NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999 UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of click2learn.com, inc. ("click2learn") include the accounts of click2learn and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with click2learn's audited consolidated financial statements included in click2learn's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Interim results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year. Factors that may affect such operating results, include, but are not limited to, those discussed in "FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS". NET LOSS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. As click2learn had a net loss in each of the periods presented, basic and diluted net loss per share are the same. Excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2000 are options to acquire approximately 4,833,282 shares of common stock with a weighted average share price of $7.59 and warrants to acquire 1,426,313 shares of common stock with an weighted average share price of $8.61, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 are options to acquire approximately 4,247,148 shares of common stock with a weighted average share price of $4.87 because their effects would be anti-dilutive. REVENUE RECOGNITION Click2learn recognizes revenue from product sales upon shipment provided no significant obligations remain outstanding and collection of the resulting receivable is probable. An allowance for product returns is provided at the time of the sale. Revenue from technical support agreements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract. Click2learn has two types of professional service contracts: fixed price and time and materials. On a fixed price contract, revenue is recognized using the percentage of completion method of accounting which is based on the ratio of costs incurred to the total estimated project cost. On the time and materials contract, revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Provisions for any estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses become evident. Revenue from the click2learn.com network includes site fees, royalties, and content sales. Revenue is established by the specific requirements of the customer agreements which have a length of one to three years. Revenue for the site fees and content usage is recognized over the length of the customer agreements. Royalty revenue is recognized as earned. 6 COMPREHENSIVE LOSS The following table sets forth the components of comprehensive loss (in thousands) for the periods presented below: THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, JUNE 30, ----------------------- ----------------------- 2000 1999 2000 1999 ------- ------- ------- ------- Net loss $(3,238) $(2,003) $(6,588) $(4,409) Foreign currency translation adjustment (74) (66) (141) (113) ------- ------- ------- ------- Total comprehensive loss $(3,312) $(2,069) $(6,729) $(4,522) ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES ("Statement 133"). Statement 133 provides a comprehensive and consistent standard for the recognition and measurement of derivatives and hedging activities. Statement 133 as amended is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Click2learn does not expect the adoption of Statement 133 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In December 1999, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, REVENUE RECOGNITION IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ("SAB 101"), which click2learn must adopt by the fourth quarter of 2000. SAB 101 provides guidance on revenue recognition and the SEC staff's view on the application of accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. Click2learn does not anticipate that the adoption of SAB 101 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. In March 2000, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 44, ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING STOCK COMPENSATION ("FIN No. 44"). FIN No. 44 provides guidance for certain issues arising in the application of Accounting Principals Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES. Among other issues, FIN No. 44 clarifies (a) the definition of an employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. FIN No. 44 is effective July 1, 2000 but certain conclusions in FIN No. 44 cover specific events that occur after either December 15, 1998 or January 12, 2000. To the extent FIN No. 44 covers events occurring during the period after December 15, 1998 or January 12, 2000, but before the effective date of July 1, 2000, the effects of applying FIN No. 44 are recognized on a prospective basis from July 1, 2000. Click2learn does not expect that the adoption of FIN No. 44 will have a material effect on its financial statements. In March 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the FASB reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-2, "Accounting for Web Site Development Costs" which provides guidance on when to capitalize versus expense costs incurred to develop a web site. The consensus is effective for web site development cost in quarters beginning after June 30, 2000. Click2learn has not yet determined the impact, if any, this issue will have on its consolidated financial statements. SEGMENT INFORMATION Click2learn has two primary segments: enterprise and electronic commerce (e-commerce). The enterprise segment refers to the single source solution designed for implementation on a customer's internal information system using click2learn's products and services. In July 1999, click2learn launched its e-commerce network. The electronic commerce segment did not exist prior to 1999. The click2learn.com network is an Internet based service for the delivery and management of e-learning over the Internet including a portal and e-commerce site. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. There have been no transactions between segments. 7 REPORTABLE SEGMENT INFORMATION (in thousands) FOR THE THREE MONTHS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, ENDED JUNE 30, ----------------------- ------------------------ 2000 1999 2000 1999 ------- ------- ------- -------- Revenue: Enterprise $ 8,657 $ 8,551 $17,813 $16,011 Electronic commerce 1,756 - 2,483 - ------- ------- ------- -------- $10,413 $ 8,551 $20,296 $16,011 ======= ======== ======= ======= Operating Loss: Enterprise $ (882) $ (2,204) $(1,699) $(4,849) Electronic commerce (2,455) - (5,264) - ------- ------- ------- -------- $ (3,337) $ (2,204) $(6,963) $(4,849) ======= ======== ======= ======= Capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization and total assets were not significant for the electronic commerce business segment.