SUNGARD DATA SYSTEMS INC. NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of SunGard Data Systems Inc. and its subsidiaries (SunGard or the Company) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Interim financial
reporting does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses.
On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates. Those estimates are based on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about amounts and timing of revenues and expenses, the carrying values of assets and the recorded amounts of liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. Future events could cause actual results to differ from those estimates, and those estimates may change if the underlying conditions or assumptions change. The Company amortizes identifiable
intangible assets, including software product costs, over periods that it believes approximate the related useful lives of those assets based upon estimated future operating results and cash flows of the underlying business operations. Those
estimates could change due to numerous factors, including product demand, market conditions, technological developments, economic conditions and competitor activities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates the remaining lives, carrying amounts
and recoverability of all of its intangible assets.
Operating results for the nine and three month periods ended
September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2002. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations and with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
2. Acquisitions:
During the nine month period ended September 30, 2002, the Company completed six acquisitions in its Investment Support Systems segment and one acquisition in its Availability Services segment. Cash paid, net of cash
acquired, in connection with these acquisitions is $209.4 million, subject to certain adjustments. Goodwill recorded for all of these acquisitions is $315.4 million.
4
On July 1, 2002, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of
substantially all of the outstanding shares of Guardian iT plc (Guardian). Guardian is a UK-based international supplier of business-critical information technology solutions and has become part of the Companys Availability Services segment.
The purchase price values Guardian at approximately $272.8 million, consisting of approximately $85.5 million for the shares of Guardian, plus approximately $187.3 million of Guardian bank debt and finance lease obligations. The Company repaid
Guardians previously existing bank debt upon consummation of the acquisition, and, subsequent to the acquisition, repaid most of Guardians remaining finance lease obligations.
At September 30, 2002, the purchase-price allocation to the Guardian assets acquired and liabilities assumed is preliminary. The amounts allocated to property and equipment
($82.6 million) are based on preliminary conclusions resulting from independent inventories and appraisals, and the amounts allocated to contracts and customer base ($73.0 million to be amortized over 12.5 years) are based on preliminary conclusions
from independent appraisals, which include an analysis of the business and expected cash flows.
In connection
with the integration of the Guardian business into the Companys Availability Services segment, the Company expects to close thirteen facilities and terminate approximately 75 employees within the next year. Total costs accrued for facility
closures and severance are $44.4 million and $5.9 million, respectively, of which $35.8 million and $4.9 million, respectively, are the estimated costs of closing certain Guardian facilities and terminating certain Guardian employees and therefore
accrued as a cost of the acquisition and as part of goodwill. The remaining $9.6 million represents the estimated costs for closing certain of the Companys facilities and terminating certain of the Companys employees and is included in
merger costs in the third quarter of 2002. At September 30, 2002, total goodwill recorded in connection with the Guardian acquisition is $263.0 million, increasing total goodwill in the Availability Services segment to $607.0 million. The
purchase-price allocation will be completed upon finalization of facility closure plans, which are based in part on customer input, along with finalization of the customer base valuation, property lease valuations and fixed asset inventories and
appraisals.

At September 30, 2002, the purchase-price allocation to the
Comdisco Availability Solutions (CAS) assets acquired and liabilities assumed is preliminary. The amounts allocated to property and equipment ($305.9 million) are based on preliminary conclusions resulting from independent inventories and
appraisals, and the amounts allocated to contracts and customer base ($206.0 million amortized over 19 years) are based on conclusions from independent appraisals, which include an analysis of the business and expected cash flows. Total costs
accrued in 2001 for severance and facility closures were $23.2 million, of which $17.3 million is the estimated costs of closing certain CAS facilities and terminating certain CAS employees and therefore was accrued as a cost of the acquisition and
as part of goodwill. The remaining $5.9 million is the estimated costs for terminating certain of the Companys employees and closing certain of the Companys facilities and was included in merger costs in the fourth quarter of 2001.
