EXPLANATORY NOTE

On September 14, 2009, the audit committee of the board of directors of Websense, Inc. (the “Company,” sometimes referred to as “we”, “us” or “our”), upon the identification by and recommendation of management, concluded that the previously issued financial statements contained in our annual reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2008, June 30, 2008, September 30, 2008, March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009 should no longer be relied upon because of errors in those financial statements, and that we would restate these financial statements to make the necessary accounting corrections.

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 is being filed to restate our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 (including restated financial information as of and for the interim periods contained therein) previously included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 (the “Original Form 10-K”).

The restatement relates to an error in the method of recognizing royalty revenue relating to contracts with original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) customers, who embed our software in their products for resale and provide services in the form of updates that primarily consist of database updates to our Web filtering products. All of these contracts were acquired in connection with the acquisition of SurfControl plc (“SurfControl”) in October 2007. The restatement also relates to an error in the income tax provision computation that resulted from a failure to eliminate a component of previously taxed income from our estimation of taxable income which caused our estimation of taxable profit to be overstated. The restated consolidated financial statements also include other adjustments that were identified but not previously recorded, as it had been determined that they were not material, either individually or in the aggregate. While none of these other adjustments were individually material, they are being made as part of the restatement process. See Notes 2 and 15 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this report for additional information. The Company also has restated its unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the interim periods ended March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009.

In connection with the restatement, management has assessed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and has included revised disclosure in this Form 10-K/A under Item 9A of Part II, “Controls and Procedures.” Management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting with respect to our misapplication of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles on revenue recognition for our OEM contracts which were acquired in connection with the acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007 and our error in our computation of our income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2008, as described under Item 9A of Part II in “Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting (Restated).” Solely as a result of these material weaknesses, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2008 and through the date of this filing. As of the date of this Form 10-K/A, we have adopted a revenue recognition methodology that management believes complies with the requirements of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and we have corrected our computational mistake on our fiscal 2008 income tax benefit. Management has taken and is taking steps, as described under Item 9A of Part II in “Management’s Remediation Initiatives,” to remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We believe that, as a result of management’s in-depth review of its accounting processes, the utilization of external resources and the additional procedures management has implemented, there are no material inaccuracies or omissions of material fact in this Form 10-K/A and, to the best of our knowledge, we believe that the consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-K/A fairly present in all material aspects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Except in the case of Item 1 of Part I, the Company has amended and restated in its entirety each item of the Original Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 27, 2009 (the “Original Filing Date”) that required a change to reflect this restatement and to include certain additional information. These items include Item 1A of Part I and Items 6, 7, 8 and 9A of Part II. The Company has


Table of Contents

amended and restated the subsections of Item 1 of Part I entitled “Customers” and “Sales, Marketing and Distribution.” No other information included in the Original Form 10-K is amended hereby.

Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this Amendment contains only the items and exhibits to the Original Form 10-K that are being amended and restated, and those unaffected items or exhibits are not included herein. Except as stated above, this Amendment speaks only as of the Original Filing Date, and this filing has not been updated to reflect any events occurring after the Original Filing Date or to modify or update disclosures affected by other subsequent events. In particular, forward-looking statements included in this Amendment represent management’s views as of the Original Filing Date. Such forward-looking statements should not be assumed to be accurate as of any future date. This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Company’s other filings made with the SEC subsequent to the Original Filing Date, together with any amendments to those filings.

Item 15 of Part IV of this Form 10-K/A has been amended to contain the currently-dated certifications from our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as required by Section 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Ernst & Young LLP has dual dated their reports on the consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting to the board of directors and stockholders with regard to the effects on the consolidated financial statements of the restatement as described in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements and the material weaknesses described previously and updated their consent to the date of this filing.

Item 1. Business

Customers

Our customers range from companies with as few as 10 employees to members of the Global 1,000 and to government agencies and educational institutions. In total, these customers have subscribed to approximately 44 million seats as of December 31, 2008. Ingram Micro, our broad-line distributor for North America, accounted for approximately 23% and 12% of our revenue during 2008 and 2007, respectively. Ingram Micro sold subscriptions through approximately 1,300 resellers in North America in 2008.

Sales, Marketing and Distribution

Sales. Our sales strategy is to increase sales to new customers and increase subscription renewals and other sales to existing customers by increasing the number and productivity of the resellers and distributors that sell our products. We sell our products and services primarily through indirect channels. For 2008, indirect channel sales comprised over 90% of total revenues. We expect our revenue in 2009 will be derived almost entirely from sales through indirect channels, including distributors and value-added resellers that sell our products to end-users.

We sell our products in North America principally through a two-tier distribution system. We sell products to our distributors and our distributors market, distribute and support our software through value added resellers. We also sell directly to resellers that specialize in security software. These resellers often build implementation services around our products, particularly our Data Security Suite offering.

Table of Contents

Internationally, we sell our products through a multi-tiered distribution network of distributors and resellers in over 100 countries, who in turn sell our products to customers located in over 150 countries.

Our channel sales efforts are coordinated worldwide through a sales team of approximately 250 individuals. Certain customers, who are typically large organizations, from time to time require that we sell directly to them.

