MANHATTAN ASSOCIATES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

1. Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of our management, these condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position at March 31, 2005, the results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2005 and changes in cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2005. The results for the three month period ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004.

2. Principles of Consolidation

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

3. Revenue Recognition

     Our revenue consists of revenues from the licensing and hosting of software, fees from consulting, implementation and training services (collectively, “professional services”), plus customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions, and sales of hardware.

     We recognize software license revenue under Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP 97-2”), as amended by Statement of Position No. 98-9, “Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions” (“SOP 98-9”), specifically when the following criteria are met: (1) a signed contract is obtained; (2) delivery of the product has occurred; (3) the license fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectibility is probable. SOP 98-9 requires recognition of revenue using the “residual method” when (1) there is vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair values of all undelivered elements in a multiple-element arrangement that is not accounted for using long-term contract accounting; (2) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value does not exist for one or more of the delivered elements in the arrangement; and (3) all revenue-recognition criteria in SOP 97-2, other than the requirement for vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair value of each delivered element of the arrangement are satisfied. For those contracts that contain significant customization or modifications, license revenue is recognized under the percentage of completion method.

     Our services revenue consists of fees generated from professional services, customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions related to our software products. Fees from professional services performed by us are generally billed on an hourly basis, and revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Professional services are sometimes rendered under agreements in which billings are limited to contractual maximums or based upon a fixed-fee for portions of or all of the engagement. Revenue related to fixed-fee based contracts is recognized on a percent complete basis based on the hours incurred. Project losses are provided for in their entirety in the period in which they become known. Revenue related to customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions are generally paid in advance and recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically 12 months.

Form 10-Q

3. Revenue Recognition (continued)

     Hardware revenue is generated from the resale of a variety of hardware products, developed and manufactured by third parties, that are integrated with and complementary to our software solutions. As part of a complete solution, our customers frequently purchase hardware from us in conjunction with the licensing of software. These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, RFID chip readers, bar code printers and scanners and other peripherals. Hardware revenue is recognized upon shipment to the customer when title passes. We generally purchase hardware from our vendors only after receiving an order from a customer. As a result, we do not maintain significant hardware inventory.

     In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB’s”) Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 01-14 (“EITF No. 01-14”), “Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of-Pocket Expenses Incurred,” we recognize amounts associated with reimbursements from customers for out-of-pocket expenses as revenue. Such amounts have been classified to hardware and other revenue. The total amount of expense reimbursement recorded to revenue was $1.6 million and $1.7 million for quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

4. Investments

     Our investments in marketable securities consist of debt instruments of the U.S. Treasury, U.S. government agencies, state and local government agencies and corporate commercial paper. These investments are categorized as available-for-sale securities and recorded at fair market value, as defined by SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” Investments with original maturities of 90 days or less are classified as cash equivalents; investments with original maturities of greater than 90 days but less than one year are classified as short-term investments; and investments with original maturities of greater than one year are classified as long-term investments. The long-term investments consist of debt instruments of U.S. government agencies and mature after one year through five years. We hold investments in Auction Rate Securities, which have original maturities greater than one year, but which have auctions to reset the yield every seven to 35 days. We have classified these assets as short-term investments. Unrealized holding gains and losses are reflected as a net amount in a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized. For the purposes of computing realized gains and losses, cost is identified on a specific identification basis.

5. Stock-Based Compensation

     We account for our stock-based compensation plan for stock issued to employees under Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and, accordingly, record deferred compensation for options granted at an exercise price below the fair value of the underlying stock. The deferred compensation is presented as a component of equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and is amortized over the periods to be benefited, generally the vesting period of the options. Effective in fiscal year 1996, we adopted the pro forma disclosure option for stock-based compensation issued to employees pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”).

Form 10-Q
Page 7 of 24

5. Stock-Based Compensation (continued)

     Pro forma information regarding net income and net income per share is required by SFAS No. 123, which requires that the information be determined as if we had accounted for our employee stock option grants under the fair value method required by SFAS No. 123. The fair value of each option grant has been estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following pro forma information adjusts the net income and net income per share of common stock for the impact of SFAS No. 123:

     Our estimated forfeiture rate of unvested stock options used in the first two quarters of 2004 when determining the stock-based employee compensation expense determined under the fair-value method, net of taxes, used an incorrect assumption when determining the appropriate forfeiture rate. As a result, the pro forma information was restated to reflect the proper forfeiture rate. The impact of the restatement is presented below (in thousands):

6. Comprehensive Income

     Comprehensive income includes net income, foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on investments that are excluded from net income and reflected in shareholders’ equity.