During 2002, the plans for severance and facility closures relating to the CAS acquisition were adjusted,
resulting in a net increase to goodwill of $0.6 million and a net reversal of merger costs of $1.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The Company terminated approximately 350 employees, closed thirteen facilities and expects to
close two additional facilities over the next six months. The facility closure accrual relates primarily to the remaining lease obligations of the fifteen facilities, and will be paid over their remaining lease terms, which extend through 2005, or
until a facility is sublet. The purchase-price allocation will be completed during the fourth quarter of 2002 upon finalization of facility closure plans, which are based in part on customer input.

The following unaudited pro forma combined results of operations is
provided for illustrative purposes only and assumes that the CAS and Guardian acquisitions had occurred as of the beginning of the period presented (January 1, 2001). The following unaudited pro forma information for the nine months ended September
30, 2002 and 2001 (in thousands, except per-share amounts) should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of the historical results that would have been obtained if these acquisitions had actually occurred during that period, nor the
results that may be obtained in the future.

On August 14, 2002, the Company completed the previously announced
acquisition of the remaining 78% of the shares of Brut LLC (Brut) not already owned by the Company. Brut is an electronic communications network, or ECN, which is an alternative electronic stock-trading venue. The acquisition is not expected to have
a material effect on the Companys financial condition or its results of operations.
At September 30, 2002,
the Company has a total of up to $109.2 million which could be paid as additional consideration through January 2005, contingent upon the operating performance of certain acquired businesses. The amount paid, if any, will be recorded as additional
goodwill at the time the actual performance is known and the amounts become due.
During the nine and three months
ended September 30, 2002, the Company recorded merger costs of $12.2 million and $10.5 million, respectively, ($0.03 and $0.02 per diluted share, respectively), as compared to $1.8 million ($0.01 per diluted share) during the nine months ended
September 30, 2001. There were no merger costs recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2001. The 2002 merger
7
costs are related to the acquisitions of Guardian, CAS and Brut, and include estimated costs related to shut-down of certain facilities, severance, and the Companys share of accounting,
investment banking and legal fees incurred by Guardian and Brut. Merger costs incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 were related to an acquisition accounted for as a pooling of interests, partially offset by a break-up fee paid to
the Company related to an acquisition not completed, net of related costs incurred. In addition, during the second quarter of 2002, the Company recorded other income of $0.6 million, comprised of a $2.9 million gain on currency purchases made in
late June 2002 needed to fund the acquisition of Guardian on July 1, 2002, offset in part by $2.3 million of expense related to the Companys 25% interest in Guardians loss for May and June of 2002.
3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Number 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142), addresses, among other things, how goodwill and other intangible assets should be
accounted for after they have been initially recorded in the financial statements. Under SFAS 142, as of January 1, 2002, goodwill is no longer amortized, but rather is tested at least annually for impairment. As required by SFAS 142, the Company
completed its goodwill impairment test, and believes that no goodwill impairment currently exists.

Additionally, effective January 1, 2002, the Company was required
to adopt Emerging Issues Task Force Number 01-14, Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of-Pocket Expenses Incurred (EITF 01-14), which requires that reimbursements received for out-of-pocket
expenses be classified as revenues and not as cost reductions. Before the effective date of EITF 01-14, the Company netted out-of-pocket reimbursements from customers with the applicable costs. These items include postage, travel, meals and certain
telecommunication costs. Approximately one-half of the Companys total
8
reimbursed expenses are related to rebilled postage costs in the Companys automated mailing services business. EITF 01-14 requires restatement of all periods presented in order to reflect
reimbursed expenses as both revenues and costs. While the adoption of EITF 01-14 has no impact on income from operations or net income, it does reduce total operating margins since both revenues and costs increase by the same amount.

During the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002,
the Company had approximately 12.7 million and 18.7 million outstanding employee stock options, respectively, which are out-of-the-money and therefore excluded from the calculation of the dilutive effect of employee stock options. These stock
options are considered to be out-of-the-money because the option exercise prices are greater than the average share price during the respective nine and three month periods. The dilutive effect of employee stock options is measured by the amount, if
any, that individual stock option exercise prices are less than the average share price during the period.
5. Common Stock Split:
On May 11, 2001, the Companys board of
directors authorized a two-for-one stock split of the Companys common stock. Stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 25, 2001 received one additional share of SunGard stock for every share held on that date. The effective
date for the stock split was June 18, 2001. The number of shares used for purposes of calculating net income per common share and all per-share data prior to June 18, 2001 has been adjusted to reflect the stock split.

