AGILYSYS, INC.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Table Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)
1. NAME CHANGE
On September 12, 2003, the shareholders of Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc. approved an amendment to the Companys Amended Articles of Incorporation to change the Companys name to Agilysys, Inc. The name change became effective on September 15, 2003. Prior to September 16, 2003, Agilysys, Inc. traded on the National Association of Securities Dealers and Automated Quotations (NASDAQ) Stock Market as Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc. under the symbol PIOS. On September 16, 2003, Agilysys, Inc. began trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol AGYS. Agilysys, Inc. and its subsidiaries are referred to herein as the Company.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Interim financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods ended December 31, 2003, and December 31, 2002, have been prepared by the Company without audit. The financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as those in the audited annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows have been made. The results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior years data to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported earnings.
Critical Accounting Policies. A detailed description of the Companys critical accounting policies can be found in the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
3. ACQUISITION
On September 30, 2003, the Company consummated the acquisition of Kyrus Corporation (Kyrus) an IBM® Master Distributor and Premier Business Partner in retail sales solutions. The Company acquired Kyrus as part of its recently announced strategic plan to focus solely on the enterprise solutions business. The purchase was funded through the Companys available cash. The acquisition was consummated pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated September 15, 2003 (the Agreement). Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company acquired all the outstanding common stock of Kyrus for $29.6 million ($28.7 million, net of cash acquired) including legal fees and other costs directly related to the acquisition.
6
The Kyrus acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The financial statements reflect the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. As a result of the purchase, the Company recorded approximately $29 million of goodwill on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2003. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the goodwill will not be amortized and will be tested for impairment using a fair value approach at least annually.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2003, the preliminary allocation of the purchase price was adjusted to revise the estimated value of deferred tax assets current portion ($1,558,000 increase), other current assets ($181,000 decrease), deferred tax assets non-current portion ($1,344,000 increase), other non-current assets ($1,188,000 decrease), and current liabilities ($935,000 increase). The deferred tax assets were recognized in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, based on the differences between the assigned values and the tax bases of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. These adjustments resulted in a net decrease to goodwill of $598,000.
During the third fiscal quarter, the Company substantially completed its plans to integrate the Kyrus operations. These activities included exiting certain Kyrus facilities and the involuntary termination of certain Kyrus employees. The acquisition-related restructuring liabilities were accounted for under EITF 95-3 and therefore are included in the purchase price allocation of the cost to acquire Kyrus. The workforce reductions eliminated 70 operations and administrative positions. Any changes to this estimate within the allocation period will result in an increase or decrease to the accrued restructuring charges and a corresponding increase or decrease to goodwill.
The Kyrus acquisition expands the Companys operations to include a wide range of services and solutions, including hardware and software products and extensive professional services to retail customers. As a result of the Companys acquisition of Kyrus, certain of the Companys operations are now located in a 77,500 square-foot office facility in Taylors, South Carolina, for which the Company is party to a seven-year lease. The lease on this facility extends through 2009.
4. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. This Statement, the provisions of which are to be applied prospectively, is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 on July 1, 2003, had no impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how a Company classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that a company classify certain financial instruments, such as instruments in the form of shares that are mandatorily redeemable, as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of such instruments were previously classified as equity. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. During the first quarter of Fiscal 2004, the Company evaluated SFAS No. 150 and determined that this Statement does not apply to the Companys 6.75% Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Trust Preferred Securities since they are convertible into the Companys Common Shares at any time prior to the close of business on March 31, 2028, at the option of
7
the holder.
In April 2001, the FASB issued EITF Issue 01-03, Accounting in a Purchase Business Combination for Deferred Revenue of an Acquiree. EITF 01-03 provides guidance regarding the recognition of deferred revenue as a liability with respect to business combinations. In March 2002, the FASB reached consensus that an acquiring entity should recognize a liability related to a revenue arrangement of an acquired entity only if it has assumed a legal obligation to provide goods, services, or other consideration to a customer. The amount assigned to this liability should be based on its fair value at the date of the acquisition. The Company adopted the guidelines set forth in EITF 01-03 to record deferred revenues purchased in connection with the Kyrus acquisition in September 2003 (see Note 3).
