AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BMC Software, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 1999, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on Form 10-K. Effective March 30, 1999, the Company merged with Boole & Babbage, Inc. ("Boole"). As such, the Company's results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, have been restated to include the historical results of operations of Boole for the same period. The Company acquired New Dimension Software, Ltd. ("New Dimension"), headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel, effective April 14, 1999. As such, the Company's financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, include the financial results of New Dimension for the period beginning April 14, 1999 through June 30, 1999. See Note 3 -- Technology Acquisitions for further discussion regarding the New Dimension acquisition and unaudited pro forma financial information. NOTE 2 -- EARNINGS PER SHARE The Company presents its earnings per share in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires dual presentation of earnings per share (EPS); basic EPS and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For purposes of this calculation, outstanding stock options and unearned restricted stock are considered common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method. Options to purchase 4.6 million shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS as they are anti-dilutive. The following table summarizes the basic EPS and diluted EPS computations for the quarters ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 (in thousands, except per share amounts): QUARTERS ENDED JUNE 30, ----------------------- 1998 1999 ---------- ---------- Basic earnings per share: Net earnings.............................................. $ 67,217 $ 16,358 -------- -------- Weighted average number of common shares.................. 233,197 237,575 -------- -------- Basic earnings per share.................................. $ 0.29 $ 0.07 ======== ======== Diluted earnings per share: Net earnings.............................................. $ 67,217 $ 16,358 -------- -------- Weighted average number of common shares.................. 233,197 237,575 Incremental shares from assumed conversion of stock options and other...................................... 15,024 12,184 -------- -------- Adjusted weighted average number of common shares......... 248,221 249,759 -------- -------- Diluted earnings per share................................ $ 0.27 $ 0.07 ======== ======== 5 7 BMC SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 3 -- TECHNOLOGY ACQUISITION On April 14, 1999, the Company acquired, through a public tender offer, in excess of 95% of the outstanding ordinary shares of New Dimension for approximately $673 million in total consideration. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction, and the purchase price was allocated as follows: $126 million to software assets, $436 million to goodwill and other intangibles, and $30 million to equipment, receivables and other non-software assets, net of liabilities assumed. Additionally, BMC allocated $81 million, or 12% of the purchase price, to purchased in-process research and development ("IPR&D"), which was charged to expense in the June 1999 quarter. Purchased IPR&D represents the present value of the estimated after-tax cash flows expected to be generated by the purchased technology, which, at the acquisition date, had not yet reached technological feasibility. The cash flow estimates for revenues were based on estimates of relevant market sizes and growth factors, expected industry trends, the anticipated nature and timing of new product introductions by the Company and its competitors, individual product sales cycles, and the estimated life of each products' underlying technology. Estimated operating expenses and income taxes were deducted from estimated revenue projections to arrive at estimated after-tax cash flows. Estimated operating expenses included cost of goods sold, selling and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses, and research and development, including estimated costs to maintain the products once they have been introduced into the market and are generating revenue. The rates utilized to discount to value the estimated cash flows were 20% for in-process technologies and 15% for developed technologies and were based primarily on venture capital rates of return and the weighted average cost of capital for BMC at the time of the acquisition. As of the date of acquisition, the Company concluded that the IPR&D had no alternative future use after taking into consideration the potential use of the technology in different products, the stage of development and life cycle of each project, resale of the software, and internal use. The value of the purchased IPR&D was expensed at the time of the acquisition. Refer to "Acquired Research and Development and Related Costs" in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition for further discussion of the Company's IPR&D charges. In order to fund the purchase price, the Company entered into a 364-day, unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of banks on which the Company drew down approximately $500 million of short-term borrowings. The remaining consideration was satisfied from the Company's existing working capital. Additionally, the purchase price includes the Company's historical cost of approximately $2 million for 452,800 shares of New Dimension held by Boole, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, prior to the acquisition. Such shares would have been valued at approximately $24 million based on the $52.50 per share tender offer price. 6 8 BMC SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) The following unaudited pro forma results of operations for the quarters ended June 30, 1998, and 1999, are as if the acquisition of New Dimension had occurred at the beginning of each period presented. The pro forma information includes New Dimension's financial results for the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and June 30, 1999, respectively, combined with the accounts of the Company for the quarters ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively. JUNE 30, ------------------------- 1998 1999 ----------- ----------- (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) Total revenues(1)........................................... $294,486 $403,625 Total operating expenses(1)(2).............................. $247,324 $321,307 Net earnings(2)............................................. $ 29,297 $ 60,251 Basic EPS(2)................................................ $0.13 $0.25 Diluted EPS(2).............................................. $0.12 $0.24 - --------------- (1) Includes the elimination of $3.4 million in the quarter ended June 30, 1998, of royalties paid by the Company to New Dimension. (2) The pro forma results of operations exclude the effect of the $80.8 million ($56.6 million, net of taxes) write-off of IPR&D associated with the acquisition, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. NOTE 4 -- STOCK SPLIT On April 20, 1998, the Company's board of directors declared a two-for-one stock split. The stock split was effected in the form of a stock dividend. The stockholders of record received one additional share of common stock for each share held. All stock related data in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes reflect this stock split for all periods presented. NOTE 5 -- SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS In April 1999, the Company entered into a 364-day unsecured revolving credit facility (the Credit Facility) with a group of banks. The Company drew down approximately $500 million on the Credit Facility during the first quarter to fund the New Dimension acquisition. Interest on the outstanding balance is payable monthly and is accrued at LIBOR plus 75 basis points, which approximated 5.9% as of June 30, 1999. The Company holds a renewal option on the Credit Facility, which, if exercised, will enable the Company to convert the outstanding balance at the end of the initial 364-day period into a one-year term loan. The Company repaid $15 million of principal during the first quarter. NOTE 6 -- SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, the Company entered into a transaction with a single customer which accounted for 12% of total revenues recognized in the quarter. This transaction contained a significant amount of new product license fees and license upgrade fees associated with future capacity. NOTE 7 -- ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES The Company adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999. The Statement establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The Statement also requires that changes in a derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met, in which case changes are recognized in 7 9 BMC SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) comprehensive income. Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the income statement, and requires that the Company formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting. One of the Company's principal hedging activities is to purchase foreign currency option contracts to hedge anticipated revenue transactions. The Company has reported the option contracts at fair value each reporting period and the change in the intrinsic value of such contracts has been reported as other comprehensive income. NOTE 8 -- SEGMENT REPORTING SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" was issued in June 1997. SFAS No. 131 requires that a public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. Generally, financial information is required to be reported on the basis used internally for evaluating segment performance and resource allocation. The Company currently operates in a single segment, distributing its enterprise systems management software products. The Company has recently announced initiatives to realign its product marketing and development operations along a strategic business unit basis which closely follows product lines. However, financial information for reporting on these initiatives is not yet available. The Company expects that such financial information will be available in future periods and will revise its segment reporting disclosures once such financial information is available. Revenues are tracked by both geography and product categories based upon the predominant operating environments of enterprise computing: mainframe and distributed systems. The Company is not organized into business units along these product categories nor does it capture expenses on this basis. Revenues relating to product categories are as follows: THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, ------------------- 1998 1999 -------- -------- (IN THOUSANDS) REVENUES Mainframe: License................................................... $134,475 $190,941 Maintenance............................................... 