     The following table sets forth the calculation of comprehensive income:

Form 10-Q
Page 8 of 24

7. Net Income Per Share

     Basic net income per share is computed using net income divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (“Weighted Shares”) for the period presented. Diluted net income per share is computed using net income divided by Weighted Shares plus common equivalent shares (“CESs”) outstanding for each period presented using the treasury stock method.

     The following is a reconciliation of the shares used in the computation of net income per share:

     Weighted average shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options that were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share were 1,356,296 and 5,345,130 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Such shares were not included because they were antidilutive.

8. Geographic Information

     We conduct business in one operating segment: providing supply chain execution and optimization solutions. However, we prepare operating results for internal use on a geographic basis. The geographical-based costs consist of costs of professional services personnel, direct sales and marketing expenses, cost of infrastructure to support our employees and customer base, billing and financial systems and a management and support team. There are certain corporate expenses included in our Americas region that are not charged to the other segments including research and development, certain marketing and general and administrative costs that support our global organization, amortization of intangibles and costs that are one-time in nature, such as acquired in-process research and development.

     We use the same accounting policies for each of our geographical regions. There are no inter-regional sales. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer evaluate performance based on revenue and operating results from operations for each region.

     In accordance with SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” we have included a summary of the regional financial information reported internally. Our geographic regions are the Americas, Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”), and Asia/Pacific. Included in the Americas costs are all research and development costs including the costs associated with our offshore development center in India.

8. Geographic Information (continued)

     The following table presents our revenues, expenses and operating income (loss) by reportable geographic region (in thousands):

9. Acquisition

     On January 23, 2004, we acquired certain assets of Avere, Inc. (“Avere”), a provider of order management software. We completed the acquisition to enhance our product offering. We acquired substantially all of the assets of Avere for a purchase price of approximately $305,000. The purchase price includes the earnout of approximately $75,000 recorded through March 31, 2005, and will be further adjusted for additional potential earnout based upon the total Avere software fees recognized by us prior to December 31, 2005. The earnout payment will be calculated as the following percentages of all Avere software fees recognized during the earnout period: (i) 25% of the Avere software fees greater than $200,000 and up to and including $2 million; (ii) 30% of the Avere software fees greater than $2 million and up to and including $4 million; and (iii) 35% of the Avere software fees greater than $4 million. The entire purchase price has been recorded as acquired developed technology and is being amortized over the greater of the amount computed using (a) the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product or (b) the straight-line method over the remaining five-year estimated economic life of the product, including the period being reported on. The operating results of Avere were included in our operations after January 23, 2004.

10. Reclassifications

     Certain reclassifications were made to the prior year’s financial statements to conform to the 2005 presentation.

11. New Accounting Pronouncements

     In March 2004, the FASB approved the consensus reached on the EITF Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.” The objective of this Issue is to provide guidance for identifying impaired investments. EITF 03-1 also provides new disclosure requirements for investments that are deemed to be temporarily impaired. The accounting provisions of EITF 03-1 were effective for all reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004, while the disclosure requirements were effective only for annual periods ending after June 15, 2004. The adoption of EITF 03-1 did not have a material effect on our Consolidated Statements of Income, financial position or liquidity.

     In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Statement 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in Statement 123(R) is similar to the approach described in Statement 123. However, Statement 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative.

     Statement 123(R) must be adopted no later than January 1, 2006. Early adoption will be permitted in periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued. Statement 123(R) permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods:

1.

A “modified prospective” method in which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of Statement 123(R) for all share-based payments granted after the effective date, and (b) based on the requirements of Statement 123 for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of Statement 123(R) that remain unvested on the effective date.

2.

A “modified retrospective” method, which includes the requirements of the modified prospective method described above, but also permits entities to restate based on the amounts previously recognized under Statement 123 for purposes of pro forma disclosures either (a) all prior periods presented or (b) prior interim periods of the year of adoption.

