NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) (UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The information at March 31, 1997 and 1998 and for the three and six month periods then ended is unaudited, but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring entries) which the Company's management believes to be necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and changes in cash flows for the periods presented. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997. Certain information and notes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. Interim results of operations for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full fiscal year. 2. STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM In February 1998, the Company announced that it would be initiating a stock repurchase program of up to $6,000 of common stock effective immediately. No minimum number or value of shares to be repurchased has been fixed nor has a time limit as to the duration of the program been established. The Company repurchased 25 shares at a cost of $400 during the quarter ended March 31, 1998. No shares were repurchased in fiscal year 1997. The Company expects to use the repurchased stock to meet requirements of its employee stock option and stock purchase plans. 3. NET INCOME PER SHARE In February, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128), "Earnings per Share." This Statement, which the Company adopted with the quarter ended December 31, 1997, establishes and simplifies standards for computing and presenting earnings per share. SFAS 128 requires restatement of all previously reported earnings per share data that are presented. Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is determined by dividing net income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation when dilutive. Common share equivalents consisting of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding common stock options are computed using the treasury stock method. For the three and six months ended March 31, 1997, potential common stock of 555 and 606, respectively, of common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options are antidilutive as a result of the net loss for the periods, and have been excluded from the respective diluted earnings per share computations. 6 7 INFINIUM SOFTWARE, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) 3. NET INCOME PER SHARE, CONTINUED The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended March 31, 1997 and 1998 is as follows: THREE MONTHS ENDED --------------------------------------------------------------- MARCH 31, 1997 MARCH 31, 1998 ---------------------------- -------------------------- INCOME PER INCOME PER (LOSS) SHARES SHARE (LOSS) SHARES SHARE ------ ------ ----- ------ ------ ----- BASIC EARNINGS PER SHARE Income (loss) available to common stockholders $(3,731) 11,901 $(0.31) $1,385 12,363 $0.11 ======= ====== ====== ===== EFFECT OF DILUTIVE SECURITIES Stock options n/a 1,508 ------ ------ DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE Income (loss) available to common stockholders $(3,731) 11,901 $(0.31) $1,385 13,871 $0.10 ======= ====== ====== ====== ====== ===== SIX MONTHS ENDED --------------------------------------------------------------- MARCH 31, 1997 MARCH 31, 1998 ---------------------------- -------------------------- INCOME PER INCOME PER (LOSS) SHARES SHARE (LOSS) SHARES SHARE ------ ------ ----- ------ ------ ----- BASIC EARNINGS PER SHARE Income (loss) available to common stockholders $(2,800) 11,508 $(0.24) $2,438 12,287 $0.20 ======= ====== ====== ===== Income available to common EFFECT OF DILUTIVE SECURITIES Stock options n/a 1,526 ------ ------ DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE Income (loss) available to common stockholders $(2,800) 11,508 $(0.24) $2,438 13,813 $0.18 ======= ====== ====== ====== ====== ===== 4.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS All statements contained herein that are not historical facts, including but not limited to, statements regarding anticipated future revenue and expense levels and capital requirements, the Company's future product development and marketing plans, the Company's ability to generate cash from operations, and the Company's ability to attract and retain employees, are based on current expectations. These statements are forward looking in nature and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, as more fully described under "Factors Affecting Future Performance." Actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Founded in 1981, Infinium Software develops, markets and supports enterprise-level business software applications for mid-sized organizations (typically companies with revenues of $50 million to $1 billion). The Company has two primary product lines. One product line, designed for AS/400 computers, automates the financial management, human resource management and materials management functions of organizations in a broad range of industries worldwide. The Company also offers a specialized AS/400 manufacturing system designed to manage process-manufacturing operations. The Company's second product line, released during fiscal year 1997, is designed for use by customers using Microsoft Windows NT servers. It is designed to automate the financial management operations of mid-sized organizations. Additional NT applications are under development and expected to be available during fiscal year 1998. In January 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Time (Open Systems) Ltd. ("Time"), a UK-based privately held software concern which developed and marketed a suite of client/server financial management application software products. Since the acquisition of Time, the Company continues to invest in the development of these software products for the Microsoft NT server platform. The Company released Infinium Financials for Microsoft Windows NT servers for general availability in September 1997. The Company has currently under development a Microsoft NT server-based Human Resources Management product. Infinium Human Resources for Microsoft Windows NT servers is in customer test and is expected for general availability in the third fiscal quarter. Also, the Company has entered into a strategic alliance with Cambridge Technologies Partners to develop a new suite of materials management applications for the Company which will complement existing financial and human resource management applications for the Microsoft Windows NT environment. These products form the basis for the Company's expansion into the market for business applications designed for Windows NT servers. The Company's revenue is derived from two sources: software license fees and service revenue. Software license fees includes revenue from noncancelable software license agreements entered into between the Company and its customers with respect to both the Company's products and third party products distributed by the Company. Software license fee revenue is recognized upon shipment of the software and when all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied. The Company's service revenue is comprised of software maintenance fees and fees for consulting services. Maintenance fees are billed separately and are recognized ratably over the period of the maintenance agreement, which is typically one year. Consulting service revenue, which is not essential to the functionality of the software products, is recognized as the services are performed. Prior to the introduction of the Microsoft NT Server-based applications, all software applications were developed, marketed and operated predominately on the IBM AS/400 hardware platform. Accordingly, substantially all revenue recognized and associated costs during that period were attributed with AS/400 platform transactions. 