In January 2003, the FASB issued EITF Issue 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. EITF 00-21 requires companies to determine whether an arrangement involving multiple deliverables contains more then one accounting unit. This Issue, which became effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003, did not apply to the Company prior to the Kyrus acquisition on September 30, 2003 (see Note 3). Under EITF 00-21, revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables are divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables in the arrangements meet certain criteria. The criteria applied to multiple element arrangements are whether a) each delivered element has standalone value to the customer, b) there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value of the delivered elements and c) delivery of the undelivered elements is probable and within the control of Agilysys, Inc. Arrangement consideration is allocated using the separate units of accounting based on their relative fair values. Effective October 1, 2003, the Company identifies all goods and/or services that are to be delivered separately under a sales arrangement and allocates revenue to each deliverable based on fair value that is established with the customer during contract negotiations.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, and a revised interpretation of FIN 46 (FIN 46-R) was issued in December 2003. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The provisions of FIN 46 are effective immediately for all arrangements entered into after January 31, 2003. Since January 31, 2003, the Company has not invested in any entities it believes are variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. For all arrangements entered into after January 31, 2003, the Company is required to continue to apply FIN 46 through the end of the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2004. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of FIN 46-R for those arrangements in the first quarter of Fiscal 2005. For arrangements entered into prior to February 1, 2003, the Company is required to adopt the provisions of FIN 46-R in the first quarter of Fiscal 2005. The Company is in the process of determining the effect, if any, the adoption of FIN 46-R will have on its financial statements.
5. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On February 28, 2003, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of its Industrial Electronics Division (IED), which distributed semiconductors and other electronic components in North America and Germany. Cash proceeds from the sale of IED are estimated to total $240 million, subject to purchase price adjustments, of which approximately $227 million has been collected as of December 31, 2003. The assets sold consisted primarily of accounts receivable and inventories and the Companys shares of common stock in World Peace Industrial Co. Ltd, an Asian distributor of electronic components. The buyer also assumed certain liabilities.
8
In addition, as of the sale date, the Company announced its strategic transformation to focus solely on its enterprise computer solutions business. As a result, Agilysys majority owned subsidiary, Aprisa, Inc. (Aprisa), an Internet-based start-up corporation, which created customized software for the electronic components market ceased to provide strategic value to the Company and the operations were discontinued.
The disposition of IED and discontinuation of Aprisas operations represent a disposal of a component of an entity as defined by SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Accordingly, the Companys consolidated financial statements and related notes have been presented to reflect IED and Aprisa as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
For the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company realized a loss from discontinued operations of $1.5 million, net of $0.8 million in income taxes and income from discontinued operations of $4.6 million, net of $1.5 million in income taxes, respectively.
In the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2003, Agilysys recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of IED of $53.5 million. This gain was offset by the following charges which relate solely to the discontinued operations and assets of IED:

Asset impairment |
(17,435 | ) | ||||
Other |
(274 | ) | ||||
Total Restructuring Charges |
$ | (28,650 | ) | |||
Severance costs relate to the severance and other employee benefit costs to be paid to approximately 525 employees previously employed by IED and not re-hired by the purchaser. Facilities costs represent the present value of qualifying exit costs, offset by an estimate for future sublease income provided by external brokers, for approximately 30 vacated locations no longer required as a result of the sale. These leases have expiration dates extending to 2010. During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2003, the Company closed eleven IED facilities.
The asset impairment charge represents the write-down to fair value of assets that were abandoned or classified as held-for-sale, as a result of the disposition and discontinuance of IED and Aprisa, respectively. This write-down was for assets that were not included in the IED sale transaction but related to IED.

6. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2003, concurrent with the sale of IED, the Company announced that it would restructure its remaining enterprise computer solutions business and facilities to reduce overhead and eliminate assets that were inconsistent with the Companys strategic plan and were no longer required. In connection with this reorganization, the Company recorded restructuring charges totaling $20.7 million related to impairment of facilities and other assets no longer required, and severance, incentives and other employee benefit costs, including amounts accrued for payments that were made pursuant to certain tax gross up provisions of executive restricted stock award agreements, incurred in connection with downsizing the corporate structure.
Severance, incentives and other employee benefit costs are to be paid to approximately 110 personnel. Facilities costs represent the present value of qualifying exit costs, offset by an estimate for future sublease income provided by an external broker, for a vacant warehouse that represents excess capacity as a result of the sale. The lease on this facility extends through 2017. The asset impairment charge represented the write-down to fair value of assets that were abandoned as part of the Corporate restructuring since they were inconsistent with the Companys ongoing strategic plan.
The following table summarizes the activity during the nine months ended December 31, 2003, related to this restructuring:

During the three- and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded additional restructuring charges and made payments of $0.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively.
7. GOODWILL
On April 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and discontinued the amortization of goodwill in accordance with SFAS No. 142.
