1.     Basis of Presentation and Nature of Business

      Moldflow Corporation (“Moldflow” or the “Company”) designs, develops, manufactures and markets computer software applications for the design, engineering and manufacture of injection-molded plastic parts and, as such, revenues are derived primarily from the plastic design and manufacturing industry. The Company sells its products primarily to customers in the United States, Europe, Asia and Australia.

      The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Moldflow Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended June 30, 2003 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The June 30, 2003 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of those of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three-month period ended September 27, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the full fiscal year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2004 presentation.

      The Company’s fiscal year end is June 30. During the fiscal year, the Company follows a schedule in which each interim quarterly period ends on the Saturday of the thirteenth full week of the reporting period.

4.     Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

      The Company has established a hedging program designed to reduce the exposure to changes in currency exchange rates.

      At September 27, 2003, currency options and collars designated as hedging instruments with notional amounts of $1.5 million, $4.5 million and $1.8 million to exchange Euros, Japanese yen and Australian dollars for U.S. dollars, respectively, were outstanding. At September 27, 2003, the total fair values of all currency options and collars held by the Company of $157,000 and $268,000 were recorded as components of other current assets and other current liabilities, respectively. Net unrealized losses on options and collars that qualified as hedging instruments of $95,000 were included in accumulated other comprehensive income. During the three months ended September 27, 2003, net losses of $80,000 were recorded as components of other income and expense on the effective portion of options that were settled. For the three months ended September 27, 2003, an unrealized loss of $21,000 was recognized on the ineffective portion of the options and collars dedesignated as hedging instruments.

      At September 28, 2002, currency options and collars designated as hedging instruments with notional amounts of $3.2 million, $6.6 million and $1.8 million to exchange Euros, Japanese yen and Australian dollars for U.S. dollars, respectively, were outstanding. In August 2002, the Company discontinued hedge accounting for the excess portion of instruments that were used to hedge transactions considered no longer probable of occurring. At September 28, 2002, these instruments had notional amounts of $1.4 million and $243,000 to exchange Japanese yen and Australian dollars for U.S. dollars, respectively. At September 28, 2002, the total fair values of all currency options and collars held by the Company of $163,000 and $299,000 were recorded as components of other current assets and other current liabilities, respectively. Net unrealized losses on options and collars that qualified as hedging instruments of $222,000 were included in accumulated other comprehensive income. During the three months ended September 28, 2002, gains of $11,000 were recorded as components of other income and expense on the effective portion of options that were settled. For the three months ended September 28, 2002, an unrealized gain of $38,000 was recognized on the ineffective portion of the options and collars dedesignated as hedging instruments.

5.     Acquired Intangible Assets

      Intangible assets acquired in the Company’s business combinations include goodwill, customer base, developed technology and non-compete agreements. All of the Company’s acquired intangible assets, except for goodwill, are subject to amortization over their estimated useful lives. No significant residual value is estimated for these intangible assets.

      The components of acquired intangible assets are as follows:

As of September 27, 2003, 80,726 of these shares were reissued under the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan and 163,439 shares remained in treasury.

8.     Comprehensive Income

      Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and other comprehensive income and losses. Other comprehensive income includes certain changes in equity that are excluded from net income, such as cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments. Other comprehensive income also includes unrealized gains and losses on the Company’s hedging instruments and unrealized gains and losses on the Company’s marketable securities.

9.     Restructuring Plans

March 2003 Plan

      In March 2003, the Company initiated a corporate restructuring plan (the “March 2003 plan”) related to its January 2003 acquisition of Côntrole de Processus Industriels s.a.r.l. (“CPI”). The March 2003 plan included the involuntary termination of four technical employees and a reduction of space at a leased facility, related to the integration of CPI’s operations. In addition, the March 2003 plan included the write-off of inventories and other assets and certain intangible assets originally acquired in the purchase of Branden Technologies in fiscal 2001, which were deemed impaired by the acquisition of a similar product in connection with the CPI transaction.

      As a result of the March 2003 plan, the Company recorded pre-tax charges and related accruals of $584,000 ($486,000 after tax, or $0.05 per diluted share) in its third fiscal quarter of 2003. Of this charge, $179,000 related to the write-off of inventories and, as such, was included as a component of the cost of product revenue. The remainder of the charge was recorded as a restructuring charge in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income. All significant activities under the March 2003 plan were completed as of June 30, 2003.