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF CLICK2LEARN SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH CLICK2LEARN'S CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND RELATED NOTES THERETO INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT. THE DISCUSSION IN THIS REPORT CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. CLICK2LEARN'S ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THE RESULTS DISCUSSED IN THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. FACTORS THAT MAY CAUSE SUCH A DIFFERENCE INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE DISCUSSED IN "FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS." OVERVIEW Click2learn provides full service e-learning solutions to a wide variety of businesses, government agencies and educational institutions. Click2learn's e-learning solutions include the click2learn.com e-learning network, a powerful outsourced platform for e-learning delivered by click2learn as an application service provider (ASP), and a comprehensive e-learning solution designed for implementation on a customer's internal information systems. The click2learn.com e-learning network includes an e-learning marketplace that gives organizations access to thousands of leading third party e-learning courses and allows them to publish and distribute their own custom e-learning courses or other educational materials through the use of click2learn's browser-based authoring and publishing tools. In addition to the click2learn.com e-learning marketplace, the click2learn.com e-learning network provides customers with secure custom-configured e-learning sites that are hosted by click2learn as an ASP. These custom-configured web sites can provide organizations secure delivery and management of training for employees, suppliers, distributors and customers. In addition, through the click2learn.com e-learning network's support for e-commerce transactions, corporate customers and Internet portals can develop an additional revenue source by selling their proprietary training materials as well as content from the click2learn.com e-learning marketplace through their configured sites. The click2learn.com e-learning network was formally launched in the third quarter of 1999. In addition to its ASP solution, click2learn provides internally-implemented enterprise e-learning solutions based on Ingenium, a learning management and skills assessment system that enables customers to deploy and manage all aspects of their learning activities and to assess the skills and learning needs of their employees. The Ingenium system supports the management and delivery of multiple types of learning activities within an organization including instructor-led training, training delivered on CD-ROM or e-learning courses delivered over an organization's intranet. The Ingenium system also allows an organization to closely match and track all employees' readiness to perform their job functions based on the analysis of the skills required to accomplish any tasks. Click2learn's e-learning solutions are supported by one of the industry's largest professional services groups, including custom content development, strategic consulting and integration services, and by its e-learning authoring products, featuring ToolBook II Instructor (for professional developers) and ToolBook II Assistant (for subject matter experts). Revenues are derived from four categories: click2learn.com e-learning network site fees and royalties, content sales, software licenses and professional services. Click2learn.com e-learning network site fees or royalties are determined by contracts with lengths of 1 to 3 years and vary depending on the functionality provided or the commerce conducted through the site. Revenues from functionality fees are generally recognized evenly over the life of the contract, and revenues from royalties are recognized as earned. Revenues from content sales are either spread evenly over the life of the contract for course usage with respect to e-learning courses or are recognized when shipped for hard goods and when delivered for instructor-led courses. Revenues from software licenses generally are recognized upon shipment of products from click2learn's warehouse. The enterprise e-learning products that fall under this category are the Ingenium learning management system and the ToolBook II line of authoring products. Professional service revenues are generally associated with fixed price contracts or time and material contracts. Revenues from fixed price contracts are recognized based on the percentage-of-completion method. Revenues from time and material contracts are earned as the work is performed based on the agreed upon rates. 9 Click2learn incurred net losses of $5.2 million in 1998, $10.0 million in 1999 and $6.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000 and has yet to achieve operating income or net income under its new business model. Click2learn's limited operating history under its current business model and the emerging nature of the market for e-learning, among other factors, make prediction of click2learn's future operating results difficult. Despite the establishment of the click2learn.com e-learning network, which is based on an unproven business model, click2learn expects to continue to derive the majority of its revenues from its enterprise products and services segment for at least the next 12 months. Although click2learn has experienced revenue growth in certain recent periods and the financial statements herein also reflect revenue growth in certain periods, there can be no assurance that such growth rates are sustainable or indicative of actual growth rates that click2learn may experience and, therefore, they should not be considered indicative of future operating results. In addition, click2learn intends to continue to invest in the click2learn.com e-learning network, its professional services business, and research and development, among other things. As a result, click2learn expects to continue to incur annual operating losses at least through 2000. There can be no assurance that click2learn will achieve profitability or, if profitability is achieved, that it will be sustained. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 REVENUE. Total revenue increased 22% from $8.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $10.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Total revenue increased 27% from $16.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $20.