RSA SECURITY INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RSA Security Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2004.
In the opinion of our management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements, and reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates The preparation of our consolidated financial statements is in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash Equivalents All highly liquid investments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered cash equivalents.
Marketable Securities Marketable securities are classified as available for sale and recorded at market value using the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax effects. Realized gains or losses are determined based on the specific identified cost of the securities. Any unrealized losses that are considered to be other than temporary are charged immediately to the income statement.
Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when earned. We recognize revenue from the sale of products when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is considered probable. We recognize revenue from licensing other intellectual property when evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection is considered probable. We reduce revenue by provisions for estimated returns. When arrangements contain multiple elements and vendor specific objective evidence of fair value exists for all undelivered elements, we recognize revenue for the delivered elements using the residual method. For arrangements containing multiple elements where vendor specific objective evidence of fair value does not exist for all undelivered elements, we defer revenue for the delivered and undelivered elements until vendor specific objective evidence of fair value exists or all elements have been delivered. We recognize revenue upon the shipment of product to our stocking distributors, net of estimated returns. We defer maintenance services revenue, whether sold separately or as part of a multiple element arrangement, and recognize it ratably over the term of the maintenance contract, generally twelve months.
Some of our arrangements contain bundled products that include a term software license, an RSA SecurID® authenticator and support for the term of the license. As these arrangements contain multiple elements where vendor specific objective evidence of fair value does not exist for all undelivered elements, we record these arrangements as deferred revenue and recognize revenue ratably on a monthly basis over the term of the license agreement.
For arrangements that contain an initial prepaid license fee with the payment of ongoing royalties, we recognize revenue on the initial prepaid license fee when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection is considered probable. The ongoing royalties are recognized at the time a reliable estimate can be made of the actual usage

that has occurred, provided collection is probable. Annual license fees or onetime license fee arrangements typically contain non-refundable terms; therefore we recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection is considered probable.
We recognize revenue allocated to professional service elements as the services are performed. When customization is essential to the functionality of the licensed software, then both the software license and professional services revenue are recognized under the percentage of completion method, which requires revenue to be recognized as a percentage of the project completed. We recognize revenue and gross profit using labor hours as an input measure of progress to completion on these arrangements.
Allowance for Sales Returns Allowances for estimated sales returns and allowances on products and maintenance and professional service revenue are recorded in the same period as the related revenue is recorded. We base these estimates on historical sales returns, analysis of credit memo data, current economic trends, product line and customer industry and other known factors.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. We analyze accounts receivable and the composition of the accounts receivable aging, historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness, concentration levels, current economic trends, regional factors, other known factors, and changes in customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Bad debt expense, if any, is included in marketing and selling expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income. The allowance for doubtful accounts is included in accounts receivable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and was as follows:

$ | 1,729 | $ | 1,814 | ||||
Allowance for Warranty Obligations Our standard practice is to provide a warranty on all RSA SecurID® hardware authenticators for the customer selected programmed life of the authenticator (generally two to five years) and to replace any defective authenticators (other than authenticators damaged by a users abuse or alteration) free of charge. We sell our other products to customers with a warranty for product defects for a specified period, generally ninety days. We provide reserves for warranty obligations based on historical failure and defective return rates and include these costs as a component of product cost of revenue. We reevaluate the estimate of warranty and defective return obligations, including the assumptions about estimated failure and return rates, each quarter.
During 2002 and 2003, our quarterly analysis of historical failure and defective return rates indicated that certain authenticators produced between 2000 and 2002 were subject to higher defect and failure rates. We increased our provisions for warranty expense accordingly during those periods. We continue to monitor warranty claims and will reevaluate our estimate of warranty and defective return obligations in future periods, which may result in recording additional warranty expense.
We monitor warranty claims and address defects through our quality and design processes, which are managed by our product engineering, quality control and technical support organizations. During the last several years, we have increased resources and initiated new programs to build an expanded family of high performance authentication solutions. These programs have resulted in the redesign and re-engineering of our authenticator products to improve their performance and reliability by incorporating new microprocessors, electronics, firmware and batteries with longer lives.

Income Taxes We provide for income taxes for interim periods based on the estimated effective tax rate for the full year. We record cumulative adjustments to tax provisions in the interim period in which a change in the estimated annual effective rate is determined. The effective tax rate calculation does not include the effect of discrete events that may occur during the year. The effect of these events, if any, is reflected in the tax provision for the quarter in which the event occurs and is not considered in the calculation of our annual effective tax rate.
Earnings Per Share We compute basic earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. We compute diluted earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of potential outstanding shares, including options and warrants, using the treasury stock method. Diluted loss per share excludes the effect of equity instruments including convertible debentures, options and warrants, when such instruments are antidilutive.
Equity instruments that were considered antidilutive and therefore were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share include the following shares of our common stock:

Convertible debentures |
| 5,820,298 |
Stock-Based Compensation Plans - Stock-based compensation cost is accounted for using the intrinsic value method. Under this method, compensation expense, if any, is recognized based on the difference between the fair value of the underlying stock and the price of the option at the measurement date. Measurement date is defined as that time when both the number of shares and the exercise price become known. The measurement date is generally the date the award is made.
Pro Forma Disclosure Had we recognized compensation expense for our stock option and purchase plans based on the fair value for awards under our plans, pro forma net income (loss) and pro forma net income (loss) per share would have been as follows:

Share Repurchase Authorization We announced in September 2004 that our Board of Directors had authorized the repurchase of up to 6,700,000 shares of our common stock during 2004 and 2005. We may make repurchases in the open market or through negotiated transactions from time to time depending on market conditions. During the three months ended March 31, 2005 we repurchased 750,000 shares for $12,441. We have repurchased an aggregate of 800,000 shares for $13,352 as of March 31, 2005, of which we have reissued 216,251 shares in the connection with the exercise of stock options. The net amount of these shares is reflected as treasury stock on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Future Accounting Pronouncements On December 16, 2004, FASB issued a revision to SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation titled Share-Based Payment. This revision requires that all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations based on their fair values. The revision will be effective for us at the beginning of our next fiscal year. The standard offers alternative methods of adopting the final rule. We are evaluating which alternative methods we will use and the impact on our financial statements. However, adoption will significantly increase compensation expense within the consolidated statement of operations.