      The following table presents the pre-tax charges incurred by category of expenditure, and related restructuring costs included in accrued expenses in the Company’s balance sheet (in thousands):

April 2002 Plan

      In April 2002, the Company enacted a corporate restructuring plan (the “April 2002 plan”) to resize the Company and to reduce overhead costs. The April 2002 plan included the involuntary termination of 37 employees, the closing of certain leased offices and the reduction in size of other leased offices. All significant activities under the April 2002 plan are complete. As a result of the April 2002 plan, the Company recorded pre-tax charges and related accruals in fiscal 2002 of $1.3 million. The remaining accrual balances as of September 27, 2003 relate to long-term contractual obligations from facility commitments that will be paid over six years. The following table presents the balance of the accrued restructuring charges:

10.     Credit Facilities

      In December 2002, the Company renewed its unsecured $5.0 million working capital credit facility with a domestic bank. The terms of the facility, which expires December 5, 2003, are substantially the same as that of the previous facility. The available borrowing base of the facility is subject to a calculation that is based upon eligible accounts receivable. Advances may be in the form of loans, letters of credit, foreign exchange contracts or other cash management lines. Loans against the facility bear interest at the bank’s prime rate. The facility includes certain restrictive covenants, all of which the Company was in compliance with as of September 27, 2003. These covenants include certain liquidity and profitability measures and restrictions that limit the ability of the Company to merge, acquire or sell certain assets without prior approval from the bank. As of September 27, 2003, the Company had employed $1.6 million of the available borrowing base through outstanding foreign exchange contracts and letters of credit. These advances do not incur interest charges. As of September 27, 2003, there were no loans advanced against the facility, and the remaining available borrowing base was $2.1 million.

      Certain subsidiaries of the Company have established credit facilities with two separate financial institutions primarily for the purposes of establishing foreign exchange contracts. Advances against these facilities bear interest at the institutions’ published rates plus 2% per annum. These credit facilities are unsecured. Advances against these facilities are guaranteed by the Company. There were no advances against these facilities as of September 27, 2003.

      Certain subsidiaries of the Company have established other credit facilities totaling $365,000 with two separate financial institutions for general working capital requirements and foreign exchange facilities. Advances against these facilities bear interest at the institutions’ published rates, plus 1.5% per annum. Advances against one of these facilities are secured by a $102,000 term deposit and the assets of a subsidiary of the Company. There were no advances against these facilities as of September 27, 2003.

12.     Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantor Arrangements

      In the normal course of business, the Company has indemnified third parties and has commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in certain circumstances. These indemnities, commitments and guarantees include: its indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases; indemnities to customers related to intellectual property and performance of services subcontracted to other providers; indemnities to vendors that guarantee expenses incurred by employees of the Company; indemnities and guarantees to financial institutions related to sales of the Company’s equity securities and performance under credit facilities of the Company’s subsidiaries; and indemnities to directors and officers of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies, and in certain cases, is indefinite. The majority of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. The Company has never incurred material costs to settle claims or defend lawsuits related to these indemnities, commitments and guarantees. As a result, the estimated fair value of these agreements is minimal. Accordingly, no liabilities have been recorded for these agreements as of September 27, 2003.

      The Company generally warrants that its products will perform in all material respects in accordance with its standard published specifications in effect at the time of delivery of the products to the customer for a period of 90 days from the date of shipment or any longer period that may be required by local law. The Company records a liability based upon its history of claims against the contractual warranty provisions. The following table describes changes to the warranty provision:

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

Forward-Looking Statements

      This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” and “continue” or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our future expectations, contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial condition, or state other “forward-looking” information. We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors.

      However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control and that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those discussed as a result of various factors, including those factors described in “Risk Factors and Important Factors That May Affect Future Results” beginning on page 21. Readers should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any obligation to update any of our forward-looking statements to reflect events occurring after the date of this report.

Business Overview

      Our primary business is the development, sale and support of software applications for the design and manufacture of injection molded plastic parts. We develop software products internally and through cooperative research relationships with a number of public and private educational and research organizations around the world. We categorize our products into two groups, Design Optimization Solutions and Manufacturing Solutions. Our Design Optimization Solutions allow a product designer or engineer to simulate the manufacture of a plastic part to determine the optimal part design and part/mold combination. Our Design Optimization Solutions include our MPI series for in-depth mold design and our MPA series for part design and high-level mold design. Our Manufacturing Solutions deliver a complete collaborative manufacturing management system which provides production and process data for use in real-time business performance management and functions to automate the setup and control of the injection molding process. Our Manufacturing Solutions products are an integration of our existing MPX product, our Shotscope product acquired from Branden Technologies in April 2003, and our CPI production monitoring system product introduced in January 2003 after our acquisition of the assets and the ongoing operations of Côntrole de Processus Industriels s.a.r.l.

