2003 Developments

 

Financial Statement Adjustments

 

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, in 2003 we made adjustments to our accounting with respect to certain transactions we had previously recorded between January 1, 1999 and September 30, 2002. The revenue adjustments that were made mostly resulted in revenue being deferred and recognized in subsequent periods, although in certain situations the adjustments resulted in revenue reversals. The adjustments included amounts deferred and reversed as a result of our application of the principles of contract accounting and amounts reversed as a result of the presence of concurrent transactions. The net effect of these revenue adjustments was to increase total revenue by $385.8 million in 2002 and to decrease total revenue by $137.6 million, $477.0 million and $130.9 million in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. We also made certain deferrals and reversals to our expenses in connection with these revenue adjustments and made certain other adjustments to our expenses. The net effect of these expense adjustments was to increase expense by $45.8 million in 2002 and to decrease expense by $195.6 million, $34.6 million and $5.4 million in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. As a result of these adjustments to our revenues and expenses, we also made certain income tax-related adjustments which increased our tax expense by $235.2 million and $25.6 million in 2002 and 2001, respectively, and decreased our tax expense by $166.9 million, $51.5 million and $5.2 million in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

 

The statement of operations impact of the adjustments discussed above was to decrease our net loss by $104.8 million and $32.4 million in 2002 and 2001, respectively, increase our net loss by $275.5 million in 2000, decrease our net income by $74.0 million in 1999 and increase our net income by $5.2 million in 1998. The balance sheet impact of these adjustments was to decrease our stockholders’ equity by $204.7 million, $310.4 million, $328.2 million and $65.4 million at December 31, 2002, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and increase our stockholders’ equity by $6.7 million at December 31, 1998.

 

In sum, the cumulative impact of the revenue adjustments was to reduce revenue by $359.7 million, which was comprised of $127.3 million of revenue that was reversed and $232.4 million of revenue that was deferred for potential recognition in subsequent periods. The cumulative impact to net loss of the revenue and expense adjustments was to increase our net loss by $207.1 million.

 

Revenue of $107.8 million that was deferred as a result of the changes discussed above was subsequently recognized in 2003, thereby reducing the cumulative impact of the adjustments to net income. As of December 31, 2003, $124.6 million of deferred revenue remains on our balance sheet and may be recognized in the future.

Industry Background

 

Today’s competitive business environment has led many companies in diverse industries to seek greater operating efficiency while improving flexibility and responsiveness to changing market conditions. In addition to facing higher competitive standards with respect to meeting customer demands for product quality, variety and price, businesses also recognize the need to improve asset utilization, reduce the cost of goods, reduce inventories, shorten lead times and reduce the cost of fulfilling orders. Furthermore, a company’s extended supply chain may span multiple continents, requiring suppliers in one part of the world to collaborate with a plant in another to serve customers in yet a third location. These forces are prompting companies to collaborate with a broad range of suppliers and customers to improve efficiencies across multi-enterprise supply chains.

 

We believe that traditional enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems do not provide both the forward visibility across divisions or enterprises and the high-speed decision-support capabilities that we believe are necessary to quickly plan and execute decisions. To increase competitiveness, we believe companies are looking for solutions that can be integrated with their existing systems to provide tools for managing the variability in their supply chains, allowing them to monitor events in order, inventory and transportation, evaluate tradeoffs for fast and accurate decision-making and execute their plans across the critical processes in their supply chains.

 

The growth of the Internet and the proliferation of software applications have accelerated many companies’ efforts to increase efficiencies by leveraging information technology based on open standards. We believe this has prompted demands for a dynamic, open and integrated environment among customers, suppliers and designers. In response to these evolving market forces, many companies have sought to re-engineer their business processes to reduce manufacturing cycle times, shift from mass production to order-driven manufacturing, increase the use of outsourcing and share information more readily with vendors and customers.

 

Integration has become an increasingly important issue for enterprises to lower costs and realize value from their diverse environment of applications and distributed systems. Customers seek integration at several levels — business process, applications, user interface, data and technology. A wide variety of companies are pursuing the integration market opportunity, including ERP companies, leading Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) vendors, Systems Integrators (SIs) and other information technology (IT) services organizations, but no single company has demonstrated a complete solution to the various requirements sought by customers.

 

Leading software and technology companies are developing offshore (global) workforces, in part to take advantage of the technical talent and lower costs of human resources in India, China and other locations. This has led many companies to initiate their own offshore operations or outsource some run and maintain processes, as well as development and implementation activities, to Offshore IT Services (OIS) firms.

 

Development of the i2 Solution

 

Advanced Planning and Scheduling.    We have offered an expanding set of supply chain management solutions since the company was founded nearly 16 years ago. Our founders, Sanjiv Sidhu and Ken Sharma, sought to expand enterprise application software beyond traditional ERP systems, which were basically transaction accounting and processing systems that did not consider production constraints or offer more sophisticated monitoring, decision-support and execution capabilities. We took the first step beyond ERP with the development of an advanced planning and scheduling application that took into account actual constraints to

improve the flow of materials within a factory. That solution, i2 Factory Planner, has assisted many of our customers in improving the efficiency and profitability of their factories while reducing their materials and inventory costs.

 

Supply Chain Planning/Supply Chain Management.    Our applications evolved into solutions for supply chain planning that encompassed constraint-based planning and scheduling for multiple factories, distribution centers and warehouses. With the addition of supply chain design and execution capabilities for logistics, demand planning and fulfillment, we became a leader in enterprise solutions for supply chain management.

 

Supplier Relationship Management.    We continued to expand our product base by applying our solutions for the extended supply chain to the supplier relationship processes and functions. To facilitate cost-effective sourcing and product design, we acquired and developed technologies that help customers to more efficiently source, negotiate the pricing of and procure materials and components from suppliers, thereby enabling them to make design decisions while cognizant of the effect on the supply chain of existing products and the total product portfolio.

 

Fulfillment and Revenue Management.    Our distributed order execution technology has enabled us to develop planning and execution solutions. We continue to invest in this technology, which provides a scalable and flexible toolkit for creating new solutions and helps customers to leverage transaction processing, visibility and event management capabilities. We have also invested in solutions that help customers optimize merchandising, revenue and pricing.

Product Development

 

We focus our ongoing product development efforts on meeting the requests of, and delivering on our commitments to, our current customers, enhancing our solutions and the underlying technology across our products, and developing or enhancing products that will enable us to enter new markets. In order to address customer recommendations, we have developed a User Enhancement Voting Process in collaboration with the i2 User Group. This process allows customers to provide input so that our solutions evolve to meet our customers’ business challenges and opportunities. In addition, we invest in solutions that help us more fully complete our solution offerings and enable cross-product workflows. We have continued to invest in products and technologies that we anticipate will be important and differentiated in the future, such as our Distributed Order Execution platform. Using this platform in conjunction with certain third party products, we are also developing data management and business workflow management capabilities under the umbrella of Supply Chain Operating Services (SCOS). We are also developing closed-loop solutions which would provide customers with an integrated planning and execution environment. We maintain our primary development centers in North America and India. Research and development expenses totalled $80.8 million in 2003, $173.1 million in 2002 and $288.9 million in 2001.

 

Our Solution Operations activities are primarily conducted in North America and India and are organized into Solutions Business Units (SBUs). Most SBU management, product management and product marketing employees are based in North America, but many development and services teams are based in India. The India location offers many benefits to i2, including centralization of development efforts and cost structure advantages. Our India-based Solutions Center provides services such as upgrades, implementations and development services that heavily leverage other organizations based in India. We also provide content and data services out of India.

 

Customer Service and Support

 

We maintain a technical support team that operates through our global service and support centers. Our customer service and support activities consist of the following:

 

Consulting.    We offer our customers on-site consulting services for assisting in the implementation of our products and services and integration with the customers’ existing systems. We and our customers also use third-party consulting firms.

 

Training.    We offer education and training programs for our customers and third-party implementation providers with classes offered at our offices or at customer locations. We also offer web-based and self-paced learning programs. These classes focus on the fundamental principles of our software products as well as their implementation and use.

 

Maintenance and Product Updates.    We provide ongoing support services for our product suites. Maintenance contracts are typically sold to customers at the time of the initial license and may be renewed for additional periods. Our maintenance agreements with our customers provide the right to receive most product updates and enhancements to the products purchased by the customer, as well as telephone and online support. Our support services are packaged into three tiers (silver, gold and platinum), which offer customers the ability to choose the level of service they desire.

 

Development Services.    Customers may also contract for services to provide custom development of our applications. In some cases, the modifications or additions to the software may be incorporated into future releases of our products.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

We sell our software and services through a direct customer facing organization that is augmented by other sales channels, including systems consulting and integration firms and other industry-related partners. Our direct customer facing organization consists of account representatives and client managers that are supported by a team of personnel that includes solution and industry specialists.

We currently have joint marketing agreements with software vendors and other industry-related businesses. Additionally, we have alliances with top global and regional systems consulting and integration firms, including Accenture, EDS, IBM Global Services, Tata Consulting Services and webMethods, among others. These joint marketing agreements and alliances generally provide the vendors with non-exclusive rights to market our products and access our marketing materials and product training. By using these indirect sales channels, we seek to capitalize on the installed base of other companies and obtain favorable product recommendations from the business partners, thereby increasing the market coverage of our products.

 

International Operations

 

We have international offices in Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Finland, France, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Netherlands, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Taiwan and the United Kingdom. Total assets related to our international operations accounted for 30% and 21% of our total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2003 and 2002. International revenue totalled $166.3 million, or 34% of total revenue, in 2003; $314.8 million, or 35% of total revenue, in 2002; and $336.0 million, or 38% of total revenue, in 2001. See Note 14 — Segment Information, International Operations and Customer Concentrations in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Competition

 

The markets in which we operate are highly competitive. Our competitors are diverse and offer a variety of solutions targeting various segments of the extended supply chain as well as the enterprise as a whole. Some competitors compete with suites of applications, while most offer solutions designed specifically to target particular functions or industries. We believe our principal competitors are as follows:

 

    ERP Software Vendors.    These include companies such as Oracle, SAP and PeopleSoft, which have added or are attempting to add capabilities for supply chain planning or collaboration to their transaction system products.

 

    Other Software Vendors.    These include companies such as Adexa and Manugistics, which compete principally with our production, logistics and fulfilment optimization products; companies such as Agile and Ariba, which compete principally with our supplier relationship management applications; and companies such as Trilogy and Yantra, which compete principally with our fulfillment and certain of our demand optimization products.

 

    Custom and Offshore Development.    We also compete with independent developers of enterprise application software such as Infosys, Satyam, Wipro and other entities in countries with relatively low wage structures, as well as internal development efforts by corporate information technology departments.

 

Proprietary Rights and Licenses

 

We regard our trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets, technology and other proprietary rights as critical to our business. To protect our proprietary rights, we primarily rely on a combination of copyright, patent, trademark and trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions. We license our software products in object code (machine-readable) format to customers under license agreements and we generally do not sell or otherwise transfer title of our software products to our customers. Our non-exclusive license agreements generally allow the use of our software products solely by the customer for specified purposes without the right to sublicense or transfer our software products.

 

Trademarks are important to our business as we use them in our marketing and promotional activities as well as with the delivery of our software products. Our registered trademarks include i2, RHYTHM, PLANET, TRADEMATRIX and GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT. Other trademarks of i2 include POWERING THE BOTTOM LINE.

We hold a number of U.S. patents that predominantly relate to planning, scheduling optimization, demand fulfilment, collaboration, e-commerce and data management and reporting. These patents expire at various times through 2021. We also depend on trade secrets and proprietary know-how for certain unpatented aspects of our business. To protect our proprietary information, we enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants and licensees, and generally control access to and distribution of our proprietary information. We sublicense some software that we license from third parties and incorporate in, or license in conjunction with, our products.

 

Employees

 

At December 31, 2003, we had approximately 2,452 full-time employees, including approximately 1,107 employees primarily engaged in research and development activities primarily located in India and the U.S. and approximately 300 employees primarily engaged in sales and marketing activities. Our future success depends in significant part upon the continued service of our key technical, sales and managerial personnel and our ability to attract and retain highly qualified technical, sales and managerial personnel. Except for employees represented by a Worker’s Council in Germany, none of our employees is represented by a collective bargaining agreement and we have never experienced a work stoppage. We believe employee relations are good.

ITEM 2.    PROPERTIES

 

Our corporate headquarters is located in Dallas, Texas and is held under a lease contract that expires in 2010. This facility houses our executive and primary administrative offices as well as sales, marketing, research and development and consulting personnel. We also lease space for our other offices in the U.S., Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Finland, France, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, Netherlands, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Taiwan and the United Kingdom primarily to provide sales, customer support, consulting services and research and development activities.

originally scheduled to expire in October 2011, would have required us to pay approximately $43.4 million through the lease’s original date of termination. In consideration for the early termination of the lease, we paid approximately $7.6 million in cash and issued a $6.8 million non-negotiable promissory note. The senior note bears interest at a rate of 5.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears, and matures on December 15, 2006.

 

ITEM 3.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We are subject to various claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business, including claims and legal proceedings which have been asserted against us by former employees and certain customers, and have been in negotiations to settle certain of those contingencies. In addition, a formal investigation is being conducted by the SEC and various legal actions have been commenced against us in connection with matters relating to the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements. As discussed below, we are also attempting to settle or otherwise resolve those proceedings.

 

Securities and Exchange Commission Investigation

 

On or about March 26, 2003, we were advised that the SEC had issued a formal order of investigation to determine whether there have been violations of the federal securities laws by the company and/or others involved with the company in connection with matters relating to the restatement of our consolidated financial statements. Our Board of Directors had previously directed our Audit Committee to conduct an internal investigation of certain allegations made during the fall of 2001 by a former officer relating to revenue recognition and financial reporting, among other things. In November 2002, we reported to the SEC and publicly disclosed the results of that investigation, as well as certain related allegations made during the fall of 2002 by the former officer and another former officer. Thereafter, the staff of the SEC opened an informal inquiry into these allegations and other matters relating to our financial reporting, and the SEC issued its formal order of investigation.

 

We continue to be in discussions with the SEC staff and intend to continue to fully cooperate with the SEC. We cannot predict when this investigation will be completed or its outcome. However, we may face sanctions in connection with any resolution of the SEC investigation, including but not limited to significant monetary penalties and injunctive relief.

 

Class Action Litigation

 

Beginning in March 2001, a number of purported class action complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas Division) against the company and certain of our officers and directors. The cases were consolidated, and in August 2001 plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint. The consolidated amended complaint alleges that we and certain of our officers and directors violated the federal securities laws, specifically Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, by making purportedly false and misleading statements concerning the characteristics and implementation of certain of our software products. The consolidated amended complaint seeks unspecified damages on behalf of a purported class of purchasers of our common stock during the period from May 4, 2000 to February 26, 2001. By stipulation, in December 2002, the court certified the plaintiff class.

 

Beginning in April 2003, additional purported class action complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas Division) against the company and certain of our current and former officers and directors. The complaints brought claims under the federal securities laws, specifically Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, relating to our announcement that we would re-audit certain of our consolidated financial statements and that there would be material adjustments to our financial statements. Specifically, these actions allege that we issued a series of false or misleading statements to the market during the class period that failed to disclose that (i) we had materially overstated our revenue by

 

11

Index to Financial Statements

improperly recognizing revenue on certain customer contracts, (ii) we lacked adequate internal controls and were therefore unable to ascertain our true financial condition, and (iii) as a result of the foregoing, our financial statements issued during the class period were materially false and misleading. Plaintiffs contend that such statements caused our stock price to be artificially inflated. The complaints seek unspecified damages on behalf of a purported class of purchasers of our common stock during the period from April 18, 2000 to January 24, 2003.

 

In July 2003, all of these class action complaints were consolidated for purposes of pre-trial matters only. Although we have vigorously defended against these lawsuits, we have recently entered negotiations to settle the actions.

 

Derivative Litigation

 

In April 2001, a purported shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in Dallas County, Texas, against certain of our officers and directors, naming the company as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleged that certain of our officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties to the company and our stockholders by (i) selling shares of our common stock while in possession of material adverse non-public information regarding our business and prospects, and (ii) disseminating inaccurate information regarding our business and prospects to the market and/or failing to correct such inaccurate information. This lawsuit was removed to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas Division). A motion to dismiss the action was filed, and on October 8, 2002, the motion was granted. Plaintiffs filed an appeal of that decision on October 15, 2002 and, following oral arguments, plaintiffs moved for voluntary dismissal of their appeal. On January 5, 2004, the appellate court granted plaintiffs’ voluntary dismissal motion and judgment against the plaintiffs became final.

 

In April and May 2003, two additional purported shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas Division) against certain of our officers and directors, naming the company as a nominal defendant. The complaints alleged that certain of our officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties to the company and our stockholders by (i) causing us to improperly recognize revenue in violation of generally accepted accounting principles to artificially inflate our stock price in order to complete acquisitions in which our stock was used as consideration, (ii) selling shares of our common stock while in possession of material adverse non-public information regarding our financial statements and (iii) securing personal loans using our allegedly artificially inflated stock price. In July 2003, these lawsuits were consolidated for all purposes. Plaintiffs amended their consolidated complaint to add a claim that our Chief Executive Officer and our former Chief Financial Officer violated Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, seeking recovery from them of bonuses, equity-based compensation and profits realized from sales of securities of the company. A motion to dismiss the actions was filed, and on January 26, 2004, the motion was granted and judgment was entered against the plaintiffs. An appeal of that decision was filed on February 24, 2004.

 

In May 2003, another purported shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas Division) against our Chief Executive Officer, our former Chief Financial Officer and our directors, naming the company as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleges that our Chief Executive Officer and our former Chief Financial Officer violated Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and seeks recovery from them of bonuses, equity-based compensation and profits realized from sales of securities of the company. The lawsuit also names our directors for failing to seek recovery of the aforementioned bonuses, equity-based compensation and trading profits. A motion to dismiss was filed, and on February 26, 2004, the motion was granted and judgment was entered against the plaintiffs. The deadline by which the plaintiffs must file a notice of appeal is March 29, 2004.

 

As stated, these lawsuits are or were derivative in nature; they do not and did not seek relief from the company. However, we have entered into indemnification agreements in the ordinary course of business with certain of the defendant officers and directors, and have advanced payment of legal fees and costs incurred by the

 

12


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

defendants pursuant to our obligations under the indemnification agreements and/or applicable Delaware law. In addition, we may be obligated to continue to advance payment of legal fees and costs incurred by the individual defendants in the remaining lawsuits throughout the pendency of those actions. Although we have vigorously defended against these lawsuits we have recently entered into negotiations to settle these actions.

 

Certain Accruals

 

We have accrued for estimated losses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for those matters where we believe the likelihood of an adverse outcome is probable and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable.

 

Although we do not believe it is possible at this time to estimate the amount of monetary penalties we may face in connection with any resolution of the SEC investigation, based on the stage of the class action and derivative litigation and the status of our settlement negotiations with the plaintiffs we have determined to establish an accrual of $42.0 million in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for estimated losses relating to a possible settlement of the class action and derivative litigation. The accrual represents our estimate of the amount, in excess of expected payments from our insurance carriers, that will be required to be paid by us if a settlement of the lawsuits is achieved. We anticipate that we will obtain proceeds of approximately half of the accrued amount from the sale of common stock to certain of the individual defendants in the lawsuits in connection with any settlement of that litigation.

 

Negotiations to reach a final and definitive settlement of the class action and derivative lawsuits are continuing. There can be no assurance that these negotiations will result in a settlement of the lawsuits. Any settlement would be subject to numerous conditions, including the execution of a settlement agreement and court approval. If achieved, any settlement will involve significant cash payments from i2. Such cash payments could be more than the amount currently estimated and accrued for in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

The adverse resolution of any one or more of the matters described in this Item 3 over and above the amount, if any, that has been estimated and accrued in the accompanying consolidated financial statements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. See Note 8 — Commitments and Contingencies in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

ITEM 4.    SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

 

On December 22, 2003, we held an annual meeting of our stockholders to re-elect Sanjiv S. Sidhu and Robert L. Crandall, our Class III directors, to our board. Mr. Sidhu was elected with 355,491,278 shares voting for his election, 14,807,271 shares withholding their vote and no shares abstaining or broker non-votes. Mr. Crandall was elected with 367,697,406 shares voting for his election, 2,601,243 shares withholding their vote and no shares abstaining or broker non-votes.

