CONVERA CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

(1) THE COMPANY

Convera Corporation (“Convera” or the “Company”) was established through the combination on December 21, 2000 of the former Excalibur Technologies Corporation (“Excalibur”) and Intel Corporation’s (“Intel”) Interactive Media Services (“IMS”) division (the “Combination”).

As of April 30, 2005, and 2004, Allen Holding, Inc., together with Allen & Company Incorporated and Herbert A. Allen and certain related parties (collectively “Allen & Company”) beneficially owned more than 50% of the voting power of Convera.

Convera principally earns revenues from the licensing of its software products and the provision of services in deployment of the Company’s technology to government agencies and commercial businesses throughout North America, Europe and other parts of the world. The Company licenses its software to end users directly and also distributes its software products through license agreements with system integrators, original equipment manufacturers, resellers and other strategic partners. Revenues are generated from software licenses with customers and from the related sale of product maintenance, training and professional services. During fiscal year 2005, the Company embarked on an advanced Web indexing development effort focused on applying portions of the Company’s existing technology to locate contextually relevant information on the World Wide Web (the “Web”). This development initiative advanced to a “beta” stage as of January 31, 2005, at which date the technology contained more than 1 billion documents in the index. As of April 30, 2005, the Company is accepting “beta” customers for this service offering and commercial availability continues to be expected during fiscal 2006.

The Company’s operations are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, the effect of general business and economic trends; the ability to continue funding operating losses; fluctuations in operating results including impacts from reduced corporate IT spending and lengthier sales cycles; reduced customer demand for the Company’s products and services; continued success in technological advances and development including the Web indexing initiative; the delay or deferral of customer software implementations; the potential for U.S. Government agencies from which the Company has historically derived a significant portion of its revenues to be subject to budget cuts; a dependence on international sales; actual and potential competition by entities with greater financial resources, experience and market presence than the Company; changes in software and hardware products that may render the Company’s products incompatible with these systems; the potential for errors in its software products that may result in loss of or delay in market acceptance and sales; the dependence on proprietary technology licensed from third parties; possible adverse changes to the Company’s intellectual property which could harm its competitive position; the need to retain key personnel; the ability of the Company to use net operating loss carryforwards; the availability of additional capital financing on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all; and the present ownership structure of the Company which includes Allen Holdings Inc. and related parties who exercise voting control of the Company such that other shareholders will not have an effective say in any matters upon which its shareholders vote. Although management believes that its current cash position is sufficient to sustain operations through January 31, 2006, should cash needs dictate, additional cost saving measures could be enacted to conserve cash.

(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Financial Statement Presentation

These consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2005. In the opinion of management, the consolidated

financial statements for the fiscal periods presented herein include all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for these interim periods. The results of operations for the three-month period ended April 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year ending January 31, 2006.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates include an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, estimates for restructuring reserves, recoverability of deferred tax assets and recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on the Company’s financial position are reflected on the Company’s balance sheet as a separate component of shareholders’ equity under “Accumulated other comprehensive loss.” Generally, the functional currency of a foreign operation is deemed to be the local country’s currency. Consequently, for financial reporting purposes, assets and liabilities of the Company’s operations outside the U.S. are translated into U.S. Dollars using the exchange rate in effect as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses for those operations are translated using the average exchange rate for the period.

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Convera Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by Statement of Position 98-9, Software Revenue Recognition, with respect to certain transactions.

Revenue from the sale of software licenses is recognized upon shipment of product, provided that the fee is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and collection of the resulting receivable is considered probable. Historically, the Company has not experienced significant returns or exchanges of its products.

Revenue from training and professional services is recognized when the services are performed. Such services are sold as part of a bundled software license agreement as well as separately to customers who have previously purchased software licenses. When training or professional services that are not essential to the functionality of the software are sold as part of a bundled license agreement, the fair value of these services, based on the price charged for the services when sold separately, is deferred and recognized when the services are performed.

To the extent that a discount exists in a multiple element or “bundled” arrangement that includes a software license, the Company attributes that discount entirely to the delivered elements utilizing the residual method as described in paragraph 12 of SOP 97-2 as amended by SOP 98-9. The Company generally utilizes the residual methodology for recognizing revenue related to multi-element software agreements. Under the residual methodology, the Company recognizes the arrangement fee as follows: (a) the total fair value of the undelivered elements, as indicated by vendor-specific objective evidence, is deferred and (b) the difference between the total arrangement fee and the amount deferred for the undelivered elements is recognized as revenue related to the delivered elements. This assumes that (a) all other applicable revenue recognition criteria in SOP 97-2 are met and (b) the fair value of all of the undelivered elements is less than the arrangement fee.

Certain of the Company’s customers are Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and resellers. OEM contracts generally stipulate prepaid royalties due at varying dates as well as royalties due to the Company on the sale of the customer’s integrated product over a specified contract term, generally ranging from two to five years. With prepaid royalties, the Company recognizes revenue upon shipment of the software and/or software developer’s kit, as appropriate, provided the payment terms are considered normal and customary for these types of arrangements, the

fee is considered fixed and determinable, and all other criteria within SOP 97-2 have been met. To the extent the OEM product sales exceed the level provided for by the guaranteed prepaid royalty and additional royalties are due, the Company generally recognizes the additional royalties as the sales occur and are reported to the Company. Reseller contracts generally stipulate royalties due to the Company on the resale of the Company’s products and call for a guaranteed minimum royalty payment in exchange for the right to sell the Company’s products within a specified territory over a specified period of time. The Company recognizes the prepaid royalties as revenue upon delivery of the initial copy of the software, provided the payment terms are considered normal and customary for these types of arrangements, the fee is considered fixed and determinable, and all other criteria within SOP 97-2 have been met. To the extent the reseller’s product sales exceed the level provided for by the guaranteed minimum royalty and additional royalties are due, the Company generally recognizes the additional royalties as the reseller sales occur and are reported to the Company.

Customization work is sometimes required to ensure that the Company’s software functionality meets the requirements of its customers. Under these circumstances, the Company’s revenues are derived from fixed price contracts and revenue is recognized using the percentage of completion method based on the relationship of actual costs incurred to total costs estimated over the duration of the contract. Estimated losses on such contracts are charged against earnings in the period such losses become known.

Maintenance revenue related to customer support agreements is deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the respective agreements. Customer support agreements generally include bug fixes, telephone support and product release upgrades on a when and if available basis. When the Company provides a software license and the related customer support arrangement for one bundled price, the fair value of the customer support, based on the price charged for that element when sold separately, is deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the respective agreement.

