CYSIVE, INC.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Basis of presentation

     The accompanying financial statements of Cysive, Inc. (“Cysive” or the “Company”) are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation as of the dates and for the periods presented. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Consequently, these financial statements do not include all of the disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the period ended December 31, 2001, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 20, 2002. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

     Certain amounts in the financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current quarter presentation.

2. Revenue recognition

     The Company licenses software and provides services including software development, integration, consulting, training, and maintenance, which consists of product support services and product updates. When the Company enters into a software license agreement that requires the Company to provide significant development, integration or customization of software, the software license and related services revenues are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method under contract accounting principles in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement of Position 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts". Software license revenue for software license agreements not requiring significant development, integration or customization of software is recognized in accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”, as amended. Revenue from maintenance agreements is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance agreement, which is typically one year. Services revenue from other development, consulting or training agreements is recognized as the services are performed.

3. Software development costs

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed” requires the capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility. Based on the Company’s product development process, technological feasibility is established upon the completion of a working model. Costs incurred by the Company between the completion of the working model and the point at which the product is ready for general release have been insignificant. Accordingly, the Company has charged all such costs to research and development expense in the period incurred.

4. Investments

     Investments are generally comprised of variable rate securities that provide for optional or effective maturity dates within twelve months and the contractual maturities are generally greater than twelve months. Investments with effective maturity dates of one year or less at the balance sheet date are

-5-


 

classified as current and investments with effective maturity dates of more than one year are classified as non-current. There may be significant changes on a quarterly basis in the amounts classified as current or non-current based on the maturity date of the particular investments at the balance sheet dates.

     The Company classifies its investments as available-for-sale. Investments in securities that are classified as available-for-sale and have readily determinable fair values are measured at fair market value in the balance sheets. Any unrealized gains or losses are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, if deemed material. Realized gains and losses and declines in market value judged to be other than temporary are included in investment income. Interest and dividends are included in investment income.

5. Deferred revenues

     Deferred revenues are comprised of deferrals for license fees, maintenance and services billed to customers in advance of the related revenue recognition.

6. Accrued restructuring

     During the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company took specific actions to reduce its overall cost structure in anticipation of slower near-term growth rates. The Company recorded a $4.7 million pre-tax restructuring charge in 2000 in order to better align its overall cost structure and organization with planned revenue levels. The restructuring charge primarily related to 1) the elimination of certain non-technical support roles, resulting in severance costs; 2) the closing of a satellite office, resulting in the write-down of assets; and 3) the accrual for professional fees related to the office closing or potential claims from severed employees. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company paid approximately $85,000 and $179,000, respectively, related to rent expense. As of June 30, 2002, estimated amounts remaining to be paid total $1.0 million, all are for rents payable through August 2005.

     On March 30, 2001, in anticipation of a continued declining revenue base, the Company announced an additional restructuring plan that included the termination of 95 employees consisting of engineering, recruiting, sales and general and administrative employees. As a result, approximately $1.7 million in severance-related costs was recorded as a pre-tax restructuring expense in the first quarter of 2001. In the third quarter of 2001, the Company increased this reserve by $122,000 due to actual payments of the severances exceeding the Company’s original estimate. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had made all payments related to this restructuring.

     During the third quarter of 2001, the Company approved a restructuring plan to include the termination of an additional 19 software engineers and three administrative employees. As a result, $225,000 in severance-related costs was recorded as a pre-tax restructuring expense. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had made all payments related to this restructuring.

     During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company approved a restructuring plan to terminate an additional 65 employees, consisting of engineering, sales and general and administrative employees. As a result, $1.3 million in severance-related costs was recorded as a pre-tax restructuring expense. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had paid approximately $1.2 million in severance-related payments related to this restructuring. As of June 30, 2002, estimated amounts remaining to be paid total $78,000, which will be paid by October 2002.

-6-


 

7. Common stock

     Based on the closing price of $2.45 per share for the Company’s common stock on Friday, June 28, 2002, and using the treasury stock method for determining the amount of common stock equivalents, the number of common stock equivalent shares related to stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2002 was 4,477,427.

8. Treasury stock

     In June 2002, the Company repurchased 75,000 shares of its own common stock at prices ranging from $2.30 to $2.35 per share. In January 2002, the Company repurchased 65,926 shares of its own common stock for $3.29 per share. The Company accounted for these transactions under the par-value method.

