NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to interim financial reporting pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for reporting on Form 10-Q. It is recommended that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes of I-many, Inc. (the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2008 as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary for the fair presentation of these interim financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009, or for any other period.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements and in its previous filings on Form 10-K, the Company has incurred recurring losses from operations, and as of March 31, 2009 the Company’s total liabilities exceeded its total assets by $7.5 million. Also, as indicated in Note 4 below, the Company’s common stock is at risk of being delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market, which would cause the Company’s $17 million of senior convertible notes to be in default. In the event the Company’s common stock is delisted and these notes are called, the Company does not have sufficient funds to pay off these notes. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As indicated in Note 8 below, the Company implemented a significant restructuring of its operations in the fourth quarter of 2008, after having previously instituted a cost reduction program which included a reduction in headcount and consulting costs in the second quarter of 2008. Although there is no assurance that such restructuring will be successful, Company management believes that these two cost reduction programs have reduced the company’s break-even revenue point to an achievable level. Also, as indicated in Note 10 below, the Company announced on April 29, 2009 that it had agreed to be acquired by LLR Partners, Inc., a private equity investment firm, subject to shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions. Under the terms of the announced merger agreement, the Company’s senior convertible notes would be paid off in full. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” and SOP 98-9, “Software Revenue Recognition, with Respect to Certain Arrangements.” Software license fees are recognized upon execution of a signed license agreement and delivery of the software to customers, provided there are no significant post-delivery obligations, the payment is fixed or determinable and collection is probable. In multiple-element arrangements, a portion of the total fee is allocated to the undelivered professional services, training and maintenance and support services based on the fair value of those elements, which is defined as the price charged when those elements are sold separately. The residual amount is then allocated to the software license fee. In cases where the Company

 

7


Table of Contents

agrees to deliver unspecified additional products in the future, the license fee is recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement beginning with the delivery of the first product. In cases where the Company agrees to deliver specified additional products or upgrades in the future, recognition of the entire license fee, including any related maintenance and support fees, is deferred until after the specified additional products or upgrades are delivered and made generally available to all customers. If an acceptance period is required, revenues are deferred until customer acceptance. In cases where collection is not deemed probable, the license fee is recognized as payments are received. In cases where significant production or customization is required prior to attaining technological feasibility of the software, license fees are recognized on a percentage-of-completion basis and are credited to research and development expenses as a funded development arrangement. After the software attains technological feasibility, recognizable license fees are reported as license revenue.

In 2007, the Company began to classify its reported net revenues into three revenue categories – Recurring, Services and License – after having previously reported revenues as either Product or Service. Recurring revenue consists of (i) fees generated from providing maintenance, support, and hosting services and (ii) subscription revenues. Services revenue is comprised of professional service and training fees and reimbursable out-of-pocket expenses. License revenue consists of non-recurring license fees generated from perpetual license agreements.

Current and prospective customers have the option of entering into a subscription agreement as an alternative to the Company’s standard perpetual license contract model. The standard subscription arrangement is presently a fixed fee agreement over three or more years, covering license fees, unspecified new product releases and maintenance and support, generally payable in equal quarterly or annual installments commencing upon execution of the agreement. Prior to 2006, more than half of the executed subscription arrangements included a provision allowing the agreement to convert free-of-charge to a perpetual license after the completion of the initial term plus any extensions, generally after five years, after which time the customer would have the option of paying for the continuation of maintenance and support. Beginning in 2006, the Company has generally discontinued including free-of-charge perpetual conversion provisions in new subscription arrangements. Also included in subscription revenues are license fees generated from perpetual license arrangements with rights to unspecified additional products, which are treated as subscription arrangements for accounting purposes. For subscription arrangements which include rights to specified products which are not yet generally available to customers, revenue recognition is deferred until all elements of the arrangement including any such specified products have been delivered. For all other subscription arrangements, the Company recognizes all revenue ratably over the term of the subscription agreement commencing upon delivery of the initial product. Subscription installment amounts that are not yet contractually billable to customers are not reflected in deferred revenues on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Maintenance and support fees are recognized ratably over the term of the service period, which is generally twelve months. When maintenance and support is included in the total license fee, a portion of the total fee is allocated to maintenance and support based upon the price paid by the customer when sold separately, generally as renewals in the second year.

Professional service revenues are recognized as the services are performed. If conditions for acceptance exist, professional service revenues are recognized upon customer acceptance. For fixed fee professional service contracts, anticipated losses are provided for in the period in which the loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Training revenues are recognized as the services are provided. Included in training revenues are registration fees received from participants in the Company’s annual off-site user training conferences.

Payments received from customers at the inception of a maintenance period are treated as deferred service revenues and recognized ratably over the maintenance period. Payments received from customers in advance of product shipment or revenue recognition are treated as deferred revenues and recognized when the product is shipped to the customer or when otherwise earned.

Table of Contents

During the third quarter of 2005, the Company became aware of certain defects in the then current version of one of its software products, which was first shipped to customers in the fourth quarter of 2004. These defects, which were not identified in pre-release product testing, affected the performance of the software for a portion of the Company’s customers depending on each customer’s particular implementation environment and its intended use of the software. Because certain concessions have been made to customers in connection with these defects, the Company had generally not recognized revenue from sales of this software product and related implementation services beginning in the third quarter of 2005, except in those cases in which it was determined that the customer was not likely to be affected by the known, unresolved software defects. During 2006, new versions of the software were released, but problems continued to occur with implementations at several customer sites. In 2007, the Company released new versions of the software which were designed to resolve known performance defects with minimal additional functionality. Also during 2007, the Company successfully completed implementations of the newest version of this software at multiple customer sites and made progress with other customer implementations, and accordingly has begun recognizing revenue from this software on a limited basis. However, the Company is continuing to defer all recurring, services and license revenue in connection with (i) implementations of this software program that are not yet complete, and (ii) any customers for which a concession is probable and an agreement formalizing a concession amount has not been executed. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company has reversed and deferred $1.1million and $875,000, respectively, of otherwise-recognizable product and service revenue, based in part on its estimate of the fair value of concessions to be made until the remaining defects are resolved, and partly on its determination that license fees were not fixed and determinable because of the possibility of future concessions.

Stock-based Compensation:

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) No. 123 (revised 2004) (“FAS 123(R)”), “Share-based Payment.” Under FAS 123(R), the Company measures and records the compensation cost of employee and director services received in exchange for stock option grants and other equity awards based on the grant-date fair value of the awards. The values of the portions of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest are recognized as expense over the requisite service periods. The Company accounts for stock options and awards granted to non-employees other than directors using the fair-value method.

Under the fair-value method, compensation associated with equity awards is determined based on the estimated fair value of the award itself, measured using either current market data or an established option pricing model. The measurement date for employee and director awards is generally the date of grant. The measurement date for awards granted to non-employees other than directors is generally the date that performance of certain services is complete.

The Company’s estimates of the fair value of stock option grants were made using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions and resulted in the following weighted average grant-date fair values of options granted during the three months ended March 31:

 

     2009     2008  

Risk-free interest rates

     1.75 %     2.15 %

   $ 0.29     $ 1.33

Table of Contents

The risk-free interest rate is derived quarterly from the published US Treasury yield curve, based on expected term, in effect as of the last several days of the quarter. The Company uses historical volatility of the Company’s common stock to estimate expected volatility. The expected term of options was derived from Company historical data, including, among other things, option exercises, forfeitures and cancellations.

The following table summarizes the components of stock-based compensation expense for the three month periods ended March 31:

 

(Amounts in thousands)

   2009    2008

Stock option grants issued subsequent to 2005

   $ 209    $ 415

Stock option grants issued prior to 2006

     9      32

Restricted stock grants to directors and employees

     176      61

Employee stock purchase plan

     —        13
             

Total stock-based compensation expense

   $ 394    $ 521
             

As of March 31, 2009, unamortized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to nonvested stock options and nonvested restricted shares granted under the various stock incentive plans, amounted to $1.5 million and $535,000, respectively. These costs are expected to be amortized over weighted average periods of 1.7 years and 0.7 years, respectively.

Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant. Stock options terminate 10 years after grant and vest over periods set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at the time of grant. These vesting periods have generally been for four years, on a ratable basis. Certain stock option awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control. Beginning in 2006, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has also granted stock options to senior executives of the Company that vest on the earlier of four or five years after grant or the date that specified operational milestones or stock prices for the Company’s common stock are attained. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized $-0- and $70,000, respectively, of accelerated stock-based compensation expense in connection with the attainment of such milestones.

