Notes to Condensed Financial Statements – Unaudited

July 31, 2004

 

A. Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), we have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. You should review these financial statements in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004, as filed with the SEC. The financial information we present in the condensed financial statements reflects all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in our opinion, necessary for a fair presentation of the period indicated. This information is not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or for any other future period.

 

We are an approximately 86% owned subsidiary of American Software, Inc., a publicly held provider of enterprise resource planning and supply chain management software solutions (NASDAQ – AMSWA).

 

B. Industry Segments

 

We have adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. We operate and manage our business in one segment, providing business-to-business collaborative commerce solutions to optimize supply chain operations for manufacturers, distributors and retailers.

 

C. Comprehensive Income

 

We have adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of financial statements. We have not included statements of comprehensive income in the accompanying condensed financial statements since comprehensive income and net earnings presented in the accompanying condensed statements of operations would be substantially the same.

 

D. Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, and SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions.

 

License. We recognize license revenue in connection with license agreements for standard proprietary software upon delivery of the software, provided that we consider collection to be probable, the fee is fixed or determinable, there is evidence of an arrangement, and vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) exists with respect to any undelivered elements of the arrangement. For multiple-element arrangements, we recognize revenue under the residual method as permitted by SOP 98-9, whereby (1) we defer the total fair value of the undelivered elements, as indicated by VSOE, and subsequently recognize the value of these elements in accordance with SOP 97-2 and (2) we recognize the difference between the total arrangement fee and the deferred amount as revenue related to the delivered elements.

Services and Other. Revenue derived from services and other primarily includes revenues from consulting, implementation, and training. We bill under both time and materials and fixed fee arrangements and recognize revenues as we perform the services. We classify the reimbursements that we receive for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with consulting, implementation, and training services as revenue in our statements of operations.

 

Maintenance. Revenue derived from maintenance contracts primarily includes telephone consulting, product updates, and releases of new versions of products previously purchased by the customer, as well as error reporting and correction services. Typically, we enter into maintenance contracts for a separate fee, with initial contractual periods ranging from one to three years, and with renewal provisions for additional periods thereafter.

 

We generally bill maintenance fees annually in advance. We recognize maintenance revenue ratably over the term of the maintenance agreement. In situations where we bundle all or a portion of the maintenance fee with the license fee, we determine VSOE for maintenance based on prices that apply when we sell maintenance separately.

 

Indirect Channel Revenue. We recognize a sale that we make through indirect channels when the distributor makes the sale to an end-user, or upon delivery to the reseller, when the license fee is fixed and determinable, the license fee is nonrefundable, and all other conditions of SOP 97-2 and SOP 98-9 are met.

 

Deferred Revenue. Deferred revenue represents advance payments or billings for software licenses, services, and maintenance billed in advance of the time revenue is recognized.

 

E. Major Customer

 

No single customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues in the quarters ended July 31, 2004 and July 31, 2003.

 

F. Net Earnings Per Common Share

 

Basic net earnings per common share available to common shareholders is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. We base diluted net earnings per common share available to common shareholders on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares, such as dilutive stock options.

The numerator in calculating both basic and diluted net earnings per common share for each period is the same as net earnings. The denominator is based on the following number of common shares:

 

     Three Months ended
July 31,


     2004

   2003

     (in thousands)

Common Shares:

             

Weighted average common shares outstanding

     13,092      13,134

Dilutive effect of outstanding stock options

     206      185
    

  

Total

     13,298      13,319
    

  

Net earnings:

   $ 377    $ 370
    

  

Net earnings per common share:

             

Basic

   $ 0.03    $ 0.03
    

  

Diluted

   $ 0.03    $ 0.03
    

  

 

For the three months ended July 31, 2004, we excluded options to purchase 144,690 shares of common stock from the computation of diluted earnings per share, and for the three months ended July 31, 2003, we excluded options to purchase 130,523 shares of common stock from that computation. We excluded these option share amounts because the exercise prices of those options were greater than the average market price of the common stock during the applicable period. As of July 31, 2004, we had a total of 883,811 options outstanding and as of July 31, 2003, we had a total of 760,899 options outstanding.

