards,
changes in customers' needs and frequent new product introductions. Particularly
over the past year, many customers have delayed purchase decisions due to the
confusion in the marketplace relating to rapidly changing technology and product
introductions. To maintain or improve its position in this industry, the Company
must continue to enhance its current products and to develop, introduce
successfully and market new products on a timely and cost-effective basis. Any
failure by the Company to anticipate or respond adequately to changes in
technology and customer preferences, or any significant delays in product
development or introduction, would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's results of operations. The failure to develop on a timely basis these
or other enhancements incorporating new functionality could cause customers to
delay purchase of the Company's current products or cause customers to purchase
products from the Company's competitors; either situation would adversely affect
the Company's results of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be successful in developing new products or enhancing its existing products
on a timely basis, or that such new products or product enhancements will
achieve market acceptance.
Many of the Company's competitors have substantially greater financial,
technical, sales, marketing and other resources, as well as greater name
recognition and a larger customer base, than the Company. The market for the
Company's products is characterized by significant price competition and the
Company anticipates that it will face increasing pricing pressures from its
current and new competitors in the future. Moreover, given that there are low
barriers to entry into the software market and that the market is rapidly
evolving and subject to rapid technological change, the Company believes that
competition will persist and intensify in the future. Accordingly, there can be
no assurance that the Company will be able to provide products that compare
favorably with the products of the Company's competitors or that competitive
pressures will not require the Company to reduce its prices. The Company has
recently experienced price declines for its products, contributing to lower
revenues. Any further material reduction in the price of the Company's products
would require the Company to increase unit sales in order to maintain revenues
at existing levels. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in doing so.
The Company's competitors could seek to expand their product offerings
by designing and selling products using TCP/IP or other technology that could
render obsolete or adversely affect sales of the Company's products. For
example, Microsoft Corporation ("Microsoft"), a company with significantly
greater financial, development and marketing resources, has recently introduced
a personal information manager and has included this product in a suite of
software. This development may adversely affect the Company's sales of its own
products either by directly affecting customer purchasing decisions or by
causing potential customers to delay their purchases of the Company's products.
Substantially all of the Company's net revenues have been derived from
the sales of products that provide inter-networking applications for the
Microsoft Windows environment and are marketed primarily to Windows users. As a
result, sales of the Company's products would be materially adversely affected
by market developments
20
21
adverse to Windows. In addition, the Company's strategy of developing products
based on the Windows operating environment is substantially dependent on its
ability to gain pre-release access to, and to develop expertise in, current and
future Windows developments by Microsoft. No assurance can be given as to the
ability of the Company to provide on a timely basis products compatible with
future Window releases.
Marketing and Distribution
As part of its strategy to develop multiple distribution channels, the
Company expects to increase its use of resellers, particularly value added
resellers and system integrators, in addition to distributors and original
equipment manufacturers. The Company expects that indirect sales will grow as a
percentage of both domestic and total revenues and that any material increase in
the Company's indirect sales as a percentage of revenues will adversely affect
the Company's average selling prices and gross margins due to the lower unit
costs that are typically charged when selling through indirect channels. There
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract resellers and
distributors who will be able to market the Company's products effectively and
will be qualified to provide timely and cost-effective customer support and
service. The Company ships products to resellers and distributors on a purchase
order basis, and many of the Company's resellers and distributors carry
competing product lines. Therefore, there can be no assurance that any reseller
or distributor will continue to represent the Company's products, and the
inability to recruit or retain important resellers or distributors could
adversely affect the Company's results of operations.
Global Market Risks
The Company derived approximately 33% of net revenues from
international sales during the year ended December 31, 1996. While the Company
expects that international sales will continue to account for a significant
portion of its net revenues, there can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to maintain or increase international market demand for the Company's
products or that the Company's distributors will be able to effectively meet
that demand. Risks inherent in the Company's international business activities
generally include unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, tariffs and
other trade barriers, costs and risks of localizing products for foreign
countries, longer accounts receivable payment cycles, difficulties in managing
international operations, currency fluctuations, potentially adverse tax
consequences, repatriation of earnings and the burdens of complying with a wide
variety of foreign laws. There can be no assurance that such factors will not
have an adverse effect on the Company's future international sales and,
consequently, on the Company's results of operations.