The Company has two current stock incentive plans: (i) the 2001 Employee Stock Option Plan, which provides for grants in the form of non-qualified stock options, with not more than 25,000 shares to be issued in the aggregate to officers or directors of the Company, and (ii) the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, which is shareholder-approved and provides for the grant of incentive stock options and other equity awards to the Company’s employees, directors and consultants. The company also has an employee stock purchase plan that allows employees to purchase stock at a 15% discount to market prices subject to certain limitations. Participation is optional and enrollment periods are every six months. As of December 1, 2008, enrollments in the employee stock purchase plan had been suspended due to the depletion of shares authorized under the plan.

The following table summarizes total common shares available for future grants of stock options and other equity awards at March 31, 2009:

Fair Value Measurements:

In January 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157 (or SFAS 157), “Fair Value Measurements”. This pronouncement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS 157 discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow) and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost), which are each based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. SFAS 157 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to fair value measurement techniques into three broad levels:

 

Level 1:    Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

11


Table of Contents
Level 2:    Observable inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for similar or identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3:    Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The Company’s investment in overnight money market institutional funds, which amounted to $6.1 million at March 31, 2009, is included in cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying balance sheets and is classified as a Level 1 asset.

Acquired Intangible Assets and Goodwill:

Acquired intangible assets (excluding goodwill) are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, or on an interim basis if an event or circumstance occurs between annual tests indicating that the assets might be impaired. The impairment test consists of comparing the cash flows expected to be generated by the acquired intangible asset to its carrying amount. If the asset is considered to be impaired, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Acquired intangible assets with indefinite useful lives will not be amortized until their lives are determined to be definite.

Goodwill is tested for impairment using a two-step approach. The first step is to compare the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered impaired and the second step is not required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the second step of the impairment test measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any, by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is calculated in the same manner that goodwill is calculated in a business combination, whereby the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets), with the excess “purchase price” over the amounts assigned to assets and liabilities representing the implied fair value of goodwill. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually, or on an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would likely reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value.

Income Taxes:

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”) regarding “Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes,” which defines the threshold for recognizing the benefits of tax-return positions in the financial statements as “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the taxing authorities. FIN 48 also requires explicit disclosure requirements about a Company’s uncertainties related to their income tax position, including a detailed roll-forward of tax benefits taken that do not qualify for financial statement recognition. The Company adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007 and its adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company and its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. To date, the Internal Revenue Service and most of the relevant state taxing authorities have not conducted examinations of any

Table of Contents

of the Company’s U.S. and state income tax returns since the Company’s inception. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary based in the United Kingdom is subject to income taxes imposed by the United Kingdom.

The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. To date, such interest and penalty charges have not been material.

A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for temporary differences in the bases of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes and loss carry forwards based on enacted rates expected to be in effect when these temporary items are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided to the extent it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Product Indemnification:

The Company’s agreements with customers generally include certain provisions for indemnifying the customer against losses, expenses, and liabilities from damages that may be awarded against the customer in the event that our products are found to infringe upon a patent, copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right of a third party. The agreements generally seek to limit the scope of remedies for such indemnification obligations in a variety of industry-standard respects, including our right to replace an infringing product. To date, we have not had to reimburse any of our customers for any losses related to these indemnification provisions and no claims were outstanding as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. We do not expect that any significant impact on financial position or the results of operations will result from these indemnification provisions.

New Accounting Pronouncements:

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) (“SFAS 141(R)”), “Business Combinations” which replaces SFAS No. 141. SFAS 141(R) applies to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses, regardless of whether consideration is involved. Under SFAS 141(R), an acquirer will recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. Among its other provisions, SFAS 141(R) mandates that (i) acquisition-related costs, including any post-acquisition restructuring costs that the acquirer expected but was not obligated to incur, generally be expensed when incurred, (ii) contingent consideration be recognized and recorded at fair value at the acquisition date, with subsequent changes in fair value to be recognized in the income statement or as equity adjustments, and (iii) in-process research and development be capitalized as an indefinite-lived intangible asset until project completion, after which time its value would be amortized over the related product’s estimated useful life or expensed if there is no alternative future use. SFAS 141(R) has been adopted as of January 1, 2009.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This statement clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be measured at fair value and reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. Also, this Statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, in which any remaining noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary is measured at its fair value. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company has adopted SFAS 160 as of January 1, 2009 and its adoption had no material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In April 2008, the FASB released FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FAS 142-3”). The intent of FAS 142-3 is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS Statement 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS Statement No. 141 (revised 2007) and other U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. FAS 142-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company has adopted FAS 142-3 as of January 1, 2009 and it will be applied prospectively to any future business combinations.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP APB No. 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” (“APB 14-1”), which applies to convertible debt that includes a cash conversion feature. Under APB 14-1, the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments within the scope of this pronouncement shall be separately accounted for in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. APB 14-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Because the senior convertible notes issued by the Company (see Note 4 below) do not currently include a cash conversion feature, the Company believes that adoption of APB14-1 does not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In June 2008, the FASB ratified the Emerging Issue Task Force’s (“EITF”) final consensus on Issue 07-5, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“EITF 07-5”). EITF 07-5 provides technical guidance for determining the appropriate accounting treatment for certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features), specifically in connection with the evaluation of an instrument’s contingent exercise provisions, if any. EITF 07-5 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company has adopted EITF 07-5 as of January 1, 2009 and its adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In June 2008, the FASB released FSP EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities.” Under FSP EITF 03-6-1, unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) pursuant to the two-class method. FSP EITF 03-6-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and all prior-period EPS data presented are to be adjusted retrospectively (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings, and selected financial data) to conform with the provisions of FSP EITF 03-6-1. The Company has adopted FSP EITF 03-6-1 as of January 1, 2009 and its adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS

ClaimRight Business of Global HealthCare Exchange:

On February 20, 2008, the Company completed its purchase of the assets related to the ClaimRight data validation software business (“ClaimRight”) from Global Healthcare Exchange LLC and Global HealthCare Exchange, Inc. (collectively “GHX”) for $2.0 million, which consisted of $1.4 million in cash paid upon closing, assumed liabilities of $206,000, transaction costs of $181,000, and an additional $200,000 in cash consideration that was accrued in December 2008 based on the realization of certain predefined performance milestones. Effective

Table of Contents

February 20, 2009, the 12-month term for the accrual of contingent consideration had expired and no additional consideration can be earned by GHX. The ClaimRight business was located in Ambler, Pennsylvania and marketed software to pharmaceutical providers for the processing and validating of pharmaceutical claim submissions. This purchase provided the Company with an established customer base and technology that enhanced its product offering to its pharmaceutical manufacturing clients. The Company has consolidated the operations of ClaimRight beginning on the date of acquisition.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition (amounts in thousands):

 

Acquired intangible assets

   $ 300  

Equipment and notes receivable

     113  

In-process research and development

     760  

Goodwill

     849  
        

Total assets acquired

     2,022  

Less:

  

Deferred revenue

     (189 )

Other current liabilities

     (17 )
        

Net assets acquired

   $ 1,816  
        

The $300,000 of acquired intangible assets represents the fair value of the ClaimRight in-force customer relationships, which is being amortized over a four-year life. The entire value of acquired intangible assets, in-process research and development, and goodwill was assigned to the health and life sciences segment.

The portion of the purchase price allocated to in-process research and development, totaling $760,000, was expensed upon consummation of the ClaimRight acquisition. This allocation was attributable to one in-process research and development project, which consisted of the development of significant new features and functionality to an existing software product. The ClaimRight business had achieved significant technological milestones on the project as of the acquisition date, but the project had not reached technological feasibility. The estimated fair value of the acquired in-process research and development for this project was determined using the cost approach, due to the unavailability of reasonable estimates of future material cash flows in connection with this project. The Company was able to estimate the cost involved in recreating the technology using historical data, including cost and effort applied to the development of the technology prior to the acquisition date. Significant appraisal assumptions included historical data related to personnel effort, costs associated with those efforts, and any related external costs.

At the time of the acquisition, the in-process ClaimRight development project was approximately 80% to 90% complete. Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company discontinued work on this project prior to its completion and reassigned personnel to incorporate much of the functionality of this project into one of the Company’s competing software programs.

Edge Dynamics, Inc.

On May 5, 2008, the Company completed its acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Edge Dynamics, Inc. (“Edge Dynamics”), a privately-held developer of channel- and demand-management software based in Redwood City, California, for a purchase price of $500,000 plus the repayment and assumption of other obligations. The total merger consideration of approximately $5.1 million consisted of $500,000 in cash paid to the shareholders of Edge Dynamics, $1.7 million in cash paid to extinguish Edge Dynamics’ outstanding bank debt, the assumption of Edge Dynamics’ liabilities of $2.9 million, and transaction costs of approximately $290,000, less Edge Dynamics’ cash balance of $231,000.

