General
Catalina Marketing Corporation, a Delaware corporation, (Catalina Marketing or the Company) provides a wide range of strategic, targeted marketing
solutions for consumer goods companies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and their respective retailers. The targeted marketing services of the Company are provided by interrelated operating groups that strive to influence the purchasing behavior of
consumers wherever and whenever they make purchasing decisions. Through their operating groups, Catalina Marketing is able to reach consumers internationally and domesticallyin-store, using incentives, loyalty programs, sampling and
advertising messages; at-home, through direct mailings and online. As of March 31, 2002, the Company employed 1,597 people reporting into 32 offices throughout the United States, Europe and Asia.
Services
Catalina Marketing was founded in 1983
to provide consumers with instore targeted coupons. Employing data mining technology from the Companys in-store Network (the Catalina Marketing Network®), Catalina Marketing now offers in-store, online and at-home reach in providing its strategic marketing solutions. These solutions are
purchase-based, individually customized communications and promotions for manufacturers and retailers that increase sales through incentives, loyalty programs, sampling and advertising messages. The Companys services enable retailers and
manufacturers to impact purchase decisions before, during and after the purchase using a variety of strategic, targeted programs.
The primary service line of the Catalina Marketing Network is the instore delivery of incentives at the checkout lane. Catalina Marketing links its proprietary software, computers, central databases and specially designed
thermal printers with a retailers point-of-sale controllers and scanners. The system prints customized promotion certificates at the point of sale based on product Universal Product Codes (UPC) or other scanned information. The
printed promotions are handed to consumers by the cashier at the end of the shopping transaction. Catalina Marketing contracts with manufacturers and retailers to print promotions and receives a fee for each promotion printed.
Catalina Marketing enters into agreements with retail chains to install the Catalina Marketing Network in all or selected
stores within the chain, either regionally or nationally. Upon installation, the retailer pays a one-time fee for each installation and generally agrees to use the Catalina Marketing Network in its store for a minimum of five years. Catalina
Marketing pays distribution fees to, and exchanges services with the retailer based on the number of manufacturer promotions printed.
The equipment installed in each retail store consists of a thermal printer at each checkout lane linked by a personal computer on premises to the retailers point-of-sale controller and scanning equipment. Catalina
Marketing operates two data processing facilities in the United States that communicate via modem with the personal computers installed in the stores to send promotional instructions and retrieve performance data. All of the equipment and supplies,
including computers, printers and paper, used in a retail installation are purchased through outside sources. While there are currently a few primary suppliers, Catalina Marketing believes that alternate sources of supply are available without
material interruptions of the Companys business.
The services of the Catalina Marketing Network are driven
by proprietary software. The software design is flexible and upgradable, supporting new applications that are developed and implemented on a continuous basis. This flexibility allows the network to offer new services, expand, and evolve as industry
or customer requirements change.
Catalina Marketing offers its core programs and services through the Catalina
Marketing Network, which is operated primarily in supermarkets. These targeted marketing solutions, including discount coupons, loyalty
1
marketing programs, sampling, advertising, in-store instant-win games and other incentives, are delivered directly to shoppers based on their actual purchase behavior. By specifying which
purchases will trigger a promotion to print, manufacturers and retailers can deliver customized incentives and messages to only the consumers they wish to reach. Catalina Marketings integrated program of applications is designed to
reach shoppers before, during and after the purchase. Couponing programs, such as Checkout Coupon®
and Checkout Direct®, use patented UPC-based scanner technology to target consumers and distribute
coupons at checkout based on actual purchase behavior. Personally identifiable data that may be collected from the Companys targeted marketing programs, as well as its research programs, is not sold or given to any outside party without the
express permission of the consumer.
Each program is designed to meet specific objectives of consumer packaged
goods manufacturers and supermarket retailers. Loyalty programs allow manufacturers and retailers to target specific households based on over 52 weeks of past purchase data. For retailers, loyalty programs include frequent shopper card
production and data management. Sampling programs target consumers based on either current purchase behavior or through a household-level database and deliver samples upon request. Samples can be full or trial-sized and delivered in-store or
at home. Advertising programs allow manufacturers to reach a captive audience through a toll-free number, announcement or message delivered at the checkout stand. In-store instant-win games are tied-in with the retailer by offering a
chance to win instantly at the checkout stand based on products that are purchased.
Catalina Marketing offers 13
four-week cycles of availability on the Catalina Marketing Network each year for more than 650 product categories, such as coffee, baby food and frozen entrees. Exclusive rights to product categories are generally given to the purchasers of specific
cycle or cycles in particular product categories, and for national programs, a right of first acceptance to purchase the same cycles in the subsequent year is given to the manufacturer who purchased the earlier cycles.
The primary revenue source of the Catalina Marketing Network is a function of total promotions printed based on a per promotion charge,
with a minimum category fee for manufacturers based on shopper reach of the network and category unit volume. Redemption processing of these promotions is similar to that of traditional manufacturer coupons. Retailers provide discounts to consumers
who present the coupons, send redeemed coupons to clearinghouses, and receive reimbursements for the discounts provided and handling fees from the manufacturers.
Retail loyalty marketing services offer targeted direct mail marketing services through Market Logic, Inc. (Market Logic) and loyalty card production services through the
Companys facilities based in Manasquan, New Jersey (formerly Dynamic Controls, Inc. or DCI). Retail loyalty marketing services also provides data collection services, data storage services, data mining services and report processing services
through the Companys facilities based in St. Petersburg, Florida and Manasquan, New Jersey.
Catalina
Marketings core domestic product lines, described above, contributed approximately 70 percent of the Companys revenues in fiscal 2002, 74 percent in fiscal 2001, and 74 percent in fiscal 2000. In the United States as of March 31, 2002,
the Catalina Marketing Network was installed in 16,488 retail stores reaching more than 204 million shoppers weekly.
The international operations of Catalina Marketing provide instore electronic targeted marketing services for consumers in Europe and Asia. The Companys current presence in Europe is in the United Kingdom, France,
and Italy. In Asia, the Company currently operates in Japan. As of March 31, 2002, the Company had installed its network in 2,897 supermarket and hypermarket retailers in Europe, and its weekly shopper reach was approximately 24.7 million. In Asia,
where the Company provides outdoor media services, in addition to in-store electronic targeted marketing services, the Catalina Marketing Network has a weekly shopper reach now totaling nearly 11.0 million in 484 retail outlets as of March 31, 2002.