Deferred revenue consists of deferred training and professional services revenues, deferred maintenance revenues and deferred license revenues.

The Company incurs shipping and handling costs which are recorded in cost of license revenues.

Research and Development Costs

Software development costs are included in research and development and are expensed as incurred for the Company’s software product offering (e.g., RetrievalWare). Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 86, “Accounting for the Cost of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed” requires the capitalization of certain software development costs once technological feasibility is established, which for the Company generally occurs upon completion of a working model. Capitalization ceases when the products are available for general release to customers, at which time amortization of the capitalized costs begins on a straight-line basis over the estimated product life, or on the ratio of current revenues to total projected product revenues, whichever is greater. For the Company’s core software product offering the period between achieving technological feasibility and the general availability of such software has been short, and software development costs qualifying for capitalization have been insignificant. Accordingly, the Company has not capitalized any software development costs related to its core software product offering. The Company’s newly created web indexing software, currently in beta stage, reached technological feasibility as of January 31, 2005. As a result, the Company began capitalizing software development costs related to the web indexing initiative during the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 and will continue to do so until this new product becomes commercially available. The Company continues to expect to have a web indexing service offering available during fiscal year 2006, at which time capitalization will cease and amortization of the capitalized costs will commence on the estimated useful life of the product.

Stock-based Compensation

SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”), allows companies to account for stock-based compensation either under the provisions of SFAS No. 123 or under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”), as amended by FASB Interpretation No. 44, “Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation (an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25).” The Company has elected to account for its stock-based compensation in accordance with

the provisions of APB 25. Stock options originally granted under the Company’s stock option plans have an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant, and accordingly no employee compensation cost related to the initial grant of options is included in expenses. Stock option modifications associated with a change in employee status to a non-employee have been accounted for as a new award and measured using the intrinsic value method under APB 25, resulting in the inclusion of compensation expense in the January 31, 2004 consolidated statement of operations. Non-vested shares of stock (referred to as deferred stock) granted under the Company’s stock option plan are measured at fair value on the date of grant based on the number of shares granted and the quoted price of the Company’s common stock. Such value is recognized as compensation expense over the corresponding service period. If an employee leaves the Company prior to the vesting of the deferred stock, the estimate of compensation expense recorded in previous periods is adjusted by decreasing compensation expense in the period of forfeiture.

Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards made under the respective plans in fiscal years 2005, 2004 and 2003 consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net loss and basic and diluted net loss per common share would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below.

	Three months ended April 30,
	2005			2004

Net loss, as reported	$	(2,469	)	$	(4,759	)
Stock-based compensation, as reported		367			293
Total stock-based compensation determined under fair value based method for all awards		(1,199	)		(1,524	)

Pro forma net loss	$	(3,301	)	$	(5,990	)


Basic and diluted net loss per common share,as reported		($ 0.06	)		($ 0.14	)
Basic and diluted net loss per common share,
pro forma		($ 0.09	)		($ 0.18	)

The pro forma net loss after applying the provisions of SFAS No. 123 is not necessarily representative of the effects on reported net loss for future years due to, among other things, vesting period of the stock options and the fair value of additional options in future years.

The fair value of each option was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following table shows the assumptions used for the grants that occurred in each fiscal year.

	Three months ended April 30,

	2005	2004

Expected volatility	86%	91%
Risk free interest rates	3.98%	3.08%
Dividend yield	None	None
Expected lives	5 years	5 years

The weighted average fair value of stock options granted under the Company’s stock option plans during the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004 was $3.37 and $2.81, respectively.

During fiscal year 2004, pursuant to the Company’s 2000 Stock Option Plan, several senior officers of the Company were awarded an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of deferred stock with a five-year cliff vesting provision, of which an aggregate of 1,150,000 shares of deferred stock were outstanding as of April 30, 2005. Pursuant to Mr. Condo’s (“the CEO”) May 2003 deferred stock agreement as amended in May 2004, Mr. Condo was awarded 600,000 deferred shares of the Company’s common stock. This award is part of the aforementioned 1,800,000 shares of deferred stock. Under the amended agreement, 150,000 shares of common stock vest on each consecutive one-year anniversary of the date of grant as long as the CEO remains continuously employed with the Company

through such vesting date. Notwithstanding such vesting schedule, all of the deferred shares will vest on the earlier occurrence of the CEO’s termination of employment without cause, death or disability or a change of control of the Company. On May 20, 2004, in accordance with the terms of the amended deferred stock agreement, 150,000 shares vested and the Company withheld 48,675 of the shares at a cost of approximately $121 to fulfill a portion of the CEO’s tax obligation with respect to the award. The deferred stock covering the remaining 700,000 shares, which is held by three senior officers, has a five-year cliff vesting provision, or vests immediately upon a change in control. The weighted-average fair value of the awards granted in fiscal year 2004 was $4.84 based on the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of award. Compensation cost for Mr. Condo’s stock award is expensed on a straight-line basis over the four-year vesting period. Compensation cost for the remaining 700,000 shares is expensed on a straight-line basis over the five-year vesting period.

Compensation expense, net of reversals for terminated employees, recorded by the Company in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations are set forth below.

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2004, the Company issued two-year warrants to purchase 137,711 shares of Convera common stock to a third party customer at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The warrants had an aggregate value of approximately $380 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected volatility of 108%; risk free interest rate of 2.12%; no dividend yield; and expected life of 2 years. The value of the warrants reduced the amount of revenue recognized and was recorded as an increase to additional paid-in-capital during the first quarter of fiscal year 2004. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2005, those warrants were exchanged in a cashless exercise for 84,744 shares of Company common stock.

(3) RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board 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. The SEC amended the effective dates for this pronouncement for public companies by issuing Release 33-8568. This statement is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after June 15, 2005.

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.

The Company is analyzing its options related to the adoption of Statement 123(R), which we will adopt as of February 1, 2006.

As permitted by Statement 123, the company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using Opinion 25’s intrinsic value method and, as such, generally recognizes no compensation cost for employee stock options. Accordingly, the adoption of Statement 123(R)’s fair value method will have a significant impact on our result of operations, although it will have no impact on our overall financial position. 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. However, had we adopted Statement 123(R) in prior periods, the impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of Statement 123 as described in the disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings per share in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements. Statement 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current literature. This requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase net financing cash flows in periods after adoption. While the company cannot estimate what those amounts will be in the future (because they depend on, among other things, when employees exercise stock options), the amount of operating cash flows recognized in prior periods for such excess tax deductions were $0 for the quarters ended April 30, 2005 and 2004.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, which amends APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions (SFAS No. 153), which requires a nonmonetary exchange of assets be accounted for at fair value, recognizing any gain or loss, if the exchange meets a commercial substance criterion and fair value is determinable. The commercial substance criterion is assessed by comparing the entity’s expected cash flows immediately before and after the exchange. This eliminates the “similar productive assets exception,” which accounts for the exchange of assets at book value with no recognition of gain or loss. Statement 153 will be effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 153 will have a material impact on our financial statements.