 

The term of office of Harvey B. Cash and Michael H. Jordan, our Class II and Class I directors, respectively, continued after the stockholders’ meeting held on December 22, 2003. However, as we announced on December 29, 2003, Mr. Jordan subsequently resigned from our board. We are currently seeking additional members for our board.

ITEM 5.    MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

 

Our common stock previously traded on The NASDAQ National Market under the symbol “ITWO.” On May 9, 2003, our common stock was delisted from The NASDAQ National Market. As support for its decision to delist our stock, a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel cited our failure to timely file our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. Since May 9, 2003, our common stock has been quoted in the over-the-counter Pink Sheets under the OTC symbol “ITWO.” See Note 9 — Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) and Loss Per Common Share in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

The following table lists the high and low per share intra-day sales prices for our common stock as reported by the NASDAQ National Market or as quoted in the over-the-counter Pink Sheets, as applicable, for the periods indicated.

As of March 2, 2004, there were 434,543,015 shares of our common stock outstanding held by 1,445 holders of record.

 

Dividends

 

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain any earnings for use in our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Future dividends, if any, will be determined by our board of directors.

 

Stock Option Plans

 

In October 2001, we announced a voluntary “cash compensation for stock options” program whereby employees were given the opportunity to elect, by November 15, 2001, to receive a reduction in base salary for a twelve-month period starting on November 16, 2001 in exchange for stock options. The options were granted on November 16, 2001 and on December 21, 2001. The options were to vest in 24 equal monthly increments from the grant date. No compensation charge related to this program was required. In July 2002, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the acceleration of the vesting of options granted under this program. Effective July 23, 2002, all unvested options issued under this program were immediately vested. No compensation charge was recorded in connection with the acceleration of vesting because the market value of our stock on the modification date was less than the exercise price of the modified options.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2002, we issued an aggregate of 59,000 shares of our common stock to employees pursuant to exercises of stock options that were granted prior to April 26, 1996 with exercise prices ranging from $0.0675 to $1.09 per share. These issuances were deemed exempt from registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance upon Rule 701 thereunder, and appropriate legends were affixed to the share certificates issued in each such transaction.

Stock Rights Plan

 

On January 17, 2002, our Board of Directors approved adoption of a stockholder rights plan and declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of common stock. Stockholders of record on January 28, 2002 received, for each share of common stock then owned, one right to purchase a unit of one one-thousandth of a share of Series A junior participating preferred stock at a price of $75.00 per unit. The rights, which expire on January 17, 2012, will only become exercisable upon distribution. Distribution of the rights will not occur until ten days after the earlier of (i) the public announcement that a person or group has acquired beneficial ownership of 15.0% or more of our outstanding common stock or (ii) the commencement of, or announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person or group acquiring the beneficial ownership of 15.0% or more of our outstanding common stock.

 

Shares of Series A preferred stock purchasable upon exercise of the rights are not redeemable. Each share of Series A preferred stock will be entitled to a dividend of 1,000 times the dividend declared per share of common stock. In the event of liquidation, each share of Series A preferred stock will be entitled to a payment of the greater of (i) 1,000 times the payment made per share of common stock or (ii) $1,000. Each share of Series A preferred stock will have 1,000 votes, voting together with the common stock. Finally, in the event of any merger, consolidation or other transaction in which shares of common stock are exchanged, each share of Series A preferred stock will be entitled to receive 1,000 times the amount received per share of common stock. Because of the nature of the dividend, liquidation and voting rights, the value of each unit of Series A preferred stock purchasable upon exercise of each right should approximate the value of one share of common stock.

 

If, after the rights become exercisable, we are acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction, or 50% or more of our consolidated assets or earning power are sold, proper provision will be made so that each holder of a right will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise that number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company having market value of two times the exercise price of the right.

 

If any person or group becomes the beneficial owner of 15.0% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock, proper provision will be made so that each holder of a right, other than rights beneficially owned by the acquiring person (which will thereafter be void), will have the right to receive upon exercise that number of shares of common stock or units of Series A preferred stock (or cash, other securities or property) having a market value of two times the exercise price of the right.

Index to Financial Statements

The rights have significant anti-takeover effects by causing substantial dilution to a person or group that attempts to acquire us on terms not approved by our Board of Directors. The rights should not interfere with any merger or other business combination approved by the Board of Directors since the rights may be redeemed by us at the redemption price of $0.01 per unit prior to the occurrence of a distribution date. Additional details of this stock rights plan are presented in Note 9 — Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) and Loss Per Common Share in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Convertible Debt

 

As of December 31, 2003, we had $356.8 million of outstanding debt, the majority of which is convertible into shares of our common stock. Details of this debt are presented in Note 7 — Borrowings and Debt Issuance Costs in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report. As of December 31, 2003, none of the notes had been converted to common stock.

(1)   As previously reported, subsequent to the issuance of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and June 30, 2003, we determined that certain expenses required reclassification. Approximately $4.8 million of the amount originally reported as “sales and marketing expense” for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and approximately $5.7 million of the amount originally reported as “cost of services and maintenance revenues” for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were reclassified as “research and development expense” for the respective periods. These reclassifications are reflected in this table, and had no effect on the revenue, operating income, net income, total assets, liabilities, equity or cash flow we originally reported for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2003.

ITEM 7.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements other than statements of historical or current facts, including, without limitation, statements about our business strategy, plans, objectives and future prospects, are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from these expectations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and thereby cause our stock price to decline. Such risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, the following:

 

    We are currently experiencing substantial negative cash flows and we may not achieve a return to positive cash flow. Our continued inability to stabilize or grow revenues, control expenses and achieve positive cash flows could impair our ability to support our operations, adversely affect our liquidity and, eventually, threaten our solvency and our ability to repay debts when they come due.

 

    We may not benefit from increased demand in the market for information technology and the improving macroeconomic environment if we are unable to capture a share of an enlarged market, which would negatively impact our revenues and stock price.

 

    Our financial results have varied and may continue to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and we may again fail to meet expectations, which might negatively impact the price of our stock.

 

    We face risks related to the SEC investigation and the class action and derivative litigation that have had and could continue to have a material adverse effect on our customer relationships and our business, financial condition and results of operations. We have established an accrual of $42.0 million for estimated losses relating to a possible settlement of the class action and derivative litigation. Any resolution of the SEC investigation or settlement of the class action and derivative litigation will likely involve significant cash payments from the company, which could further impair our liquidity. In addition, we may face additional litigation in the future that could also harm our business and impair our liquidity.

 

    We anticipate that we will obtain proceeds equal to approximately half of the $42.0 million accrual we have recorded with respect to the class action and derivative litigation from the sale of common stock to certain of the individual defendants in those lawsuits in connection with any settlement of that litigation. We also intend to seek additional private or public debt or equity financing, which could have a dilutive effect on the holdings of existing stockholders. Such additional financing may only be available on disadvantageous terms, or may not be available at all, circumstances that could threaten our solvency and our ability to repay our debts when they come due.

 

    We have been and continue to be subject to certain claims pertaining to the quality of our products and services, and questions regarding our financial viability. These claims and perceptions, if unresolved or not addressed, could seriously harm our business and our stock price.

 

    Additional restructuring initiatives may be required, and such activities could pose significant risks to our business.

 

    We may not be competitive.

 

    Further loss of key employees, including customer-facing employees, may negatively affect our operating results and revenues.

 

    Other risks indicated below under the section captioned “Factors that May Affect Future Results” and in our other filings with the SEC.

 

Many of these risks and uncertainties are beyond our control and, in many cases, we cannot accurately predict the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the

forward-looking statements. When used in this document, the words “believes,” “plans,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “continue,” “may,” “will,” “should” or the negative of such terms and similar expressions as they relate to us, our customers or our management are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

We are a provider of enterprise supply chain management solutions, including various supply chain software and service offerings. We operate our business in one business segment. Supply chain management is the set of processes, technology and expertise involved in managing supply, demand and fulfillment throughout divisions within a company and with its customers, suppliers and partners. The goals of our solutions include increasing supply chain efficiency and enhancing customer and supplier relationships by managing variability, reducing complexity, improving operational visibility, increasing operating velocity and integrating planning and execution. Our offerings help customers maximize efficiency in relation to sourcing, supply, demand, fulfillment and logistics performance. Our application software is often licensed in conjunction with other offerings including content and services we provide such as business optimization and technical consulting, training, solution maintenance, content management, software upgrades and development.

 

Application of Critical Accounting Policies And Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and judgments related to the application of certain accounting policies.

 

While we base our estimates on historical experience, current information and other factors deemed to be relevant, actual results could differ from those estimates. We consider accounting estimates to be critical to our reported financial results if (i) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that are uncertain and (ii) different estimates that we reasonably could have used for the accounting estimate in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, would have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

We consider our policies for revenue recognition to be critical due to the continuously evolving standards and industry practice related to revenue recognition, changes to which could materially impact the way we report revenues. Accounting polices related to: allowance for doubtful accounts; deferred taxes; goodwill and intangible assets; loss contingencies; and restructuring charges are also considered to be critical as these policies involve considerable subjective judgment and estimation by management. Critical accounting policies, and our procedures related to these policies, are described in detail below. Also see Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Revenue Recognition.    We derive revenues from licenses of our software and related services, which include assistance in implementation, integration, customization, maintenance, training and consulting. We recognize revenue for software and related services in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 81-1, “Accounting for Certain Construction Type and Certain Production Type Contracts,” SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as modified by SOP 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions,” and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 101, “Revenue Recognition.”

 

Software License Revenue.    Under SOP 97-2, software license revenues are generally recognized upon delivery, provided persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, fees are fixed or determinable and collection is deemed probable. We evaluate each of these criteria as follows:

 

    Evidence of an arrangement:    We consider a non-cancelable agreement signed by us and the customer to be evidence of an arrangement.

 

21


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
    Delivery:    Delivery is considered to occur when media containing the licensed programs is provided to a common carrier or, in the case of electronic delivery, the customer is given access to the licensed programs. Our typical end user license agreement does not include customer acceptance provisions.

 

    Fixed or determinable fee:    We consider the fee to be fixed or determinable if the fee is not subject to refund or adjustment and the payment terms are within our normal established practices. If the fee is not fixed or determinable, we recognize the revenue as amounts become due and payable.

 

    Collection is deemed probable:    We conduct a credit review for all significant transactions at the time of the arrangement to determine the credit-worthiness of the customer. Collection is deemed probable if we expect that the customer will pay amounts under the arrangement as payments become due. If we determine that collection is not probable, we defer the revenue and recognize the revenue upon receipt of cash.

 

Revenue for license arrangements that include one or more additional elements (i.e., services and maintenance) to be delivered at a future date is generally recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered element(s) is deferred, and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as license revenue. If fair values have not been established for the undelivered element(s), all revenue associated with the arrangement is deferred until all element(s) have been delivered or the fair value of undelivered elements has been determined. Fair value for an individual element within an arrangement may be established when that element, when contracted for separately, is priced in a consistent manner. Fair value for our maintenance and consulting services has been established as a result of our consistent maintenance renewal rates and consultant billing rates, respectively. Arrangements that include a right to unspecified future products are accounted for as subscriptions and recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement. License fees from reseller arrangements are generally based on the sublicenses granted by the reseller and recognized when the license is sold to the end customer. Licenses to our content databases are recognized over the term of the content database license and are classified as license revenue.

 

Development Services.    Development services projects include our license of software products and our agreement with customers to provide services to customize or enhance the software in accordance with specific customer requirements. Under these circumstances, our services are essential to provide the required functionality, and we therefore recognize revenue from these arrangements in accordance with SOP 81-1 using either the percentage-of-completion method or the completed contract method. The percentage-of-completion method is used when the required services are quantifiable, based on the estimated number of labor hours necessary to complete the project, and under that method revenues are recognized using labor hours incurred as the measure of progress towards completion but is limited to revenue that has been earned by the attainment of any milestones included in the contract. The completed contract method is used when the required services are not quantifiable, and under that method revenues are recognized only when we have satisfied all of our product and/or service delivery obligations to the customer.

 

Contract Revenue.    Contract revenue consists of fees generated from license, services and maintenance revenue attributable to those transactions for which we determined to change the accounting from revenue recognition under SOP 97-2 to contract accounting under SOP 81-1 in connection with the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements. See “Business — 2003 Developments”. Under SOP 81-1, when it is necessary for us to perform services that are essential to the functionality of our product so that the software performs in accordance with customer requirements we recognize such revenue using either the percentage-of-completion method or the completed contract method as described above.

 

Services Revenue.    Services revenue is primarily derived from fees for implementation, integration, consulting and training services and is generally recognized when services are performed. Contractual terms may include the following payment arrangements: fixed fee, full-time equivalent, milestone, and time and material. Services revenue also includes reimbursements received from customers for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with providing services.

Maintenance Revenue.    Maintenance revenue consists of fees generated by providing software maintenance, upgrades and support to customers, such as telephone support and new releases of software and updated user documentation. A customer typically prepays maintenance and support fees for an initial period, and the related revenue is deferred and generally recognized over the term of such initial period. Maintenance is renewable by the customer on an annual basis thereafter. Rates for maintenance, including subsequent renewal rates, are typically established based upon a specified percentage of net license fees as set forth in the contract.

 

Concurrent Transactions.    We occasionally enter into transactions which are concluded at or about the same time as other arrangements with the same customer. These concurrent transactions are accounted for under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions, as interpreted by EITF 01-02 Interpretations of APB Opinion No. 29. Generally, the recognition of a gain or loss on the exchange is measured based on the fair value of the assets involved to the extent that the fair value can be reasonably determined. A transaction that is not a culmination of the earnings process is based on the net book value of the asset relinquished.

 

Warranty.    We generally warrant that our products will function substantially in accordance with documentation provided to customers. We accrue for warranty claims on a case-by-case basis; however, due to the unique nature of each claim and lack of a settlement history, estimating the necessary accrual involves an element of uncertainty.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.    The allowance for doubtful accounts is a reserve established through a provision for bad debts charged to expense and represents our best estimate of probable losses resulting from non-payment of amounts recorded in the existing accounts receivable portfolio. In estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider our historical write-off experience, accounts receivable aging reports, the credit-worthiness of individual customers, economic conditions affecting specific customer industries and general economic conditions, among other factors. Should any of these factors change, our estimate of probable losses due to bad debts could also change, which could affect the level of our future provisions for bad debts. See Note 4 — Allowance for Doubtful Accounts in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Deferred Taxes.    Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent estimated future tax amounts attributable to the differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and their respective tax bases. These estimates are computed using the tax rates in effect for the applicable period. Realization of our deferred tax assets is, for the most part, dependent upon our U.S. consolidated tax group of companies having sufficient federal taxable income in future years to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards before they expire. Because we did not believe we would earn sufficient taxable income to utilize all of the deferred tax assets, during the second quarter of 2002, we recorded a valuation allowance for all of our remaining deferred tax assets. This resulted in a $887.3 million charge to income tax expense. We adjust our deferred tax valuation allowance in light of certain factors, including our financial performance. Despite the valuation allowance, these deferred tax assets and the future tax-deductible benefits related to these deferred tax assets will remain available to offset future taxable income over the remaining useful lives of the underlying deferred tax assets. See Note 13 — Income Taxes in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Goodwill.    On January 1, 2002, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 142 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” we ceased amortizing goodwill and adopted a new policy for measuring goodwill for impairment. While no goodwill impairment was recorded in conjunction with the adoption of the new accounting standard, we previously recorded an impairment charge of approximately $4.2 billion of goodwill in the third quarter of 2001 prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 142. Under our new policy, we will test for impairment once annually, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that may indicate that the fair value of our reporting unit is below its carrying value. Goodwill is tested for impairment using a two-step approach. The first step is to compare the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered impaired and the second step is not required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its

 

23


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

carrying amount, the second step of the impairment test measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any. The second step of the impairment test is to compare the implied fair value of goodwill to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is calculated in the same manner that goodwill is calculated in a business combination, whereby the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price. The excess “purchase price” over the amounts assigned to assets and liabilities would be the implied fair value of goodwill.

 

As stated above, we currently operate as a single reporting unit and all of our goodwill is associated with the entire company. Accordingly, we generally assume that the minimum fair value of our single reporting unit is our market capitalization, which is the product of (i) the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding and (ii) the market price of our common stock.

 

Loss Contingencies.    There are times when non-recurring events occur that require management to consider whether an accrual for a loss contingency is appropriate. Accruals for loss contingencies typically relate to certain legal proceedings, warranty and other claims and litigation. As required by SFAS No. 5, we determine whether an accrual for a loss contingency is appropriate by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. We analyze our legal proceedings, warranty and other claims and litigation based on available information to assess potential liability. We develop our views on estimated losses in consultation with outside counsel handling our defense in these matters, which involves an analysis of potential results assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. The adverse resolution of any one or more of these matters over and above the amounts that have been estimated and accrued in the current consolidated financial statements could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Restructuring Charges.    We recognize restructuring charges consistent with applicable accounting standards. We reduce charges for obligations on leased properties with estimated sublease income. Furthermore, we analyze current market conditions, including current lease rates in the respective geographic regions, vacancy rates and costs associated with subleasing, when evaluating the reasonableness of future sublease income. The accrual for office closure and consolidation is an estimate that assumes certain facilities will be subleased or the underlying leases will otherwise be favorably terminated prior to the contracted lease expiration date. Significant subjective judgment and estimates must be made and used in calculating future sublease income. While the current accrual represents our best estimate of our expected costs to exit these obligations, variances between our expected and actual sublease income may result in significant restructuring charge adjustments in future periods.

Total revenues decreased $413.4 million, or 46%, in 2003 and increased $33.0 million, or 4%, in 2002. Details of our revenues are presented below.

 

Software Licenses.    Software license revenue includes amounts related to software product sales, content subscriptions and other revenues classified as license revenue. Software license revenue decreased $23.2 million, or 26%, in 2003 and decreased $107.8 million, or 55%, in 2002.

 

Revenue from software product sales decreased $17.9 million and $97.6 million, or 40% and 68%, during 2003 and 2002, respectively. The decrease in revenue from software products sales during 2002 was related to a decline in sales arising from a weaker macroeconomic environment, softening demand for enterprise application software, sales and other deal execution problems, reduction in sales and marketing capacity and increased competition. We also experienced customer dissatisfaction that negatively altered our reputation in the market and contributed to the decline in our revenue from software product sales. These factors continued to adversely affect the sales of our software products into 2003.

 

The poor economic conditions in 2002 and the beginning of 2003, among other factors, caused a significant decrease in technology and capital spending, and extended the decision cycles of many potential customers. We were particularly affected because we have historically derived a large percentage of our revenue from the high-tech industry, which was more significantly impacted by the poor economic conditions. Based on our recent financial performance, negative cash flow, the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements and the related SEC investigation and securities class action lawsuits and the de-listing of our common stock from The NASDAQ National Market, our customers and prospects have also voiced concerns about our continued financial viability which has contributed to our revenue decline. Despite our efforts to generate demand and develop growth, our success has been limited and our results and outlook have deteriorated and there can be no assurance that our business will stabilize or that we will be able to develop revenue growth from software product sales.

 

Revenue from content subscriptions and other revenue classified as software license revenue decreased $5.3 million, or 12% and $10.2 million, or 19%, during 2003 and 2002, respectively. The decline in revenue is primarily attributable to a decline in the market for content and content services and increased competition in the market, which has resulted in downward price pressure and a decline in content subscription renewals.

 

Our account teams, led by sales representatives and consulting managers, are responsible for most of our software license and development services revenue. Although we believe direct sales will continue to account for most of our software license and development services revenue for the foreseeable future, we plan to continue developing indirect sales through, or in conjunction with, sales alliances, distributors, resellers and other indirect channels. There can be no assurance that our efforts to further expand indirect sales of our software products and content subscriptions will be successful or will continue in the future.

 

Development Services.    Development services projects include our license of software products and our agreement with customers to provide services to customize or enhance the software in accordance with specific customer requirements. Under these circumstances, our services are essential to provide the required functionality, and we therefore recognize revenue in accordance with SOP 81-1 using either the percentage-of-completion method or the completed contract method. Revenue from development services projects increased $13.6 million, or 104%, and $9.5 million, or 262%, during 2003 and 2002, respectively. The increase in revenue from development services is a result of an increase in demand for customization of our software. We expect revenue growth from development services to moderate during 2004.