Employee Retention
The majority of the Company's employee workforce is located in the
extremely competitive employment markets of the Silicon Valley in California and
in Haifa, Israel. During the latter half of 1996, the Company experienced high
attrition at all levels and across all functions of the Company. The attrition
experienced by the Company was attributable to various factors including, among
others, industry-wide demand exceeding supply for experienced engineering and
sales professionals. The Company has and will continue to address the issue of
attrition, and in fact in January 1997, repriced the majority of its outstanding
stock options in an effort to retain its employees and become competitive in the
extremely competitive employment market. Managing employee attrition,
integrating acquired operations and products and expanding both the geographic
area of its customer base and operations have resulted in substantial demands on
the Company's management resources. The Company's future operating results will
be dependent in part on its ability to attract and retain its employee
workforce, train and manage its management and employee base, and continue to
implement and improve its operating and financial controls. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to manage such challenges successfully.
Other
The Company regularly evaluates product and technology acquisition
opportunities and anticipates that it may make additional acquisitions in the
future. Product and technology acquisitions entail numerous risks, including
difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations and products, diversion
of management's attention away from day-to-day matters and potential loss of key
employees from acquired companies. To date, the Company's acquisitions have not
contributed significantly to revenues, and there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to integrate successfully the operations and personnel
acquired to date, and if applicable, in the future. The failure of the Company
to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of
operations.

QUARTERLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following table sets forth unaudited quarterly financial
information for the Company's last eight quarters. The Company's consolidated
financial results were restated for the year ended December 31, 1995 to include
the combined operating results of AGE and the Company, as previously described.
This unaudited information has been prepared on the same basis as the audited
consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, includes
all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for
the fair presentation of the information for the periods presented.
The Company has experienced and expects to experience in future periods
significant fluctuations in operating results that may be caused by many
factors, including, among others, those described above within "Factors That May
Affect Future Results and Financial Condition". The Company's future revenues
and results of operations could be subject to significant volatility and may
also be unpredictable due to shipment patterns typical of the software industry.
A significant percentage of the Company's revenues are generally expected to be
recognized in the third month of each quarter and may tend to occur in the
latter half of that month. The Company believes that period-to-period
comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and
should not be relied upon as indications of future performance.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To NetManage, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
NetManage, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as of December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements and the schedule referred to
below are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of NetManage, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule listed under Item 14(a) is
presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange
Commission's rules and is not a part of the basic financial statements. This
schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of
the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in all
material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NETMANAGE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION:
NetManage, Inc. (the "Company") develops, markets and supports an
integrated set of application, server and development tool software for the
Microsoft Windows, Windows 95 and Windows NT platforms. The Company's
standards-based products provide TCP/IP and SNA host access, UNIX access
including NFS and X, and ActiveX-based development. The Company's products are
sold and serviced worldwide by the Company's direct sales force, international
subsidiaries and authorized distribution partners. The Company's products
include the Chameleon ATX family (Chameleon HostLink, ChameleonNFS/X), ECCO Pro
and the Z-Mail messaging family.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated. The Company's 50% investment in NetVision,
Ltd. ("NetVision") is accounted for using the equity method.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign Currency Translation and Foreign Exchange Contracts
The functional currency of the Company's foreign subsidiaries is the
local currency. Gains and losses resulting from the translation of the
subsidiaries' financial statements are reported as a separate component of
stockholders' equity. The Company enters into forward exchange contracts to
reduce the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on those balance sheet
accounts denominated in foreign currency, other than the entities' local
currency, that give rise to transaction gains or losses. The notional amount of
the forward contracts was approximately $2.9 million and $11.2 million at
December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The 1996 contracts expired on January
29, 1997. Gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts were immaterial for the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995. The Company had not entered into any
such contracts in 1994.
Revenue Recognition
License fees are earned under software license agreements to end-users
and resellers, and are generally recognized when a customer purchase order has
been received, the software has been shipped, the Company has a right to invoice
the customer, collection of the receivable is probable and there are no
significant obligations remaining. The Company offers its customers a 30-day
right of return on sales and records an estimate of such returns at the time of
product delivery based on historical experience. To date, such returns have been
insignificant. Certain of the Company's sales are made to domestic distributors
under agreements allowing rights of return and price protection on unsold
merchandise. Accordingly, the Company defers recognition of such sales until the
merchandise is sold by the distributor. The Company's international distributors
do not have return rights and, as such, the Company generally recognizes sales
to international distributors upon shipment, if all other revenue recognition
criteria has been met.