(4) NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

The Company follows SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share,” for computing and presenting net loss per share information. Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per common share excludes common stock equivalent shares and unexercised stock options as the computation would be anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per common share (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	2005			2004

Numerator:

( 5) RESTRUCTURINGS

In fiscal year 2002, as a result of the Company’s decision to exit the interactive media services market and in response to the downturn in the economy, the Company adopted several restructuring plans. The Company continued to reduce its workforce in fiscal years 2003 and 2004 and 2005 in an effort to reduce operating costs and increase efficiencies.

FY02 Q2 Restructuring

On May 10, 2001, the Company announced it was restructuring its business operations in response to the downturn in the economy and in conjunction with the integration of the IMS division’s operations following the Combination. As a result, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $2,933. As of January 31, 2003, liabilities related to employee severance and contractual obligations had been fully settled. In April 2005 the Company negotiated a settlement of the remaining facility lease obligation resulting in a reversal of $53 of previously accrued restructuring charges. The remaining accrual of $90 related to facility closings will be settled in the second quarter of fiscal year 2006.

The FY02 Q2 restructuring plan is outlined below including a summary of the restructuring charges, the payments made against those charges, non-cash adjustments made and the remaining restructuring liability as of April 30, 2005:

FY02 Q3 Restructuring

On October 3, 2001, the Company announced an additional restructuring plan to consolidate all operations around the development, marketing, sales and support of its enterprise class information infrastructure software products, Convera RetrievalWare and Convera Screening Room. As a result of the restructuring plan, the Company recorded restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal year 2003 of $5,195. As of January 31, 2004 payments related to employee severance and contractual obligations had been paid in full. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005, a non-cash adjustment of approximately $137 was made as projected payments related to this restructuring were less

than originally estimated. In April 2005 the Company negotiated a settlement of the remaining facility lease obligation resulting in a reversal of $29 of previously accrued restructuring charges. The remaining accrual of $432 related to facility closings will be settled in the second quarter of fiscal year 2006.

The FY02 Q3 restructuring plan is outlined below including a summary of the restructuring charges, the payments made against those charges, non-cash adjustments made and the remaining restructuring liability as of April 30, 2005:

FY05 Q3 Restructuring

On August 18, 2004, the Company announced that it was enacting further cost reduction measures to more closely align its expense structure with expected future revenue streams. As part of the restructuring, the Company reduced its personnel related costs, eliminated certain marketing programs, renegotiated real estate obligations and decreased other general operating expenses. As a result of this action, the Company reduced its workforce by 36 employees worldwide, including 13 individuals from the engineering group, six from the sales group, nine from the professional services group, four from the marketing group and four from the G&A group. In the third quarter of fiscal year 2005, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $518 related to severance costs for terminated employees. As of January 31, 2005 all severance costs related to the restructuring have been paid. The FY05 Q3 restructuring plan is summarized below.

FY05 Q4 Restructuring

On December 10, 2004 the Company announced that it had effected a re-alignment of its operational infrastructure. As part of this restructuring the Company reduced its personnel related costs through general workforce reductions and facility consolidations. In total the Company reduced its workforce by 41 employees worldwide, including 16 individuals from the sales group, ten from the engineering group, eight from the professional services group, four from the marketing group and three from the G&A group. The Company also further reduced marketing related expenses and decreased other general operating costs. Additionally, as part of this restructuring, the Company transferred certain existing personnel resources to the Company’s previously announced web indexing initiative.

The Company recorded a restructuring charge of $563 related to severance costs for terminated employees during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005. As of April 30, 2005 all severance payments were fully settled. The FY05 Q4 restructuring plan is summarized below.

The Company paid an aggregate of approximately $254 and $161 against the restructuring reserve during the quarters ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. As of April 30, 2005, the unpaid balance of $522 has been classified as a current restructuring reserve in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

(6) SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company is principally engaged in the design, development, marketing and support of enterprise search, retrieval and categorization solutions. All of the Company’s revenues result from the sale of the Company’s software products and related services for all fiscal year’s presented. During fiscal year 2005, the Company embarked on an advanced development effort focused on applying portions of its existing core technology to locate contextually relevant information on the World Wide Web (e.g., the Web indexing initiative). This initiative has not yet resulted in a commercially available product. Accordingly, the Company considers itself to have two reportable segments, specifically the license, implementation and support of its core software products business and the Web indexing initiative. The Company’s chief operating decision-making group reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues, expenses and relevant balance sheet items for both product segments and by geographic region for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance.

The following table reconciles the Company’s segment activity to its consolidated results of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004.

Major Customers

For the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, revenues derived from contracts and orders issued by agencies of the U.S. Government were approximately $1,659 and $3,850 representing 33% and 47% of total revenues, respectively. In the current quarter, revenues derived from one individual customer accounted for approximately 14% of the Company’s total revenues. In the quarter ended April 30, 2004, revenues derived from one individual customer accounted for approximately 18% of the Company’s total revenues and one reseller customer accounted for approximately 31% of the Company’s total revenues.

(7) INCOME TAXES

The Company’s interim effective income tax rate is based on management’s best current estimate of the expected annual effective income tax rate. Based on current projections of taxable income for the year ending January 31, 2006, the Company expects that it will generate additional NOLs for the remainder of the year. As of April 30, 2005, the Company’s deferred tax assets exceed its deferred tax liabilities. Given the Company’s inability to generate sufficient taxable income to realize the benefits of those net deferred tax assets, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against such deferred tax assets as of April 30, 2005.

(8) CONTINGENCIES

On November 1, 2001, DSMC, Incorporated (“DSMCi”) filed a complaint against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia in which it alleged that the Company misappropriated DSMCi’s trade secrets, and engaged in civil conspiracy with the NGT Library, Inc. (“NGTL”), an affiliate of the National Geographic Society, to obtain access to DSMCi’s trade secrets, and was unjustly enriched by the Company’s alleged access to and use of such trade secrets. In its complaint, DSMCi seeks $5 million in actual damages and $10 million in punitive damages from the Company. DSMCi subsequently amended its complaint to add copyright infringement-related claims. NGTL intervened in the litigation as a co-defendant with Convera, and filed counterclaims against DSMCi. Convera moved to compel arbitration of DSMCi’s claims; the District Court denied the motion, and Convera filed an interlocutory appeal. The D.C. Circuit, in November 2003, ruled that it did not have jurisdiction to consider the appeal. The litigation remains in the discovery phase in the District Court. The Company has investigated the allegations and at this time believes that they are without merit.