9. Stock compensation expense

     In 1999, prior to its initial public offering, the Company granted stock options to purchase 6,007,500 shares of common stock at exercise prices deemed below fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. In 2000, the Company granted non-qualified stock options to purchase shares of common stock at a 15% discount from the fair market value. The Company recorded deferred stock compensation for the difference between the grant price and fair market value of the options granted. The deferred stock compensation is amortized ratably on a quarterly basis over the period in which the remaining options vest. Due to the restructuring events noted above, in 2001, the Company was able to reverse previously expensed stock compensation that had been recorded in previous periods relating to certain options that were cancelled as a result of employee terminations.

     During the first quarter of 2002, the Company cancelled certain employee-held stock options. This cancellation resulted in an acceleration of compensation expense related to the value of these options and the Company recognized $2,208,000 of expense related to these cancellations. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company recognized $1,610,000 of stock compensation expense related to outstanding stock options that were issued with grant prices below fair market value.

     In January 2002, the Company purchased 65,926 shares of its own common stock from employees. Of these, 63,676 shares were purchased from employees within six months of issuance as a result of stock option exercises. Accordingly, the Company recognized stock compensation expense of $132,000 related to these purchases.

     In January 2001, the Company issued 225,000 restricted shares of common stock as the fourth quarter bonus for 2000. These shares vested one year from the date of grant. The Company recorded stock compensation expense in the fourth quarter of 2000 relating to this bonus. In June 2001, an additional 3,000 shares of restricted stock were issued. Due to the restructuring and the departure of certain employees in 2001, the Company cancelled 75,230 of these shares and reversed the related stock compensation expense previously recorded in the fourth quarter of 2000. The Company adjusted stock compensation expense for changes in the fair market value of the stock during each fiscal quarter. During the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Company’s stock compensation expense related to the restricted stock grants was $40,000. As the restrictions on these stock grants lapsed in January 2001, there will be no further recognition of expense related to these shares.

-7-


 

10. Loss per share

       The Company presents basic and diluted loss per share as one line item. Basic and diluted loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

11. Comprehensive loss

       Comprehensive loss includes net loss and unrealized gains and losses on investments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, comprehensive loss was $4.8 million and $13.9 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, comprehensive loss was $3.2 million and $9.4 million, respectively.

12. Subsequent events

       On August 8, 2002, the Company took specific actions to focus its resources on product sales and development and to reduce its overall cost structure. Cysive announced that it expects to eliminate approximately 48 positions by October 1, 2002, and that it intends to reevaluate and restructure the lease obligations for several of its offices. As a result, the Company expects to record a pretax restructuring charge of up to $6 million for severance, rent expense and other associated costs in the third quarter of 2002.

       In July 2002, the Company repurchased approximately 1.1 million shares of its own common stock on the open market for approximately $2.5 million.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

     The following discussion and analysis compares the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 to the corresponding period ended June 30, 2001 for Cysive and should be read together with our financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and with our December 31, 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 20, 2002.

     Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including information with respect to the Company’s future business plans, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from a forward-looking statement. There are a number of important factors that could cause the results of the Company to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, our ability to implement our new business model transitioning from a service-based solution to a product-based solution; our ability to manage growth and attract and retain highly trained and experienced employees; the loss of or a significant reduction in the work performed for any of our largest customers; changes in the demand for professional Internet services; increased competition in the Internet and electronic business industry; and our ability to respond to new technological advances in the Internet and software products industry. Additional information concerning these and other risks and uncertainties is contained from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, until the effective date of our future reports required by applicable securities laws.

Overview

     Cysive, Inc. is a provider of Interaction Server technology that allows enterprise customers to communicate and interact with customers, partners and employees over multiple communications channels. Historically, all of our revenues have resulted from the delivery of custom software and services solutions to our customers. Due to increasing competition, declining margins, and business volatility, in 2001 we began the transition of our business model from a software engineering services model to a software products and engineering services model. Accordingly, during 2001 we developed the Cysive Cymbio Interaction Server™, an integrated, multi-channel Web Services software platform. Cysive Cymbio™ is an integrated environment for interactions between enterprise systems and multiple channels such as Web browsers, rich client applications, mobile phones, PDAs, and voice. Such interactions can be simple requests for information, or complex, multi-step business processes that touch many back office systems and have transactional implications. Cysive Cymbio supports enterprise integration through optimized Web Services interfaces; manages access to enterprise interactions from multiple connected and disconnected devices; and hosts adaptive interaction scenarios, business rules, and events. We introduced Cysive Cymbio in the fourth quarter of 2001.