As required by SFAS No. 142, the Company identified and evaluated its reporting units for impairment as of April 1, 2002, the first day of the Companys fiscal year 2003, using a two-step process and engaged an independent valuation consultant to assist in this process. The first step involved identifying the reporting units with carrying values, including goodwill, in excess of fair value. The fair value of the reporting unit was estimated using a combination of a discounted cash flow valuation model, incorporating a discount rate commensurate with the risks involved for each reporting unit, and a market approach of guideline companies in similar transactions. As a result of completing the first step of the process, it was determined that there was an impairment of goodwill at the date of adoption. This was due primarily to market conditions and relatively low levels of sales. In the second step of the process, the implied fair value of the affected reporting units goodwill was compared with its carrying value in order to determine the amount of impairment, that is, the amount by which the carrying amount exceeded the fair value. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $36.7 million, before tax, which was recorded as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in the first quarter of Fiscal 2003 and is reflected in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2002.
On September 30, 2003, the Company acquired Kyrus Corporation. As a result of this purchase, the Company recognized approximately $29 million in goodwill on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2003. During the three months ended December 31, 2003, the preliminary allocation of the purchase price was adjusted to revise the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition. These adjustments resulted in a net decrease to goodwill of $598,000. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the goodwill will not be amortized and will be tested for impairment using a fair value approach at least annually.
8. CONTINGENCIES
The Company is the subject of various threatened or pending legal actions and contingencies in the normal course of conducting its business. The Company provides for costs related to these matters when a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The effect of the outcome of these matters on the Companys future results of operations and liquidity cannot be predicted because any such effect depends on future results of operations and the amount or timing of the resolution of such matters. While it is not possible to predict with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

9. MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED SECURITIES
In March and April 1998, Pioneer-Standard Financial Trust (the Pioneer-Standard Trust) issued 2,875,000 shares relating to $143.7 million of 6.75% Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Trust Preferred Securities. The Pioneer-Standard Trust, a statutory business trust, is a wholly-owned consolidated subsidiary of the Company, with its sole asset being $148.2 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Junior Convertible Subordinated Debentures due March 31, 2028 of Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc. (the Trust Debentures). The Company has executed a guarantee with regard to the Trust preferred securities. The guarantee, when taken together with the Companys obligations under the Trust Debentures, the indenture pursuant to which the Trust Debentures were issued and the applicable trust document, provide a full and unconditional guarantee of the Pioneer-Standard Trusts obligations under the Trust preferred securities.
The Trust preferred securities are non-voting (except in limited circumstances), pay quarterly distributions at an annual rate of 6.75%, carry a liquidation value of $50 per share and are convertible into the Companys Common Shares at any time prior to the close of business on March 31, 2028, at the option of the holder. After March 31, 2003, the Trust preferred securities are redeemable, at the option of the Company, for a redemption price of 103.375% of par reduced annually by 0.675% to a minimum of $50 per Trust preferred security. During the first quarter of Fiscal 2004, the Company repurchased 365,000 Trust preferred securities, approximating $18.3 million face value, for a cash purchase price of approximately $17.0 million. The difference between the face value and cash paid, offset by the write-off of related deferred financing fees, resulted in a net gain of $734,000. As of December 31, 2003, a total of 369,761 Trust preferred securities had been redeemed.
10. SENIOR NOTES
In July 2003, the Company repurchased $28.5 million of the 9.5% Senior Notes due 2006 at a premium of $3.3 million plus accrued interest of $1.1 million. In December 2003, the Company repurchased $10.2 million of the 9.5% Senior Notes due 2006 at a premium of $0.7 million plus accrued interest of $0.3 million.

13. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has elected to continue to follow Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Because the exercise price of the Companys employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure.

SFAS 148 requires prominent disclosure regarding the method used by the Company to account for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.

14. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On February 2, 2004, the Company announced that it signed a definitive agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of Inter-American Data, Inc. (IAD). IAD is a leading developer and provider of software and services to hotel casinos and major resorts in the United States. Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, IAD powers some of the largest resorts in the world with a robust suite of enterprise solutions for property and materials management as well as electronic document storage.
The acquisition is expected to close on or around February 18, 2004, subject to, among other things, the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Full integration of IADs operations with the Companys operations is expected to occur during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2004. The purchase price of $36.5 million will be funded in cash. The acquisition will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and will result in goodwill of approximately $36 million.