Health Resource Publishing (HRP) uses an in-store prescription-based
targeting technology to provide direct-to-consumer and targeted information services advertising to healthcare consumers at the pharmacy level through the Health Resource Network. The Health Resource® newsletter is triggered by the National Drug Code (NDC), found on all prescription drugs and targeted to the consumer based on the
NDC, age, gender, third party payer, or first script / refill. When a prescription is processed via the Health Resource Network, this customized newsletter with prescription information, therapeutically relevant editorial and product advertising
material is laser-printed in the pharmacy and given to consumers by their Pharmacist when they get their medication.
HRP provides patients with targeted information to help them make better decisions about their healthcare through a variety of health-related educational tools designed to engage and educate patients regarding their prescription
medication. Compliance DirectSM improves prescription medication compliance
and persistence. Sent to patients from their own pharmacies, Compliance Direct letters contain compliance messages, such as welcoming the patient to therapy or refill reminders, sponsored by the manufacturer. PharmAwareSM delivers customized messages for pharmaceutical manufacturers needing to get their educational
messages directly to the pharmacist and pharmacy staff via the in-store Health Resource printer. The Brand Awareness CounterMat places brand specific messages directly on the pharmacy counter, ensuring customers dropping off/picking up
prescriptions see the advertisement.
HRP offers availability on the Health Resource Network to clients for
product triggers based on all prescription medications, which are distinguished by an NDC symbol. Clients are able to use these triggers to promote a wide variety of products such as over the counter medicines, prescription medication, and other
healthcare remedies and merchandise. Exclusivity rights for a particular trigger are only given to those clients that contract for periods of one year or more. Right of first acceptance to purchase the same exclusivity in the subsequent year is
given to those customers who are granted trigger exclusivity.
The primary revenue source of the Health Resource
Network is a function of total promotions printed based on a per promotion charge, with a minimum category fee for customers based on shopper reach of the network and trigger unit volume.
On June 1, 2000, the Company acquired HealthCare Data Corporation (HDC), a company likewise engaged in prescription based targeted marketing to pharmacy
customers. The acquisition of HDC, together with the organic growth of the Health Resource Network, enabled HRP to expand its networks to 17,716 pharmacy outlets reaching more than 16 million households weekly as of March 31, 2002. The business
operations of HDC have been integrated with HRP, the combination of which are referred to herein as HRP.
Developing product lines include the services provided by Catalina Interactive Marketing Services (CIMS) and Alliance Research (ARI). CIMS, previously Supermarkets Online, provides the
industrys leading online secure coupon format through its ValuPageSM service at www.valupage.com.
The ValuPage service makes use of a bar code that, when printed at home and presented at the checkout lane of one of the 14,049 participating supermarkets, along with the promoted items, issues redeemable coupons, or Web Bucks, from
in-store printers, which are cash rewards that consumers use to save on their next visit to the store. CIMS also offers a ValuPage e-mail service that delivers ValuPage coupons and other consumer packaged goods promotions directly to a
shoppers e-mail in-box.
ARI, acquired in July 1999, provides research products on consumer attitudes. ARI
has developed a suite of proprietary techniques for attitudinal research through the application of emerging technologies. These technologies include Interactive Voice Response, which allows consumers to respond to surveys via automated telephone
services, and VOCALS®, which digitally records actual voice responses in telephone surveys.
ARIs newest product line, GuestTrax, surveys customer satisfaction in the restaurant, retail and entertainment industries. On September 1, 2000, the Company acquired Market Intelligence, Inc. (MI), an attitudinal research company,
to supplement its internal growth plans and strategies. The business operations of MI have been integrated with ARI, the combination of which are referred to herein as Research.

Sales and Marketing
The Company has a manufacturer sales force and a retail sales and marketing force, both working on providing the Companys targeted marketing services to its customers. The combined manufacturer and retail sale
forces provide a coordinated sales approach to each client in order to offer tailored targeted marketing solutions.
Manufacturer Sales Force. The primary focus of the Companys marketing effort is to attract national consumer packaged goods and prescription medication manufacturers to purchase category cycles. The sales and client
service force of Catalina Marketing focus on current and prospective customers, and work with them on a consultative basis to develop and implement customized, targeted marketing programs that fit each brands strategies and objectives.
Retail Sales and Marketing Force. Catalina Marketing has two goals for its retail sales and
marketing force. The first is to continue expansion of its distribution channel by installing stores and pharmacies in major markets that are not currently part of the Catalina Marketing Network or the Health Resource Network. Expansion of HRP is
achieved through the addition of new major pharmacy chains. The second is to encourage currently installed retailers to use the Companys full-service retail loyalty marketing services, as well as Network-generated incentives to promote private
label brands or high-margin departments.
Research and Development
The Companys expenditures for research and development are generally for market research, software development, system upgrades and pilot-project execution to create, test and
support new applications for the Catalina Marketing and Health Resource Networks. Catalina Marketing believes that new service and application development, along with market expansion, are vital to maintain its continued growth.
Competition
Competition in the
marketing services business is intense and includes many competitors. Catalina Marketing competes for manufacturers advertising and consumer promotion budgets with a wide range of media, including television, radio, print and direct mail
advertising, as well as several alternative in-store and point-of-sale programs. Within the coupon industry, the Company competes with various traditional coupon delivery methods that are less expensive per delivered coupon, including free-standing
inserts (FSI), newspapers, direct mail, magazines and in- or on-product packaging, as well as other in-store marketing companies that use a variety of coupon, promotion or advertising delivery methods. HRPs competition
includes a variety of direct to consumer advertisers for healthcare products. Catalina Marketing competes for advertising and promotional dollars based on the efficiency of the Catalina Marketing Networks, its ability to accurately and effectively
target potential customers, the number of shoppers reached, and the ability to influence consumer buying behavior.
Employees
Catalina Marketing employed 1,597 people as of March 31, 2002, approximately 1,295 of which were full-time. No employees are covered by a
collective bargaining arrangement. More than 1,400 of the Companys employees are employed in the United States, with approximately 27 percent of the United States employees based in the St. Petersburg, Florida headquarters.
Patents, Proprietary Information and Trademarks
Catalina Marketing currently holds 155 United States and foreign patents relating to Catalina Marketing products and services and has a variety of patent applications pending. These patents include the initial
targeted incentive core patents as well as improvements and additional inventions related to Catalina Marketings current products and services and provide a competitive advantage; accordingly the Company will vigorously defend its proprietary
rights in all appropriate circumstances. Patent protection for evolving and new products and services
4
is important in maintaining Catalina Marketings leading position in the marketing and promotion industry, and will be a major factor affecting its future performance along with its ability
to market its services to retailers and manufacturers.
Catalina Marketing also believes that product recognition
is an important competitive factor in the electronic marketing and promotion industry. Accordingly, the Company promotes its service marks and trademarks in connection with its product and marketing activities. It also regards certain computer
software in the Catalina Marketing Network and each additional service application as proprietary and protects such software, as appropriate through copyrights, trade secret laws, non-disclosure agreements and internal security measures. While such
methods may not afford complete protection, as there can be no absolute assurance that others will not independently develop such know-how, concepts, or ideas, Catalina Marketing believes these methods offer significant protection for its
proprietary software.
The Company moved into its current headquarters facility in
November, 2000 in St. Petersburg, Fl. This 142,857 square foot facility houses the Companys principal administrative, marketing, information technology and product development offices. The Company leases an additional 27 sales and support
offices across the United States, consisting of approximately 375,000 square feet in the aggregate, and four offices for its foreign operations. The Company believes that the new headquarters facility along with the existing sales and support
offices are adequate to meet current requirements and that suitable additional space will be available as needed to accommodate growth of its operations and additional sales and support offices for the foreseeable future.

Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Catalina Marketing provides a multi-functional
communications network that provides a wide range of strategic targeted marketing solutions for manufacturers and retailers through a variety of product lines. The evolution of the Companys product lines has resulted in a single targeted
marketing services organization with interrelated operating groups, which engages consumers to influence purchase decisions. As of March 31, 2002, the Company employed 1,597 people reporting into 32 offices throughout the United States, Europe and
Asia.
Results of Operations
Year Ended March 31, 2002 compared to Year Ended March 31, 2001
Revenues were $446.7 million in fiscal 2002, up 7 percent over revenues of $417.9 million in fiscal 2001. The increase in revenues is due primarily to substantial expansion of the Health Resource Network and growth in the
Companys Retail Loyalty Marketing Services.
In the United States, the Catalina Marketing Network was in
16,488 stores at March 31, 2002, which reach approximately 204 million shoppers each week as compared to 15,475 stores reaching approximately 185 million shoppers each week at March 31, 2001. The Health Resource Network was in 17,716 pharmacies on
March 31, 2002, as compared to 12,578 pharmacies on March 31, 2001. Outside the U.S., the Catalina Marketing Network was in 3,381 stores at March 31, 2002, which reach approximately 36 million shoppers each week as compared to 2,617 stores reaching
approximately 30 million shoppers each week at March 31,2001. In fiscal 2002, the Company installed its Catalina Marketing Network in 1,013 stores (net of deinstallations) in the United States as compared to 1,959 stores in fiscal 2001.
Deinstallation activity can and does occur primarily due to the consolidation and business combination of supermarket chains as well as store closures made by retailers in the ordinary course of business. The Company also installed its Health
Resource Network in 5,138 pharmacies (net of deinstallations) in fiscal 2002 as compared to 1,320 pharmacies in fiscal 2001 in addition to the 4,587 stores added in connection with the purchase of HDC. Outside the United States, the Company
installed 764 stores (net of deinstallations) in fiscal 2002 as compared to 30 stores (net of deinstallations) in fiscal 2001.
Direct operating expenses consist of retailer fees, paper, data line charges, sales commissions, loyalty and direct mail marketing expenses, provision for doubtful accounts, the expenses of operating and maintaining the Catalina
Marketing and Health Resource Networks (primarily expenses relating to operations personnel and service offices), and the direct expenses associated with operating the outdoor media business in a majority-owned subsidiary in Asia. Direct operating
expenses increased in absolute terms to $193.1 million in fiscal 2002 from $174.2 million in fiscal 2001. Direct operating expenses in fiscal 2002 as a percentage of revenues increased to 43.2 percent from 41.7 percent in fiscal 2001. These
increases in fiscal 2002 are due primarily to a rise in the Companys retailer fees associated with HRP contract provisions, as well as the fact that HRP revenues, which generally have a higher level of direct operating expenses on a percentage
basis, constituted a greater percentage of overall revenue. Additionally, Market Logic has experienced higher than historical direct operating expenses associated with its direct marketing program. The increases in the direct operating expenses as a
percent of revenue have been offset by the reduced costs associated with the Companys paper and toner expenses relating to HRP operations and decreased billboard expenses in the Japan subsidiary.
Selling, general and administrative expenses include personnelrelated costs of selling and administrative staff, overhead, marketing
expenses and new product development expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses in fiscal 2002 were $111.5 million compared to $106.4 million in fiscal 2001, an increase of 4.8 percent or $5.1 million. As a percentage of revenues,
selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 0.5 percent in fiscal 2002, to 25.0 percent from 25.5 percent in fiscal 2001. Expenses increased in dollars due to growth of the sales force while as a percent of revenue decreased primarily as
a function of revenue growth in fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001.
7
Depreciation expense increased to $39.1 million for fiscal 2002 from $37.5 million for fiscal
2001. Depreciation increased due to the investment in capital expenditures, during the current and prior periods, associated with new operating units and product lines, data processing equipment and the increase in stores installed. Amortization
expense decreased to $3.0 million for fiscal 2002 from $5.7 million in fiscal 2001 due to the change in accounting principle under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (see Note 12).
Interest expense and other, net was $2.6 million for fiscal 2002 compared to $2.1 million for fiscal 2001. This increase in net expense is primarily
attributable to unfavorable exchange rates between U.S. and European currencies during the year.
The provision for income taxes
increased to $35.6 million, or 36.5 percent of income before income taxes and minority interest, for fiscal 2002 compared to $34.9 million, or 38.0 percent of income before income taxes, for fiscal 2001. The rate decrease is primarily due to the
change in accounting principle under SFAS No. 142 pursuant to which the Companys earnings before income tax increased while taxable income was affected to a lesser extent. The Companys effective tax rate is higher than the federal
statutory income tax rate due to state and foreign income taxes and the effect of various nondeductible expenses.
Year Ended
March 31, 2001 compared to Year Ended March 31, 2000
Revenues were $417.9 million in fiscal 2001, up 19 percent over
revenues of $350.9 million in fiscal 2000. The increase in revenues is due to an increase in promotions printed worldwide, expansion of the Health Resource Network, growth in Checkout Direct® programs as well as increases in direct mail marketing and other loyalty programs. Additionally, fiscal 2001 includes revenues from HDC and MI,
acquired in June and September 2000, respectively.
In the United States, the Catalina Marketing Network was in 15,475 stores at
March 31, 2001, which reach approximately 185 million shoppers each week as compared to 13,516 stores reaching approximately 165 million shoppers each week at March 31, 2000. The Health Resource Network was in 12,578 pharmacies on March 31, 2001,
including 4,587 acquired in the purchase of HDC on June 1, 2000, as compared to 6,671 pharmacies on March 31, 2000. Outside the U.S., the Catalina Marketing Network was in 2,617 stores at March 31, 2001, which reach approximately 30 million shoppers
each week as compared to 2,587 stores reaching approximately 35 million shoppers each week at March 31, 2000. In fiscal 2001, the Company installed its Catalina Marketing Network in 1,959 stores (net of deinstallations) in the United States as
compared to 1,424 stores in fiscal 2000. Deinstallation activity can and does occur primarily due to the consolidation and business combination of supermarket chains as well as store closures made by retailers in the ordinary course of business. The
Company also installed its Health Resource Network in 1,320 pharmacies (net of deinstallations) in fiscal 2001 as compared to 2,810 pharmacies in fiscal 2000. Outside the United States, the Company installed 30 stores (net of deinstallations) in
fiscal 2001 as compared to 652 stores (net of deinstallations) in fiscal 2000.
Direct operating expenses increased in absolute
terms to $174.2 million in fiscal 2001 from $142.2 million in fiscal 2000. Direct operating expenses in fiscal 2001 as a percentage of revenues increased to 41.7 percent from 40.5 percent in fiscal 2000. This increase in fiscal 2001 is principally
attributable to increased data line charges, an increased provision for doubtful accounts and increased expenses relating to the administration of the Catalina Marketing Network (information technology related costs), as well as higher operating
expenses at Market Logic, offset by lower direct operating expenses in connection with revenue associated with the increase in direct marketing and research programs at ARI and in the newsletter production services at HRP.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in fiscal 2001 were $106.4 million compared to $88.2 million in fiscal 2000, an increase of 20.6 percent or
$18.2 million. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 0.4 percent in fiscal 2001, to 25.5 percent from 25.1 percent in fiscal 2000. This increase is primarily attributable to increased legal fees
initiated by the Company to protect its intellectual properties.
8
Depreciation and amortization increased to $43.2 million for fiscal 2001 from
$35.2 million for fiscal 2000. Depreciation increased due to the investment in capital expenditures, during the current and prior periods, associated with new operating units and product lines, data processing equipment and the increase in stores
installed. Amortization expense increased due to the increases in goodwill and other intangible assets related to the Companys acquisitions.
Interest expense and other, net was $2.1 million for fiscal 2001 compared to $0.6 million for fiscal 2000. This increase is primarily attributable to increased long and short term borrowing balances in
the Company and its Asian subsidiary.
The provision for income taxes increased to $34.9 million, or 38.0 percent
of income before income taxes and minority interest, for fiscal 2001 compared to $34.0 million, or 40.2 percent of income before income taxes, for fiscal 2000. The rate decrease is primarily due to the Companys ability to utilize net operating
loss carry forwards of a wholly owned foreign subsidiary and lower state taxes. The Companys effective tax rate is higher than the federal statutory income tax rate due to state and foreign income taxes and various nondeductible expenses,
primarily the amortization of goodwill related to the Companys acquisitions.
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company has identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of
operations. The impact and any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations is discussed throughout Managements Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations where such policies affect our reported financial
results. A detailed discussion of these and other accounting policies can be found in Note 1 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Principles of Consolidation and Preparation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The outside investments in the Companys majority-owned subsidiaries are accounted for as minority interests on the
Companys consolidated balance sheets and income statements. The accounts of the wholly-owned and majority-owned foreign subsidiaries are included for the twelve months ended December 31, which is their fiscal year-end. The Companys
investments in non-majority owned companies were accounted for using the cost method. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the use of managements
estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Property and
Equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of store equipment, billboards and furniture and office equipment is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the
related assets, generally three to eight years. Office equipment includes EDP equipment and software bought and developed for internal use. Third party installation costs, net of amounts reimbursed by the retailer, are capitalized and amortized
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the remaining term of the
related lease. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. The Company performed a review of its long-lived assets as of March 31, 2002 and 2001 and is not reporting any impairment as a result of these reviews.
Purchased Intangible Assets, net. Purchased intangible assets primarily include goodwill, purchased patents
and other intangibles arising out of the Companys acquisitions. Purchased intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized over their useful lives (ranging from 5 to 20 years) using the straight line method. Goodwill is not amortized but
instead is subject to impairment tests at least annually. Impairment occurs when fair market value is less than the carrying value of the asset on the financial statements. Asset values determined to be impaired will be expensed in the period when
impairment is established. The Company has performed the required testing for impairment by utilizing the discounted cash flow method and is not reporting any impairment of goodwill.
9
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue. In accordance with
coupon industry practice, the Company generally pre-bills customers for purchased category or trigger cycles. The purchase of a cycle gives a customer the exclusive right to have promotions printed for a particular product category or trigger during
the applicable period. The Company recognizes in-store electronic marketing service revenues as promotions are printed. Amounts collected prior to printing are reflected as deferred revenue until printing occurs. Loyalty services revenue is
recognized when the loyalty cards or mailings are shipped.
Income Taxes. Provision for income
taxes includes federal, state and foreign income taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between the recognition of income and expenses for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes. Deferred income tax assets
or liabilities are computed based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal income tax rate in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to
reverse. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the deferred income tax assets or liabilities from period to period.
In the Companys judgement, use of the above accounting policies best support the estimates and assumptions required in the preparation of the Annual Report on Form 10-K that affect the reported amount of assets
and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.