6. Comprehensive Income:

7. Operating Segments:
The Companys three operating segments consist of an investment support systems business (ISS), an availability services business
(Availability Services), and a third segment referred to as other businesses. The Companys operating segments are groups of businesses that offer similar products and services. The segments are managed separately since each business requires
different technology and marketing strategies. Effective January 1, 2002, a minor re-alignment of management responsibilities caused a change in segment reporting. A group of businesses that provide general ledger and administration software systems
and services to the public sector, including state and local governments, colleges, universities and school districts, which previously was reported as a part of the ISS segment, is now included in other businesses. This change in segment reporting
has been reflected for all periods presented.
ISS designs, markets and maintains a comprehensive set of
proprietary software applications that are delivered to customers on application-service-provider (ASP) and license bases. The common element of these systems is the automation of the complex transaction processing associated with investment
operations.
Availability Services provides a comprehensive continuum of information availability services for all
major computing platforms, including high-availability infrastructure for business continuity, enabling clients to have around-the-clock access to business-critical information. Availability Services also provides technology and systems management
services for application and data center outsourcing, as well as information availability consulting services and business continuity planning software. Other businesses consist of a group of businesses that provide general ledger and administration
software systems to the public sector, work-flow management systems to healthcare insurance organizations and an automated mailing service.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
INTRODUCTION:
Statements about the outlook of SunGard Data Systems Inc. (the Company) and all other statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q
other than historical facts are forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, actual results may differ materially from expected results. Forward-looking statements
include information about possible or assumed future financial results of the Company and usually contain words such as believes, intends, expects, anticipates, or similar expressions. The Company
derives most of its forward-looking statements from its operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While the Company believes that its assumptions are reasonable, it cautions that there are inherent difficulties
in predicting certain important factors, such as: the effect of the slowdown in the domestic and global economies on information technology spending levels and processing revenues; the overall condition of the financial services industry; the
ramifications of the events of September 11, 2001; the timing and magnitude of software sales; the timing and scope of technological advances, including the development of more alternatives for high-availability services (which may lead to higher
capital expenditures and a higher rate of customers adopting alternative solutions, including internal solutions); the integration and performance of acquired businesses, including the availability services businesses of Comdisco, Inc. (CAS),
acquired on November 15, 2001, and of Guardian iT plc (Guardian), acquired on July 1, 2002; the prospects for future acquisitions; and the ability to attract and retain customers and key personnel. The factors described in this paragraph and other
factors that may affect SunGard, its management or future financial results, as and when applicable, are discussed in SunGards filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001, a
copy of which may be obtained from SunGard without charge.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING
PRONOUNCEMENTS:
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Number 142, Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142), addresses, among other things, how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recorded in the financial statements. Under SFAS 142, as of January 1, 2002,
goodwill is no longer amortized, but rather is tested at least annually for impairment. If goodwill is considered to be impaired, some or all of the goodwill is written off as a charge to operations. At September 30, 2002, the Company has $947.7
million of goodwill ($325.7 million related to the CAS acquisition and $270.1 related to the Guardian acquisition). The Company believes that no impairment of goodwill existed at September 30, 2002.
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company was required to adopt Emerging Issues Task Force Number 01-14, Income Statement
Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of-Pocket Expenses Incurred (EITF 01-14), which requires that reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses be classified as revenues and not as cost reductions. Before the
effective date of EITF 01-14, the Company netted out-of-pocket reimbursements from customers with the applicable costs. These items include postage, travel, meals and certain telecommunication costs. EITF 01-14 requires restatement of all periods
presented in order to reflect reimbursed expenses as both revenues and costs. During the nine months ended
12
September 30, 2002 and 2001, reimbursed expenses totaled $43.6 million and $39.8 million, respectively. Total reimbursed expenses for the full-year 2001 totaled $53.2 million. Approximately
one-half of total reimbursed expenses are related to rebilled postage costs in the Companys automated mailing services business. While the adoption of EITF 01-14 has no impact on income from operations or net income, it does reduce total
operating margins since both revenues and costs increase by the same amount.
RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS:
The following supplemental unaudited income statement information should be read
along with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this report. Effective January 1, 2002, a minor re-alignment of management responsibilities caused a change in segment reporting. A group of businesses that
provide general ledger and administration software systems and services to the public sector, including state and local governments, colleges, universities and school districts, which previously was reported as a part of the investment support
systems (ISS) segment, is now included in other businesses. This change in segment reporting has been reflected for all periods presented (see Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

INCOME FROM OPERATIONS:
The Company sells a significant portion of its products and services to the financial services industry and could be affected directly by
the overall condition of that industry. The Company expects that the consolidation trend in the financial services industry will continue, but it is unable to predict what effect, if any, this trend may have on the Company.
Certain of the Companys ISS businesses derive a significant portion of their revenues from software sales. Since there are inherent
difficulties in predicting the timing and magnitude of software sales, there is the potential for fluctuations in quarterly revenues and income.
ISS is comprised of groups of related businesses that sell software and related services to the financial services industry. Availability Services provides a comprehensive continuum of information
availability services. Historically, ISS and Availability Services, in the aggregate, have usually met or exceeded the Companys expectations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, overall results met expectations due primarily to
the impact of planned cost controls and the integration of CAS into the Company. During the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and for the full-year 2001, overall results did not meet expectations due primarily to the deterioration in the economy
throughout the year and the disruption of normal business patterns caused by the events of September 11, which led to delays in closing software sales and to lost processing revenue, especially when the U.S. financial markets were closed.
The Company expects that the full-year 2002 operating margin will be somewhat higher than the full-year 2001
operating margin before merger costs and one-time items in both years. The most important factors affecting the operating margin are: the effect of the continued economic slowdown on IT spending levels and processing revenues; the ramifications of
the events of September 11; the overall condition of the financial services industry; the timing and magnitude of software license sales; the integration and performance of acquired businesses; the rate and value of new contract signings and
renewals; the level of product development spending; and the timing and magnitude of equipment and facilities expenditures.
Investment Support Systems (ISS):
The ISS operating margin is 22.8% and 21.8% for the nine
and three month periods ended September 30, 2002, compared to 20.5% and 19.9% during the same periods in 2001, respectively. Despite a decline in ISS software license fees of $21.9 million and $12.2 million during the nine and three months ended
September 30, 2002 compared to the same periods in 2001, overall ISS operating margins were higher in 2002 compared to 2001 due primarily to planned cost controls implemented throughout 2001 and 2002 in response to slowing revenue growth.
The most important factors affecting the ISS operating margin are the impact of the economic slowdown on IT
spending levels and processing revenues, the overall condition of the financial services industry, the timing and magnitude of software license sales, the operating margins of recently acquired businesses and the level of product development
spending.
14
Availability Services:
The Availability Services operating margin is 23.4% and 25.3% during the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002, compared
to 29.6% and 30.6% during the same periods in 2001, respectively. The lower operating margins in 2002 are due to the effect of the significantly lower operating margins of CAS and Guardian and, to a lesser extent, higher costs resulting from
expansion of the Companys facilities in 2001. The Company expects that the Availability Services operating margin will decline during the fourth quarter of 2002 as compared with the fourth quarter of 2001 as a result of the significantly lower
operating margins of the Guardian business, acquired on July 1, 2002.
The most important factors affecting the
Availability Services operating margin are the rate of integration of CAS and Guardian, the rate and value of new contract signings and renewals, the timing and magnitude of equipment and facilities expenditures and the benefit derived from the
general industry trend of lower per-unit costs for technology. Compared to the Companys historical Availability Services customer base, the acquired CAS customer base has a greater concentration of revenue in a smaller number of accounts and a
shorter average remaining contract term. In addition, while the acquired Guardian customer base has average revenue per customer that is similar to the Companys historical Availability Services customer base, the acquired Guardian customer
base has a shorter average remaining contract term. Consequently, the amount and percentage of annual Availability Services revenue that is subject to renewal has significantly increased during the past year. These factors result in increased
competition, especially for the largest accounts, which could intensify pricing pressures (particularly when renewing or extending customer contracts) and result in lower revenues and operating margins.