We have determined that the gross unrealized losses on our investment securities at March 31, 2005 are temporary in nature. We review our investments to identify and evaluate investments that have indications of possible impairment. Factors considered in determining whether a loss is temporary include the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than the cost basis, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investee, and our intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. All of our fixed income securities are rated investment grade or better. As of March 31, 2005, 63 marketable securities held were in gross unrealized loss positions.
Loss from investing activities includes the following losses:

5. Restructurings
During 2002 and 2001, we evaluated and initiated restructuring actions in order to consolidate some of our operations, enhance operational efficiency and reduce expenses. These actions resulted in total restructuring charges of $56,036 and $19,956 in the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Restructuring charges recorded during 2002 and 2001 consisted of facility exit costs, costs associated with the sale and liquidation of our Swedish development operations, and severance and other costs associated with the reduction of employee headcount.
During 2004 we recorded a charge of $1,601 related to revised estimates of facility exit costs. We revised this estimate of facility exit costs based upon the terms of finalized subleases and associated costs obtained during the second quarter of 2004. We also reduced our restructuring reserve by $819 during the three months ended December 31, 2004, when we determined our remaining severance and operating costs were lower than originally estimated.
Restructuring charges accrued and unpaid at March 31, 2005 were as follows:

6. Segments
We have one reportable segment, e-Security Solutions. The operations of the e-Security Solutions segment consist of the sale of software licenses, hardware, maintenance and professional services through two product groups, Enterprise solutions and Developer solutions. Enterprise solutions includes sales of RSA SecurID® authentication credentials, RSA® Authentication Manager (formerly known as RSA ACE/Server®) software, RSA® Certificate Manager (formerly known as RSA Keon®) software, RSA ClearTrust® software, and maintenance and professional services associated with these products. Developer solutions includes sales of RSA BSAFE® encryption software and protocol products, RSA Certificate Manager components, and maintenance and professional services associated with these products. The segment was determined primarily based upon how management views and evaluates our operations.
Our operations are conducted throughout the world. Operations in the United States represent approximately 54% of total revenue. Our operations in other countries have been grouped by regional area below. The following tables present information about e-Security Solutions revenue:

7. Litigation
On or about February 2, 2001, Leon Stambler filed a complaint for patent infringement in U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against RSA Security, VeriSign, Inc., First Data Corporation, Openwave Systems Inc., and Omnisky Corporation Case Number 01-0065. In his complaint, Mr. Stambler alleged that certain products marketed by each of the defendants infringed various patents that he owns, and he sought unspecified damages as well as a preliminary and permanent injunction enjoining the defendants from infringing the claims asserted. The trial took place in March 2003, and the jury determined that our products did not infringe Mr. Stamblers patents. On April 17, 2003, the court entered final judgment in our favor on all claims of non-infringement. On or about December 8, 2003, Mr. Stambler filed a notice of appeal to the United States Court of Appeals. On or about February 11, 2005, the Court of Appeals issued a ruling denying Mr. Stamblers request for a new trial and affirming the lower courts ruling in our favor. We do not yet know whether Mr. Stambler will seek any further appeals; even if he does so, we believe that the disposition of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our continuing operations and consolidated financial position.
On or about April 11, 2005, Prism Technologies LLC filed a complaint for patent infringement in U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against RSA Security, VeriSign, Inc., Netegrity, Inc., Computer Associates International, Inc. and Johnson & Johnson Case Number 05-214. In its complaint, Prism Technologies alleges that our RSA ClearTrust product and certain products of each of the other defendants infringe a patent that Prism Technologies owns, and Prism Technologies seeks unspecified damages as well as a permanent injunction enjoining the defendants from infringing its patent. We are currently evaluating Prism Technologies claims.
From time to time, we have been named as a defendant in other legal actions arising from our normal business activities, which we believe will not have a material adverse effect on us or our business.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
We make statements in this Report that are forward looking, that is, statements that are not historical facts but that convey projections about the future. For example, statements containing the words believes, anticipates, plans, expects, and similar expressions may be forward-looking statements. However, we caution investors not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements in this Report because these statements speak only as of the date when made. Furthermore, we are not obligated to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. There are a number of factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements, including without limitation the factors described below under the caption Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results.
Overview
RSA Security Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries are focused on helping customers confidently protect and manage identities and information access. With more than 17,000 customers worldwide, RSA Security has a 20-year track record of award-winning solutions. Built to work seamlessly in heterogeneous environments, our portfolio of identity access and management solutions is designed to inspire customers to confidently exploit the full power of the Internet as well as secure access to valuable information assets in their enterprise networks.
We derive our operating revenue primarily from two distinct product groups: Enterprise solutions, which includes RSA SecurID® authentication credentials, RSA® Authentication Manager (formerly known as RSA ACE/Server®) software, RSA ClearTrust® software, RSA® Certificate Manager (formerly known as RSA Keon®) software, and maintenance and professional services associated with those products; and Developer solutions, which includes RSA BSAFE® encryption software and protocol products, RSA Certificate Manager components, and maintenance and professional services associated with those products.
We believe sales of our products are and will be driven by two major trends: (1) enterprises Web-enabling their existing applications and (2) enterprises permitting secure and efficient access to internal resources, whether remotely or within the enterprise. Sales of our RSA SecurID authentication credentials continue to generate substantial revenue for us, while our less mature Enterprise software products are building revenue. We believe the availability of free, open source products that compete with our RSA BSAFE product line continues to put pressure on our Developer solutions revenue. We believe our product line synergies and the strength of our customer base create opportunities to sell additional products to existing customers. However, we have observed that information technology budgets remain constrained, which has had and could continue to have a direct effect on the sale of our products. In addition, some of our products, especially our Web access management products, have long and unpredictable sales cycles, in part because our customers may need to invest potentially substantial resources and modify their network infrastructures to take advantage of the products.
We continue to explore opportunities to sell our products into new markets, and we are currently focusing on two new market opportunities. First, although most of our customers continue to use our products to authenticate users accessing electronic resources remotely, from outside the enterprise, with the launch of our RSA SecurID for Microsoft® Windows® and RSA® Sign-On Manager solutions, some of our customers are using our products to authenticate users within the enterprise. Second, although the majority of our customers utilize our products to secure and to manage network and application access for their employees and partners, we have recently increased sales to customers, including internet service providers and financial institutions, who are also using our products to secure and manage access for their customers, including consumer customers. Today we see interest in consumer authentication broadening to many more types of consumer-facing applications, which we believe is driven by concerns about identity theft and privacy, and the desire to comply with information protection regulations. We believe that these expanded markets have the potential to generate incremental demand for our products.
Our Enterprise solutions customers typically place an initial order for a limited number of users, for either our RSA SecurID authenticators or any of our software products, and deploy additional authenticators or software licenses as their need for our products within their enterprise increases. Authenticators generally have a programmed life of two to five years, and as they expire, our customers typically place additional orders for replacement authenticators. We typically base our RSA Authentication Manager, RSA Certificate Manager and RSA ClearTrust software license fees on the number of users authorized under each customers license. In most cases, customers also enter into an annual customer support agreement for their software license at the time of their initial purchase and renew this support agreement annually. Our support agreement entitles our customers to license software upgrades and telephone support.
Our Developer solutions software licensing terms vary by product and customer. Typical licensing terms may include an initial
13
prepaid license fee and ongoing royalties paid as a percentage of the developers product or service revenue, or payment of annual license fees, or a single fully paid-up license fee. Often, our existing developer customers go on to license new software or technology from us or wish to increase the field of use rights for the technology they have already licensed. In such a case, we amend our license agreement with the customer and charge additional licensing fees, thus deriving additional revenue.
Our professional services group provides customers with project management, architecture and design, physical deployment, custom development, education and practitioner certification services. Customers typically pay for professional services either at a fixed price or at hourly or daily rates for the time it takes us to complete the project.
We have contracted with outside manufacturing organizations to produce our RSA SecurID hardware authenticators, and many of our products contain technology that is licensed from third parties. Our cost of revenue consists primarily of costs associated with the manufacture and delivery of RSA SecurID authenticators and royalty fees that we pay for the licensed technology. Cost of revenue also includes warranty obligation expense and labor and overhead costs associated with professional services, customer support, and production activities. Production costs include the programming labor, shipping, inspection and quality control functions associated with the RSA SecurID authenticators. We continue to work to establish new supplier relationships in order to increase the number of vendors from which we buy our authenticators and authenticator components, in order to reduce our vulnerability to potential supply problems.
We distribute our products through direct sales to end user customers, and through indirect sales, including (i) sales to resellers and distributors that we ship directly to the end user customer and (ii) sales to distributors for stocking purposes. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, approximately 60% of our revenue was from sales to distributors and resellers shipped directly to the end user customers, approximately 32% of our revenue was from direct sales to end user customers, and approximately 8% of our revenue was from sales to stocking distributors. Our stocking distributors provide us with inventory level and point of sale reports on a monthly basis. Based upon these reports, we estimate that our stocking distributors typically hold approximately four weeks of inventory on hand in the distribution channel. Generally, our arrangements with our distributors and resellers are non-exclusive, and we currently have arrangements with more than 1,000 distributors and resellers. In April 2005, we announced a major new program for our resellers and distributors. This program increases the incentives for our resellers and distributors to devote resources to our products and programs and to sell to new customers, which we believe will generate increased indirect sales for us.
Our direct sales to our customers in countries outside of the United States are denominated in either U.S. dollars or local currency, with the majority of our sales denominated in U.S. dollars. Where we do invoice customers in local currency, we are exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations from the time of invoicing until collection occurs. We are also exposed to foreign currency fluctuations between the time we collect in U.S. dollars and the time we pay our operating expenses in local currency. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates could affect the profitability and cash flows in U.S. dollars of our products sold in international markets.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, sales returns, allowance for doubtful accounts, intangible assets, income taxes, financing operations, warranty obligations, restructurings, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. However, our actual results could differ from those estimates.
We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition We derive our revenue primarily from two sources: (i) sales of products, including hardware and software licenses, and (ii) services, including maintenance, support and professional services. Our management must make and use judgments and estimates in connection with the revenue recognized in any reporting period. We recognize revenue from the sale of products when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is considered probable. We reduce revenue by provisions for estimated sales returns. The amount and timing of our revenue for any period may materially differ if our management made different judgments or utilized different estimates in establishing our allowance
14
for sales returns. An increase in our allowance for sales returns would reduce our revenue in the period for which the increase is recorded.
For all sales, we use a binding contract, purchase order or another form of documented agreement as evidence of an arrangement with the customer. Sales to our distributors are evidenced by a master agreement governing the relationship, together with binding purchase orders on a transaction-by-transaction basis. We consider delivery to occur when we ship the product, so long as title and risk of loss have passed to the customer.