In connection with the acquisition of SurfControl, we acquired approximately 35 arrangements with original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”) that grant the OEM customers the right to incorporate the Web filtering products into the OEM’s products for resale to end-users.

In 2008, we generated 46% of our total revenue from customers outside of the United States. Revenue generated in the United Kingdom represented approximately 15% of our total revenue. See Note 7 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further explanation of our revenue based on geography. Our current international efforts are focused on expanding our indirect sales channels in Europe, Asia/Pacific and Latin America. Our continuing reliance on sales in international markets exposes us to risks attendant to foreign sales. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Sales to customers outside the United States have accounted for a significant portion of our revenue, which exposes us to risks inherent in international sales.”

Marketing. Our marketing efforts are designed to increase recognition of Websense as a leading provider of integrated Web filtering and security, data loss prevention (“DLP”) and email and messaging security solutions; raise awareness of the potential risks associated with unmanaged use of corporate computing resources and confidential data; and generate qualified sales leads for our channel partners. We provide potential customers and channel partners with free trials of our software, typically for 30-day periods.

Our marketing activities are targeted toward business executives, including information technology professionals, chief executives, upper level management and human resources personnel. We actively manage our public relations programs, communicating directly with technology professionals and the media, in an effort to promote greater awareness of the growing problems caused by external threats, such as viruses, spyware, phishing sites, and key logging, as well as internal threats such as the loss of confidential data and employee misuse of the Internet and other computing resources at work.

Our marketing initiatives include:

 

   

joint marketing programs with our distributors to recruit additional value-added resellers and drive awareness for Websense solutions with existing resellers;

 

   

advertising online and in high-technology trade magazines, management journals and other business oriented periodicals;

 

   

participation in and sponsorship of trade shows and industry events;

 

   

providing free subscriptions to security alerts from Websense Security Labs, which inform subscribers of newly identified security threats, such as phishing sites and sites infected with spyware and malicious code;

 

   

hosting regional and international seminars, webinars, and training sessions for our sales organization and reseller partners, as well as customers and prospects;

 

   

conducting speaking engagements on topics of interest to our customers and prospects;

 

   

use of our Web properties to communicate with our indirect sales channels, and provide product and company information to interested parties; and

 

   

providing and distributing soft and hard-copy materials on our company, products, solutions, technologies, partnerships and benefits.

Ingram Micro. Through our joint marketing programs, our North American broad-line distributor, Ingram Micro, focuses its efforts on recruiting and servicing resellers focused on selling to the small and medium-sized business (“SMB”) segment, and on building awareness and demand within our existing North America channel partner base. Ingram Micro accounted for approximately 23% and 12% of our revenue during 2008 and 2007, respectively. Ingram Micro sold subscriptions through approximately 1,300 resellers in North America in 2008. Our agreement with Ingram Micro is not subject to any minimum sales obligations or obligations to market our products to its customers, the agreement is non-exclusive and either we or Ingram Micro can terminate the agreement at any time without cause.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the following information in addition to other information in this report before you decide to purchase our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below are those that we currently deem to be material and that we believe are specific to our company and our industry. In addition to these risks, our business may be subject to risks currently unknown to us. If any of these or other risks actually occur, our business may be adversely affected, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment in Websense.

Recent volatility in the world capital markets and the financial services industry may adversely impact our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

Recently, the world capital markets and the financial services industry have been experiencing a period of unprecedented volatility characterized by the bankruptcy, failure, collapse or sale of various financial institutions and an unprecedented level of intervention from governments and regulatory agencies worldwide. The recent economic crisis could cause our customers to choose shorter contract durations or to not renew their contracts at all, reducing our cash flow, and also could negatively affect our ability to maintain or expand the number of seats and/or product offerings to large customers upon renewal due to adverse developments within the customer’s organization. The volatility of currency exchange rates can also significantly affect sales of our products denominated in foreign currencies. In addition, recent events in the global financial markets may make it difficult for us to access the credit markets or to obtain financing or refinancing, if needed, on satisfactory terms or at all.

Our future success depends on our ability to sell new, renewal and upgraded Web filtering and Web security subscriptions.

Substantially all of our revenue for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 was derived from new and renewal subscriptions to our Web filtering and Web security products, and we expect that a significant majority of our sales for 2009 will continue to be derived from our Web filtering and Web security products. We expect sales of our Web security gateway, data loss prevention products (“DLP”), hosted security services and other products under development to comprise a relatively small portion of our overall sales in 2009. If our Web filtering and Web security products fail to meet the needs of our existing and target customers, or if they do not compare favorably in price, features and performance to competing products, our operating results and our business will be significantly impaired. If we cannot sufficiently increase our customer base with the addition of new customers, particularly in the SMB segment, increase seats under subscriptions from existing customers or renew a sufficient number of SurfControl’s Web filtering customers or migrate them to our Web filtering product, we will not be able to grow our business to meet expectations.

Subscriptions for our Web filtering and security products typically have durations of 12, 24 or 36 months. Our customers have no obligation to renew their subscriptions upon expiration, and if they renew, they may elect to renew for a shorter duration than the previous subscription period. As a result of macroeconomic conditions, our Websense and SurfControl customers may elect to renew subscriptions for shorter durations and may not add seats or product offerings due to contractions of work forces of their respective organizations. Our revenue also depends upon maintaining a high rate of sales of renewal subscriptions and upon adding additional seats or

product offerings to existing customers. This may require increasingly costly sales efforts targeting senior management and other management personnel associated with our customers’ Internet and security infrastructure. We may not be able to maintain or continue to generate increasing revenue from existing customers.