     We believe that after spending several years, and expending significant resources implementing numerous non-integrated and often incompatible software applications, application integration, access, and business process management remain key challenges for enterprises. We also believe enterprises are moving to a multi-channel approach using Web, wireless, voice and Web services to interact with their

-9-


 

employees, customers, suppliers, partners and distributors. Technology advances, such as Cysive Cymbio, which incorporates our patent-pending Follow-On™ technology for asynchronous management of business context, enable companies to integrate complex interactions between enterprise applications and channels faster and more effectively

     Since commencing operations in 1994, we have used advanced Internet technologies to build our customers’ software systems. Given our technology expertise, we targeted corporate customers who require highly complex systems to meet their growth strategies. For example, our software engineers, in collaboration with Cisco Systems, Inc. (Cisco), built Cisco’s Internetworking Products Center, or IPC, one of the world’s largest Internet commerce sites. In addition to Cisco, we have built advanced business systems for customers including Chrysler Corporation, Equifax Secure, Inc., First Union Corporation, Philips Medical Systems, N.A., Schneider Logistics, Inc., Tribune Interactive, Inc., and UUNet Technologies, Inc. We designed software systems that handled high volumes of customer transactions, operated reliably 24 hours per day, seven days per week and expanded to meet the growth requirements of large-scale businesses that were broadening the methods they used to communicate and process information with internal and external users.

     Prior to 1997, we built large scale, distributed systems using approaches and technologies that are the foundations for current Internet applications. In late 1996 and early 1997, our technology group evaluated and developed software prototypes using key Internet technologies such as Java, XML and CORBA. After successfully deploying our first e-business system in mid-1997, we began to target customers who were making significant investments in their e-business applications. As a result, there was a fundamental shift in our business strategy away from general-purpose distributed systems to customized e-business applications. As part of this strategy, in the fourth quarter of 1997 and the first half of 1998, we spent considerable resources to accomplish two specific goals. Our first goal was to train all of our software engineers with advanced Internet technologies that had been researched and prototyped by our technology group. Our second goal was to deploy a direct sales force capable of selling e-business applications. These initiatives significantly impacted our results of operations for these three quarters. Specifically, the generation of a sales pipeline of e-business applications and the deployment of our sales force affected our revenues and sales and marketing expenses. In addition, the completion of two of our largest distributed systems combined with the extensive training of our software engineers caused our utilization rates and gross margins to decline during these quarters. These investments positioned us to become a leading e-business engineering firm during the period from the third quarter of 1998 to the second quarter of 2000.

     In the second half of 2000, we identified an emerging need for a technology solution as customers required an integrated solution for their Web, wireless and voice-activated systems. As a result, we began focusing our non-utilized software engineers on solving these complex development and integration issues. We formed our Product Engineering Group during 2001, culminating in the release of our first product, Cysive Cymbio, in October 2001. We anticipate that this expansion of our business model will enable us to develop new opportunities, creating additional future revenue streams.

     To date, we have derived principally all of our revenues from software engineering services that have been provided primarily on a time and materials basis. Typically, revenues have been recognized and billed monthly by multiplying the number of hours expended by our software engineers in the performance of the contract by the established billing rates. Our customers have typically reimbursed us for direct expenses allocated to a project such as airfare, lodging and meals. Consequently, these direct reimbursements are excluded from revenues.

     With the introduction of Cysive Cymbio, we expect that revenues will also include software license fees, royalties and maintenance components. We anticipate that revenues from Cysive Cymbio

sales and related consulting services will generally be recognized using contract accounting principles due to the significant customization efforts required to build new applications using Cysive Cymbio as an Interaction Server platform, and/or to integrate Cysive Cymbio with legacy applications and data sources. Additionally, we expect that for the near future our migration to a software products and engineering services business model will result in significantly higher sales and marketing expense and research and development expense, expressed as a percentage of sales, than we have experienced in the past. Our gross margins may also be affected depending on the relative mix between software license and services revenues.