At the time of a transaction, we assess whether the sale amount is fixed or determinable based upon the terms of the documented agreement. If we determine the fee is not fixed or determinable, we recognize revenue when the fee is fixed. We assess if collection is probable based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the creditworthiness of the customer. If we determine that collection is not probable, we do not record revenue until such time as collection becomes probable, which is generally upon the receipt of cash.
We do not generally include acceptance provisions in arrangements with customers; however, if an arrangement includes an acceptance provision, we recognize revenue upon the customers acceptance of the product, which occurs upon the earlier of receipt of a written customer acceptance or expiration of the acceptance period.
We recognize revenue upon shipment of product to stocking distributors who have only limited return rights, and record a sales return reserve to provide for estimated product returns. We estimate product returns from distributors based upon historical experience.
When arrangements contain multiple elements and vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value exists for all undelivered elements, we recognize revenue for the delivered elements using the residual method. We base our determination of VSOE of fair value of each of the undelivered elements in multi-element arrangements on either the price we charge when the same element is sold separately or the price established by the members of our management, who have the relevant authority to set prices, for an element not yet sold separately. For arrangements containing multiple elements where VSOE of fair value does not exist for all undelivered elements, we defer revenue for the delivered and undelivered elements until VSOE of fair value exists or all elements have been delivered.
Some of our arrangements contain bundled products which include a term software license, an RSA SecurID® authenticator and support for the term of the license. As these arrangements contain multiple elements where vendor specific objective evidence of fair value does not exist for all undelivered elements, we record these arrangements as deferred revenue and recognize revenue ratably on a monthly basis over the term of the license agreement.
We defer maintenance service revenue, whether sold separately or as part of a multiple element arrangement, and recognize it ratably over the term of the maintenance contract, generally twelve months.
We recognize revenue allocated to professional service elements as the services are performed. When the customization is essential to the functionality of the licensed software, then both the software license and professional services revenue are recognized under the percentage of completion method, which requires revenue to be recognized as a percentage of the project completed. We recognize revenue and gross profit using labor hours as an input measure of progress to completion on these arrangements.
Allowance for Sales Returns - We record allowances for estimated sales returns and allowances on products and maintenance and professional service related revenue in the same period as the related revenue is recorded. We base these estimates on historical sales returns, analysis of credit memo data, current economic trends, product line and customer industry data and other known factors. Our historical experience with sales returns varies by product line depending on the customer, industry and market. We must make judgments and estimates in connection with establishing the allowances for estimated sales returns in any reporting period. The amount and timing of our revenue and our cash flows for any reporting period may materially differ if actual sales returns and allowances differ from our estimates.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. We analyze accounts receivable and the composition of the accounts receivable aging, historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends, regional factors and other known factors when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Based upon our analysis and estimates of the uncollectibility of our accounts receivable, we record an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts when the prospect of collecting a specific account receivable becomes doubtful. Actual results could differ from the allowances for doubtful accounts recorded, and this difference may have a
15
material effect on our financial position and results of operations. We record recoveries of accounts previously written off as uncollectible as increases to the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Allowance for Warranty Obligations - Our standard practice is to provide a warranty on all RSA SecurID hardware authenticators for the customer selected programmed life of the authenticator (generally two to five years) and to replace any defective authenticators (other than authenticators damaged by a users abuse or alteration) free of charge. We sell our other products to customers with a warranty for product defects for a specified period, generally ninety days. We provide reserves for warranty obligations based on historical failure and defective return rates, and include these costs as a component of product cost of revenue. We reevaluate the estimate of warranty and defective return obligations, including the assumptions about estimated failure and return rates, each quarter.
During 2002 and 2003, our analysis of historical failure and defective return rates indicated that certain authenticators produced between 2000 and 2002 were subject to higher defect and failure rates than we had previously experienced. We will continue to monitor warranty claims and reevaluate our estimate of warranty and defective return obligations in future periods, which may result in our recording additional warranty expense. Actual warranty returns could differ from the allowance for warranty obligations recorded.
We monitor warranty claims and address defects through our quality and design processes, which are managed by our product engineering, quality control and technical support organizations. During the last several years, we have increased resources and initiated new programs to build an expanded family of high performance authentication solutions. These programs have resulted in the redesign and reengineering of authenticator products to improve performance and reliability by incorporating new microprocessors, electronics, firmware and batteries with longer lives.
Income Taxes - The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate, including those outside the United States, which may be subject to certain risks that ordinarily would not be expected in the United States. A change in our estimate of income by jurisdiction could cause a change in our annual effective tax rate. The income tax accounting process involves our estimating our actual current exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of certain items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. We must then record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. We base the valuation allowance on our estimates of taxable income by jurisdiction in which we operate and the period over which our deferred tax assets will be recoverable. If actual results differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods, we may need to adjust our valuation allowance, which could materially impact our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Valuation of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets - In assessing the recoverability of our intangible assets, we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and earnings and other factors used to determine the fair value of the respective assets. We will record an impairment charge in the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds their fair value. We generally determine fair value based on estimated discounted future cash flows. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges against these assets in the reporting period in which the impairment is determined. Any such impairment charge could be significant and could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations. We perform an annual test for impairment of our goodwill as of November 30 of each year, and if events or circumstances occur that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the goodwill below its carrying amount, will perform an interim impairment test. We completed the required annual goodwill impairment test as of November 30, 2004, by comparing the carrying amount of the enterprise to the estimated fair value of the enterprise. Estimated fair value of the enterprise was determined based upon the market multiple valuation method, which requires that we utilize estimates of future cash flows, revenue and earnings. As of November 30, 2004, the fair value of the enterprise was greater than the carrying amount of the enterprise. Therefore, our annual goodwill impairment test performed as of November 30, 2004 did not result in an impairment of our goodwill. No events have occurred since November 2004 that would suggest that an impairment of our intangible assets exists. At March 31, 2005, we had approximately $172.7 million of goodwill, which accounted for approximately 28% of our total assets. Any future adverse event could cause our intangible assets to become impaired which would result in a decrease to the carrying value of our intangible assets and could have a material effect on our results of operations and consolidated financial position.
Restructurings-During 2002 and 2001, we initiated consolidation of certain operations in order to enhance operational efficiency and reduce expenses, and recorded significant restructuring charges in connection with these actions. Restructuring charges totaled $56.0
16
million in 2002 and $20.0 million in 2001. These restructuring charges and our continued analysis of our facilities require us to make estimates based upon real estate market conditions, rental rates, future corporate requirements, general economic conditions and future estimated cash flows. Included in the restructuring charges recorded in 2002 were facility exit costs of $44.0 million, which represented estimated shortfalls of sublease rental income compared to lease payments due through 2009 under certain exited facilities lease agreements, impaired leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures, and other associated facilities expenses. We based our initial estimates related to anticipated sublease market rates for excess facilities on assumptions regarding the time period required to locate and contract with suitable subtenants and base these assumptions on market trend information analysis. During 2004 we recorded a charge of $1.6 million related to revised estimates of facility exit costs. We revised this estimate of facility exit costs based upon the terms of finalized subleases and associated costs obtained during the second quarter of 2004. We also reduced our restructuring reserve by $0.8 million during the three months ended December 31, 2004, when we determined our remaining severance and operating costs were lower than originally estimated.
We continue to monitor and assess our facility obligations, real estate markets and our operating expenses. If the assumptions for the estimates used in our restructuring reserve change due to changes in the real estate and sublease markets, or due to the terms of sublease agreements that we have obtained, or the ability of our subtenants to meet their obligations the ultimate restructuring expenses for these facilities could vary by material amounts, and could cause us to record additional or revise previously recorded restructuring charges in future reporting periods which could have a material effect on our results of operations and consolidated financial position.
Future Accounting Pronouncements - On December 16, 2004, FASB issued a revision to SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation titled Share-Based Payment. This revision requires that all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations based on their fair values. The revision will be effective for us at the beginning of our next fiscal year. The standard offers alternative methods of adopting the final rule. We are evaluating which alternative methods we will use and the impact on the financial statements. However, adoption will significantly increase compensation expense within the consolidated statement of operations.