In addition, from time to time, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings, claims, disputes and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, including that noted above. The Company believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse affect on its financial position, operations or cash flow. However, because of the nature and inherent uncertainties of litigation, should the outcome of these actions or future actions be unfavorable, Convera’s financial position, operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected.

(9) LONG-TERM DEBT

On March 23, 2005 the Company secured a $5 million equipment term loan from Silicon Vally Bank, the primary subsidiary of Silicon Vally Bancshares (NASDAQ: SIVB). The four-year, term facility will provide financing for capital purchases including those for its Web indexing initiative. The loan bears interest at 7% per annum and is secured by a first lien on all corporate assets, excluding intellectual property. Monthly payments of interest only are due through March 2006. Thereafter, 36 monthly installments including principal and interest of $154,649 are to be made plus a balloon interest payment of $125,000 in March 2009. The note includes certain financial covenants including cash to debt ratios. The agreement also requires the Company to maintain a cash balance with SVB equal to twice the amount of the loan outstanding.

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

Overview

The Company believes RetrievalWare®, its “flagship” product, has unique capabilities supporting the needs of customers within government agencies, the media, entertainment and publishing arena and the life science sector that will enable it to capitalize on current market opportunities and achieve its operational goals. Going forward, the Company expects to focus a substantial amount of resources on further penetration of the national security, defense, law enforcement and intelligence gathering community with the United States and its allies. An important objective in this market is to upgrade existing installations of older versions of RetrievalWare® to the RetrievalWare® 8 platform that includes technical advancements such as categorization, dynamic classification, profiling and distributed indexing software capabilities.

Further, the Company also expects to increase its efforts with regard to the previously announced Web indexing initiative. This research and development initiative is an advanced effort aimed at applying portions of the Company’s existing technology to searching and indexing contextually relevant information on the World Wide Web. This development initiative advanced to a “beta” stage as of January 31, 2005, at which date the technology contained more than 1 billion documents in the index. As of April 30, 2005, the Company is accepting “beta” customers for this service offering. During fiscal year 2005, the Company entered into a hosting facility agreement with AT&T in anticipation of a commercial launch of this service offering currently expected to be during fiscal year 2006. In assessing the commercial sector, the Company will now look to focus a majority of its efforts on the media, entertainment and publishing sector for both RetrievalWare® and the emerging Web indexing technology. This is to capitalize on the alignment between customer requirements within this sector seeking both Intranet and Web-based search and categorization technologies. Commercial opportunities outside of these areas will continue to be evaluated but will not be a primary focus going-forward.

Management’s primary objective is to achieve profitability and positive cash flow from operations without hampering development, sales and marketing efforts. The Company is committed to investing in the enhancement of its products to meet the needs of its customers and prospects. To achieve its main objective, the Company continually evaluates revenue opportunities to determine the market sectors in which the Company should concentrate its sales and marketing efforts. The Company’s business environment and the computer software industry in general are characterized by intense competition, rapid technological changes, changes in customer requirements and emerging new market segments. The Company competes particularly intensely within the commercial sector where its market position has not been as strong as it has been within the government sector. As such, the Company has elected to focus the majority of it’s efforts within the commercial setting on the media, entertainment and publishing sectors. The Company believes this segment may afford greater opportunities when compared to addressing a wide array of commercial market segments. The Company’s competitors include many companies that are larger and more established and have substantially more resources. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced gross margins and loss of market share, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. To address the competition, the Company will continue to invest in research and development to advance its leadership position in linguistic analysis, scalability, performance, and taxonomy development and deployment. The Company will also make additional investments in specific product features to better serve the needs of customers looking for online customer service and support solutions.

In 2002 and 2003, the Company’s results of operations were impacted by the general downturn in the economy, which resulted in a lengthier sales cycle, particularly in the commercial marketplace. Further, reduced information technology budgets and customer cash constraints caused by the difficult business environment negatively impacted the Company’s business. Through a number of restructurings initiated from fiscal years 2002 through 2005, the Company aligned its resources in an effort to ensure it continued to capitalize on markets that have been consistently successful for the Company, including the federal government, and to focus more resources on those areas of the commercial business that present vertical market opportunities. The restructurings, which are described in this section and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, streamlined the professional services, customer support and sales organizations through reductions in headcount to improve the productivity of each of those organizations as well as reduced management personnel and other overhead costs in the marketing, development and administrative

organizations within the Company. Management continually assesses historical results as well as future opportunities to determine whether resources are aligned properly. Where necessary, additional changes may be made to the organization to ensure that the Company continues to focus on achieving profitable operating results. A detailed review of the numerous risks and challenges facing the Company is contained in the Forward Looking Statements section beginning on page 23.

Results of Operations

For the quarter ended April 30, 2005, total revenues were $5.1 million, a decrease of 38% over total revenues of $8.2 million in the same quarter last year. The net loss for the quarter ended April 30, 2005 was $2.5 million, or $0.06 per common share, compared to a net loss of $4.8 million, or $0.14 per common share in the first quarter last year.

The following charts summarize the components of revenues and the categories of expenses, including the amounts expressed as a percentage of total revenues, for the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively (dollars in thousands).

Revenues

License revenues decreased 63% to $2.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005 from $ 5.9 million for the three months ended April 30, 2004. The decrease in license revenues is primarily attributable to a $1.5 million, non-recurring compliance transaction realized from the international sector in the prior year quarter, as well as procurement delays and funding constraints across the federal sector during the first fiscal quarter of 2006. Federal license revenue decreased by 95% over the same period last year due to the aforementioned delays and budgetary constraints. Commercial license revenues decreased by 33% compared to the same period last year due to the Company’s decision in the prior fiscal year to reduce its marketing and selling efforts towards this segment for its software product offerings (e.g., RetrievalWare). International license revenues decreased by 37% over the same quarter last year due to the large, non-recurring compliance transaction noted above.

Services revenues, which include amounts generated through software implementation, training and other professional services, increased 44% to $ 0.8 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005 from $0.6 million for the three months ended April 30, 2004. Services revenues for the federal and international sectors increased 61% and 28% respectively, while services revenues for the commercial sector declined 5% for the first quarter of fiscal 2006. The increase in service revenues generated from the federal and international sectors in the current quarter compared to the same quarter of last year was driven by three large, government engagements. The decline in commercial services revenue is attributed to the aforementioned decision by the Company to temper its marketing and selling efforts towards this segment.