71,190 89,890 -------- -------- Total mainframe revenues.......................... 205,665 280,831 Distributed systems: License................................................... 55,951 88,841 Maintenance............................................... 17,668 31,059 -------- -------- Total distributed systems revenues................ 73,619 119,900 -------- -------- Total revenues.................................... $279,284 $400,731 ======== ======== Mainframe revenue represents revenue pertaining to products which operate primarily on the IBM OS/390 mainframe operating system and databases. Distributed systems revenue represents revenue pertaining to products which operate on Unix, MS Windows NT and other distributed systems operating systems and Oracle, Informix, Sybase, SQL and other distributed systems databases. Also classified as distributed systems products are enterprise products which deliver solutions across the enterprise regardless of the platform. These enterprise products are generally licensed based on metrics such as number of users or tasks managed. 8 10 BMC SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 9 -- MERGER RELATED COSTS Pursuant to the close of the Company's merger with Boole in March, 1999, BMC's management approved a formal plan of restructuring (the Plan) which included steps to be taken to fully integrate the operations of the two companies, consolidate duplicate facilities, and eliminate redundancies to achieve reductions in overhead expenses in future periods. In connection with the Plan, in March of 1999, the Company accrued approximately $17.7 million in restructuring related costs and $20.6 million in direct transaction costs. During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, the Company made certain revisions to the Plan. Significant revisions to the Plan include the following: the termination of approximately 275 additional employees, primarily in the United States and Europe, which resulted in an increase in accrued termination benefits of approximately $11 million; the accrual of other termination benefits which were contingent upon certain performance criteria of approximately $1 million; revisions to the original exit strategy for certain operating leases for office space in the United States and Europe which led to a decrease in the liability of approximately $3 million; and the accrual for termination costs for certain operating leases for computer hardware and equipment of approximately $1 million. Additionally, in conjunction with the New Dimension acquisition (see Note 3 -- Technology Acquisitions), the Company has accrued approximately $0.4 million for estimated costs to terminate certain operating leases for duplicate office space. As of June 30, 1999, the Company has paid approximately $2 million for restructuring related charges, comprised mostly of employee termination benefits. In addition to the restructuring charges, the Company incurred various direct transaction costs, such as investment banking, legal and accounting fees, pursuant to the Boole and New Dimension transactions. As of June 30, 1999, the Company's accrual for unpaid transaction costs approximated $22.3 million. The Company expects that payment of these accruals will occur by the end of fiscal 2000. The following table summarizes the activity during the three months ended June 30, 1999, in the accruals for acquisition and other costs, excluding direct transaction costs (in millions): PAID OUT OR INCREASE IN BALANCE AT CHARGED AGAINST REVISION OF ACCRUAL DUE TO BALANCE AT MARCH 31, 1999 THE RELATED ASSETS THE ACCRUAL NEW DIMENSION JUNE 30, 1999 -------------- ------------------ ----------- -------------- ------------- Facility costs and write-down of fixed assets to be disposed of............................. $10.2 $ -- $(2.0) $0.4 $ 8.6 Employee termination benefits.... 7.0 (1.7) 12.1 -- 17.4 Other merger related costs....... 0.5 (0.1) -- -- 0.4 ----- ----- ----- ---- ----- Total.................. $17.7 $(1.8) $10.1 $0.4 $26.4 ===== ===== ===== ==== ===== This accrual, which excludes accrued transaction costs, represents management's best estimate, based on available information as of June 30, 1999, of identifiable and quantifiable charges that the Company anticipates it will incur as a result of the actions taken under the Plan. The Company expects to incur other costs which were either not quantifiable or to which the Company had not committed to a course of action as of June 30, 1999, and therefore, have not been included in the accrual. These costs could have a material adverse impact on future operating results. In addition to costs included in the accrual for the merger and restructuring plan, the Company will incur other incremental expenses in the near term as a direct result of its integration efforts, but for which classification as restructuring charges is not allowed under current accounting standards. These items, such as relocation and retraining of personnel and development or marketing efforts for enhanced or integrated products, could be significant to future operating results. 9 11 BMC SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION This section of the Form 10-Q includes historical information for the periods covered, certain forward looking information and the information provided below under the heading "Certain Risks and Uncertainties that Could Affect Future Operating Results" about certain risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company's future operating results to differ from the results indicated by any forward looking statements made by the Company or others. It is important that the historical discussion below be read together with the attached consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, with the discussion of such risks and uncertainties and with the audited financial statements and notes thereto, and the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition, contained in the Company's Form 10-K for fiscal 1999. A. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the percentages that selected items in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings bear to total revenues. These comparisons of financial results are not necessarily indicative of future results. PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL REVENUE FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, ------------------- 1998 1999 ------ ------ Revenues: License................................................... 68.2% 69.8% Maintenance............................................... 31.8 30.2 ----- ----- 100.0 100.0 Operating expenses: Selling and marketing..................................... 32.1 35.0 Research and development.................................. 14.4 14.4 Cost of maintenance services and product licenses......... 11.6 9.3 General and administrative................................ 7.4 8.5 Acquired research and development costs................... 6.2 20.2 Amortization of goodwill & intangibles.................... -- 7.6 Merger related costs...................................... -- 3.1 ----- ----- Operating income............................................ 28.3 1.9 Other income................................................ 4.8 2.7 ----- ----- Earnings before taxes....................................... 33.1 4.6 Income taxes................................................ 9.0 .5 ----- ----- Net earnings...................................... 24.1% 4.1% ===== ===== 10 12 REVENUES THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, ------------------- (IN THOUSANDS) 1998 1999 CHANGE -------- -------- ------ North American license revenues............................. $124,290 $202,381 62.8% International license revenues.............................. 66,136 77,401 17.0% -------- -------- Total license revenues............................. 190,426 279,782 46.9% North American maintenance revenues......................... 52,365 74,449 42.2% International maintenance revenues.......................... 36,493 46,500 27.4% -------- -------- Total maintenance revenues.................................. 88,858 120,949 36.1% -------- -------- Total revenues..................................... $279,284 $400,731 43.5% ======== ======== Product Line Revenues At June 30, 1999, the Company marketed over 450 software products designed to improve the availability, performance and recoverability of enterprise applications, databases and other Information Technology ("IT") systems components operating in host mainframe and distributed computing environments. The Company's mainframe products accounted for 74% and 70% of total revenues in the quarters ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively. Total revenues from mainframe products grew 37% from the first quarter of fiscal 1999 to the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The revenues from these products are driven largely by the growth in customers' processing capacity. The decline in relative revenue contribution by the mainframe product lines reflects the increased contribution by the Company's distributed systems products in these periods. Excluding revenues associated with New Dimension Software Ltd., which the Company acquired in a purchase accounting transaction in April 1999, total revenue growth was approximately 39% in the June 1999 quarter. The high performance utilities and administrative tools for IBM's IMS and DB2 database management systems comprise the largest portion of the Company's mainframe-based revenues and total revenues. The Company's tools and utilities for IMS and DB2 databases collectively contributed 44% and 45% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively. Total revenues and license revenues from these product lines combined grew 46% and 53%, respectively, in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The Company's other products for the OS/390 mainframe environment contributed 30% and 25% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively. Total revenues and license revenues for these other mainframe products grew 22% and 23%, respectively, in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. Distributed systems product revenue growth was derived primarily from increased market acceptance of the PATROL application and data management product suite, the Company's significant and growing investment in its distributed systems direct and indirect sales channels and higher distributed systems maintenance fees. The Company's distributed systems product lines comprise the PATROL application and database management solutions, the BEST/1 performance management products, the PATROL DB database administration products, the SQL-Backtrack application and database recovery products and the COMMAND/POST, Spaceview and Command MQ products. With the New Dimension acquisition, the Company has added the Control M job scheduling products, Control D output management products and Control SA security administration products for distributed systems environments. In total, the distributed systems product lines contributed 26% and 30% of total revenues for the quarters ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively, and 29% and 32% of license revenues for the same periods. Total distributed systems revenues grew 63% and license revenues from distributed systems grew 59% in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The revenues from the Company's distributed systems product offerings depend upon the continued market acceptance of the Company's existing products and the Company's ability to successfully develop and deliver additional products for the distributed systems environment. The Company has experienced rapid growth in its distributed systems product lines since their introduction in late fiscal 1994. The distributed systems market is highly competitive and dynamic and there can be no assurance that this growth will continue. 