| Our balance sheet remains strong with cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $282.3 million at March 31, 2005, compared to $289.7 million of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities at December 31, 2004 and $219.0 million of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities at March 31, 2004. We repurchased 750,000 shares of our stock for $12.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2005. |

We believe the increase in our total revenue in the first quarter of 2005, as compared to the first quarter of 2004, was primarily attributable to several major factors:
| We have observed that businesses are continuing the trend toward permitting remote access to internal resources and Web-enabling existing applications. | |||
| Our identity and access management solutions promote our product synergies and enable us to generate additional revenue by selling additional products to existing customers. | |||
| An increasing number of small and mid-size businesses are adopting our authentication products. | |||
| Some of our existing larger customers have expanded their deployments of our products. | |||
| We sell to a number of vertical markets and are not dependent on any one sector for our revenue. |
Although our total revenue increased in the first quarter of 2005, as compared to the first quarter of 2004, our software revenue decreased slightly. We believe the decrease in software revenue was primarily due to slower than anticipated uptake rates and longer than anticipated sales cycles on our larger and more complex software deals in the first quarter of 2005.
We believe that our future total revenue will be influenced by several major factors:
| As new, lower cost remote access technologies become available and as employment rates increase, we believe that we will benefit with increased total product revenue. | |||
| We believe that governmental regulations regarding the access to and distribution of private information will drive demand for our products. For example, we believe our revenue from the healthcare and financial services markets will continue to increase due to required compliance with industry-specific privacy and security laws and standards. | |||
| We believe that as the United States government proceeds with its agenda of increasing awareness and funding of cyber-security issues and focusing on homeland security, we may benefit with increased revenue. | |||
| However, information technology budgets continue to be constrained, and the continued uncertainty in the economy and global affairs may affect revenue generated from the sales of our products in future quarters. |
Our RSA SecurID authentication product line generates a substantial portion of our revenue. RSA SecurID credentials (includes hardware and software, smart cards and USB tokens) licensed, in thousands, were as follows:

The increase in number of credentials licensed in the first quarter of 2005, as compared to the first quarter of 2004, contributed to the increased revenue from our RSA SecurID authentication product line. We believe our RSA SecurID authentication products generate and will continue to generate substantial revenue for us.
We believe the increase in our Web access management revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the comparable period in 2004, is due in part to an increase in the number of companies allowing access of their information and applications by internal and external users. We believe that our Web access management revenue will continue to grow due to introductions of new enhancements to our products, including the RSA Federal Identity Manager, strong technology and strategic partnerships. In addition, we have dedicated a portion of our sales force to focus on selling our emerging products.
The encryption revenue remained flat during the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the comparable period in 2004. We believe that Developer solutions revenue may benefit from companies needs to secure their transactions due to various regulatory requirements.
The increase in service revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to the comparable period in 2004, was primarily attributed to growth of new products and licenses coupled with a high rate of renewals of annual maintenance contracts related to sale of products in prior periods.
We believe the government sector of our business may increase in the future as government agencies seek e-security partners in order to execute their cyber-security agenda. Revenue from the government sector of our business increased 3.2% during the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the comparable period in 2004.

Gross Profit
The following tables set forth the gross profit and gross margin for products and maintenance and professional services:

The decrease in total gross margin for the first quarter of 2005, as compared to the first quarter of 2004, was primarily a result of the greater mix of services revenue as a percentage of our total revenue.
The decrease in gross margin for products for the first quarter of 2005, as compared to the same period of 2004, was primarily due to a decrease in software revenue year over year, which typically has higher margin than other products.
The increase in gross profit margin from maintenance and professional services in the first quarter of 2005, as compared to first quarter of 2004, was primarily attributable to increased maintenance revenue achieved on decreased customer support costs.
Research and Development
Total research and development expenses increased 8.5% in the first quarter of 2005 to $15.9 million from $14.7 million in the first quarter of 2004, and represented 21.1% and 20.4% of total revenue for the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively. The increase in research and development expenses of $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2005 as compared to the first quarter of 2004 resulted from increased payroll and consulting expenses associated with our continued allocation of resources towards investing in our future product offerings.
Marketing and Selling
Total marketing and selling expenses increased 10.7% in the first quarter of 2005 to $29.1 million from $26.3 million in the first quarter of 2004, and represented 38.5% and 36.6% of total revenue for the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively. For the first quarter of 2005, as compared to the first quarter of 2004, approximately $4.7 million of the increase in marketing and selling expenses was due to increased overhead costs and approximately $0.8 million for commission expenses on increased revenue, partially offset by a decrease in labor costs of approximately $2.0 million.
General and Administrative
Total general and administrative expenses increased 10.2% in the first quarter of 2005 to $8.4 million from $7.6 million in the first quarter of 2004, and represented 11.0% and 10.5% of total revenue for the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses of $0.8 million for the first quarter of 2005, as compared to the first quarter of 2004, was due to increased payroll and consulting fees of $0.6 million and increased overhead expenses of $0.2 million.
Restructurings
During 2002 and 2001, we evaluated and initiated restructuring actions in order to consolidate some of our operations, enhance operational efficiency and reduce expenses. These actions resulted in total restructuring charges of $56.0 million and $20.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. We continue to monitor and assess the real estate market and our operating expenses. Based upon our ongoing assessments of our facility obligations and the rental real estate market we may have to record additional restructuring charges or revise previously recorded restructuring charges in future reporting periods.
Restructuring charges recorded during 2002 and 2001 consisted of facility exit costs, costs associated with the sale and liquidation of our Swedish development operations, and severance and other costs associated with the reduction of employee headcount.
21
During 2004 we recorded a charge of $1.6 million related to revised estimates of facility exit costs. We revised this estimate of facility exit costs based upon the terms of finalized subleases and associated costs obtained during the second quarter of 2004. We also reduced our restructuring reserve by $0.8 million during the three months ended December 31, 2004, when we determined our remaining severance and operating costs were lower than originally estimated.
Restructuring activity during the three months ended March 31, 2005 was as follows:

The decrease in interest expense in the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the comparable period in 2004 was due to the conversions to common stock of $80.0 million of our convertible debentures in June and October 2004. Accordingly, we are no longer required to pay interest on these debentures. The increase in investment income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 compared to the comparable period in 2004 was due to higher cash and marketable securities investment balances and increasing investment yields.

Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $2.0 million during the first quarter of 2005 compared to a provision of $1.6 million during the first quarter of 2004. Our effective tax rate increased to 22.0% for the first quarter of 2005 from 20.0% for the first quarter of 2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had $54.2 million in cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2005, consisting primarily of operating cash and short-term investments. This represents a decrease of $14.0 million in cash and cash equivalents primarily due to our using $12.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 to repurchase shares of our common stock.
Cash provided by operations of $4.8 million during 2004 consisted primarily of net income of $7.2 million.
Any increase or decrease in our accounts receivable balance and accounts receivable days outstanding (calculated as net accounts receivable divided by revenue per day) will affect our cash flow from operations and liquidity. Our accounts receivable and accounts receivable days outstanding may increase due to changes in factors such as the amount of international sales and length of customers payment cycle. We also record deferred maintenance billings as accounts receivable, and the timing of these billings affects the accounts receivable days outstanding. Historically, international and indirect customers pay at a slower rate than domestic and direct customers. An increase in revenue generated from international and indirect customers may increase our accounts receivable days outstanding and accounts receivable balance. If the economy deteriorates, we may observe an increase in the length of our customers payment cycle. To address increases in accounts receivable balance and to improve cash flow, we may from time to time take actions to encourage earlier payment of receivables. Discounts offered to customers to encourage payment are deducted from revenue. To the extent that our accounts receivable balance increases, we may incur increased bad debt expense and increased estimates for reserves against revenue and will be subject to greater general credit risks.
Cash used for investing activities of $9.9 million during the first quarter of 2005 consisted primarily of $64.3 million of cash used for the purchase of marketable securities and $2.2 million of cash used to purchase property and equipment and other long term assets, which was partially offset by $57.2 million of cash provided by the sale and maturities of marketable securities. Our plans for future uses of cash may include acquisitions of other entities or technologies and additional purchases of property and equipment. We anticipate capital expenditures will be primarily for purchases of property and equipment and will aggregate approximately $6 to $8 million for the remaining nine months of 2005. We expect to fund our capital expenditures from cash on hand and cash generated from operations.
Cash used for financing activities of $8.8 million during the first quarter of 2005 consisted primarily of $12.4 million of cash used to repurchase shares of our common stock, partially offset by $3.6 million of proceeds from employee exercises and purchases under our stock option and employee stock purchase plans.