The Company expects its revenues to be greater during periods of higher
promotional activity by manufacturers. The pattern of coupon distribution is irregular and may change from period to period depending on many factors, including the economy, competition, the timing of new product introductions and the timing of
manufacturers promotion planning and implementation. These factors, as well as the overall growth in the number of retailer and manufacturer contracts with the Company, and the timing of growth in the size of the installed store base, tend to
influence the Companys revenues and profits from period to period.
11
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Companys primary capital expenditures are store equipment and thirdparty store installation and upgrade costs, as well as data processing equipment for the
Companys central data processing facilities. Total store equipment and third-party store installation costs for the Catalina Marketing Network® range from $3,000 to $13,000 per store. During fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001, the Company made net capital expenditures of $30.2 million and $54.2 million, respectively. The pace of
installations varies depending on the timing of contracts entered into with retailers and the scheduling of store installations by mutual agreement.
Effective September 1, 2000, the Company, through one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common shares of Market Intelligence, Inc., an attitudinal research
company, for approximately $1.0 million in initial cash consideration. The terms of the acquisition provide for additional payments of up to $1.0 million, contingent upon the business units performance.
Effective June 1, 2000, the Company, through one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common shares
of HealthCare Data Corporation, a company which provides strategic targeted marketing solutions for health-related and pharmaceutical manufacturers and retailers, for $13.0 million in cash, net of cash acquired.
Effective July 1, 1999, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Alliance Research, an attitudinal research
company, for $6.7 million in initial consideration, net of cash and cash equivalents acquired. Terms of the purchase agreement called for the Company to make a series of payments. Under the provisions of the contract, these payments were accelerated
and finalized in the third quarter of fiscal 2002. These payments were based upon specified growth.
Effective
April 21, 1999, the Company, through one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, acquired the technology of its Checkout Prizes® application by virtue of a merger transaction between the Company and CompuScan Marketing, Inc. Initial cash consideration was $9.1 million, net of cash acquired. Terms of the merger agreement called for the Company to
make a series of additional payments which concluded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. These payments were based upon specified growth.
Effective January 4, 1999, the Company acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common shares of Dynamic Controls, Inc., which offers card-based loyalty marketing programs for retailers, for $4.6
million in initial cash consideration, net of cash acquired. Terms of the purchase agreement called for the Company to make a series of payments which concluded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. These payments were based upon specified revenue
growth.
The above referenced acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting for
acquisitions and, accordingly, the results of operations of each acquisition have been included in the fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000 consolidated financial statements since the date of such acquisition. The additional consideration paid under the
earnout provisions of all the Companys acquisition transactions totaled $30.3 million, $39.9 million and $22.2 million for fiscal years 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
The Company may, from time to time, purchase additional interests in its majority-owned subsidiaries.
On January 4, 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with the Tribune Company, a minority equity investor in Supermarkets Online Holdings, Inc. (Holdco),
the parent company of Supermarkets Online, Inc. (SMO), the Companys internet-based marketing and advertising subsidiary. As a part of this agreement, the Company acquired all of the Holdco common shares held by the Tribune Company,
repaid a subordinated convertible note, and terminated a marketing agreement between the Tribune Company and SMO for total consideration of $10.5 million. The acquisition of the common shares was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting
for business combinations. The subordinated convertible note repayment and the marketing services agreement termination has been accounted for as a reduction in long term debt and deferred revenue, respectively. During fiscal years 2002 and 2001
stock repurchase payments of approximately $2.0 million and $1.0 million in aggregate, respectively, were made to individual minority stockholders. These payments are accounted for as an increase in goodwill. As of March 31, 2002, all outstanding
shares of SMO were held by Holdco, and all outstanding shares of Holdco were held by the Company.
12
On October 24, 2000, the Company acquired a total of 16 US patents and 12 pending
U.S. patent applications together with all foreign rights related to the inventions encompassed by the original patents and patent applications. The purchase price of these patents and patent applications of $17.0 million is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over the remaining estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 9 to 14 years.
Additionally, the Company purchased various patents and investments in the amount of $.3 million and $3.2 million during fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001, respectively.
As of March 31, 2001, the Company was authorized to repurchase $30.1 million of the Companys stock. On July 26, 2001, the Board of Directors approved additional
repurchases of $60.0 million of the Companys common stock. During fiscal 2002, the Company repurchased 1,621,100 shares of its common stock for a total of $46.5 million. As of March 31, 2002, $43.6 million was still available for share
repurchase under the July 26, 2001 authorization. The Company may, from time to time, repurchase shares of the Companys common stock outstanding under the authorization.