      We sell our products and services internationally through our direct sales operations in 14 countries. We also sell through a network of distributors and value-added resellers and through distribution arrangements with developers of other design software products.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

      The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to bad debts, inventories, income taxes, warranty obligations, intangible assets, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates 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 the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

      The accounting policies that we believe are most critical to fully understand our consolidated financial statements include: revenue recognition, valuation allowances, acquisition accounting, impairment of intangible assets, goodwill and other long-lived assets, income tax accounting, restructuring charges, hedge

accounting, and capitalization of software development costs. For a more detailed explanation of the judgments included in these areas, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2003.

Results of Operations

      We generate revenue from two principal sources:

  •  license fees for our packaged software products, and
 
  •  services revenue derived from maintenance and support services related to our software products, consulting, implementation, training and material testing.

      Product revenue. Typically, our customers pay an up-front, one-time fee for our products. The amount of the fee depends upon the number and type of software modules licensed, the associated hardware components and the number of the customers’ employees or other users who can access the software product simultaneously. Our MPA product is subject to the terms of a “click-wrapped” software license agreement that is included as part of each customer’s installation process. Revenue for our iMPA product, a fully functional, application service provider version of our Part Adviser product, is earned on a pay-per-use basis and, to date, has not been significant. For sales of our other products, we generally require a signed license agreement. In addition, we receive royalty payments from developers of other software products related to the bundling of our software with their design software programs.

      Services revenue. We derive revenue from maintenance and support contracts that require us to provide technical support services to customers and unspecified product upgrades and enhancements on a when-and-if-available basis. We also provide consulting and implementation services, training of customers’ employees and material testing services.

      Cost of product revenue. Cost of product revenue consists primarily of the costs associated with hardware components for our Manufacturing Solutions products, compact discs and related packaging material, duplication and shipping costs and the salaries of our distribution personnel. In some cases, we pay royalties to third parties for usage-based licenses of their products that are embedded in our products. Product royalties are expensed when the related obligation arises, which is generally upon the license of our products, and are included in cost of product revenue. Also included in cost of product revenue is amortization expense related to capitalized software development costs.

      Cost of services revenue. Cost of services revenue consists primarily of salary, fringe benefit and facility related costs of our maintenance and support, consulting, implementation and training activities and of our material testing laboratories, and is expensed when incurred. Additionally, from time to time, we engage outside consultants to meet peaks in customer demand for consulting and implementation services.

      Research and development. We employ a development staff to create new products and enhance our existing products. Product development expenditures, which include salaries, benefits, travel, payments to universities and other research institutions and facilities costs, are generally charged to operations as incurred. SFAS 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 up to the point of the product’s release. In the three months ended September 27, 2003 and the three months ended September 28, 2002, costs eligible for capitalization were not significant.

      Selling and marketing. We sell our products primarily through our direct sales force and indirect distribution channels. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions to our sales staff, employee benefits costs, sales office facilities, travel and promotional events such as trade shows, advertising, print and web-based collateral materials and public relations programs.

      General and administrative. General and administrative expenses include compensation, routine legal, audit, tax consulting, regulatory compliance, insurance and other costs of our executive management, finance, information technology, human resources and administrative support activities.

14


Table of Contents

      Amortization of acquired intangible assets. These costs represent the amortization of intangible assets recorded in connection with our acquisitions. These assets include developed technology, customer base and non-compete agreements.

      Interest income, net. Interest income, net includes interest income earned on invested cash balances, net of our cost of borrowings, including interest cost incurred on our working capital lines of credit.

      Other income (loss), net. Other income (loss), net includes realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from translation of foreign currency denominated asset and liability balances, recognized gains and losses on our foreign currency hedging instruments, and other non-operating income and expense items.