Software maintenance and customer support revenues increased 18% to $2.1 million for the quarter ended April 30, 2005 from $1.7 million in the same quarter last year. The increase in maintenance revenues in the current quarter compared to the same period last year is due primarily to the Company’s continuing efforts to renew certain lapsed customer maintenance agreements.

For the three months ended April 30, 2005, total revenues derived from sales to agencies of the U.S. Federal government were approximately $1.7 million, representing 33% of total revenues. Revenue derived from one single customer accounted for 14% of the reported revenue for the period.

Revenues from international operations are generated primarily from software licenses and related support services with various European commercial and government customers. The Company’s international sales operation, Convera Technologies International, Ltd. (“CTIL”), is headquartered in the United Kingdom. CTIL’s revenues decreased 25% for the three months ended April 30, 2005 to $1.9 million from $2.6 million in the first quarter last year due to the previously discussed large, non-recurring compliance transaction realized in the prior year period.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of license revenues decreased 35% to $0.4 million in the first quarter of the current year from $0.7 million in the first quarter last year. Cost of license revenues as a percentage of license revenues was 20% in the current quarter compared to 11% in the same quarter last year. The decrease in cost of license revenues is primarily attributable to lower personnel costs and reduced third party licensing costs. The increase in cost of revenues as a percentage of license revenues was due to reduced revenues in the first fiscal quarter of 2006 versus the same period last year.

Cost of services revenues of $0.8 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005 increased 16% from $0.7 million in the first quarter last fiscal year. Cost of services revenues as a percentage of services revenues was 99% in the current quarter compared to 123% in the same quarter last year. The increase in cost of services revenues is attributable to an increase in federal services personnel anticipated to address current and future market opportunities and customer requests coupled with the utilization of subcontractors to complete service related contracts. The improvement in cost of services revenues as a percentage of services revenues during the first fiscal quarter of 2006 versus the prior year period is due to increased revenues within the services area.

Cost of maintenance revenues of $0.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005 decreased by 58%, compared with the first quarter of last fiscal year. As a percentage of maintenance revenues, cost of maintenance was 11% in the current quarter compared to 30% in the same quarter last year. The decrease in cost of maintenance revenues as compared to the prior year comparable period was due to reduced personnel costs within the customer support organization.

Operating expenses

Sales and marketing expenses decreased 56% in the quarter ended April 30, 2005 to $2.2 million from $5.0 million in the first quarter last year, representing 43% and 61% of total revenues, respectively. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses is primarily attributable to reduced personnel costs and marketing program expenditures as well as lower commission expense due to reduced revenues during the first fiscal quarter of 2006.

Total research and product development costs decreased 55% to $1.7 million in the current quarter compared to $3.6 million in the same quarter last year. During the first fiscal quarter of 2006, the Company adopted FAS 86 (which requires capitalization of software development costs once technological feasibility has been achieved) related to the Company’s Web indexing initiative as previously discussed. FAS 86 governs the practice by which newly developed technology (e.g., software in this case), is accounted for once technological feasibility has been determined. Convera’s Web indexing initiative was determined to have reached technological feasibility with the attainment of a one billion page Web index as announced January 31, 2005. Based on this achievement, the Company began capitalizing software development costs during the first fiscal quarter of 2006 and will continue to do so until such time as the new product becomes commercially available. At the time of commercial availability, capitalization of the Web indexing related research and product development costs will cease and amortization of the capitalized costs will commence over the products estimated useful life, which has not yet been determined. Accordingly, the Company capitalized approximately $2.3 million in research and product development costs during the first fiscal quarter of 2006. Absent the adoption of FAS 86, research and product development costs would have increased 8% when compared to the same period last year. As reported, research and product development costs as a percentage of total revenues were 33% in the current quarter compared to 45% in the first quarter last year. The decrease compared to last year was due solely to the adoption of FAS 86.

General and administrative expenses decreased 5% to $2.3 million in the current quarter from $2.4 million in the first quarter of last year, representing 45% and 30% of total revenues, respectively. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to reduced personnel related costs, offset by higher accountancy expenditures.

Interest income, net

Net interest income decreased slightly to $26,000 for the first quarter of the current fiscal year, compared to $37,000 in the first quarter of last fiscal year. The decrease is a result of interest expense obligations associated with the Silicon Valley Bank debt facility.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s combined balance of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at April 30, 2005 as compared to January 31, 2005 is summarized below (in thousands).

	April 30, 2005		January 31, 2005		Change

Cash and cash equivalents	$	21,701	$	17,766	$	3,935
Investments		71		71		—

Total	$	21,772	$	17,837	$	3,935

During the three months ended April 30, 2005, the Company used cash of $1.8 million to fund operating activities, compared to $9.0 million used in the same period last year. The net loss of $2.5 million was offset by non-cash charges totaling approximately $1.0 million including depreciation of approximately $0.5 million, amortization of developed technology of $0.1 million, and amortization of deferred stock compensation of $0.4 million. Decreases to accounts receivable provided $1.2 million, while decreases to the restructuring reserve used $0.3 million. Decreases to accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued bonuses and deferred revenues used cash of $1.9 million. A decrease to prepaid expenses and other assets also provided cash of $0.7 million. During the three months ended April 30, 2004, $9.0 million was used to fund operating activities. The net loss of $4.8 million was offset by non-cash charges totaling $0.8 million, including depreciation of $0.4 million, amortization of developed technology of $0.1 million, and amortization of deferred stock compensation of $0.3 million. An increase in accounts receivable reduced cash from operating activities by $5.3 million, whereas increases in accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued bonuses and deferred revenues and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets provided $0.9 million. The decrease in the restructuring reserve used cash of $0.2 million.

For the quarter ended April 30, 2005, cash flows from investing activities used $2.3 million related to purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements and capitalized software development cost as required with the adoption of FAS 86. For the quarter ended April 30, 2004, purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements used cash of $0.4 million.

Financing activities provided cash of $7.9 million for the quarter ended April 30, 2005. Approximately $5.0 million was secured from a four-year, term loan financing from Silicon Valley Bank, $2.9 million was provided by the exercise of employee stock options, and approximately $38,000 was provided by the issuance of stock under the employee stock purchase plan. For the quarter ended April 30, 2004 financing activities provided cash of $48,000, of which $33,000 was provided by the issuance of stock under the employee stock purchase plan and $15,000 was provided by the exercise of employee stock options.