     During the three months ended June 30, 2002, we executed one contract for Cysive Cymbio. This contract was for a combination of license fees and maintenance and support. As of June 30, 2002, a portion of the license fees and maintenance and support amounts related to this contract was included in deferred revenues.

     Our financial results may fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter based on factors such as the number of product sales, projects and royalties, the amount and timing of our customers’ expenditures, employee utilization rates, hourly billing rates and general economic conditions. Revenues from a few large customers may constitute a significant portion of our total revenues in a particular quarter or year. For example, for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, our five largest customers represented 96.5% and 84.2% of our revenues, respectively. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, our five largest customers represented 85.6% and 75.3% of our revenues, respectively.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2002 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2001

     Revenues. Total revenues decreased $3.8 million, or 75.1%, to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. Services revenues decreased $3.9 million, or 76.9%, to $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease in services revenues was due to reduced demand for custom application development and also reflects our emphasis on software license sales in our marketing and sales efforts. The number of active customers declined to eight for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 16 for the same period in 2001. Services revenues represented 92.5% and 100% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Software license revenues were $96,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and represented 7.5% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002. There were no revenues generated from software licenses for the three months ended June 30, 2001.

     Direct Costs. Direct costs decreased $2.2 million, or 67.7%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. Direct costs from services decreased $2.3 million, or 68.8%, to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from

-12-


 

$3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease in direct costs from services was primarily due to a lower number of software engineers employed in the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. As a percentage of services revenues, direct costs from services increased to 88.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 65.2% for the same period in 2001. Direct costs from software licenses were $38,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and represented third party technology license fees and product packaging. As a percentage of software license revenues, direct costs from software licenses were 39.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2002. There were no direct costs from software licenses for the three months ended June 30, 2001.

     Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased $1.6 million, or 89.0%, to a gross profit of $198,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from a gross profit of $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. The gross margin decreased to a gross margin of 15.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from a gross margin of 34.8% for the same period in 2001 due primarily to lower revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001.

     Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased $546,000, or 27.1%, to $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily due to an increase in telemarketing and public relations expense related to promoting the Company’s product. As a percentage of revenues, sales and marketing expenses increased to 199.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 39.2% for the same period in 2001.

     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased $467,000, or 14.7%, to $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the decrease in office and equipment expense, meeting costs and support staff costs resulting from our lower employee headcount. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses increased to 210.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 61.6% for the same period in 2001. This increase was primarily due to the decrease in our revenues discussed above.

     Research and Development. Research and development costs decreased $170,000, or 16.1%, to $883,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. These costs relate to the salaries and other costs of our product engineering team which has been developing our product. This decrease in research and development costs was primarily due to the lower number of product engineers included in the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. As a percentage of revenues, research and development costs increased to 68.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 20.5% for the same period in 2001.

     Stock Compensation. We incurred $776,000 in stock compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2002, which was comparable to $747,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001.

     Operating Loss. Operating loss increased $1.5 million, or 29.5%, to an operating loss of $6.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from an operating loss of $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. As a result of the above factors, the operating loss margin increased to 524.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from an operating loss margin of 101.0% for the same period in 2001, principally reflecting the significant decline in revenues between periods.

     Investment Income, Net. Investment income, net, decreased $933,000 to $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to lower interest income earned from cash and investments as a result of a combination of lower invested capital and lower interest rates between periods.

-13-


 

     Net Loss. Net loss increased $2.4 million to a net loss of $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from a net loss of $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. As a result of the above factors, the net loss margin increased to a net loss margin of 431.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from a net loss margin of 59.6% for the same period in 2001, principally reflecting the significant decline in revenues between periods.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2001

     Revenues. Total revenues decreased $8.0 million, or 75.1%, to $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $10.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Services revenues decreased $8.1 million, or 76.0%, to $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $10.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease in services revenues was due to reduced demand for custom application development and also reflects our emphasis on software license sales in our marketing and sales efforts. The number of active customers declined to 13 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from 20 for the same period in 2001. Services revenues represented 96.3% and 100% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Software license revenues were $97,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and represented 3.7% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002. There were no revenues generated from software licenses for the six months ended June 30, 2001.