Service revenues consist of fees for providing system updates for
existing software products, user documentation and technical support, generally
under annual service agreements, and is recognized ratably over the
29
30
term of such agreements. If such services are included in the initial licensing
fee, the value of the services is unbundled and recognized ratably over the
related service period. The cost of service revenues is not material and is
included in cost of revenues in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of
Operations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Short-term and Long-term Investments
The Company accounts for its investments under the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". Under SFAS No. 115, the
Company's investments are classified as held-to-maturity and are valued using
the amortized cost method. The Company's investments mature at various dates
through October 1999. Investments with a maturity of greater than one year from
the balance sheet date are classified as long-term investments. At December 31,
1996 and 1995, the fair value of the investments approximated amortized cost
and, as such, gross unrealized holding gains and losses were not material. The
fair value of the investments was determined based on quoted market prices at
the reporting dates for those instruments. The carrying value of the Company's
investments by major security type consisted of the following as of December 31,
1996 and 1995 (in thousands):
DESCRIPTION 1996 1995
---------------------------- ------- -------
Municipal bonds $69,441 $59,890
Auction rate securities 11,200 12,302
CDs/Bankers acceptance notes 1,669 3,007
Government securities 1,500 1,502
------- -------
$83,810 $76,701
======= =======
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Betterments, renewals and
extraordinary repairs that extend the life of the asset are capitalized, other
repairs and maintenance are expensed. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
CLASSIFICATION LIFE
------------------------------- ------------------------------
Computer software and equipment 2 to 3 years
Furniture and fixtures 5 years
Leasehold improvements Shorter of the lease term
or the estimated useful life
Goodwill
Goodwill arising from the Company's acquisitions (see Note 3) is
amortized on a straight-line basis over two years. Accumulated amortization was
$3,137,000 and $1,611,000 at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Software Development Costs
Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with SFAS
No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or
Otherwise Marketed," under which capitalization of software development costs
begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility of the product, which
the Company defines as the development of a working model and further defines as
the development of a beta version of the software. The establishment of
technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of
these costs requires considerable judgment by management with respect to certain
external factors, including, but not limited to, anticipated future gross
product revenue, estimated economic life and changes in technology. Such costs
are reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value.
Amortization of purchased software is generally computed on a straight-line
basis over one to five years or, if less, the estimated remaining economic life
30
31
of the underlying products. To date, internal software development costs that
were eligible for capitalization have not been significant and the Company has
charged all software development costs to research and development as incurred.
For the year ended December 31, 1996, approximately $2.7 million is
included in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations in cost of
revenues for the amortization and writedown to net realizable value of software
purchased and capitalized during 1996. Prior to 1996, purchased software costs
eligible for capitalization had not been significant and the Company charged all
such costs to research and development as incurred.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash investments and trade
receivables. The Company has cash investment policies that limit the amount of
credit exposure to any one issuer and restrict placement of these investments to
issuers evaluated as credit worthy. Concentrations of credit risk with respect
to trade receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising
the Company's customer base and their dispersion across many different
industries and geographies.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Net loss per share data has been computed using the weighted average
number of shares of common stock. Net income per share data has been computed
using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common
equivalent shares from stock options outstanding (when dilutive using the
treasury stock method).
Reclassifications
Certain prior year financial statement amounts have been reclassified
to conform to the current year presentation.
3. ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER INVESTMENTS:
In November 1996, the Company purchased collaborative computing
software technology from Applicom Software Industries (1990) Ltd. ("Applicom")
for cash consideration of approximately $10.0 million. The Company's intention
is to integrate this technology into its Chameleon ATX family in 1997. In the
opinion of management, the purchased technology had not reached technological
feasibility and had no probable alternative future use. Accordingly, the entire
purchase price was deemed to be in-process research and development and was
charged to operations in 1996.
In October 1996, the Company purchased gateway and mail server software
technology from U.S. Computer Software, Inc. ("U.S. Computer"). Consideration
included cash of approximately $2.2 million and the issuance of approximately
122,000 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $1.0 million. In the
opinion of management, the purchased technology had not reached technological
feasibility and had no probable alternative future use. Accordingly, the entire
purchase price was deemed to be in-process research and development and was
charged to operations in 1996.
In July 1996, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Maximum Information, Inc. ("MaxInfo") in exchange for approximately 590,000
shares of the Company's common stock. The Company also assumed MaxInfo's
outstanding employee stock options, which were converted into options to
purchase approximately 129,000 shares of the Company's common stock. This
transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests during the third quarter
of 1996. The operations of MaxInfo are not material to the Company's
consolidated results of operations and financial position and, therefore, the
historical financial statements have not been restated to reflect the
acquisition retroactively. Accordingly, the operations of MaxInfo from the
acquisition date forward have been recorded in the Company's consolidated
financial statements.