REVENUES:
Total revenues for the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002 increased $485.4 million, or 35%, and $183.3 million, or 38%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2001. Excluding acquired businesses, revenues
increased approximately 1.5% during the third quarter, compared to an increase of approximately 4% during the three month period ended September 30, 2001. The lower rate of revenue growth during the three month period ended September 30, 2002
compared to the same period in 2001 is due primarily to the impact of the continued economic slowdown on IT spending levels and processing revenues.
Recurring revenues, defined as revenues from processing services, availability services, professional services, software maintenance, software support, and software and hardware rentals, increased 41%
during the nine months ended September 30, 2002, to $1.7 billion, representing 91% of total revenues, compared to $1.2 billion, or 87% of total revenues, during the same period in 2001. The increase in 2002 is due primarily to revenues from acquired
businesses and an increase in revenues from Availability Services, offset in part by a decrease in revenues from brokerage and execution systems.
Professional services revenues for the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002 are $268.8 million and $85.9 million, respectively, compared to $251.6 million and $82.0 million during the
same periods in 2001, respectively. The increase in 2002 is due primarily to increases in revenues from acquired businesses and Availability Services, offset in part by a decrease in professional services revenues
15
in most ISS businesses.
Nonrecurring revenues, defined as
revenues from software licenses and resales of third-party software and hardware, are $134.6 million and $39.7 million during the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002, compared to $147.2 million and $51.6 million during the same
periods in 2001, respectively. This includes software license revenues of $104.5 million and $31.5 million during the nine and three months ended September 30, 2002, compared to $125.3 million and $44.3 million during the same periods in 2001,
respectively. The lower software license revenues in 2002 are due primarily to the continued economic slowdown and a decrease in IT spending.
Investment Support Systems:
ISS revenues increased $49.2
million and $9.6 million, or 5% and 3%, during the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002, compared to the same periods in 2001. Excluding acquired businesses, ISS revenues declined approximately 1.5% during the three month period
ended September 30, 2002, compared to an increase of approximately 2% in the three month period ended September 30, 2001. The lower rate of revenue growth during 2002 compared to 2001 is due primarily to the impact of the continued economic slowdown
on IT spending levels and processing revenues, the overall condition of the financial services industry and the timing and magnitude of software license sales. In particular, a decline in revenues from brokerage and execution systems was offset in
part by an increase in revenues from investment management systems, with other ISS businesses reporting relatively flat revenue.
During the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002, recurring ISS revenues increased $69.7 million and $22.3 million, respectively, or 8% in each period, while nonrecurring ISS revenues decreased $20.5 million, or 17%,
and $12.7 million, or 31%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2001. The increase in recurring ISS revenues is due primarily to acquired businesses and an increase in revenues from investment management systems. This increase is partially
offset by lower recurring revenues from brokerage and execution systems. The decrease in nonrecurring ISS revenues is due primarily to the impact of the continued economic slowdown on IT spending and processing revenues, resulting in a decrease in
software license revenues.
Availability Services:
Availability Services revenues increased $421.3 million, or 124%, and $168.5 million, or 145%, during the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002,
compared with the same periods in 2001. The increase in Availability Services revenues is due primarily to revenues resulting from the acquisitions of CAS and Guardian, new contract signings and renewals, continued growth in demand for midrange
platforms, network services and work-group recovery, and increases in professional services as customers review and upgrade business continuity plans as a result of September 11, offset in part by the impact of a general decline in IT spending
levels and revenues lost due to expiration and renegotiation of certain CAS contracts. Excluding acquired businesses, Availability Services revenues increased approximately 8% during the third quarter of 2002, compared to approximately 12% in the
third quarter of 2001. The slowing rate of revenue growth is due primarily to the continued economic slowdown and pricing pressures caused by, among other factors, the development of more alternatives for high-availability services.
The CAS acquisition approximately doubled the size of the Availability Services business. On July
16
1, 2002, the Company completed its previously announced offer to acquire the shares of Guardian (see Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Other Businesses:
The Companys remaining businesses provide general ledger and administration software systems to the public sector, work-flow management systems to healthcare insurance organizations and an automated mailing service.