     Direct Costs. Direct costs decreased $6.8 million, or 74.0%, to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Direct costs from services decreased $6.9 million, or 74.8%, to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease in direct costs from services was primarily due to a lower number of software engineers employed in the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. As a percentage of services revenues, direct costs from services increased to 90.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from 86.3% for the same period in 2001. Direct costs from software licenses were $68,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and represented third party technology license fees and product packaging. As a percentage of software license revenues, direct costs from software licenses were 70.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2002. There were no direct costs from software licenses for the six months ended June 30, 2001.

     Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased $1.2 million, or 82.0%, to a gross profit of $263,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from a gross profit of $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The gross margin decreased to a gross margin of 9.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from a gross margin of 13.7% for the same period in 2001 due primarily to lower revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001.

     Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased $1.6 million, or 40.0%, to $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily due to an increase in telemarketing and public relations expense related to promoting the Company’s product. As a percentage of revenues, sales and marketing expenses increased to 208.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from 37.0% for the same period in 2001.

     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased $1.9 million, or 25.4%, to $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the decrease in office and equipment expense, meeting costs and support staff costs resulting from our lower employee headcount. Additionally, there were decreases in telephone and facilities costs. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses increased to 208.1% for the six months ended June 30,

-14-


 

2002 from 69.4% for the same period in 2001. This increase was primarily due to the decrease in our revenues discussed above.

     Research and Development. Research and development costs increased $8,000, or 0.5%, to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $1.7 million for the six months ended June 31, 2001. These costs relate to the salaries and other costs of our product engineering team which has been developing our product. As a percentage of revenues, research and development costs increased to 62.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from 15.6% for the same period in 2001.

     Stock Compensation. We incurred $4.0 million in stock compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This increase was primarily the result of recognizing, on an accelerated basis, $2.0 million of expense related to the cancellation of certain officer and employee-held stock options during the first quarter of 2002. Additionally, the prior-year expense reflected the impacts of a decline in price of the Company’s stock during the first half of 2001, and the cancellation of certain restricted shares of stock and certain stock options as a result of employee terminations.

     Restructuring. In the six months ended June 30, 2001, we recorded $1.7 million in restructuring related to severance costs resulting from a reduction in technical, recruiting, sales and general and administrative personnel.

     Operating Loss. Operating loss increased $2.0 million, or 14.4%, to an operating loss of $16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from an operating loss of $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. As a result of the above factors, the operating loss margin increased to 618.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from an operating loss margin of 134.5% for the same period in 2001, principally reflecting the significant decline in revenues between periods.

     Investment Income, Net. Investment income, net, decreased $1.9 million to $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to lower interest income earned from cash and investments as a result of a combination of lower invested capital and lower interest rates between periods.

     Net Loss. Net loss increased $4.0 million to a net loss of $13.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from a net loss of $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. As a result of the above factors, the net loss margin increased to a net loss margin of 519.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from a net loss margin of 92.1% for the same period in 2001, principally reflecting the significant decline in revenues between periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Cash and cash equivalents were $3.3 million at June 30, 2002 and $1.5 million at December 31, 2001. Investments were $138.8 million at June 30, 2002 and $149.8 million at December 31, 2001. Net cash used in operating activities was $9.1 million and $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Capital expenditures of $25,000 and $951,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, were used primarily for computer equipment, office equipment and leasehold improvements.

     In June 2002, the Company repurchased 75,000 shares of its own common stock at prices ranging from $2.30 to $2.35 per share. In January 2002, the Company repurchased 65,926 shares of its own common stock for $3.29 per share. The Company accounted for these transactions under the par-value method.

     The Company anticipates that its existing sources of liquidity should be adequate to fund its currently anticipated cash needs through at least the next 18 months. To the extent the Company is unable to fund its operations from cash flows, it may need to obtain financing from external sources in the form of either additional equity or indebtedness. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available at all, or that, if available, the financing will be obtainable on favorable terms.

Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results

     If any of the events described below actually occur, our business, financial condition, or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially including those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including those set forth in the following risk factors and elsewhere in, or incorporated by reference into, this Form 10-Q.

We expect to continue to incur significant losses at least through the end of the second quarter of 2003.