As of October 21, 1999, the Company entered into a lease financing
agreement (Lease Agreement) with a special purpose entity for the corporate headquarters facility in St. Petersburg, Florida. The Company employs this arrangement because it provides a cost-efficient form of financing, including certain
tax benefits, as well as an added level of diversification of funding sources. The special purpose entity was partially funded by an outside equity investment of three percent and accordingly, the special purpose entity qualified for off-balance
sheet treatment. The remaining funding for the special purpose entity was provided by outside commercial banks in the form of long-term debt and is secured by the facility and guaranteed by the Company. The operating lease term runs through
September 2005. The Company has the opportunity to extend the lease term for up to three, five year renewal periods, subject to certain conditions. The Lease Agreement includes a purchase option for the Company that approximates the original cost of
the $30.5 million facility. In the event that the lease is not extended or the purchase option is not elected, the facility may be sold. The proceeds from such a sale are to be applied to the remaining debt obligations of the special purpose entity.
The Company guarantees any difference between the proceeds of the sale and the remaining debt obligations of the special purpose entity.
The Company occupied the corporate headquarters facility and began making lease payments in November 2000. The present value of the future minimum lease payments for the facility (included above) based on interest rates as
on March 31, 2002, are as follows: $747,000 in 2003, $729,000 in 2004, $712,000 in 2005, and $23,931,000 in 2006.
On October 10, 1996, the Company purchased 51% of Pacific Media, K.K.(PMKK), a Japanese media company. Terms of the purchase agreement provide a call option whereby the Company has the right beginning in May 2002 to
purchase the remaining 49% of PMKK at a price calculated based upon a multiple of operating income pursuant to the call formula as defined in the purchase agreement. The terms of the purchase agreement also provide for a put option where by the
minority shareholders, effective May 2003, have the right to require the Company to purchase the remaining 49% of PMKK at a price calculated based upon a multiple of operating income pursuant to the put formula as defined in the purchase agreement.
The Company believes working capital generated by operations along with existing credit facilities is sufficient
for its overall capital requirements.

Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements in this Form 10-K may be forward looking, and actual results may differ materially. Statements not based on historic facts involve risks and
uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the changing market for promotional activities, especially as it relates to policies and programs of packaged goods and pharmaceutical manufacturers and retailers for the issuance of certain product
promotions, the effect of economic and competitive conditions and seasonal variations, actual promotional activities and programs with the companys customers, the pace of installation of the companys store network, the success of new
services and businesses and the pace of their implementation, and the companys ability to maintain favorable client relationships.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Companys principal market risks are interest rates on various debt instruments and foreign exchange rates at the Companys international subsidiaries.
Interest Rates
The Company centrally manages
its domestic debt considering investment opportunities and risks, tax consequences and overall financing strategies. This domestic debt consists of a line of credit with interest rates based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate.
International debt relates to the Companys Japan subsidiaries and is used to fund the purchases of coupon equipment and billboards and for day to day operations.
Additionally, the rent expenses associated with the lease financing agreement with a special purpose entity for the Companys corporate headquarters are based on
fluctuating short-term interest rates. These rates are based on the LIBOR rate and can be adjusted based on short-term rates up to six months. A one-point change in interest rates, based on the March 31, 2002 debt and off-balance sheet obligations,
would not have a material impact on the Companys operations.
Foreign Operations
Operating in international markets involves exposure to movements in currency exchange rates, which can be volatile at times. The economic
impact of currency exchange rate movements on Catalina Marketing is complex because such changes are often linked to variability in real growth, inflation, interest rates, governmental actions and other factors. These changes, if material, could
cause the Company to adjust its financing and operating strategies.
Catalina Marketings net sales at its
foreign subsidiaries represented approximately 10.2% of the Companys total net sales in fiscal 2002, 13.4% in fiscal 2001, and 14.9% in fiscal 2000. The aggregate foreign exchange effect included in determining consolidated results of
operations were approximately a $400,000 loss in the Companys total net income in fiscal 2002, $600,000 loss in fiscal 2001, and $300,000 gain in fiscal 2000. The Company has not utilized derivative financial instruments to reduce the effect
of fluctuating foreign currencies. The Company estimates that based upon the March 31, 2002 balance sheet, a 10% change in foreign exchange rates would not have a material effect on operating profit. The Company believes that this quantitative
measure has inherent limitations because it does not take into account the impact of macroeconomic factors or changes in either results of operations or our financing and operating strategies.