 

G. Stock Compensation Plans

 

As permitted under SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transaction and Disclosure, which amended SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, we have elected to continue to follow the intrinsic-value-based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations including Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation, an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25, to account for our fixed-plan stock options. Under this method, we record compensation expense on the date of grant generally if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in operations, as all options granted under those plans have an exercise price equal to or above the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

H. Agreements with American Software, Inc. (“ASI”)

 

We have entered into certain contractual arrangements with ASI, as described below. Because ASI owns a majority of our shares, the terms of these agreements do not reflect arm’s length negotiation. However, management believes that the rates negotiated in the agreements reflect fair market values.

 

Tax Sharing AgreementIn 1997, we entered into a Tax Sharing Agreement with ASI (the “Tax Sharing Agreement”). Under this Agreement, we will determine with ASI the amount of taxes that we will pay, subject to certain adjustments, as if we were to file separate federal, state, and local income tax returns, rather than as a consolidated subsidiary of ASI. Pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement, we compute a separate, stand-alone income tax provision and settle balances due to or from ASI on this basis. The Tax Sharing Agreement allocated to ASI all benefits derived from deferred tax assets as defined in the Tax Sharing Agreement (which include net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards) that arose prior to our October 1997 initial public offering ($5,768,000). Accordingly, we will not receive any benefit from the $5,768,000 of contributed gross deferred tax assets. In addition, the Tax Sharing Agreement allocates to us certain deferred tax liabilities that arose prior to the initial public offering. To the extent the tax computation produces a tax benefit for us, ASI is required to pay such amounts to us only if and when ASI realizes a reduction in income taxes payable with respect to the current tax period. At April 30, 2004, ASI had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $12 million that ASI must utilize before we would receive payment for any currently generated tax benefits. Such net operating losses expire in varying amounts through 2022.

Services Agreement—We purchase or sell various services from or to ASI based upon various cost methodologies as described below:

•      General corporate services, including accounting and insurance expense

   Apportioned based on formula to all ASI subsidiaries    $ 237,000    $ 277,000

•      Professional services to our customers (services are available unless ASI determines it is not economic or otherwise feasible)

   Cost plus billing with the percentage of costs and expenses to be negotiated      27,000      9,000

•      Employee benefits services

   Apportioned based on formula to all ASI subsidiaries      3,000      3,000

 

The Services Agreement had an initial term of three years and is renewed automatically thereafter for successive one-year terms unless either party elects not to renew. The Services Agreement has been renewed annually since the initial term. We will indemnify ASI against any damages that ASI may incur in connection with its performance of services under the Services Agreement (other than those arising from its gross negligence or willful misconduct), and ASI will indemnify us against any damages arising out of its gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with ASI’s rendering of services under the Services Agreement.

 

Facilities Agreement—We lease various properties from ASI for specified square foot rates pursuant to a Facilities Agreement dated August 1, 1997, which the parties have renewed automatically annually since the initial two-year term. The stated term of the agreement is for two years with automatic one year extensions; however, either party may terminate the agreement after a 90 day notice. ASI also allocates utilities, telephone and security expenses under this agreement based on our percentage of occupancy. Our lease of space at any facility under the agreement is limited by the term of the underlying lease between ASI and a landlord with respect to any facility leased by ASI and is subject to the disposition by ASI of any facility that ASI owns. The parties valued the services related to this agreement at $116,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2004 and the three months ended July 31, 2003.

 

Marketing License Agreement—Effective August 1, 2002, we entered into a Marketing License Agreement (the “Marketing License Agreement”) with American Software, USA (“USA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ASI, in which USA agreed to act as a nonexclusive marketing representative for licensing of our products. The Marketing License Agreement provided that we pay USA 30% of net license fees collected by us for its services. The parties have had similar agreements in effect since 1997. The Marketing License Agreement expired July 31, 2003 and has not been extended.