This acquisition establishes the Company as a leading software developer and service provider to the hospitality industry, particularly the gaming sector, which is an area of the economy that has experienced positive growth in recent years. Similar to the recent acquisition of Kyrus Corporation, the addition of IAD will open up a new market, broaden the Agilysys customer base, and increase service and product offerings.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Certain matters discussed in this section include forward-looking statements involving risks and uncertainties. When used in this document, the words believes, anticipates, plans, expects, forecast, project, and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning future revenue, net income growth, cash flows and capital expenditures. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date of this report.
Operating results for the three- and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004. Managements discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the same discussion in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. References also should be made to the financial statements in this Form 10-Q.
Uneven Sales Patterns and Seasonality
The Company experiences a disproportionately large percentage of quarterly sales in the last month of the fiscal quarters. This uneven sales pattern makes the prediction of revenues, earnings and working capital for each quarterly financial period difficult and increases the risk of unanticipated variations in quarterly results and financial condition. In addition, the Company experiences a seasonal increase in sales during its third quarter ending in December. The Company believes that this sales pattern is industry-wide. Although the Company is unable to predict whether this sales pattern will continue over the long term, the Company anticipates that this trend will remain for the foreseeable future.
Overview
On September 30, 2003, the Company consummated the acquisition of Kyrus Corporation (see Note 3). Results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2003, include the results of Kyrus beginning October 1, 2003. The Kyrus acquisition expands the Companys operations to include a wide range of services and solutions, including hardware and software products and extensive professional services for retail customers.
Following is certain financial data for the three- and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2003 as compared with the three- and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2002. The Companys Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes have been presented to reflect the disposition of the Companys Industrial Electronics Division (IED) and discontinuance of Aprisa, Inc.s (Aprisa) operations as discontinued operations for all periods. As such, managements discussion and analysis excludes discontinued operations and focuses on the results of the Companys continuing operations, the enterprise computer solutions business.

Net Sales. Net sales were $459.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 compared with net sales of $376.4 million for the same quarter last year, which represented an increase of $82.9 million or 22.0%. Hardware, software and service revenues all reported significant year-over-year improvements. The current quarter benefited from inclusion of the results of Kyrus, which was acquired on September 30, 2003. Of the total increase of $82.9 million, $29.7 million related to the Kyrus operations. Excluding Kyrus, third quarter net sales increased $53.3 million, or 14.2%, compared with the same quarter last year.
Gross Margin. Gross margin is the difference between net sales and cost of goods sold. Costs of goods sold includes the direct costs of products sold and freight expenses, offset by incentives from vendors. Gross margin for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 was 12.9% compared with 12.0% for the third quarter of Fiscal 2003. Gross margin improvements resulted from two primary causes. The current periods gross margin benefited from higher levels of vendor incentives compared with the third quarter of Fiscal 2003. In addition, the inclusion of Kyrus results for the quarter improved the current periods gross margins. Gross margins from Kyrus operations were approximately 20.0% for the quarter ended December 31, 2003. Kyrus product mix, which includes sales of software and services, generate relatively higher levels of gross margin compared with the remainder of Agilysys sales. Excluding the results of Kyrus, gross margin would have been 12.4% for the current period, compared with 12.0% for the third quarter in Fiscal 2003.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses excluding restructuring charges, were $38.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2003, an increase of $1.4 million compared with the same quarter last year. As a percentage of sales, however, these costs decreased to 8.4% in the current quarter compared with 9.8% for the same period last year. Agilysys has grown revenues organically and through acquisition without adding significant additional general and administrative expenses. In addition, the acquisition of Kyrus increased selling, general and administrative expenses by $4.5 million in the quarter. Excluding Kyrus, SG&A expenses would have been $33.9 million compared with $37.0 million for the same quarter last year.
Restructuring Charges. For the quarter ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded a $0.9 million charge for restructuring activities associated with the Fiscal 2003 reorganization.
Income Taxes. The current year tax rate is higher than the prior year tax rate due primarily to the reversal of a valuation allowance in the prior year.

Net Sales. Net sales were $1.0 billion for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2003 compared with net sales of $910.3 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2002, which represented an increase of $121.3 million or 13.3%. Hardware, software and service revenues all reported year-over-year improvements. In addition, the nine-month period ended December 31, 2003 benefited from the inclusion of the results of Kyrus, which was acquired on September 30, 2003.