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Online learning product revenue decreased 18% from $3.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $2.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Online learning product revenue increased 7% from $6.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $6.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in online learning product revenue for the six month period was due primarily to increased demand for click2learn's online learning products. The June 30, 2000 quarter decline was attributed to staffing changes in the direct sales team responsible for Toolbook sales. Other product revenue decreased 91% from $288,000 in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $27,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Other product revenue decreased 86% from $706,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $97,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Other product revenue consists of revenue from products which are not targeted at the online learning market, many of which have been discontinued or divested over the past years. Total product revenue decreased 23% from $3.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $2.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000, reflecting the above mentioned decreases. Total product revenue decreased 3% from $6.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $6.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000, reflecting the decrease in other product revenue. As a result of click2learn's strategy to focus on the online learning market, click2learn anticipates that growth in product sales, if any, will be attributable to its online learning products and that its other product revenue will not be material in the future. Services revenue increased 19% from $5.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $5.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Services revenue increased 22% from $9.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $11.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Revenues from the click2learn.com e-learning network were $1.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000 and $2.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000. There were no e-learning revenues in the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 because the click2learn.com e-learning network was not launched until the third quarter of 1999. E-learning network revenue consists of revenues from site fees and royalties received from click2learn, sales of content through the click2learn.com e-learning network, and professional services related to the click2learn.com e-learning network. COST OF REVENUE. Cost of product revenue includes costs of media, manuals and distribution costs. Gross margin from click2learn's online learning products is generally higher than that of its other products because these products are typically sold by click2learn's direct sales force, as compared with other products sold through indirect channels, such as OEMs and resellers. Cost of services revenue consists primarily of personnel-related 10 costs in providing consulting, custom development, support and training to customers. Gross margin on product revenue is higher than gross margin on services revenue, reflecting the lower materials, packaging and other costs of software compared with the relatively high personnel costs associated with providing professional services. Total cost of revenue increased 35% from $3.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $5.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Total cost of revenue increased 35% from $7.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $10.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of online learning products revenue decreased 9% from $225,000 in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $205,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of online learning products revenue increased 10% from $403,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $445,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The changes were due to the increase or decrease in associated revenue in the 2000 periods. Cost of other products revenue decreased 93% from $122,000 in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $8,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of other products revenue decreased 86% from $258,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $36,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The decline was due to decreased sales of click2learn's other products. Total cost of product revenue decreased 39% from $347,000 in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $213,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Total cost of product revenue decreased 27% from $661,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $481,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of e-learning network revenue was $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of e-learning network revenues consists of royalties payable to content publishers or developers for content sold through the click2learn.com e-learning network, royalties payable to corporate customers or Internet portals with respect to content sold through their e-learning sites, and personnel costs for professional services related to the click2learn.com e-learning network. Total products gross margin increased from 90% in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to 92% in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Total products gross margin increased from 90% in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to 93% in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of services revenue increased 5% from $3.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $3.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of services revenue increased 12% from $6.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $7.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The increase was due primarily to increased revenue and related costs. Services gross margin increased from 30% in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to 38% in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Services gross margin increased from 27% in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to 33% in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Click2learn anticipates that cost of services revenue will increase in absolute dollars as it adds additional professional services personnel. To the extent services revenue increases relative to product sales revenue as a percentage of total revenue, overall gross margins would decline. E-learning network gross margin was 27% for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 22% for the six months ended June 30, 2000. OPERATING EXPENSES RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses include expenses associated with the development of new products and new product versions and consist primarily of salaries, depreciation of development equipment, supplies and overhead. Research and development expenses were $1.