 

Technology License Agreement—We have granted ASI a nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide right and license to use, execute, reproduce, display, modify and prepare derivatives of our Supply Chain Planning and Execution Solutions, which we call the Logility Voyager Solutions product line (which ASI had transferred to us), so that ASI may maintain and support end-users of the software products and for no other purpose. The license is

fully paid and royalty-free. Pursuant to this Agreement, the parties disclose to one another any enhancements and improvements that they may make or acquire in relation to a Logility Voyager Solutions product, subject to third-party confidentiality requirements. The term of this Agreement is indefinite, although we may terminate the Agreement for cause, and ASI may terminate it at any time upon 60 days’ prior written notice to us. Upon termination of this Agreement, all rights to Logility Voyager Solutions products that we license to ASI revert to us, while all rights to enhancements and improvements ASI make to Logility Voyager Solutions products revert to ASI.

 

Stock Option Agreement—We have granted ASI an option to purchase that number of shares of our common stock that would enable ASI to maintain the 80% ownership percentage required to consolidate Logility in ASI’s consolidated Federal income tax return. The purchase price of the option is the average of the closing price on each of the five business days immediately preceding the date of payment.

 

I. Lease Commitments

 

We occupy our principal office facilities under a facilities agreement with ASI dated August 1, 1997, that is cancelable upon 90-day notice by either party (see note “G”). Amounts allocated to the Company for rent expense for these facilities were $82,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2004 and the three months ended July 31, 2003. The Facilities Agreement, summarized above, is the basis for the calculation of these amounts. In addition, we have various other operating and facilities leases. Expense under these operating and facilities leases was $129,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2004, and $162,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2003.

 

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

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements relating to our future financial performance, business strategy, financing plans and other future events that involve uncertainties and risks. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “anticipate”, “intend”, “plan”, “continue”, “could”, “grow”, “may”, “potential”, “predict”, “strive”, “will”, “seek”, “estimate”, “believe”, “expect”, and similar expressions that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Any forward-looking statements we make herein are pursuant to the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning future:

 

  results of operations;

 

  liquidity, cash flow and capital expenditures;

 

  demand for and pricing of our products and services;

 

  acquisition activities and the effect of completed acquisitions;

 

  industry conditions and market conditions; and

 

  general economic conditions.

 

Although we believe that the goals, plans, expectations, and prospects that our forward-looking statements reflect are reasonable in view of the information currently available to us, those statements are not guarantees of performance. There are many factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by forward-looking statements made herein. These factors include, but are not limited to, continuing economic uncertainty, the timing and degree of business recovery, unpredictability and the irregular pattern of future revenues, competitive pressures, delays and other risks associated with new product development, the

difficulty of predicting the effectiveness and duration of third-party marketing agreements, undetected software errors, and risks associated with market acceptance of our products and services. The terms “fiscal 2005” and “fiscal 2004” refer to our fiscal years ending April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

 

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

We provide collaborative supply chain solutions to help streamline and optimize the management, production and distribution of products between manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, retailers, carriers and other organizations and their respective trading partners. The supply chain refers to the complex network of relationships that organizations maintain with trading partners (customers, suppliers and carriers) to source, manufacture, and deliver products and services to the customer and includes demand chain, supply chain, logistics, warehouse management and business-to-business process management for collaborative relationships between customers, suppliers and carriers. Our solutions help enterprises build competitive advantages and increase profitability by significantly reducing costs, increasing revenues, improving operational efficiencies and collaborating with suppliers and customers to more effectively respond to dynamic market conditions.

 

We derive revenues primarily from three sources: software licenses, services and other, and maintenance. We generally determine software license fees based on the number of modules, servers, users and/or sites licensed. Services and other revenues consist primarily of fees from software implementation, training, consulting and customization services. We bill under both time and materials and fixed fee arrangements and recognize revenues as we perform services. Maintenance agreements typically are for a one- to three-year term and usually are entered into at the time of the initial product license. We generally bill maintenance fees annually in advance under agreements with terms of one to three years, and then recognize the resulting revenues ratably over the term of the maintenance agreement. Deferred revenues represent advance payments or billings for software licenses, services and maintenance billed in advance of the time we recognize the related revenues.

 

Our cost of revenue for licenses includes amortization of capitalized computer software development costs, salaries and benefits, and royalties paid to third-party software vendors. Costs for maintenance and services include the cost of personnel to conduct implementations and customer support, consulting, and other personnel-related expenses.