11 13 License Revenues License revenues consist of product license fees and license upgrade fees. The Company licenses its products primarily in two ways: by copy and on an enterprise license basis by aggregate licensed capacity. When products are licensed on a per copy basis, license revenues from the initial licensing of each copy of the product are product license fees. All revenues from the customer's licensing of the right to use a previously licensed copy on a larger computer are license upgrade fees. When products are licensed on an enterprise, aggregate licensed capacity basis, all license revenues associated with the first time licensing of such products are product license fees. All revenues associated with the licensing of a previously licensed product to operate on additional aggregate processing capacity are license upgrade fees. License upgrade fees and enterprise license fees are primarily generated by the Company's mainframe products. License upgrade fees include fees associated with a customer's current additional processing capacity and fees associated with a customer's future anticipated additional processing capacity. The definition of product license fees received when a product is licensed on an aggregate licensed capacity basis became effective for the June 1999 quarter and represents a change from the Company's practices prior to acquiring Boole & Babbage and New Dimension. Previously in aggregate licensed capacity transactions, revenues associated with the first time licensing of a product were allocated between revenues associated with the customer's current processing capacity, which were categorized as product license fees, and revenues associated with future processing capacity, which were categorized as license upgrade fees. Now all of these fees are categorized as product license fees. The effect of this change is to increase the amount of revenues allocated to product license fees and to decrease the amount of revenues allocated to license upgrade fees. For large enterprise license transactions that include newly licensed products, the effect of this change is significant. This change solely impacts the Company's internal characterization of license revenues and has no effect on the Company's license revenue recognition. The Company's North American operations generated 65% of total license revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 1998 and 72% for the corresponding quarter ended June 30, 1999. The 63% growth in North American license revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 over the first quarter of fiscal 1999 was derived principally from increased product license fees generated from initial licenses of the Company's distributed systems products which includes such licenses pertaining to future MIPS, and capacity-based license upgrade fees from mainframe products. The Company closed a large single enterprise license transaction in the June 1999 quarter, as discussed in Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. International license revenues represented 35% and 28% of total license revenues for the quarters ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively. International license revenue growth of 17% from the first quarter of fiscal 1999 to the comparable quarter of fiscal 2000 was principally derived from increased product license fees generated from initial licenses and license upgrade fees associated with mainframe products. The sustainability and growth of the Company's mainframe-based license revenues are dependent upon capacity-based license upgrade fees, particularly within its largest customer accounts. Most of the Company's largest customers have entered into enterprise license agreements allowing them to install the Company's products on an number of CPUs, subject to a maximum limit on the aggregate power of the CPUs as measured in MIPS. Additional fees are due if the MIPS limit is exceeded. Substantially all of these transactions include license upgrade fees associated with additional processing capacity beyond the customer's current usage level and some include product license fees for additional products. The fees associated with future additional mainframe processing capacity typically comprise from one-half to substantially all of the license fees included in the enterprise license transaction. During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, license upgrade fees accounted for 36% of total revenues. The Company has experienced a strong increase in demand from its largest customers for the right to run its products on increased current and anticipated mainframe processing capacity as enterprises invest heavily in their core OS/390 mainframe information systems. This trend has led to larger single transactions with higher per MIPS discounts. The Company expects that it will continue to be dependent upon these capacity-related license upgrade fees. With the rapid advancement of distributed systems technology and customers' needs for more functional and open applications, such as pre-packaged ERP applications, to replace legacy systems, there can be no assurance that the demand for mainframe processing capacity or the perceived benefits of the Company's core mainframe products will continue at current levels. Should this trend slow dramatically or reverse, it would adversely impact the 12 14 Company's mainframe license revenues and its operating results. See the discussion below under the heading "Certain Risks and Uncertainties that Could Affect Future Operating Results." Maintenance and Support Revenues Maintenance and support revenues represent the ratable recognition of fees to enroll licensed products in the Company's software maintenance, enhancement and support program, and recognition of revenues from professional services performed during the period by the Company's respective services business. Maintenance and support enrollment entitles customers to product enhancements, technical support services and ongoing compatibility with third-party operating systems, database management systems and applications. These fees are generally charged annually and equal 15% to 20% of the list price of the product at the time of renewal, less any applicable discounts. Customers that elect to prepay for multiple years of maintenance coverage receive an additional, time-value-of-money discount. Maintenance revenues also include the ratable recognition of the bundled fees for any first-year maintenance services covered by the related perpetual license agreement. The Company continues to invest heavily in product maintenance and support and believes that maintaining its reputation for superior product support is a key component of its value pricing model. Maintenance revenues have increased over the last three fiscal years as a result of the continuing growth in the base of installed products and the processing capacity on which they run. Maintenance fees increase as the processing capacity on which the products are installed increases; consequently, the Company receives higher absolute maintenance fees as customers install its products on additional processing capacity. Due to increased discounting at higher levels of additional processing capacity, the maintenance fees on a per MIPS basis are typically reduced in enterprise license agreements. Historically, the Company has enjoyed high maintenance renewal rates for its mainframe-based products. Should customers migrate from their mainframe applications or find alternatives to the Company's products, increased cancellations could adversely impact the sustainability and growth of the Company's maintenance revenues. To date, the Company has been successful in extending its traditional maintenance and support pricing model to the distributed systems market. At this time, there is insufficient historical data to determine whether customers will continue to accept this pricing model and renew their maintenance and support contracts at the levels experienced in the mainframe market. Total maintenance revenues have also increased as a result of increased revenues from the Company's growing services and training organization. OPERATING EXPENSES THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, ------------------- (IN THOUSANDS) 1998 1999 CHANGE -------- -------- ------ Selling and marketing................................... $ 89,801 $140,359 56.3% Research and development................................ 40,154 57,552 43.3% Cost of maintenance services and product licenses....... 32,434 37,199 14.7% General and administrative.............................. 20,747 34,295 65.3% Acquired research and Development....................... 17,304 80,800 366.9% Amortization of goodwill and intangibles................ -- 30,359 N/A Merger related costs.................................... -- 12,487 N/A -------- -------- Total operating expenses...................... $200,440 $393,051 96.1% ======== ======== Selling and Marketing The Company's selling and marketing expenses include personnel and related costs, sales commissions and costs associated with advertising, industry trade shows and sales seminars. Personnel costs were the largest single contributor to the expense growth in the three months ended June 30, 1999. This increase was primarily attributable to significant hiring of additional distributed systems sales representatives and technical sales support consultants as well as significant growth in the Company's professional services group. Sales commissions increased in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 as a result of the 47% increase in license revenues. Improved sales representative productivity, coupled with normal commission plan modifications, held sales commission expense growth below license revenue growth. Marketing costs have continued to increase to meet the requirements of marketing a greater number of increasingly complex distributed systems products and to 13 15 support a growing indirect distribution channel. Marketing expenses were further impacted by a major re-branding effort undertaken during the quarter. Other contributors to the increase were significantly higher levels of travel and entertainment expenses. Research and Development Research and development expenses mainly comprise personnel costs related to software developers and development support personnel, including software programmers, testing and quality assurance personnel and writers of technical documentation such as product manuals and installation guides. These expenses also include computer hardware/software costs and telecommunications expenses necessary to maintain the Company's data processing center. Increases in the Company's research and development expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 were the result of increased compensation costs associated with both software developers and development support personnel, as well as associated benefits and facilities costs. Research and development costs were reduced by amounts capitalized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 86. The Company capitalizes its software development costs when the projects under development reach technological feasibility as defined by SFAS No. 86. During the first quarter of fiscal 1999 and 2000, the Company capitalized approximately $12.5 million and $16.9 million, respectively, of software development costs. The growth in capitalized costs is primarily due to increases in new distributed systems product development, the porting of existing distributed systems products to alternate environments and increased integration development activity. Cost of Maintenance Services and Product Licenses Cost of maintenance services and product licenses consists of amortization of purchased and internally developed software, costs associated with the maintenance, enhancement and support of the Company's products and royalty fees. Growth in the cost of maintenance services and product licenses from the first quarter of fiscal 1999 to the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was due to increases in technical and customer support employees and capitalized software amortization. The Company amortized $4.6 million and $5.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 and 2000, respectively, of capitalized software development costs pursuant to SFAS No. 86. In these periods, the Company expensed $1.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively, of capitalized software development costs to accelerate the amortization of certain software products. The Company accelerated the amortization of these software products as they were not expected to generate sufficient future revenues which would be required for the Company to realize the carrying value of the assets. The Company expects its cost of maintenance services and product licenses will continue to increase as the Company capitalizes a higher level of software development costs and as the Company builds its distributed systems product support organization, which is less cost-effective than its mainframe support organization because of the complexity and variability of the environments in which the products operate. The distributed systems products operate in a high number of operating environments, including operating systems, DBMSs and ERP applications and require greater ongoing platform support development activity relative to the Company's OS/390 mainframe products. General and Administrative General and administrative expenses are comprised primarily of compensation and personnel costs within executive management, finance and accounting, product distribution, facilities management and human resources. Other expenses included in general and administrative expenses are fees paid for legal and accounting services, consulting projects, insurance and costs of managing the Company's foreign currency exposure. Growth in general and administrative expenses from the first quarter of fiscal 1999 to the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was largely due to certain non-recurring items within legal fees and bad debt expense along with increased personnel costs and higher costs associated with the related infrastructure to support the Company's growth. 14 16 Acquired Research and Development and Related Costs The Company incurred acquired IPR&D costs for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 of $17.3 million and $80.8 million, respectively. These technology charges related to the acquisitions of in-process technologies and technology rights in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 and the acquisition of New Dimension in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The following table presents information, in thousands, concerning the purchase price allocations for the acquisitions accounted for under the purchase method for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999. ACQUIRED GOODWILL TOTAL COMPANY NAME SOFTWARE IPR&D AND OTHER PRICE - ------------ -------- -------- --------- -------- Fiscal 1999: Nastel.................................... $ -- $ 6,000 $ -- $ 6,000 Envive.................................... 6,400 11,304 -- 17,704 -------- ------- -------- -------- $ 6,400 $17,304 $ -- $ 23,704 ======== ======= ======== ======== Fiscal 2000: New Dimension............................. $126,300 $80,800 $465,946 $673,046 -------- ------- -------- -------- $126,300 $80,800 $465,946 $673,046 ======== ======= ======== ======== In the latter part of fiscal 1998, the Company was in the process of designing a middleware management product to assist customers with optimizing middleware performance and with handling enterprise environmental changes. In this regard, in April 1998, the Company acquired a license from Nastel Technologies, Inc. (Nastel) for certain infrastructure source code for use in its MQ management product that was under development, but had not yet reached technological feasibility. Accordingly, the Company allocated the entire $6 million purchase price to IPR&D. The Company completed the acquired IPR&D by creating an effective installation routine, developing an automated MQ configuration routine, fortifying the underlying Nastel database and modifying the code to work in environments with complementary management products. Upon completion of the IPR&D, the Company completed the initial related product after developing efficient data collection, user interface and business logic code. In June 1998, the Company entered into a technology agreement with Envive Corporation (Envive) primarily to strengthen BMC's ERP business management solutions to provide better diagnostic and correlation ability, service level management and end-to-end monitoring capability. The Company also secured the rights to distribute certain products in the SAP management market. The Company's committed costs associated with the transaction approximated $17.7 million. The Company allocated $6.4 million of the transaction to software assets, prepaid royalties and interest. The remaining $11.3 million was allocated to acquired IPR&D that had not reached technological feasibility as of the date of the transaction. The Company is in the process of evaluating the alternative levels of commitment and effort required to develop the above- mentioned functionality in the non-SAP environments. The range of future expenditures associated with these alternatives is $0.5 million to $3.5 million. On April 14, 1999, the Company acquired through a public tender offer in excess of 95% of the outstanding ordinary shares of New Dimension for approximately $673 million in total consideration. The purchase price includes the Company's historical cost of approximately $2 million for shares of New Dimension previously owned by Boole. Unrealized gains related to these New Dimension shares of approximately $22 million included in long term marketable securities and accumulated other comprehensive income at March 31, 1999 were eliminated at the closing of the purchase. In order to fund the purchase price, the Company entered into a 364-day unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of banks on which the Company drew down approximately $500 million of short-term borrowings. The remaining consideration was satisfied from the Company's existing working capital. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction, and the purchase price was allocated as follows: $126 million to software assets, $436 million to goodwill and other intangibles, and $30 million to 15 17 equipment, receivables and other non-software assets, net of liabilities assumed. Additionally, the Company allocated $80.8 million, or 12% of the purchase price, to IPR&D, which was charged to expense in the June 1999 quarter. Purchased IPR&D represents the present value of the estimated after-tax cash flows expected to be generated by the purchased technology, which, at the acquisition date, had not yet reached technological feasibility nor had alternative future use. New Dimension groups its product lines into five categories: (i) Enterprise Production Management ("EPM"), (ii) Enterprise Output Management ("EOM"), (iii) Enterprise Event Management ("EEM"), (iv) Enterprise Security Management ("ESM"), and (v) Tandem Solutions ("TS"). New Dimension's primary IPR&D efforts can be summarized into four categories: (i) Integrated Operations Architecture for the Enterprise ("IOA/e"), (ii) Odaiko, (iii) E-business Enablement, and (iv) Security. These technologies will be incorporated into new releases of products within the categories listed above. Integrated Operations Architecture for the Enterprise. IOA/e is the supporting infrastructure for all of the distributed systems products from New Dimension. This infrastructure is anticipated to be the key enabler for all of the New Dimension products going forward. The intent of the project is to maintain competitiveness and ensure the product infrastructure can support all key customer requirements and product developments. It is also the intent of this infrastructure to ensure that products can scale to meet the growing demands customers are placing on them. This infrastructure will be the distributed systems version of the Integrated Operations Architecture for New Dimension's mainframe products. The goals of the project are to ensure easy configuration and installation of all of the products, increase the scalability of the products, ensure a common look and feel, and enable them to be better integrated with each other. The intent is to ensure that each of the products could be autonomous or fully integrated depending upon the customers' needs. Odaiko. Odaiko is the next major release of the Output Management family of products focused specifically on broadening this product family from purely a mainframe output management system to an enterprise-wide document and output management product family. Currently, this product family supports a document archive only on the mainframe, viewing of reports on a terminal or a PC and distribution of the reports to network connected printers. Odaiko will not only enable the end user to view the archived reports via a Web browser but also will give them the ability to customize the view of the data, making it easier for the customer to create e-business applications. This requires the interpretation of a variety