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 and $2.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Research and development expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased from 19% in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to 22% in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Research and development expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased from 20% in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to 24% in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The increases resulted from click2learn's investment in developing the click2learn.com e-learning network. Click2learn expects research and development expenses to increase in absolute dollars in the future. SALES AND MARKETING. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of sales and marketing personnel costs, including sales commissions, travel, advertising, public relations, seminars, trade shows and other marketing 11 literature and overhead. Sales and marketing expenses were $3.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 and $4.5 million in the three months ended June 30,1999. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenue were unchanged at 43% in the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 2000, respectively. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased from 45% in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to 44% in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Click2learn expects that sales and marketing expenses will continue to increase in absolute dollars in the future as click2learn continues to increase its sales and marketing efforts in the online learning market. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses for click2learn's administrative, executive and finance personnel as well as outside advisors. General and administrative expenses increased from $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $1.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000. General and administrative expenses increased from $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased from 16% to 15% in the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2000. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased from 17% to 15% in the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000. Click2learn expects that general and administrative expenses will increase in absolute dollars in the future. AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL Amortization of goodwill relates to the amortization of the excess of the purchase price over the net assets of companies acquired under the purchase method of accounting. For the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 2000, click2learn recognized $219,000 and $235,000, respectively, of amortization expense. For the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 2000, click2learn recognized $438,000 and $470,000, respectively, of expense for amortization of goodwill. OTHER INCOME, NET Click2learn recorded no other expense in the three months ended June 30, 1999 and in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Click2learn recorded no other expense in the six months ended June 30, 1999 and in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Other interest income, net was $201,000 in the three months ended June 30, 1999 and $268,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Other interest income, net was $440,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1999 and $545,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000. LOSS ON AFFLIATE During the three month period ended June 30, 2000, click2learn established a joint venture with SOFTBANK Media & Marketing Corp. and SOFTBANK Forums Japan, Inc. creating Click2Learn Japan K.K. Click2learn's initial contribution to the joint venture's capitalization was approximately $800,000. Accounting for click2learn's portion of the joint venture's operating results is under the equity method. For the three months ended June 30, 2000, losses of $170,000 were recorded as related to our share of the joint venture's results for the period. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At June 30, 2000, click2learn had cash and cash equivalents totaling $15.1 million, a decrease of $4.3 million from December 31, 1999. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was due primarily to $3.6 million used in operating activities and $1.1 million used in investing activities. At June 30, 2000, the principal source of liquidity for click2learn was $24.3 million of working capital. Click2learn anticipates that its cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet its working capital needs and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Click2learn's long-term liquidity will be affected by numerous factors, including acquisitions of businesses or technologies, demand for click2learn's online learning products and services, the extent to which such online learning products and services achieve market acceptance, the timing of and extent to which click2learn invests in new technology, the expenses of sales and marketing and new product development, the extent to which competitors are successful in developing their own products and 12 services and increasing their own market share, the level and timing of revenues, and other factors. In addition, click2learn from time to time evaluates potential acquisitions of businesses, products or technologies that complement click2learn's business. To the extent that resources are insufficient to fund click2learn's activities, click2learn may need to raise additional funds. There can be no assurance that such additional funding, if needed, will be available on terms attractive to click2learn, or at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, click2learn may be unable to expand its business, develop or enhance its products and services, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on click2learn's business, operating results and financial condition. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE To date, click2learn has not experienced any material year 2000 related problems with its software or third-party software or computer systems. FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CLICK2LEARN HAS A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY IN ITS CURRENT MARKETS. Until early 1995, click2learn was engaged in various research and development activities and in developing and marketing multimedia authoring products, database and Internet tools, web publishing products and other ancillary products, most of which click2learn does not currently sell. Starting in 1995, click2learn began to focus its development and marketing efforts on products and services for the enterprise learning market. Click2learn announced the click2learn.com e-learning network in July 1999, and has not previously hosted, operated and managed e-commerce web sites. Accordingly, click2learn has a limited operating history on which to evaluate its current business and prospects. Risks click2learn faces under its new business model include, but are not limited to, the demand for technology-based training and e-learning applications, demand for e-learning products and services, broad and timely acceptance of the click2learn.com e-learning network, competition and those other risks described in this section. To address these risks, click2learn must, among other things: - successfully introduce and build the click2learn.com e-learning network and attract user traffic to the e-learning network; - establish corporate e-learning sites for its customers and generate revenues from such customers; - continue to establish relationships with leading providers of learning content to sell that content through the click2learn.com e-learning network; - continue to establish co-branded e-learning sites for Internet portals and corporate customers for the use of click2learn.com as the "learning channel" for their web sites; - respond to competitive developments; - attract, integrate, retain and motivate qualified personnel; - successfully introduce new products and services; and - address and establish new technologies and technology standards. The pricing, expense and revenue model for the click2learn.com e-learning network has not been broadly tested in the marketplace. If the pricing, expense and revenue model is not acceptable to users, customers, content providers or advertisers, the click2learn.com e-learning network may not be commercially successful. This would seriously harm click2learn's business, particularly if it experiences a decline in the growth of revenues from its enterprise e-learning products and services. Click2learn expects to continue to derive the majority of its revenues over at least the next 12 months from its enterprise e-learning products and services, rather than the click2learn.com e-learning network. CLICK2LEARN'S OPERATING RESULTS COULD VARY SIGNIFICANTLY FROM QUARTER TO QUARTER. Click2learn's quarterly operating results have varied significantly in the past and are expected to fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside click2learn's control. Factors that may adversely affect click2learn's quarterly operating results include: - the demand for technology-based training and e-learning solutions; 13 - the size and timing of product orders and the timing and execution of professional services engagements; - the mix of revenue from products and services; - the mix of products sold; - the ability to meet client project milestones; - market acceptance of click2learn's or its competitors' products and services; - click2learn's ability to develop and market new or enhanced products and services in a timely manner and the market acceptance of these products and services; - timing of revenues and expenses relating to the click2learn.com e-learning network; and - the timing of revenue recognition. Click2learn's future revenues are difficult to predict and click2learn may not be able to adjust spending in response to revenue shortfalls. Click2learn's limited operating history under its current business model, including the click2learn.com e-learning network, possible acquisitions and the emerging nature of the market make prediction of future revenue and expenses difficult. Expense levels are based, in part, on expectations as to future revenue and to a large extent are fixed in the short term. If click2learn is not able to predict future revenue accurately, it may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. CLICK2LEARN IS IN A DEVELOPING MARKET. The e-learning market is in the early stages of development. Corporate training and education have historically been conducted primarily through classroom instruction and have traditionally been performed by a company's internal personnel. Many companies have invested heavily in their current training solutions. Although technology-based training applications have been available for several years, they currently account for only a small portion of the overall training market. Accordingly, the future success of click2learn will depend upon, among other factors, the extent to which companies adopt technology-based solutions and use the Internet in connection with their training activities and the extent to which companies utilize the services or purchase products of third-party providers, and more particularly whether companies adopt solutions delivered over the Internet on an application service provider basis, including private e-learning sites hosted by third parties such as those on the click2learn.com e-learning network. Many companies that have already invested substantial resources in traditional methods of corporate training may be reluctant to adopt a new strategy that may limit or compete with their existing investments. Even if companies implement technology-based training or e-learning solutions, they may still choose to design, develop, deliver or manage all or a part of their education and training internally. If technology-based learning and the use of the Internet for learning do not become widespread, or if companies do not use the products and services of third parties to develop, deliver or manage their training needs, then click2learn's products and services, including the click2learn.com e-learning network, may not achieve commercial success. CLICK2LEARN DEPENDS ON INCREASING USE OF THE INTERNET. The click2learn.com e-learning network depends on the increased acceptance and use of the Internet, both generally and as a means for the purchase and delivery of learning content. Rapid growth in the use of the Internet is a recent