Our revenue is derived almost entirely from sales through indirect channels and we depend upon these channels to create demand for our products.

Our revenue has been derived almost entirely from sales through indirect channels, including value-added resellers, distributors that sell our products to end-users, providers of managed Internet services and other resellers. Although we rely upon these indirect channels of distribution, we also depend upon our internal sales force to generate sales leads and sell products through the reseller network. Ingram Micro, one of our broad-line distributors in North America, accounted for approximately 23% of our revenue during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. Should Ingram Micro experience financial difficulties or otherwise delay or prevent our collection of accounts receivable from them, our revenue and cash flow would be adversely affected. Also, should our resellers be subject to credit limits or have financial difficulties that limit financing terms available to them, our revenue and cash flow could be significantly adversely affected. Our indirect sales model involves a number of additional risks, including:

 

   

our resellers and distributors, including Ingram Micro, are not subject to minimum sales requirements or any obligation to market our products to their customers;

 

   

we cannot control the level of effort our resellers and distributors expend or the extent to which any of them will be successful in marketing and selling our products;

 

   

we cannot assure that our channel partners will market and sell our newer product offerings such as our security-oriented offerings, our Web security gateway, our DLP offerings or our hosted security services;

 

   

our reseller and distributor agreements are generally nonexclusive and may be terminated at any time without cause; and

 

   

our resellers and distributors frequently market and distribute competing products and may, from time to time, place greater emphasis on the sale of these products due to pricing, promotions and other terms offered by our competitors.

Our ability to meaningfully increase the amount of our products sold through our sales channels also depends on our ability to adequately and efficiently support these channel partners with, among other things, appropriate financial incentives to encourage pre-sales investment and sales tools, such as sales training, technical training and product materials needed to support their customers and prospects. The diversity and sophistication of our product offerings have required us to focus on additional sales and technical training, and we are making increased investments in this area. Additionally, we are continually evaluating the changes to our internal ordering and partner management systems in order to effectively execute our two-tier distribution strategy. Any failure to properly and efficiently support our sales channels will result in lost sales opportunities.

If our internal controls are not effective, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires companies to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of their internal control over financial reporting. To comply with this statute, we are required to document and test our internal control over financial reporting; our management is required to assess and issue a report concerning our internal control over financial reporting; and our independent registered public accounting firm is required to attest to and report on management’s assessment and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

Management had previously concluded that we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. In connection with the restatement discussed under the heading “Restatement of Previously Reported Consolidated Financial Statements” in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this report, management determined that the material weaknesses described below existed as of December 31, 2008. Accordingly, management has now concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2008.

As described in “Part II—Item 9A. Controls and Procedures” of this report, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2008. We and our auditors have also identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting relating to our revenue recognition under original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) contracts and our computation of our income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2008.

We have taken and are taking actions to remediate these material weaknesses, including implementing a new system for review to determine the maximum period of our performance obligations under each OEM contract and strengthening the controls in the reconciliation and review of the computation of our income tax provision. In addition, our audit committee has directed management to develop and present a plan and timetable for the implementation of remediation measures (to the extent not already implemented), and our audit committee intends to monitor such implementation. We believe that these actions will remediate the control deficiencies we have identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. Although we have begun the process of remediating these material weaknesses, this process will take time, and we will not be able to assert that we have remediated these material weaknesses until the procedures that we put in place have been working for a sufficient period of time for us to determine that they are effective.

Although we believe we are taking appropriate actions to remediate the control deficiencies we have identified to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting, we cannot assure you that we will not discover other material weaknesses in the future. Any failure to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, or any difficulties we encounter in implementation, could cause us to fail to meet our periodic reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial statements, and substantial costs and resources may be required to rectify these or other internal control deficiencies. If we cannot produce reliable financial reports, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, the market price of our common stock could decline significantly, and our business and financial condition could be harmed.

We face increasing competition from much larger software and hardware companies, which places pressure on our pricing and which could prevent us from increasing revenue or returning to profitability. In addition, as we increase our emphasis on our security-oriented products, we face competition from better-established security companies that have significantly greater resources.

The market for our products is intensely competitive and is likely to become even more so in the future. Our current principal Web filtering competitors frequently offer their products at a significantly lower price than our products, which has resulted in pricing pressures on sales of our product and potentially could result in the commoditization of products in our space. We also face current and potential competition from vendors of Internet servers, operating systems and networking hardware, many of which now, or may in the future, develop and/or bundle Web filtering or other competitive products with their current products with no price increase to these current products. Increased competition may cause price reductions or a loss of market share, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. If we are unable to maintain the current pricing on sales of our products or increase our pricing in the future, our results of operations could be negatively impacted. Even if our products provide greater functionality and are more effective than certain other competitive products, potential customers might accept this limited functionality. In addition, our own indirect sales channels may decide to develop or sell competing products instead of our

products. Pricing pressures and increased competition generally could result in reduced sales, reduced margins or the failure of our products to achieve or maintain widespread market acceptance, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our current principal competitors include:

 

   

companies offering Web filtering and Web security solutions, such as Microsoft, Symantec/Message Labs, McAfee/Secure Computing, Cisco Systems, Juniper Networks, Trend Micro, Google, BrightCloud, ScanSafe, Blue Coat Systems, Aladdin, Finjan, FaceTime, Mi5 Networks, St. Bernard Software, Marshal8e6, Clearswift, Sophos, Barracuda, Digital Arts and Computer Associates;

 

   

companies integrating Web filtering into specialized security appliances, such as Blue Coat Systems, Cisco Systems, McAfee/Secure Computing, WatchGuard, Check Point Software, St. Bernard Software, Barracuda, Juniper Networks, Trend Micro, Mi5 Networks, SonicWALL, Sophos, Network Box and Marshal8e6;

 

   

companies offering DLP solutions, such as Symantec, Verdasys, Vericept, EMC, McAfee/Secure Computing, IBM, Trend Micro, Proofpoint, Palisade Systems, Orchestria (acquisition pending by Computer Associates), Raytheon, Intrusion, Fidelis, GTB Technologies, Workshare, Check Point Software and Code Green Networks;

 

   

companies offering messaging security, such as McAfee/Secure Computing, Symantec/Message Labs, Google, Cisco Systems, Barracuda, SonicWALL, Trend Micro, Axway/Tumbleweed, MX Logic, Sophos, Microsoft, Proofpoint, Clearswift and BorderWare;

 

   

companies offering on-demand email and Web security services, such as Google, Symantec/Message Labs, McAfee, MX Logic, Webroot, St. Bernard Software, Purewire, BrightCloud, Zscaler, Trend Micro and ScanSafe;

 

   

companies offering desktop security solutions such as Check Point Software, Cisco Systems, McAfee, Microsoft, Symantec, Computer Associates, Sophos, Webroot, IBM and Trend Micro; and

 

   

companies offering Web gateway solutions such as Microsoft, Blue Coat Systems, Cisco Systems, Trend Micro, Check Point Software, McAfee and Juniper Networks.

As we develop and market our products with an increasing security-oriented emphasis, we also face growing competition from security solutions providers. Many of our competitors within the Web security market, such as Symantec, McAfee, Trend Micro, Cisco Systems, Google and Microsoft enjoy substantial competitive advantages, including:

 

   

greater name recognition and larger marketing budgets and resources;

 

   

established marketing relationships and access to larger customer bases; and

 

   

substantially greater financial, technical and other resources.

As a result, we may be unable to gain sufficient traction as a provider of Web security solutions, and our competitors may be able to respond more quickly and effectively than we can to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, or devote greater resources to the development, marketing, promotion and sale of their products than we can. Current and potential competitors have established or may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the functionality and market acceptance of their products. In addition, our competitors may be able to replicate our products, make more attractive offers to existing and potential employees and strategic partners, develop new products or enhance existing products and services more quickly. Accordingly, new competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. In addition, many of our competitors made recent acquisitions in some of our product areas, and, we expect competition to increase as a result of this industry consolidation. Through an acquisition, a competitor could bundle separate products to include functions that are

currently provided primarily by our Web and data security solutions and sell the combined product at a lower cost than our stand-alone solutions. For all of the foregoing reasons, we may not be able to compete successfully against our current and future competitors.

The covenants in our senior secured credit facility restrict our financial and operational flexibility, including our ability to complete additional acquisitions and invest in new business opportunities.

In connection with our acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007, we entered into an amended and restated senior secured credit facility to provide financing for a substantial portion of the acquisition purchase price. Our senior secured credit facility contains covenants that restrict, among other things, our ability to borrow money, make particular types of investments, including investments in our subsidiaries, make other restricted payments, pay down subordinated debt, swap or sell assets, merge or consolidate or make acquisitions. An event of default under our senior secured credit facility could allow the lenders to declare all amounts outstanding with respect to the senior secured credit facility to be immediately due and payable. On September 15, 2009, we announced that our previously issued financial statements contained in our annual reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2008, June 30, 2008, September 30, 2008, March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009 should no longer be relied upon because of errors in these financial statements. We subsequently restated our financial statements for these periods. We do not believe that these restatements of our financial statements resulted in any material non-compliance by us with the covenants or representations and warranties in our Senior Credit Agreement. While we have confirmed our compliance to our lenders and we have not received any notifications from our lenders to the contrary, there can be no assurance that our lenders will not take a different position from ours, seek to modify the interest rate or other terms of the Senior Credit Agreement, or pursue an acceleration of our obligations under the Senior Credit Agreement. As collateral for the loan, we pledged substantially all of our consolidated assets and the stock of some of our subsidiaries (subject to limitations with respect to foreign subsidiaries) to secure the debt under our senior secured credit facility. If the amounts outstanding under the senior secured credit facility were accelerated, the lenders could proceed against those consolidated assets and the stock of our subsidiaries. Any event of default, therefore, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our senior secured credit facility also requires us to maintain specified financial ratios. Our ability to meet these financial ratios can be affected by events beyond our control, and we cannot assure that we will meet those ratios.

The amount of our debt outstanding may prevent us from taking actions we would otherwise consider in our best interest.