 

Contract.    Contract revenue consists of fees generated from license, services and maintenance revenue from those transactions for which we determined to change the accounting from revenue recognition under SOP 97-2 to contract accounting under SOP 81-1 in connection with the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements. Contract revenues decreased $388.1 million, or 75%, during 2003 and

 

25

Index to Financial Statements

increased $213.7 million, or 71%, during 2002. The increase in contract revenue in 2002 is a result of the recognition of deferred revenue with respect to contracts entered into in prior periods. Particularly, in the third quarter of 2002, we released new product versions that resulted in the recognition of revenue for contracts being accounted for on a completed contract basis. The decrease in contract revenue during 2003 is a result of the lower level of deferred contract revenue remaining to be recognized and fewer events, which would allow the recognition of these revenues. In the future, we continue to expect significantly reduced contract revenue due to the fact that the revenue deferred from prior periods has substantially decreased. As of December 31, 2003, the deferred contract revenue balance was $124.6 million. We can provide no assurance as to whether or when we will be able to recognize such revenue.

 

Services.    Services revenue consists of fees generated by providing services to customers, including consulting and training. Services revenue decreased $5.9 million, or 4%, in 2003 and $62.7 million, or 32%, in 2002. The decrease in services revenue during both 2003 and 2002 was primarily due to the lower volume of license sales, which led to fewer implementations, and competitive rate pressures on consulting engagements.

 

During 2003, we continued to see downward trends in consulting rates due in part to pressure from offshore competition and the reduced information technology spending of our customers. Additionally, the increased use of our consultants in India has caused our global blended consulting rates to decrease during 2003. There can be no assurance that the demand for consulting and implementation services rates that we charge for our services will improve, or even remain at current levels. The market for information technology consulting services is challenging and we are affected by these market conditions. Accordingly, we expect services revenue to continue to decline unless and until we experience a sustained increase in our software product licenses. We also expect that services revenue will continue to fluctuate on a quarter-to-quarter basis, as revenue from the implementation of software is not generally recognized in the same period as the related license revenue. In any period, services revenue is dependent on a variety of factors, including:

 

    the volume of license transactions closed during the current and preceding periods;

 

    customer decisions regarding implementations of licensed software, including utilization of internal resources or third-party systems integration firms;

 

    the number of our internal service providers and consultants actively engaged on billable projects;

 

    the timing of milestone acceptance for engagements contractually requiring customer sign-off; and

 

    the timing of cash payments when collectibility is uncertain.

 

Reimbursable Expenses.    In 2002, we adopted Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 01-14, “Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for “Out-of-Pocket” Expenses Incurred.” For comparison purposes, service revenues and costs for 2001 in this report have been reclassified to include our expenses that are reimbursed by our customers. These costs will generally fluctuate in direct relation to our services revenues. The decrease in reimbursable expenses during 2003 and 2002 is consistent with the decrease in our services revenues during those periods.

 

Maintenance.    Maintenance revenue consists of fees generated by providing software maintenance, upgrades and support to customers, such as telephone support and new releases of software and updated user documentation. Maintenance revenue decreased $8.6 million, or 6%, in 2003 and decreased $7.2 million, or 5%, in 2002. The decrease in maintenance revenue during 2003 and 2002 resulted from a decline in both the number and dollar amount of maintenance renewals mainly due to cost cutting efforts by our customers, less favorable renewal terms, lower volumes of software license and development services sales and the fact that certain customers to whom we previously sold software are no longer operating, solvent or using our software. There can be no assurance that the number of maintenance renewals will improve, or even remain at current levels. We expect maintenance revenue to continue to decline unless and until we experience a sustained increase in the licensing of our software.

International Revenue.    Our international revenues, included in the categories discussed above, are primarily generated from customers located in Europe, Asia and Canada. International revenue totalled $166.3 million, or 34% of total revenue, in 2003; $314.8 million, or 35% of total revenue, in 2002; and $336.0 million, or 38% of total revenue, in 2001. The decrease in international revenue during 2003 was the result of declining demand for our enterprise application software, uncertainties related to our financial condition and the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements, reductions in customer-facing employees, sales execution issues and increased competition, among other factors.

 

Customer Concentration.    No individual customer accounted for more than 10% of annual revenues in 2003. Siemens AG accounted for 10.5% of revenues in 2002. During 2003 we have seen an increase in the percentage of total revenues related to existing customers versus new customers.

Cost of Software Licenses.    Cost of software licenses consists of:

 

    Commissions paid to non-customer third parties in connection with joint marketing and other related agreements. Such commissions are expensed when the associated revenue transactions are recognized.

 

    Royalty fees associated with third-party software utilized with our technology. Such royalties are generally expensed when the products are shipped; however, royalties associated with fixed cost arrangements are generally expensed over the period of the arrangement.

 

    Costs related to user documentation.

 

    Costs related to reproduction and delivery of software.

 

    Provisions to our reserve for estimated costs to service customer claims. We accrue for customer claims on a case-by-case basis.

 

Cost of software licenses increased $3.7 million, or 124%, in 2003 and decreased $24.3 million, or 89%, in 2002. During 2002, we reversed accruals of approximately $16.0 million related to commissions payable to third parties as these third parties did not achieve certain performance levels which would have entitled them to the commission and the reversal of customer claim accruals that were no longer necessary. Excluding the effects of these reversals in 2002, we experienced a decrease in costs of software licenses during 2002 and 2003 consistent with the decrease in related license sales in the comparable periods. We expect the gross margin on software licenses to remain consistent over the near term.

 

Cost of Development Services.    The cost of development services includes the salary and other related costs of the employees or third parties that provide our services to customize or enhance the software for the customer.

 

27


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

Cost of development services increased 126% and 779% during 2003 and 2002, respectively. The increase in cost of development services is directly related to the increase in development services revenues. The gross margin on this business will vary as result of the timing of revenue recognition, which is impacted by the attainment of contractual milestones. During 2003, the gross margin on this business decreased as a result of the timing of revenue recognition, our intention to perform development services projects at a lower margin to offset the cost of our product development and pressures on the rates for our services. Specifically, during 2003 we incurred significant losses on one contract due to delays in achieving milestones. The company and the customer are in discussions regarding the contract and the future of the project.

 

Cost of Contract.    Cost of contract includes costs associated with license, services and maintenance revenue from those transactions for which we determined to change the accounting from revenue recognition under SOP 97-2 to contract accounting under SOP 81-1 in connection with the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements. Cost of contract decreased $135.7 million, or 92%, in 2003. Cost of contract increased $72.3 million, or 96%, in 2002. Because contract expenses are recorded when the corresponding revenue is recognized, we expect cost of contract to vary significantly. As of December 31, 2003, we have $7.0 million remaining in deferred contract costs.

 

Amortization of Acquired Technology.    In connection with our acquisitions in 2001 and 2000, we acquired developed technology that we offer as a part of our solutions. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the amortization of acquired technology is included as a part of our cost of revenues because it relates to software products that are marketed to potential customers. Amortization of acquired technology decreased $14.6 million, or 96%, in 2003 as this asset became fully amortized during 2003.

 

Amortization of acquired technology decreased $28.7 million, or 65%, during 2002 primarily due to a $21.3 million write-down of certain impaired developed technology intangible assets in the third quarter of 2001. In the third quarter of 2002, we also recognized an additional $18.4 million write-down of developed technology intangible assets that were determined to be further impaired as the result of an assessment that was performed due to indications that the carrying amounts of these assets might not be recoverable. Such indications included our continued losses and our financial projections of continuing losses for the software products related to the intangible assets. These write-downs are components of our $37.7 million and $164.3 million impairment charges reported in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations for 2002 and 2001. See Note 6 — Intangible Assets, Goodwill and Impairment Charges in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the impairment charges and future amortization expense.

 

Cost of Services and Maintenance.    Cost of services and maintenance includes costs associated with providing services to customers, including implementation and training, in addition to the cost of providing software maintenance to customers such as telephone support, upgrades and updated user documentation. The total cost of services and maintenance increased $18.8 million, or 16%, in 2003 and decreased $102.9 million, or 47%, in 2002. While the service and maintenance headcount decreased 21% during 2003, cost of services and maintenance increased period over period primarily because of the substantial amount of services expense recognized as cost of contract in 2002 as a result of the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements in 2003. Services and maintenance expenses would have decreased in 2003 over 2002 had we not reclassified these expenses as a result of the restatement. The decrease in 2002 was primarily due to a decrease in the average number of consultants, product support staff and training staff, as a result of restructuring activities in these areas. Services and maintenance personnel decreased 32% in 2002.

Sales and Marketing Expense.    Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of personnel costs, commissions, office facilities, travel, and promotional events such as trade shows, seminars, technical conferences, advertising and public relations programs.

 

Sales and marketing expense decreased $108.0 million, or 54%, in 2003. The decrease was primarily due to:

 

    A 15% decrease in the average number of sales and marketing personnel during 2003 primarily as a result of restructuring activities initiated in the third quarter of 2002.

 

    A decrease in sales commissions and other costs normally associated with our sales process as a result of the decline in software license sales.

 

    A decrease of approximately $19.1 million, or 79%, in marketing expenses during 2003.

 

Sales and marketing expense decreased $206.0 million, or 51%, during 2002. The decrease was primarily due to the following, among other things:

 

    Sales and marketing personnel decreased 65% in 2002, which was a function of restructuring activities within these areas.

 

    Sales commissions and other costs associated with our sales process, including travel and entertainment expenses, decreased 61% during 2002 as a result of the decline in our software license sales.

 

    Marketing expenses decreased 48% during 2002 as a result of our cost-saving initiatives.

 

    Bad debt expense decreased 236% during 2002 due to collections of amounts previously reserved, strong collection efforts and reduced sales to dot-com and other start-up businesses.

 

Research and Development Expense.    Research and development expense consists of costs related to continued software development and product enhancements to existing software. Software development costs are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at which time such costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. To date, the establishment of technological feasibility of our products and general release of such software has substantially coincided. As a result, software development costs qualifying for capitalization have been insignificant; therefore, we have not capitalized any software development costs other than those recorded in connection with our acquisitions.

 

Research and development expenses decreased $92.3 million, or 53%, in 2003. The decrease was caused by a 17% decrease in the number of our research and development personnel and the continuation of our initiative to have the majority of our development personnel located in India. As of December 31, 2003, approximately 55% of our research and development employees were located in India.

Index to Financial Statements

Research and development expenses decreased $115.8 million, or 40%, in 2002. Research and development personnel decreased 29% in 2002. During late 2001, we began our initiative to increase the proportion of our development workforce in India in order to take advantage of our previous experience and infrastructure in India and to achieve cost efficiencies associated with that country’s lower wage scale. The program was designed to reduce our overall cost structure with respect to research and development activities.

 

General and Administrative Expenses.    General and administrative expense includes the personnel and other costs of our finance, legal, accounting, human resources, information systems and executive departments. General and administrative expense increased $40.3 million, or 61.5%, in 2003. The increase in the dollar amount of general and administrative expense was primarily due to a $42.0 million accrual recorded in the fourth quarter of 2003 for estimated losses relating to a possible settlement of the class action and derivative litigation (See Item 3 — Legal Proceedings and Note 8 — Commitments and Contingencies in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) and approximately $18 million of professional services costs incurred in 2003 in connection with the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements and the investigation of our company being conducted by the SEC, partially offset by an 11% decrease in the average number of general and administrative personnel in 2003 as a result of restructuring activities commenced in 2002.

 

General and administrative expense decreased $43.1 million, or 40%, in 2002. The decrease in the dollar amount of general and administrative expense was primarily due to a decrease in the average number of personnel as a result of our restructuring activities. General and administrative personnel decreased 50% in 2002.

 

Over the near term and perhaps for much longer, and regardless of the outcome, we expect to incur significant fees and expenses relating to the investigation currently being conducted by the SEC and our ongoing litigation, including litigation relating to the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements.

 

Amortization of Intangibles and Impairment of Intangibles.    From time to time, we have sought to supplement our product offerings through technology or business acquisitions. When an acquisition of a business is accounted for using the purchase method, the amount of the purchase price is allocated to the fair value of assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed. Any excess purchase price is allocated to goodwill. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, while goodwill is only written down when it is deemed to be impaired. Details of our acquisitions are presented in Note 2 — Business Combinations in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

In accordance with SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” adopted on January 1, 2002, the amortization expense totals for 2003 and 2002 are comprised solely of amortization of intangible assets and does not include amortization of goodwill. The total for 2001 includes $63.1 million of amortization of intangible assets, including content databases, installed customer base, relationships and intellectual property, and $2.9 billion of amortization of goodwill. The decrease in amortization expense during 2003 resulted from the majority of these intangible assets becoming fully amortized during 2003. All of the intangible assets related to acquisitions in 2000, 2001 and 2002 will become fully amortized during 2004. The decrease in amortization expense during 2002 resulted from the significant impairment write-downs of certain intangible assets, including content databases, installed customer base, relationships and intellectual property, and goodwill during the third quarter of 2001. In the third quarter of 2001, the impairment was determined as a result of an assessment that was performed due to indications the carrying amounts of these assets may not be recoverable. Such indications included our continued losses and our financial projections of continuing losses for the intangible assets. The write-downs included $164.3 million of certain intangible assets (excluding developed technology intangible assets discussed above under “Amortization of Acquired Technology”) and $4.2 billion of goodwill. Additionally, as a result of the impairments, the estimated useful lives of the goodwill recognized in connection with the acquisitions of Aspect and SupplyBase were revised from 36 months to 18 months and, as a result, the goodwill related to those acquisitions was fully amortized as of December 31, 2001. We also recognized an

additional $19.3 million write-down of certain intangible assets, including content databases, installed customer base, relationships and intellectual property (excluding developed technology intangible assets discussed above under “Amortization of Acquired Technology”), which were determined to be further impaired during the third quarter of 2002 which not only impacted the fourth quarter of 2002, but also reduced amortization of intangibles in future periods. These write-downs are components of our $37.7 million and $4.4 billion impairment charges reported in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations for 2002 and 2001. See Note 6 — Intangible Assets, Goodwill and Impairment Charges, in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the impairment charges and future amortization expense.

 

Write-off of Acquired In-Process Research and Development.    Our acquisitions in 2001 included the purchase of technology that had not yet been determined to be technologically feasible and had no alternative future use in its then-current stage of development. In such instances the portion of the purchase price allocated to in-process research and development is expensed immediately upon the consummation of the acquisition. Details of in-process research and development and acquisition-related expenses are presented in Note 2 — Business Combinations in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Write-offs of acquired in-process research and development totalled $12.7 million in 2001, related to in-process research and development projects acquired in the acquisitions of RightWorks and Trade Services Corporation (“TSC”).

 

RightWorks:    As of the acquisition date of August 22, 2001, RightWorks was conducting design, development, engineering and testing activities associated with the completion of the next release of the RightWorks eBusiness Application Suite. The applications under development at the valuation date represented technologies that were targeted to (i) enhance purchase order management capability; (ii) enhance negotiation capability; (iii) enhance multi-organization architecture; (iv) provide user interface; and (v) support additional technology stacks. We completed the development of the RightWorks products in accordance with our initial plans. The products were incorporated into and made generally available with our i2 Five.Two release in the fourth quarter of 2001.

 

In connection with our acquisition of RightWorks, $8.0 million, or 18.3%, of the purchase price represented purchased in-process technology that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use. Accordingly, this amount was immediately expensed upon consummation of the acquisition. At the acquisition date, the technologies under development, primarily the next release of the RightWorks eBusiness Application Suite, were approximately 70.0% complete based on engineering man-month data and technological progress. The value was determined by estimating the costs to develop the purchased in-process technology into commercially viable products, estimating the net cash flows from such projects, and discounting the net cash flows to their present value. A discount rate of 30.0% was used, which includes a factor that considered the uncertainty surrounding the successful development of the purchased in-process technology.

 

TSC:    As of the acquisition date of March 23, 2001, TSC was conducting design, development, engineering and testing activities associated with the completion of its ec-Central and eTRA-SER development projects. These projects were intended to address issues surrounding web-based content management and web-enablement. The ec-Central project was terminated in June 2001 because a substitute technology was identified. A prototype design related to the eTRA-SER project was completed in December 2001, but additional design work was required prior to the product release. During the third quarter of 2002, we made the decision to significantly scale-back on a key component of the project. With this decision, the eTRA-SER program was essentially discontinued and there is currently no product release plan for eTRA-SER.

 

In connection with our acquisition of TSC, $4.7 million, or 5.9%, of the purchase price represented purchased in-process technology that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use. Accordingly, this amount was immediately expensed upon consummation of the acquisition. At the acquisition date, the technologies under development, including web-based content management and

 

31


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

web-enablement technologies, ranged from 22.0% to 45.0% complete based on engineering man-month data and technological progress. The value was determined by estimating the costs to develop the purchased in-process technology into commercially viable products, estimating the net cash flows from such projects, and discounting the net cash flows to their present value. A discount rate of 30.0% was used, which includes a factor that considered the uncertainty surrounding the successful development of the purchased in-process technology.

 

Restructuring Charges

 

During the second through the fourth quarters of 2001, we implemented a global restructuring plan to reduce our operating expenses with a goal of improving our financial position. The restructuring plan was initiated in response to poor economic conditions during 2001 and our poor operating results. A restructuring charge of approximately $113.3 million was recorded in 2001, which primarily consisted of severance and termination costs for the involuntarily terminated employees and office closure costs. The majority of the restructuring activity related to this restructuring occurred during 2001 with the remaining actions, including closing and consolidating identified offices, completed during 2002.

 

In July 2002, we initiated another global restructuring plan to further reduce our operating expenses. Overall expense reductions were necessary to both lower our existing cost structure and to realign and reallocate our resources in a manner commensurate with our new operating plan. The restructuring plan included the elimination of certain employee positions and the reduction of office space and related overhead expenses. A restructuring charge of approximately $111.9 million was recorded in 2002 and primarily consisted of severance and termination costs for the involuntarily terminated employees and office closure costs. The majority of the restructuring activity related to this restructuring plan occurred during 2002 with the remaining actions, including closing and consolidating identified offices, completed during 2003.

 

Our workforce reductions have impacted employees in all functions and, as with any restructuring, this poses risks to our ongoing business. The workforce reductions have impacted customer-facing employees directly responsible for sales and services, which may adversely affect our ability to close transactions with our customers and prospects. Additionally, our ability to retain and effectively manage our remaining employees may be constrained, which could potentially impact our development efforts and the quality of our products and customer service.

 

During the second quarter of 2003, we entered into a lease termination agreement with the owner of one of our headquarter buildings that we vacated in January 2003 as part of a formal restructuring plan. This lease, originally scheduled to expire in 2011, would have required us to pay approximately $43.4 million through the lease’s original date of termination. In consideration for the early termination of the lease, we paid approximately $7.6 million in cash and issued a $6.8 million non-negotiable promissory note due and payable on December 15, 2006. The note bears interest at a rate of 5.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears. Upon executing this agreement in the second quarter of 2003, the remaining restructuring accrual of $12.4 million was utilized and an additional charge of $2.0 million was recorded as a general and administrative expense.

 

During the third quarter of 2003 we made a decision to negotiate the termination of a lease for a facility in Europe that had previously been shut-down as part of our 2001 restructuring. Additionally, we reviewed our remaining accrual for all leased facilities that were affected by our 2001 and 2002 restructurings. We determined that the remaining accrual was not sufficient to cover our future estimated net cash outflows related to these obligations due to changes in our estimates of sub-lease receivables and facility overhead costs. These activities resulted in a $5.4 million increase to our restructuring accrual during the third quarter of 2003.

 

Additional details of the restructuring charges and remaining accruals are presented in Note 11 — Restructuring Charges and Adjustments in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

In response to our recent operating losses, in late March and early April 2004 we plan to further reduce our headcount-related expenses across all areas of our workforce. We also plan to reduce program and other non-

Index to Financial Statements

headcount-related expenses. The purpose of the restructuring is to decrease our operating expenses in an attempt to reduce our substantial negative cash flows. We anticipate that this restructuring will result in a reduction in total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2004 by approximately 10% as compared to the levels we reported for the fourth quarter 2003.

The decline in interest income over the comparable periods is primarily the result of the lower average balances of invested funds and lower market interest rates. The increase in interest expense during 2002 resulted from the additional $60.9 million in convertible debt issued in connection with our acquisition of TSC in the first quarter of 2001. The $60.9 million of convertible debt was prepaid in June 2003 and resulted in the recognition of a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $3.4 million and a decrease in interest expense in 2003. Net realized losses on investments during 2001 included the write-down of the carrying basis of most of our equity investments as a result of significant, other than temporary declines in the fair value and expected realizable amounts of these investments.