      Provision for income taxes. Our income tax expense includes federal, state and foreign income taxes. The determination of our provision for income tax expense requires significant management judgment regarding forecasts of net income and tax obligations in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates and includes the tax effects of certain items of income and expense that are reported in differing periods for financial statement and tax return purposes. Further, we must assess the likelihood of the realization of our deferred tax assets. If it is more likely than not that any or all of our deferred tax assets will not be realized, we must establish a valuation allowance by including an expense within the income tax provision. Accordingly, our effective tax rate may vary from period to period based on changes in estimated taxable income or loss, changes to the valuation allowance, changes to federal, state or foreign tax laws, changes in our business across different jurisdictions with varying country, state and local income tax rates, deductibility of certain costs and expenses by jurisdiction and as a result of acquisitions.

      The increase in product revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2004 was primarily a result of an increase in product revenue in our Asia/ Australia region, particularly in Japan, China and Taiwan, where we currently are selling only Design Optimization Solutions products. We believe that the increase in product revenue in Japan is a result of a broadening of the market for our products beyond our traditional customer base to include members of the original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”) supply chain and a mild economic recovery in Japan which resulted in higher levels of capital spending by our customers. In China and Taiwan, we believe that local manufacturers are expanding their capabilities to include a value-added design component to their businesses, which has resulted in an increase in our product revenue in those countries.

      We added 102 new customers in the first quarter of fiscal 2004, compared to 67 new customers in the same period of fiscal 2003. Sales to new customers represented 25% of total product revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2004, compared to 43% in the same period of fiscal 2003. We sold 134 seats of Design Optimization Solutions products and 90 seats of Manufacturing Solutions products in the first quarter of fiscal 2004, compared to 121 seats and 133 seats, respectively, in the corresponding period of fiscal 2003. Pricing of individual products within these product families can vary greatly, and the mix of products sold during a given period can significantly impact our average sales price per seat. As such, we do not believe that average sales prices per seat provide a meaningful measure of our business.

      Service revenue. Services revenue increased 12%, or $552,000, to $5.2 million for the three months ended September 27, 2003, from $4.6 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002. This increase was primarily in the sale of maintenance contracts, which is the result of historical growth in our customer base arising from product license sales.

      No customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue during the three-month periods ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002.

 
Costs and Expenses

      Cost of product revenue. The cost of product revenue decreased 3%, or $23,000, to $638,000 for the three months ended September 27, 2003, from $661,000 for the three months ended September 28, 2002. The decrease was a result of reduced hardware costs and a reallocation of some resources to cost of services revenue from cost of product revenue, partially offset by increased amortization expense related to capitalized software development costs.

      Cost of services revenue. Our cost of services revenue increased 125%, or $349,000, to $629,000 for the three months ended September 27, 2003, from $280,000 for the three months ended September 28, 2002. The increase reflects the impact of organizational changes to redirect technical resources from research and development, sales and cost of product revenue to our post sales implementation group, the cost of which is included in cost of services revenue.

17


Table of Contents

      The implementation group was expanded as a result of the growing customer base for our Manufacturing Solutions products and will increase our cost of service revenue when compared with previous periods. We expect that the gross margin on total revenues will be in the range of 83% to 84% over the course of the remainder of the fiscal year.

      Research and development. Research and development expenses increased 9%, or $138,000, to $1.6 million for the three months ended September 27, 2003, from $1.5 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002. The increase is primarily attributable to the addition of 5 employees relative to the same period of fiscal 2003, most of whom joined the Company as a result of the acquisition of the assets and ongoing operations of CPI in January 2003.

      Selling and marketing. Selling and marketing expenses of $4.2 million for the three months ended September 27, 2003 were unchanged from the three months ended September 28, 2002, as increased employee costs of $172,000 were offset by reduced spending on promotional activities of $32,000 and the reallocation of $87,000 of resources to customer support and implementation, which is included in cost of services revenue.

      General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased 16%, or $264,000, to $1.9 million for the three months ended September 27, 2003, from $1.7 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002. The increase was primarily due to increased professional service fees, including the cost of audit, tax and other accounting services.

      Amortization of acquired intangible assets. Amortization expense decreased 30%, or $48,000, to $111,000 for the three months ended September 27, 2003, from $159,000 for the three months ended September 28, 2002. The decrease was a result of our March 2003 restructuring plan that included the write-off of certain intangible assets which were acquired in our purchase of Branden Technologies in March 2001. The reduction of amortization expense resulting from this write-off was partially offset by amortization of intangible assets acquired in the January 2003 acquisition of CPI.