of document formats (e.g., Xerox, IBM, Microsoft) and transformation of those formats into JPEG or HTML formats easily read via a Web browser. This project also entails the creation of lower-end repositories on UNIX and Windows NT. This enables customers to use a mainframe, UNIX or Windows NT system to archive their reports. This will allow customers to store reports on whatever systems they have and scale up to terabyte storage systems only currently available on mainframe systems. E-business Enablement. E-business enablement is the development of the infrastructure necessary to "internet-ize" the entire New Dimension product family. Each of the products that will utilize e-business enablement are Internet applications which not only provide a browser-based front-end but also are brand new applications with new and important functionality that customers require. Security. The security market is brand new for New Dimension. Customers have accepted the technology offered in current products and are asking for additional features and add-on applications to enable them to make better use of these applications. The current technology supports the administration of passwords and user ID's of security systems (e.g., RACF, TopSecret, ACF2, SEOS), applications (e.g., Lotus Notes, SAP R/3, Microsoft Exchange), databases (e.g., Oracle, Informix, MS SOL Server) and operating systems (e.g., UNIX, Microsoft Windows NT). It does this by placing an agent on each managed node along with a module, which understands how to communicate with each Resident Security System ("RSS"). These agent/module combinations communicate with a repository and the Enterprise Security Station ("ESS") console. Customer requirements drive the porting of the agent to each new operating system and platform as well as to support new RSS's. Key IPR&D projects involve the support of new RSS's including firewalls, ERP applications, and other security systems and platforms (e.g., Tandem). Additional features within the IPR&D project include the ability to have users request and create new passwords and user ID's. These passwords and 16 18 user ID's would then be utilized or synchronized across all of the applications and systems that a user accesses. This technology will be Web-based and will allow end-users to enter their user ID and password and automatically register it with the appropriate applications, then trigger the synchronization job, while allowing for the system to monitor access. A significant portion of the IPR&D value also relates to the (i) CONTROL-M, (ii) CONTROL-D, (iii) CONTROL-SA, and (iv) Enterprise Controlstation ("ECS") products. The IPR&D projects associated with these products have accounted for approximately $4.8 million of R&D expense. Remaining anticipated development costs in connection these IPR&D projects at the time of acquisition are expected to be approximately $3.5 million. The following is a summary of the primary IPR&D related to CONTROL-M, CONTROL-D, CONTROL-SA, and ECS. CONTROL-M - new Two Tier architecture for big SYSPLEX environments - an independent database layer (one source code for all supported databases) - functionality allowing for the ability to perform actions on a group of projects CONTROL-D - repository for providing multi-level, global indexing of data - SYSPLEX support - CONTROL-D technology for the Win/NT environment CONTROL-SA - security for managing users of Internet e-commerce applications - enhanced administration of control access rights - ability to be access and manage various enterprise applications - password synchronization ECS - functionality allowing for the ability to perform actions on a group of projects - mass environment management on Windows NT platform - enhanced diagnostics and problem determination tools - compatibility with Oracle databases. As of the date of the acquisition, the Company concluded that the in-process technology had no alternative future use after taking into consideration the potential use of the technology in different products, the stage of development and life cycle of each project, resale of the software, and internal use. As such, the value of the purchased IPR&D was expensed at the time of the acquisition. Remaining anticipated development costs in connection with all the products classified as in-process technology at the time of acquisition are expected to be approximately $26.5 million. Projected completion dates range from two to twenty months, at which time the Company expects to begin selling those developed products. The Company intends to continue devoting effort to developing commercially viable products from the purchased IPR&D, although it may not develop such commercially viable products. All of the foregoing estimates and projections were based on assumptions the Company believed to be reasonable at the time but which were inherently uncertain and unpredictable. The values assigned to acquired IPR&D in the above mentioned transactions were generally determined by estimating the costs to develop the purchased in-process technology into commercially viable products, estimating the resulting net cash flows from the projects and discounting the net cash flows to their present value. The revenue projections used to value the acquired IPR&D were based on estimates of relevant market 17 19 sizes and growth factors, expected trends in technology, and the nature and expected timing of new product introductions by the Company and its competitors. Operating expenses were estimated based on historical results and anticipated profit margins. Due to purchasing power increases and general economies of scale, estimated operating expenses as a percentage of revenues were, in some cases, estimated to decrease after the acquisitions. The rates utilized to discount the net cash flows to their present value were based on cost of capital calculations and venture capital rates of return. Due to the nature of the forecast and risks associated with the projected growth, profitability and the developmental nature of the projects, a 20% discount rate was used to value the New Dimension acquired IPR&D. The Company used a 15% rate in discounting the cash flows associated with the developed New Dimension technology. The Company believes these discount rates are commensurate with the respective stage of development and the uncertainties in the economic estimates described above. If the acquired IPR&D projects are not successfully completed, the Company's business, operating results, and financial condition may be materially adversely affected in future periods. In addition, the value of other intangible assets acquired may become impaired. Amortization of Goodwill and Intangibles In connection with the application of the purchase accounting method to the Company's acquisitions, portions of the purchase price were allocated to goodwill, workforce, customer base, software and other intangible assets. The Company is amortizing these intangibles over 4 to 5 year periods which reflect the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The increase in the quarterly amortization expense is directly related to the acquisition of New Dimension discussed above. Merger Related Costs In conjunction with the Company's merger with Boole in March 1999, the Company's management approved a formal plan of restructuring (the "Plan") which included steps to be taken to integrate the operations of the two companies, consolidate duplicate facilities and streamline operations to achieve reductions in overhead expenses in future periods. In connection with the Plan, the Company charged $12.5 million, including transaction costs, to expense during the June 1999 quarter. As of June 30, 1999, the Company has accrued merger related costs of approximately $49 million comprised principally of the following components: employee related expenses including severance and other benefits, costs to eliminate duplicate facilities, transaction costs and impairment of assets to be disposed of as a result of integrating the combined companies. OTHER INCOME For the first quarter of fiscal 2000, other income was $10.9 million, reflecting a decrease of 19% from $13.5 million of other income in the same quarter of fiscal 1999. Other income consists primarily of interest earned on tax-exempt municipal securities, euro bonds, corporate bonds, mortgage securities and money market funds. The decrease in other income is primarily due to approximately $6 million in interest expense related to the revolving credit facility entered into in April 1999. INCOME TAXES For the first quarter of fiscal 2000, income tax expense was $2.3 million compared to $25.1 million for the same quarter in fiscal 1999. The Company's lower income tax expense related primarily to the benefit of the New Dimension IPR&D write-off and certain other one-time charges associated with restructuring efforts. The Company's income tax expense represents the federal statutory rate of 35%, plus certain foreign and state taxes, reduced primarily by the benefit from lower income taxes associated with the Company's European operations and the effect of tax exempt interest earned from cash investments. 18 20 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company has financed its growth through funds generated from operations. As of June 30, 1999, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and investment securities of $1.1 billion. The Company did not repurchase any of its common shares on the open market during the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The Company believes that existing cash balances and funds generated from operations will be sufficient to meet its liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future. B. CERTAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT COULD AFFECT FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS. Volatility of Stock Price; Risk of Litigation. The Company's stock price has been and is highly volatile. The Company's stock price is based almost completely on current expectations of sustained future revenue and earnings growth rates. Any failure to meet anticipated revenue and earnings levels in a period or any negative change in perceived long-term growth prospects of the Company would likely have a significant adverse effect on the Company's stock price. The growth rates of the Company's license revenues, total revenues, net earnings and earnings per share, excluding one-time charges, have accelerated in recent quarters. This growth should not be seen as indicative of future results. The Timing and Size of License Contracts Could Cause Quarterly Revenues and Earnings to Fluctuate. The Company's revenues and results of operations are difficult to predict and may fluctuate substantially. The timing and amount of the Company's license revenues are subject to a number of factors that make estimation of operating results prior to the end of a quarter extremely uncertain. The Company generally operates with little or no sales backlog and, as a result, license revenues in any quarter are dependent upon contracts entered into or