Table of Contents

Edge Dynamics developed and marketed channel- and demand-management software to companies in the pharmaceutical industry. This purchase provided the Company with an established customer base and technology that the Company believes will enhance its product offering to its pharmaceutical manufacturing clients. The Company has consolidated the operations of Edge Dynamics beginning on the date of acquisition.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition (amounts in thousands):

 

Acquired intangible assets

   $ 2,300  

Accounts receivable

     1,092  

Other current assets

     78  

Equipment and other noncurrent assets

     440  

In-process research and development

     800  

Goodwill

     437  
        

Total assets acquired

     5,147  

Less:

  

Accrued expenses

     (1,892 )

Deferred revenue

     (776 )

Other current liabilities

     (192 )
        

Net assets acquired

   $ 2,287  
        

The $2.3 million of acquired intangible assets represents the fair values of the Edge Dynamics technology ($1.5 million) and in-force customer relationships ($800,000), which are each being amortized over a four-year life. The entire value of acquired intangible assets, in-process research and development, and goodwill was assigned to the health and life sciences segment.

The portion of the purchase price allocated to in-process research and development, totaling $800,000, was expensed upon consummation of the Edge Dynamics acquisition. This allocation was attributable to one in-process research and development project, which consisted of the development of significant new features and functionality to an existing software product. Edge Dynamics had achieved significant technological milestones on the project as of the acquisition date, but the project had not reached technological feasibility. The value of the purchased in-process research and development was computed using a discount rate of 30% on the projected incremental revenue stream of the product enhancements, net of anticipated costs and expenses. The 30% discount rate was derived based on the Company’s estimated weighted average cost of capital as adjusted to reflect the additional risk inherent in product development and the stage of development. The discounted cash flows were based on management’s forecast of future revenue, costs of revenue and operating expenses related to the products and technologies acquired from Edge Dynamics. The determined value was then adjusted to reflect only the value creation efforts of Edge Dynamics prior to the close of the acquisition. At the time of the acquisition, the project was approximately 75% complete. As of September 30, 2008, the Company had invested approximately $550,000 in the project following acquisition. The project’s development progressed, in all material respects, consistently with the assumptions that the Company had used for estimating its fair value and was completed in September 2008.

NOTE 4. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

On December 31, 2007, the Company completed a private placement of $17.0 million of senior convertible notes (“Notes”). The Notes bear interest at 6.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears, and will mature on December 31, 2012. The Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $3.8192 per share, subject to adjustment in the event of a merger or other change in control of the Company. Also, the Notes can be redeemed at par by the investors on December 31, 2010, or redeemed at par by the Company any time beginning on December 31, 2010. Net proceeds to the Company were approximately $15.8 million, after deducting commissions and other fees. The $1.2 million in debt issuance costs is being amortized into interest expense using the effective interest method over the three-year period leading up to the date at which the Notes are first redeemable by the investors. In connection with the Notes, the Company incurred interest expense of $373,000 and $364,000, respectively, during the three month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, such amounts including debt issuance cost amortization of $97,000 and $88,000, respectively. As discussed more fully below, the Notes would be in default, and the holders of the Notes could require the Company to redeem the Notes for their principal amount and accrued interest, if the Company’s common stock is delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market.

The Notes were issued in reliance upon exemptions from the registration provisions of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as amended, and Regulation D thereunder. The shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes have been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the registration became effective as of February 27, 2008.

Until all of the Notes have been converted, redeemed or otherwise satisfied in accordance with their terms, the Company is prohibited from redeeming or repurchasing any of its capital stock (except in connection with forfeitures of unvested restricted stock), or declaring or paying any cash dividend without the prior express written consent of the holders of Notes representing at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

On October 21, 2008, the Company received notice from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) that the market value of its listed securities had been below the required minimum $35 million for the previous ten consecutive business days, and that if the market value of the Company’s listed securities did not exceed $35 million for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time prior to November 20, 2008, the Company’s common stock would be subject to delisting unless the Company were to request a hearing before a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel. We requested a hearing and, on January 8, 2009, presented our plan to the Panel for regaining compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing. On March 20, 2009, the Company received notification from the Panel that it had determined to grant the Company’s request to remain listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, subject to the condition that, among other things, the Company evidence stockholders’ equity at or above $2.5 million on or before May 26, 2009. The Panel reserves the right to reconsider the terms of this exception under circumstances that make continued listing of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market unwarranted. While the Company is working to regain compliance, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance by the deadline established by the Panel.

The delisting of the Company’s common stock from the NASDAQ Capital Market is an event of default under the Company’s Notes. In the event of such a default, the holders of the Notes would be entitled to declare the entire principal amount and interest due and payable immediately. The Company currently does not have sufficient cash and short-term investments to repay the full principal amount of the Notes. As indicated in Note 10 below, the Company announced on April 29, 2009 that it had agreed to be acquired by LLR Partners, Inc., a private equity investment firm, subject to shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions.

Table of Contents

In connection with the acquisition, the holders of I-many’s senior convertible notes have agreed to allow the company to redeem their notes in full for cash at the closing. The holders of I-many’s senior convertible notes have also agreed not to accelerate the redemption of their notes if the Company’s common stock is de-listed from the NASDAQ Capital Market before the closing of the transaction. However, if the proposed merger agreement does not occur and if the Company is unable to obtain a waiver of a delisting default, the Company would be unable to repay the Notes without raising additional capital and its ability to continue as a going concern would be in significant doubt.

NOTE 5. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic net income (loss) per share was determined by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding common shares subject to repurchase or cancellation. The following table sets forth the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share (in thousands, except per share amounts, unaudited):

     2009    2008  

Diluted net income (loss) per share:

Dilutive net income (loss) per share

   $ 0.02    $ (0.10 )
               

For the three months ended March 31, 2008, diluted net loss per share was the same as basic net loss per share since the effect of any potentially dilutive securities was excluded, as they were anti-dilutive as a result of the Company’s net loss for that period. The total number of common equivalent shares excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was 2,423,406. Also excluded from the diluted loss per share calculations for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2009 were 4,451,200 shares issuable upon conversion of the senior convertible notes (see Note 4), as the effect of including these shares would be anti-dilutive.

NOTE 6. SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS

The Company had one customer which individually generated revenues comprising a significant percentage of total revenue, as follows:

 

     Three months ended

Customer A

   35 %   15 %

 

* was less than 10% of the Company’s total

NOTE 7. SEGMENT DISCLOSURE

The Company measures operating results as two reportable segments, each of which provide multiple products and services that allow manufacturers, purchasers and intermediaries to manage their complex contracts for the purchase and sale of goods. These segments are consistent with how management establishes strategic goals, allocates resources and evaluates performance. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that market to separate and distinct industry groups: (i) health and life sciences, which includes pharmaceutical manufacturers, and (ii) industry solutions, which comprises all other industries. The following tables reflect the results of the segments consistent with the Company’s management system.

Goodwill

     3,304       —         5,951      9,255  

For segment reporting purposes, unallocated amounts consist of goodwill with respect to the 2002 acquisition of Menerva Technologies, Inc. Interest revenue, interest expense, other significant non-cash items, income tax expense or benefit, and unusual items that are attributable to the segments do not have a significant effect on the financial results of the segments. In performing the annual goodwill impairment test, all goodwill is assigned to the reportable segments.

NOTE 8. RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

In December 2008, the Company implemented a significant restructuring of its operations in order to streamline operations and better align operating expenses levels with a conservative revenue forecast for 2009. As part of this downsizing, the Company eliminated 49 employee positions, moved its London office to a smaller facility, and incurred $641,000 in severance

Table of Contents

charges and $216,000 in lease loss costs. The net result of the workforce restructuring was a reduction in the Company’s headcount from 209 at November 30, 2008 to 164 at January 31, 2009. With respect to the London office move, the Company determined the fair value of the remaining liability (net of estimated sublease rentals) on its London office lease as of December 31, 2008.

In 2003 and 2004, the Company took several actions to reduce its operating expenses in order to better align its cost structure with projected revenues and to streamline its operations in advance of a planned (and subsequently terminated) sale of its health and life sciences operation. These actions included the closing of its office in Chicago, Illinois and the partial closing of its facility in London, England. With respect to the Chicago and London office closings, the Company had determined the fair value of the remaining liabilities of the unused space (net of estimated sublease rentals) for each lease as of the respective cease-use dates.

A rollforward of the Company’s accrued liability for restructuring and other charges is as follows:

the acquisition, the holders of I-many’s senior convertible notes have agreed to allow the Company to redeem their notes in full for cash at the closing. The holders of I-many’s senior convertible notes have also agreed not to accelerate the redemption of their notes if the Company’s common stock is de-listed from the NASDAQ Capital Market before the closing of the transaction. If the merger agreement is terminated under certain circumstances specified therein, (i) I-many will be required to pay LLR a termination fee of $1,350,000, and (ii) I-many or LLR, as the case may be, will be required to reimburse the other party for its expenses actually incurred relating to the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, up to a maximum of $500,000.