     We will adopt Statement 123(R) beginning on January 1, 2006 and are currently in the process of evaluating which method we will adopt. The impact of adoption of Statement 123(R) cannot be predicted at this time because it will depend on levels of share-based payments granted in the future.

     In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) Financial Accounting Standard (“FAS”) 109-1, “Application of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the Act)”, which provides tax relief to U.S. domestic manufacturers. The FSP states that the manufacturers’ deduction provided for under the Act should be accounted for as a special deduction in accordance with Statement 109 rather than as a tax rate reduction. Also in December 2004, the FASB issued FSP FAS 109-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004,” addressing accounting and disclosure guidance relating to a company’s repatriation program. Both FSPs were effective upon issuance. We are currently evaluating the impact of these FSPs to determine the amount of tax benefit we are entitled to under the new regulations.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

     The Securities and Exchange Commission defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.

     The condensed consolidated financial statements include accounts of both our subsidiaries and us. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related footnotes. In preparing these financial statements, management has made estimates and judgments relating to certain amounts included in the financial statements. As a result, application of these accounting policies could cause actual results to differ from these estimates.

     We have identified the following as our critical accounting policies:

Revenues and Revenue Recognition

     Our revenue is derived from (i) Software and Hosting Fees, which consist of revenue from the licensing and hosting of software and revenue from funded research and development efforts; (ii) Services Revenue, which consist of fees from consulting, implementation and training services (collectively, “professional services”), plus customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions; and (iii) Hardware and Other Revenue, which consists of sales of hardware and reimbursed project expenses.

     Revenue recognition rules for software companies are very complex. We recognize software fees in accordance with Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP 97-2”), as amended by Statement of Position No. 98-9, “Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions” (“SOP 98-9”). Although we follow very specific and detailed guidelines in measuring revenue, the application of those guidelines requires judgment including: (i) whether a software arrangement includes multiple elements, and if so, whether vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for those elements; (ii) whether customizations or modifications of the software are significant; and (iii) whether collection of the software fee is probable. Additionally, we specifically evaluate any other elements in our license transactions, including but not limited to, options to purchase additional software at a future date, extended payment terms, functionality commitments not delivered with the software and existing outstanding receivable balances in making the determination of the amount and timing of revenue recognition.

     Most of our software arrangements include professional services. Professional services revenues are generally accounted for separately from the software license revenues because the arrangements qualify as “service transactions” as defined by SOP 97-2. The most significant factors considered in determining whether the revenue should be accounted for separately include the nature of the services (i.e., consideration of whether the services are essential to the functionality of the licensed product), degree of risk, availability of services from other vendors and timing of payments. We provide our professional services under services agreements on a time and material basis or based on a fixed-price and/or fixed-time arrangement. The revenues from our time and material based professional consulting and implementation services are recognized as the work is performed, provided that the customer has a

Form 10-Q
Page 13 of 24

contractual obligation to pay, the fee is non-refundable and collection is probable. Delays in project implementation will result in delays in revenue recognition. For our professional consulting services under fixed-price and/or fixed-time arrangements, we recognize the related revenues using the percentage-of-completion method, with progress-to-completion measured by using labor costs input compared to estimated cost of completion. Revisions to the estimates are reflected in the period in which changes become known. Project losses are provided for in their entirety in the period they become known, without regard to the percentage-of-completion. If we do not accurately estimate the resources required or the scope of work to be performed, or if we do not manage our projects properly within the planned periods of time, then future consulting margins on our projects may be negatively affected or losses on existing contracts may need to be recognized.

     Hardware revenue is generated from the resale of a variety of hardware products, developed and manufactured by third parties, which are integrated with and complementary to our software solutions. These products include computer equipment, radio frequency terminal networks, RFID chip readers, bar code printers and scanners and other peripherals. We generally purchase hardware from our vendors only after receiving an order from a customer, and revenue is recognized upon shipment by the vendor to the customer.

Accounts Receivable

     We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain an allowance for estimated credit losses based upon our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified. Additions to the allowance for doubtful accounts generally represent a sales allowance on services revenue, which are recorded to operations as a reduction to services revenue. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. Our top five customers in aggregate accounted for 18% and 14% of total revenue for the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of revenue in the first quarters of 2004 or 2005.