32
In June 1996, the Company purchased certain assets related to the
Z-Mail business, an electronic mail and messaging system, from Network Computing
Devices, Inc. The assets purchased include customer lists and records, customer
contracts and service agreements, intellectual property rights and the Z-Mail
proprietary software. The purchase price included cash consideration of
approximately $1.3 million and the assumption of certain Z-Mail business-related
liabilities of approximately $0.8 million. The acquisition was accounted for as
a purchase. The entire purchase price was allocated to goodwill and other
intangibles and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated
lives of the assets purchased of two years. Comparative pro forma financial
information has not been presented as the results of operations of the Z-Mail
business were not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In November 1995, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common
and preferred stock of AGE Logic, Inc. ("AGE") in exchange for approximately
833,000 shares of the Company's common stock. AGE was a supplier of
Desktop-to-UNIX connectivity software and provided a full family of high
performance X server, file sharing and terminal emulation products for PC and
Macintosh desktops. The Company also assumed AGE's outstanding employee stock
options and warrants, which were converted to options and warrants to purchase
approximately 167,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The merger was
accounted for as a pooling of interests and, accordingly, the Company's
financial statements for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 were
restated to include the results of AGE. Prior to the merger, AGE's fiscal year
end was June 30. AGE's financial statements were restated to a calendar year
basis consistent with the Company's year end on December 31.
Reconciliation of the 1995 and 1994 financial statements with
previously reported separate consolidated Company information is presented below

Prior to the merger with the Company, in March 1995, AGE acquired all
of the outstanding stock, stock options and warrants of Pacer Software, Inc.
("Pacer") in exchange for approximately 64,600 shares of the Company's common
stock. Pacer was involved in the development and marketing of computer software
products. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the
results of Pacer from the date of the acquisition forward have been recorded in
the Company's consolidated financial statements. The value of the Company's
common stock issued in connection with the acquisition was equal to the net
assets acquired from Pacer which approximated $774,000. Accordingly, no goodwill
was recorded for this transaction. Comparative pro forma financial information
has not been presented as the results of operations for Pacer were not material
to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In October 1995, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Syzygy Communications, Inc. ("Syzygy") in exchange for approximately 394,000
shares of the Company's common stock. Syzygy was an inter-networking
communications software company and developer of interconnection and network
management software for hardware and software vendors and also provided custom
communications software for commercial customers. The Company also assumed
Syzygy's outstanding employee stock options and warrants, which were converted
to options and warrants to purchase approximately 48,000 shares of the Company's
common stock. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests. The
operations of Syzygy were not material to the Company's consolidated operations
and financial position and, therefore, prior period financial statements were
not
32
33
restated. The results of Syzygy from the date of acquisition forward have been
recorded in the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In July 1995, one of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries,
NetManage, Ltd., agreed to an investment by Elron Electronics, Ltd. ("Elron") in
NetVision, a wholly-owned subsidiary of NetManage, Ltd. Elron's investment in
NetVision, comprised of various assets, was equal to the net equity of NetVision
as of June 30, 1995. NetManage, Ltd. retains an ownership in NetVision of 50%.
Prior to the investment by Elron, the accounts of NetVision were included in the
Company's consolidated financial statements. Subsequent to the investment, the
Company did not have a majority voting interest in NetVision. Accordingly,
NetVision's accounts are no longer consolidated and the Company's remaining
investment in NetVision is accounted for by the equity method. During 1996, the
Company and Elron each invested approximately an additional $1,500,000 in
NetVision. The Company's ownership percentage did not change as a result of this
investment. The investment in NetVision of approximately $1,859,000 and
$1,223,000 is included in other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance
Sheets at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. A director of the Company
also serves as the Chairman of the Board of Directors, President and Chief
Executive Officer of Elron. Elron holds an investment in the common stock of the
Company representing approximately 2% of the Company's outstanding shares as of
December 31, 1996. In November 1996, the Company and Elron guaranteed a bank
line of credit for NetVision in the amount of $2.0 million. As of December 31,
1996 there was no outstanding balance on this line of credit.
In December 1994, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common
stock of Ariana S.A. ("Ariana") of Paris, France. Ariana had been a distributor
for the Company since 1993. The total cost of the acquisition, accounted for as
a purchase, was $400,000, which exceeded the fair value of the net assets of
Ariana, resulting in goodwill of $512,000. The goodwill was amortized on a
straight-line basis and was fully amortized at December 31, 1996. Comparative
pro forma financial information has not been presented as the results of
operations for Ariana were not material to the Company's consolidated financial
statements.