8 9 The following table sets forth for the periods indicated the Company's condensed consolidated statement of income data expressed as a percentage of total revenue and the percentage of dollar increase period over period for the three and six months ended March 31, 1997 and 1998.

(19)% 6% -- (7)% 5% -- === === === === Included in operating costs and expenses above is a one-time charge of $6.8 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 1997 as a result of the write-off of in-process research and development acquired in connection with the acquisition of Time (Open Systems) Ltd. On a pro forma basis, exclusive of this one-time charge, operating costs and expenses would have been reported as $19.2 million and $36.5 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 1997, respectively, resulting in a 28% and 30% increase for the current fiscal years results over the same periods a year previous, respectively. Income from operations, on a pro forma basis, would have been reported as $0.6 million and $1.5 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 1997, respectively, resulting in a 149% and 77% increase for the current fiscal years results over the same periods a year previous, respectively. Net income, on a pro forma basis, would have been reported as $0.7 million and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 1997, respectively, resulting in an increase of 92% and 48% for the current fiscal years results over the same periods a year previous, respectively. Also on a pro forma basis, diluted earnings per share would have been reported as $0.06 and $0.14 for the three and six months ended March 31, 1997, respectively, resulting in a 67% and 29% increase for the current fiscal years results over the same periods a year previous, respectively. In addition to traditional AS/400 expenditures, included in fiscal 1998 operating costs and expenses above are those expenditures incurred by the Company with respect to the development efforts of the Microsoft NT server products, as well as expenditures attributed to the hiring and training of personnel to market and service this new product offering. QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 REVENUE. Total revenue increased 32%, from $19.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $26.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The increase was due to a greater market acceptance of the company's products resulting in increased software license fees. The Company further attributes this growth to the increased demand of businesses requiring application software solutions for the year 2000 issues which the Company offers. In addition, with each license agreement entered into, generally 9 10 consulting services and maintenance are contracted resulting in an increase in service revenue as the contracted services are delivered. Revenue in North America (United States and Canada) increased 33%, from $17.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $23.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. This is representative of 89% of total revenue for both the second quarter of fiscal year 1997 and fiscal year 1998. EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) revenue grew 35%, from $1.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $2.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 due to greater market penetration. Other international regions, including Asia-Pacific and Latin America, contributed 2% of total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal year 1997 compared to 1% for the second quarter of fiscal year 1998. Revenue derived from the IBM AS/400 platform represented 96% of total revenue while revenue derived from the Windows NT platform represented 4% for the second quarter ended March 31, 1998. Software license fee revenue increased 57%, from $5.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $8.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The growth was due primarily to continued acceptance of the Company's products enhanced by increased demand of businesses requiring application software solutions that will be functionally operative with the year 2000. For the second quarter of fiscal year 1998, software license fee revenue derived from Windows NT products was $0.5 million. All other software license fee revenue was derived from IBM AS/400 hardware platform transactions. Service revenue increased 22%, from $14.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $17.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the installed base of customers resulting in an increase in both maintenance and consulting services revenue. Also contributing to the increase in consulting services revenue was an increase in larger consulting service engagements as well as increased service offerings. The table below summarizes the composition and growth in the Company's service revenue. THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, --------------------------------- (in thousands) % INCREASE 1997 1998 97 TO 98 ------- ------- ---------- Maintenance fee revenue $ 8,378 $ 9,329 11% Consulting services revenue 5,773 7,911 37 ------- ------- Total service revenue $14,151 $17,240 22% ======= ======= COST OF SOFTWARE LICENSE FEES. Cost of software license fees consists primarily of royalties on the sales of third party products, amortization expense related to capitalized software development costs and the cost of product media, manuals and shipping. Cost of software license fees increased 47%, from $1.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $1.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. Cost of software license fees as a percentage of software license fee revenue decreased from 18% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to 17% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The increase in the dollar amount is attributed to an increase in royalties of third party product software sales offset in part by a decrease in amortization of capitalized software development costs. COST OF SERVICES. Cost of services consists of costs to provide product and technical support, consulting services and training services to licensees of Infinium Software products. Cost of services increased 44%, from $5.