We have commitments for various operating leases worldwide that expire at various times through 2017 and that are shown above net of existing sublease agreements, excluding facility exit costs included in restructuring charges. The lease commitments of $134.6 million shown also include lease commitments of $14.0 million related to certain exited facilities that have not been reserved for in restructuring charges, which represents our estimated sublease income from these facilities from the end of the period reserved to the end of the lease term. Restructuring commitments shown above are primarily for facility exit costs of up to 57 months of minimum lease payments due under certain excess facilities lease agreements, net of related sublease agreements. Purchase obligations relate to inventory commitments.
We currently have no debt and we believe that cash generated from our operating activities will be sufficient to fund our working capital requirements, including our restructuring liabilities, through at least the next twelve months. We anticipate that current cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and cash generated from the exercise of employee options and employee stock purchase plans will be adequate to fund our planned capital and financing expenditures for at least the next twelve months.
We provide e-security solutions to various customers in diverse industries. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and maintain allowances for potential credit losses. We had two significant customers who are distributors, whose aggregate balances accounted for approximately 13% and 19% of our total accounts receivable as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.
We are currently under audit by the United States Internal Revenue Service (the IRS) for the years 1996 through 2002. The audit was substantially complete at December 31, 2004. We expect to receive a cash refund within the next nine to twelve months as a result of the IRS audit. The impact of this refund has not been reflected in the financial statements as, although substantially complete, the IRS has not yet issued a final audit report. The refund is considered a discrete event and its impact will be reflected in the financial statements in the quarter in which the final audit report is issued.
Our plans for future uses of cash may include additional acquisitions of other entities or technologies, additional purchases of property and equipment, inventory, and stock repurchases pursuant to the stock repurchase program announced in September 2004. We anticipate that our capital expenditures for the remainder of 2005 will be approximately $6 to $8 million and will be primarily for purchases of property and equipment. We expect to fund our capital expenditures from cash on hand and cash generated from operations.
Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results
Our operating results tend to fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Our quarterly operating results have fluctuated in the past and may fluctuate significantly in the future. A variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, can cause these fluctuations, including, among others:
| the size, timing and shipment of individual orders for our products; | |||
| changes in our operating expenses; | |||
| the timing of the introduction or enhancement of our products and our competitors products; | |||
| customers deferring their orders in anticipation of the introduction of new products by us or our competitors; | |||
| market acceptance of new products; | |||
| changes in the mix of products sold; | |||
| changes in product pricing, including changes in competitors pricing policies; |
24
| development and performance of our direct and indirect distribution channels and changes in the mix of vertical markets to which we sell our products; | |||
| the amount and timing of charges relating to the impairment or loss of value of some of our assets, especially goodwill and intangible assets; | |||
| the timing of personnel departures and new hires and the rate at which new personnel become productive; and | |||
| general economic conditions. |
We may not be able to achieve, sustain or grow our profitability from quarter to quarter. Because our operating expenses are based on anticipated revenue levels and a high percentage of our expenses are fixed, a small variation in when revenue is recognized can cause significant variations in operating results from quarter to quarter. Our business has historically tended to be seasonal, with the last quarter of the year having the highest amount of revenue and the first quarter of the year having the lowest amount of revenue.
Some of our products have long and unpredictable sales cycles, which may impact our quarterly operating results. Transactions for some of our products, especially our Web access management products, often involve large expenditures by our customers. The sales cycles for these transactions can be long and unpredictable due to a number of uncertainties such as:
| customers willingness to invest potentially substantial resources and modify their network infrastructures to take advantage of our products; | |||
| customers budgetary constraints; | |||
| the need to educate potential customers about our products capabilities; | |||
| the timing of customers budget cycles; | |||
| delays caused by customers internal review processes; and | |||
| for sales to the federal government, federal regulatory, approval and purchasing requirements. |
Our stock price has been volatile and is likely to remain volatile. From March 31, 2004 through April 22, 2005 our stock price has ranged from a per share high of $23.91 to a low of $10.31. A number of factors may contribute to the volatility of our stock price, including:
| our ability to meet the expectations of brokerage firms, industry analysts and investors with respect to our operating and financial results; | |||
| our public announcements and our competitors public announcements; | |||
| the publics perception of the strength of the e-security solutions market and technology companies generally; | |||
| litigation developments; | |||
| the volatility of the stock market in general and of the technology sector in particular; and | |||
| general economic conditions. |
If the market for e-security solutions does not continue to grow, then demand for our products may decrease. The market for some of our e-security solutions is continuing to develop, and demand for our products depends on, among other things:
| the perceived ability of our products to address real customer problems; | |||
| the perceived quality, price, availability and interoperability of our products as compared to our competitors products; | |||
| the markets perception of how easy or difficult it is to deploy our products, especially in complex, heterogeneous network environments; | |||
| the continued evolution of electronic commerce as a viable means of conducting business; | |||
| market acceptance and use of new technologies and standards; | |||
| the ability of network infrastructures to support an increasing number of users and services; | |||
| the publics perception of the need for secure electronic commerce and communications over both wired and wireless computer networks; | |||
| the U.S. governments continued focus on e-security as a means to counteract terrorism and other hostile acts; | |||
| the pace of technological change and our ability to keep up with these changes; | |||
| the markets perception of our products ability to address the e-security aspects of various laws; and | |||
| general economic conditions, which, among other things, influence how much money our customers and potential customers are willing to allocate to their information technology budgets. |
25
Unless we keep up with the ongoing changes in e-security technology and standards, our products could become obsolete. Our success depends in part upon our ability to enhance our existing products and to introduce new, competitively priced products and solutions with features that meet changing market requirements, all in a timely and cost-effective manner. A number of factors, including the following, could have a negative impact on the success of our products:
| quality, reliability or security failures, which could result in product returns, delays in collecting accounts receivable, unexpected service or warranty expenses, reduced orders and a decline in our competitive position; | |||
| delays or difficulties in product development; | |||
| our competitors introduction of new products or services ahead of our new products or services, or their introduction of superior or cheaper products or services; | |||
| the availability of free, unpatented implementations of encryption algorithms and security protocols; | |||
| the markets failure to accept new technologies, including connected authentication devices, smart cards, enterprise strong authentication, Web access management, digital certificates and public and private key management; | |||
| our failure to include features in our products, or obtain industry and governmental certifications, that our customers or U.S. or foreign government regulators may require; | |||
| our failure to anticipate changes in customers requirements; and | |||
| the implementation of industry or government standards that are inconsistent with the technology embodied in our products. |
To remain competitive we may need to acquire other companies or purchase or license technology from third parties in order to introduce new products or enhance our existing products. We may not be able to find businesses that have the technology we need and, if we find such businesses, may not be able to purchase or license the technology on commercially favorable terms or at all. In addition, acquisitions and technology licenses are difficult to identify and complete for a number of reasons, including the cost of potential transactions, competition among prospective buyers and licensees and the need for regulatory approvals. In order to finance a potential transaction, we may need to raise additional funds by selling our stock or borrowing money. We may not be able to find financing on favorable terms, and the sale of our stock may result in the dilution of our existing stockholders.
If we fail to obtain a sufficient supply of high-quality RSA SecurID authenticators or components, then we may be unable to fill customer orders or may need to replace defective authenticators shipped to our customers. Problems with the availability or quality of our products could cause our revenue to decrease and our costs to increase, damage our reputation in the marketplace and subject us to damage claims from our customers. Examples of quality and possible availability problems include:
| In 2002 and 2003, our quarterly analysis of historical failure and defective return rates indicated that certain RSA SecurID authenticators produced between 2000 and 2002 were subject to higher defect and failure rates. | |||
| Many of our suppliers are located outside of the United States. If political, economic, health-related or natural events, such as the U.S. actions in Iraq or the 2004 earthquake and tsunami disasters in Asia, were to affect international trade, then we could experience difficulties in obtaining product components from our international suppliers. | |||
| We depend on a limited number of suppliers for some of our product components. If our existing suppliers were unable to provide us with a sufficient supply of quality components, then we would have to expend significant resources to find new suppliers, and it is possible that we would be unable to find new suppliers in a timely manner. |
If we fail to remain competitive, then we could lose market share for our established products or fail to gain market share for our less mature products. A number of competitive factors could cause us to lose potential sales or to sell our products at lower prices or at reduced margins, including, among others:
| Some of our competitors offer e-security products with features and functionality that our products do not currently offer or at a lower price than we offer. | |||
| Some computer and software companies that have not traditionally offered e-security products are now offering free or low-cost e-security products and functionality bundled with their own computer and software products. | |||
| Some of our current and potential competitors have greater financial, marketing and technical resources than we do, allowing them to leverage an installed customer base and distribution network, adapt more quickly to new technologies and changes in customer requirements, or devote greater resources to the promotion and sale of their products than we can. | |||
| Our industry is undergoing consolidation, with larger firms acquiring some of our competitors. A larger firm that acquires a competitor may be a greater threat to us than the original, smaller competitor was for the reasons described in the immediately preceding bullet point. |
26
| Our issued U.S. patents expire at various dates ranging from 2005 to 2018. When each of our patents expires, competitors may develop and sell products based on the same or similar technologies as those covered by the expired patent. | |||
| The expiration of some of our patents has also permitted the use and distribution of freeware, free versions of some of our technology, and we believe that some potential customers may be choosing to use freeware instead of buying our products. | |||
| Many companies have reduced their information technology budgets due to the current economic conditions, which could make competition more intense because we are competing for fewer customer dollars. |
International sales make up a significant portion of our business. International sales accounted for more than 40% of our total revenue in each of the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 and in the three months ended March 31, 2005. There are certain risks inherent in doing business internationally, including:
| foreign regulatory requirements and the burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws; | |||
| legal uncertainty regarding liability and the costs of resolving or litigating a dispute internationally; | |||
| difficulties in the enforcement of intellectual property rights; | |||
| export and import restrictions on cryptographic technology and products incorporating that technology; | |||
| difficulties and delays in establishing international distribution channels; | |||
| the need to tailor or localize our products in order to compete in particular international markets and to comply with foreign laws; | |||
| difficulties in collecting international accounts receivable; | |||
| fluctuations in currency exchange rates; | |||
| potentially adverse tax consequences, including restrictions on the repatriation of earnings; | |||
| tariffs and other trade barriers; and | |||
| political instability. |
During times when the global economy experiences weakness or uncertainty, we may have difficulty selling our products and services. The global economy, especially the technology sector, can be volatile, and an economic slowdown can have serious negative consequences for our business and operating results. For example, during a period of economic weakness or uncertainty, current or potential customers may defer purchases, go out of business or have insufficient capital to buy or pay for our products. Companies may also reduce their budgets for information technology products and services, which could reduce or eliminate some potential sales of our products and services. In addition, if our resellers and distributors experience financial difficulties due to an uncertain economy, then we may have difficulty selling to and collecting money from those resellers and distributors.
Our excess facilities are costly. We currently lease a number of excess, unused or under-used facilities, and our lease commitments for some of these facilities will not expire for several years. Although we have found sublessees for substantially all of these facilities, if any of our sublessees were to fail to pay their portion of the rent to our landlords due to financial difficulties or for any other reason, then we would be responsible for paying the full rental amount.
If we fail to protect our rights in our proprietary technology, competitors may use our technology, which could weaken our competitive position, reduce our revenue and increase our costs. We rely on a combination of patent, trade secret, copyright and trademark laws, software licenses, nondisclosure agreements and technical measures to protect our proprietary technology. However, despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized third parties may nonetheless succeed at:
| copying aspects of our products; | |||
| obtaining and using information that we regard as proprietary; or | |||
| infringing upon our patents and other proprietary rights. | |||
We rely on patents to protect our proprietary rights in our technology, but patents may not provide complete protection: |
| It is possible that any patent that we or our licensors hold might be invalidated, circumvented, challenged or terminated. | |||
| It is possible that patent examiners might reject the claims described in our pending or future patent applications. | |||
| The laws of some countries in which our products are now, or may in the future be, developed or sold may not protect our products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. | |||
| During the life of a patent, third parties may design and sell work-around solutions that accomplish the goals of our patented inventions but do not infringe the patents themselves. |
27
Our industry is highly litigious. From time to time, we have been involved in disputes with third parties who allege that our products may infringe intellectual property rights held by the third parties. Any litigation carries a number of significant risks, including:
| litigation is often very expensive, even if it is resolved in our favor; and | |||
| litigation diverts the attention of management and other resources. |
Moreover, if a court or other government agency rules against us in any intellectual property litigation, we might be required to:
| discontinue the use of certain processes; | |||
| cease the manufacture, use and sale of infringing products; | |||
| expend significant resources to develop non-infringing technology; | |||
| obtain licenses to the infringing technology; or | |||
| pay significant monetary damages. |
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to a variety of risks, including changes in the market value of our marketable securities, investments, our common stock and foreign exchange rates. Market fluctuations could impact our results of operations and financial condition. In the normal course of business, we employ established policies and procedures to manage these risks.
Our marketable securities and cash equivalent investments are generally high credit quality instruments, primarily U.S. Treasury and government agency obligations, taxable municipal obligations and money market investments with the average maturity of the total investment portfolio being two years or less. For securities where the interest rate is adjusted periodically, the reset or auction date will be used to determine the maximum maturity date. Accordingly, we believe that our potential interest rate exposure in investments is not material.
We also currently have no debt. Accordingly, we have no direct exposure to movements in interest rates.
As a global concern, we face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. These exposures may change over time as our business practices evolve and could have a material adverse impact on our financial results. Our primary exposures to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relate to sales and operating expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The operations of our foreign subsidiary in Ireland are measured using the U.S. dollar as its functional currency, while all of our other foreign branches and subsidiaries operations are measured using the local currencies as the functional currencies. Our sales to our customers in countries outside of the United States are primarily billed through Ireland and are thus denominated in U.S. dollars. When we do invoice customers in a non U.S. dollar currency, we are exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations from the time of invoice until collection occurs. In Ireland, where we invoice our customers in U.S. dollars, we pay our operating expenses in local currencies. Accordingly, fluctuations in the Euro relative to the U.S. dollar are reflected directly in our income statement. We are also exposed to foreign currency rate fluctuations between the time we collect in U.S. dollars and the time we pay our operating expenses in local currency. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could affect the profitability and cash flows in U.S. dollars of our products sold in international markets.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2005. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of March 31, 2005, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, in that they (1) were designed to ensure that material information relating to RSA Security, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to our CEO and CFO by others within RSA Security, particularly during the period in which this Report was being prepared, and (2) provide reasonable assurance that information that we are required to disclose in the reports we file under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms.
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the SEC rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On or about February 2, 2001, Leon Stambler filed a complaint for patent infringement in U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against RSA Security, VeriSign, Inc., First Data Corporation, Openwave Systems Inc., and Omnisky Corporation Case Number 01-0065. In his complaint, Mr. Stambler alleged that certain products marketed by each of the defendants infringed various patents that he owns, and he sought unspecified damages as well as a preliminary and permanent injunction enjoining the defendants from infringing the claims asserted. The trial took place in March 2003, and the jury determined that our products did not infringe Mr. Stamblers patents. On April 17, 2003, the court entered final judgment in our favor on all claims of non-infringement. On or about December 8, 2003, Mr. Stambler filed a notice of appeal to the United States Court of Appeals. On or about February 11, 2005, the Court of Appeals issued a ruling denying Mr. Stamblers request for a new trial and affirming the lower courts ruling in our favor. We do not yet know whether Mr. Stambler will seek any further appeals; even if he does so, we believe that the disposition of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our continuing operations and consolidated financial position.
On or about April 11, 2005, Prism Technologies LLC filed a complaint for patent infringement in U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against RSA Security, VeriSign, Inc., Netegrity, Inc., Computer Associates International, Inc. and Johnson & Johnson Case Number 05-214. In its complaint, Prism Technologies alleges that our RSA ClearTrust product and certain products of each of the other defendants infringe a patent that Prism Technologies owns, and Prism Technologies seeks unspecified damages as well as a permanent injunction enjoining the defendants from infringing its patent. We are currently evaluating Prism Technologies claims.
From time to time, we have been named as a defendant in other legal actions arising from our normal business activities, which we believe will not have a material adverse effect on us or our business.