Gross Margin. Gross margin for the nine months ended December 31, 2003 was 12.5% compared with 12.6% for the nine months ended December 31, 2002. The nine-month period ended December 31, 2003 benefited from higher levels of vendor incentives as well as the acquisition of Kyrus. These positive factors offset the competitive pricing pressures that have been encountered in the marketplace throughout Fiscal 2004.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses, excluding restructuring charges, were $101.7 million for the first nine months of Fiscal 2004 compared with $103.1 million for the same period last year, a decrease of $1.4 million. These costs decreased as a percentage of sales to 9.9% for the nine-months ended December 31, 2003 from 11.3% for the nine-months ended December 31, 2002. Excluding Kyrus, SG&A would have been $97.2 million fiscal year-to-date, a reduction of 6.1% compared with Fiscal 2003.
Restructuring Charges. For the nine month period ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded a $2.1 million charge for restructuring activities associated with the Fiscal 2003 reorganization.
Income Taxes. The current year tax rate is higher than the prior year tax rate due primarily to the reversal of a valuation allowance in the prior year.
Pending Acquisitions
On February 2, 2004, the Company announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of Inter-American Data, Inc. (IAD). IAD is a leading developer and provider of software and services to hotel casinos and major resorts in the United States. Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, IAD powers some of the largest resorts in the world with a robust suite of enterprise solutions for property and materials management as well as electronic document storage.
The acquisition is expected to close on or around February 18, 2004, and the results of operations will be included in the Companys operations as of the close date. Full integration of IADs operations with the Companys operations is expected to occur during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2004.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating Activities. For the nine months ended December 31, 2003, net cash used for operating activities totaled $82.1 million, as compared with cash provided by operating activities of $31.0 million for the comparable period in the prior year. Current assets, excluding cash and discontinued operations, increased by $215.1 million and current liabilities, excluding discontinued liabilities, increased by $114.3 million during the nine-month period ending December 31, 2003, resulting in a $100.8 million increase in working capital from March 31, 2003. An increase in accounts receivables of $174.9 million, due to strong quarter end sales, was the main driver for the increase in working capital for the nine-month period ending December 31, 2003. In addition, in order to earn significant early payment discounts, on December 31, 2003, the Company paid $25 million of accounts payable prior to their due dates.
Investing Activities. Net cash used for investing activities totaled $26.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2003, compared with $6.9 million for the same period last year. On September 30, 2003, the Company acquired Kyrus Corporation for $28.7 million (net of cash acquired). As of September 30, 2003 the Company sold its publicly held foreign investment, Eurodis Electron PLC, (Eurodis) for $3.3 million. At March 31, 2003, Eurodis adjusted cost basis was $2.4 million.
Financing Activities. Net cash used for financing activities was $63.2 million, compared with $30.4 million for the comparable period last year. Cash used for financing activities in the nine-month period ending December 31, 2003 included the repurchase of $38.7 million of 9.5% Senior Notes due August 2006 (the Senior Notes) for a cash purchase price of $44.2 million and the repurchase of 365,000 Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Trust Preferred Securities (the Trust preferred securities) approximating $18.3 million face value, for a purchase price of approximately $17.0 million. The premium paid on the 9.5% Senior Notes, as well as the disposition of other financing fees, resulted in a charge of $4.1 million. The difference between the face value and cash paid for the Trust preferred securities, offset by the write-off of deferred financing fees, resulted in a net gain of $734,000. Net cash used for financing activities for the nine-month period ending December 31, 2002 was $30.4 million, the majority of which represents the repayment of borrowings under the Companys accounts receivable securitization with cash generated from working capital and lower working capital needs.
Current and Future Liquidity Position. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily from the various floating-rate pricing mechanisms on the Companys Revolving Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) dated April 16, 2003. The Company has no borrowings outstanding under its Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2003.
The ratio of debt to capital, defined as current and long-term debt plus the Trust preferred securities (combined Debt) divided by Debt plus Shareholders Equity is 41.7% at December 31, 2003, compared with 48% at March 31, 2003. The Company is working to opportunistically reduce this ratio longer term to 25-35%. The Company has outstanding $92.3 million principal amount of 9.5% Senior Notes and $125.4 million of 6.75% Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Trust Preferred Securities.
