Note B -- Subsequent Events None -6- Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview The Company was founded in April 1983 to develop, market and support customer management software solutions for financial services organizations. Product development began immediately and by the end of the year the Company had secured its first customer. The Company has been profitable in each fiscal quarter since the first quarter of 1985. The Company's revenue is derived from two sources: software license fees and services revenue. License fees, which have historically represented the majority of the Company's total revenue, are generally payable on a monthly basis under license agreements which typically have a five-year term and are subject to renewal at the customer's option for an additional fixed period. Such license agreements are generally non-cancellable, although some may be terminated by the licensee for a fee prior to the expiration of the initial term but after a minimum specified period. The Company's licenses generally provide for annual license fee increases (the "inflation adjustments") based on recognized inflation indexes (sometimes subject to maximums). The Company believes that both it and its customers derive substantial benefits from the recurring fee model because it encourages the Company to be responsive to customer needs and provides the Company with additional revenue opportunities through license renewals. License revenue is recognized upon product acceptance. In the case of license renewals, revenue is recognized upon execution of the renewal agreement or if, as is generally the case, renewal is automatic unless the customer gives notice of termination, at the expiration of the period during which the customer has the right to terminate. The inflation adjustments are recognized ratably over the months to which they apply. In accordance with Statement of Position No. 91-1 issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the amount of software license revenue recognized upon product acceptance or license renewal is equal to the present value of the payments due during the minimum initial or renewal term, as the case may be, plus the present value of any early termination fee. In 1993, 1994 and 1995 and the three months ended March 31, 1996, the discount rate for purposes of the present value calculation was 7%; for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and September 30, 1996, such discount rate was 6.75%. Commencing with the three months ended March 31, 1996, the Company has established and intends to continue to establish the discount rate quarterly based on the Company's then current marginal borrowing rate, reduced, with respect to licenses which provide for inflation adjustments, by 1.5%, reflecting the Company's estimate of the benefit of future inflation adjustments during the minimum license term. The imputed interest portion of the license fees, which is reported as license interest income in the Company's consolidated statements of income, is recognized over the minimum initial or the renewal term, as the case may be. To date, a substantial majority of the Company's software licenses have been renewed upon expiration. License renewals accounted for 32%, 26% and 28% of total revenue in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively. The fact that a significant portion of the Company's revenue is derived from the renewal of license agreements with fixed expiration dates assists the Company in anticipating future revenue. The Company's services revenue is comprised of fees for implementation, consulting, maintenance and training services. All software license customers are required to enter into a maintenance contract requiring the customer to pay a monthly maintenance fee over the term of the related license agreement equal to approximately 18% of the license fee. Maintenance fees are recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance agreement. The Company's software license agreements typically require the Company to provide a specified level of implementation services for a fixed fee, typically with additional implementation services available at an hourly rate. Implementation fees are payable upon the achievement of specified milestones. The Company generally recognizes implementation as well as consulting and training fees as the services are provided. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company has capitalized certain software development costs which it has typically amortized over two years. No such costs, however, were capitalized in 1995 or in the nine months ended September 30, 1996. At September 30, 1996, the Company carried $123,000 of capitalized software development costs. These costs will be fully amortized by the end of 1996. As a result, the Company expects that its cost of software license revenue will be lower in 1997 than in 1996. The Company's export revenue has fluctuated considerably in the past due to the fact that such revenue has been largely attributable to a small number of product acceptances during a given period. The Company's export revenue increased from $1.0 million in 1993 to $3.9 million in 1994 due primarily to product acceptance by a single customer in Ireland in 1994, the year in which the Company organized its subsidiary in the United Kingdom. Export revenue declined to $2.3 million in 1995 due to the lack of large product acceptances during the year. Most of the Company's contracts are denominated in U.S. dollars, although several are denominated in other currencies, primarily British pounds sterling. The Company expects that in the future more of its contracts will be denominated in foreign currencies. The Company has not experienced any significant foreign exchange gains or losses, and the Company does not expect that foreign currency fluctuations will have a significant effect on either its revenue or costs in the near term. Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 1995 Revenue Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 (the "1996 Period") increased 46.0% to $21.0 million from $14.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 (the "1995 Period"). The increase was primarily due to an increase in software license revenue. Software license revenue for the 1996 Period increased 53.3% to $12.9 million from $8.4 million for the 1995 Period. The increase in software license revenue was primarily attributable to software license acceptances by new customers, software license agreement renewals, expanded software usage by existing customers existing customers, the licensing of standard product templates and inflation-based increases in monthly license fees. Services revenue for the 1996 Period increased 35.7% to $8.1 million from $5.9 million for the 1995 Period. The increase in services revenue was primarily attributable to increased demand for consulting and implementation services, and to a lesser extent, increased maintenance revenue from a larger installed product base. Cost of Revenue Cost of software license consists of amortization expense related to capitalized software development costs, royalty payments to third party software vendors and costs of product media, duplication and packaging. Cost of software license for the 1996 Period decreased 30.3% to $354,000 from $508,000 for the 1995 Period, and decreased as a percentage of total revenue from 3.5% for the 1995 Period to 1.7% for the 1996 Period. As a percentage of software license revenue, cost of software license decreased from 6.0% for the 1995 Period to 2.7% for the 1996 Period. Such decreases were due to decreased amortization expense related to capitalized software development costs. Cost of services consists primarily of the costs of providing implementation, consulting, maintenance and training services. Cost of services for the 1996 Period increased 17.6% to $5.0 million from $4.3 million