Revenues from these businesses increased $11.1 million, or 14%, and $2.8 million, or 10%, during the nine and three months ended September 30, 2002, compared to the same periods in 2001. The increase is due primarily to an increase in revenues from
the public sector and automated mailing services businesses.
COSTS AND EXPENSES:
Cost of sales and direct operating expenses for the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002
increased $238.3 million, or 41%, and $100.3 million, or 52%, compared to the same periods in 2001. The increase is due primarily to acquired businesses, partially offset by planned cost controls.
Sales, marketing and administration expenses for the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002 increased $69.1 million, or
24%, and $18.4 million, or 19%, compared to the same periods in 2001. The increase is due primarily to acquired businesses, partially offset by planned cost controls.
Product development expenses for the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002 decreased $10.6 million, or 8%, and $8.2 million, or 18%, compared to the same
periods in 2001. Total product development expenses as a percentage of total ISS revenues for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2002 were 12% and 11%, respectively, compared to 14% during the same periods in 2001. The decrease is due
primarily to a combination of approximately $3.3 million of additional software development costs that were capitalized during the nine month period ended September 30, 2002 and planned cost controls, offset in part by acquired businesses. The
increases in capitalized development costs are due to straight-through-processing development initiatives.
Gross
product development costs capitalized during the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002 are $12.0 million and $3.8 million, compared to $8.7 million and $3.4 million during the same periods in 2001, respectively. Amortization of
previously capitalized development costs, included in depreciation and amortization, are $5.0 million and $1.6 million in the nine and three months ended September 30, 2002, compared to $4.9 million and $1.7 million during the same periods in 2001,
respectively, resulting in net capitalized development costs of $7.0 million and $2.2 million during the nine and three months ended September 30, 2002, compared to $3.8 million and $1.7 million during the same periods in 2001, respectively.
Depreciation and amortization for the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2002 increased $75.9
million, or 105%, and $27.7 million, or 108%, compared to the same periods in 2001. The increase is due primarily to the acquisitions of CAS and Guardian.
17
Amortization of all acquisition-related intangible assets for the nine and three
month periods ended September 30, 2002 are $47.8 million and $16.0 million, respectively ($0.10 and $0.03 per share, respectively), compared to $48.0 million and $16.6 million ($0.12 and $0.04 per diluted share) during the same periods in 2001,
respectively. The small decline in total expenses is due to the implementation of SFAS 142, which required amortization of goodwill to cease as of January 1, 2002, offset in part by recently acquired businesses and, in the second quarter of 2002,
$3.4 million in expense associated with the partial impairment of a software product acquired in 1999. Amortization of goodwill for the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2001 totaled $16.0 million and $5.7 million ($0.05 and $0.02 per
diluted share), respectively.
As explained in Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, during the
nine and three months ended September 30, 2002, the Company recorded merger costs of $12.2 million and $10.5 million, respectively, ($0.03 and $0.02 per diluted share, respectively), as compared to $1.8 million ($0.01 per diluted share) during the
nine months ended September 30, 2001. There were no merger costs recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2001. The 2002 merger costs are related to the acquisitions of Guardian, CAS and Brut LLC (Brut) and include estimated costs
related to shut-down of certain facilities, severance, and the Companys share of accounting, investment banking and legal fees incurred by Guardian and Brut. Merger costs incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 were related to
an acquisition accounted for as a pooling of interests, partially offset by a break-up fee paid to the Company related to an acquisition not completed, net of related costs incurred. In addition, during the second quarter of 2002, the Company
recorded other income of $0.6 million, comprised of a $2.9 million gain on currency purchases made in late June 2002 that were needed for the acquisition of Guardian on July 1, 2002, offset in part by $2.3 million of expense related to the
Companys 25% interest in Guardians loss for May and June of 2002.
Interest income for the nine and
three month periods ended September 30, 2002 decreased to $6.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively, compared to $20.6 million and $5.9 million in the same periods in 2001. Interest expense for the nine and three month periods ended September 30,
2002 increased to $10.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively, compared to $1.7 million and $0.4 million in the same periods in 2001. The decrease in interest income and the increase in interest expense are due primarily to cash paid and debt
incurred in connection with the acquisition of CAS and cash paid in connection with the acquisition of Guardian. Interest income also declined due to lower interest rates.