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $7.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. Cost of services as a percentage of service revenue increased from 39% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to 46% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The increase in the cost of services as a percentage of service revenue is attributed to the relative increase in the amount of consulting services versus maintenance at a lower gross margin. The increase in dollar amount of such costs resulted primarily from increased staffing in the consulting and support organizations in response to increased demand for consulting services, a continued growth in the customer base and an increase in third party contractors. 10 11 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses consist primarily of engineering personnel and third party contractor costs reduced by capitalized software development costs and, when applicable, research funding. Research and development expenses increased 11% from $4.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $4.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The increase in research and development expenses was due primarily to NT platform development initiatives during the period. In addition to traditional AS/400 platform development efforts, the Company continues to invest in the development of its human resource management product line designed exclusively for the Microsoft NT server market. The Company also continues to invest in the enhancement of its Microsoft NT server financial management applications. The Company capitalized $0.8 million of software development costs and offset research and development costs $0.1million due to research funding for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to $0.9 million of capitalized software development costs and $30,000 of research funding for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. SALES AND MARKETING. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, travel, promotional expenses, facilities, and computers and communications costs for direct sales offices. Sales and marketing expenses increased 25% from $6.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $8.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The increase was attributable to increased staffing in the direct sales force and additional marketing activities in connection with the launch of the NT products, as well as an increase in commission expense associated with higher revenue. Sales and marketing expense as a percentage of total revenue was 34% and 33% for the second quarter of fiscal year 1997 and fiscal year 1998, respectively. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries of executive, administrative, financial and legal personnel, as well as provisions for doubtful accounts, insurance, investor relations and outside professional fees. General and administrative expenses increased 15% from $1.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $2.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. General and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenue were 9% and 8% for the second quarter of fiscal year 1997 and fiscal year 1998, respectively. The increase in dollar amount was primarily due to incremental costs associated with the Time acquisition. WRITE-OFF OF IN-PROCESS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACQUIRED. As a result of the acquisition of Time (Open System) Ltd. in January 1997, the Company recorded a one-time charge to operations of $6.8 million for the write-off of in-process research and development acquired in the second quarter of fiscal year 1997. PROVISION (BENEFIT) FOR INCOME TAXES. The provision (benefit) for federal, state and foreign income taxes was ($2.0) million on an effective income tax rate of 35% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to $0.7 million on an effective income tax rate of 32% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The decrease in the effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal year 1997 to the second quarter of fiscal year 1998 is primarily due to the implementation of worldwide income tax reduction strategies. SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 REVENUE. Total revenue increased 32%, from $38.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997 to $50.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. Software license fee revenue increased 51%, from $11.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997 to $16.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. The software license fee growth reflects a continued market acceptance of the products and increased demand of businesses requiring application software solutions for the year 2000 issues. Service revenue increased 25%, from $27.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997 to $33.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the installed base of customers resulting in an increase in both maintenance revenue and consulting service revenue. 11 12 The following table sets forth a comparative breakout of the components of service revenue. SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, -------------------------------- (IN THOUSANDS) % OF $ INCREASE 1997 1998 97 TO 98 ------ ------- -------- Maintenance fee revenue $16,532 $18,265 10% Consulting services revenue 10,565 15,491 47 ------- ------- Total service revenue $27,097 $33,756 25% ======= ======= COST OF SOFTWARE LICENSE FEES. Cost of software license fees increased 49%, from $2.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997 to $3.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. Cost of software license fees as a percentage of software license fee revenue decreased from 19% for the six months ended March 31, 1997 to 18% for the six months ended March 31, 1998. COST OF SERVICES. Cost of services increased 45%, from $10.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997 to $14.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. Cost of services as a percentage of service revenue increased from 38% for the six months ended March 31, 1997 to 44% for the six months ended March 31, 1998. The increase in both the dollar and as a percentage of service revenue resulted primarily from an increase in the use of third party consultants for delivery of consulting services into the customer base in response to continued growth and to the continued demand for consulting services. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses increased 11%, from $7.7 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997 to $8.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. The increase in research and development expense was due primarily to increased NT platform development initiatives during the current fiscal year. Capitalized software development costs and research funding totaled $1.9 million for each of the six months ended March 31, 1997 and 1998. SALES AND MARKETING. Sales and marketing expenses increased 28%, from $13.