     Since the third quarter of fiscal 2000, we have incurred losses. We incurred cumulative net losses of $52.3 million from the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2000 through the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2002. We expect losses to continue through at least the second quarter of 2003. However, there can be no assurance that we will be profitable thereafter. If we do achieve profitability, we cannot assure you that we will be able to sustain or improve upon it on a quarterly or annual basis for future periods.

We are implementing a new business model that is evolving and unproven as we migrate from offering a software engineering services model to a software products and engineering services model.

     We decided at the beginning of 2001 to expand our business strategy from a software engineering services model to a software products and engineering services model. Accordingly, our business model is new and unproven and we will need to continue to develop it as we implement our new business strategy. Our ability to generate significant revenues with our new business model will depend, in large part, on our ability to successfully develop our software solutions and to effectively market them to existing and potential clients. We intend to continue to develop our business model as the demand for our software solutions evolves. We expect that our financial model and results of operations may change if we are successful in migrating from a software engineering services model to a software products and engineering services model. We do not have sufficient experience with the sale and support of our products, nor can we be certain about the relative mix between products and services, to determine what effects, if any, such migration may have on our financial model and results of operations. Our new business strategy may not be successful or as successful as we anticipate and we may need to revise our business model.

During the six months ended June 30, 2002, we derived 85.6% of our revenues from our five largest customers, and we expect to continue to rely on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our revenues; as a result, the loss of or a significant reduction in the work performed for any of them could result in reduced revenues and earnings.

     We currently derive and expect to continue to derive a significant portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers. As a result, the loss of or significant reduction in the work performed for any significant customer could reduce our revenues. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, our five largest customers represented 85.6% of our revenues: Manheim Auctions, 33.1%; Jeppesen Sanderson, Inc., 16.9%; Charles Machine Works, Inc., 16.8%; Philips Medical Systems, N.A., 13.1%; and

-16-


 

Manugistics Group, Inc., 5.7%. The volume of work that we perform for a specific customer is likely to vary from period to period, and a significant customer in one period may not use our services in a subsequent period. In addition, a failure to collect a large account receivable from any of these customers could significantly reduce our assets and profitability.

Our quarterly revenues and operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly, causing our stock price to decline.

     Our quarterly revenues and operating results have varied in the past and are likely to vary significantly from quarter to quarter. This fluctuation may cause our operating results to be below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, and the price of our stock may fall. Factors that could cause quarterly fluctuations include:

    our level of product sales;
 
    the introduction of new products or services or changes in pricing policies by us or our competitors;
 
    the loss of a significant customer or project;
 
    financial difficulty encountered by a significant customer;
 
    our employee utilization rate, including our ability to transition employees quickly from completed or terminated projects to new projects;
 
    our ability to manage costs, including employee costs and support services costs; and
 
    costs related to the opening, expansion or closing of our offices.

     In any given quarter, most of our revenues have been attributable to a limited number of customers and we expect this to continue. As a result, the cancellation or deferral of even a small number of projects in a particular quarter could significantly reduce our revenues, which would hurt our quarterly financial performance. In addition, a substantial portion of our costs are relatively fixed and based upon anticipated revenues. A failure to book an expected order in a given quarter or the need to provide training to our employees on new technologies would not be offset by a corresponding reduction in costs and could adversely affect our operating results. As a result of these factors, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our revenues and operating results are not necessarily meaningful.

We may not be able to enhance our existing products or develop or acquire new products, which could adversely affect our business.

     We believe that our success will depend, in part, on our ability to enhance existing products and develop new products that meet the needs of a rapidly evolving marketplace and increasingly sophisticated and demanding customers. However, enhancement and development of products and services is a complex process involving several risks. Hiring and retaining highly qualified technical employees is critical to the success of our development efforts, and we face intense competition for these employees. Launches of products and services can be delayed for a variety of reasons, including the typically long development and testing periods. Further, new or improved products and services may also have “bugs” that hinder performance, or third party products we incorporate in, or use to build and support, our products and services, may contain defects that impair performance. These problems can be expensive to fix and can also result in higher technical support costs and lost customers. In addition, new

-17-


 

products or features are sometimes built on top of older architectures or infrastructures, which can take longer to get to market, make quality assurance and support more difficult, and lead to complexity in supporting future functionality. Significant delays in new product enhancements or significant problems in creating new products may give competitors opportunities to improve their competitive position at our expense and result in declines in our revenues and earnings.