To Catalina
Marketing Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Catalina Marketing
Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity and other comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended March 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of Catalina Marketing Corporation and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2002, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

CATALINA MARKETING CORPORATION
March 31, 2002
Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The following summarizes the significant accounting and financial policies of Catalina Marketing Corporation and Subsidiaries (the Company) which have been
followed in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Description of the
Business. The Company provides targeted marketing services. Through its proprietary network, the Company provides consumer and pharmaceutical product manufacturers and retailers with cost-effective methods of delivering
promotional incentives and advertising messages directly to consumers based on their purchasing behavior. Additionally, the Company provides attitudinal research through the application of emerging technologies and has a majority-owned subsidiary
that operates an outdoor media business in Asia. As of March 31, 2002, the Companys network was installed in 16,488 retail stores and 17,716 pharmacies throughout the United States and 3,381 retail stores throughout the United Kingdom, France,
Italy and Japan.
Principles of Consolidation and Preparation. The consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The outside investments in the Companys majority-owned subsidiaries
are accounted for as minority interests on the Companys consolidated balance sheets and income statements. The accounts of the wholly-owned and majority-owned foreign subsidiaries are included for the twelve months ended December 31, which is
their fiscal year-end. The Companys investments in non-majority owned companies were accounted for using the cost method. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
requires the use of managements estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Fair Value
of Financial Instruments. The book value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate carrying value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying value of
the Companys long term debt approximates fair value based on variable interest rates.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term investments. The short-term investments can be immediately converted to cash and are recorded at their fair market values.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The Company records a provision for estimated doubtful accounts as part of
direct operating expenses. As of March 31, 2002 and 2001, the allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $3,191,000 and $2,433,000, respectively.
Inventory. Inventory consists primarily of paper used for promotion printing, as well as card processing forms and supplies for loyalty operations. Inventory is stated at
the lower of cost, as determined by the first-in, first-out method, or market.
Property and
Equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of store equipment, billboards and furniture and office equipment is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the
related assets, generally three to eight years. Office equipment includes EDP equipment and software bought and developed for internal use. Third party installation costs, net of amounts reimbursed by the retailer, are capitalized and amortized
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the remaining term of the
related lease. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. The Company performed a review of its long-lived assets as of March 31, 2002 and 2001 and is reporting no impairment as a result of these reviews.
Foreign Currency Translation. Balance sheet accounts are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end
of the subsidiaries year and income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates for the year. Translation gains and losses are included as a separate component of stockholders equity in accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss).

CATALINA MARKETING CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
Purchased Intangible Assets,
net. Purchased intangible assets primarily include goodwill, purchased patents and other intangibles arising out of the Companys acquisitions. Purchased intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized over their
useful lives (ranging from 5 to 20 years) using the straight line method. Goodwill is not amortized but instead is subject to impairment tests at least annually. Impairment is defined as fair market value less than the carrying value of the asset on
the financial statements. Asset values determined to be impaired will be expensed in the period when impairment is established. The Company has performed the required testing for impairment by utilizing the discounted cash flow method and is not
reporting any impairment of goodwill.
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue. In
accordance with coupon industry practice, the Company generally pre-bills customers for purchased category or trigger cycles. The purchase of a cycle gives a customer the exclusive right to have promotions printed for a particular product category
or trigger during the applicable period. The Company recognizes instore electronic marketing service revenues as promotions are printed. Amounts collected prior to printing are reflected as deferred revenue until printing occurs. Loyalty
services revenue is recognized when the loyalty cards or mailings are shipped.
Income
Taxes. Provision for income taxes includes federal, state and foreign income taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between the recognition of income and expenses for financial reporting
purposes and income tax purposes.
Research and Development. Research and
development costs relating to the development and testing of new service applications are expensed as incurred.
Net Income Per Common Share. The following is a reconciliation of the denominator of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) computations shown on the face of the accompanying consolidated financial
statements as restated for the Companys three-for-one stock split (see Note 13) (in thousands):

As of March 31, 2002, options to purchase approximately
2,025,000 shares of common stock ranging in price from $33.46 to $36.82 were outstanding, but were not included on the computation of diluted EPS because the options price was greater that the average market price of the common stock. As of
March 31, 2001, all outstanding common stock options were included in the computation of diluted EPS. As of March 31, 2000, options to purchase 90,900 shares of common stock at a price of $35.63 were outstanding, but were not included in the
computation of diluted EPS because the options exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common stock.
Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications to the fiscal year 2001 consolidated financial statements have been made to conform with the current years presentation.

The increase in goodwill during fiscal 2002 is primarily a result
of earnout payments made per acquisition agreements entered into in previous periods. Amortization for identifiable intangible assets was approximately $2,948,000, $2,205,000, and $682,000 in fiscal years 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively.

Note 3. Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and
income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal income tax rate in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the deferred income
tax assets or liabilities from period to period.
Temporary differences for financial statement and income tax
purposes result primarily from charges to operations for financial statement reporting purposes which are not currently tax deductible and revenues deferred for financial statement reporting purposes which are currently taxable. The components of
the deferred tax asset and liability were as follows (in thousands):

The valuation allowance increased by $943,000 during fiscal 2002 as
it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets generated by certain foreign subsidiaries and losses of unconsolidated equity investments will not be realized.
As of March 31, 2002, the Company had cumulative US federal taxable net operating loss (NOL) carry-forwards of $2,016,000, which expire between 2010 and 2015.
These NOLs were acquired through various Company acquisitions. In addition, various foreign subsidiaries of the Company had aggregate foreign taxable NOL carry-forwards of $11,420,000. Approximately $2,440,000 of the foreign NOLs can be carried
forward indefinitely, while the remaining $8,980,000 may expire between 2004 and 2007. Approximately $8,980,000 of the foreign pre-tax losses represented by NOLs has already been deducted as a flow-through item in the consolidated U.S. Federal
income tax return.