phenomenon. As a result, acceptance and use may not continue to develop at historical rates and a sufficiently broad base of business customers or consumers may not adopt or continue to use the Internet, particularly for training and education. Demand and market acceptance for recently introduced services and products over the Internet are subject to a high level of uncertainty, and there exist few proven services and products. Click2learn's business would be seriously harmed if: - use of the Internet does not continue to increase or increases more slowly than expected; - the technology underlying the Internet does not effectively support any expansion that may occur; - the necessary communication and computer network technology for the Internet does not continue to develop; or - governmental regulation of the Internet increases. INTERNET SECURITY RISKS. A significant barrier to the widespread use of the Internet for applications such as training and education is the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks. Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other events or developments could result in compromises or breaches of click2learn's security systems or those of other web sites. If any well-publicized 14 security breach were to occur, the Internet may not become widely accepted for commerce and communications. Anyone who circumvents click2learn's security measures could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions in our services or operations. The Internet is a public network, and data is sent over this network from many sources. In the past, computer viruses, software programs that disable or impair computers, have been distributed and have rapidly spread over the Internet. Computer viruses could be introduced into our systems or those of our customers or content providers, which could disrupt the click2learn.com e-learning network or make it inaccessible to users. We may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against the threat of security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by breaches. To the extent that our activities may involve the storage and transmission of proprietary information, such as personal information or credit card numbers, security breaches could expose us to a risk of loss or litigation and possible liability. POSSIBILITY OF PERFORMANCE PROBLEMS. The click2learn.com e-learning network has only been recently introduced. If the volume of traffic or content on the click2learn.com e-learning network increases, the network may experience slower response times or other problems. In addition, both click2learn and users depend on Internet service providers, telecommunications companies and the efficient operation of their computer networks and other computer equipment for the operation of and access to the click2learn.com e-learning network. Each of these has experienced significant outages in the past and could experience outages, delays and other difficulties due to system failures unrelated to click2learn's systems. Any delays in response time or performance problems resulting from these unrelated systems could cause users to believe the click2learn.com e-learning network is not functioning properly and therefore not use the click2learn.com e-learning network for their training needs. COMPETITION. The e-learning market is highly fragmented and competitive, rapidly evolving and subject to rapid technological change, with no single competitor accounting for a dominant market share. Because of the lack of significant barriers to entry in its market, click2learn expects that new competitors will enter this market in the future. Click2learn's competitors vary in size and scope and the breadth of products and services offered. Click2learn faces competition from: - other companies focused on delivering learning content over the Internet, such as SmartForce, DigitalThink and TrainingNet, with respect to the click2learn.com e-learning network, as well developers or resellers of training content who make their content vailable over the Internet; - other developers of enterprise learning management systems, such as Saba and Docent, as well as publishers of e-learning courses that sell management systems with their titles with respect to click2learn's Ingenium learning management system; - developers of multimedia and web authoring tools with respect to its ToolBook II authoring products; - many small, regional e-learning and technology-based training services businesses; and - large professional consulting firms and in-house training departments, with respect to all aspects of its enterprise learning solutions. Several of click2learn's current and potential competitors have longer operating histories and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources and therefore may be able to respond more quickly to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards and customer requirements. Many of these competitors also have broader and more established distribution channels that may be used to establish strategic alliances or deliver competing products or services directly to customers. If these competitors were to bundle competing products or services with the products and services of their strategic partners, the demand for click2learn's products and services might be substantially reduced and click2learn's ability to market and sell products and services successfully may be substantially diminished. In addition, the existence or announcement of strategic relationships involving click2learn's competitors could adversely affect its ability to attract and retain customers. DEPENDENCE ON THIRD PARTY TECHNOLOGY AND CONTENT. Click2learn uses licensed third party technology in its products and in the click2learn.com e-learning network and it licenses content from third parties for the click2learn.com e-learning network. Click2learn may not be able to continue to license technology or content from third parties. Future licenses to this technology and content may not be available to click2learn on commercially reasonable terms or at all. The loss of or inability to obtain or maintain any of these technology or content licenses could result in delays in the introduction of new products or could force click2learn to discontinue permitting access to portions of the click2learn.com e-learning network until equivalent technology or content, if available, is 15 identified, licensed and integrated. Furthermore, although it has taken steps to protect itself in the relevant license agreements, click2learn may be subjected to legal claims related to licensed technology or content based