In October 2007, we borrowed $210 million under the senior credit agreement and $125 million remained outstanding as of December 31, 2008. As a result, we are incurring interest expense for the amounts we borrowed under the senior secured term loan, and our income from our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities has declined as we used a significant portion of our cash and marketable securities to fund a portion of the acquisition cost. This debt and the limitations our senior secured credit facility impose on us could have important consequences, including:

 

   

it may be difficult for us to satisfy our obligations under the senior secured credit facility;

 

   

we will have to use much of our cash flow for scheduled debt service rather than for potential investments;

 

   

we may be less able to obtain other debt financing in the future;

 

   

we could be less able to take advantage of significant business opportunities, including acquisitions or divestitures, as a result of debt covenants;

 

   

our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions could be increased; and

 

   

we could be at a competitive disadvantage to competitors with less debt.

Failure of our security products, including our DLP products and hosted security solutions, to achieve more widespread market acceptance will seriously harm our business.

Our future financial performance depends on our ability to diversify our offerings by successfully developing, introducing and gaining customer acceptance of our new products and services, particularly our security offerings. We now sell the Websense Data Security Suite, our DLP offering for the data security market, Websense Hosted Web Security and Websense Hosted Email Security, our hosted security services, and Websense Email Security, our email filtering solution. During the third quarter of 2008, we released our next generation Web content gateway to address emerging Web 2.0 threats, Websense Web Security Gateway, and our new DLP endpoint module, Websense Data Security Suite, and we are continuing to develop and release products in accordance with our announced product roadmap. We may not be successful in achieving market acceptance of these or any new products that we develop. Moreover, our recent increased emphasis on the development, marketing and sale of our security offerings and DLP products could distract us from sales of our core Web filtering and Web security offerings, negatively impacting our overall sales. Any failure or delay in diversifying our existing offerings, or diversification at the detriment to our core Web filtering and Web security offerings, could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition and our growth.

We have experienced declining growth rates, particularly for Web filtering sales to large enterprises in North America and Western Europe.

Our growth plans for new sales in North America and Western Europe are largely dependent on our ability to increase sales in the SMB segment and maintain our subscription base in the large enterprise market through subscription renewals and product upgrades. We need to increase sales through our two-tier distribution channel in North America and in Western Europe. We sell products specifically targeted at the SMB segment, Websense Express and Websense Hosted Security, though we cannot assure that these products will ultimately increase sales to the SMB segment. Numerous competitors target the SMB segment for Web filtering and security sales, many of whom are different competitors from our primary competitors in the large enterprise market segment. If Websense Express and Websense Hosted Security do not meet our customers’ expectations in the SMB segment or if we fail to compete effectively for volume business through our two-tier distribution model, our financial results and growth will be negatively affected.

Our international operations involve risks that could increase our expenses, adversely affect our operating results and require increased time and attention of our management.

We have significant operations outside of the United States, including research and development, sales and customer support. We have engineering operations in Reading, England; Beijing, China and Ra’anana, Israel.

We plan to continue to expand our international operations, but such expansion is contingent upon the financial performance of our existing international operations as well as our identification of growth opportunities. Our international operations are subject to risks in addition to those faced by our domestic operations, including:

 

   

difficulties associated with managing a distributed organization located on multiple continents in greatly varying time zones;

 

   

potential loss of proprietary information due to misappropriation or laws that may be less protective of our intellectual property rights;

 

   

requirements of foreign laws and other governmental controls, including trade and labor restrictions and related laws that reduce the flexibility of our business operations;

 

   

political unrest, war or terrorism, particularly in areas in which we have facilities;

 

   

difficulties in staffing, managing, and operating our international operations, including difficulties related to administering our stock plans in some foreign countries;

 

8


Table of Contents
   

difficulties in coordinating the activities of our geographically dispersed and culturally diverse operations;

 

   

seasonal reductions in business activity in the summer months in Europe and in other periods in other countries;

 

   

restrictions on our ability to repatriate cash from our international subsidiaries or to exchange cash in international subsidiaries into cash available for use in the United States;

 

   

costs and delays associated with developing software in multiple languages; and

 

   

currency exchange risks.

A significant portion of our foreign subsidiaries’ operating expenses are incurred in foreign currencies so if the U.S. dollar weakens, our consolidated operating expenses would increase. Should the U.S. dollar strengthen, our products may become more expensive for our international customers with subscription contracts, denominated in U.S. dollars, and as a result, our results of operations and net cash flows from international operations may be adversely affected, especially if the trend continues of international sales growing as a percentage of our total sales. Changes in currency rates also impact our future revenue under subscription contracts that are not denominated in U.S. currencies. Our revenue and deferred revenue for these currencies are recorded in U.S. dollars when the subscription is signed based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the last day of the previous month before the subscription agreement is signed. As a result, the strengthening of the U.S. dollar for current sales will not only reduce current cash flows from these sales, but will also reduce our revenue from these contracts, even if these foreign currencies should strengthen in the future.

Sales to customers outside the United States have accounted for a significant portion of our revenue, which exposes us to risks inherent in international sales.