In March and April 1998, the Companys wholly owned subsidiary, the Pioneer-Standard Financial Trust (the Pioneer-Standard Trust), issued 2,875,000 shares relating to $143.7 million of the Trust preferred securities. The sole asset of the Pioneer-Standard Trust is $148.2 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Junior Convertible Subordinated Debentures due March 31, 2028. The Company has executed a guarantee providing a full and unconditional guarantee of the Pioneer-Standard Trusts obligations under the Trust preferred securities. A portion of the Companys cash flow from operations is dedicated to
18
servicing these aggregate obligations and is not available for other purposes. However, the Company may cause the Pioneer-Standard Trust to delay payment of these servicing obligations for 20 consecutive quarters. During such deferral periods, distributions, to which holders of the Trust preferred securities are entitled, will compound quarterly, and the Company may not declare or pay any dividends on its Common Shares. The Company does not currently anticipate suspending these obligations. After March 31, 2003, the Trust preferred securities are redeemable, at the option of the Company, for a redemption price of 103.375% of par reduced annually by 0.675% to a minimum of $50 per Trust preferred security. The Trust preferred securities are subject to mandatory redemption on March 31, 2028, at a redemption price of $50 per Trust preferred security. As previously noted, during the first quarter of Fiscal 2004, the Company repurchased 365,000 Trust preferred securities. The Company does not currently anticipate any further redemption of these Trust preferred securities, however, as opportunities arise the Company may purchase certain of the Trust preferred securities on the open market.
Management estimates that capital expenditures for Fiscal 2004 will approximate $1.0 to $1.5 million. The Company anticipates that cash on hand, funds from current operations, the Credit Agreement and access to capital markets will provide adequate funds to finance acquisitions, capital spending and working capital needs and to service its obligations and other commitments arising during the foreseeable future.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. This Statement, the provisions of which are to be applied prospectively, is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 on July 1, 2003, had no impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how a Company classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that a company classify certain financial instruments, such as instruments in the form of shares that are mandatorily redeemable, as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of such instruments were previously classified as equity. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. During the first quarter of Fiscal 2004, the Company evaluated SFAS No. 150 and determined that this Statement does not apply to the Companys 6.75% Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Trust Preferred Securities since they are convertible into the Companys Common Shares at any time prior to the close of business on March 31, 2028, at the option of the holder.
In April 2001, the FASB issued EITF Issue 01-03, Accounting in a Purchase Business Combination for Deferred Revenue of an Acquiree. EITF 01-03 provides guidance regarding the recognition of deferred revenue as a liability with respect to business combinations. In March 2002, the FASB reached consensus that an acquiring entity should recognize a liability related to a revenue arrangement of an acquired entity only if it has assumed a legal obligation to provide goods, services, or other consideration to a customer. The amount assigned to this liability should be based on its fair value at the date of the acquisition. The Company adopted the guidelines set forth in EITF 01-03 to record deferred revenues purchased in connection with the Kyrus acquisition in September 2003 (see Note 3).

In January 2003, the FASB issued EITF Issue 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. EITF 00-21 requires companies to determine whether an arrangement involving multiple deliverables contains more then one accounting unit. This Issue, which became effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003, did not apply to the Company prior to the Kyrus acquisition on September 30, 2003 (see Note 3). Under EITF 00-21, revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables are divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables in the arrangements meet certain criteria. The criteria applied to multiple element arrangements are whether a) each delivered element has standalone value to the customer, b) there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value of the delivered elements and c) delivery of the undelivered elements is probable and within the control of Agilysys, Inc. Arrangement consideration is allocated using the separate units of accounting based on their relative fair values. Effective October 1, 2003, the Company identifies all goods and/or services that are to be delivered separately under a sales arrangement and allocates revenue to each deliverable based on fair value that is established with the customer during contract negotiations.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, and a revised interpretation of FIN 46 (FIN 46-R) was issued in December 2003. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The provisions of FIN 46 are effective immediately for all arrangements entered into after January 31, 2003. Since January 31, 2003, the Company has not invested in any entities it believes are variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. For all arrangements entered into after January 31, 2003, the Company is required to continue to apply FIN 46 through the end of the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2004. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of FIN 46-R for those arrangements in the first quarter of Fiscal 2005. For arrangements entered into prior to February 1, 2003, the Company is required to adopt the provisions of FIN 46-R in the first quarter of Fiscal 2005. The Company is in the process of determining the effect, if any, the adoption of FIN 46-R will have on its financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies Judgments and Estimates
This discussion and analysis of the Companys financial condition and results of its operations is based upon the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, restructuring and contingencies and litigation. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using the same critical accounting policies discussed in the companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our estimates are based on historical experience as well as relevant facts and circumstances known to us at each reporting date. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
As of December 31, 2003, the Company has goodwill with a carrying value of $146.1 million which is not being amortized and is subject to impairment testing. A goodwill impairment test is performed on an annual basis or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. The annual impairment test will be performed during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2004. It is possible that the test could result in an impairment charge which could have an adverse impact on the Companys profitability and results of operations.