Certain debt held by the Companys Japan subsidiary is

On September 25, 2000, the Company entered into a credit agreement
(the Credit Agreement) with a syndicate of commercial banks including Bank One, NA as the Administrative Agent (Bank One), and Wachovia Bank, NA as the Syndication Agent and Documentation Agent.
The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving loan credit facility of up to $150 million in favor of the Company. The termination date of
the revolving loan credit facility is September 25, 2003.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest
at rates based upon either (i) the British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rate (Eurodollar Rate) plus an applicable margin ranging from 50 to 87.5 basis points, or (ii) the higher of 50 basis points over the Federal Funds Rate or Bank
Ones prime rate of interest. The average interest rate for fiscal 2002 and the year end rate as of March 31, 2002 were 3.69% and 2.42%, respectively. In addition, the Credit Agreement provides for unused facilities fees to accrue at a range of
15 to 22.5 basis points per annum multiplied by the unused portions of the revolving credit and line of credit facilities. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by several Company subsidiaries and contains certain financial covenants and other terms
and conditions. As of March 31, 2002, the Company was in compliance with all such financial covenants.
Interest
expense was $2,252,000, $2,679,000, and $1,294,000 in fiscal years 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively.

As of October 21, 1999, the Company entered into a lease financing
agreement (Lease Agreement) with a special purpose entity for the corporate headquarters facility in St. Petersburg, Florida. The Company employs this arrangement because it provides a cost-efficient form of financing, including certain
tax benefits, as well as
26
CATALINA MARKETING CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
an added level of diversification of funding sources. The special purpose entity was partially funded by an outside equity investment of three percent and accordingly, the special purpose entity
qualified for off-balance sheet treatment. The remaining funding for the special purpose entity was provided by outside commercial banks in the form of long-term debt and is secured by the facility and guaranteed by the Company. The operating lease
term runs through September 2005. The Company has the opportunity to extend the lease term for up to three, five year renewal periods, subject to certain conditions. The Lease Agreement includes a purchase option for the Company that approximates
the original cost of the $30.5 million facility. In the event that the lease is not extended or the purchase option is not elected, the facility may be sold. The proceeds from such a sale are to be applied to the remaining debt obligations of the
special purpose entity. The Company guarantees any difference between the proceeds of the sale and the remaining debt obligations of the special purpose entity.
The Company occupied the corporate headquarters facility and began making lease payments in November 2000. The present value of the future minimum lease payments for the facility (included above) based
on interest rates as on March 31, 2002, are as follows: $747,000 in 2003, $729,000 in 2004, $712,000 in 2005, and $23,931,000 in 2006.
On October 10, 1996, the Company purchased 51% of Pacific Media, K.K.(PMKK), a Japanese media company. Terms of the purchase agreement provide a call option whereby the Company has the right beginning in May 2002
to purchase the remaining 49% of PMKK at a price calculated based upon a multiple of operating income pursuant to the call formula as defined in the purchase agreement. The terms of the purchase agreement also provide for a put option where by the
minority shareholders, effective May 2003, have the right to require the Company to purchase the remaining 49% of PMKK at a price calculated based upon a multiple of operating income pursuant to the put formula as defined in the purchase agreement.
The Company is involved in certain litigation arising out of the Companys business, including litigation
initiated by the Company to protect its intellectual property or to defend itself against claims brought by others. Additionally, the Company is in the appeals phase in a sales tax case with a state taxing authority. In the opinion of management,
the ultimate outcome of this litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial statements.

percent. The assumptions used for grants in fiscal 2001 are: risk-free interest rates ranging from 5.13 to 6.23 percent depending on the date of grant; expected dividend yield of zero percent; expected life of nine years; and expected volatility of
41.67 percent. The assumptions used for grants in fiscal 2000 are: risk-free interest rates ranging from 5.17 to 6.76 percent depending on the date of grant; expected dividend yield of zero percent; expected life of five years to eight years; and
expected volatility of 42.17 percent. The fair values of options granted in fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000 are $31,884,782, $54,139,392, and $18,999,941 respectively, which would be amortized as compensation over the vesting period of the options.

CATALINA MARKETING CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
Pro forma amounts include approximately $671,000, $525,000, and
$396,000 related to the purchase discount offered under the Purchase Plan for fiscal years 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Note
7. Stockholder Protection Plan
The Company has adopted a
Stockholder Protection Plan. To implement this plan, the Company declared a dividend of one Preferred Share Purchase Right on each outstanding share of the Companys common stock. The dividend distribution was payable to stockholders of record
on May 12, 1997. The rights will be exercisable for fractions of a share of the Companys Series X Junior Participating Preferred Stock only if a person or group acquires 15 percent or more of the Companys common stock or announces or
commences a tender offer for 15 percent or more of the common stock, except for certain instances defined in the Stockholder Protection Plan.
Note 8. Savings Plans
The Company maintains a
401(k) Savings Plan. The Companys contributions during fiscal years 2002, 2001 and 2000 were approximately $1,062,000, $1,002,000 and $1,047,000 respectively.
The Company maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the Deferred Compensation Plan). The Deferred Compensation Plan is designed to permit certain
employees and directors of the Company to defer a portion of their compensation. The Deferred Compensation Plan allows participants to elect deferral of certain types of compensation, including directors fees, stock grants under the Grant Plan and
shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, into stock units in the Deferred Compensation Plan each of which represents a share of the Companys common stock, and creates the Catalina Marketing Corporation Deferred Compensation Trust
(the Trust). Amounts deposited in stock unit accounts are distributed in the form of shares of the Companys common stock upon a payment event. Through the Trust, investment options such as mutual funds and money market funds are
available to participants.
The investment in the Deferred Compensation Plan and related liability are included in
prepaid expenses and other current assets and accrued expenses in the Companys consolidated balance sheets, respectively. The Company determined all of its Deferred Compensation Plan investments currently held in mutual funds and money market
funds are trading securities and as such are reported at fair value. Realized and unrealized holding gains and losses related to these investments, as well as the offsetting compensation expense, recognized in net income during fiscal years 2002,
2001 and 2000 were not significant. Stock units are initially recorded at fair value.
Note 9. Other
Post Retirement Benefits
The Company provides health care benefits to certain eligible retirees
and active employees and their eligible dependents. Benefits are funded from the Companys assets on a current basis. Plan benefits are subject to co-payments, deductibles and other limits as defined. The Companys funding of the cost of
healthcare benefits is at the discretion of management.