We market and sell our products outside the United States through value-added resellers, distributors and other resellers. International sales represented 46% of our total revenue generated during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 compared with 41% of our total revenue during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. As a key component of our business strategy to generate new business sales, we intend to continue to expand our international sales, but success cannot be assured. In addition to the risks associated with our domestic sales, our international sales are subject to the following risks:

 

   

our ability to adapt to sales and marketing practices and customer requirements in different cultures;

 

   

our ability to successfully localize software products for a significant number of international markets;

 

   

the significant presence of some of our competitors in some international markets;

 

   

laws and business practices favoring local competitors;

 

   

dependence on foreign distributors and their sales channels;

 

   

longer payment cycles for sales in foreign countries and difficulties in collecting accounts receivable;

 

   

compliance with multiple, conflicting and changing governmental laws and regulations, including tax laws and regulations and consumer protection and privacy laws; and

 

   

regional economic and political conditions, including adverse economic conditions in emerging markets with significant growth potential.

These factors could have a material adverse effect on our international sales. Any reduction in international sales, or our failure to further develop our international distribution channels, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Some of our international revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars. In these markets, fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may make our products more expensive for international customers, which could harm our business. We also currently bill certain international customers in Euros, British Pounds, Australian Dollars, Chinese Yuan Renminbi and Japanese Yen. This increases our risks associated with fluctuations in currency exchange rates since we cannot be assured of receiving the same U.S. dollar equivalent as when we bill exclusively in U.S. dollars. We engage in currency hedging activities with the intent of limiting the risk of exchange rate fluctuations, but our foreign exchange hedging activities also involve inherent risks that could result in an unforeseen loss. If we fail to properly forecast rate fluctuations these activities could have a negative impact.

We may not be able to develop acceptable new products or enhancements to our existing products at a rate required by our rapidly changing market.

Our future success depends on our ability to develop new products or enhancements to our existing products that keep pace with rapid technological developments and that address the changing needs of our customers. Although our products are designed to operate with a variety of network hardware and software platforms, we will need to continuously modify and enhance our products to keep pace with changes in Internet-related hardware, software, communication, browser and database technologies. We may not be successful in either developing such products or introducing them to the market in a timely fashion. In addition, uncertainties about the timing and nature of new network platforms or technologies, or modifications to existing platforms or technology could increase our research and development expenses. The failure of our products to operate effectively with the existing and future network platforms and technologies will limit or reduce the market for our products, result in customer dissatisfaction and seriously harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may spend significant time and money on research and development to design and develop our DLP products, our hosted security services and our content gateway products. If these products fail to achieve broad market acceptance in our target markets, we may be unable to generate significant revenue from our research and development efforts. As a result, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely impacted.

If we fail to maintain adequate operations infrastructure, we may experience disruptions of our hosted services.

Any disruption to our technology infrastructure or the Internet could harm our operations and our reputation among our customers. Our technology and network infrastructure is extensive and complex, and could result in inefficiencies or operational failures. These potential inefficiencies or operational failures could diminish the quality of our products, services, and user experience, resulting in damage to our reputation and loss of current and potential subscribers, and could harm our operating results and financial condition. Any disruption to our computer systems could adversely impact the performance of our hosted service offerings, our customer service, our delivery of products or our operations and result in increased costs and lost opportunities for business.

Acquired companies or technologies can be difficult to integrate, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and adversely affect our operating results.

In October 2007 we acquired SurfControl and, as a result of the acquisition, Websense became an unprofitable operating business under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) after more than five years as a profitable operating business under GAAP. Given our subscription model, we expect to continue to operate at a loss under GAAP in the first half of 2009 until we generate sufficient revenue from the subsequent renewal of subscriptions from the installed SurfControl customer base to offset the expenses we began to incur as of the close of the SurfControl acquisition to operate the SurfControl business. Although we expect to continue to compete effectively for subscription renewals from the SurfControl customers when their contracts are up for renewal, we face substantial competition and may not retain as high a percentage of the SurfControl customer

base as we expect, which could negatively impact our results of operations and the timing of our return to profitability under GAAP.

Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including:

 

   

difficulties in integrating operations, technologies, services and personnel of the acquired company;

 

   

potential loss of customers and original equipment manufacturing relationships of the acquired company;

 

   

diversion of financial and management resources from existing operations and core businesses;

 

   

risk of entering new markets;

 

   

potential loss of key employees of the acquired company;

 

   

integrating personnel with diverse business and cultural backgrounds;

 

   

preserving the development, distribution, marketing and other important relationships of the companies;

 

   

assumption of liabilities of the acquired company, including debt and litigation;

 

   

inability to generate sufficient revenue from newly acquired products and/or cost savings needed to offset acquisition related costs; and

 

   

the continued use by acquired companies of accounting policies that differ from GAAP, such as policies related to the timing of revenue recognition.

Acquisitions may also cause us to:

 

   

issue equity securities that would dilute our current stockholders’ percentage ownership;

 

   

assume certain liabilities;

 

   

incur additional debt, such as the debt we incurred to partially fund the acquisition of SurfControl;

 

   

make large and immediate one-time write-offs for restructuring and other related expenses;

 

   

become subject to intellectual property or other litigation; and

 

   

create goodwill and other intangible assets that could result in significant impairment charges and/or amortization expense.