 

The market interest rates on investments and the relative exchange values of foreign currencies are influenced by the monetary and fiscal policies of the governments in the countries in which we operate. The nature, timing and extent of any impact on our financial statements resulting from changes in those governments’ policies are not predictable. Risks associated with market interest rates and foreign exchange rates are discussed below under the section captioned “Sensitivity to Market Risks.”

 

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes

 

We recognized income tax expense of $5.5 million in 2003, income tax expense of $889.3 million in 2002 and an income tax benefit of $237.4 million in 2001, representing effective income tax rates of 91.4% in 2003, (9,228.9)% in 2002 and 3.0% in 2001.

 

Because we did not believe we would earn sufficient taxable income to utilize all of our deferred tax assets, during the second quarter of 2002, we recorded a valuation allowance for all of our remaining deferred tax assets. This resulted in an $887.3 million charge to income tax expense. We adjust our deferred tax valuation allowance in light of certain factors, including our financial performance. Failure to achieve sustained profitability may prevent us from utilizing these assets in their entirety, and because of the uncertainty of our return to profitability, we concluded a valuation allowance for all of our remaining deferred tax assets was necessary. As of December 31, 2003, we still have a valuation allowance for all of our remaining deferred tax assets. Despite the valuation allowance, these deferred tax assets and the future tax-deductible benefits related to these deferred tax assets will remain available to offset future taxable income over the remaining useful lives of the underlying deferred tax assets.

The effective income tax rate during 2003 and 2002 differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the valuation allowance. In 2001, the effective income tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the non-deductibility of goodwill, in-process research and development and acquisition expenses. Other items affecting our effective income tax rate during the periods presented primarily include state income taxes (net of federal income tax benefits), non-deductible meals and entertainment, and research and development tax credits.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

 

As of December 31, 2003, we did not have any significant off-balance-sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Historically, we have financed our operations and met our capital expenditure requirements primarily through cash flows provided from operations, long-term borrowings and sales of equity securities. Our working capital was $10.1 million at December 31, 2003 compared to a working capital deficit of $68.2 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of $78.3 million or 115%. The improvement in working capital was primarily the result of a decrease of $45.0 million in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and accrued compensation, a decrease in deferred revenue of $106.5 million and a $60.9 million decrease in the current portion of long-term debt as a result of the early retirement of our senior convertible promissory note, which was prepaid during the second quarter. See Note 7 — Borrowings and Debt Issuance Costs in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The decrease in these current liabilities was partially offset by a net decrease of $114.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments, a decrease of $9.0 million in accounts receivable and a net decrease of $12.5 million in deferred contract costs and other current assets.

Index to Financial Statements

Notwithstanding our improved working capital position at December 31, 2003, our cash position has continued to decline. Cash and cash equivalents were $288.8 million at December 31, 2003, a decrease of $113.4 million from December 31, 2002. The decrease was the result of $99.7 million in cash used in operating activities, $50.6 million of cash used in financing activities which were partially offset by $35.8 million in cash provided by investing activities. At December 31, 2003, restricted cash totalled $15.5 million, of which $12.6 million was pledged as collateral for outstanding letters of credit, $2.2 million was pledged as bank guarantees and $0.7 million was pledged as collateral for outstanding foreign currency exchange contracts. At December 31, 2002, restricted cash totalled $12.1 million, all of which was pledged as collateral for outstanding letters of credit.

 

In addition to our cash and cash equivalents, we also maintain a portfolio of short and long-term investment securities to supplement our liquidity needs. At December 31, 2003, short-term investments totalled $5.0 million. At December 31, 2002, short and long-term investments totalled $10.0 million and $33.0 million, respectively. Short-term investments consist primarily of highly rated corporate debt securities and obligations of municipalities and agencies of the U.S. government that have remaining maturities of less than one year. Long-term investments include similar debt security investments with remaining maturities in excess of one year but not more than two years, as well as common stock and warrants of public companies.

 

On a combined basis, cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short and long-term investments totalled $309.4 million at December 31, 2003 compared to $457.2 million at December 31, 2002. Common stock and warrants of public companies investments were not significant at December 31, 2003.

 

The most significant adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash from operations during 2003 were deferred revenue of $106.1 million (which was primarily due to the recognition of contract revenue), the net decrease in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and accrued compensation of $34.0 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $24.1 million, the decrease in deferred contract costs of $7.3 million, and the decrease in accounts receivable of $12.8 million.

 

The most significant source of net cash provided by investing activities during 2003 was the $38.0 million of proceeds from the sales of investments.

 

The most significant component of cash used in financing activities during 2003 was the prepayment of our $60.9 million in convertible debt issued in connection with our acquisition of TSC. We paid $59.3 million of cash to retire the note, of which $57.5 million was for the principal of the note, $1.0 million was for accrued interest on the note through the date of prepayment and $0.8 million was for contingent consideration that became due under the Trade Service Corporation acquisition agreement. See Note 7 — Borrowings and Debt Issuance Costs in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. These cash outflows were partially offset by the issuance of a $6.8 million note in connection with early termination of a lease agreement for a facility. See Note 11 — Restructuring Charges and Adjustments in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, decreased 20% during 2003. Days sales outstanding (DSO’s) in receivables increased to 34 days as of December 31, 2003 from 25 days as of December 31, 2002. We expect that DSO’s will continue to increase in the future as we are experiencing an extension of the collection cycle with respect to our European and Asian accounts.

 

In December 1999, we issued $350.0 million of convertible subordinated notes. The notes mature on December 15, 2006 and bear interest at a rate of 5.25% per annum, which is payable semi-annually. The notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $38.00 per share at any time prior to maturity. We currently have the option to redeem, in cash, all or a portion of the notes that have not been previously converted. We may also from time to time seek to retire the notes through cash repurchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or

 

35


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. As of December 31, 2003, none of the notes have been converted to common stock, redeemed or otherwise retired.

 

During the second quarter of 2003, our $20.0 million letter of credit line expired and we established a new letter of credit line for $15.0 million with another lender. There are no financial covenants associated with the $15.0 million letter of credit line. As of December 31, 2003, $10.1 million in letters of credit were outstanding under this line and $12.6 million in restricted cash was pledged as collateral. As of December 31, 2003, we also had an additional $2.2 million in restricted cash pledged as collateral for bank guarantees and $0.7 million pledged as collateral for outstanding foreign currency exchange contracts. See Note 7 — Borrowings and Debt Issuance Costs in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

We have experienced substantial negative cash flows during the three years ended December 31, 2003 primarily due to sharp declines in our revenues and our inability to reduce our expenses to a level at or below the level of our revenues. Although we expect that our cash position will continue to decline, primarily due to cash outflows associated with operations, restructuring activities and debt service obligations, we believe that existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment balances will satisfy our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, our continued inability to stabilize or grow revenues, control expenses and achieve positive cash flows could impair our ability to support our operations, adversely affect our liquidity and, eventually, threaten our solvency and our ability to repay our debts when they come due. In addition, we have established an accrual of $42.0 million for estimated losses relating to a possible settlement of the class action and derivative litigation currently pending against us and will likely face significant cash outlays relating to any settlement of that litigation or any resolution of the SEC investigation, which would further impair our liquidity. Continuing negative cash flows and the related adverse market perception associated therewith may continue to negatively affect our ability to sell our products and may adversely affect our ability obtain debt or equity financing. Our $350 million of convertible debt, which bears interest at 5.25% per year (or approximately $18.4 million per year), payable semi-annually in June and December, matures in December 2006.

 

As a result of the foregoing, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in maintaining an adequate level of cash resources and we may be forced to act more aggressively in the area of expense reduction in order to conserve cash resources as we look for alternative solutions. We anticipate that we will obtain proceeds equal to approximately half of the $42.0 million accrual we have recorded with respect to the class action and derivative litigation from the sale of common stock to certain of the individual defendants in those lawsuits in connection with any settlement of that litigation. We also intend to seek additional private or public debt or equity financing in order to improve our liquidity. However, we may not be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing on satisfactory terms or at all, and any new financing could have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders.

 

Sensitivity to Market Risks

 

Foreign Currency Risk.    Revenues originating outside of the United States totalled 34%, 35% and 38% of total revenues in 2003, 2002 and 2001. Since we conduct business on a global basis in various foreign currencies, we are exposed to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. In January 2001, we established a foreign currency hedging program utilizing foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge various nonfunctional currency exposures. The objective of this program is to reduce the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on our results of operations. Furthermore, our goal is to offset foreign currency transaction gains and losses recorded for accounting purposes with gains and losses realized on the forward contracts. Our hedging activities cannot completely protect us from the risk of foreign currency losses as our currency exposures are constantly changing and not all of these exposures are hedged. Details of our foreign currency risk management program are presented in Note 12 — Foreign Currency Risk Management in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Interest Rate Risk.    Our investments are subject to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected due to movements in interest rates. We

 

36


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

invest our cash in a variety of interest-earning financial instruments, including bank time deposits, money market funds and taxable and tax-exempt variable-rate and fixed-rate obligations of corporations, municipalities and local, state and national governmental entities and agencies. These investments are primarily denominated in U.S. Dollars. Cash balances in foreign currencies overseas are primarily operating balances and are generally invested in short-term time deposits of the local operating bank.

 

Due to the demand nature of our money market funds and the short-term nature of our time deposits and debt securities portfolio, these assets are particularly sensitive to changes in interest rates. As of December 31, 2003, 97.6% of our debt securities and time deposits had remaining maturities of three months or less, while 2.4% had remaining maturities between three months and one year. The Federal Reserve Board influences the general direction of market interest rates. The Federal Reserve Board decreased the discount rate by 475 basis points during 2001, 50 basis points in 2002 and by 25 basis points in 2003. As of December 31, 2003, the weighted-average yield on debt securities we held was 1.12% compared to 1.64% for debt securities held as of December 31, 2002. The decrease in the weighted-average yield on these investments was a result of reinvesting maturing investments at lower market interest rates in 2003. Based on the short-term nature of our investment holdings as of December 31, 2003, the fair market value of the portfolio would not be significantly impacted by changes in market interest rates.

 

Credit Risk.    Financial assets that potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of investments and accounts receivable. Cash on deposit is held with financial institutions with high credit standings. Debt security investments are generally in highly-rated corporations and municipalities as well as agencies of the U.S. government; however, a significant portion of these investments are in corporate debt securities, which carry a higher level of risk compared to municipal and U.S. government-backed securities. Our customer base consists of large numbers of geographically diverse enterprises dispersed across many industries. As a result, concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is not significant. However, we periodically perform credit evaluations for most of our customers and maintain reserves for potential losses. In certain situations we may seek letters of credit to be issued on behalf of some customers to mitigate our exposure to credit risk. We currently use foreign exchange contracts to hedge the risk associated with receivables denominated in foreign currencies. Risk of non-performance by counterparties to such contracts is minimal due to the size and credit standings of the financial institutions involved.

 

Market Price Risk.    In addition to investments in debt securities, we maintain minority equity investments in various publicly traded companies for business and strategic purposes. Our investments in publicly traded companies are subject to market price volatility. As a result of market price volatility, we experienced an $8.2 million net after-tax unrealized loss on these investments during 2002. We also wrote-down, by $6,000 in 2003 and $2.5 million in 2002, the carrying basis of certain equity investments in publicly traded companies as a result of significant declines in the fair value of these investments during those years. The remaining carrying value of minority equity investments was zero at December 31, 2003.

 

We have also invested in several privately held companies, many of which can still be considered in the start-up or development stages or may no longer be viable or operational. As a result of significant declines in the expected realizable amounts of these investments, we wrote off all of our investments in privately held companies and recognized total losses and write offs of $68.6 million in 2001.

 

Inflation

 

Inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

Factors That May Affect Future Results

 

Any investment in our company will be subject to risks inherent to our business. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this report. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are not aware of or focused on or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. This report is qualified in its entirety by these risk factors.

 

If any of the following risks actually occur, they could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

Risks Related To Our Recent Operating Results and Recent Events

 

We Have Experienced Substantial Negative Cash Flows And May Continue to Experience Such Negative Cash Flows, Which Would Have A Further Significant Adverse Effect On Our Business And Could Threaten Our Solvency.

 

We have experienced substantial negative cash flows during the three years ended December 31, 2003, primarily due to sharp declines in our revenues and our inability to reduce our expenses to a level at or below the level of our revenues. Our continued inability to stabilize or grow revenues, control expenses and achieve positive cash flows could impair our ability to support our operations, adversely affect our liquidity and, eventually, threaten our solvency and our ability to repay our debts when they come due, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition as well as our stock price. In addition, we have established an accrual of $42.0 million for estimated losses relating to a possible settlement of the class action and derivative litigation currently pending against us and will likely face significant cash outlays relating to any settlement of that litigation or any resolution of the SEC investigation, which would further impair our liquidity. Continuing negative cash flows and the related adverse market perception associated therewith may continue to negatively affect our ability to sell our products and may adversely affect our ability to obtain debt or equity financing on satisfactory terms, if at all. Our $350 million of convertible debt, which bears interest at 5.25% per year (or approximately $18.4 million per year), payable semi-annually in June and December, matures in December 2006. There can no assurance that we will be successful in maintaining an adequate level of cash resources and we may be forced to act more aggressively in the area of expense reduction in order to conserve cash resources as we look for alternative solutions.

 

We May Not Benefit From Increased Demand In The Market For Information Technology And The Improving Macroeconomic Environment If We Are Unable To Capture A Share Of An Enlarged Market, Which Would Negatively Impact Our Revenues And The Price Of Our Stock.

 

The macroeconomic environment appears to be improving and capital spending on information technology appears to have increased; however, our license revenues have continued to decline. Although the operating results of our business are often influenced by the overall demand for computer software and services, particularly in the areas in which we compete, if we continue to fail to capitalize on improvements in demand for computer software and services our revenues will decrease in comparison to current levels and our stock price may suffer. Further, the recovery in the macroeconomic environment is still in its early stages and the geo-political situation has remained unstable, resulting in continued uncertainty. In the event that the rate of growth in the global economy slows or reverses or the geo-political situation deteriorates, customers may again defer or reconsider purchasing products, potentially resulting in a continued reduction in our software license revenues and corresponding revenues from consulting and maintenance.

 

Our Financial Results Have Varied And May Continue To Vary Significantly From Quarter To Quarter And We May Again Fail To Meet Expectations, Which Might Negatively Impact The Price Of Our Stock.

 

Our operating results have varied significantly from quarter to quarter in the past, and we expect our operating results to continue to vary from quarter to quarter in the future due to a variety of factors, many of

 

38


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

which are outside of our control. The fact that we have historically derived a significant portion of revenues in each period from a small number of relatively large transactions has contributed to the variability in our operating results period to period because our operating results for a given period could be materially and adversely affected if we fail to close or recognize one or more large transactions expected for that period. Although our revenues are subject to fluctuation, significant portions of our expenses are not variable in the short term, such as our annual debt servicing expense of $18.7 million, and we cannot reduce them quickly to respond to decreases in revenues. Therefore, if revenues are below expectations, this shortfall is likely to adversely and disproportionately affect our operating results. These factors have caused our operating results to be below the expectations of securities analysts and investors in the past and may do so again in the future. Our failure to meet or exceed analyst and investor expectations negatively affects the price of our common stock.

 

We Face Risks Related To An SEC Investigation And Securities Litigation That Could Have A Material Adverse Effect On Our Relationships With Customers, Business, Financial Condition And Results Of Operations. We May Face Additional Litigation In The Future That Could Also Harm Our Business.

 

The SEC has issued a formal order of investigation to determine whether there have been violations of the federal securities laws by us and/or others involved with us in connection with matters relating to the restatement of our consolidated financial statements. Although we have fully cooperated with the SEC in this matter and intend to continue to fully cooperate, we cannot predict when this investigation will be completed or its outcome. However, we may face sanctions in connection with any resolution of the SEC investigation, including but not limited to significant monetary penalties and injunctive relief.

 

In addition, we and certain of our directors and officers have been named as defendants in a number of class action and derivative lawsuits as a result of the restatement of our consolidated financial statements. We and certain of our directors and executive officers are also named as defendants in several private securities class action lawsuits relating to our alleged failure to disclose material information regarding customer implementations. Due to the volatility of the stock market and particularly the stock prices of technology companies, it is possible that we will face additional class action lawsuits in the future. The findings and outcome of the SEC investigation may affect the class action and derivative lawsuits that are pending and any future litigation that we may face.

 

We have established an accrual of $42.0 million for estimated losses relating to a possible settlement of the class action and derivative litigation currently pending against us. There can be no assurance that these actions will settle for this amount or at all. Any settlement of the class action and derivative litigation or any resolution of the SEC investigation will likely involve significant cash payments that would increase negative cash flows. If we are unable to achieve a settlement of the class action and derivative litigation, we could be liable for large damage awards that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Defending against existing and potential litigation and other proceedings relating to the restatement of our consolidated financial statements may continue to require significant attention and resources of our management. We cannot assure you that the significant time and effort spent will not adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We Have Been And Continue To Be Subject To Certain Claims Pertaining To The Quality Of Our Products And Services, And Questions Regarding Our Financial Viability. These Claims And Perceptions, If Unresolved Or Not Addressed, Could Seriously Harm Our Business And Our Stock Price.

 

From time to time, customers make claims pertaining to the quality and performance of our software and services, citing a variety of issues. Our recent operating performance, the decline in our stock price and the SEC investigation of us have led to questions in the market regarding our financial viability. Whether customer claims regarding the quality and performance of our products and services or concerns about our financial viability are

 

39


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

founded or unfounded, if such claims and perceptions are not resolved in a manner favorable to us they may affect the market perception of our company, our products and our services. Any such reputational damage could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, and could negatively affect the price of our stock.

 

Additional Restructuring Initiatives Have Been Planned, and Such Activities Could Pose Significant Risks To Our Business.

 

Additional restructuring initiatives have been planned in an effort to achieve our profitability objectives. Any such restructuring may involve, among other things, reducing our workforce and facilities and ceasing continued development of a number of products. These activities could pose significant risks to our business, including the risk that terminated employees will disparage the company, file legal claims against us related to their termination of employment, become employed by competitors or share our intellectual property or other sensitive information with others. Workforce reductions could impact employees directly responsible for sales, which could affect our ability to close revenue transactions with our customers and prospects. The failure to retain and effectively manage our remaining employees could increase our costs, adversely affect our development efforts and impact the quality of our products and customer service. If customers become dissatisfied with the results of our product decisions or service, our business could be adversely impacted, our maintenance renewals may decrease, our customers may take legal action against us and our sales to existing customers could decline, leading to reduced revenues. Failure to achieve the desired results of our strategic initiatives would harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

We Intend To Seek Private or Public Debt or Equity Financing, Which Could Have A Dilutive Effect on The Holdings Of Existing Stockholders. Such Financing May Only Be Available On Disadvantageous Terms, Or May Not Be Available At All, Circumstances Which Could Threaten Our Solvency And Our Ability To Repay Our Debts When They Come Due.

 

We expect that our cash position will continue to decline, primarily due to cash outflows associated with operations, restructuring activities and debt service obligations. Unless we are able to stabilize or grow revenues, control expenses and achieve positive cash flows, our ability to support our obligations could be impaired and our liquidity could be adversely affected. Eventually, our solvency and our ability to repay our debts when they come due could be threatened. In addition, we have established an accrual of $42.0 million for estimated losses relating to a possible settlement of the class action and derivative litigation currently pending against us and will likely face significant cash outlays relating to any settlement of that litigation or any resolution of the SEC investigation, which would further impair our liquidity. Our $350 million of convertible debt, which bears interest at 5.25% per year (or approximately $18.4 million per year), payable semi-annually in June and December, matures in December 2006.

 

We anticipate that we will obtain proceeds equal to approximately half of the $42.0 million accrual we have recorded with respect to the class action and derivative litigation from the sale of common stock to certain of the individual defendants in those lawsuits in connection with any settlement of that litigation. We also intend to seek additional private or public debt or equity financing on acceptable terms in order to improve our liquidity. However, we may not be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing on satisfactory terms or at all, and any new financing could have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders.

 

Other Risks Related To Our Business

 

If We Are Unable To Develop Acceptable Products And Generate Demand For Such Products, Additional Serious Harm Could Result To Our Business.

 

We have invested significant resources in developing and marketing our products and services. The demand for, and market acceptance of, our products and services are subject to a high level of uncertainty. Adoption of

 

40


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

software solutions, particularly by those individuals and enterprises that have historically relied upon traditional means of commerce and communication, requires a broad acceptance of substantially different methods of conducting business and exchanging information. Our products and services are often considered complex and may involve a new approach to the conduct of business by our customers. As a result, intensive marketing and sales efforts may be necessary to educate prospective customers regarding the uses and benefits of these products and services in order to generate demand. The market for our products and services may continue to weaken, competitors may develop superior products and services or we may fail to develop acceptable solutions to address new market conditions. Any one of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, the SEC investigation of our company, questions regarding our viability, our de-listing from The NASDAQ National Market and our ongoing legal proceedings may continue to adversely impact customer demand.