Note 10. Segment Information
The Company operates through individual operating units which share similar economic characteristics,
customers, distribution channels, products and services and production processes. As a result, the Company has aggregated its operating units and product lines into a single reporting segment called Targeted Marketing Services. The Companys
accounting policies for segments are the same as those described in Note 1. Management evaluates segment performance based on net income/(loss). The Companys results of operations do not include revenue from internal sources in the amounts of
$17,358,000, $18,953,000, and $2,163,000 during fiscal years 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. Revenue from internal sources is wholly eliminated in the presentation of consolidated results.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
Note 11. Acquisitions and Other
Effective September 1, 2000, the Company, through one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, acquired 100 percent
of the outstanding common shares of Market Intelligence, Inc., an attitudinal research company, for approximately $1.0 million in initial cash consideration. The terms of the acquisition provide for additional payments of up to $1.0 million,
contingent upon the business units performance.
Effective June 1, 2000, the Company, through one of its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common shares of HealthCare Data Corporation, a company which provides strategic targeted marketing solutions for health-related and pharmaceutical manufacturers and retailers, for
$14.2 million in cash, net of cash acquired.
Effective July 1, 1999, the Company acquired certain assets and
assumed certain liabilities of Alliance Research, an attitudinal research company, for $6.7 million in initial consideration, net of cash and cash equivalents acquired. Terms of the purchase agreement called for the Company to make a series of
payments. Under the provisions of the contract, these payments were accelerated and finalized in the third quarter of fiscal 2002. These payments were based upon specified growth.
Effective April 21, 1999, the Company, through one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, acquired the technology of its Checkout Prizes® application by virtue of a merger transaction between the Company and CompuScan Marketing Inc. Initial cash consideration was $9.1
million, net of cash acquired. Terms of the merger agreement called for the Company to make a series of additional payments which concluded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. These payments were based upon specified growth.
Effective January 4, 1999, the Company acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common shares of Dynamic Controls, Inc., which
offers card-based loyalty marketing programs for retailers, for $4.6 million in initial cash consideration, net of cash acquired. Terms of the purchase agreement called for the Company to make a series of payments which concluded in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2001. These payments were based upon specified revenue growth.
The above referenced
acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting for acquisitions and, accordingly, the results of operations of each acquisition have been included in the fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000 consolidated financial statements
since the date of such acquisition. The additional consideration paid under the earnout provisions of all the Companys acquisition transactions totaled $30.3 million, $39.9 million and $22.2 million for fiscal years 2002, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.
On January 4, 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with the Tribune Company, a minority
equity investor in Supermarkets Online Holdings, Inc. (Holdco), the parent company of Supermarkets Online, Inc. (SMO), the Companys internet-based marketing and advertising subsidiary. As a part of this agreement, the
Company acquired all of the Holdco common shares held by the Tribune Company, repaid a subordinated convertible note, and terminated a marketing agreement between the Tribune Company and SMO for total consideration of $10.5 million. The acquisition
of the common shares was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. The subordinated convertible note repayment and the marketing services agreement termination has been accounted for as a reduction in long term
debt and deferred revenue, respectively. During fiscal years 2002 and 2001 stock repurchase payments of approximately $2.0 million and $1.0 million in aggregate, respectively, were made to individual minority stockholders. These payments are
accounted for as an increase in goodwill. As of March 31, 2002, all outstanding shares of SMO were held by by Holdco, and all outstanding shares of Holdco were held by the Company.

CATALINA MARKETING CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
On October 24, 2000, the Company acquired a total of 16 US patents
and 12 pending U.S. patent applications together with all foreign rights related to the inventions encompassed by the original patents and patent applications. The purchase price of these patents and patent applications of $17.0 million is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 9 to 14 years.
Additionally, the Company purchased patents and investments in the amount of $.3 million and $3.2 million during fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001, respectively.
Note 12. Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
Effect of SFAS No. 141. In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141). SFAS No. 141 requires that all business
combinations after June 30, 2001 be accounted for by using the purchase method of accounting. The implementation of SFAS No. 141 as of June 30, 2001 did not have any effect on the Companys financial statements.
Effect of SFAS No. 142. In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS No. 142). SFAS No. 142 addresses the accounting and reporting for goodwill and other intangibles. SFAS No. 142 is required for financial statements relating to fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2001. As permitted, the Company has chosen to adopt SFAS No. 142 early, effective as of April 1, 2001.
Goodwill is no longer amortized but instead is subject to impairment tests at least annually. Impairment occurs when fair market value is less than the carrying value of the asset on the financial statements. Asset values
determined to be impaired will be expensed in the period when impairment is established. The Company has performed the required testing for impairment by utilizing the discounted cash flow method and is not reporting any impairment of goodwill. In
addition, proforma amounts have been presented on the face of the statements of income for the prior periods presented as if SFAS No. 142 had been implemented as of April 1, 1999.
Effect of SFAS No. 143. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations (SFAS No.
143). SFAS No. 143 establishes accounting standards for recognition and measurement of a liability for an asset retirement obligation and the associated asset retirement cost. SFAS No. 143 is effective for financial statements relating to
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. Management does not expect SFAS No. 143 to have a material effect on the Companys financial statements.
Effect of SFAS No. 144. In September 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS No.
144). SFAS No. 144 addresses the financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Management
does not expect SFAS No. 144 to have a material effect on the Companys financial statements.
Note
13. Stock Split
A three-for-one stock split of the Companys
outstanding common stock, effected as a stock dividend and an increase in the authorized common shares, was approved by the Companys Board of Directors, and the increase in the authorized common shares was approved by the Companys
stockholders at the annual meeting held on July 18, 2000. The stock dividend was paid August 17, 2000 to stockholders of record on July 26, 2000. Holders of common stock received two additional shares of common stock for each share held of record as
of July 26, 2000. All applicable references to common stock shares, including the calculations of EPS have been adjusted for all periods shown to reflect the stock split and the increase in authorized shares.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
Disclosure
The Audit Committee of the Companys Board
of Directors annually considers and recommends to the Board of Directors the selection of the Companys independent public accountants. As recommended by the Companys Audit Committee, the Companys Board of Directors on May 20, 2002
determined that it would no longer engage Arthur Andersen LLP (Andersen), effective with the filing of this Form 10-K, as its independent public accountants and engaged Ernst & Young LLP to serve as the Companys independent
public accountants for fiscal year 2003. The appointment of Ernst & Young LLP is subject to ratification by the Companys stockholders at the 2002 annual meeting scheduled for July 25, 2002.
The reports of Andersen on the Companys financial statements for the past two fiscal years contained no adverse opinion or
disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Companys two most fiscal years and through the date of this Form 10-K, there were no disagreements with Andersen on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope
or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to Andersens satisfaction would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements for such years, and there were no reportable events as defined in Item
304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided Andersen with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. Attached
as Exhibit 16 to this Form 10-K is a copy of Andersens letter stating its agreement with such statements.
During the Companys two most recent fiscal years and through May 20, 2002, the Company did not consult Ernst & Young LLP with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed
or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Companys consolidated financial statements, or any other matters or reportable events listed in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