We may acquire additional companies, services and technologies in the future as part of our efforts to expand and diversify our business. Although we review the records of companies or businesses we are interested in acquiring, even an in-depth review may not reveal existing or potential problems or permit us to become familiar enough with a business to assess fully its capabilities and deficiencies. Integration of acquired companies may disrupt or slow the momentum of the activities of our business. As a result, if we fail to properly evaluate, execute and integrate future acquisitions, our business and prospects may be seriously harmed.

Our products may fail to keep pace with the rapid growth and technological change of the Internet in accordance with our customers’ expectations.

The ongoing evolution of the Internet and computing environments will require us to continually improve the functionality, features and reliability of our databases. Because our products primarily manage access to URLs and executable files included in our databases, if our databases do not contain a meaningful portion of relevant content, the effectiveness of our Web filtering products will be significantly diminished. Any failure of our databases to keep pace with the rapid growth and technological change of the Internet, such as the increasing amount of multimedia content on the Internet that is not easily classified, will impair the market acceptance of our products.

 

11


Table of Contents

We rely upon a combination of automated filtering technology and human review to categorize URLs and executable files in our proprietary databases. Our customers may not agree with our determinations that particular URLs and executable files should be included or not included in specific categories of our databases. In addition, it is possible that our filtering processes may place objectionable or security risk material in categories that are generally unrestricted by our users’ Internet and computer access policies, which could result in such material not being blocked from the network. Any errors in categorization could result in customer dissatisfaction and harm our reputation. Any failure to effectively categorize and filter URLs and executable files according to our customers’ expectations could impair the growth of our business. Our databases and database technologies may not be able to keep pace with the growth in the number of URLs and executable files, especially the growing amount of content utilizing foreign languages and the increasing sophistication of malicious code and the delivery mechanisms associated with spyware, phishing and other hazards associated with the Internet. The success of our dynamic Web categorization capabilities may be critical to our customers’ long term acceptance of our products.

Failure of our products to work properly or misuse of our products could impact sales, increase costs, and create risks of potential negative publicity and legal liability.

Our products are complex, are deployed in a wide variety of network environments and manage content in a dramatically changing Web 2.0 world. Our products may have errors or defects that users identify after deployment, which could harm our reputation and our business. In addition, products as complex as ours frequently contain undetected errors when first introduced or when new versions or enhancements are released. We have from time to time found errors in versions of our products, and we expect to find such errors in the future. Because customers rely on our products to manage employee behavior to protect against security risks and prevent the loss of sensitive data, any significant defects or errors in our products may result in negative publicity or legal claims. For example, an actual or perceived breach of network or computer security at one of our customers, regardless of whether the breach is attributable to our products, could adversely affect the market’s perception of our security products. Moreover, parties whose Web sites or executable files are placed in security-risk categories or other categories with negative connotations may seek redress against us for falsely labeling them or for interfering with their business. The occurrence of errors could adversely affect sales of our products, divert the attention of engineering personnel from our product development efforts and cause significant customer relations or legal problems.

Our products may also be misused or abused by customers or non-customer third parties who obtain access to our products. These situations may arise where an organization uses our products in a manner that impacts their end users’ or employees’ privacy or where our products are misappropriated to censor private access to the Internet. Any of these situations could result in negative press coverage and negatively affect our reputation.

We face risks related to customer outsourcing to system integrators.

Some of our customers have outsourced the management of their information technology departments to large system integrators. If this trend continues, our established customer relationships could be disrupted and our products could be displaced by alternative system and network protection solutions offered by system integrators. Significant product displacements could impact our revenue and have a material adverse effect on our business.

Other vendors may include products similar to ours in their hardware or software and render our products obsolete.

In the future, vendors of hardware and of operating system software or other software may continue to enhance their products or bundle separate products to include functions that are currently provided primarily by network security software. If network security functions become standard features of computer hardware or of operating system software or other software, our products may become obsolete and unmarketable, particularly if the quality of these network security features is comparable to that of our products. Furthermore, even if the

 

12


Table of Contents

network security and/or management functions provided as standard features by hardware providers or operating systems or other software is more limited than that of our products, our customers might accept this limited functionality in lieu of purchasing additional software. Sales of our products would suffer materially if we were then unable to develop new Web filtering, security and DLP products to further enhance operating systems or other software and to replace any obsolete products.

Our worldwide income tax provisions and other tax accruals may be insufficient if any taxing authorities assume taxing positions that are contrary to our positions.

Significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide provision for income taxes and for our accruals for state, federal and international taxes together with transaction taxes such as sales tax, VAT and GST. In the ordinary course of a global business, there are many transactions for which the ultimate tax outcome is uncertain. Some of these uncertainties arise as a consequence of intercompany arrangements to share revenue and costs. In such arrangements there are uncertainties about the amount and manner of such sharing, which could ultimately result in changes once the arrangements are reviewed by taxing authorities. Although we believe that our approach to determining the amount of such arrangements is consistent with prevailing legislative interpretation, no assurance can be given that the final tax authority review of these matters will agree with our historical income tax provisions and other tax accruals. Such differences could have a material effect on our income tax provisions or benefits, or other tax accruals, in the period in which such determination is made, and consequently, on our results of operations for such period.