 

Our Software Products Are Intended To Work Within Complex Business Processes. Accordingly, Implementation Or Upgrades Of Our Products Can Be Difficult, Time-Consuming And Expensive, And Customers May Be Unable To Implement Or Upgrade Our Products Successfully Or Otherwise Achieve The Benefits Attributable To Our Products. This May Result In Customer Dissatisfaction, Harm To Our Reputation And Cause Non-Payment Issues.

 

Our products typically must integrate with the many existing computer systems and software programs of our customers. This can be complex, time-consuming and expensive, and may cause delays in the deployment of our products. As a result, some customers may have difficulty or be unable to implement our products successfully or otherwise achieve the benefits attributable to our products. Delayed or ineffective implementation or upgrades of our software and services may limit our sales opportunities, result in customer dissatisfaction and harm to our reputation, or cause non-payment issues.

 

We May Not Be Competitive, And Increased Competition Could Seriously Harm Our Business.

 

Relative to us, many of our competitors have one or more of the following advantages:

 

    Longer operating history.

 

    Greater financial, technical, marketing, sales and other resources.

 

    Positive cash flow.

 

    Profitable operations.

 

    Superior product functionality in certain areas.

 

    Greater name recognition.

 

    A broader range of products to offer.

 

    Better software performance.

 

    A larger installed base of customers.

 

Current and potential competitors have established, or may establish, cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to enhance their products, which may result in increased competition. In addition, we expect to experience increasing price competition as we compete for market share. We understand that some competitors may even be offering enterprise application software at no charge as components of product bundles. Further, traditional enterprise resource planning vendors such as SAP have focused more resources on the development and marketing of enterprise application software, particularly in the product and industry segments in which we compete. As a result of these and other factors, we may be unable to compete successfully with our existing or new competitors.

The Loss Of Certain Of Our Key Personnel And Any Future Potential Losses Of Key Personnel Or Our Failure To Attract Additional Personnel Could Seriously Harm Our Company.

 

We rely upon the continued service of a relatively small number of key technical, sales and senior management personnel. We have lost a number of key personnel as a result of our performance and our restructurings, among other reasons, and we believe our voluntary attrition rate is higher than the software industry’s average. Our workforce reductions have impacted employees directly responsible for sales, which may affect our ability to close revenue transactions with our customers and prospects. Our future success depends on retaining our key employees and our ability to retain, attract and train other highly qualified technical, sales and managerial personnel, which may be increasingly difficult given our recent financial performance and employee layoffs. Additional restructuring activity may be required in the future that may result in further voluntary and involuntary attrition and loss of key personnel. We have employment agreements with relatively few of our key technical, sales and senior management personnel. As a result, our employees could resign with little or no prior notice. Our loss of any more of our key technical, sales and senior management personnel, and the intellectual capital that they possess, or our inability to retain, attract and train additional qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Continued Decreased Levels Of Demand For Our Enterprise Products And Services Could Significantly Reduce Our Revenues.

 

Historically, we have derived a substantial portion of our revenues from licenses of our enterprise products and related services. Our enterprise products principally include solutions to address supply optimization, sourcing optimization, demand optimization, fulfillment optimization and logistics optimization. We expect license revenues and maintenance and consulting contracts related to our enterprise products to continue to account for a substantial portion of our revenues for the foreseeable future. We have experienced a sharp decrease in the demand for our enterprise products and related services due to a number of factors, including sales execution, product competitiveness and questions regarding our viability, which have led to a decline in our revenues. Other factors, such as competition and technological change as well as the SEC investigation of our company, our de-listing from The NASDAQ National Market and our ongoing legal proceedings, could also adversely impact demand for, or market acceptance of, these applications.

 

Failure To Complete Development Services Projects As Planned Could Harm Our Operating Results And Create Business Distractions And Negative Publicity That Could Harm Our Business.

 

Risks associated with our development services projects include, but are not limited to:

 

    Customers may withhold cash payments or cancel contracts if we fail to meet our delivery commitments, the customers have financial difficulties or change strategy, or the functionality delivered is not acceptable to the customers. We are particularly susceptible to this with respect to arrangements where payments are scheduled to occur later in the engagement.

 

    The cancellation or scaling back of one or more of our larger development services projects could have a material adverse impact on our total development services revenues.

 

    We may be unable to recognize revenue associated with development services projects in accordance with expectations. We generally recognize revenue from custom software development projects over time using the contract method of accounting subject to the receipt of cash. Failure to complete project phases in accordance with the overall project plan can create variability in our expected revenue streams if we are not able to recognize revenues related to particular projects because of delays in development.

 

    Many of our development services projects are fixed-price arrangements. If we fail to accurately estimate the resources required for a fixed-price project or the customer attempts to change the scope of the project, the profit, if any, realized from the project would be adversely affected to the extent that we have to add additional resources to complete the project.

Certain Of Our Customers Purchase Our Software, But Delay Or Terminate Its Implementation. If This Type Of Activity Becomes Significant, It Could Harm Our Ability To Sell To Existing Customers And Impact Our Maintenance and Services Revenues.

 

Certain of our existing customers delay or terminate implementations of our software due to budgetary constraints related to economic uncertainty, dissatisfaction with product quality, the difficulty of prioritizing a surplus of information technology projects, changes in business strategy or priorities or for other reasons. Such customers may be less likely to invest in additional software in the future and to continue to pay for software maintenance. Since our business relies to a large extent upon sales to existing customers and since maintenance and services revenues are key elements of our revenue base, any reduction in these sales or these maintenance and services payments could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Our Software May Contain Errors Which Could Result In The Loss Of Customers And Reputation, Adverse Publicity, Loss Of Revenues, Delays In Market Acceptance, Diversion of Development Resources And Claims Against Us By Customers.

 

Our software programs may contain errors or “bugs.” Although we conduct testing and quality assurance through a release management process, we may not discover bugs until our customers install and use a given product or until the volume of services that a product provides increases. On occasion, we have experienced delays in the scheduled introduction of new and enhanced products because of bugs. Errors could result in loss of customers and reputation, adverse publicity, loss of revenues, delays in market acceptance, diversion of development resources and claims against us by customers.

 

Failure or Circumvention of Our Controls and Procedures Could Seriously Harm our Business.

 

We have made significant changes in and may consider making additional changes to our internal controls, our disclosure controls and procedures, and our corporate governance policies and procedures. Any system of controls, however well designed and operated, is based in part on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure of our controls, policies and procedures could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

We May Not Be Able to Realize The Benefits Of Our Deferred Tax Assets.

 

If we do not achieve sufficient federal taxable income in future years to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards, they will expire, and we will be unable to realize the benefits of our deferred tax assets. In the second quarter of 2002, we stopped recognizing tax benefits for net operating losses for financial reporting purposes. In addition, we recorded a valuation allowance for all of our remaining deferred tax assets, which resulted in an $887.3 million charge to income tax expense.

 

We May Have Increasing Difficulty Obtaining And Maintaining Cost-Effective Insurance Which May Have A Material Adverse Effect On Our Business, Results Of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

We obtain insurance to cover a variety of potential risks and liabilities. In the current market, insurance coverage is becoming more restrictive. As a result, it may become more difficult to maintain insurance coverage at historical levels, or if such coverage is available, the cost to obtain or maintain it may increase substantially. This may result in our being forced to bear the burden of an increased portion of risks for which we have traditionally been covered by insurance, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

We May Not Be Successful In Convincing Customers To Migrate To Current Or Future Releases Of Our Products, Which May Lead To Reduced Consulting And Maintenance Revenues And Less Future Business From Existing Customers.

 

Our customers may not be willing to incur the costs or invest the resources necessary to complete upgrades to current or future releases of our products. This may lead to our loss of consulting and maintenance revenues

 

43

and future business from customers that continue to operate prior versions of our products or choose to no longer use our products.

 

If We Fail To Derive Benefits From Our Existing And Future Strategic Relationships, Our Business Will Suffer.

 

From time to time, we have collaborated with other companies in areas such as marketing, distribution or implementation. Maintaining these and other relationships is a meaningful part of our business strategy. However, some of our current and potential strategic partners are either actual or potential competitors, which may impair the viability of these relationships. In addition, some of our relationships have failed to meet expectations and may fail to meet expectations in the future. A failure by us to maintain existing strategic relationships or enter into successful new strategic relationships in the future could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Because Our Products Collect And Analyze Stored Customer Information, Concerns That Our Products Do Not Adequately Protect The Privacy Of Consumers Could Inhibit Sales Of Our Products.

 

One of the features of our supply chain management software applications is the ability to develop and maintain profiles of consumers for use by businesses. Typically, these products capture profile information when consumers, business customers and employees visit an Internet web-site and volunteer information in response to survey questions concerning their backgrounds, interests and preferences. Our products augment these profiles over time by collecting usage data. Although our supply chain management products are designed to operate with applications that protect user privacy, privacy concerns nevertheless may cause visitors to resist providing the personal data necessary to support this profiling capability. Any inability to adequately address consumers’ privacy concerns could have a material adverse affect on our business, results of operation and financial condition.

 

Serious Harm To Our Business Could Result If Our Encryption Technology Fails To Ensure The Security Of Our Customers’ Online Transactions.

 

The secure exchange of confidential information over public networks is a significant concern of consumers engaging in on-line transactions and interaction. Some of our software applications use encryption technology to provide the security necessary to effect the secure exchange of valuable and confidential information. Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other events or developments could result in a compromise or breach of the algorithms that these applications use to protect customer transaction data. If any compromise or breach were to occur, it could have a material adverse affect on our business, results of operation and financial condition.

 

We May Not Successfully Integrate The Products, Technologies Or Businesses From, Or Realize The Intended Benefits Of, Acquisitions, And We May Make Future Acquisitions Or Enter Into Joint Ventures That Are Not Successful, Which Could Seriously Harm Our Business.

 

From time to time, we have acquired technology or businesses to supplement and expand our product offerings. In the future, we could acquire additional products, technologies or businesses, or enter into joint venture arrangements, for the purpose of complementing or expanding our business. Negotiation of potential acquisitions or joint ventures and our integration of acquired products, technologies or businesses could divert management’s time and resources. Future acquisitions could cause us to issue equity securities that would dilute your ownership of us, incur debt or contingent liabilities, amortize intangible assets, or write off in-process research and development and other acquisition-related expenses that could have a material adverse affect on our business, results of operation and our financial condition. We may not be able to properly integrate acquired products, technologies or businesses with our existing products and operations, train, retain and motivate personnel from the acquired businesses, or combine potentially different corporate cultures. Failure to do so

 

44


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

could deprive us of the intended benefits of those acquisitions. In addition, we may be required to write-off acquired research and development if further development of purchased technology becomes unfeasible, which may adversely affect our business, results of operation and our financial condition.

 

If We Fail To Adequately Protect Our Intellectual Property Rights Or Face A Claim Of Intellectual Property Infringement By A Third Party, We Could Lose Our Intellectual Property Rights Or Be Liable For Significant Damages.

 

We rely primarily on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary rights. However, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and we cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will prevent misappropriation of our intellectual property. This is particularly true in India, where a significant portion of our solution operations are located, and other foreign countries such as China where the laws do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States and may not provide us with an effective remedy against piracy. The misappropriation or duplication of our intellectual property could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees, reduce our revenues and increase our expenses. Any litigation to defend our intellectual property rights could be time-consuming and costly.

 

There has been a substantial amount of litigation in the software industry regarding intellectual property rights. As a result, we may be subject to claims of intellectual property infringement. Although we are not aware that any of our products infringe upon the proprietary rights of third parties, third parties may claim infringement by us with respect to current or future products. Any infringement claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation or damages, cause product shipment delays or the loss or deferral of sales, or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. If we enter into royalty or licensing agreements in settlement of any litigation or claims, these agreements may not be on terms acceptable to us. Unfavorable royalty and licensing agreements could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

We Are Dependent On Third-Party Software That We Incorporate Into And Include With Our Products And Solutions. Impaired Relations With These Third Parties, Defects In Third-Party Software Or The Inability To Enhance Their Software Over Time Could Harm Our Business.

 

We incorporate and include third-party software into and with our products and solutions. Additionally, we may incorporate and include additional third-party software into and with our products and solutions in future product offerings. The operation of our products could be impaired if errors occur in the third-party software that we utilize. It may be more difficult for us to correct any defects in third-party software because the development and maintenance of the software is not within our control. Accordingly, our business could be adversely affected in the event of any errors in this software. There can be no assurance that these third parties will continue to make their software available to us on acceptable terms, to invest the appropriate levels of resources in their products and services to maintain and enhance the software capabilities, or to remain in business.

 

Further, it may be difficult for us to replace any third-party software if a vendor seeks to terminate our license to the software or our ability to license the software to customers. Any impairment in our relationship with these third parties could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

We Face Risks Associated With International Sales And Operations That Could Harm Our Company.

 

International revenues accounted for approximately 33.6% of our total revenues during 2003, and we expect to continue to generate a significant portion of our revenues from international sales in the future. Our international operations are subject to risks inherent in international business activities, including the tendency of

 

45


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

markets outside of the U.S. to be more volatile and difficult to forecast than the U.S. market. Any of the following factors, among other things, could adversely affect the success of our international operations:

 

    Difficulties and costs of staffing and managing geographically disparate operations.

 

    Extended accounts receivable payment cycles in certain countries.

 

    Compliance with a variety of foreign laws and regulations.

 

    Overlap of different tax structures.

 

    Meeting import and export licensing requirements.

 

    Trade restrictions.

 

    Changes in tariff rates.

 

    Changes in general economic and political conditions in international markets.

 

The Expansion Of Our Operations In India Poses Significant Risks That Could Impair Our Ability To Develop Our Products Or Put Our Products At A Competitive Disadvantage.

 

We have shifted a large proportion of our development and services capacity to India. However, we may not fully achieve the cost savings and other benefits that we anticipate from this program and we may not be able to attract or retain sufficient numbers of developers with the necessary skill sets in India to meet our needs. Our current infrastructure in India is less developed than our North American infrastructure and the distributed nature of our development resources could create further operational challenges and complications. Additionally, we have a heightened risk exposure to changes in the economic, security and political conditions of India. Operational issues, recruiting and retention issues, economic and political instability, military actions and other unforeseen occurrences in India could impair our ability to develop and introduce new software applications and functionality in a timely manner, or hinder our ability to provide cost-competitive services, either of which could put our products at a competitive disadvantage and cause us to lose existing customers or fail to attract new customers.

 

Changes In The Value Of The U.S. Dollar, As Compared To The Currencies Of Foreign Countries Where We Transact Business, Could Harm Our Operating Results.

 

To date, our international revenues have been denominated primarily in U.S. Dollars. However, the majority of our international expenses, including the wages of approximately 54% of our employees, have been denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. Therefore, changes in the value of the U.S. Dollar as compared to these other currencies may adversely affect our operating results. We have implemented limited hedging programs to mitigate our exposure to currency fluctuations affecting international accounts receivable, cash balances and intercompany accounts, but we do not hedge our exposure to currency fluctuations affecting future international revenues and expenses and other commitments. For the foregoing reasons, currency exchange rate fluctuations have caused, and likely will continue to cause, variability in our foreign currency denominated revenue streams and our cost to settle foreign currency denominated liabilities.

 

We May Become Subject To Product Liability Claims That Could Seriously Harm Our Business.

 

Our software products generally are used by our customers in mission critical applications where component failures could cause significant damages. To mitigate this exposure, our license agreements typically seek to limit our exposure to product liability claims from our customers. However, these contract provisions may not preclude all potential claims. Additionally, our insurance policies may be inadequate to protect us from all liability that we may face. Product liability claims could require us to spend significant time and money in litigation or to pay significant damages. As a result, any claim, whether or not successful, could harm our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related To Our Industry

 

If Our Products Are Not Able To Deliver Quick, Demonstrable Value To Our Customers, Our Business Could Be Seriously Harmed.

 

Enterprises are requiring their application software vendors to provide faster time to value on their technology investments. We must continue to improve the speed of our implementations and the pace at which our products deliver value or our competitors may gain important strategic advantages over us. If we cannot successfully respond to these market demands, or if our competitors do so more effectively than us, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

 

Releases Of And Problems With New Products May Cause Purchasing Delays, Which Would Harm Our Revenues.

 

Our practice and the practice in the industry is to periodically develop and release new products and enhancements. As a result, customers may delay their purchasing decisions in anticipation of our new or enhanced products, or products of competitors. Delays in customer purchasing decisions could seriously harm our business and operating results. Moreover, significant delays in the general availability of new releases, significant problems in the installation or implementation of new releases, or customer dissatisfaction with new releases could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Risks Related To Our Stock

 

Our Inability To List Our Common Stock On The NASDAQ National Market May Make Our Common Stock More Difficult To Trade, Harm Our Business Reputation and Adversely Affect Our Ability To Raise Funds In The Capital Markets.

 

The de-listing of our common stock from The NASDAQ National Market may have made our common stock more difficult to trade, may have harmed our general business reputation and may have impaired our ability to raise funds in the capital markets, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We may not be able to satisfy NASDAQ’s initial listing requirements to be eligible to re-apply for listing on the NASDAQ National Market. Further, if we decide to request stockholder approval for a reverse split of our common stock in order to comply with the $5 minimum bid price requirement, there can be no assurance that we will obtain stockholder approval for the reverse split. If we are successful in obtaining such approval and are accepted for listing on the NASDAQ National Market, there is still a risk that our common stock price will decline to levels that would again cause us not to comply with NASDAQ listing standards.

 

Our Executive Officers And Directors, In Particular Sanjiv Sidhu, Have Significant Influence Over Stockholder Votes.

 

As of February 29, 2004 our current executive officers and directors together beneficially owned approximately 29% of the total voting power of our company, 27% of which was beneficially owned by Sanjiv Sidhu, our Chairman, CEO and President, and entities that he controls. Accordingly, Mr. Sidhu and other officers and directors holding stock in our company have significant influence in determining the composition of our Board of Directors and other significant matters requiring stockholder approval or acquiescence, including amendments to our certificate of incorporation, a substantial sale of assets, a merger or similar corporate transaction or a non-negotiated takeover attempt. Such concentration of ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making an offer to buy our company that other stockholders might find favorable, which in turn could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

Our Charter And Bylaws Have Anti-Takeover Provisions And We Have A Stockholder Rights Plan Which, In Combination, Effectively Inhibit A Non-Negotiated Merger Or Business Combination.

 

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws, Delaware law and our stockholder rights plan could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our

 

47


Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements

stockholders. We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which restricts certain business combinations with interested stockholders. The combination of these provisions effectively inhibits a non-negotiated merger or other business combination.

 

Our Stock Price Historically Has Been Volatile, Which May Make It More Difficult For You To Resell Common Stock When You Want At Prices You Find Attractive.

 

The market price of our common stock has been highly volatile in the past, and may continue to be volatile in the future. For example, during 2003 the market price of our common stock on The NASDAQ National Market and the over-the-counter Pink Sheets fluctuated between $0.53 and $2.16 per share. The following factors could significantly affect the market price of our common stock:

 

    Continued negative cash flows.

 

    Continued quarterly variations in our results of operations.

 

    If effected, a reverse split of our common stock.

 

    The market or system on which our common stock trades.

 

    Announcement of new customers, new products, product enhancements, joint ventures and other alliances by our competitors or us.

 

    Technological innovations by our competitors or us.

 

    Stock valuations or performance of our competitors.

 

    General market conditions, geopolitical events or market conditions specific to particular industries.

 

    Perceptions in the marketplace of performance problems involving our products and services.

 

    Any future decision to restate any of our financial results.

 

In particular, the stock prices of many companies in the technology and emerging growth sectors have fluctuated widely, often due to events unrelated to their operating performance. These fluctuations may harm the market price of our common stock.

ITEM 9.    CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

 

As recommended by our Audit Committee, on May 7, 2002 our Board of Directors appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as our independent public accountants for the fiscal year ending 2002, replacing our former independent public accountants Arthur Andersen LLP, who were dismissed as our auditors effective as of that date. The change was previously reported by i2 in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 8, 2002.