      Interest income, net. Interest income, net decreased 7%, or $19,000, to $268,000 for the three months ended September 27, 2003 from $287,000 for the three months ended September 28, 2002. The decrease was primarily the result of the conversion of marketable securities to cash and other highly liquid instruments that yield lower interest income.

      Other income (loss), net. Other income (loss), net decreased 295%, or $65,000, to a loss of $43,000 for the three months ended September 27, 2003, from income of $22,000 for the three months ended September 28, 2002.

      Provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes increased 10%, or $23,000, to $248,000 for the three months ended September 27, 2003, from $225,000 for the three months ended September 28, 2002. In 2003, we incurred income taxes in certain foreign jurisdictions that could not be offset in the financial statement tax provision by tax benefits arising from losses in other jurisdictions, resulting in a higher than normal tax provision. In 2004, our effective annual tax rate is estimated to be 37% of income before income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Historically, we have financed our operations and met our capital expenditure requirements primarily through funds generated from operations, sales of our capital stock and borrowings from lending institutions. As of September 27, 2003, our primary sources of liquidity consisted of our total cash and cash equivalents balance of $40.7 million, our marketable securities balance of $11.9 million and our credit facilities. In December 2002, we renewed our primary $5.0 million, unsecured working capital credit facility. The available borrowing base of the facility is subject to a calculation that is based upon eligible accounts receivable. At September 27, 2003, we had employed $1.6 million of available borrowings through outstanding foreign exchange contracts and letters of credit. The remaining available borrowings were $2.1 million. The Company plans to renew this facility when it expires in December 2003. In addition to our primary working capital line of credit, we also utilize domestic and foreign banking institutions to provide liquidity to our subsidiaries. We

18


Table of Contents

also have relationships with other banking institutions in order to facilitate foreign currency and hedging transactions. As of September 27, 2003, we had no outstanding debt.

      At September 27, 2003, our marketable securities consisted of corporate bonds with maturities in excess of three months but less than one year. Investments in marketable securities are made in accordance with our corporate investment policy. The primary objective of this policy is the preservation of capital. Investments are limited to high quality corporate debt, government securities, municipal debt securities, money market funds and similar instruments. The policy establishes maturity limits, liquidity requirements and concentration limits. At September 27, 2003, we were in compliance with this policy.

      Operating activities of the three months ended September 27, 2003 generated $287,000 of net cash. This was a result of our net income, adjusted for certain non-cash charges and expenses, such as depreciation and amortization, reductions in account receivable balances, which increased cash by $1.2 million, and reductions in other non-current assets, which generated $540,000 of cash. These increases were offset by $186,000 of cash used to increase inventories, prepaid expenses and other current assets and $2.3 million of cash used to reduce accounts payable balances, accrued expenses and deferred revenue balances.

      Net cash provided by investing activities was $1.6 million for the three months ended September 27, 2003. Cash of $1.9 million was generated from the proceeds of sales and maturities of our marketable securities. This was partially offset by our purchases of fixed assets, which used $310,000 of cash.

      Net cash of $169,000 was provided by financing activities during the three months ended September 27, 2003. This cash was generated by exercises of stock options and proceeds received for common stock under the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

      We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and available lines of credit will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months following the date of this Quarterly Report. On a long-term basis or to complete acquisitions in the short term, we may require additional external financing through credit facilities, sales of additional equity or other financing vehicles. There can be no assurance that such financing can be obtained on favorable terms, if at all.

      The Company does not have any special purpose entities or off-balance sheet financing arrangements. The Company’s cash commitments, as disclosed in Note 18 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2003, have not changed significantly.

Restructuring

March 2003 Plan

      In March 2003, the Company initiated a corporate restructuring plan (the “March 2003 plan”) related to its January 2003 acquisition of Côntrole de Processus Industriels s.a.r.l. (“CPI”). The March 2003 plan included the involuntary termination of four technical employees and a reduction of space at a leased facility, related to the integration of CPI’s operations. In addition, the March 2003 plan included the write-off of inventories and other assets and certain intangible assets originally acquired in the purchase of Branden Technologies in fiscal 2001, which were deemed impaired by the acquisition of a similar product in connection with the CPI transaction.

      As a result of the March 2003 plan, the Company recorded pre-tax charges and related accruals of $584,000 ($486,000 after tax, or $0.05 per diluted share) in its third fiscal quarter of 2003. Of this charge, $179,000 related to the write-off of inventories and, as such, was included as a component of the cost of product revenue. The remainder of the charge was recorded as a restructuring charge in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income. All significant activities under the March 2003 plan were completed as of June 30, 2003.