 

Our selling expenses generally include the salary and commissions paid to our sales professionals, along with marketing, promotional, travel and associated costs. Our general and administrative expenses generally include the salary and benefits paid to executive, corporate and support personnel, as well as office rent, utilities, communications expenses, and various professional fees.

 

We currently view the following factors as the primary opportunities and risks associated with our business:

 

  The opportunity to expand the depth and number of strategic relationships with leading enterprise software, systems integrators and service providers to integrate the Logility Voyager Solutions suite into their services and products and to create joint marketing opportunities; we currently have a number of marketing alliances, including those with IBM and SSA Global Technologies;

 

  The opportunity for select acquisitions or investments to provide opportunities to expand our sales distribution channels and/or broaden our product offering by providing additional solutions for our target markets;

 

  Our dependence on, and the risks associated with, the capital spending patterns of U.S. and international businesses, which in turn are functions of economic trends and conditions over which we have no control;

 

12


Table of Contents
  The risk that our competitors may develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our technology; and

 

  The risks inherent in the market for business application software and related services, which has been and continues to be intensely competitive; for example, some of our competitors may become more aggressive with their prices and/or payment terms, which may adversely affect our profit margins.

 

A discussion of a number of additional risk factors associated with our business is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004.

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Corporate capital spending trends and commitments are the primary determinants of the size of the market for business software. Corporate capital spending is, in turn, a function of general economic conditions in the U.S. and abroad. In recent years, the weakness in the overall world economy, and the U.S. economy in particular, has resulted in reduced expenditures in the business software market. As a result of these economic conditions, as well as increased competition in the business application area, we restructured our business in the first half of fiscal 2001 in order to become profitable. Our restructuring consisted of changes in sales management, a redirection of marketing efforts, and general reductions in expenditure levels across all functional areas. Primarily as a result of this restructuring, we have recorded positive operating and net earnings for thirteen out of the past fourteen consecutive quarters.

 

We believe that the overall world economy, the U.S. economy, and the economic environment for business software spending appear to be improving slightly. Although this improvement could slow or regress at any time, we believe that our organizational and financial structure will enable us to take advantage of any sustained economic rebound, and to better withstand any further tightening in capital spending. While our sales pipelines are improving slightly, customers continue to take longer to evaluate discretionary software purchases than generally was the case prior to the economic downturn.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2004 AND 2003:

 

REVENUES:

 

For the quarter ended July 31, 2004, the increase in revenues from the quarter ended July 31, 2003 was attributable to an increase in license fee revenues, partially offset by decreases in services and other and maintenance revenues. International revenues represented approximately 10% of total revenues in the quarter ended July 31, 2004, compared to approximately 9% in the same period a year ago. Our international revenues may fluctuate substantially from period to period primarily because we derive these revenues from a relatively small number of customers in a given period. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues in the quarters ended July 31, 2004 and July 31, 2003.

 

LICENSES. The increase in license fees in the quarter ended July 31, 2004 was primarily the result of increased sales effectiveness. The direct sales channel provided approximately 90% of license fee revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 2004, compared to approximately 81% in the comparable quarter a year ago. This decrease was due primarily to decreased sales from the indirect channel. For the quarter ended July 31, 2004, our margins after commissions on direct sales were approximately 90%, and our margins after commissions on indirect sales were approximately 50%.

 

SERVICES AND OTHER. The decrease in services and other revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 2004 was primarily the result of lower software implementation services related to decreased license fees in recent periods. We have observed that there is a tendency for services and other revenues to lag changes in license revenues by one to three quarters, as new licenses in one quarter often involve implementation and consulting services in subsequent quarters, for which we recognize revenues only as we perform those services.

 

MAINTENANCE. The decrease in maintenance revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 2004 was due to lower license fees in recent quarters. Typically, our maintenance revenues have had a direct relationship to current and historic license fee revenues, since new licenses are the potential source of new maintenance customers.

 

GROSS MARGIN:

 

The following table provides both dollar amounts and percentage measures of gross margin:

Total gross margin:

   $ 3,469    64 %   $ 3,263    61 %
    

        

      

 

For the quarter ended July 31, 2004, the increase in total gross margin percentage was due to an increase in license fee gross margin percentage, partially offset by a decrease in gross margin percentage on services and other revenues.