ITEM 9A.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.    As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” as of the end of the period covered by this report. As defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures of our company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We formed a disclosure committee in 2002 that includes senior financial, operational and legal personnel charged with assisting our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in overseeing the accuracy and timeliness of our periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act and in evaluating regularly our disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report in that they were reasonably designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, is based in part upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.    As required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, also conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any change occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, other than as described below, during our most recent fiscal quarter there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

A remedial plan has been completed in response to the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements and we have implemented senior management’s recommendations for enhancements to our control processes and procedures as set forth in that plan. These enhancements to our control processes and procedures include: increased review of the facts and circumstances surrounding our transactions, implementations and products; expansion of our transaction sign-off procedures to include certain field personnel and development personnel; enhanced training with respect to revenue recognition policies and procedures for our field personnel and personnel in our services and development organizations; modification of the incentive compensation structure of certain field personnel to eliminate compensation based upon recognized revenue; expansion of our quarterly sign-off; enhanced release management review and approval processes; enhancement of our post-transaction monitoring of implementations; expansion of the responsibilities of our internal audit team; enhanced analysis and support for the accounting used when recording business acquisition transactions; and enhanced analysis and support for our accrued liability accounts.

 

We continue to consider further actions to improve the effectiveness of our control processes and procedures.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

i2 Technologies, Inc.

Dallas, Texas

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of i2 Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective January 1, 2002.

1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of Operations.    We are a provider of enterprise supply chain management solutions, including various supply chain software and service offerings. We operate our business in one business segment. Supply chain management is the set of processes, technology and expertise involved in managing supply, demand and fulfillment throughout divisions within a company and with its customers, suppliers and partners. The goals of our solutions include increasing supply chain efficiency and enhancing customer and supplier relationships by managing variability, reducing complexity, improving operational visibility, increasing operating velocity and integrating planning and execution. Our offerings help customers maximize efficiency in relation to sourcing, supply, demand, fulfillment and logistics performance. Our application software is often bundled with other offerings including content and services we provide such as business optimization and technical consulting, training, solution maintenance, content management, software upgrades and development.

 

Principles of Consolidation.    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of i2 Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

In 2001, we acquired Trade Services Corporation, including its affiliate ec-Content (collectively, TSC), and RightWorks Corporation (Rightworks). Each of these transactions was accounted for as a purchase business combination. Accordingly, the results of operations of these entities have been included with our results of operations since their respective acquisition dates. A more detailed discussion of business combinations is presented in Note 2 — Business Combinations.

 

Use of Estimates.    Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make 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, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, provision for doubtful accounts and sales returns, fair value of investments, fair value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, income taxes, restructuring obligations, and contingencies and litigation, among others. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by management with respect to these items and other items that require management’s estimates.

 

Cash and cash equivalents.    Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits with financial institutions, short-term time deposits and other liquid investments in debt securities with initial maturities of less than three months when acquired by us.

 

Restricted Cash.    At December 31, 2003 and 2002, $15.5 million and $12.1 million in restricted cash, respectively, was pledged as collateral. (See Note 7 – Borrowings and Debt Issuance Costs)

 

Investments.    Investments in debt securities are classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Investments in debt securities are classified as available-for-sale when they might be sold before maturity. Investments in marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale. Investments in equity securities with no public market are carried at cost. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income. Management determines the appropriate classification of securities at the time of purchase.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

Interest income includes amortization of purchase premiums and discounts. Gains and losses on sales are based on the amortized cost of the security sold. Securities are written down to fair value when a decline in fair value is considered to be other-than-temporary.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.    The allowance for doubtful accounts is a reserve established through a provision for bad debts charged to expense and represents our best estimate of probable losses resulting from non-payment of amounts recorded in the existing accounts receivable portfolio. The allowance, in our judgment, is necessary to reserve for known and inherent collection risks in the accounts receivable portfolio. In estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider our historical write-off experience, accounts receivable aging reports, the credit-worthiness of individual customers, economic conditions affecting specific customer industries and general economic conditions, among other factors. Should any of these factors change, our estimate of probable losses due to bad debts could also change, which could affect the level of our future provisions for bad debts.

 

Financial Instruments.    Financial assets that potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of investments and accounts receivable. Cash on deposit is held with financial institutions with high credit standings. Debt security investments are generally in highly rated corporations and municipalities as well as agencies of the U.S. government. Our customer base consists of large numbers of geographically diverse customers dispersed across many industries. As a result, concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is not significant. However, we periodically perform credit evaluations for most of our customers and maintain reserves for potential losses. In certain situations we may require letters of credit to be issued on behalf of some customers to mitigate our exposure to credit risk. We may also use foreign exchange contracts to hedge the risk in receivables denominated in foreign currencies. Risk of non-performance by counterparties to such contracts is minimal due to the size and credit standings of the financial institutions used.

 

Premises and Equipment.    Premises and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated over their useful lives ranging from three to seven years using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over shorter of the expected term of the lease or estimated useful life.

 

Goodwill.    On January 1, 2002, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 142 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” we ceased amortizing goodwill and adopted a new policy for measuring goodwill for impairment. While no goodwill impairment was recorded in conjunction with the adoption of the new accounting standard, we previously recorded an impairment charge of approximately $4.2 billion of goodwill, in the third quarter of 2001 prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 142. Under our new policy, we will test for impairment once annually, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that may indicate that the fair value of our reporting unit is below its carrying value. Goodwill is tested for impairment using a two-step approach. The first step is to compare the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered impaired and the second step is not required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the second step of the impairment test measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any. The second step of the impairment test is to compare the implied fair value of goodwill to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is calculated in the same manner that goodwill is calculated in a business combination, whereby the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price. The excess “purchase price” over the amounts assigned to assets and liabilities would be the implied fair value of goodwill.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

We currently operate as a single reporting unit and measure the minimum fair value of our single reporting unit as our market capitalization, or, the product of (i) the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding and (ii) the market price of our common stock. We performed our annual impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2003. No impairment was present upon performing the impairment test. We cannot predict the occurrence of certain events that might adversely affect the reported value of goodwill. Such events may include, but are not limited to, our recent financial performance, negative cash flow, the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements and the related SEC investigation and securities class action lawsuits and the de-listing of our common stock from The NASDAQ National Market.

 

Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets.    Acquired technology and other intangible assets, such as installed customer base and content databases, with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods of 18 to 36 months. Beginning in 2002, intangibles with definite lives are evaluated for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”). SFAS No. 144 requires that we evaluate long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable based on expected undiscounted cash flows attributable to that asset. The amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset. Other long-lived assets include software, information databases and installed customer base/relationships acquired from third parties or in business combinations. During 2002, we recorded impairment charges related to definite lived intangible assets of $37.7 million, respectively, based on expected undiscounted cash flows attributable to these assets. (See Note 6 — Intangible Assets, Goodwill and Impairment Charges.)

 

In-Process Research and Development.    Technology or business acquisitions may include the purchase of technology that has not yet been determined to be technologically feasible and has no alternative future use in its then-current stage of development. The portion of the purchase price allocated to in-process research and development is expensed immediately upon the consummation of the acquisition. In making the purchase price allocation, we consider present value calculations of income, an analysis of project accomplishments and remaining outstanding items, an assessment of overall contributions, as well as project risks. The value assigned to purchased in-process technology is determined by estimating the costs to develop the acquired technology into commercially viable products, estimating the resulting net cash flows from the projects, and discounting the net cash flows to their present value. The revenue projection used to value the in-process research and development is based on estimates of relevant market sizes and growth factors, expected trends in technology, and the nature and expected timing of new product introductions by our competitors and us. The resulting net cash flows from such projects are based on our estimates of cost of sales, operating expenses, and income taxes from such projects.

 

Capitalized Research and Development Costs.    Software development costs are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at which time such costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. To date, the establishment of technological feasibility of our products has coincided with the general release of such software. As a result, we have not capitalized any such costs other than those recorded in connection with our acquisitions.

 

Revenue Recognition.    We derive revenues from licenses of our software and related services, which include assistance in implementation, integration, customization, maintenance, training and consulting. We recognize revenue for software and related services in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 81-1, “Accounting for Certain Construction Type and Certain Production Type Contracts,” SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as modified by SOP 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions,” and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 101, “Revenue Recognition.”

Software License Revenue.    Under SOP 97-2, software license revenues are generally recognized upon delivery, provided persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, fees are fixed or determinable and collection is deemed probable. We evaluate each of these criteria as follows:

 

    Evidence of an arrangement:    We consider a non-cancelable agreement signed by us and the customer to be evidence of an arrangement.

 

    Delivery:    Delivery is considered to occur when media containing the licensed programs is provided to a common carrier or, in the case of electronic delivery, the customer is given access to the licensed programs. Our typical end user license agreement does not include customer acceptance provisions.

 

    Fixed or determinable fee:    We consider the fee to be fixed or determinable if the fee is not subject to refund or adjustment and the payment terms are within our normal established practices. If the fee is not fixed or determinable, we recognize the revenue as amounts become due and payable.

 

    Collection is deemed probable:    We conduct a credit review for all significant transactions at the time of the arrangement to determine the credit-worthiness of the customer. Collection is deemed probable if we expect that the customer will pay amounts under the arrangement as payments become due. If we determine that collection is not probable, we defer the revenue and recognize the revenue upon receipt of cash.

 

Revenue for license arrangements that include one or more additional elements (i.e., services and maintenance) to be delivered at a future date is generally recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered element(s) is deferred, and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as license revenue. If fair values have not been established for the undelivered element(s), all revenue associated with the arrangement is deferred until all element(s) have been delivered or the fair value of undelivered elements has been determined. Fair value for an individual element within an arrangement may be established when that element, when contracted for separately, is priced in a consistent manner. Fair value for our maintenance and consulting services has been established as a result of our consistent maintenance renewal rates and consultant billing rates, respectively. Arrangements that include a right to unspecified future products are accounted for as subscriptions and recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement. License fees from reseller arrangements are generally based on the sublicenses granted by the reseller and recognized when the license is sold to the end customer. Licenses to our content databases are recognized over the term of the content database license and are classified as license revenue.

 

Development Services.    Development services projects include our license of software products and our agreement with customers to provide services to customize or enhance the software so that the software performs in accordance with specific customer requirements. As our services are essential to provide the required functionality, we recognize revenue from these arrangements in accordance SOP 81-1 using either the percentage-of-completion method or the completed contract method. The percentage-of-completion method is used when the required services are quantifiable, based on the estimated number of labor hours necessary to complete the project, and under that method revenues are recognized using labor hours incurred as the measure of progress towards completion but is limited to revenue that has been earned by the attainment of any milestones included in the contract. The completed contract method is used when the required services are not quantifiable, and under that method revenues are recognized only when we have satisfied all of our product and/or service delivery obligations to the customer.

 

Contract Revenue.    Contract revenue consists of fees generated from license, services and maintenance revenue attributable to those transactions for which we determined to change the accounting from revenue recognition under SOP 97-2 to contract accounting under SOP 81-1 in connection with the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements for the years ended 2001 and 2000 and the first three

quarters of 2002. Under SOP 81-1 when it is necessary for us to perform services that are essential to the functionality of our product so that the software performs in accordance with customer requirements we recognize such revenue using either the percentage-of-completion method or the completed contract method referred to above. As of December 31, 2003, $124.6 million of revenue deferred as a result of the changes discussed above remains on our balance sheet as deferred revenue. There are a limited number of transactions that remain in deferred revenue at December 31, 2003 in which certain non-implemented software products for which services are essential are no longer being licensed by us. In these cases, we believe that it is unlikely that the customer will implement these software products, although most are using other products and services from us.

 

Services Revenue.    Services revenue is primarily derived from fees for implementation, integration, consulting and training services and is generally recognized when services are performed. Contractual terms may include the following payment arrangements: fixed fee, full-time equivalent, milestone, and time and material. Services revenue also includes reimbursements received from customers for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with providing services.

 

Maintenance Revenue.    Maintenance revenue consists of fees generated by providing software maintenance, upgrades and support to customers, such as telephone support and new releases of software and updated user documentation. A customer typically prepays maintenance and support fees for an initial period, and the related revenue is deferred and generally recognized over the term of such initial period. Maintenance is renewable by the customer on an annual basis thereafter. Rates for maintenance, including subsequent renewal rates, are typically established based upon a specified percentage of net license fees as set forth in the contract.

 

Third-Party Software Royalties.    Payments received in advance of revenue recognition are classified as deferred revenue in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Royalties paid for third-party software products integrated with our technology are expensed when the products are shipped while commissions payable to affiliates in connection with sales assistance are expensed when the revenue on transactions is recognized. Accrued royalties payable totalled $3.2 million and $8.1 million as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, while accrued affiliate commissions payable totalled $0.6 million and $5.3 million as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

 

Concurrent Transactions.    We occasionally enter into transactions which are concluded at or about the same time as other arrangements with the same customer. These concurrent transactions are accounted for under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions, as interpreted by EITF 01-02 Interpretations of APB Opinion No. 29. Generally, the recognition of a gain or loss on the exchange is measured based on the fair value of the assets involved to the extent that the fair value can be reasonably determined. A transaction that is not a culmination of the earnings process is based on the net book value of the asset relinquished.

 

Warranty.    We generally warrant our products will function substantially in accordance with documentation provided to customers. We accrue for warranty claims on a case-by-case basis; however, due to the unique nature of each claim and lack of a settlement history, estimating the necessary accrual involves an element of uncertainty.

 

Deferred Taxes.    Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent estimated future tax amounts attributable to the differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and their respective tax bases. These estimates are computed using the tax rates in effect for the applicable period. Realization of our deferred tax assets is, for the most part, dependent upon our U.S. consolidated tax group of

companies having sufficient federal taxable income in future years to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards before they expire. Because we did not believe we would earn sufficient taxable income to utilize all of the deferred tax assets, during the second quarter of 2002, we recorded a valuation allowance for all of our remaining deferred tax assets. This resulted in a $887.3 million charge to income tax expense. We adjust our deferred tax valuation allowance in light of certain factors, including our financial performance. Despite the valuation allowance, these deferred tax assets and the future tax-deductible benefits related to these deferred tax assets will remain available to offset future taxable income over the remaining useful lives of the underlying deferred tax assets.

 

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share.    Basic net income (loss) per common share is based on net income (loss) divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share include (i) the dilutive effect of stock options, stock rights and warrants granted using the treasury stock method, (ii) the effect of contingently issuable shares earned during the period and (iii) shares issuable under the conversion feature of our convertible notes using the if-converted method. A reconciliation of the weighted-average shares used in calculating basic earnings per common share and the weighted average common shares used in calculating diluted earnings per common share for 2003, 2002 and 2001 is provided in Note 9 — Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) and Loss Per Common Share.

 

Stock-Based Compensation Plans.    Employee compensation expense under stock option plans is reported only if options are granted below market price at grant date in accordance with the intrinsic value method of APB Opinion No. 25. SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation,” as amended by SFAS No. 148, requires pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share for companies not adopting its fair value accounting method for stock-based employee compensation.

 

The weighted average fair value of options granted in 2003, 2002 and 2001 was $1.55, $2.80 and $7.16 per option, respectively. Fair values of options are estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for 2003, 2002 and 2001: risk-free interest rates of 2.5%, 3.5% and 4.3%; market price volatility factors of 1.26, 1.18 and 1.04; a weighted-average expected life of the options of 4 years; and no dividend yields.

 

The fair value of shares issued under the employee stock purchase plans was estimated as of the initial day of the purchase period using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively: risk free interest rates of 2.2%, 1.7% and 3.8%; market price volatility factors of 1.16, 1.37 and 1.28; a weighted-average expected life of the purchase right of 6 months; and no dividend yields. The weighted-average fair value of purchase rights granted under the employee stock purchase plans during 2003, 2002 and 2001 were $0.27, $1.31 and $12.15, respectively.

The following pro forma information presents net loss and loss per common share for 2003, 2002 and 2001 had the fair value method of SFAS No. 123 been used to measure compensation cost for stock-based compensation plans. For purposes of these pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options and stock rights is amortized to expense over the related vesting periods and the estimated fair value of the employee stock purchase plans’ shares is amortized to expense over the purchase period. During 2002, we ceased recognizing tax benefits for net operating losses for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments for 2003 in the table below have not been tax affected.

Deferred Compensation.    Deferred compensation is recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital for certain stock options and stock right awards issued. The compensation is valued at the grant date and recognized over the service period.

 

Foreign Currency Translation.    The functional currency for the majority of our foreign subsidiaries is the local currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date while income and expense amounts are translated at average exchange rates during the period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are disclosed as a separate component of stockholders’ equity (deficit) and other comprehensive loss. The functional currency of one significant foreign subsidiary is the US dollar; therefore, there is no translation adjustment required for this subsidiary. Transaction gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a non-functional currency and due to changes in exchange rates are recorded in foreign currency hedge and transaction gains (losses), net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

Fair Values of Financial Instruments.    Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates. The estimated fair value approximates carrying value for all financial instruments except investment securities and long-term debt. Fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar instruments. The fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted market prices, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the interest rates currently offered for similar debt of similar remaining maturity.

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss).    Comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in equity during a period, except those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners.

FIN 46 requires an investor with a majority of the variable interests (primary beneficiary) in a variable interest entity (VIE) to consolidate the entity and also requires majority and significant variable interest investors to provide certain disclosures. A VIE is an entity in which the voting equity investors do not have a controlling financial interest or the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance the entity’s activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from the other parties. Development-stage entities that have sufficient equity invested to finance the activities they are currently engaged in and entities that are businesses, as defined in the Interpretation, are not considered VIEs. The provisions of FIN 46 were effective immediately for all arrangements entered into with new VIEs created after January 31, 2003. We completed a review of our investments in both non-marketable and marketable equity securities as well as other arrangements to determine whether we are the primary beneficiary of any VIEs. The review did not identify any VIEs that would require consolidation or any significant exposure to VIEs that would require disclosure.

 

2.    Business Combinations

 

RightWorks.    On August 22, 2001, we completed our acquisition of RightWorks Corporation, a developer of software that is designed to help companies manage procurement activities across multiple enterprises for both direct and indirect materials, and support corporate buying models. We purchased all the outstanding shares of RightWorks for approximately $72.3 million. The total purchase price includes $38.8 million of our common stock (5.4 million shares), stock warrants and stock rights; approximately $18.4 million in acquisition-related costs primarily for professional fees; and $1.5 million related to our relinquishing a prior investment in RightWorks; and a $28.6 million loan discussed below. Offsetting these items, in connection with the acquisition we were assigned a $14.0 million promissory note and approximately $1.0 million in accrued interest payable by RightWorks to Internet Capital Group, Inc., the majority shareholder of RightWorks prior to our acquisition. This acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination; accordingly, the results of operations of RightWorks have been included with our results of operations since August 22, 2001.

 

On March 28, 2001, we entered into a loan and security agreement with RightWorks whereby we agreed to loan them up to $25.0 million to provide operating capital until our acquisition was closed. The credit limit was subsequently increased to $40.0 million. The loan is secured by substantially all of the assets of RightWorks. Principal and interest, accrued at a rate of 15.0% per annum, are due upon the termination of the loan agreement, which is the date we demand payment. As of August 22, 2001, the date of our acquisition of RightWorks, the outstanding principal balance of the loan was $28.6 million and accrued interest totalled $1.0 million. No subsequent cash fundings will be made in connection with this loan and security agreement. On August 22, 2001, the principal balance and accrued interest related to the loan were reclassified as intercompany balances that are eliminated in consolidation.

 

The total purchase price paid for the acquisition was allocated based on the estimated fair values of the assets acquired as follows:

 

Net liabilities assumed

   $ (5,217 )

Intangible asset:

        

Developed technology (useful life of 3 years)

     23,000  

In-process research and development

     8,000  

Goodwill

     46,566

In connection with our acquisition of RightWorks, $8.0 million, or 18.3%, of the purchase price represented purchased in-process technology that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use. Accordingly, this amount was immediately expensed upon consummation of the acquisition. At the acquisition date, the technologies under development, primarily the next release of the RightWorks eBusiness Application Suite, were approximately 70.0% complete based on engineering man-month data and technological progress. The value was determined by estimating the costs to develop the purchased in-process technology into commercially viable products, estimating the net cash flows from such projects, and discounting the net cash flows to their present value. A discount rate of 30.0% was used, which includes a factor that considered the uncertainty surrounding the successful development of the purchased in-process technology. The products were incorporated into and made generally available with our i2 Five.Two release in the fourth quarter of 2001.