At April 30, 2005 the Company’s balance of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments was $ 21.8 million. The Company believes that its current balance of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and its funds generated from operations, if any, will be sufficient to fund the Company’s current projected cash needs for at least the next twelve months. Excluding the cash acquired as part of the Combination and other acquisitions, the Company has historically been entirely funded by sales of its common stock. If the actions taken by management are not effective in achieving profitable operating results, the Company may be required to pursue additional external sources of financing to support its operations and capital requirements. The Company has previously disclosed that it may elect to seek additional funding for its Web indexing initiative. There can be no assurance that external sources of financing will be available if required, or that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.

Forward Looking Statements

Certain written and oral statements made by the Company may constitute “forward-looking statements” as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements made in this report and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All statements which address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future including statements relating to volume growth, share of sales and earnings per share growth and statements expressing general optimism about future operating results are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our Company’s historical experience and our present expectations or projections. As and when made, management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements since such statements speak only as of the date when made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The following are some of the factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from the expected results described in or underlying the Company’s forward-looking statements:

The Company has had a history of operating losses and may incur future losses; if the Company is unable to achieve profitability, the Company’s stock price will likely suffer and steps which the Company may take to reduce its expenditures or preserve its existing funds could harm its sales and financial results

The Company believes that its future profitability will depend on its ability to effectively market existing and newly developed software products through a balanced multi-channel distribution network and on its ability to commercially launch its Web indexing initiative. The Company cannot assure that its costs to develop, introduce and promote enhanced or new products will not exceed its expectations, or that these products will generate revenues sufficient to offset these expenses. The Company has operated at a loss for each of the past three fiscal years. For the fiscal years ended January 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, the Company’s net losses were approximately $19.8 million, $18.1 million, and $29.1 million, respectively. These losses include the Company’s expenditures associated with selling software products and further developing software products during these years. The Company plans to continue to invest in these programs and, accordingly, it cannot assure that its operating losses will not continue in the future. Continued losses could reduce the Company’s liquidity and negatively affect its stock price. As of April 30, 2005, the Company’s balances of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were approximately $21.8 million. The Company believes its current balance of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, combined with any funds generated from its operations and available from credit facilities will be sufficient to fund its operations for at least the next twelve months based upon its estimates of funds required to operate its business during such period. However, if, at any point, due to continued losses, the Company ceases to have sufficient funds to continue its operations, it would need to decrease its expenditures including those associated with the Web indexing initiative. As a result of any decrease in expenditures, the Company may need to terminate employees,curtail research and development programs and take other steps to reduce the amount of funds it expends in its operations. This could have a negative effect on the Company’s ability to develop product improvements or new products that will achieve market acceptance. This could in turn, have a negative impact on the Company’s sales and financial results.

The Company experiences quarterly fluctuations in its operating results, which may adversely affect its stock price; for example, the Company’s total revenues for the last four quarters were $5.1 million, $6.1 million, 6.3 million, $5.1 million respectively, and the price per share of its common stock during those quarters ranged from $2.16 to $6.06.

The Company’s quarterly operating results have varied substantially in the past and are likely to continue to vary substantially from quarter to quarter in the future, due to a variety of factors including the following:

	•	the downturn in capital spending by customers as a result of general economic conditions;

	•	reduced customer demand for the Company’s products and services;

	•	the delay or deferral of customer implementations;

	•	the budget cycles of the Company’s customers;

	•	seasonality of individual customer buying patterns;

	•	an increase in competition in the software industry;

	•	the size and timing of individual transactions;

	•	the timing of new software introductions and software enhancements by the Company and its competitors;

	•	continued success in technological advances and development including the Web indexing initiative;

	•	changes in operating expenses and personnel;

	•	changes in accounting principles, such as a requirement that stock options be included in compensation, which would increase the Company’s expense and have a negative effect on earnings;

	•	the overall trend towards industry consolidation; and

	•	changes in general economic and geo-political conditions and specific economic conditions in the computer and software industries.

In particular, the Company’s period-to-period operating results have historically been significantly dependent upon the timing of the closing of significant license agreements. Because purchasing the Company’s software products often requires significant capital investment, its customers may defer or decide not to make their purchases. This means sales can involve long sales cycles of six months or more. The Company derives a significant portion of its revenues from sales to agencies of the U.S. Government, and, therefore, the budget cycle of the U.S. Government impacts the Company’s total revenues. In certain financial quarters, the Company may derive a significant portion of its revenues from a single customer. For example, revenues derived from one customer accounted for approximately 14% of the Company’s total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006. The Company has historically recorded a significant portion of its total quarterly license revenues in the third month of a quarter, with a concentration of these revenues occurring in the last half of that third month. The Company expects these revenue patterns to continue. Despite these uncertainties in the Company’s revenue patterns, it bases its operating expenses upon anticipated revenue levels, and the Company incurs these expenses on an approximately ratable basis throughout a quarter. As a result, if expected revenues are deferred or otherwise not realized in a quarter for any reason, the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition would be materially adversely affected.

In addition, steps which the Company has taken or may take in the future to control operating expenses may hamper its development, sales and marketing efforts and, ultimately, its operating results. For instance, the Company aligned its resources through a number of restructurings during fiscal years 2002 through 2005 to attempt to focus on markets that have been consistently successful for it. These restructurings were intended to streamline the Company’s professional services, customer support and sales organizations by reducing the number of its employees, improve the productivity of each of those organizations and reduce management personnel and other overhead costs in its marketing, development and administrative organizations. However, the loss of key personnel in such restructurings and any severance and other costs incurred in such restructurings could negatively affect the Company’s quarterly operating results and adversely affect its stock price.

The Company derives a significant portion of its revenues from sales to U.S. Government agencies (for example, for the quarter ended April 30, 2005, total revenues derived from sales to agencies of the U.S. Government represented approximately 33% of the Company’s total revenues); U.S. Government agencies are subject to budget cuts and, consequently, the Company may lose revenues upon which it has historically relied, and a change in the size and timing of the Company’s U.S. Government contracts may materially affect the Company’s operating results

For the quarter ended April 30, 2005, total revenues derived from sales to agencies of the U.S. Government were approximately $1.7 million, representing 33% of total revenues. For the quarter ended April 30, 2004, revenues derived from sales to agencies of the U.S. Government were approximately $3.9 million, or 47% of total revenues. While the U.S. Government has at times increased spending on defense, information systems and homeland security initiatives, some government agencies have realized budget reductions which may adversely impact their purchasing decisions and timing. The Company is actively pursuing several opportunities for business with certain U.S. Government agencies. While the nature and timing of these opportunities, as well as the ability to complete business transactions related to these opportunities, is subject to certain risks and uncertainties, successful completion of any of these transactions could have a material impact on the Company’s future operating results and financial position. There can be no assurance that the Company will complete any of these potential transactions.