The transaction has been approved unanimously by the I-many board of directors and is subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of I-many’s stockholders. The merger agreement is expected to close during the third calendar quarter of 2009. See the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K and 8-K/A filed with the Commission on April 29, 2009 and April 30, 2009.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements due to various factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A, and elsewhere, in this report.

OVERVIEW

We provide software and related services that allow our clients to more effectively manage their contract-based, business-to-business relationships through the entirety of the contract management lifecycle. We operate our business in two segments: health and life sciences and industry solutions. The health and life sciences line of business markets and sells our products and services to companies in the life sciences industries, including pharmaceutical and medical product companies, wholesale distributors and managed care organizations. The industry solutions line of business targets all other industries.

Our primary products and services were originally developed to manage complex contract purchasing relationships in the healthcare industry. Our software is currently licensed by 19 of the 20 largest world-wide pharmaceutical manufacturers, ranked according to 2007 annual pharmaceutical company revenues. As the depth and breadth of our product suites have expanded, we have added companies in the industry solutions markets to our customer base.

We have generated revenues from both products and services. Recurring revenue, which consists of maintenance, support and hosting fees directly related to our licensed software products and product subscription revenues, accounted for 51.4% of net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2009 versus 66.8% of net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2008. Services revenue, which is comprised of professional service fees derived from consulting, installation, business analysis and training services related to our software, accounted for 29.4% of net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2009 versus 30.4% of net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2008. License revenue, which consists of non-recurring license fees generated from perpetual license agreements, accounted for 19.2% of net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2009 versus 2.8% of net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2008.

On December 31, 2007, we completed a private placement of $17.0 million of senior convertible notes, which bear interest at 6.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears, and will mature on December 31, 2012. The notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $3.8192 per share, or into merger consideration in the event of a merger or other change of control of the Company. Also, the notes can be redeemed at par by the investors on December 31, 2010, or redeemed at par by us at any time beginning on December 31, 2010. Net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the notes were approximately $15.8 million, after deducting commissions and other fees. We will be in default under these notes in the event that our common stock is delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market and we are unable to obtain a waiver from the holders of the notes. See “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A and note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements above.

On February 20, 2008, we completed our purchase of the assets related to the ClaimRight data validation software business from Global Healthcare Exchange LLC and Global HealthCare Exchange, Inc. for $2.0 million, which consisted of $1.4 million in cash paid upon closing,

Table of Contents

assumed liabilities of $206,000, transaction costs of $181,000, and an additional $200,000 in cash consideration that was paid in January 2009 based on the realization of certain defined performance milestones. The ClaimRight business was located in Ambler, Pennsylvania and marketed software to pharmaceutical providers for the processing and validating of pharmaceutical claim submissions. This purchase provided us with an established customer base and technology that we believe will enhance our product offering to our pharmaceutical manufacturing clients.

On May 5, 2008, we completed our acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Edge Dynamics, Inc., a privately-held developer of channel- and demand-management software based in Redwood City, California, for a purchase price of $500,000 plus the repayment and assumption of other obligations. The total merger consideration of approximately $5.1 million consisted of $500,000 in cash paid to the shareholders of Edge Dynamics, $1.7 million in cash paid to extinguish Edge Dynamics’ outstanding bank debt, the assumption of Edge Dynamics’ liabilities of approximately $2.9 million, and transaction costs of approximately $290,000, less Edge Dynamics’ cash balance of $231,000. The Edge Dynamics acquisition provided products and technology that we believe will enhance our product offerings to our customers in the health and life sciences segment.

In 2008, our sales were significantly lower than expected and relative to 2007 levels. We believe that general economic conditions affecting the health and life science industries, weak sales force execution, a relatively small and recent base of customers using our next generation products and competitive pressures were the primary causes behind this decrease. Meanwhile, our expenses had increased during the first six months of 2008, largely as a direct result of our acquisitions of the ClaimRight business and Edge Dynamics. In response to this deterioration in our sales results and our increased operating losses, we reduced our headcount by a total of 28 employees during the three-month period ended June 30, 2008, incurring $346,000 in estimated severance costs, and cut back on projected future hiring plans. In December 2008, we implemented a significant restructuring of our operations in order to streamline operations and better align operating expenses levels with a conservative revenue forecast for 2009. As part of this downsizing, we eliminated 49 employee positions, moved our London office to a smaller facility, and incurred $857,000 in severances and lease loss costs. Our total employee headcount has decreased from 199 at December 31, 2007 to 167 at December 31, 2008 and 166 at March 31, 2009.

On April 29, 2009, the Company announced that it had agreed to be acquired by LLR Partners, Inc., a private equity investment firm. Under the terms of the announced definitive merger agreement, our shareholders would receive approximately $0.43 per share in cash. In connection with the acquisition, the holders of our senior convertible notes have agreed to allow the Company to redeem their notes in full for cash at the closing. The holders of our senior convertible notes have also agreed not to accelerate the redemption of their notes if our common stock is de-listed from the NASDAQ Capital Market before the closing of the transaction. The transaction has been approved unanimously by our board of directors and is subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of our stockholders. The merger agreement is expected to close during the third calendar quarter of 2009.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Revenue Recognition

We generate revenues from licensing our software and providing professional services, training and maintenance and support services. Software license revenues are attributable to the

 

24


Table of Contents

addition of new customers and the expansion or renewal of existing customer relationships through licenses covering additional users, licenses of additional software products and license renewals.

We recognize software license fees upon execution of a signed license agreement and delivery of the software to customers, provided there are no significant post-delivery obligations, the payment is fixed or determinable and collection is probable. In multiple-element arrangements, we allocate a portion of the total fee to professional services, training and maintenance and support services based on the fair value of those elements, which is defined as the price charged when those elements are sold separately. The residual amount is then allocated to the software license fee. In cases where we agree to deliver unspecified additional products in the future, the license fee is recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement beginning with the delivery of the first product. In cases where we agree to deliver specified additional products or upgrades in the future, recognition of the entire license fee, including any related maintenance and support fees, is deferred until after the specified additional products or upgrades are delivered and made generally available to all customers. If an acceptance period is required, revenues are deferred until customer acceptance. In cases where collection is not deemed probable, we recognize the license fee as payments are received. In cases where significant production or customization is required prior to attaining technological feasibility of the software, license fees are recognized on a percentage-of-completion basis and are credited to research and development expenses as a funded development arrangement. After the software attains technological feasibility, recognizable license fees are reported as product revenue.

In 2007, we began to classify our reported net revenues into three revenue categories – Recurring, Services and License revenues – after having previously reported our revenues as being either Product or Service. Recurring revenue consists of (i) fees generated from the provision of maintenance, support, and hosting services and (ii) subscription revenues. Services revenue is now comprised of professional service and training fees and reimbursable out-of-pocket expenses. License revenue consists of non-recurring license fees generated from perpetual license agreements.

We offer current and prospective customers the option to enter into a subscription agreement as an alternative to our standard perpetual license contract model. We believe our subscription offering has expanded the market to customers that find regular subscription payments an easier and more flexible implementation of our software, and subscription arrangements have the potential to provide us with smoother and more predictable revenue growth. The standard subscription arrangement is presently a fixed fee agreement over three to five years, covering license fees, unspecified new product releases and maintenance and support, generally payable in equal quarterly or annual installments commencing upon execution of the agreement. Prior to 2006, more than half of the executed subscription arrangements included a provision allowing the agreement to convert free-of-charge to a perpetual license after the completion of the initial term plus any extensions, generally after five years, after which time the customer would have the option of paying for the continuation of maintenance and support. Beginning in 2006, we have generally discontinued including free-of-charge perpetual conversion provisions in new subscription arrangements. Also included in subscription revenues are license fees generated from perpetual license arrangements with rights to unspecified additional products, which are treated as subscription arrangements for accounting purposes. For subscription arrangements which include rights to specified products which are not yet generally available to customers, revenue recognition is deferred until all elements of the arrangement including any such specified products have been delivered. For all other subscription arrangements, we recognize all revenue ratably over the term of the subscription agreement commencing upon delivery of the initial product. Subscription installment amounts that are not yet contractually billable to customers are not reflected in deferred revenues on our consolidated balance sheet.

Table of Contents

Maintenance and customer support fees are recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance contract, which is generally twelve months. When maintenance and support is included in the total license fee, we allocate a portion of the total fee to maintenance and support based upon the price paid by the customer when sold separately, generally as renewals in the second year.