 

Pro forma condensed consolidated results of operations assuming RightWorks had been acquired on January 1, 2001 are not presented because the acquisition of RightWorks was not considered significant, either individually or when aggregated with the acquisition of TSC.

 

Trade Service Corporation.    On March 23, 2001, we completed our acquisition of Trade Service Corporation, a provider of maintenance, repair and overhaul content and its affiliate ec-Content, Inc. (collectively, “TSC”), which develops and manages content for digital marketplaces, procurement and supplier syndication. We purchased all the outstanding stock of both companies for approximately $79.3 million, including acquisition-related costs. The total purchase price includes $5.0 million in cash, 800,000 shares of our common stock with a fair market value of $12.4 million when issued, a convertible promissory note for $60.9 million and approximately $1.0 million in acquisition costs. See Note 7 — Borrowings and Debt Issuance Costs for details of the convertible promissory note. This acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination; accordingly, the results of operations of TSC have been included with our results of operations since March 23, 2001.

 

The total purchase price paid for the acquisition was allocated based on the estimated fair values of the assets acquired as follows:

 

Net liabilities assumed

   $ (19,131 )

Intangible assets:

        

Developed technology

     8,500  

Assembled workforce

     600

     14,800  

Goodwill

     57,343  

In-process research and development

     4,700  
    


Total

   $ 79,312  
    


 

In connection with our acquisition of TSC, $4.7 million, or 5.9%, of the purchase price represented purchased in-process technology that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use. Accordingly, this amount was immediately expensed upon consummation of the acquisition. At the acquisition date, the technologies under development, including web-based content management and web-enablement technologies, ranged from 22.0% to 45.0% complete based on engineering man-month data and technological progress. The value was determined by estimating the costs to develop the purchased in-process technology into commercially viable products, estimating the net cash flows from such projects, and discounting the net cash flows to their present value. A discount rate of 30.0% was used, which includes a factor that considered the uncertainty surrounding the successful development of the purchased in-process technology.

These projects were intended to address issues surrounding web-based content management and web-enablement. The ec-Central project was terminated in June 2001 because a substitute technology was identified. A prototype design related to the eTRA-SER project was completed in December 2001, but additional design work was required prior to the product release. During the third quarter of 2002, we made the decision to significantly scale-back on a key component of the project. With this decision, the eTRA-SER program was essentially discontinued and there is currently no product release plan for eTRA-SER.

 

Pro forma condensed consolidated results of operations assuming TSC had been acquired on January 1, 2001 are not presented because the acquisition of TSC was not considered significant.

 

3.    Investment Securities

 

Short-term time deposits and other liquid investments in debt securities with original maturities of less than three months when acquired by us are classified as available-for-sale and reported as cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The estimated fair value of these investments approximates their carrying value as the rate on such securities resets generally every 7 to 28 days. Hence, interest rate movements do not affect the balance sheet valuation of the fixed investments. Investment securities reported as cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 were as follows:

As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, corporate equity securities included common stock of public companies as well as warrants to purchase common stock of public companies.

 

We hold minority equity investments in various privately held and publicly traded companies for business and strategic purposes. Our investments in publicly traded companies are subject to market price volatility. As a result of market price volatility, we experienced an $8.2 million net after-tax unrealized loss on these investments during 2002. We also wrote-down, by $6,000 in 2003 and $2.5 million in 2002, the carrying basis of certain equity investments in publicly traded companies as a result of significant declines in the fair value of these investments during those years. The remaining carrying value of minority equity investments was zero at December 31, 2003.

 

We have invested in several privately held companies, many of which can still be considered in the start-up or development stages or may no longer be viable or operational. As a result of significant declines in the expected realizable amounts of these investments, we wrote off all of our investments in privately held companies and recognized total losses and write offs of $68.6 million in 2001.

Intangible assets are being amortized over periods ranging from 18 months to three years. Accumulated amortization related to intangible assets includes the impairment charges recorded during 2003 and 2002, as further discussed below.

 

Amortization expense related to intangible assets totalled $1.1 million, $26.4 million and $106.2 million in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The net intangible asset balance, excluding debt issuance costs, of $408,000 at December 31, 2003 will be fully amortized in 2004.

 

Goodwill.    Goodwill totalled $16.6 million and $15.9 million at December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. On January 1, 2002, in accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” we ceased amortizing goodwill and adopted a new policy for measuring goodwill for impairment. While no goodwill impairment was recorded in conjunction with the adoption of the new accounting standard, the decrease in goodwill during 2002 resulted from the reversal of $5.5 million of estimated acquisition costs accrued in connection with the purchase of RightWorks. The reversal of the accrual resulted from the termination of a future lease obligation and was recorded in the second quarter of 2002. In June 2003, we paid $0.7 million in contingent consideration related to our acquisition of Trade Services Corporation (TSC) in March 2001. As a result of this payment, our goodwill balance has increased by $0.7 million.

 

The following table presents net loss and loss per common share for 2001 adjusted to exclude goodwill amortization expense.

Impairment Charges.    During the third quarter of 2002, we performed an assessment of the carrying values of our intangible assets and goodwill recorded in connection with various acquisitions. This assessment was performed due to indications the carrying amounts of these assets may not be recoverable. Such indications included our continued operating losses and our financial projections of continuing losses for the intangible assets. As a result of this assessment, we recorded an impairment charge of $37.7 million. In testing these assets for potential impairment, we categorized and analyzed the assets in asset groups by related acquisition as follows: (i) Rightworks, (ii) TSC (iii) Aspect / SupplyBase, and (iv) IBM. Using internal projections and historical run rates, we estimated the future cash flows for the asset groups to determine if the intangible assets were impaired. Upon determining the existence of impairment, we then discounted the estimated future cash flows over the remaining useful lives of the primary assets to estimate their current fair value. The estimated future cash flows were discounted using our estimated weighted average cost of capital. The amount of the impairment charge represents the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying amount of the asset groups prior to impairment. The impairment charge was then allocated to the individual assets within the corresponding asset groups as follows: $9.3 million for content databases; $1.5 million for installed customer base; $18.4 million for developed technology; and $8.5 million for relationships. No impairment of goodwill was recognized as the fair value of our single reporting unit was greater than its carrying amount.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

In conjunction with the impairment analysis performed during the third quarter of 2002, we also reassessed the estimated useful lives of the remaining intangible assets. As a result of this assessment, we shortened the remaining useful life for the remaining unamortized relationships intangible asset to 18 months from the remaining useful life of 42 months prior to impairment (this intangible asset had an original useful life of 54 months). The remaining useful lives of the other intangible assets were not changed.

 

During 2001, we performed an assessment of the carrying values of our intangible assets and goodwill recorded in connection with various acquisitions due to significant negative economic trends impacting our operations and expected future growth rates as well as a decline in our stock price and the market valuations for companies within our industry. Additionally, at this time, the net book value of our assets significantly exceeded our market capitalization. As a result, we recorded $164.3 million in write-downs of certain intangible assets and a $4.2 billion write-down of goodwill.

 

The $164.3 million write-down of intangible assets in 2001 was based on the amount by which the carrying amount of these assets exceeded fair value. The fair value of the intangible assets was determined by discounting our best estimates of the expected future cash flows related to these assets. This methodology was used to determine the fair value of these assets when they were initially recorded; however, the expected future cash flows from these assets as of the date of the valuation were significantly less than our previous expectations. The rate used to discount our cash flow expectations was based on our weighted-average cost of capital. Intangible assets written-down include $4.6 million of assembled workforce intangibles, $20.0 million of installed customer base intangibles, $0.4 million of intellectual property, $69.8 million of cross patent rights, $21.3 million of developed technology and $48.2 million of content databases. The majority of these assets were originally recorded in connection with the acquisition of Aspect and, to a lesser extent, the acquisitions of SupplyBase and IBM’s Makoro and Paper Mill Scheduler products.

 

The write-down of goodwill in 2001 was determined by comparing the book value of our common stock to our market capitalization as of September 30, 2001. Our market capitalization is the product of (i) the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding and (ii) the closing market price of the common stock. At September 30, 2001, we had 420,381,000 common shares issued and outstanding with a book value of $5.7 billion and a market capitalization of $1.5 billion, based on our closing common stock price of $3.44 per share. After considering all available evidence as indicated above, we determined that the condition was not temporary and we recorded a $4.2 billion write-down of goodwill equal to the excess book value over market capitalization as of September 30, 2001.

 

7.    Borrowings and Debt Issuance Costs

 

In May 2003, we entered into a lease termination agreement with the owner of one of our headquarter buildings that we vacated in January 2003 as part of our restructuring plan. The lease, originally scheduled to expire in 2011, would have required us to pay approximately $43.4 million through the lease’s original date of termination. In consideration for the early termination of the lease, we paid approximately $7.6 million in cash and issued a $6.8 million non-negotiable promissory note due and payable on December 15, 2006. The note bears interest at a rate of 5.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears. These termination amounts were charged to the restructuring accrual (see Note 11 — Restructuring Charges and Adjustments)

 

In April 2003, we obtained a waiver letter under our $20 million letter of credit line pursuant to which the lender waived, to and including July 15, 2003, any and all defaults and events of default under the line that occurred or that could occur as a result of or in connection with the re-audit and restatement of our financial statements. On April 30, 2003 this line expired and we negotiated a new letter of credit line for $15.0 million with another lender. Under the new line, we are required to maintain restricted cash in a depository account

maintained by the lender to secure letters of credit issued in connection with the new line. As of December 31, 2003, $10.1 million in letters of credit were outstanding under this line and $12.6 million in restricted cash was pledged as collateral for those outstanding letters of credit. The new line contains a letter of credit fee equal to 0.375% per year on the face amount of the letters of credit and an unused commitment fee of 0.15% per year on the average daily-unused amount of the line. The new line has no financial covenants and expires on April 29, 2004.

 

In March 2001, we issued a $60.9 million convertible promissory note in connection with our acquisition of TSC. The note had a maturity date of September 23, 2003 and bore interest of 7.5% per annum which was payable in annual installments on each anniversary date of the note and upon maturity. The principal balance of the note totalled $60.9 million at December 31, 2002, while the estimated fair value was $60.1 million at that date. On June 6, 2003, we paid $59.2 million in cash to retire the note, of which $57.5 million was for the principal of the note, $1.0 million was for accrued interest on the note through the date of prepayment and $0.7 million was for contingent consideration that became due under the TSC acquisition agreement (See Note 6 — Intangible Assets, Goodwill and Impairment Charges). The amount paid in settlement of the note and those obligations represents approximately a 5.5% discount to the principal and interest accrued under the note through the date of prepayment. We recorded a gain on the early extinguishment of this debt of $3.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2003.

 

In December 1999, we issued $350.0 million of convertible subordinated notes. The notes mature on December 15, 2006 and bear interest at a rate of 5.25%, per annum, which is payable semi-annually. The notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $38.00 per share at any time prior to maturity. On or after December 20, 2002, we have the option to redeem, in cash, all or a portion of the notes that have not been previously converted. We may also, from time to time, seek to retire the notes through cash repurchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. As of December 31, 2003, none of the notes have been converted to common stock, redeemed, or otherwise retired. The principal balance of the notes totalled $350.0 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, while the estimated fair value of the notes totalled $316.8 million and $208.6 million on those dates, respectively.

 

Interest expensed for borrowings totalled $20.6 million, $23.1 million and $22.0 million in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Actual cash payments related to interest on borrowings totalled $24.1 million, $23.1 million and $18.4 million during those years.

 

Debt Issuance Costs.    Unamortized debt issuance costs totalled $4.2 million and $5.7 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and are included in intangibles, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Debt issuance costs, initially recorded in connection with our issuance of $350.0 million in convertible debt in 1999, are amortized at a rate of $1.5 million per year over the life of the debt, which matures in December 2006. Amortization of debt issuance costs is reported as a component of other non-operating expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

8.    Commitments and Contingencies

 

We are subject to various claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business, including claims and legal proceedings which have been asserted against us by former employees and certain customers, and have been in negotiations to settle certain of those contingencies. In addition, a formal investigation is being conducted by the SEC and various legal actions have been commenced against us in connection with matters relating to the previously completed restatement of our consolidated financial statements. As discussed below, we are also attempting to settle or otherwise resolve those proceedings.

Securities and Exchange Commission Investigation

 

On or about March 26, 2003, we were advised that the SEC had issued a formal order of investigation to determine whether there have been violations of the federal securities laws by the company and/or others involved with the company in connection with matters relating to the restatement of our consolidated financial statements. Our Board of Directors had previously directed our Audit Committee to conduct an internal investigation of certain allegations made during the fall of 2001 by a former officer relating to revenue recognition and financial reporting, among other things. In November 2002, we reported to the SEC and publicly disclosed the results of that investigation, as well as certain related allegations made during the fall of 2002 by the former officer and another former officer. Thereafter, the staff of the SEC opened an informal inquiry into these allegations and other matters relating to our financial reporting, and the SEC issued its formal order of investigation.

 

We continue to be in discussions with the SEC staff and intend to continue to fully cooperate with the SEC. We cannot predict when this investigation will be completed or its outcome. However, we may face sanctions in connection with any resolution of the SEC investigation, including, but not limited to, significant monetary penalties and injunctive relief.

 

Class Action Litigation

 

Beginning in March 2001, a number of purported class action complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas Division) against the company and certain of our officers and directors. The cases were consolidated, and in August 2001 plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint. The consolidated amended complaint alleges that we and certain of our officers and directors violated the federal securities laws, specifically Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, by making purportedly false and misleading statements concerning the characteristics and implementation of certain of our software products. The consolidated amended complaint seeks unspecified damages on behalf of a purported class of purchasers of our common stock during the period from May 4, 2000 to February 26, 2001. By stipulation, in December 2002, the court certified the plaintiff class.

 

Beginning in April 2003, additional purported class action complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas Division) against the company and certain of our current and former officers and directors. The complaints brought claims under the federal securities laws, specifically Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, relating to our announcement that we would re-audit certain of our consolidated financial statements and that there would be material adjustments to our financial statements. Specifically, these actions allege that we issued a series of false or misleading statements to the market during the class period that failed to disclose that (i) we had materially overstated our revenue by improperly recognizing revenue on certain customer contracts, (ii) we lacked adequate internal controls and were therefore unable to ascertain our true financial condition, and (iii) as a result of the foregoing, our financial statements issued during the class period were materially false and misleading. Plaintiffs contend that such statements caused our stock price to be artificially inflated. The complaints seek unspecified damages on behalf of a purported class of purchasers of our common stock during the period from April 18, 2000 to January 24, 2003.

 

In July 2003, all of these class action complaints were consolidated, for purposes of pre-trial matters only. Although we have vigorously defended against these lawsuits, we have recently entered negotiations to settle the actions.

 

Derivative Litigation

 

In April 2001, a purported shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in Dallas County, Texas, against certain of our officers and directors, naming the company as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleged that certain of

our officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties to the company and our stockholders by (i) selling shares of our common stock while in possession of material adverse non-public information regarding our business and prospects, and (ii) disseminating inaccurate information regarding our business and prospects to the market and/or failing to correct such inaccurate information. This lawsuit was removed to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas Division). A motion to dismiss the action was filed, and on October 8, 2002, the motion was granted. Plaintiffs filed an appeal of that decision on October 15, 2002 and, following oral arguments, plaintiffs moved for voluntary dismissal of the appeal. On January 5, 2004, the appellate court granted plaintiffs’ voluntary dismissal motion and judgment against the plaintiffs became final.

 

In April and May 2003, two additional purported shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas Division) against certain of our officers and directors, naming the company as a nominal defendant. The complaints alleged that certain of our officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties to the company and our stockholders by: (i) causing us to improperly recognize revenue in violation of generally accepted accounting principles to artificially inflate our stock price in order to complete acquisitions in which our stock was used as consideration, (ii) selling shares of our common stock while in possession of material adverse non-public information regarding our financial statements and (iii) securing personal loans using our allegedly artificially inflated stock price. In July 2003, these lawsuits were consolidated for all purposes. Plaintiffs amended their consolidated complaint to add a claim that our Chief Executive Officer and our former Chief Financial Officer violated Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, seeking recovery from them of bonuses, equity-based compensation and profits realized from sales of securities of the company. A motion to dismiss the actions was filed, and on January 26, 2004, the motion was granted and judgment was entered against the plaintiffs. An appeal of that decision was filed on February 24, 2004.

 

In May 2003, another purported shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas Division) against our Chief Executive Officer, our former Chief Financial Officer and our directors, naming the company as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleges that our Chief Executive Officer and our former Chief Financial Officer violated Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and seeks recovery from them of bonuses, equity-based compensation and profits realized from sales of securities of the company. The lawsuit also names our current directors for failing to seek recovery of the aforementioned bonuses, equity-based compensation and trading profits. A motion to dismiss was filed, and on February 26, 2004, the motion was granted and judgment was entered against the plaintiffs. The deadline by which the plaintiffs must file a notice of appeal is March 29, 2004.

 

As stated, these lawsuits are or were derivative in nature; they do not and did not seek relief from the company. However, we have entered into indemnification agreements in the ordinary course of business with certain of the defendant officers and directors, and have advanced payment of legal fees and costs incurred by the defendants pursuant to our obligations under the indemnification agreements and/or applicable Delaware law. In addition, we may be obligated to continue to advance payment of legal fees and costs incurred by the individual defendants in the remaining lawsuits throughout the pendency of those actions. Although we have vigorously defended against these lawsuits we have recently entered into negotiations to settle these actions.

 

Certain Accruals

 

We have accrued for estimated losses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for those matters where we believe the likelihood of an adverse outcome is probable and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable.

 

F-22

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

Although we do not believe it is possible at this time to estimate the amount of monetary penalties we may face in connection with any resolution of the SEC investigation, based on the stage of the class action and derivative litigation and the status of our settlement negotiations with the plaintiffs we have determined to establish an accrual of $42.0 million in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for estimated losses relating to a possible settlement of the class action and derivative litigation. The accrual represents our estimate of the amount, in excess of expected payments from our insurance carriers, that will be required to be paid by us if a settlement of the lawsuits is achieved.

 

Negotiations to reach a final and definitive settlement of the class action and derivative lawsuits are continuing. There can be no assurance that these negotiations will result in a settlement of the lawsuits. Any settlement would be subject to numerous conditions, including the execution of a settlement agreement and court approval. If achieved, any settlement will involve significant cash payments from i2. Such cash payments could be more than the amount currently estimated and accrued for in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

The adverse resolution of any one or more of the matters described in this Note 8 — Commitments and Contingencies over and above the amount, if any, that has been estimated and accrued in the current consolidated financials could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

Other Litigation

 

In March 2000, we entered into a patent cross patent-license agreement between the company and IBM (which included a related release and covenant not to sue). The agreement resulted in the recognition of a $25.5 million non-cash, pre-tax charge during the first quarter of 2000. This is a result of our valuation of the IBM patent license, $25.5 million of which applied to the potential use of IBM intellectual property prior to March 2000.

 

In October 2000, we settled a lawsuit filed by a former employee alleging his right to exercise vested stock options in 1996, prior to the initial public offering of our stock. The settlement resulted in the recognition of a $22.4 million non-cash, pre-tax charge during the third quarter of 2000.

 

Indemnification Agreements.    We have entered into indemnification agreements with certain of our officers, directors and employees that may require us, among other things, to indemnify such officers, directors and employees against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors, officers or employees and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. Pursuant to these agreements, we plan to advance or indemnify certain current and former directors, officers and employees for fees and expenses incurred by them in connection with the internal review resulting in the restatement of its consolidated financial statements, the related SEC investigation and legal proceedings and other matters.

 

We have also entered into agreements regarding the advancement of costs with certain officers and employees. Pursuant to these agreements, we plan to advance certain officers and employees for fees and expenses incurred by them in connection with the internal review resulting in the restatement of its consolidated financial statements, the related SEC investigation and legal proceedings and other matters.

The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements and the agreements for the advancement of costs is unlimited; however, we have Director and Officer insurance that should limit our exposure and enable us to recover a portion of any future amounts paid in regards to officers and directors. Additionally, our corporate by-laws allow us to choose to indemnify any employee of our employees for certain events or occurrences while the employee is, or was serving, at our request in such capacity. During 2003, we incurred approximately $1.7 million of expense for legal fees and expenses incurred by current and former employees covered under such indemnification agreements during 2003.