April 2002 Plan

      In April 2002, the Company enacted a corporate restructuring plan (the “April 2002 plan”) to resize the Company and to reduce overhead costs. The April 2002 plan included the involuntary termination of 37 employees, the closing of certain leased offices and the reduction in size of other leased offices. All significant activities under the April 2002 plan are complete. As a result of the April 2002 plan, the Company recorded pre-tax charges and related accruals in fiscal 2002 of $1.3 million. The remaining accrual balances as of September 27, 2003 relate to long-term contractual obligations from facility commitments that will be paid over six years.

Impact of Inflation

      We believe that our revenue and results of operations have not been significantly impacted by inflation.

Risk Factors and Important Factors That May Affect Future Results

      You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties prior to making an investment in our common stock. These risks and uncertainties may also cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in or predicted by our forward-looking statements.

 
The existing general economic slowdown, particularly in our end markets, may continue to impact our results.

      The demand for our products is largely driven by the demand for the products in our primary end markets. Many of these end markets, particularly the automotive, telecommunications and electronics industries have experienced severe economic declines over the past 24 months which significantly and

20


Table of Contents

adversely affected our business in fiscal 2002 and 2003. A continuation of this general economic slowdown will materially and adversely affect us by decreasing our revenue as compared to prior years, as was the case in fiscal 2002, or by lowering our revenue growth rates when compared to those experienced prior to fiscal 2002. In addition, increased hostilities around the world are continuing to cause widespread uncertainty and speculation in the United States and world financial markets. This uncertainty and speculation may result in further economic contraction and a further suspension in the normal purchasing patterns of our customers.
 
Our business model and market focus is changing as we further develop and exploit our Manufacturing Solutions products.

      The development and implementation of a robust set of Manufacturing Solutions products has required that we devote significant research and development, marketing and executive level resources to this product family. Further expenditures of time and effort will be required in order to maximize the potential of this set of products. Optimizing sales of this product group will also require that we capitalize on existing customer synergies through a common product strategy and that our sales model be effective in selling both Design Optimization Solutions and Manufacturing Solutions products. Our results of operations could be adversely affected by significant delays in developing, completing or shipping our new or enhanced Manufacturing Solutions products as well as by delays in acceptance of these products by customers. Because these products interact with other factory or enterprise-wide systems, we may be required to provided additional functionality or services, which may delay the recognition of revenue. Acquisition of other businesses, such as CPI, may delay the development and completion of our Manufacturing Solutions products as we seek to integrate newly acquired technology onto our product platform.

 
Our quarterly operating results are subject to significant fluctuations and, as a result, period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as indicators of future performance.

      We have experienced significant historical fluctuations in our results of operations on a quarterly basis. We expect to continue to experience significant fluctuations in our future quarterly results of operations due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, including:

  •  seasonal slowdowns, in particular, in our first fiscal quarter, in many of the markets in which we sell our products,
 
  •  changes in the mix of products and services we provide as sales of our Manufacturing Solutions products and our services will result in lower gross margins and a longer selling cycle,
 
  •  the timing and magnitude of capital expenditures, including costs relating to the expansion of our operations and infrastructure, and planned program spending, such as that required for major marketing initiatives or tradeshows,
 
  •  the timing and magnitude of our tax expense, resulting from the globally distributed nature of our selling and research and development operations that may lead to increased taxable income in certain jurisdictions that may not yet be offset by losses in other tax jurisdictions,
 
  •  introductions of new services or enhancements by us and our competitors and changes in our and our competitors’ pricing policies,
 
  •  currency fluctuations, and
 
  •  timing and integration of acquisitions.

      In addition, like many software companies, we usually record a larger percentage of our quarterly revenue in the third month of the fiscal quarter. Also, our Manufacturing Solutions products may involve a longer selling cycle with corresponding larger order sizes which may lead to an inability to close on orders or make shipments in the period immediately preceding the end of the fiscal quarter. Accordingly, our quarterly results are often difficult to predict prior to the final days of the quarter.

If we experience delays in introducing new products or if our existing or new products do not achieve market acceptance, we may lose revenue.

      Our industry is characterized by:

  •  rapid technological advances,
 
  •  evolving industry standards,
 
  •  changes in end-user requirements,
 
  •  intense competition,
 
  •  technically complex products,
 
  •  frequent new product introductions, and
 
  •  evolving offerings by product manufacturers.