In September 1994, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common
stock of Arabesque Software, Inc. ("Arabesque") of Bellevue, Washington for
approximately $3.0 million. Arabesque was primarily engaged in the development
and marketing of personal information management software products. The
acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and the results of operations of
Arabesque since the date of acquisition are included in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. In connection with the acquisition, net
intangibles of approximately $3.9 million were acquired, of which $2.0 million
is reflected as a one-time charge to operations for the write-off of in-process
research and development that had not reached technological feasibility and, in
management's opinion, had no probable alternative future use. The remaining
intangible of $1.9 million represents goodwill which was amortized on a
straight-line basis over two years and was fully amortized at December 31, 1996.
Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company was contingently liable
for future payments of $2.0 million for the achievement of certain technology
milestones. The payment for achievement of such milestones totaling $2.0 million
was expensed during 1995 ($800,000) and 1994 ($1,200,000). Comparative pro forma
financial information has not been presented as the results of operations for
Arabesque were not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
On January 9, 1997, a securities class action complaint, Head, et al.
v. NetManage, Inc., et al., No. 07763295, was filed in the Superior Court of
California, Santa Clara County, against the Company and certain of its directors
and current and former officers. On January 10, 1997, the same plaintiffs filed
a securities class action complaint, Head, et al. v. NetManage, Inc., et al.,
No. C-97-0109 CW, in the United States District Court for the Northern District
of California, against the same defendants. Both complaints allege that, between
July 25, 1995 and January 11, 1996, the defendants made false or misleading
statements of material fact about the Company's prospects and failed to follow
generally accepted accounting principles. The state court complaint asserts
claims under California state law; the federal court complaint asserts claims
under the federal securities laws. Both complaints seek an unspecified amount of
damages. The Company believes there is no merit to either case and intends to
defend the cases vigorously. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to prevail in the
33
34
lawsuits, or that the pendency of the lawsuits will not adversely affect the
Company's operations. As the outcome of this matter cannot reasonably be
determined, the Company has not accrued for any potential loss contingencies.
On March 21, 1997, a securities class action complaint, Interactive
Data Systems, Inc., et al. v. NetManage, Inc., et al., No. CV764945, was filed
in the Superior Court of California, Santa Clara County, against the Company and
certain of its directors and officers. The complaint alleges that, between April
18, 1996 and July 18, 1996, the defendants violated California state law by
making false or misleading statements of material fact about the Company's
prospects and finances. The complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages.
The Company believes there is no merit to the case and intends to defend it
vigorously. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to prevail
in the lawsuit, or that the pendency of the lawsuit will not adversely affect
the Company's operations. As the outcome of this matter cannot be reasonably
determined, the Company has not accrued for any potential loss contingencies.
The Company may be contingently liable with respect to certain asserted
and unasserted claims that arise during the normal course of business. In the
opinion of management, the outcome of all other such matters presently known to
management will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial position or results of operations.

5. CAPITAL STOCK:
Common Stock
In both April 1995 and May 1994, the Company effected two-for-one stock
splits (each in the form of a stock dividend) of the Company's common stock. All
share and per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements and notes have been adjusted retroactively to reflect both stock
dividends.
As of December 31, 1996, the Company has reserved the following shares
of authorized but unissued common stock:
Employee stock option plan 7,768,092
Directors' stock option plan 739,835
Employee stock purchase plan 1,817,233
----------
10,325,160
==========
Employee Stock Option Plan
During 1992, the Company established the 1992 Employee Stock Option
Plan (the "Plan"). The Company currently has authorized a total of 9,800,000
shares for issuance under this Plan. The Company may grant incentive
34
35
stock options or non-statutory stock options to employees, officers, directors
and consultants at an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market
value of the common stock on the date of grant, except that non-statutory
options may be granted at 85% of such fair value. Options granted under the Plan
generally become exercisable at a rate of one-fourth of the shares subject to
the option at the end of the first year and 1/48 of the shares subject to the
option at the end of each calendar month thereafter. The maximum term of a stock
option under the Plan is ten years, but if the optionee at the time of grant has
voting power over more than 10% of the Company's outstanding capital stock, the
maximum term is five years.