The Company depends on international sales, particularly in the United Kingdom (for example, for the quarter ended April 30, 2005, total revenues derived from international sales represented approximately 37% of the Company’s total revenues); any economic downturn, changes in laws, changes in currency exchange rates or political unrest in those countries could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business

For the quarter ended April 30, 2005, total revenues derived from international sales were approximately $1.9 million, representing approximately 37% of total revenues. For the quarter ended April 30, 2004, revenues derived from international sales were approximately $2.6 million, representing approximately 32% of total revenues. Most of the Company’s international sales are in the United Kingdom. The Company’s international operations have historically exposed it to longer accounts receivable and payment cycles and fluctuations in currency exchange rates. International sales are made mostly from the Company’s U.K. foreign subsidiary and are denominated in British pounds or EUROs. As of April 30, 2005, approximately 16% and 18% of the Company’s total consolidated accounts receivable were denominated in British pounds or EUROs, respectively. Additionally, the Company’s exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations arises in part from intercompany accounts in which royalties on the Company’s foreign subsidiary’s sales are charged to the Company’s foreign subsidiary and recorded as intercompany receivables on the books of the Company. The Company is also exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as the financial results of the Company’s foreign subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars in consolidation. Since exchange rates vary, those results when translated may vary from expectations and adversely impact overall expected profitability.

The Company’s international operations expose it to a variety of other risks that could seriously impede its financial condition and growth. These risks include the following:

	•	potentially adverse tax consequences;

	•	difficulties in complying with regulatory requirements and standards;

	•	trade restrictions and changes in tariffs;

	•	import and export license requirements and restrictions; and

	•	uncertainty of the effective protection of the Company’s intellectual property rights in certain foreign countries.

If any of these risks described above materialize, the Company’s international sales could decrease and its foreign operations could suffer.

The Company is in an extremely competitive market, and if it fails to compete effectively or respond to rapid technological change, the Company’s revenues and market share will be adversely affected

The Company’s business environment and the software industry in general are characterized by intense competition, rapid technological changes, changes in customer requirements and emerging new market segments. The Company’s competitors include many companies that are larger and more established and have substantially more resources than the Company. Current and potential competitors have established or may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the ability of their products to address the needs of the markets which the Company serves. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced gross margins and loss of market share, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

In order for the Company’s strategy to succeed and to remain competitive, the Company must leverage its core technology to develop new product offerings, update existing features and add new components to its current products such as support for new datatypes and taxonomies for specific vertical markets. These development efforts are expensive, and the Company plans to fund these developments with its existing capital resources, and other sources, such as equity issuances and borrowings, which may be available to it. If these developments do not generate substantial revenues, the Company’s business and results of operations will be adversely affected. The Company cannot assure that it will successfully develop any new products, complete them on a timely basis or at all, achieve market acceptance or generate significant revenues with them.

The Company designs its products to work with certain systems and changes to these systems may render its products incompatible with these systems, and the Company may be unable to sell its products

The Company’s ability to sell its products depends on the compatibility of its products with other software and hardware products. These products may change or new products may appear that are incompatible with the Company’s products. If the Company fails to adapt its products to remain compatible with other vendors’ software and hardware products or fails to adapt its products as quickly as its competitors, the Company may be unable to sell its products.

The Company’s software products are complex and may contain errors that could damage its reputation and decrease sales

The Company’s complex software products may contain errors that people may detect at any point in the products’ life cycles. The Company cannot assure that, despite its testing and quality assurance efforts and similar efforts by current and potential customers, errors will not be found. The discovery of an error may result in loss of or delay in market acceptance and sales.

The Company depends on proprietary technology licensed from third parties; if the Company loses these licenses, it could delay shipments of products incorporating this technology and could be costly

The Company’s products use some of the technology that it licenses from third parties, generally on a nonexclusive basis. The Company believes that there are alternative sources for each of the material components of technology it licenses from third parties. However, the termination of any of these licenses, or the failure of the third-party licensors to adequately maintain or update their products, could delay the Company’s ability to ship these products while it seeks to implement technology offered by alternative sources. Any required replacement licenses could prove costly. Also, any delay, to the extent it becomes extended or occurs at or near the end of a fiscal quarter, could harm the Company’s quarterly results of operations. While it may be necessary or desirable in the future to obtain other licenses relating to one or more of the Company’s products or relating to current or future technologies, the Company cannot assure that it will be able to do so on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Because of the technical nature of the Company’s business, its intellectual property is extremely important to its business, and adverse changes to the Company’s intellectual property would harm its competitive position

The Company believes that its success depends, in part, on its ability to protect its proprietary rights and technology. Historically, the Company has relied on a combination of copyright, patents, trademark and trade secret laws, employee confidentiality and invention assignment agreements, distribution and OEM software protection agreements and other methods to safeguard the Company’s technology and software products. Risks associated with the Company’s intellectual property, include the following:

	•	pending patent applications may not be issued;

	•	intellectual property laws may not protect the Company’s intellectual property rights;

	•	third parties may challenge, invalidate, or circumvent any patent issued to the Company;

	•	rights granted under patents issued to the Company may not provide competitive advantages to it;

	•	unauthorized parties may attempt to obtain and use information that the Company regards as proprietary despite the Company’s efforts to protect its proprietary rights;

	•	others may independently develop similar technology or design around any patents issued to the Company; and

	•	effective protection of intellectual property rights may be limited or unavailable in some foreign countries in which the Company operates.

The Company depends on its key personnel, the loss of whom would adversely affect the Company’s business, and the Company may have difficulty attracting and retaining skilled employees

The Company’s success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of its key management, marketing, technical and operational personnel. The Company generally does not utilize employment agreements

for its key employees. The loss of the services of one or more key employees could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results. The Company also believes that its future success will depend in large part upon its ability to attract and retain additional highly skilled management, technical, marketing, product development, operational personnel and consultants. Competition for such personnel, particularly software developers, professional service consultants and other technical personnel, is intense, and pay scales in the software industry have significantly increased. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel.

The Company may not be able to use net operating loss carryforwards

As of January 31, 2005, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $165 million. The deferred tax assets representing the benefits of these carryforwards have been offset completely by a valuation allowance due to the Company’s lack of an earnings history. The realization of the benefits of these carryforwards depends on sufficient taxable income in future years. Lack of future earnings could adversely affect the Company’s ability to utilize these carryforwards. Additionally, past or future changes in the Company’s ownership and control could limit the ability to utilize these carryforwards. Despite the carryforwards, the Company may have income tax liability in future years due to the application of the alternative minimum tax rules of the United States Internal Revenue Code.