 

15


Table of Contents

LICENSES. The increase in gross margin percentage on license fees for the quarter ended July 31, 2004 was due primarily to higher license fee revenues, and to a lesser extent decreased expense related to amortization of capitalized software development costs. License fee gross margin normally is directly related to the level of license fee revenues due to the relatively fixed amortization level of computer software development expense, which is the primary component of cost of license fees.

 

SERVICES AND OTHER. For the quarter ended July 31, 2004, the decrease in services and other gross margin percentage was due primarily to the decrease in services and other revenues. Services and other gross margin normally is directly related to the level of services and other revenues. The primary component of cost of services and other revenues is services staffing, which is relatively fixed in the short term.

 

MAINTENANCE. For the quarter ended July 31, 2004, maintenance gross margin percentage was relatively unchanged, as we were able to adjust our maintenance costs to closely match our maintenance revenues.

 

EXPENSES:

 

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Gross product research and development costs include all non-capitalized and capitalized software development costs. A breakdown of the research and development costs is as follows:

Product research and development expenses

   $ 661     17 %   $ 563  

Percentage of total revenues

     12 %           10 %

 

For the quarter ended July 31, 2004, capitalized software development costs decreased at a higher rate than gross product research and development costs, when compared to the prior year period. We typically capitalize higher levels of development costs towards the end of the development phase of a large project. In the quarter ended July 31, 2003, we ended the development phase of Logility Voyager Solutions 7.0, which caused an increase in capitalized development costs during that period. Due to the ending of this development phase, we expect capitalized development costs to show a decreasing trend in coming quarters, when compared to the prior year periods.

 

SALES AND MARKETING. For the quarter ended July 31, 2004, sales and marketing expenses increased 15% from the same period a year ago, to approximately $1.9 million, due primarily to increased sales commissions related to the increase in license fees, and to a lesser extent increased marketing expenditures related to trade show activities.

 

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. For the quarter ended July 31, 2004, the decrease in general and

 

16


Table of Contents

administrative expenses was due primarily to reductions in employee headcount. For the three months ended July 31, 2004, the average number of total employees was approximately 111, compared to approximately 127 for the three months ended July 31, 2003.

 

OTHER INCOME:

 

Other income is comprised of earnings from the investment of our cash reserves. Our investments are short-term in nature, and generally mature within one year. Investments consist of money market funds, U.S. Government Securities, A1/P1 rated commercial paper, and minimum A- rated corporate bonds. For the three months ended July 31, 2004, as well as the three months ended July 31, 2003, these investments generated an annualized yield of approximately 1.2%. In the quarter ended July 31, 2004, compared to the quarter ended July 31, 2003, other income increased while interest rates remained relatively level due to higher bond amortization expense in the prior year period.

 

INCOME TAXES:

 

We are included in the consolidated federal income tax return filed by American Software, Inc. However, we provide for income taxes as if we were filing a separate income tax return. For the quarters ended July 31, 2004 and July 31, 2003, we did not record any income taxes, as a result of cumulative net operating losses in prior years.

 

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

Sources and Uses of Cash

 

We have historically funded, and continue to fund, our operations and capital expenditures primarily with cash generated from operating activities. The changes in net cash that operating activities provide generally reflect changes in our net earnings and non-cash operating items plus the effect of changes in our operating assets and liabilities, such as trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and deferred revenue. We have no debt obligations or off-balance sheet financing arrangements, and therefore we use no cash for debt service purposes.

 

The following tables show summary information about our cash flows and liquidity positions during the quarters ended July 31, 2004 and July 31, 2003. You should read this table and the discussion that follows in conjunction with our condensed statements of cash flows contained in “Item 1. Financial Statements” in Part I of this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004.

For the quarter ended July 31, 2004, the increase in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to a decrease in accounts receivable, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable, accrued costs and other liabilities. The decrease in accounts receivable was attributable to better collection efforts. The increase in cash

used in investing activities when compared to the prior year period was due primarily to increased purchases of short-term investments. Cash used in financing activities increased when compared to the prior year period, due primarily to increased repurchases of our common stock.