for the 1995 Period mainly due to increased staffing in the Company's Reengineering and Client Services group in the United Kingdom and in the Company's domestic regional offices to meet growing client commitments. Cost of services as a percentage of total revenue declined from 29.7% for the 1995 Period to 23.9% for the 1996 Period, and declined as a percentage of services revenue from 71.7% for the 1995 Period to 62.1% for the 1996 Period, in both cases due to the growth in the Company's total revenue and increased utilization of service personnel. Operating Expenses Research and development expenses consist primarily of the cost of personnel and equipment needed to conduct the Company's research and development efforts. Research and development expenses for the 1996 Period increased 18.9% to $5.9 million from $4.9 million for the 1995 Period. The increase in research and development expenses was due to the hiring of additional development personnel. As a percentage of total revenue, research and development expenses declined from 34.5% for the 1995 Period to 28.1% for the 1996 Period reflecting the Company's strategy of leveraging existing product functionality by shifting its historical focus on research and development to sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses for the 1996 Period increased 52.2% to $3.9 million from $2.5 million for the 1995 Period. As a percentage of total revenue, sales and marketing expenses increased from 17.7% for the 1995 Period to 18.5% for the 1996 Period. Such increases were attributable to the hiring of additional direct sales and marketing personnel, increased sales commission payments attributable to higher sales, and increased investment in marketing support activities and materials. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of the salaries of the Company's executive, administrative and financial personnel, and associated expenses. General and administrative expenses for the 1996 Period increased 22.2% to $1.3 million from $1.1 million for the 1995 Period due to increased investment in the infrastructure needed to support the Company's growth. Such expenses declined as a percentage of total revenue from 7.6% for the 1995 Period to 6.3% for the 1996 Period due to the growth in the Company's total revenue. License Interest Income License interest income represents the portion of all license fees due under software license agreements which was not recognized upon product acceptance or license renewal. License interest income for the 1996 Period and the 1995 Period remained constant at $1.1 million. Provision for Income Taxes The provisions for federal, state and foreign taxes were $790,000 and $2.3 million for the 1995 Period and the 1996 Period, respectively. The effective tax rates were 38% for the 1995 Period and 39% for the 1996 Period. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the reduced availability of research and development tax credit carryforwards. At September 30, 1996, the Company had $420,000 in research and development tax credit carryforwards available to offset future federal taxable income. Liquidity and Capital Resources Since its inception, the Company has funded its operations primarily through cash flow from operations and bank borrowings. In addition, in July 1996, the Company issued and sold 2,700,000 shares of Common Stock in connection with its initial public offering. Net proceeds to the Company from such offering were approximately $29.4 million. At September 30, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $25.4 million and working capital of approximately $34.5 million. The Company's approach of charging license fees payable in installments over the term of its licenses has historically deferred the receipt of cash and limited the availability of working capital. Net cash provided by operating activities for the years ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995 was $1.6 million, $1.5 million and $830,000, respectively. Such amounts were used to support the Company's working capital requirements. During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, net cash used by operating activities was $1.8 million, primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable. The Company used $890,000, $1.1 million, $1.4 million and $1.1 million of net cash during 1993, 1994, 1995, and the nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively, to purchase property and equipment, primarily computer hardware and software, to support the Company's growing employee base and new regional office and training facilities. The Company's capital commitments consist primarily of operating leases for office space and equipment. At December 31, 1995, the Company's commitments under noncancellable operating leases for office space and equipment with terms in excess of one year totalled $1.0 million, $1.1 million and $1.1 million for 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively. The Company's total payments under such leases was $800,000, $860,000 and $1.1 million for 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively. See Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company has a $5.0 million revolving credit line, which is unsecured and expires on June 30, 1997. At September 30, 1996, the Company had no borrowings under its revolving credit line. The Company's credit agreement prohibits the payment of dividends, has profitability requirements and requires maintenance of specified levels of tangible net worth and certain financial ratios. See Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In 1993, the Company recorded bad debt expense in the amount of $326,000 as a result of certain specifically identified accounts receivable relating primarily to services rendered by the Company. The Company recorded no bad debt expense in 1994. In 1995, the Company recorded bad debt expense in the amount of $793,000 as a result of indications in the fourth quarter of the year that certain receivables relating primarily to services rendered by the Company would not be collected in full. The receivables with respect to which bad debt expense was recorded in 1993 and 1995 related primarily to maintenance and installation services provided by the Company. At the time such services were rendered (and the resulting revenue was recognized) there was no significant uncertainty regarding the acceptance thereof and the collectibility of the related receivables was probable. The Company believes that the net proceeds from this offering and its initial public offering together with cash generated by operations and availability under its bank credit facility will be sufficient to fund the Company's operations for at least one year following the completion of this offering. However, there can be no assurance that additional capital beyond the amounts currently forecasted by the Company will not be required or that any such required additional capital will be available on reasonable terms, if at all, at such time as required by the Company. Inflation Inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's operating results to date, nor does the Company expect it to have a significant impact in the future due to the fact that the Company's license and maintenance fees are typically subject to annual increases based on recognized inflation indexes. Forward Looking Statements To the extent that this report contains "forward looking statements," the registrant cautions that actual financial, market, and operating results may vary materially and adversely from those predicted, and that the forward looking statements are subject to a wide range of risks and uncertainties. Further information regarding the various factors which could materially and adversely affect the registrant's results is described in its Prospectus dated July 18, 1996 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 19, 1996.