 

9.    Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) and Loss Per Common Share

 

Stock Rights Plan.    On January 17, 2002, our Board of Directors approved adoption of a stockholder rights plan and declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of common stock. Stockholders of record on January 28, 2002 received, for each share of common stock then owned, one right to purchase a unit of one one-thousandth of a share of Series A junior participating preferred stock at a price of $75.00 per unit. The rights, which expire on January 17, 2012, will only become exercisable upon distribution. Distribution of the rights will not occur until ten days after the earlier of (i) the public announcement that a person or group has acquired beneficial ownership of 15.0% or more of our outstanding common stock or (ii) the commencement of, or announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person or group acquiring the beneficial ownership of 15.0% or more of our outstanding common stock.

 

The purchase price payable, and the number of units of Series A preferred stock issuable, upon exercise of the rights are subject to adjustment from time to time to prevent dilution in the event of a stock dividend or the grant of certain rights to purchase units of Series A preferred stock at a price less than the then current market price of the units of Series A preferred stock, among other things. The number of outstanding rights and the number of units of Series A preferred stock issuable upon exercise of each right are also subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split of the common stock or a stock dividend on the common stock payable in common stock prior to the distribution date.

 

Shares of Series A preferred stock purchasable upon exercise of the rights are not redeemable. Each share of Series A preferred stock will be entitled to a dividend of 1,000 times the dividend declared per share of common stock. In the event of liquidation, each share of Series A preferred stock will be entitled to a payment of the greater of (i) 1,000 times the payment made per share of common stock or (ii) $1,000. Each share of Series A preferred stock will have 1,000 votes, voting together with the common stock. Finally, in the event of any merger, consolidation or other transaction in which shares of common stock are exchanged, each share of Series A preferred stock will be entitled to receive 1,000 times the amount received per share of common stock. These rights are protected by customary anti-dilution provisions. Because of the nature of the dividend, liquidation and voting rights, the value of each unit of Series A preferred stock purchasable upon exercise of each right should approximate the value of one share of common stock.

 

If, after the rights become exercisable, we are acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction, or 50% or more of our consolidated assets or earning power are sold, proper provision will be made so that each holder of a right will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise that number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company having a market value of two times the exercise price of the right.

 

If any person or group becomes the beneficial owner of 15.0% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock, proper provision will be made so that each holder of a right, other than rights beneficially owned by the

 

F-24


Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

acquiring person (which will thereafter be void), will have the right to receive upon exercise that number of shares of common stock or units of Series A preferred stock (or cash, other securities or property) having a market value of two times the exercise price of the right.

 

We may redeem the rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.01 per right at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors at any time prior to distribution of the rights. At December 31, 2003, none of the rights had been exercisable. The terms of the rights may be amended by our Board of Directors without the consent of the holders of the rights except that after the distribution of the rights, no amendment may adversely affect the interests of the holders of the rights. Until a right is exercised, the holder of a right will have no rights by virtue of ownership as a stockholder of the company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends.

 

The rights have significant anti-takeover effects by causing substantial dilution to a person or group that attempts to acquire us on terms not approved by our Board of Directors. The rights should not interfere with any merger or other business combination approved by the Board of Directors since the rights may be redeemed us at the redemption price prior to the occurrence of a distribution date.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share.    Basic earnings (loss) per common share is based on net income (loss) divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share includes the dilutive effect of stock options, share rights awards and warrants granted using the treasury stock method, the effect of contingently issuable shares earned during the period and shares issuable under the conversion feature of our convertible notes using the if-converted method. The following is a reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 (in thousands):

 

     2003

   2002

   2001

Basic earnings per share of common stock — weighted average common shares outstanding

   433,262    428,746    414,860

Effect of dilutive securities:

              

Outstanding stock option, warrant, and share rights awards

   5,177      

Convertible debt

   16,775      
    
  
  

Diluted earnings per share — weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding

   455,214    428,746    414,860
    
  
  

 

Securities that were outstanding but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because their effect would have been antidilutive, include options to purchase 99.8 million, 108.4 million, and 133.2 million shares of common stock in 2003, 2002 and 2001 respectively, and debt convertible into 31.0 million and 11.9 million shares of common stock in 2002 and 2001, respectively.

 

10.    Employee Benefit Plans

 

Employee Retirement Plans.    We maintain 401(k) retirement plans that cover a majority of our employees. Eligible employees may contribute up to 25% of their compensation, subject to certain limitations, to the retirement plans. We may make contributions to the plans at the discretion of our Board of Directors; however, through December 31, 2003, no contributions have been made.

Deferred Compensation.    We recognized compensation expense of $1.6 million in 2003, $502,000 in 2002, and $(193,000) in 2001 from the amortization of deferred compensation related to certain outstanding stock options and stock rights awards. As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the unamortized portion of deferred compensation totalled $1.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively. These balances are netted in additional paid-in capital.

 

Employee Stock Purchase Plans.    We maintain stock purchase plans for the benefit of our employees and the employees of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. The purchase plans are designed to allow eligible employees to purchase shares of common stock through periodic payroll deductions. Payroll deductions may not exceed 15% of a participant’s base salary, and employees may purchase a maximum of 8,000 shares per purchase period under the purchase plans. The purchase price per share is 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of our common stock at the start of the purchase period or the fair market value at the end of the purchase period. Participation may be terminated at any time by the employee and automatically ends upon termination of employment. Unless extended, the plan will terminate on the last business day in April 2011.

 

Shares purchased under the plans totalled 6,230,418 in 2002 and 2,830,682 in 2001. No shares were purchased under this plan during 2003. As of December 31, 2003, there were 4,329,456 shares available for purchase under the plans. The plans have an automatic share increase feature whereby the number of shares reserved for issuance under the plans will automatically increase on the first trading day of January each year by an amount equal to 1.0% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on the last trading day in December of the immediately preceding calendar year, but in no event will any such annual increase exceed 6.0 million shares. Through December 31, 2003, we have reserved a total 18,571,063 shares of common stock for issuance under the plans. Based upon the number of shares of our common stock outstanding on December 31, 2003, an additional 4,341,331 shares will be reserved for issuance under the plans in January 2004.

 

We assumed an employee stock purchase plan maintained by Aspect as a part of our acquisition. The plan permitted eligible employees to purchase common stock at a discount, but only through payroll deductions, during 24-month offering periods. Each offering period was divided into four consecutive six-month purchase periods. The price at which stock was sold under the purchase plan was equal to 85% of the fair market value of the common stock on the first day of the offering period or the last day of the offering period, whichever is lower. We reserved 722,447 shares of our common stock for issuance under this plan. Shares purchased under this plan totalled 232,679 in 2001. This plan was terminated upon completion of the final offering period in February 2001.

 

1995 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan.    The 1995 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan, a stockholder approved stock-based compensation plan, replaced our original 1992 Stock Plan. All options outstanding under the 1992 Plan were incorporated into the 1995 Plan; however, all outstanding options under the 1992 Plan continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the existing option agreements for those grants. The 1995 Plan is divided into three equity programs: (i) the Discretionary Option Grant Program, (ii) the Stock Issuance Program and (iii) the Automatic Option Grant Program.

 

The Discretionary Option Grant Program provides for the grant of incentive stock options to employees and for the grant of nonqualified stock options to employees, directors and consultants. Exercise prices may not be less than 100% and 85% of the fair market value per share of our common stock on the date of grant for incentive options and nonqualified stock options, respectively. Options granted under this program generally expire after ten years. Prior to March 2001, options granted under the Discretionary Option Grant Program generally vested in four equal annual increments; however, since March 2001, options granted generally vest 25% on the first anniversary of the grant date with the remaining options vesting in 36 equal monthly increments. Some options

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

granted under the Discretionary Option Grant Program may be immediately exercisable, subject to a right of repurchase at the original exercise price for all unvested shares.

 

The Stock Issuance Program provides for the issuance of shares of our common stock to any person at any time, at such prices and on such terms as established by the plan administrator. The purchase price per share cannot be less than 85% of the fair market value of our common stock on the issuance date. Shares of our common stock may also be issued pursuant to share right awards that entitle the recipients to receive those shares upon the attainment of designated performance goals or the satisfaction of specified service requirements.

 

The Automatic Option Grant Program provides that each person who is first elected or appointed as a non-employee member of our Board of Directors shall automatically be granted nonqualified options to purchase 8,000 shares of our common stock at the fair market value on the date of grant. On the date of each Annual Meeting of Stockholders, each non-employee member of the Board of Directors will automatically be granted additional options to purchase 8,000 shares of our common stock, subject to certain conditions.

 

The 1995 Plan has an automatic share increase feature whereby the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the plan will automatically increase on the first trading day of January each calendar year by an amount equal to 5.0% of the sum of (a) the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on the last trading day in December of the immediately preceding calendar year, plus (b) the total number of shares of common stock repurchased by us on the open market during the immediately preceding calendar year pursuant to a stock repurchase program. In no event shall any such annual increase exceed 40.0 million shares of common stock or such lesser number of shares of common stock as determined by our Board of Directors in its discretion. Through December 31, 2003, we have reserved a total of 294,855,316 shares of common stock for issuance under the plan. Based upon the number of shares reserved for issuance under the plan at December 31, 2003, we limited the number of additional shares to be reserved in January 2004 to 250,000. Unless extended, the plan will terminate on April 11, 2011.

 

2001 Non-officer Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan.    In March 2001, the Board of Directors adopted the 2001 Non-officer Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan. Based on the provisions of the 2001 Plan, its adoption did not require stockholder approval and accordingly such approval was not obtained. Under the provisions of this plan, 20,000,000 shares have been reserved for issuance. The 2001 Plan is divided into two equity programs: (i) the Discretionary Option Grant Program and (ii) the Stock Issuance Program.

 

The Discretionary Option Grant Program provides for the grant of nonqualified stock options to non-officer employees and consultants. Exercise prices may be less than, equal to, or greater than the fair market value per share of our common stock on the date of grant. Options granted under this program generally expire after ten years and generally vest 25% on the first anniversary of the grant date with the remaining options vesting in 36 equal monthly increments. Some options granted under this program may be immediately exercisable, subject to a right of repurchase at the original exercise price for all unvested shares.

 

The Stock Issuance Program provides for the issuance of shares of our common stock to non-officer employees and consultants at any time, at such prices and on such terms as established by the plan administrator. Shares of our common stock may also be issued pursuant to share right awards that entitle the recipients to receive those shares upon the attainment of designated performance goals or the satisfaction of specified service requirements.

 

Assumed Stock Option Plans.    In connection with the acquisitions of various companies, we have assumed the stock option plans of each acquired company. While our stockholders approved some of the acquisitions, our

stockholders have not specifically approved any of the assumed stock option plans. A total of 38.2 million shares of our common stock have been reserved for issuance under the assumed plans and the related options are included in the following table.

Stock-based compensation awards issued under the 1995 and 2001 Plans are subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances upon an acquisition of us in a merger or asset sale, except to the extent our repurchase rights with respect to the underlying shares are to be assigned to the successor corporation. In addition, the plan administrator has the discretion to accelerate vesting of outstanding options upon consummation of any other transaction that results in a change in control.

 

Included in the 110,069 stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2003 were 44,609 incentive options and 65,460 nonqualified stock options. Included in the 128,535 shares available for grant as of December 31, 2003 were 100,662 shares related to our 1995 and 2001 Plans and 27,873 shares related to assumed plans. We do not intend to grant awards from the assumed plans.

Stock Option Exchange Programs.    In March 2001, we announced a voluntary stock option exchange program for the benefit of our employees. Under the program, our employees were offered the opportunity, if they so elected by April 15, 2001, to cancel certain outstanding stock options previously granted to them for new stock options to be granted no earlier than October 16, 2001. Our employees elected to voluntarily cancel 39.3 million stock options in connection with this program. On October 17, 2001, we completed our voluntary stock option exchange program and we granted 38.2 million new stock options to participating employees with an exercise price of $4.29 per share, which was the closing sales price of our common stock on that day as reported by the NASDAQ National Market. Under the terms of the program, participating employees received 1.1 new stock options for each stock option cancelled. The exchange program was organized to comply with applicable

accounting standards then effective and, accordingly, no compensation charges related to this program were recognized. Members of our Board of Directors, executive officers and various other members of our senior management team were not eligible to participate in this program.

 

In December 2002, we announced a voluntary stock option exchange program for the benefit of our employees. Under the program, our employees were initially offered the opportunity, if they so elected by January 29, 2003, to cancel certain outstanding stock options previously granted to them for new stock options to be granted no earlier than July 30, 2003. The exchange program was terminated in January 2003 following our decision to have our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 re-audited.

 

Cash Compensation for Stock Options Program.    In October 2001, we announced a voluntary “cash compensation for stock options” program whereby employees were given the opportunity to elect, by November 15, 2001, to receive a reduction in annual base salary for a twelve-month period starting on November 16, 2001 in exchange for stock options. The options were granted on November 16, 2001 and on December 21, 2001. The options were to vest in 24 equal monthly increments from the grant date. The program was organized to comply with applicable accounting standards then effective and, accordingly, no compensation charges related to this program were recognized.

 

In July 2002, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the acceleration of the vesting of options granted under this program. Effective July 23, 2002, all unvested options issued under this program were immediately vested. No compensation charge was recognized in connection with the acceleration of vesting because the fair market value of our stock on the modification date was less than the exercise price of the modified options.

 

11.    Restructuring Charges and Adjustments

 

2002 Restructuring Plan.    In July 2002, we initiated a global restructuring plan to further reduce our operating expenses and to bring them into alignment with our revenue levels. Overall expense reductions were necessary to both lower our existing cost structure and to realign and reallocate our resources in a manner commensurate with our new operating plan. Declining revenues, gross margins, losses and other performance measures such as revenue per employee during 2002 precipitated the restructuring plan. The plan included the elimination of certain employee positions and the reduction of office space and related overhead expenses. The restructuring charges recorded in the third and fourth quarters primarily consisted of severance and termination costs for the involuntarily terminated employees and office closure costs. The majority of the restructuring activity related to the 2002 restructuring charges occurred during 2002 and the remaining actions, such as additional office closures and consolidations and asset disposals, were completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2003. During 2002, we recorded restructuring charges totalling $111.9 million. Of this amount, $56.8 million related to employee severance and termination, $35.2 million related to office closure and consolidation and $19.9 million related to asset disposal losses.

 

2001 Restructuring Plan.    During 2001, we implemented a global restructuring plan to reduce our operating expenses with a goal of improving our financial position. The restructuring plan was initiated in response to poor economic conditions during 2001, which led to increasing net losses, declining gross margins and other performance measures such as revenue per employee. The restructuring plan encompassed terminating employees and reducing office space and related overhead expenses. Charges related to the restructuring plan primarily consisted of severance and termination costs for the involuntarily terminated employees and office closure costs. The majority of the restructuring activity occurred during 2001, with the remaining actions,

including closing and consolidating identified offices, completed in 2002. During 2001, we recorded restructuring charges totalling $113.3 million. Of this amount, $60.7 million related to employee severance and termination, $41.6 million related to office closure and consolidation and $11.0 million related to asset disposal losses.

In May 2003, we entered into a lease termination agreement with the owner of one of our headquarter buildings that we vacated in January 2003 as part of our restructuring plan. This lease, originally scheduled to expire in 2011, would have required us to pay approximately $43.4 million through the lease’s original date of termination. In consideration for the early termination of the lease, we paid approximately $7.6 million in cash and issued a $6.8 million non-negotiable promissory note due and payable on December 15, 2006. The note bears interest at a rate of 5.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears. Upon executing this agreement in the second quarter of 2003, the remaining restructuring accrual of $12.4 million was utilized and an additional charge of $2.0 million was recorded as a general and administrative expense.

 

During the third quarter of 2003 we made a decision to negotiate the termination of a facility lease in Europe that had previously been shut-down as part of our 2001 restructuring. Additionally, we reviewed our remaining accrual for all leased facilities that were affected by our 2001 and 2002 restructurings. We determined that the remaining accrual was not sufficient to cover our future estimated net cash outflows related to these obligations due to changes in our estimates of sub-lease receivables and facility overhead costs. These activities resulted in a $5.4 million increase to our restructuring accrual as of September 30, 2003.

 

Our accrual for future payments to be made related to facilities that we have exited has been reduced by estimated sublease income of $11.7 million.

 

12.    Foreign Currency Risk Management

 

Because we conduct business on a global basis in various foreign currencies, we are exposed to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. We maintain a foreign currency hedging program utilizing foreign currency forward contracts to hedge selected nonfunctional currency exposures. The objective of this program is to reduce the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on our results of operations. Furthermore, our goal is to offset foreign currency transaction gains and losses recorded for accounting purposes with gains and losses realized on the forward contracts.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

We generally enter into forward contracts to purchase or sell various foreign currencies as of the last day of each month. These forward contracts generally have original maturities of one month and are net-settled in U.S. Dollars. Each forward contract is based on the current market forward exchange rate as of the contract date and no premiums are paid or received. Accordingly, these forward contracts have no fair value as of the contract date. Changes in the applicable foreign currency exchange rates subsequent to the contract date cause the fair value of the forward contracts to change. These changes in the fair value of forward contracts are recorded through earnings and the corresponding assets or liabilities are recorded on our balance sheet. Gains and losses on the forward contracts are included as a component of non-operating income (expense) in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and offset foreign exchange gains and losses from the revaluation of intercompany balances or other current monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the reporting entity. During 2003, we recognized net losses of $6.1 million on foreign currency forward contracts and net gains of $5.7 million on foreign currency transactions. During 2002, we recognized net losses of $2.4 million on foreign currency forward contracts and net gains of $0.2 million on foreign currency transactions. During 2001, we recognized net gains of $0.2 million on foreign currency forward contracts and net losses of $3.0 million on foreign currency transactions.

 

Details of our foreign currency forward contracts as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 are presented in the following table (in thousands). All of these contracts were originated, without premiums, on December 31, 2003 and 2002 based on market forward exchange rates. Accordingly, these forward contracts had no fair value on December 31, 2003 and 2002 and no amounts related to these forward contracts were recorded in our financial statements.

Our foreign currency forward contracts include credit risk to the extent that the bank counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of agreements. We reduce such risk by limiting our counterparties to major financial institutions. Additionally, the potential risk of loss with any one party resulting from this type of credit risk is monitored.

We consider the earnings of foreign subsidiaries to be permanently reinvested outside the U.S. and, accordingly, no U.S. income tax on these earnings has been provided. Aggregate unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries, for which U.S. income taxes have not been provided, totaled $39.7 million and $54.1 million as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

 

At December 31, 2003 and 2002, we had $1.6 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, of U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards and $11.7 million and $12.9 million, respectively, of U.S. federal research and development carryforwards. The U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards expire in the years 2006 through 2023 and are subject to certain annual limitations. The U.S. federal research and development carryforwards expire in the years 2005 through 2023. We had $8.4 million and $27.0 million of foreign net operating loss carryforwards at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Foreign net operating loss carryforwards totaling $1.8 million at December 31, 2003 have no expiration date, while the remaining $6.6 million expire in the years 2007 through 2009.

 

Because we did not believe we would earn sufficient taxable income to utilize all of the deferred tax assets, during the second quarter of 2002, we recorded a valuation allowance for all of our remaining deferred tax assets. This resulted in a $887.3 million charge to income tax expense in 2002. We adjust our deferred tax valuation allowance in light of certain factors, including our financial performance. Failure to achieve sustained profitability may prevent us from utilizing these assets in their entirety, and because of the uncertainty of our return to profitability, we concluded a valuation allowance for all of our remaining deferred tax assets was necessary as of December 31, 2003. As of December 31, 2002, we still have a valuation allowance for all of our remaining deferred tax assets. Despite the valuation allowance, these deferred tax assets and the future tax-deductible benefits related to these deferred tax assets will remain available to offset future taxable income over the remaining useful lives of the underlying deferred tax assets.

 

We paid income taxes of $4.9 million in 2003, $12.3 million in 2002 and $5.6 million in 2001.

14.    Segment Information, International Operations and Customer Concentrations

 

We operate our business in one segment, supply chain management solutions designed to help enterprises optimize business processes both internally and among trading partners. SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” establishes standards for the reporting of information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, who is our Chief Executive Officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

 

We market our software and services primarily through our worldwide sales organization augmented by other service providers, including both domestic and international systems consulting and integration firms and other industry-related partners. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates resource allocation decisions and our performance based on financial information, presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information by geographic regions. Sales to our customers generally include products from some or all of our product suites. We have not consistently allocated revenues from such sales to individual products for internal or general-purpose financial statements.

 

Revenues are attributable to regions based on the locations of the customers’ operations. Total revenues by geographic region, as reported to our chief operating decision maker, were as follows:

 

     2003

   2002

   2001

United States

   $ 328,629    $ 593,610    $ 539,352