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997 to $16.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. The increase was attributable to increased staffing in the direct sales force and additional marketing activities in connection with the launch of the NT products, as well as an increase in commission expense associated with higher revenue. Sales and marketing expense as a percentage of total revenue were 34% and 33% for the first six months of fiscal year 1997 and fiscal year 1998, respectively. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses increased 26%, from $3.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997 to $4.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. The increase in dollar amount and as a percent of revenue related primarily to incremental costs associated with the Time acquisition. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue were 9% for each of the six months ended March 31, 1997 and 1998. WRITE-OFF OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACQUIRED. As a result of the acquisition of Time (Open System) Ltd. in January 1997, the Company recorded a one-time charge to operations of $6.8 million for the write-off of in-process research and development acquired in the second quarter of fiscal year 1997. PROVISION (BENEFIT) FOR INCOME TAXES. The provision (benefit) for federal, state and foreign income taxes was ($1.5) million and $1.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1998, respectively. The effective tax rates were 35% for the six months ended March 31, 1997 and 32.0% for the six months ended March 31, 1998. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of March 31, 1998, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $52.8 million. During the first six months of fiscal year 1998, the Company generated $4.4 million of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of which $7.9 million was provided by operating and financing activities while $1.9 million was used to fund software development and $1.5 million to purchase 12 13 computers and equipment. The Company also used $0.4 million to repurchase common shares under a stock repurchase program. Days sales outstanding ("DSO") remained constant at 64 days at September 30, 1997 and March 31, 1998. The Company calculates DSO by dividing the ending accounts receivable balance, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, by the annualized revenue for the quarter, multiplied by 360. The Company believes that this method of deriving DSO is indicative of actual results due to the cyclical nature of software license and service transactions, which are often consummated nearer the end of the quarter, as well as the fluctuation of transactions from one quarter to the next. Deferred revenue increased $1.4 million, from $32.0 million at September 30, 1997 to $33.4 million at March 31, 1998. The increase in deferred revenue was primarily due to an increase in deferred maintenance revenue as a result of continued growth in the customer base. Deferred software license fees and consulting services remained relatively consistent at March 31, 1998 compared to September 30, 1997. On February 9, 1998, the Company announced that it would be initiating a stock repurchase program of up to $6.0 million of common stock effective immediately. The Company expects to use the repurchased stock to meet requirements of its employee stock option and stock purchase plans. No minimum number or value of shares to be repurchased has been fixed nor has a time limit as to the duration of the program been established. The Company is currently contemplating expanding its offering of complementary products and technology via third party software relationships and/or acquisition. In March 1998, the Company announced a strategic partnership with Cambridge Technologies Partners to develop a new suite of materials management applications for the Company which will complement existing financial and human resources management applications for the Microsoft Windows NT environment. Consummation of such agreements may result in the use of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities for prepaid royalties, development funding, and acquisition. In addition, although there are no current agreements with respect to additional material acquisitions of complementary businesses, such transactions could, if they were to occur, require additional sources of financing. The Company believes that cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities on hand and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund its operations at least through fiscal 1998. While operating activities may provide cash in certain periods, to the extent the Company experiences growth in the future, the Company anticipates that its operating and investing activities may use cash, and consequently, such growth may require the Company to obtain additional sources of financing. FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE PERFORMANCE The Company's quarterly revenue and operating results have varied significantly in the past and are likely to vary substantially from quarter to quarter in the future. Such fluctuations may result in volatility in the price of the Company's common stock. Quarterly revenue and operating results may fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, including the Company's lengthy sales cycle, the proportion of revenue attributable to license fees versus service revenue, changes in the level of operating expenses, demand for the Company's products, the introduction of new products and product enhancements by the Company or its competitors, changes in customer budgets, competitive conditions in the industry and general economic conditions. Further, the purchase of the Company's products often involves a significant commitment of capital by its customers with the attendant delays frequently associated with large capital expenditures and authorization procedures within an organization. For these and other reasons, the sales cycles for the Company's products are typically lengthy and subject to a number of significant risks over which the Company has little or no control. The Company historically has operated with little software license backlog because its software products are generally shipped as orders are received. The Company has often recognized a substantial portion of its revenue in the last month of the quarter and often in the last week of that month. As a result, license fees in any quarter are substantially dependent on orders booked and shipped in the last month or last week of that quarter. Accordingly, a small variation in the timing of recognition of revenue for specific transactions is likely to adversely and disproportionately affect the 13 14 Company's operating results for a quarter because the Company establishes its expenditure levels on the basis of its expected future revenue and only a small portion of the