Professional service revenues are recognized as the services are performed. If conditions for acceptance exist, professional service revenues are recognized upon customer acceptance. For fixed fee professional service contracts, we provide for anticipated losses in the period in which the loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Training revenues are recognized as the services are provided. Included in training revenues are registration fees received from participants in our annual off-site user training conferences.

Payments received from customers at the inception of a maintenance period are treated as deferred service revenues and recognized ratably over the maintenance period. Payments received from customers in advance of product shipment or revenue recognition are treated as deferred product revenues and recognized when the product is shipped to the customer or when otherwise earned.

Subscription arrangements, including a small number of perpetual license arrangements with rights to unspecified additional products that are treated as subscriptions for accounting purposes, represent a significant proportion of our new licenses. In 2008, six of the 14 license contracts (minimum value of $50,000) that were sold are being treated as subscription arrangements for accounting purposes. And in the three months ended March 31, 2009, one of the three license deals (minimum value of $50,000) sold was a subscription. During the three months ended March, 31, 2009 and 2008, we recognized $1.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively, in recurring revenue related to such agreements. For 2009, we anticipate that subscription arrangements will continue to represent a significant proportion of new license sales.

During the third quarter of 2005, we became aware of certain defects in the then-current version of one of our software products, which was first shipped to customers in the fourth quarter of 2004. These defects, which were not identified in pre-release product testing, affected the performance of the software for a portion of our customers depending on each customer’s particular implementation environment and its intended use of the software. Because certain concessions had been made to customers in connection with these defects, we have generally not recognized revenue from sales of this software product and related implementation services since the beginning of the third quarter of 2005, except in those cases in which it was determined that the customer was not likely to be affected by the known, unresolved software defects. During 2006, new versions of the software were released, but we continued to experience problems with implementations at several customer sites. In 2007, we released new versions of the software which were designed to resolve known performance defects with minimal additional functionality. Also in 2007, we successfully completed implementations of the newest version of this software at multiple customer sites and made progress with other customer implementations, and accordingly have begun recognizing revenue from this software on a limited basis. However, we are continuing to defer all recurring, services and license revenue in connection with (i) implementations of this software program that are not yet complete, and (ii) any customers for which a concession is probable and an agreement formalizing a concession amount has not been executed. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, we have reversed and deferred $1.1 million and $875,000, respectively, of otherwise-recognizable product and service revenue, based in part on our estimate of the fair value of concessions to be made until the remaining defect is resolved, and partly on our determination that license fees were not fixed and determinable because of the possibility of future concessions.

Stock-based Compensation:

On January 1, 2006, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) No. 123 (revised 2004) (“FAS 123(R)”), “Share-based Payment.” Under FAS 123(R), we measure and record the compensation cost of employee and director services received in exchange for stock option grants and other equity awards based on the grant-date fair value of the awards. The values of the portions of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest are recognized as expense over the requisite service periods. We account for stock options and awards granted to non-employees other than directors using the fair-value method.

Under the fair-value method, compensation associated with equity awards is determined based on the estimated fair value of the award itself, measured using either current market data or an established option pricing model. The measurement date for employee and director awards is generally the date of grant. The measurement date for awards granted to non-employees other than directors is generally the date that performance of certain services is complete.

Our estimates of the fair value of stock option grants were made using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions and resulted in the following weighted average grant-date fair values of options granted during the three months ended March 31:

 

     2008     2008  

Risk-free interest rates

     1.75 %     2.15 %

Dividend yield

     —         —    

Expected volatility

     100 %     55 %

Expected term (in years)

     4.57       3.75-6.00  

Weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted during the period

   $ 0.29     $ 1.33  

The risk-free interest rate is derived quarterly from the published US Treasury yield curve, based on expected term, in effect as of the last several days of the quarter. We use historical volatility of the Company’s common stock to estimate expected volatility. The expected term of options was derived from Company historical data, including, among other things, option exercises, forfeitures and cancellations.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We record provisions for doubtful accounts based on a detailed assessment of our accounts receivable and related credit risks. In estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts, management considers the age of the accounts receivables, our historical write-off experience, the credit worthiness of customers and the economic conditions of the customers’ industries and general economic conditions, among other factors. Should any of these factors change, the estimates made by management will also change, which could affect the level of our future provision for doubtful accounts. If the assumptions we used to calculate these estimates do not properly reflect future collections, there could be an impact on future reported results of operations. The provisions for doubtful accounts are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

Acquired Intangible Assets

Acquired intangible assets (excluding goodwill) are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, or on an interim basis if an event or circumstance occurs between annual tests indicating that the assets might be impaired. The impairment test will consist of comparing the cash flows expected to be generated by the acquired intangible asset to its carrying amount. If the asset is considered to be impaired, an impairment loss will be recognized in an amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.

 

27


Table of Contents

Goodwill

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reportable segment level using a two-step approach. The first step is to compare the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered impaired and the second step is not required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the second step of the impairment test measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any, by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is calculated in the same manner that goodwill is calculated in a business combination, whereby the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets), with the excess “purchase price” over the amounts assigned to assets and liabilities representing the implied fair value of goodwill. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually, or on an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would likely reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. If the assumptions we used to estimate fair value of goodwill change, there could be an impact on future reported results of operations.

Deferred Tax Assets

A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for temporary differences in the bases of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes and loss carry forwards based on enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when these temporary items are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided to the extent it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Product Indemnification

Our agreements with customers generally include certain provisions obligating us to indemnify the customer against losses, expenses, and liabilities from damages that may be awarded against the customer in the event that our products are found to infringe upon a patent, copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right of a third party. The agreements generally seek to limit the scope of remedies for such indemnification obligations in a variety of industry-standard respects, including our right to replace an infringing product. To date, we have not had to reimburse any of our customers for any losses related to these indemnification provisions and no claims were outstanding as of March 31, 2009. We do not expect that any significant impact on financial position or the results of operations will result from these indemnification provisions.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred. Based on our product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Costs incurred by the Company between completion of the working model and the point at which the product is ready for general release have not been material. As such, all software development costs incurred to date have been expensed as incurred.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009 AND 2008

NET REVENUES

Net revenues increased by $2.6 million, or 34.7%, to $9.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from $7.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. License revenue increased by $1.7 million, or 831%, to $1.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from $205,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, due to a significant increase in license bookings as more fully discussed below. Service revenue increased by $669,000, or 29.9%, to $2.9 million versus $2.2 million in the year earlier period as demand for implementation services increased significantly in our health and life sciences segment.

As indicated in the table below, the gross value of license contracts sold during the first quarter of 2009 increased by $2.6 million, or 506%, to $3.1 million versus $518,000 sold during the first quarter of 2008, due to a significant increase in the average selling price, from $89,000 to $837,000.

The above financial information is provided as additional information and is not in accordance with or an alternative to generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. We believe its inclusion can enhance an overall understanding of our past operational performance and also our prospects for the future. This reconciliation of license revenues is made with the intent of providing a more complete understanding of our sales performance, as opposed to GAAP revenue results, which do not include the impact of newly-executed subscription agreements and other deferred license arrangements that are material to the ongoing performance of our business. This information quantifies the various components comprising current license revenue, which in each period consists of the total value of licenses sold in current periods, plus license revenue recorded in the current period from contracts sold in prior periods, less the value of license contracts sold in the current period that is not yet recognizable. Included in the gross value of license contracts sold amounts are license and non-cancelable subscription fee obligations that are not currently recognizable as product revenue upon execution of the license agreement because all the requirements for revenue recognition (see “Critical Accounting Policies – Revenue Recognition” in this Item 2) are not present, such as the presence of extended payment terms, future software deliverables, or customer acceptance provisions. The gross value of license contracts sold also

Table of Contents

includes amounts that are not yet contractually billable to customers, and any such unbilled amounts are not reflected in deferred revenues on our consolidated balance sheet. Management uses this information as a basis for planning and forecasting core business activity in future periods and believes it is useful in understanding our results of operations. Also, payouts under our sales compensation and executive bonus plans are based in large part on the gross values of license contracts sold in each period. The presentation of this additional revenue information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenues reported in accordance with GAAP in the United States. There can be no assurance that the full value of licenses sold and deferred to future reporting periods will ultimately be recognized as total net revenues.

Revenues derived from our health and life sciences segment increased by $2.8 million, or 48.6%, to $8.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from $5.9 million in the year earlier period. This increase was primarily attributable to increases of (i) of $1.7 million, or 1,508%, in license revenue and (ii) $916,000, or 48.1%, in professional services revenue. As indicated in the above table, the gross values of license contracts sold in this segment during the quarter ended March 31, 2009 increased by $2.3 million, or 786%, versus the same quarter in 2008 due to a significant increase in the average selling price. This increase in license bookings notwithstanding, management believes that viability concerns about the Company’s prospects and continued weakness in economic conditions and ongoing consolidation in the life sciences market may negatively affect demand for our products during the next several months.