Valuation of long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill

     In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS No. 142”), we do not amortize goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives. Our long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill are subject to annual impairment tests, which require us to estimate the fair value of our business compared to the carrying value. The impairment reviews require an analysis of future projections and assumptions about our operating performance. Should such review indicate the assets are impaired, we would record an expense for the impaired assets.

     Annual tests or other future events could cause us to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that our goodwill is impaired. For example, if we had reason to believe that our recorded goodwill and intangible assets had become impaired due to decreases in the fair market value of the underlying business, we would have to take a charge to income for that portion of goodwill or intangible assets that we believed was impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations. At March 31, 2005, our goodwill balance was $32.5 million and our intangible assets with definite lives balance was $7.4 million, net of accumulated amortization.

Income Taxes

     We provide for the effect of income taxes on our financial position and results of operations in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this accounting pronouncement, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of income taxes payable or refundable for the current year and for the change in net deferred tax assets or liabilities resulting from events that are recorded for financial reporting purposes in a different reporting period than recorded in the tax return. Management must make significant assumptions, judgments and estimates to determine our current provision for income taxes and also our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance to be recorded against our net deferred tax asset. Our judgments, assumptions and estimates relative to the current provision for income tax take into account current tax laws, our interpretation of current tax laws, allowable deductions, projected tax credits and possible outcomes of current and future audits conducted by foreign and domestic tax authorities. Changes in tax law or our interpretation of tax laws and the resolution of current and future tax audits could significantly impact the amounts provided for income taxes in our financial position and results of operations. Our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to the value of our net deferred tax asset take into account predictions of the amount and category of future taxable income. Actual operating results and the underlying amount and category of income in future years could render our current assumptions, judgments and estimates of recoverable net deferred taxes inaccurate, thus materially impacting our financial position and results of operations.

Results of Operations

Overview

     Our primary goal is to expand our position as a leading provider of supply chain execution and optimization solutions by delivering integrated, modular solutions to our customers. With the addition and integration of new products resulting from the acquisitions completed during 2002, 2003 and 2004, along with the synchronized release of new versions of our product suite with enhanced functionality, we have been able to accomplish continued revenue growth.

     We continue to experience many effects of a weak spending environment for information technology in the United States and Europe, in the form of delayed and cancelled buying decisions by customers for our software, services and hardware, deferrals by customers of service engagements previously scheduled and pressure by our customers and competitors to discount our offerings. We believe that a deterioration in the current business climates or continued delay in capital spending within the United States and/or other geographic regions in which we operate, principally the United Kingdom and continental Europe, could have a material adverse impact on our future operations.

     In 2005, we plan to continue to enhance our solutions, expand globally and further develop our sales and marketing, including strategic alliances and indirect sales channels. Our success could be limited by several factors, including spending on information technology, the timely release of quality new products and releases, continued market acceptance of our solutions and the introduction of new products by existing or new competitors.

Quarter Ended March 31, 2004 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 2005

Revenue

     Our revenue consists of fees generated from the licensing and hosting of software; fees from professional services, customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions; and sales of complementary radio frequency and computer equipment, which are considered non-strategic. We believe our revenue growth from 2004 to 2005 is attributable to several factors, including, among others, increased sales of our expanded product suite, geographic expansion, our market leadership positions as to breadth of product offerings and financial stability and a compelling return on investment proposition for our customers.

     Software and hosting fees. The increase in software and hosting fees from the quarter ended March 31, 2004 to the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was primarily due to increased sales of newer products, relating primarily to our TMS and TPM solution groups. Sales of our solution groups other than our warehouse management solution group increased by $2.5 million, or 62%, from the first quarter of 2004 to the first quarter of 2005, while sales of our warehouse management solution group decreased by $1.0 million, or 12%, from the first quarter of 2004 to the first quarter of 2005. We continue to see an increase in the diversity of products purchased from us by new and existing customers as our newer products gain greater market acceptance. This is contributing to the fluctuations in the sales mix of our solutions groups.