Company's expenses vary with its revenue. Accordingly, the Company believes that period to period comparisons of results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as indicative of future performance. Although the Company has been profitable in recent quarterly periods, there can be no assurance that the Company will remain profitable on a quarterly basis, if at all. The Company's business has experienced and is expected to continue to experience significant seasonality. In recent years, the Company has had greater demand for its products in its fourth fiscal quarter and has experienced lower revenue in its succeeding first and second fiscal quarters. The fluctuations are caused primarily by customer purchasing patterns and the Company's sales recognition programs which reward and recognize sales personnel on the basis of achievement of annual performance quotas. Due to the foregoing factors and the factors set forth under "Results of Operations" above, it is likely that in some future quarter the Company's operating results will be below the expectations of the Company and public market analysts and investors. In such event, the price of the Company's common stock would likely be materially adversely affected. The business applications software market is characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions, evolving industry standards and changes in customer demands. The introduction of products embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards can render existing products obsolete and unmarketable. The Company's future success will depend in part on its ability to enhance products and services and to develop and introduce new products and services to meet changing customer requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in developing and marketing product enhancements or new products that respond to technological change or evolving industry standards, that the Company will not experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction and marketing of these products and enhancements, or that any new products and product enhancements it may introduce will achieve market acceptance. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company will not encounter product development delays in the future or that, despite testing by the Company, errors will not be found in new products or product enhancements after commencement of commercial shipments, resulting in loss of market share, delay in market acceptance, or warranty claims which could have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. As the Company's primary current source of revenue comes from customers using IBM mid-range computers, future revenue from licenses of present products and sales of services and recurring maintenance revenue are therefore dependent on continued widespread use of the AS/400 and the continued support of such computers by IBM. In addition, because the Company's current AS/400 product line requires the use of IBM's OS/400 operating system, the Company may be required to adapt its products to any changes made in such operating system in the future. The Company's inability to adapt to future changes in the OS/400 operating system, or delays in doing so, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. Although the Company has recently introduced and is continuing to develop software applications to operate on the Microsoft Windows NT operating system as well as to operate over the Internet and within corporate intranets, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in marketing and developing these new products. The Company's development and implementation of versions of its business software applications to run on Microsoft Windows NT servers involves more intense competition from a larger number of competitors. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in developing additional products for NT and marketing these products or will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors. The business applications software market is highly competitive and rapidly changing. A number of companies offer products similar to the Company's products and target the same customers as the Company. The Company believes its ability to compete depends upon many factors within and outside its control, including the timely development and introduction of new products and product enhancements, product functionality, performance, price, reliability, customer service and support, sales and marketing 14 15 efforts and product distribution. The Company believes that competition in its industry is undergoing rapid change and that the barriers to competition between market segments that have previously existed are decreasing. Due to the relatively low barriers to entry in the software market, the Company expects additional competition from other established and emerging companies as the client/server business applications software market continues to develop and expand. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced gross margins and loss of market share, any of which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors or that competitive pressures will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. Revenue from customers outside North America represented 8.7%, 10.6% and 11.4% of the Company's total revenue in fiscal 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The Company believes that its revenue and future operating results will depend, in part, on its ability to increase sales in international markets. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain or increase its current level of international revenue. An important part of the Company's strategy is to expand its indirect distribution channels in international markets. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract and retain international distributors and resellers that will be able to market the Company's products effectively and will be qualified to provide timely and cost-effective customer support and service. The inability to attract and retain important resellers could materially and adversely affect the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. Other risks inherent in the Company's international business activities generally include unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, tariffs and other trade barriers, costs and difficulties of localizing products for foreign countries, lack of acceptance of localized products in foreign countries, longer accounts receivable payments cycles, difficulties in managing international operations, potentially adverse tax consequences including restrictions on the repatriation of earnings, the burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws and economic instability. There can be no assurance that such factors would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's future international revenue and, consequently, on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. 15 16 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Items 1 - 5.