Revenues derived from our industry solutions segment decreased by $288,000, or 19.1%, to $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 versus $1.5 million in the same quarter in 2008. This decrease was principally attributable to a decrease in professional services revenue of $246,000, or 72.9%, compared to the year earlier period. Revenue in this segment has been trending lower over the past several quarters due to decreasing licensing activity, which had largely been a result of both the Company’s renewed emphasis on life sciences markets and recent product defect issues in one of our key software products previously marketed primarily to the industry solutions segment (see “Critical Accounting Policies – Revenue Recognition” in this Item 2 above) and is now largely attributable to reduced sales and marketing expenditures for products targeted to this segment.

OPERATING EXPENSES

COST OF RECURRING REVENUE. Cost of recurring revenue consists primarily of payroll and related costs for providing maintenance and support services, and, to a lesser extent, hosting services. Cost of recurring revenue decreased by $166,000, or 10.6%, to $1.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from $1.6 million in the year earlier period. This reduction is primarily attributable to a decrease of $166,000 in salary and related costs as average headcount in our support organization was reduced by 10 employees, with 7 of these headcount reductions taking effect as part of the December 2008 restructuring of our operations. As a percentage of recurring revenue, cost of recurring revenue decreased to 27.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from 31.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.

COST OF SERVICES REVENUE. Cost of services revenue consists primarily of payroll and related costs and subcontractor fees for providing implementation, consulting and training services. Cost of services revenue decreased by $219,000, or 9.2%, to $2.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from $2.4 million in the year earlier period. This decrease is primarily attributable to reductions of (i) $175,000 in salary and related costs and (ii) $72,000 in non-cash stock compensation. The decrease in salary and related costs versus the prior year period is attributable to a workforce reduction of 7 professional services employees which occurred as part of the December 2008 restructuring of our operations. As a percentage of services revenue, cost of services revenue decreased significantly to 74.3% for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from 106.2% for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, as services revenues increased despite the reduction in headcount.

COST OF THIRD PARTY TECHNOLOGY. Cost of third party technology, which consists of amounts due to third parties for royalties related to integrated technology, has not been significant historically. Cost of third party technology increased by $22,000 to $31,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2008. In the quarter ended March 31, 2009, cost of third party technology was principally comprised of the periodic amortization of prepaid royalty amounts in advance of the expiration date of the related technology agreements. No such amortization was recorded in the corresponding quarter in 2008.

AMORTIZATION OF ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE ASSETS. Amortization of acquired intangible assets related to our acquisitions amounted to $163,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2009, which represents an increase of $107,000, or 192%, from $56,000 recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2008. This increase is attributable to amortization of the newly-acquired intangible assets in connection with the acquisitions of the ClaimRight business and Edge Dynamics.

SALES AND MARKETING. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of payroll and related benefits for sales and marketing personnel, commissions for sales personnel, travel costs, recruiting fees, expenses for trade shows and advertising and public relations expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased significantly by $1.1 million, or 48.6%, to $1.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to $2.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2008. This decrease was primarily attributable to reductions of (i) $691,000 in non-commission salary and related costs, (ii) $270,000 in marketing and promotion costs, and (iii) $408,000 in sundry other costs including travel and recruiting, partially offset by a $246,000 increase in commission costs that was a direct result of the significant increase in the gross value of license contracts sold as discussed above in this Item 2. The decrease in non-commission salary and related costs versus the prior year period was attributable to a reduction in average headcount of 18 employees in our sales and marketing departments, which was a result of the December 2008 restructuring of our operations and two other headcount reductions earlier in 2008. In addition, discretionary spending on sales and marketing activities was significantly pared in order to better align operating expenses levels with a conservative revenue forecast for 2009. As a percentage of total net revenues, sales and marketing expense decreased significantly to 12.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from 32.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses consist primarily of payroll and related costs for development personnel and external consulting costs associated with the development of our products and services. Research and development costs, including the costs of developing computer software, are charged to operations as they are incurred. Research and development expenses decreased significantly by $1.6 million, or 44.2%, to $2.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 versus $3.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. This decrease was principally comprised of reductions of (i) $723,000 in salary and related costs and (ii) $673,000 in consulting fees. The decrease in salary and related costs versus the prior year period was attributable to a reduction in our average US engineering workforce of 30 employees, which was a result of the December 2008 restructuring of our operations and two other headcount reductions earlier in 2008, partially offset by an increase in the average offshore headcount of 11 employees related to the continued growth in staffing of our development office in India. The reduction in consulting expenses represented a continuation of the significant ramp-down of resources originally retained for the development of our since-released next generation products for our health and life sciences segment. Also, the decreases in employee and consulting headcount levels were implemented in order to better align operating expenses levels with a conservative revenue forecast for 2009. As a percentage of total net revenues, research and development expenses decreased significantly to 20.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from 49.7% for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.

Table of Contents

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for personnel in our administrative, finance and human resources departments, and legal, accounting and other professional service fees. General and administrative expenses decreased by $182,000, or 11.9%, to $1.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 versus the year earlier period. This decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to (i) an $80,000 reduction in salary and related costs, which was attributable to a 2.5 decrease in average headcount related to the December 2008 restructuring of our operations, and (ii) a $65,000 decrease in legal expenses. As a percentage of total net revenues, general and administrative expenses decreased to 13.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from 20.8% for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.

DEPRECIATION. Depreciation expense increased by $50,000, or 22%, from $229,000 in the first quarter of 2008 to $279,000 in the first quarter of 2009. This increase is principally attributable to depreciation on property and equipment acquired as part of the Edge Dynamics acquisition in May 2008.

IN-PROCESS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. In connection with the acquisition of the ClaimRight business in February 2008, we allocated $760,000 of the total purchase price to in-process research and development, which was expensed upon consummation of the acquisition. This allocation was based on an independent appraisal conducted for the purpose of allocating the initial consideration to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This allocation was attributable to one in-process research and development project, which consisted of the development of significant new features and functionality to an existing software product. The previous owner of the ClaimRight business had achieved significant technological milestones on this specific project as of the acquisition date, but the project had not reached technological feasibility. At the time of the acquisition, the project was approximately 80% to 90% complete.

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES. In the quarter ended March 31, 2009, we recorded $37,000 in charges related to efforts in prior quarters to streamline operations, which includes the amortization of the discount incorporated in the initial restructuring provisions for future lease costs in connection with the Chicago and London office downsizings. The current year charge was larger than the $13,000 recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2008 due to (i) the December 2008 restructuring, which doubled the amount of London office space subject to downsizing and (ii) a decrease in the estimated value of sublease proceeds in connection with the vacated London office.

INTEREST EXPENSE

In the three-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, interest expense was comprised principally of interest and amortization incurred in connection with the convertible notes payable we issued on December 31, 2007 in the amounts of $373,000 and $364,000, respectively. Other interest expense, which consisted of financing charges on capital lease obligations and interest accrued on prior year sales tax assessments, decreased by $16,000 to $14,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 versus the year earlier period.

OTHER INCOME, NET

In the three-month period ended March 31, 2009, other income, net of $5,000 was primarily comprised of interest income of $15,000. In the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, other income, net of $189,000 was mostly comprised of $206,000 of interest income. The significant decrease in interest income in the quarter ended March 31, 2009 versus the year earlier period was attributable to large decreases in both the average invested balance and interest rate yields.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

Prior to 2009, we had incurred operating losses for all periods since our initial public offering and had consequently recorded a valuation allowance for the full amount of our net deferred tax asset, which consists principally of our net operating loss carryforwards, as the future realization of the tax benefit is uncertain. No provision or benefit for income taxes has been recorded in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements and in our previous filings on Form 10-K, we have incurred recurring losses from operations, and as of March 31, 2009 our total liabilities exceeded our total assets by $7.5 million. Also, as indicated in Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, our common stock is at risk of being delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market, which would cause our senior convertible notes to be in default. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

On December 31, 2007, we completed a private placement of $17.0 million of senior convertible notes (“Notes”), which resulted in our receipt of approximately $16.9 million in net proceeds in 2007. An additional $1.1 million in debt issuance costs were incurred and paid in 2008. The Notes bear interest at 6.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears, and will mature on December 31, 2012. The notes are redeemable at par by the investors on December 31, 2010 and by the Company at any time beginning December 31, 2010. See Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has used proceeds from the sale of the Notes for the ClaimRight and Edge Dynamics acquisitions (see Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements) and is using the remaining proceeds from the sale of the Notes for general corporate and working capital purposes. As discussed more fully in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements, the Notes would be in default, and the holders of the Notes could require the Company to redeem the Notes for their principal amount and accrued interest, if the Company’s common stock is delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market.