     Services revenue. The increase in services revenue from the quarter ended March 31, 2004 to the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was principally due to: (i) an increase of 17% in the number of active engagements required to implement the increased amount of software sold and to upgrade existing customers to more current versions of our offerings; and (ii) renewals of customer support services and software enhancement subscription agreements on a growing installed base. Revenue from software enhancement subscription agreements increased by 21% in the first quarter of 2005. During the economic downturn, we have experienced some pricing pressures with regard to our services. We believe that the pricing pressures are attributable to global macro-economic conditions and competitive pressures. Our services revenue growth has been and will likely continue to be affected by the mix of products sold. The individual engagements involving our newer products, including our TMS, RFID and TPM solutions, typically require less implementation services; however, the number of engagements continue to grow.

     Hardware and other. Sales of hardware are non-strategic and largely dependent upon customer-specific desires, which fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Sales of hardware decreased by 11% to

Form 10-Q
Page 16 of 24

approximately $3.3 million in the first quarter of 2005 from approximately $3.8 million in the first quarter of 2004. The decrease in hardware sales was attributable to customers’ desires in the current macro-economic environment to buy hardware from other suppliers offering greater discounts, combined with increased sales of our optimization and transportation products, which require less hardware than our core warehouse management products. Reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses are required to be classified as revenue and are included in hardware and other revenue. For the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, reimbursements by customers for out-of-pocket expenses were approximately $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

Geographic regions.

     Geographic revenue information is based on the location of where the revenue is recorded. During 2004 and 2005, we derived the majority of our revenues from sales to customers within our Americas region. Revenues by region represented the following percentages of total revenues for the periods indicated:

     Revenues in EMEA decreased both as a percentage of total revenue and in absolute dollars. Revenues in EMEA are being negatively impacted by the delayed commitments for capital investments and the overall weakness of the European economy. Additional financial data for each geographic region can be found in Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Costs and Expenses

Form 10-Q
Page 17 of 24

     Cost of Software and Hosting Fees. Cost of software and hosting fees consists of the costs associated with software reproduction; hosting services; funded development; media, packaging and delivery, documentation and other related costs; royalties on third-party software sold with or as part of our products; and the amortization of capitalized research and development costs. The increase in cost of software fees, as a percentage of software and hosting fees and in absolute dollars, in the first quarter of 2005 is principally attributable to an increase in costs of approximately $300,000 relating to funded development arrangements. In addition, sales of our open systems products as a percentage of total revenue from all products sold increased from approximately 74% in the first quarter of 2004 to approximately 88% in the first quarter of 2005, which resulted in higher royalties paid to third parties during 2005.

     Amortization of Acquired Developed Technology. Amortization of acquired developed technology increased from $493,000 in the first quarter of 2004 to $554,000 in the first quarter of 2005. The slight increase was the result of the earnouts recorded relating to the acquisitions of ReturnCentral, Inc. in June 2003, Streamsoft, L.L.C. in October 2003 and Avere in January 2004.

     Cost of Services. Cost of services consists primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of employees dedicated to professional and technical services and customer support services. The increase in cost of services in the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was principally due to increases in salary-related costs resulting from: (i) an increase of 15% in the average number of personnel dedicated to the delivery of professional and technical services; and (ii) annual compensation increases. The decrease in the services gross margin from 55% in the first quarter of 2004 to 52% during the first quarter of 2005 was attributable to the continued shift in product mix to open systems, fixed price contracts and increased costs due to international expansion and training. The implementation of our warehouse management open systems products is more costly than the implementation of our legacy warehouse management product, the iSeries or AS400, due to the lower maturity level of the product and limited experience of the services personnel and integration requirements with multiple third party hardware and software products.

     Cost of Hardware and other. Cost of hardware decreased from approximately $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2004 to approximately $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2005 as a direct result of lower sales of hardware. The increase in the cost of hardware and other as a percentage of hardware and other revenue is principally due to an increase in the percentage of hardware products sold with relatively lower gross margins, a decrease in hardware maintenance revenue recognized during the first quarter of 2005, which has a margin higher than the average hardware margin, and an increase in the relative percentage of reimbursed out-of-pocket expenses with no gross margin during the quarter ended March 31, 2005, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2004. Cost of hardware and other includes out-of-pocket expenses to be reimbursed by customers of approximately $1.6 million and $1.7 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

     Research and Development. Research and development expenses primarily consist of salaries and other personnel-related costs for personnel involved in our research and development activities. The increase in research and development expenses in the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was attributable to an increase in personnel dedicated to ongoing research and development activities at our offshore development center in India. The number of research and development personnel related to our offshore development center increased from 176 at March 31, 2004 to 296 at March 31, 2005. Our principal research and development activities during 2004 and the first quarter of 2005 focused on the expansion and integration of new products acquired and the synchronized product release, which included expanded product functionality, interoperability and testing.