orders booked and shipped in that quarter. Most of the Company's sales are closed at the end of each quarter. There has been and continues to be a trend toward larger enterprise license transactions, which can have sales cycles of up to a year or more and require approval by a customer's upper management. These transactions are typically difficult to manage and predict. Failure to close an expected individually significant transaction or multiple expected transactions could cause the Company's revenues and earnings in a period to fall short of expectations. The Company generally does not know whether revenues and earnings will meet expected results until the final days or day of a quarter. Year 2000 Concerns Could Reduce Revenues and Earnings. In addition, each customer's evaluation of its need to achieve Year 2000 compliance may affect its purchase decision. Many analysts believe that many customers and potential customers are heavily engaged in testing and correcting system Year 2000 problems, and therefore, such customers may choose to defer system investments during calendar 1999, negatively impacting the Company's revenues. In addition, the Company's sales cycles may lengthen in 1999 and future years due to lessened urgency of customers' system investment decisions. Because Year 2000 related impacts on customer purchasing decisions are unprecedented, the Company has a limited ability to forecast accurately the impact of the Year 2000 issue on its quarter-to-quarter revenues. High Degree of Operating Leverage. The Company's business model is characterized by a very high degree of operating leverage. A substantial portion of the Company's operating costs and expenses consist of employee and facility related costs, which are relatively fixed over the short term. In addition, the Company's expense levels and hiring plans are based substantially on the Company's projections of future revenue. If near term demand weakens in a given quarter, there would likely be a material adverse effect on operating results and a resultant drop in the Company's stock price. Risks Related to Contraction of Operating Margins. There is a risk that the Company will not be able to sustain its high operating margins which would adversely affect its earnings. The Company's operating margins, excluding one-time charges, have varied from the low to mid 30% range in recent quarters, which is at the high-end of the range for peer companies. The Company does not compile margin analysis other than on an aggregated basis; however, the Company believes that the operating margins associated with its distributed systems products are substantially below those of its traditional mainframe products. Since the Company's mix of business continues to shift to distributed systems revenues and since research and 19 21 development, sales, support and distribution costs for distributed systems software products are generally higher than for mainframe products, operating margins will experience more pressure. The Company may be unable to increase or even maintain its current level of profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. Additionally, Boole and New Dimension historically experienced lower operating margins than BMC. Although the Company expects to increase the profitability from the integrated Boole and New Dimension operations to more closely resemble BMC's historical margins, there is no guaranty the Company will be successful or certainty of the length of time which the Company will require to accomplish this goal. Increased Competition and Pricing Pressures Could Adversely Affect Sales. The market for systems management software has been increasingly competitive for the past number of years and is currently intensifying. The Company competes with a variety of software vendors including IBM and Computer Associates International, Inc. ("CA"). If IBM is successful with its efforts to achieve performance and functional equivalence with the Company's products at a lower cost, the Company's business will be materially adversely affected. The Company derived approximately 70% of its total revenues in fiscal 1999 from software products for IBM and IBM-compatible mainframe computers. IBM continues to focus on reducing the overall software costs associated with the OS/390 mainframe platform. IBM continues, directly and through third parties, to aggressively enhance its utilities for IMS and DB2 to provide lower cost alternatives to the products provided by the Company and other independent software vendors. IBM has significantly increased its level of activity in the IMS and DB2 high speed utility markets over the last two years. CA has recently entered the mainframe database tools and utilities market with its acquisition of Platinum Technology International, Inc. and has announced its intention to compete with the Company in these markets. Capacity-based upgrade fees associated with both current and future processing capacity contributed approximately one-fourth to one-third of total BMC revenues each of fiscal years 1997, 1998 and 1999. Historically, these fees were not separately captured by Boole; however, the Company does not believe that the addition of Boole would significantly change the contribution of these fees to total revenues. The charging of upgrade fees based on CPU tier classifications is standard among mainframe systems software vendors, including IBM. While the Company believes its current pricing policies properly reflect the value provided by its products, the pricing of mainframe systems software and particularly the charging of capacity-based upgrade fees is under constant pressure from customers and competitive vendors. IBM continues to reduce the costs of its mainframe systems software to increase the overall cost competitiveness of its mainframe hardware and software products. IBM also generally charges less for its software products. These actions continue to increase pricing pressures with the mainframe systems software markets. The Company has continued to reduce the cost of its mainframe tools and utilities in response to these and other competitive pressures. Decreasing Demand for Mainframe Processing Capacity Could Adversely Affect Revenues. Fees from enterprise license transactions remain fundamental components of the Company's revenues and the primary source of mainframe revenues. These revenues depend upon the Company's customers continuing to perceive an increasing need to use the Company's existing software products on substantially greater mainframe processing capacity in future periods. The Company believes that the demand for enterprise licenses has been driven by customer's recommitment over the last 36 months to the OS/390 mainframe platform for large scale, transaction intensive information systems. Whether this trend will continue is difficult to predict. If the Company's customers' processing capacity growth were too slow and/or if such customers were to perceive less relative benefit from the Company's current mainframe products, the Company's revenues would be adversely affected. Failure to Adapt to Technological Change Could Adversely Affect the Company's Earnings. If the Company fails to keep pace with technological change in its industry, such failure would have an adverse effect on its revenues and earnings. The Company operates in a highly competitive industry characterized by rapid technological change, evolving industry standards, changes in customer requirements and frequent new product introductions and enhancements. The distributed systems and application management markets in which the Company operates are far more crowded and competitive than its traditional mainframe systems management markets. The Company's ability to compete effectively and its growth prospects depend upon many factors, including the success of its existing client/server systems products, the timely introduction and success of future software products and the ability of its products to interoperate and perform well with 20 22 existing and future leading databases and other platforms supported by its products. The Company has experienced long development cycles and product delays in the past, particularly with some of its client/server systems products, and expects to have delays in the future. Delays in new mainframe or client/server systems product introductions or less-than-anticipated market acceptance of these new products are possible and would have an adverse effect on the Company's revenues and earnings. New products or new versions of existing products may, despite testing, contain undetected errors or bugs that will delay the introduction or adversely affect commercial acceptance of such products. Pricing Practices; Product Lines. The Company may choose in fiscal year 2000 or a future fiscal year to make changes to its product packaging, pricing or licensing programs. Such changes may have a material adverse impact on revenues or earnings, and such changes may cause the Company to revise its guidance on future operating results. Risks Related To Business Combinations. As part of its overall strategy, the Company has acquired or invested in, and plans to continue to acquire or invest in, complementary companies, products, technologies and to enter into joint ventures and strategic alliances with other companies. The Company's acquisitions of DataTools in May 1997; BGS Systems, Inc. ("BGS") in March 1998, Boole in March 1999 and New Dimension in April 1999 are the results of this strategy. Risks commonly encountered in such transactions include: the difficulty of assimilating the operations and personnel of the combined companies; the risk that the Company may not be able to integrate the acquired technologies or products with its current products and technologies; the potential disruption of the Company's ongoing business; the inability to retain key technical and managerial personnel; the inability of management to maximize the financial and strategic position of the Company through the successful integration of acquired businesses; and decreases in reported earnings as a result of charges for in-process research and development and amortization of acquired intangible assets. In order for the Company to maximize the return on its investments in BGS, Boole and New Dimension, the products of these various entities must be integrated with each other and with the Company's existing products. Integration of the BEST/1 and COMMAND/POST products with PATROL is also very important. The Company is integrating the MainView product line with its IMS, DB2 and other OS/390 products and the BEST/1 products with the COMMAND/POST and MainView products, adding to the complexity of the task of integration. Each of these integrations will be difficult and unpredictable, especially given that these software products are highly complex, have been developed independently and were designed with no regard to such integration. The difficulties are compounded when the products involved are well established, as these are, because compatibility with the existing base of installed products must be preserved. Successful integration of these product lines also requires coordination of different development and engineering teams. This too will be difficult and unpredictable because of possible cultural conflicts and different opinions on technical decisions and product roadmaps. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in these product integration efforts or that the Company will realize the expected benefits. With the acquisitions of BGS, Boole and New Dimension, the Company has initiated efforts to integrate the disparate cultures, employees, systems and products of these companies. In all three acquisitions, retention of key employees is critical to ensure the continued advancement, development, support, sales and marketing efforts pertaining to the acquired products. The Company has implemented retention programs to keep many of the key technical, sales and marketing employees; nonetheless, the Company has lost some key employees. The Company has also elected to retain the principal locations of BGS, Boole and New Dimension and has reorganized the management structure at all of these locations. The Company has not historically managed significant, fully staffed business units at locations different from the Company's headquarters. As a result, the Company may experience difficulties. Risks Associated With Managing Growth. The Company has experienced an extended period of: (i) significant revenue growth; (ii) acquisitions; (iii) expansion of its software product lines and supported platforms; (iv) significant expansion in its number of employees; (v) increased pressure on the viability and scope of its operating and financial systems; and (vi) expansion in the geographic scope of its operations. This growth has resulted in new and increased responsibilities for management personnel and has placed a significant strain upon the Company's management, operating and financial controls and resources, including 21 23 its services and development organizations. To accommodate recent growth, compete effectively and manage potential future growth, the Company must continue to implement and improve the speed and quality of its information decision support systems, management decisions, reporting systems, procedures and controls. The Company's personnel, procedures, systems and controls may not be adequate to support its future operations. The Company has recently realigned its product development and marketing operations along five product market oriented groups. It is uncertain if this reorganization will yield the desired benefits and whether this organizational structure will prove effective. Risks Related to Year 2000. The Company understands the importance of ensuring that its operations will not be adversely impacted by the Year 2000 problem. The Company's Board of Directors has been briefed about the Year 2000 problem generally and has established a Year 2000 Steering Committee composed of members from key departments within the Company to oversee the adoption and implementation of a comprehensive Year 2000 plan. The Steering Committee includes representatives from Boole and New Dimension to ensure that the Company's Year 2000 compliance efforts are equally directed to the operations recently acquired by the Company. The Company's Year 2000 plan addresses not only the Year 2000 compliance of the software products offered by the Company, but extends to the Company's internal systems, such as facilities, internal information systems, as well as the Company's relationships with financial institutions, suppliers and other third parties. The Company's Year 2000 plan is comprised of four phases: (i) assessment of all of the Company's systems and technology; (ii) remediation; (iii) implementation and testing of modifications to or replacements of existing systems and technology; and (iv) contingency planning. The Company has tested the ability of its software products to process Year 2000 data without interruption or errors and believes that its products are substantially Year 2000 compliant. The Company is in the process of verifying the Year 2000 compliance of certain of the software products offered by Boole and New Dimension. Despite these tests, there can be no assurance that undetected errors or defects will not exist that could cause these software products to fail to process Year 2000 data correctly. The Company has proactively notified its customers as to the Year 2000 compliance status of its software products and has encouraged its customers to prepare their systems in anticipation of Year 2000. Nonetheless, the Company's customers may incur migration costs relative to systems that are not Year 2000 compliant or who are using versions of the Company's products that are not Year 2000 compliant. Some of these customers may assert claims against the Company for such costs. The Company's software products are typically used in high volume information systems that are critical to a customer's operations. Consequently, business interruptions, the loss or corruption of data or other major problems could result in significant adverse consequences to its customers. The Company cannot predict whether or to what extent any legal claims will be brought, or whether the Company will suffer any liability as a result of any such adverse consequences to its customers. The Company has initiated communication with certain key business partners to determine the extent to which the Company is vulnerable to those third parties' potential failure to remediate their own Year 2000 issues. The Company has consolidated its banking relationships with top tier financial institutions around the world who have represented to the Company that their respective systems are Year 2000 compliant. The bank accounts and banking relationships maintained by Boole and New Dimension are currently being evaluated to determine their Year 2000 compliance. Additionally, the Company has identified its critical suppliers and has requested Year 2000 compliance documentation from these suppliers respecting their products, services and supply chain. The Company expects this effort to be completed by September 30, 1999. The Company believes that, although its risk of operational disruption from systems failures due to Year 2000 issues is minimal, the Company could suffer adverse consequences as a result of interruptions in electrical power, telecommunications or other critical third party infrastructure services. In a worst case scenario, the Company's computer systems could be rendered inoperable, and the Company could be unable to develop or support its products. The Company has reviewed the most reasonably likely worst case scenario and is currently developing contingency plans to address such a situation. 22 24 The Company operates within a modern infrastructure. Accordingly, as of August 13, 1999, the Company has not incurred material costs in addressing Year 2000 issues, and the Company does not anticipate incurring material costs in implementing its Year 2000 plan or developing Year 2000 contingency plans. However, there can be no assurance that the actual costs of implementing the Company's Year 2000 plan will not exceed the Company's estimates or that the Company's business will not be materially adversely affected by Year 2000 issues. Risks Related to International Operations and the Euro Currency. The Company has committed, and expects to continue to commit, substantial resources and funding to build its international service and support infrastructure. Operating costs in many countries, including many of those in which the Company operates, are higher than in the United States. In order to increase international sales in fiscal year 2000 and subsequent periods, the Company must continue to globalize its software product lines; expand existing and establish additional foreign operations; hire additional personnel; identify suitable locations for sales, marketing, customer service and development; and recruit international distributors and resellers in selected territories. Future operating results are dependent on sustained performance improvement by the Company's international offices, particularly its European operations. In this regard, the economies in Europe and the Pacific Rim regions have been depressed in the past year. Revenue growth by the Company's European operations has been slower than revenue growth in North America. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in accelerating the revenue growth of its European operations. The Company's operations and financial results internationally could be significantly adversely affected by several risks such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates, sluggish regional economic conditions and difficulties in staffing and managing international operations. Generally, the Company's foreign sales are denominated in its foreign subsidiaries' local currencies. If these foreign currency exchange rates change unexpectedly, the Company could have significant gains or losses. Many systems and applications software vendors are experiencing difficulties internationally. The European Union's adoption of the Euro single currency raises a variety of issues associated with the Company's European operations. Although the transition will be phased in over several years, the Euro became Europe's single currency on January 1, 1999. The Company is assessing Euro issues related to its product pricing, contracts, treasury operations and accounting systems. Although the evaluation of these items is still in process, the Company believes that the hardware and software systems it uses internally will accommodate this transition and any required policy or operating changes will not have a material adverse effect on future results, however, failure of any critical technology components to operate properly post-Euro may adversely affect business operations or require the Company to incur unanticipated expenses to remedy any problems. Furthermore, the Company's foreign exchange exposures to legacy sovereign currencies of the participating countries in the Euro became foreign exchange exposures to the Euro upon its introduction. Although the Company is not aware of any material adverse financial risk consequences of the change from legacy sovereign currencies to the Euro, conversion may result in problems, which may have an adverse impact on the Company's business since the Company may be required to incur unanticipated expenses to remedy these problems. Conditions in Israel. The Company's New Dimension operations are conducted partially in Israel and, accordingly, the Company is directly affected by economic, political and military conditions in Israel. Any major hostilities involving Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its present trading partners could materially adversely affect the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. Israel's economy has been subject to numerous destabilizing factors, including a period of rampant inflation in the early to mid-1980's, low foreign exchange reserves, fluctuations in world commodity prices, military conflicts and civil unrest. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a state of hostility has existed, varying in degree and intensity, between Israel and the Arab countries. In addition, Israel and companies doing business with Israel have been the subject of an economic boycott by the Arab countries since Israel's establishment. Although Israel has entered into various agreements with certain Arab countries and the Palestinian Authority, and various declarations have been signed in connection with efforts to resolve 23 25 some of the economic and political problems in the Middle East, the Company cannot predict whether or in what manner these problems will be resolved. In addition, certain of the Company's New Dimension employees are currently obligated to perform annual reserve duty in the Israel Defense Forces and are subject to being called for active military duty at any time. New Dimension has operated effectively under these requirements since its inception. However, the Company cannot predict the effect of these obligations on New Dimension's operations in the future. Possible Adverse Impact Of Recent Accounting Pronouncements. The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition", SOP 98-4, "Deferral of the Effective Date of a Provision of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition", and SOP 98-9, "Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions" in October 1997, March 1998, and December 1998, respectively. These standards address software revenue recognition matters, supersede an earlier SOP and are effective for transactions entered into for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997 and, for SOP 98-99, March 15, 1999. Based on its reading and interpretation of these SOPs, the Company believes that its current sales contract terms and business arrangements have been properly reported. However, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and its Software Revenue Recognition Task Force will continue to issue interpretations and guidance for applying the relevant standards to a wide range of sales contract terms and business arrangements that are prevalent in the software industry. As the Company implements its ASA product strategy, it may have to change its current sales contract terms and business arrangements to meet its customers' needs. Future interpretations of existing accounting standards or changes in the Company's business practices could result in future changes in the Company's current revenue accounting policies that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION Certain of the information relating to the Company contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q is forward-looking in nature. All statements included or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q or made by management of the Company other than statements of historical fact regarding the Company are forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include statements regarding the Company's future financial results, operating results, market positions, product successes, business strategies, projected costs, future products, competitive positions and plans and objectives of management for future operations. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology, such as "may," "will," "should," "would," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," or "continue" or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. Any expectations based on these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and other important factors, including those discussed in this Risk Factors section. These and many other factors could affect the future financial and operating results of the Company. These factors could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations based on forward-looking statements made in this document or elsewhere by or on behalf of the Company. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company is exposed to a variety of risks, including foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and changes in the market value of its investments. In the normal course of business, the Company employs established policies and procedures to manage these risks including the use of derivative instruments. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates The Company operates globally and the functional currency for most of its non-U.S. enterprises is the local currency. For the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, approximately 37% and 31% of the Company's consolidated revenues were derived from customers outside of North America, substantially all of which were billed and collected in foreign currencies. Similarly, substantially all of the expenses of operating the Company's foreign subsidiaries are incurred in foreign currencies. As a result, the Company's U.S. dollar 24 26 earnings and net cash flows from international operations may be adversely affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To minimize the Company's risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company utilizes certain derivative financial instruments. The Company utilizes primarily two types of derivative financial instruments in managing its foreign currency exchange risk: forward exchange contracts and purchased option contracts. Forward exchange contracts are used to achieve hedges of firm commitments that subject the Company to transaction risk. The terms of the forward exchange contracts are generally one month or less and are entered into at the prevailing market rate. Purchased option contracts, with terms generally less than one year, are used by the Company to hedge anticipated, but not firmly committed, sales transactions. Principal currencies hedged are the German deutschemark, British pound and the French franc, in Europe; and, the Japanese yen and Australian dollar in the Pacific Rim region. The Company performs comparisons, on a monthly basis, of the purchased option contracts and the forecasted sales revenues to determine hedge correlation. While the Company actively manages its foreign currency risks on an ongoing basis, there can be no assurance the Company's foreign currency hedging activities will substantially offset the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates on its results of operations, cash flows and financial position. Foreign currency fluctuations did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations and financial position during the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999. Based on the Company's foreign currency exchange instruments outstanding at June 30, 1999, Company estimates that a near-term change in foreign currency rates would not materially affect its financial position, results of operations or net cash flows for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The Company used a value-at-risk (VAR) model to measure potential fair value losses due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The VAR model estimates were made assuming normal market conditions and a 95% confidence level. The VAR model is a risk estimation tool, and as such, is not intended to represent actual losses in fair value that will be incurred by the Company. Interest Rate Risk The Company adheres to a conservative investment policy, whereby its principle concern is the preservation of liquid funds while maximizing its yield on such assets. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities approximated $1.1 billion at June 30, 1999, and were invested in different types of investment-grade securities with the intent of holding these securities to maturity. Although the Company's portfolio is subject to fluctuations in interest rates and market conditions, no gain or loss on any security would actually be recognized in earnings unless the instrument was sold. The Company estimates that a near-term change in interest rates would not materially affect its financial position, results of operations or net cash flows for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The Company used a value-at-risk ("VAR") model to measure potential market risk on its marketable securities due to interest rate fluctuations. The VAR model estimates were made assuming normal market conditions and a 95% confidence level. The VAR model is a risk estimation tool, and as such, is not intended to represent actual losses in fair value that will be incurred by the Company. 25 27 PART II OTHER INFORMATION BMC SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. On March 9, 1999, a class action complaint was filed against the Company and four senior executives of the Company alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act in connection with the Company's financial statement presentation following its acquisition of BGS in March 1998 in a pooling-of-interests transaction. Four similar actions were filed in the Southern District of Texas. All of the actions were subsequently consolidated in a single action. The lawsuits were filed following the Company's announcement that it was restating its historical financial results to include BGS's financial results in the Company's financial statements as a condition to the Securities and Exchange Commission declaring effective the Company's registration statement on Form S-4 relating to its acquisition of Boole. The plaintiffs seek an unspecified amount of compensatory damages, interest and costs, including legal fees. The Company denies the allegations of wrongdoing in connection with the matters set forth in the complaint and intends to vigorously defend the action. An unfavorable judgement or settlement, however, could have a material adverse effect on the financial results of the Company. The Company filed a trade secret lawsuit styled BMC Software, Inc. vs. Peregrine Systems, Inc. et al., Cause No. 91-10161, in the 200th Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas, in August 1995. The lawsuit sought an injunction prohibiting a group of former employees and their employer from misappropriating and misusing certain of the Company's trade secrets. The Company has settled the litigation as to certain individuals and claims and is continuing to pursue its trade secret and other claims against the remaining and additional defendants. These defendants are asserting counterclaims against the Company for violations of the Texas Free Enterprise and Antitrust Act of 1983, abuse of process, slander of title, tortious interference with contract and tortious interference with advantageous and prospective business relationships. These counterclaims seek compensatory, treble and exemplary damages, costs and attorneys' fees and certain injunctive relief. Management believes the ultimate resolution of the above matters will not be material to the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Company is subject to various other legal proceeding and claims, either asserted or unasserted, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operation or consolidated financial position. ITEM 6.