Currently, our business depends on integrating our products and services into our customers’ businesses, and, as a result, our business will suffer if use of such software declines or if the market for such software does not develop sufficiently.

     If the market for Interaction Server software does not continue to grow or grows slower than expected, the need for our product and services could decline, resulting in fewer projects and reduced revenues. Consumers and businesses may reject our software or services for a number of reasons, including:

    costs associated with licensing and implementing multi-channel enterprise technology;
 
    actual or perceived lack of security of information;
 
    lack of access and ease of use;
 
    congestion of Internet traffic or other usage delays;
 
    inconsistent quality of service;
 
    increases in access costs to the Internet;
 
    evolving government regulation;
 
    uncertainty regarding intellectual property ownership;
 
    costs associated with the obsolescence of the multi-channel and existing infrastructure; and
 
    our economic viability and the economic viability of our competitors.

Because our business of software products and services involves creating and using intellectual property, misappropriation of and disputes regarding intellectual property could harm our reputation, adversely affect our competitive position and cost us money.

     If third parties infringe or misappropriate our products, trade secrets, trademarks or other proprietary information, or if disputes arise with customers concerning intellectual property we create for them and/or license from them, our reputation, competitive position and relationships with customers could be damaged. We could be required to spend significant amounts of time and financial resources to defend our company, and our managerial resources could be diverted.

We may not be able to provide adequate customer service, which could adversely affect our customer relationships and financial performance.

     If we are unable to provide adequate customer service, we could lose customers and/or receive negative publicity, which could have a significant negative impact on the financial and market success of our products and services. In addition, despite our efforts to maintain continuous and reliable customer

service, we may occasionally experience unplanned outages or technical difficulties. Lengthy and/or frequent service disruptions, particularly for services that customers consider time-sensitive, can result in negative publicity, damage to our reputation and loss of customers. This could adversely affect customer relationships and our financial performance.

We are focusing on the sale and marketing of our software product, which may affect our ability to generate services revenues.

     Our sales and marketing efforts are focused on selling Cysive Cymbio and services related to the software product. We may not be able to successfully sell other custom software development projects, since we may not actively seek such projects. In addition, we may not be able to sell sufficient software products or related services to offset our costs, which may result in increased losses.

Our business is technology driven, and if we have difficulty responding to changing technology, industry standards and customer preferences, we could lose customers, which would reduce our revenues.

     We have derived and expect to continue to derive a substantial portion of our revenues from creating e-business systems that are based upon the latest, most advanced technologies and are capable of adapting to future technologies. Our success depends on our ability to offer products and services that stay at the forefront of continuing changes in technology, evolving industry standards and changing customer preferences. Our failure to create products and e-business systems that use these technologies could cause us to lose current and potential business opportunities, resulting in reduced revenues. Additionally, to the extent technology becomes standardized or simplified, there may be less demand for our products and services.

If we fail to meet our customers’ expectations, we could damage our reputation and have difficulty attracting new business or be sued.

     Our products and projects are complex and critical to our customers. As a result, if we fail or are unable to meet a customer’s expectations, we could damage our reputation. This could adversely affect our ability to attract new business from that customer or others. If we fail to perform adequately on a project, or if our product fails to adequately meet a customer’s expectations, a customer could sue us for damages. Our contracts generally limit our liability for damages that may arise from negligent acts, errors, mistakes or omissions in selling products or rendering services to our customers. However, we cannot be sure that these contractual provisions will protect us from liability for damages if we are sued. Furthermore, our general liability insurance coverage may not continue to be available on reasonable terms or in sufficient amounts to cover one or more large claims, or the insurer may disclaim coverage as to any future claim.

Because our customers retain us on a project-by-project basis, rather than under long-term contracts, we may be unable to accurately predict our revenues, which may adversely affect our operating margins.

     Our operating expenses, including employee salaries, rent and administrative expenses, are relatively fixed and cannot be reduced on short notice to compensate for unanticipated variations in the number or size of projects in progress or the number of product sales. Because we incur costs based on our expectations of future revenues, our failure to predict our revenues accurately may result in our costs becoming a larger percentage of our revenues that would reduce our margins. If a customer defers, modifies or cancels a project or a product sale, we may be unable to rapidly re-deploy our employees to

-19-


 

other projects to minimize underutilization of employees and avoid a negative impact to our operating results.