The Company has assumed certain options granted to former employees of
the companies acquired during 1995 and 1996 (the "Acquired Options"). The
Acquired Options were assumed by the Company outside of the Plan, but all are
administered as if assumed under the Plan. All of the Acquired Options have been
adjusted to effectuate the conversion under the Agreements and Plans of
Reorganization between the Company and the companies acquired. The Acquired
Options related to two of the companies acquired became immediately exercisable
under the original terms of the option agreements. The Acquired Options related
to the other company acquired continue to vest under the original vesting
schedule over a four-year period. No additional options will be granted under
any of the acquired companies' plans.
In February 1996 and January 1997, upon approval by the Company's Board
of Directors, the Company repriced 2,302,338 and 3,451,079 options,
respectively, originally issued at prices ranging from $11.63 to $24.62 and
$6.63 to $21.25, respectively. The options were repriced at the then current
market value of the Company's common stock of $11.13 for the February 1996
repricing and $6.00 for the January 1997 repricing. The Company's Board of
Directors extended the vesting period for all options repriced in February 1996
by an additional six months.
Directors' Stock Option Plan
In July 1993, the Company adopted the 1993 Directors' Stock Option Plan
(the "Directors' Plan") and reserved 800,000 shares of common stock for issuance
thereunder. Under the Directors' Plan, options may be granted only to
non-employee directors of the Company at an exercise price of 100% of the fair
market value of the stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the
Directors' Plan become exercisable at a rate of one-fourth of the shares subject
to the option at the end of the first year and 1/48 of the shares subject to the
option at the end of each calendar month thereafter. The maximum term of a stock
option under the Directors' Plan is ten years.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In July 1993, the Company adopted the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
"Purchase Plan") and reserved 2,400,000 shares of common stock for future
issuance under the Purchase Plan. Under the Purchase Plan, the Company's
employees, subject to certain restrictions, may purchase shares of common stock
at a price per share that is equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value
of the common stock on the commencement date of each offering period or the
relevant purchase date. For the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994
shares issued under the Purchase Plan were 226,124, 145,145 and 211,498,
respectively, at prices ranging from $5.79 to $12.54 per share, $12.22 to $15.51
per share and $3.40 to $7.12 per share, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation Plans
The Company accounts for the above plans under Accounting Principles
Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, under which no compensation cost has been
recognized. Had compensation cost for these plans been determined consistent
with SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the Company's net
income (loss) and net income (loss) per share would have been adjusted to the
following pro forma amounts (in thousands, except per share amounts):
35
36
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31,
------------------------
1996 1995
-------- -------
Net income (loss): As reported $ (5,705) $22,297
Pro forma (11,135) 16,548
Net income (loss) per share: As reported $ (0.13) $ 0.52
Pro forma - Primary (0.26) 0.39
Pro forma - Fully diluted (0.26) 0.41
Because the method of accounting prescribed by SFAS No. 123 has not
been applied to options granted prior to January 1, 1995, the resulting pro
forma effect of compensation cost may not be representative of that to be
expected in future years.
Option activity, including the Acquired Options, under the Company's

As of December 31, 1996, there were 1,150,634 shares exercisable under
the Company's stock option plans at a weighted average exercise price of $6.84.
Of the 4,270,780 options outstanding, 2,080,865 have exercise prices between
$0.08 and $10.38, with a weighted average exercise price of $7.05 and a weighted
average remaining contractual life of 8.2 years. The remaining 2,189,916 options
have exercise prices between $11.13 and $21.25, with a weighted average exercise
price of $11.50 and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 8.6 years.
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model utilizing expected volatility
calculations based on historical data (77.89%) and risk-free interest rates
based on U.S. government bonds on the date of grant with maturities equal to the
expected option term (4.94% to 6.45%). The expected lives range from three to
seven months after vest date and no dividends are assumed.

Realization of the net deferred tax asset of $10,230,000 is dependent
on generating sufficient future taxable income. Although realization is not
assured, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred
tax asset will be realized. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered
realizable, however, could be reduced if actual future taxable income differs
from estimated amounts.
The Company's subsidiary in Haifa, Israel has a ten-year tax holiday,
which commenced January 1, 1995. During the first two years of the tax holiday,
the subsidiary is exempt from taxation on income generated during that period.
During the remaining eight years, income generated by the subsidiary will be
taxed at a reduced income tax rate of 10%. The Haifa tax holiday decreased
consolidated loss by approximately $1,429,000 ($0.03 per share) and increased
consolidated income by approximately $593,000 ($0.01 per share) for the years
ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