In the year ended December 31, 2008, we entered into capital lease financing arrangements with financial institutions amounting to $521,000 in order to finance the purchase of computer equipment, software and related services. No such financings occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2009.

At March 31, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $9.1 million, as compared to cash and cash equivalents of $20.3 million at March 31, 2008 and $9.3 million at December 31, 2008. Also, we had $17.0 million in convertible notes payable outstanding. The non-current restricted cash balance of $195,000 at March 31, 2009 is comprised of cash amounts held on deposit as security on a long-term real property lease obligation.

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $74,000, as compared to $5.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2008. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, net cash used in operating activities consisted principally of (i) decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $664,000 and $909,000, respectively, and (ii) a $295,000 increase in accounts receivable, partially offset by our net income of $799,000 as increased for depreciation and amortization of $442,000 and stock-based compensation of

Table of Contents

$394,000. The $664,000 decrease in accounts payable resulted from a significant reduction in spending on consultants and marketing discretionary items during the quarter ended March 31, 2009. The $909,000 reduction in accrued expenses was due principally to (i) $579,000 in payments on accrued severances during the quarter ended March 31, 2009 and (ii) a decrease of $430,000 in accrued payroll, with half as many days being accrued at March 31, 2009 versus December 31, 2008. The $295,000 increase in accounts receivable was primarily attributable to a 108% increase in new license sales in the first quarter of 2009 versus the last quarter of 2008.

For the three months ended March 31, 2008, net cash used in operating activities consisted principally of (i) the net loss of $5.4 million, less non-cash items depreciation and amortization of $285,000, in-process research and development of $760,000, and stock-based compensation of $521,000, and (ii) a $1.9 million decrease in accrued expenses. Also, a $1.8 million decrease in accounts receivable was largely offset by a $461,000 increase in prepaid expenses and decreases in deferred revenue and accounts payable of $590,000 and $577,000, respectively. The $1.8 million reduction in accounts receivable was primarily attributable to an 87.8% decrease in new license sales in the first quarter of 2008 versus the last quarter of 2007. The $1.9 million decrease in accrued expenses was attributable to several items, principally (a) a $508,000 decrease in management bonus accruals resulting primarily from the 2007 year end bonus payouts in February 2008, (b) final settlement and payment of $345,000 in costs related to the annual user conference held in November, (c) a $327,000 decrease in accrued salaries which was mostly attributable to timing – 5 fewer days of salaries being accrued at March 31, 2008 versus December 31, 2007, (d) a $206,000 reduction in accrued sales and VAT taxes, and (e) a $215,000 reduction in accrued commissions which was largely the result of the aforementioned license sales decrease in the first quarter of 2008. The $461,000 increase in prepaid expenses was comprised of several prepayments (e.g., subscriptions and royalties) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2008. The $590,000 decrease in deferred revenue was primarily attributable to a $396,000 decrease in deferred maintenance and support which resulted from the lack of new license sales during the quarter ended March 31, 2008 and the corresponding reduction in maintenance and support advance billings. The $577,000 decrease in accounts payable represented a reduction in an unusually high balance in this account as of December 31, 2007.

In the three months ended March 31, 2009, net cash used in investing activities was comprised solely of $52,000 in property and equipment additions. In the three months ended March 31, 2008, net cash used in investing activities consisted of $1.6 million paid to acquire the ClaimRight assets and $218,000 of property and equipment additions.

Net cash used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009 consisted solely of $122,000 in payments on capital lease obligations. Net cash used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2008 was primarily comprised of $1.1 million in payments of debt issuance costs in connection with the convertible notes payable issuance in December 2007.

We currently anticipate that our cash and cash equivalents of $9.1 million will be sufficient to meet our anticipated needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. However, this cash balance is not sufficient to redeem the $17.0 million in outstanding principal of our convertible Notes, payment of which could become due if our common stock is delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market. On October 21, 2008, we received notice from NASDAQ that the market value of our listed securities had been below the required minimum $35 million for the previous ten consecutive business days, and that if the market value of our listed securities did not exceed $35 million for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time prior to November 20, 2008, our common stock would be delisted subject to our right to a hearing before a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel. We received this delisting notice on November 24, 2008. We requested a hearing and, on January 8, 2009, presented our

plan to the Panel for regaining compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing. On March 20, 2009, the Company received notification from the Panel that it had determined to grant the Company’s request to remain listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, subject to the condition that, among other things, the Company evidence stockholders’ equity at or above $2.5 million on or before May 26, 2009. The Panel reserves the right to reconsider the terms of this exception under circumstances that make continued listing of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market unwarranted. While the Company is working to regain compliance, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance by the deadline established by the Panel.

The delisting of our common stock from the NASDAQ Capital Market is an event of default under the Notes. The terms of the Notes require the Company to list and maintain its common stock on either the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE Alternext US Market (formerly the American Stock Exchange), the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ Capital Market (collectively defined in the Notes as “Eligible Markets”). Our common stock is currently listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, and it does not currently meet the initial quantitative listing requirements of the other Eligible Markets. As indicated in Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, we announced on April 29, 2009 that we had agreed to be acquired by LLR Partners, Inc., a private equity investment firm, subject to shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions. In connection with the acquisition, the holders of our senior convertible notes have agreed to allow us to redeem their notes in full for cash at the closing. The holders of our senior convertible notes have also agreed not to accelerate the redemption of their notes if our common stock is de-listed from the NASDAQ Capital Market before the closing of the transaction. However, if the proposed merger agreement does not occur and if we are unable to obtain a waiver of a delisting default, we would be unable to repay the Notes without raising additional capital and our ability to continue as a going concern would be in significant doubt.

Also, our future long-term capital needs will depend significantly on the rate of growth of our business, our rate of income or loss, the mix of subscription licensing arrangements versus perpetual licenses sold, possible acquisitions, the timing of expanded product offerings and the success of these offerings if and when they are launched. Accordingly, any projections of future long-term cash needs and cash flows are subject to substantial uncertainty. If we need to raise capital to repay the Notes, or if our current balance of cash and cash equivalents is otherwise insufficient to satisfy our liquidity needs, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities to raise funds, and those securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the rights of our common stock. In connection with a sale of stock, our stockholders would experience dilution. In addition, we cannot be certain that additional financing will be available to us on favorable terms when required, or at all. Also, our stock price and current economic conditions may make it difficult for us to raise additional equity financing.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

INTEREST RATE RISK

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio. We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing yields without assuming significant risk. This is accomplished by investing in diversified investments, consisting primarily of short-term investment-grade securities. Due to the nature of our investments, we believe there is no material risk exposure. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates, either positive or negative, would not have had a significant effect on either (i) our cash flows and reported net losses in the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, or (ii) the fair value of our investment portfolios at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

At March 31, 2009, our cash and cash equivalents consisted entirely of money market investments with remaining maturities of 90 days or less when purchased and non-interest bearing checking accounts. Investments in marketable debt securities with maturities greater than 90 days and less than one year are classified as held-to-maturity short-term investments and are recorded at amortized cost. Under current investment guidelines, maturities on short-term investments are restricted to one year or less. Investments in auction rate securities, with maturities which can be greater than one year but for which interest rates reset in less than 90 days, are classified as available for sale securities and stated at fair market value. At March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, we held no auction rate certificates, having disposed of all our previous holdings in such investments during 2005.

At March 31, 2009, our outstanding debt consisted entirely of senior convertible notes of $17.0 million and capital lease obligations of $489,000. The interest rates on the convertible notes (6.5%) and our various capital lease obligations (6.4%—15.2%) are fixed, so we are not currently exposed to risk from changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates would not have had a significant effect on our annual interest expense.

FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RISK

We operate in certain foreign locations, where the currency used is not the U.S. dollar. However, these locations have not been, and are not currently expected to be, significant to our consolidated financial statements. Changes in exchange rates have not had a material effect on our business.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial

Table of Contents

officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2009 to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to them as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and that all such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

(b) Changes in Internal Control. No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to other information in this Form 10-Q, the following factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q and presented elsewhere by management from time to time.

OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE DELISTED FROM THE NASDAQ CAPITAL MARKET, WHICH WOULD CAUSE A DEFAULT ON OUR DEBT SECURITIES.