      We believe our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to anticipate or adapt to these factors and to offer on a timely basis products that meet customer demands. For example, the introduction of new products and services embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards can render our existing products obsolete. The development of new or enhanced products is a complex and uncertain process, requiring the anticipation of technological and market trends. We may experience design, manufacturing, marketing and other difficulties that could delay or prevent our development, introduction or marketing of new products and enhancements and result in unexpected expenses.

      Our growth and profitability also will depend upon our ability to expand the use and market penetration of our existing product lines as well as new products we introduce. Market acceptance of our products will depend in part on our ability to demonstrate the cost-effectiveness, ease of use and technological advantages of our products over competing products.

 
Future mergers, acquisitions and strategic relationships may result in lost revenue caused by business disruptions and missed opportunities caused by the distraction of our management.

      We may engage in other acquisitions and strategic relationships in the future. We may not be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates, and, if we do identify suitable candidates, we may not be able to make such acquisitions on commercially acceptable terms or at all. If we merge with or acquire another company, we will only receive the anticipated benefits if we successfully integrate the acquired business into our existing business in a timely and non-disruptive manner. We may have to devote a significant amount of time and management and financial resources to do so. Even with this investment of management and financial resources, an acquisition may not produce the revenues, earnings or business synergies that we anticipated. If we fail to integrate the acquired business effectively or if key employees of that business leave, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition would be jeopardized. The time, capital, management and other resources spent on an acquisition that failed to meet our expectations could cause our business and financial condition to be materially and adversely affected. In addition, acquisitions can involve non-recurring charges and amortization of significant amounts of acquired identifiable intangible assets that could adversely affect our results of operations.

 
If we become subject to intellectual property infringement claims, we could incur significant expenses and we could be prevented from offering specific products or services.

      Our products include proprietary intellectual property. We may become subject to claims that we infringe on the proprietary rights of others. In the United States and elsewhere, a significant number of software and business method patents have been issued over the past decade and the holders of these patents have been actively seeking out potential infringers. In addition, our Manufacturing Solutions products require interaction with an injection molding machine, the use and technology of which are subject to a wide variety of world-wide patents and other intellectual property protection. If any element of our products or services violates third-party proprietary rights, we might not be able to obtain licenses on commercially reasonable terms to

22


Table of Contents

continue offering our products or services without substantial re-engineering and any effort to undertake such re-engineering might not be successful. In addition, any claim of infringement could cause us to incur substantial costs defending against the claim, even if the claim is invalid, and could distract our management from our business. Any judgment against us could require us to pay substantial damages and could also include an injunction or other court order that could prevent us from offering our products and services.
 
We may lose sales to competitors if we are unable to protect important intellectual property.

      Our ability to compete effectively against other companies in our industry will depend, in part, on our ability to protect our proprietary rights in our technology. We may be unable to maintain the proprietary nature of our technology. While we have attempted to safeguard and maintain our proprietary rights, we do not know whether we have been or will be completely successful in doing so.

      We face the following risks in protecting our intellectual property:

  •  we cannot be certain that our pending United States and foreign patent applications will result in issued patents or that the claims allowed are or will be sufficiently broad to protect our technology,
 
  •  third parties may design around our patented technologies or seek to challenge or invalidate our patented technologies,
 
  •  patents of others may have an adverse effect on our ability to do business,
 
  •  the contractual provisions that we rely on, in part, to protect our trade secrets and proprietary knowledge may be breached, and we may not have adequate remedies for any breach and our trade secrets and proprietary information may be disclosed to the public,
 
  •  our trade secrets may also become known without breach of such agreements or may be independently developed by competitors,
 
  •  foreign countries, including some of those in which we do business, may reduce or limit the protection of our intellectual property rights, and
 
  •  the cost of enforcing the protection of our intellectual property rights may reduce our future profitability.

 
Our financial condition or results of operations may be adversely affected by international business risks.