     Computer software development costs are charged to research and development expense until technological feasibility is established, after which remaining software production costs are capitalized. We have defined technological feasibility as the point in time at which we have a detailed program design or a working model of the related product, depending upon the type of development effort. For the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, we capitalized no research and development costs because the costs incurred following the attainment of technological feasibility for the related software product through the date of general release were insignificant.

     Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses include salaries, commissions, travel and other personnel-related costs of sales and marketing personnel and the costs of our marketing and alliance programs and related activities. The increase in sales and marketing expenses from the first quarter of 2004 to the first quarter of 2005 was principally attributable to: (i) an increase in salary-related costs resulting from a 30% increase in the average number of international and domestic sales and marketing personnel in the first quarter of 2005 compared to the first quarter of 2004; (ii) greater incentive compensation paid on 12% higher license and hosting fees in the first quarter of 2005; and (iii) continued global expansion of our sales and marketing programs.

     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related costs of executive, financial, human resources, information technology and administrative personnel, as well as facilities, depreciation, legal, insurance, accounting and other administrative expenses. The increase in general and administrative expenses during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was principally attributable to an increase in salary-related costs resulting from an increase of approximately 26% in the number of general and administrative personnel, primarily from our international expansion. Depreciation expense is included in general and administrative expenses and amounted to $1.7 million and $1.9 million during the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

     Amortization of Acquisition-Related Intangibles. We have recorded goodwill and other acquisition-related intangible assets as part of the purchase accounting associated with various acquisitions, including the acquisitions of Logistics.com, Inc. in December 2002, ReturnCentral, Inc. in June 2003, Streamsoft, L.L.C. in October 2003, Avere in January 2004, and eebiznet in July 2004. Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles was consistent from the first quarter of 2004 to the first quarter of 2005.

     Income from Operations. The decrease in operating income from the quarter ended March 31, 2004 to the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was the result of the decrease in our services gross margin and increased expenses from the continued investment in global expansion initiatives and the further development of our product suite.

     Other Income, Net. Other income, net includes interest income and interest expense and foreign currency gains and losses. Interest income increased from approximately $400,000 in the first quarter of 2004 to approximately $900,000 in the first quarter of 2005 due to an overall increase in market interest rates along with an increase in the cash available to invest. The weighted-average interest rate on investment securities at March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005 was approximately 1.0% and 2.7%, respectively. We recorded net foreign currency losses of $10,000 and $400,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. The foreign currency losses resulted from losses on intercompany transactions denominated in U.S. dollars with subsidiaries due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar since year-end relative to other foreign currencies, primarily the British Pound and Euro.

     Income Tax Provision. Our effective income tax rates were 34.5% and 38.9% in the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Our effective income tax rate takes into account the source of taxable income, domestically by state and internationally by country, and available income tax credits. The increase in the tax rate in 2005 was attributable to losses in certain foreign locations, including Germany and China, where the expectation of realizing the tax benefit of those losses is not yet probable. The provision for income taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 does not include the $3.0 million of tax benefit realized from stock options exercised during the quarter. This tax benefit reduces our income tax liability and is included in additional paid-in capital. There was no tax benefit realized from stock options exercised during the quarter ended March 31, 2005.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     We have funded our operations primarily through cash generated from operations. As of March 31, 2005, we had approximately $175.4 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments, as compared to approximately $172.7 million at December 31, 2004.

     Our operating activities provided cash of approximately $11.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Cash from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2005 arose principally from operating income, increases in prepayments of professional services, customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions, and an increase in income taxes payable, offset by an increase in accounts receivable and other assets. Days sales outstanding increased to 79 days at March 31, 2005 from 76 days at December 31, 2004, as a result of slower collections associated with international revenues.