As of April 30, 2005, the Company’s balances of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were approximately $21.8 million. While the Company believes it will have sufficient funds for its operations for at least the next twelve months, it is possible that the Company will need additional capital during or after that time. The Company may need additional capital in the future, and it may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and if the Company does not receive any necessary additional capital, it could harm the Company’s financial condition and future prospects

As of April 30, 2005, the Company’s balances of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were approximately $21.8 million. The Company believes its current balance of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, combined with any funds generated from its operations and available from credit facilities will be sufficient to meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months based upon its estimates of funds required to operate its business during such period. However, during or after that time, the Company may need to raise additional funds for the following purposes:

	•	fund the Company’s operations, including sales, marketing and research and development programs including the Web initiative;

	•	fund any growth the Company experiences;

	•	enhance and/or expand the range of products and services the Company offers; for example, the Company may upgrade its existing products or develop new products, including products capable of searching and/or indexing the Web, and the Company may expand its training and other professional services for its products;

	•	increase the Company’s promotional and marketing activities; or

	•	respond to competitive pressures and/or perceived opportunities, such as investment, acquisition and international expansion activities.

The Company cannot reassure its investors that if the Company needs additional capital that it will be available, and if so, on terms beneficial to the Company. Historically, the Company has obtained external financing primarily from sales of its common stock. To the extent the Company raises additional capital by issuing equity securities, its shareholders may experience substantial dilution. If the Company is unable to obtain additional capital, it may then attempt to preserve its available resources by various methods including deferring the creation or satisfaction of commitments, reducing expenditures on its research and development programs or otherwise scaling back its operations. If the Company were unable to raise such additional capital or defer certain costs as described above, that inability would have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and prospects.

The Company’s stock price may fluctuate which may make it difficult to resell shares of the Company’s stock

The market price of the Company’s common stock has been highly volatile. For example, in the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, the market price per share of the Company’s common stock ranged from $4.37 to $6.06. This volatility may adversely affect the price of the Company’s common stock, and its stockholders may not be able to resell their shares of common stock following periods of volatility because of the market’s adverse reaction to this volatility. The Company anticipates that this volatility, which frequently affects the stock of software companies, will continue. Factors that could cause such volatility include:

	•	future announcements concerning the Company or its competitors;

	•	quarterly variations in the Company’s operating results;

	•	actual or anticipated announcements of technical innovations or new product developments by the Company or its competitors;

	•	general conditions in the Company’s industry;

	•	developments concerning litigation; and

	•	worldwide economic and financial conditions.

On occasion, the equity markets, and in particular the markets for software companies, have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations have affected the market price for many companies’ securities and maybe unrelated to the companies’ operating performance.

The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, bylaws, ownership and Delaware law contain provisions that could discourage a third party from acquiring the Company and consequently decrease the market value of an investment in the Company’s stock

Some provisions of the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws and of Delaware law could delay or prevent a change of control or changes in the Company’s management that a stockholder might consider favorable. Any delay or prevention of a change of control or change in management could cause the market price of the Company’s common stock to decline.

Allen Holding Inc. and related parties exercise voting control of the Company, and the Company’s other shareholders will not have an effective say in any matters upon which its shareholders vote

Allen Holding Inc., together with Allen & Company Incorporated, Herbert A. Allen and certain related parties, beneficially owns more than 50% of the Company’s voting power, and would therefore be able to control the outcome of matters requiring a stockholder vote. These matters could include offers to acquire the Company and elections of directors. Allen Holding, Inc., Mr. Allen and Allen & Company may have interests which are different than the interests of the Company’s other stockholders.

The Company has not yet been required to perform an assessment of its internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Company may, during its process, encounter delays in such process or deficiencies with respect to certain internal control practices

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Company will be required, beginning with its fiscal year ending January 31, 2006 or, at the latest, January 31, 2007, to include in its annual report management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and the Company’s audited financial statements as of the end of its prior fiscal year. Furthermore, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm will be required to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on its audit. The Company is in the initial stages of completing the documentation of its internal controls. Due to the number of controls to be documented and examined, the complexity of the project, as well as the subjectivity involved in determining effectiveness of controls, the Company cannot be certain that it will complete its Section 404 compliance work on a timely basis or, if it does, that all of the Company’s internal controls will be considered effective. In addition, the guidelines for the evaluation and attestation of internal control systems have only recently been formalized, and the evaluation and attestation processes are new and untested. Therefore, the Company can

give no assurances that its systems will satisfy the new regulatory requirements. If the Company fails to timely complete its Section 404 compliance work, including this assessment, or if the Company’s independent public accounting firm cannot timely attest to the Company’s assessment, the Company could be subject to regulatory sanctions and a loss of public confidence in its internal controls. Also, any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm the Company’s operating results or commercial relationships or cause the Company to fail to timely meet its regulatory reporting obligations. Any of these failures could have a negative effect on the trading price of the Company’s stock.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

The Company’s market risk is principally confined to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and potentially adverse effects of differing tax structures. International revenues from CTIL, the Company’s foreign sales subsidiary located in the United Kingdom were approximately 37% of total revenues in the first quarter of fiscal year 2006. International sales are made predominantly from the Company’s foreign subsidiary and are typically denominated in British pounds, EUROs or U.S. Dollars. As of April 30, 2005, approximately 16% and 18% of total consolidated accounts receivable were denominated in British pounds and EUROs, respectively. The majority of these receivables are due within 90 days of the end of fiscal year 2005, and all receivables are due within one year. Additionally, the Company is exposed to potential foreign currency gains or losses resulting from intercompany accounts that are not of a long-term nature. The Company is also exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as the financial results of CTIL are translated into U.S. dollars in consolidation. As exchange rates vary, those results when translated may vary from expectations and adversely impact overall expected profitability.

As of April 30, 2005, approximately 2% and less than 1% of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were denominated in British pounds and EUROs, respectively. Cash equivalents consist of funds deposited in money market accounts with original maturities of three months or less. The Company also has a certificate of deposit for $71,000, which is pledged to collateralize a letter of credit required for a leased facility. Given the relatively short maturity periods of cash equivalents and short-term investments, the cost of these investments approximates their fair values and the Company’s exposure to fluctuations in interest rates is limited.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in making known to them, on a timely basis, material information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls subsequent to the date the Company completed its evaluation.