On November 24, 2008, we received notice that our common stock would be delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market subject to our right to a hearing before a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”). We requested a hearing and, on January 8, 2009, presented our plan to the Panel for regaining compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing. On March 20, 2009, the Company received notification from the Panel that it had determined to grant the Company’s request to remain listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, subject to the condition that, among other things, the Company evidence stockholders’ equity at or above $2.5 million on or before May 26, 2009. The Company is required to provide the Panel with prompt notification of any significant events concerning its ability to regain compliance with NASDAQ’s listing standards, and the Panel reserves the right to reconsider the terms of this exception under circumstances that make continued listing of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market unwarranted. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance by the deadline established by the Panel. If our common stock is not listed on any of the NASDAQ Stock Market, the New York Stock Exchange or the NYSE Alternext US Market (formerly the American Stock Exchange) for more than five days, we would be in default on our senior notes sold by the Company on December 31, 2007 in the principal amount of $17 million. The Company has initiated discussions to seek a waiver of this default from the holders of the notes; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain a waiver on favorable terms, if at all. If the Company is unable to obtain a waiver, it would be in default under the notes and would be unable to repay the notes without raising additional capital and its ability to continue as a going concern would be in significant doubt. See Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

DECLINING ECONOMIC CONDITIONS MAY WEAKEN OUR SALES

The ongoing downturn and uncertainty in general economic and market conditions have negatively affected and may continue to negatively affect demand for our products and services. The resulting loss or delay in our sales has had and may continue to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

THE COMPANY’S LEVERAGE MAY RESTRICT ITS FUTURE OPERATIONS

The Company has substantial indebtedness, including senior notes sold by the Company on December 31, 2007 in the principal amount of $17 million. If the proposed sale of the Company to LLR Partners, Inc. fails to close as expected, the payment of interest and principal due under this indebtedness would reduce funds available for other business purposes, including capital expenditures and acquisitions. In addition, the aggregate amount of indebtedness limits the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, and thereby may limit its operations and strategic expansion.

WE HAVE INCURRED SUBSTANTIAL LOSSES IN RECENT YEARS AND OUR RETURN TO PROFITABILITY IS UNCERTAIN

We incurred net losses of $15.8 million, $9.8 million and $15.6 million, respectively, in the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, and we had an accumulated deficit at March 31, 2009 of $174.8 million. We have a stockholders’ deficit of $7.5 million in our balance sheet at March 31, 2009. Our recent results have been impacted by a number of factors, including decisions by current and prospective customers to defer, or otherwise not make, purchases from us and relatively high research and development expense. Despite our cost restructuring effected in December 2008, we cannot assure you that we will not be affected by these or other factors in future periods. We cannot assure you that we will achieve sufficient revenues to be profitable in the future.

IT IS DIFFICULT FOR US TO PREDICT WHEN OR IF SALES WILL OCCUR AND WHEN WE WILL RECOGNIZE THE REVENUE FROM OUR FUTURE SALES

Our clients view the purchase of our software applications and related professional services as a significant and strategic decision. As a result, clients carefully evaluate our software products and services, often over long periods. Even under ideal economic conditions, the licensing of our software products may be subject to delays if the client has lengthy internal budgeting, approval and evaluation processes, which are quite common in the context of introducing large enterprise-wide technology solutions. The length of this evaluation process varies from client to client. Our clients occasionally license our software on a subscription basis, which results in deferral of payments and revenues that could otherwise be reportable if a traditional, fully-paid perpetual license were executed. Our revenue forecasts and internal budgets are based, in part, on our best assumptions about the mix of future subscription licenses versus perpetual licenses. If we enter into a larger proportion of subscription agreements than planned, we may experience an unplanned shortfall in revenues or cash during that quarter. A significant percentage of our expenses, particularly personnel costs and rent, are fixed costs and are based in part on expectations of future revenues. We may be unable to reduce spending in a timely manner to compensate for any significant fluctuations in revenues and cash. Accordingly, shortfalls in current revenues, as we have experienced in recent years, may cause our operating results to be below the expectations of public market analysts or investors, which could continue to impact the market for our common stock.

Table of Contents

OUR CASH FLOW FROM OPERATIONS HAS BEEN NEGATIVE AND MAY CONTINUE TO BE NEGATIVE UNTIL WE RETURN TO SUSTAINED PROFITABILITY, AND WE MAY NEED TO RAISE MORE CASH TO MEET OUR OPERATING NEEDS

Our future long-term capital needs will depend significantly on the rate of growth of our business, our profitability, the mix of subscription licensing arrangements versus perpetual licenses sold, possible acquisitions, the timing of expanded product offerings and the success of these offerings if and when they are launched. Accordingly, our future long-term cash needs and cash flows are subject to uncertainty. If our current balance of cash and cash equivalents is insufficient to satisfy our long-term liquidity needs, we may need to sell additional equity or debt securities to raise funds, and, if we are able to find buyers of such securities, those future securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the rights of our common stock. In connection with a sale of stock, our stockholders would experience dilution. In addition, in the current economic climate, we cannot be certain that additional financing will be available to us on favorable terms when required, or at all.

WE ARE HIGHLY DEPENDENT UPON THE LIFE SCIENCES INDUSTRY, AND FACTORS THAT ADVERSELY AFFECT THAT MARKET, INCLUDING CONSOLIDATION, COULD ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT US

Most of our revenue to date has come from pharmaceutical companies and a limited number of other clients in the life sciences industry, and our future growth depends, in large part, upon sales to the life sciences market. As a result, demand for our solutions could be affected by any factors that could adversely affect the demand for healthcare products, which are purchased and sold pursuant to contracts managed through our solutions. The financial condition of our clients and their willingness to pay for our solutions are affected by factors that may impact the purchase and sale of healthcare products, including competitive pressures, changes in regulations, decreasing operating margins within the industry, currency fluctuations, active geographic expansion and government regulation. The life sciences market has been adversely affected by the recent economic downturn and is undergoing intense consolidation. We cannot assure you that we will not experience declines in revenue caused by mergers or consolidations among our clients and potential clients.

WE HAVE MANY COMPETITORS AND POTENTIAL COMPETITORS AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY

The market for our products and services is competitive and subject to rapid change. We encounter significant competition for the sale of our contract management software from the internal information systems departments of existing and potential clients, software companies that target the contract management markets and professional services organizations. Our competitors vary in size and in the scope and breadth of products and services offered. We experience competition for market share and pressure to reduce prices and make sales concessions, which could materially and adversely affect our revenues and margins. We cannot assure you that our current or future competitors will not develop products or services that may be superior in one or more respects to ours or that may gain greater market acceptance. Some of our competitors have established or may establish cooperative arrangements or strategic alliances among themselves or with third parties, thus enhancing their abilities to compete with us. It is likely that new competitors will emerge and rapidly acquire market share. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors or that the competitive pressures faced by us will not materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

WE MADE TWO ACQUISITIONS IN 2008 AND MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY INTEGRATING THEM. WE MAY MAKE ADDITIONAL ACQUISITIONS

Since the beginning of 2008, we have acquired the ClaimRight business and Edge Dynamics, Inc. We may make additional acquisitions. Any other company that we acquire may be distant from our headquarters in Edison, New Jersey and have a culture different from ours as

well as technologies, products and services that our employees will need to understand and integrate with our own. We will have to assimilate the acquired employees, technologies and products, and that effort is difficult, time-consuming and may be unsuccessful. If we are not successful, our investment in the acquired entity may be lost, and even if we are successful, the process of integrating an acquired entity may divert our attention from our core business.

WE HAVE MULTIPLE FACILITIES AND WE MAY EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTIES IN OPERATING FROM THESE DIFFERENT LOCATIONS

We operate out of our corporate headquarters in Edison, New Jersey, engineering offices in Redwood City, California, Portland, Maine and Gandhinagar, India, and an office facility in London, England. The geographic distances between our offices makes it more challenging for our management and other employees to collaborate and communicate with each other than if they were all located in a single facility, and, as a result, increases the demand on our managerial, operational and financial resources. Also, a significant number of our sales and professional services employees work remotely out of home offices, which adds to this demand.

WE MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL IN RETAINING AND ATTRACTING TALENTED AND KEY EMPLOYEES

We depend on the services of our senior management and key technical personnel. The loss of the services of key employees, and the inability to attract new employees to fill crucial roles, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

OUR EFFORTS TO PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MAY NOT BE FULLY EFFECTIVE, AND WE MAY INADVERTENTLY INFRINGE ON THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OF OTHERS

Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain the use of information that we regard as proprietary. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. We cannot assure investors that our means of protecting our proprietary rights will be adequate or that our competitors will not independently develop similar technology.

We are not aware that any of our products infringe the proprietary rights of third parties. We cannot assure investors, however, that third parties will not claim infringement by us with respect to current or future products. We expect that software product developers will increasingly be subject to infringement claims as the number of products and competitors in our industry segment grows and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlaps. Any such claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all, which could have a material adverse effect upon our business, operating results and financial condition.