     Our investing activities used cash of approximately $11.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and provided cash of approximately $34.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Cash from investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2005 arose from the net sales and maturities of investments of approximately $36.9 million, off-set by the purchases of approximately $2.5 million of capital equipment to support our business and infrastructure.

     Our financing activities provided cash of approximately $1.1 million and $60,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. The source of cash provided by financing activities was from the proceeds of the issuance of common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock options, partially off-set by the repayment of capital lease obligations.

     We believe there are opportunities to grow our business through the acquisition of complementary and synergistic companies, products and technologies. Any material acquisition could result in a decrease to our working capital depending on the amount, timing and nature of the consideration to be paid. In April 2005, we incurred legal and financial due diligence costs of approximately $700,000 relating to an acquisition that did not close. In February 2005, our Board of

Form 10-Q
Page 20 of 24

Directors authorized us to purchase up to $20 million of our common stock, including the amount that had previously been approved but not yet repurchased, over a period ending no later than February 3, 2006. We expect to fund purchases under the program through existing cash, cash equivalents and investments.

     We believe that our existing liquidity and expected cash flows from operations will satisfy our capital requirements for normal operations for the foreseeable future. We believe that existing balances of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs at least for the next twelve months, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Foreign Business

     Our international business is subject to risks typical of an international business, including, but not limited to: differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility. Our international operations currently include business activity out of offices in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Australia, Japan, China, Singapore and India. When the U.S. dollar strengthens against a foreign currency, the value of our sales and expenses in that currency converted to U.S. dollars decreases. When the U.S. dollar weakens, the value of our sales and expenses in that currency converted to U.S. dollars increases.

     We recognized foreign exchange rate losses of approximately $10,000 and $400,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Foreign exchange rate transaction gains and losses are classified in “Other income, net” on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. A fluctuation of 10% in the period end exchange rates at March 31, 2005 relative to the U.S. dollar would result in approximately a $0.8 million change in the reported foreign currency loss for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

Interest Rates

     We invest our cash in a variety of financial instruments, including taxable and tax-advantaged floating rate and fixed rate obligations of corporations, municipalities, and local, state and national governmental entities and agencies. These investments are denominated in U.S. dollars. Cash balances in foreign currencies overseas are derived from operations.

     We account for our investment instruments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” (“SFAS No. 115”). All of the cash equivalents and investments are treated as available-for-sale under SFAS No. 115.

     Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates, or we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have seen a decline in market value due to changes in interest rates. The weighted-average interest rate on investment securities held at March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005 was approximately 1.0% and 2.7%, respectively.

Form 10-Q
Page 21 of 24

The fair value of cash equivalents and investments held at March 31, 2005 was approximately $169.0 million. Based on the average investments outstanding during the quarter ended March 31, 2005, an increase or decrease of 25 basis points would result in an increase or decrease to interest income of approximately $100,000 from the reported interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

     We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

     The following changes in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report relating to monitoring vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value as it relates to revenue recognition:

	•	we established a quarterly procedure of comparing actual professional services billing rates and rates for maintenance renewals to management’s assessment of VSOE of fair value for those services to ensure that VSOE of fair value still exists for our consulting and maintenance services, and
	•	we provided additional training and documentation of our internal pricing policies to our sales, services and product management personnel.

     As of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated, with the participation of management, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

     Many of our installations involve products that are critical to the operations of our clients’ businesses. Any failure in our products could result in a claim for substantial damages against us, regardless of our responsibility for such failure. Although we attempt to limit contractually our liability for damages arising from product failures or negligent acts or omissions, there can be no assurance the limitations of liability set forth in our contracts will be enforceable in all instances.

     We are currently having challenging discussions with a large customer regarding their delayed implementation of our warehouse management system, although no legal claims have been filed by either party to date. We believe that our contractual obligations to date have been met and we are entitled to the outstanding receivables of approximately $3 million from the customer at March 31, 2005. We are in discussions with this customer regarding resolution of this matter as well as payment; however, no such resolution has been reached at this time. While no assurance can be given regarding the outcome of the matter discussed, because of the nature

Form 10-Q

and inherent uncertainties of disputes, should the outcome of this matter be unfavorable, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