The Companys effective income tax rate is 39.9% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2002, compared to 40.3% during the nine months ended September 30, 2001.
The lower rate in 2002 is due primarily to the cessation of amortization of nondeductible goodwill and nondeductible merger costs in 2001, offset in part by lower tax-free interest income and a $2.3 million after-tax loss, included in other income,
associated with the Companys 25% interest in Guardians loss for May and June of 2002. Excluding the effect of Guardian and nondeductible merger costs, the Companys effective income tax rate for the nine and three months ended
September 30, 2002 is 39.5%.
18
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
At September 30, 2002, cash and equivalents are $335.3 million, a decrease of $61.0 million from December 31,
2001. Cash flow from operations increased $226.0 million, reaching $577.9 million during the first nine months of 2002. At September 30, 2002, the Company has $13.7 million of short-term debt and $214.5 million of long-term debt, while
stockholders equity is $2.1 billion. The Company borrowed $450.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2001 in connection with the CAS acquisition and repaid a net $250.0 million during the first nine months of 2002. Subsequent to September 30,
2002, the Company repaid an additional $25.0 million of debt, leaving a balance of $175.0 million, which is payable in January 2005 or earlier at the Companys option. The Company expects the remaining $175.0 million will be outstanding at
least through December 31, 2002. In addition, the Company used a total of approximately $209.4 million of cash (net of cash acquired) for acquisitions during 2002.
The Companys remaining commitments consist primarily of operating leases for computer equipment and facilities, with total remaining commitments of approximately
$396.0 million at December 31, 2001, of which approximately $91.0 million will be paid in 2002. In addition, the acquisition of Guardian resulted in approximately $214.4 million of additional future operating lease commitments. At September 30,
2002, the Company has a total of up to $109.2 million which could be paid as additional consideration through January 2005, contingent upon the operating performance of certain acquired businesses.
The Company expects that its existing cash resources and cash generated from operations for the foreseeable future will be sufficient to
meet its operating requirements, debt repayments, contingent payments in connection with business acquisitions and ordinary capital spending needs. The Company has a revolving credit agreement with currently available capacity to borrow consisting
of a $150.0 million short-term facility that expires in January 2003 unless renewed, and a $175.0 million long-term facility that expires in January 2005. The Company believes that it has the ability to finance additional capital needs by securing
additional credit or issuing equity on terms acceptable to the Company.
Item 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK:
The Company has rarely used derivative financial instruments to manage risk exposures and has never used derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative
purposes. The Company invests available cash in short-term, highly liquid financial instruments, with a substantial portion of such investments having initial maturities of three months or less, and, in connection with the acquisitions of CAS and
Guardian, the Company borrowed cash under the terms of its variable-rate credit facility. While changes in interest rates could decrease the Companys interest income or increase its interest expense, the Company does not believe that it has a
material exposure to changes in interest rates. Based on the Companys current borrowings under its variable-rate credit facility of $175.0 million, a 1% change in the Companys borrowing rate would increase annual interest expense related
to the credit facility by $1.75 million.
Historically, approximately 20% of the Companys revenues came from
sales to customers located outside of the United States, with approximately one-half of those revenues denominated in U.S. dollars.
19
The Company has generally matched local currency revenues with local currency costs for its foreign operations. As a result of the July 1, 2002 acquisition of Guardian, approximately 25% of the
Companys annualized revenues will come from sales to customers outside of the United States, with approximately 25% of those revenues denominated in U.S. dollars. The majority of the foreign denominated revenues are denominated in the British
pound and the Euro. The Company will continue to monitor its exposure to foreign exchange rates as a result of its recent acquisitions and ongoing changes in its operations.
Item 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including the Companys principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company conducted an
evaluation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-14(c) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), within 90 days of the filing date of this report.
Based on their evaluation, the Companys principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
(b) There have been no significant changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in the
Companys internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their most recent evaluation.