      The majority of our employees, including sales, support and research and development personnel, are located outside of the United States. Similarly, the majority of our revenues are derived from customers outside the United States and certain intellectual property is owned by subsidiary companies located outside the United States. Conducting business outside of the United States is subject to numerous risks, including:

  •  decreased liquidity resulting from longer accounts receivable collection cycles typical of certain foreign countries,
 
  •  decreased revenue on foreign sales resulting from possible foreign currency exchange and conversion issues,
 
  •  lower productivity resulting from difficulties managing our sales, support and research and development operations across many countries,
 
  •  decreased earnings based on changes in tax regulations in foreign jurisdictions or the timing of required tax payments in foreign jurisdictions that may not yet be offset by tax benefits arising from losses in other jurisdictions,
 
  •  lost revenue resulting from difficulties associated with enforcing agreements and collecting receivables through foreign legal systems,
 
  •  lost revenue resulting from the imposition by foreign governments of trade protection measures, and

23


Table of Contents

  •  higher cost of sales resulting from import or export licensing requirements.

 
We have more limited financial and other resources than many of our competitors and potential competitors and may be unable to compete successfully against them.

      We operate in a highly competitive environment and may not be able to successfully compete. Companies in our industry and entities in similar industries could decide to focus on the development of software solutions for the design, analysis and manufacturing of injection molded plastic parts. Many of these entities have substantially greater financial, research and development, manufacturing and marketing resources than we do. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced profitability and loss of market share.

 
Disruption of operations at our development facilities could interfere with our product development and production cycles.

      A significant portion of our computer equipment, source code and personnel, including critical resources dedicated to research and development, are presently located at operating facilities in Australia, the United States and Europe. The occurrence of a natural disaster or other unanticipated catastrophe at any of these facilities could cause interruptions in our operations and services. Extensive or multiple interruptions in our operations at our development facilities could severely disrupt our product development.

 
Our Manufacturing Solutions products may lead to product liability claims against us.

      Our Manufacturing Solutions products are installed directly on our customers’ injection molding machines and, in certain cases, automatically adjust the operation of these machines. As a result, it is possible that our customers may claim that our product interfered with the proper operation of their machines and may seek reimbursement for consequential and other damages from us. Although we expressly disclaim any liability for consequential or other damages in connection with our sale of these products, this disclaimer may not protect us from claims for damages from our customers and these claims may adversely affect our relationships with our customers or our reputation generally. In addition, our insurance coverage limits may not be adequate to protect us against any product liability claims that arise. This insurance is expensive and may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

 
Our stock price is highly volatile and our stock price could experience substantial declines and our management’s attention may be diverted from more productive tasks.

      The stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. In addition, the per share price of our common stock has experienced significant volatility since we have been a public company. Many factors may cause the market price for our common stock to decline, including:

  •  revenues and operating results failing to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors in any quarter,
 
  •  downward revisions in securities analysts’ estimates or changes in general market conditions,
 
  •  changes in our senior management personnel,
 
  •  distribution or sale of shares of Moldflow stock by insiders or affiliated persons,
 
  •  technological innovations by competitors or in competing technologies,
 
  •  a decrease in the demand for our common stock,
 
  •  investor perception of our industry or our prospects, and
 
  •  general technology or economic trends.

      In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been the subjects of securities class action litigation. We may be involved in securities class action litigation in the

24


Table of Contents

future. Such litigation often results in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources and could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

      We develop our products in research centers in Australia, the United Kingdom, France and the United States. We sell our products globally through our direct sales force and indirect distributor channels. As a result, our financial results are affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates, political climate and weak economic conditions in foreign markets. In the future, we expect to increase our international operations in our existing markets and in geographic locations where we do not have any operations now.

      We collect amounts representing a substantial portion of our revenues and pay amounts representing a substantial portion of our operating expenses in foreign currencies. As a result, changes in currency exchange rates from time to time may affect our operating results. We engage in hedging transactions designed to reduce our exposure to changes in currency exchange rates. We cannot assure you, however, that any efforts we make to hedge our exposure to currency exchange rate changes will be successful.

      We invest our excess cash balances in highly liquid, interest bearing instruments. These instruments expose us to interest rate risk and, as a result, changes in interest rates from time to time may affect our operating results. These instruments, along with our accounts receivable, also potentially expose us to credit risk. Our investments are limited to high-grade corporate debt securities, government issued debt, municipal debt securities, money market funds, and similar high quality instruments to mitigate this credit risk. The credit risk associated with accounts receivable is minimal due to the large number of customers and their broad dispersion over geographic regions and industries.

Item 4.     Controls and Procedures

      As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we have evaluated with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we and our management recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that they believe that, as of September 27, 2003, our disclosure controls and procedures were reasonably effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. In compliance with the rules, we intend to continue to review and document our disclosure controls and procedures, including our internal control over financial reporting, on an ongoing basis, and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