We enter into non-compete agreements with some of our customers, which reduces the number of our potential customers and sources of revenues.

     A substantial portion of our business involves the development of software applications for specific projects. Ownership of customer-specific software is generally retained by the customer, although we retain rights to some of the applications, processes and other intellectual property developed in connection with projects. We sometimes agree, however, not to reuse this customer-specific software when building systems for a customer’s competitors. In addition, we occasionally agree not to build any type of system for a customer’s competitors for limited periods of time, which have been as long as three years. These non-compete agreements reduce the number of our potential customers and our sources of revenues.

A general decline in economic conditions could lead to reduced demand for our products and services.

     The continuing downturn in general economic conditions and specific declines in the technology sector has led to reduced demand for a variety of goods and services, including many technology products. If conditions continue to decline, or fail to improve, in geographic areas that are significant to us, we could see a significant decrease in the overall demand for our products and services that could harm our operating results.

Competition from larger, more established competitors with greater financial resources and from new entrants could result in price reductions, reduced profitability and loss of current or future customers.

     The software product and services market is intensely competitive and face rapid technological change. We expect competition to continue and intensify, which could result in price reductions, reduced profitability and the loss of current or future customers. Many of our competitors have longer operating histories and customer relationships, greater financial, technical, marketing and public relations resources, larger customer bases and greater brand or name recognition than we have. Our competitors may be able to respond more quickly to technological developments and changes in customer needs. This ability may place us at a disadvantage in responding to our competitors’ pricing strategies, technological advances, advertising campaigns, strategic partnerships and other initiatives. In addition, there are low barriers to entry into our business because the costs to develop new products and to provide information technology services are relatively low. We do not own any technologies that preclude or inhibit competitors from entering our industry. We have filed a patent application for our Follow-On universal session management technology, which is part of Cysive Cymbio. We cannot be certain that the patent will be granted, that the patent application will not be successfully challenged or that we will realize any competitive advantage from the patent if it is granted. Therefore, we expect to continue to face additional competition from new entrants into our industry.

The impact of our restructuring efforts may adversely affect our operating results.

     In response to the decline in demand for our services and the resulting decline in our net revenues in the past several quarters, we implemented four reductions of our headcount by a total of 224 persons between December 31, 2000 and December 31, 2001. We also closed our Boston office. As a result of the closing of our office in Boston, we continue to pay for office space that we are not currently using. This lease obligation extends until August 2005 and is secured by a letter of credit in the amount of $103,656.

Our ability to sublease, assign or otherwise divest this surplus office space could be adversely affected by depressed real estate market conditions in Boston. In addition, our history of headcount reductions could adversely affect our ability to attract and retain quality employees.

Because we rely on highly trained and experienced personnel to design and build complex products and systems for our customers, our inability to attract and retain qualified employees would impair our ability to provide our products and services to existing and new customers.

     Our future success depends in large part on our ability to attract and retain highly trained and experienced software developers and engineers as well as recruiters, other technical personnel and sales and marketing professionals of various levels with experience in software product and related solutions. If we fail to attract and retain these personnel, we may be unable to enhance our existing products, develop new products, complete existing projects or bid for new projects of similar size, which could reduce our revenues. While attracting and retaining experienced software developers and engineers is critical to our business and growth strategy, maintaining our current level of software developers and engineer experience, averaging more than nine years, may also be particularly difficult. Skilled software developers and engineers are in short supply, and this shortage is likely to continue for some time. As a result, competition for these people is intense, and the industry attrition rate for them is high.

We depend on our Chief Executive Officer, and his loss may adversely affect our ability to attract and retain customers, maintain a cohesive culture and compete effectively.

     We believe that our success depends on the continued employment of our Chief Executive Officer, Nelson A. Carbonell, Jr. If Mr. Carbonell were unable or unwilling to continue in his present position, he would be very difficult to replace and our business could be adversely affected. Mr. Carbonell is particularly important to our business in providing strategic direction, managing our operations and creating and maintaining a cohesive culture. He has also been involved in establishing and expanding customer relationships.