 

The following table shows net changes in total cash, cash equivalents, and investments, which is one measure management uses to view net total cash generated by our activities:

   $ 31,476    $ 26,543  
    

  


Net change in total cash and investments (three months ended July 31)

   $ 645    $ (470 )

 

The change in total cash generated for the three months ended July 31, 2004 when compared to cash used in the prior year period was due primarily to the changes in operating assets and liabilities noted above.

 

Days Sales Outstanding in accounts receivable were 52 days as of July 31, 2004, compared to 98 days as of July 31, 2003. This decrease was due primarily to better collection efforts. Our current ratio on July 31, 2004 was 3.7 to 1, compared to 3.5 to 1 on April 30, 2004. This decrease was due primarily to the decrease in accounts receivable.

 

As a result of the positive cash flow from operations our business has generated in recent periods, and because we have $31.5 million in cash and investments with no debt, we believe that our sources of liquidity and capital resources will be sufficient to satisfy our presently anticipated requirements during at least the next twelve months for working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate needs. However, due to the uncertainty in the recent economic environment, at some future date we may need to seek additional sources of capital to meet our requirements. If such need arises, we may be required to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing. Neither we nor American Software currently have a bank line of credit. We can provide no assurance that bank lines of credit or other financing will be available on terms acceptable to us. If available, such financing may result in dilution to our shareholders or higher interest expense.

 

In November 1998, our Board of Directors approved a resolution authorizing us to repurchase up to 800,000 shares of our common stock through open market purchases at prevailing market prices. In February 2003, our Board of Directors approved a resolution authorizing us to repurchase an additional 400,000 shares for a total current authorized repurchase amount of 1,200,000 shares. The timing of any repurchases would depend on market conditions, the market price of our common stock and management’s assessment of our liquidity and cash flow needs. For these current repurchase plans, through September 7, 2004, we repurchased a cumulative total of 542,590 shares at a total cost of approximately $2.2 million. In the first quarter of fiscal 2005, we purchased 36,950 shares of our common stock at an average price of $4.51 per share. See Part II, Item 2 for a table summarizing stock repurchases in the last quarter, and the number of remaining shares available for purchase under existing repurchase programs.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

There have been no recent accounting pronouncements applicable to the Company beyond those we reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004, as filed with the SEC.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting policies are those policies that are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, and they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004, as filed with the SEC, we described the policies and estimates relating to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of long-lived and intangible assets, and income taxes as our critical accounting policies, and since then, we have made no changes to our reported critical accounting policies.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Foreign Currency. For the quarter ended July 31, 2004, we generated approximately 10% of our revenues outside the United States. We usually make international sales directly through our foreign operations or through value added resellers. We typically denominate these sales in U.S. Dollars, British Pounds Sterling, or Euros. However, we denominate the expenses that we incur in our foreign operations in the local currency. The effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on us during the quarter ended July 31, 2004 was not material. We have not engaged in any hedging activities.

 

Interest rates. We have no debt, so we have limited our discussion of interest rate risk to risks associated with our investment portfolio. We manage our interest rate risk by maintaining an investment portfolio of held-to-maturity instruments with high credit quality and relatively short average maturities. These instruments include, but are not limited to, money-market instruments, bank time deposits, and taxable and tax-advantaged variable rate and fixed rate obligations of corporations, municipalities, and national, state, and local government agencies, in accordance with our investment policy. These instruments are denominated in U.S. Dollars. The fair market value and carrying value of securities held at July 31, 2004 were both approximately $31.5 million.

 

We also hold cash balances in accounts with commercial banks in the United States and foreign countries. These cash balances represent operating balances only and are invested in short-term time deposits of a local bank. The operating cash balances we hold at banks outside the United States are minor and denominated in the local currency.

 

Many of our investments carry a degree of interest rate risk. When interest rates fall, our income from investments in variable-rate securities declines. When interest rates rise, the fair market value of our investments in fixed-rate securities declines. Should our liquidity needs force us to sell fixed-rate securities prior to maturity, we may experience a loss of principal. We attempt to limit our exposure to the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations by holding fixed-rate securities to maturity and by limiting our investments to those with relatively short maturities. Accordingly, we believe that fluctuations in interest rates will not have a material affect on our financial condition or results of operations.