on defamation, negligence, product liability, infringement of intellectual property or other legal theories. CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS AND FIXED PRICE ENGAGEMENTS. Click2learn could face liability from customers if it does not meet their expectations. Many of click2learn's professional services engagements require it to develop e-learning applications to suit unique customer requirements. The failure or inability to meet a customer's expectations or requirements in the performance of services could injure click2learn's business reputation or result in a claim for damages, regardless of click2learn's responsibility for the failure. Click2learn attempts to limit contractually its liability for damages arising from product defects, negligent acts, errors, mistakes or omissions in rendering professional services. However, these contractual protections are not always obtained and may not be enforced or otherwise protect click2learn from liability for damages. Click2learn's insurance may not be sufficient to cover one or more claims. Many professional services projects are performed on a fixed-price basis rather than on a time and materials basis. If click2learn does not accurately predict the costs of these projects, it could incur unexpected costs. If click2learn does not complete fixed-price engagements within budget, on time and to clients' satisfaction, click2learn would bear the risk of cost overruns. SOFTWARE DEFECTS. Software products frequently contain errors or failures, especially when first introduced or when new versions are released. Click2learn has in the past discovered errors in its products and those of third parties after their initial release. Because click2learn's enterprise e-learning products are complex products targeted for enterprise customers in an emerging market, customers and potential customers may have a greater sensitivity to product defects than the market for software products generally. Product defects could result in loss of revenue or delay in market acceptance, diversion of development resources, damage to our reputation, or increased service and warranty costs. KEY PERSONNEL. Click2learn's future success depends on the performance of the senior management team and other key employees, and on its ability to attract, integrate, motivate and retain additional highly skilled technical, sales and marketing, and professional services personnel. There is intense competition for these personnel. Click2learn does not have employment agreements with most of its executives or other key employees. In addition, click2learn does not maintain key person life insurance for any officers or key employees. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. Despite click2learn's precautions, it may be possible for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use its intellectual property or trade secrets without authorization. In addition, others could independently develop substantially equivalent intellectual property. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce click2learn's intellectual property rights, to protect trade secrets or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. This litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of management and technical resources. From time to time click2learn has received, and may in the future receive, notice of claims of infringement of other parties' proprietary rights. Infringement or other claims could be asserted or prosecuted against click2learn in the future. Any such claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, and result in costly litigation and diversion of technical and management personnel. They could also cause product shipment delays or require click2learn to develop non-infringing technology or enter into royalty or licensing agreements. These royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all. GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS. Click2learn's revenues are subject to fluctuation as a result of general economic conditions. A significant portion of click2learn's revenues are derived from the sale of products and services to Fortune 1000 companies or government agencies, which historically have adjusted their expenditures for education and training during economic downturns. Should the economy weaken in any future period, these organizations may not increase or may reduce their expenditures on education and training, which could have an adverse effect on click2learn's business. 16 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Click2learn holds its assets primarily in cash and cash equivalents, such as short-term marketable debt securities, money market funds and other cash equivalents. Click2learn minimizes its risk by investing in financial instruments with a maturity of three months or less. Click2learn does not use derivative financial instruments. Click2learn has foreign currency risk as a result of its foreign subsidiary activities. For the three and six months ended June 20, 2000, international revenues from click2learn's foreign subsidiaries accounted for approximately 4% and 6%, respectively, of total revenues. International sales are made mostly from the click2learn's foreign subsidiaries and are typically denominated in the local currency of each country. All foreign subsidiaries use the local currency as their functional currency. Click2learn's international business is subject to risks typical of an international business, including, but not limited to differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility. Accordingly, click2learn's future results could be adversely impacted by changes in these or other factors. Click2learn's exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations arises in part from intercompany accounts in which costs incurred in the United States are charged to the click2learn's foreign subsidiaries. These intercompany accounts are typically denominated in the functional currency of the foreign subsidiary in order to centralize foreign exchange risk with the parent company in the United States. Click2learn is also exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as the financial results of foreign subsidiaries are translated in U.S. dollars in consolidation. As exchanges rates vary, these results, when translated, may vary from expectations and adversely impact overall expected profitability. The effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on click2learn for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 was not material. 17 PART II--OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