From time to time, we are also audited by various state, federal and international authorities relating to tax matters. We fully cooperate with all audits. Our audits are in various stages of completion; however, no outcome for a particular audit can be determined with certainty prior to the conclusion of the audit and any appeals process. As each audit progresses and is ultimately concluded, adjustments, if any, are appropriately recorded in our financial statements from time to time in light of prevailing facts based on our and the taxing authority’s respective positions on any disputed matters. We provide for potential tax exposures by accruing for uncertain tax positions based on judgment and estimates including historical audit activity. We believe sufficient accruals have been recorded for these tax exposures. However, if the reserves are insufficient upon completion of any audits, there could be an adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations.

Any failure to protect our proprietary technology would negatively impact our business.

Intellectual property is critical to our success, and we rely upon patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws in the United States and other jurisdictions as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary technology and our Websense brands. We rely on trade secrets to protect technology where we believe patent protection is not appropriate or obtainable. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. While we require employees, collaborators and consultants to enter into confidentiality agreements, we cannot assure that these agreements will not be breached or that we will have adequate remedies for any breach. We may not be able to adequately protect our trade secrets or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure or the lawful development by others of such information.

We have registered our Websense and Websense Enterprise trademarks in several countries and have registrations for the Websense trademark pending in several other countries. Effective trademark protection may not be available in every country where our products are available. Furthermore, any of our trademarks may be challenged by others or invalidated through administrative process or litigation.

We currently have eleven issued patents in the United States and 21 patents issued internationally, and we may be unable to obtain further patent protection in the future. We have other pending patent applications in the United States and in other countries. We cannot ensure that:

 

   

we were the first to make the inventions covered by each of our pending patent applications;

 

   

we were the first to file patent applications for these inventions;

 

13


Table of Contents
   

any of our pending patent applications are not obvious or anticipated such that they will not result in issued patents;

 

   

others will not independently develop similar or alternative technologies or duplicate any of our technologies;

 

   

any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitive advantages or will not be challenged by third parties;

 

   

we will develop additional proprietary technologies that are patentable; or

 

   

the patents of others will not have a negative effect on our ability to do business.

Furthermore, legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of intellectual property rights are uncertain and can change over time. Effective patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret protection may not be available to us in every country in which our products are available. The laws of some foreign countries may not be as protective of intellectual property rights as U.S. laws, and mechanisms for enforcement of intellectual property rights may be inadequate. As a result our means of protecting our proprietary technology and brands may not be adequate. Furthermore, despite our efforts, we may be unable to prevent third parties from infringing upon or misappropriating our intellectual property, including the misappropriation or misuse of the content of our proprietary databases of URLs and executable files, and our ability to police that misappropriation or infringement is uncertain, particularly in countries outside of the United States. Any such infringement or misappropriation could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Third parties claiming that we infringe their proprietary rights could cause us to incur significant legal expenses that reduce our operating margins and/or prevent us from selling our products.

The software and Internet industries are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents, trademarks and copyrights and by frequent litigation based on allegations of patent infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. As we expand our product offerings in the data loss and security area where larger companies with large patent portfolios compete, the possibility of an intellectual property claim against us grows. We may receive claims that we have infringed the intellectual property rights of others, including claims regarding patents, copyrights and trademarks. Any such claim, with or without merit, could result in costly litigation and distract management from day-to-day operations. If we are not successful in defending such claims, we could be required to stop selling or redesign our products, pay monetary amounts as damages, enter into royalty or licensing arrangements, or satisfy indemnification obligations that we have with some of our customers. Such arrangements may cause operating margins to decline.

Because we recognize revenue from subscriptions for our products ratably over the term of the subscription, downturns in sales may not be immediately reflected in our revenue.

Substantially all of our revenue comes from the sale of subscriptions to our products, including our hosted services. Upon execution of a subscription agreement or receipt of royalty reports from OEM customers, we invoice our customers for the full term of the subscription agreement or for the period covered by the royalty report from OEM customers. We then recognize revenue from customers daily over the terms of their subscription agreements, or performance period under the OEM contract, as applicable, which, in the case of subscriptions, typically have durations of 12, 24 or 36 months. As a result, a majority of the revenue we report in each quarter is derived from deferred revenue from subscription agreements and OEM contracts entered into and paid for during previous quarters. Because of this financial model, the revenue we report in any quarter or series of quarters may mask significant downturns in sales and the market acceptance of our products, before these downturns are reflected by declining revenues.

 

14


Table of Contents

Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly, and these fluctuations may cause our stock price to fall.

Our quarterly operating results have varied significantly in the past, and will likely vary in the future primarily as the result of fluctuations in our billings, operating expenses and tax provisions. Although a significant portion of our revenue in any quarter comes from previously deferred revenue, a meaningful portion of our revenue in any quarter depends on the number, size and length of subscriptions to our products that are sold in that quarter. The unpredictability of quarterly fluctuations is increased by the fact that a significant portion of our quarterly sales have historically been generated during the last month of each fiscal quarter, with many of the largest enterprise customers purchasing subscriptions to our products nearer to the end of the last month of each quarter.

We expect that our operating expenses will increase in the future as we expand our selling and marketing activities, increase our research and development efforts and potentially hire additional personnel which could impact our margins. In addition, our operating expenses historically have fluctuated, and may continue to fluctuate in the future, as the result of the factors described below and elsewhere in this quarterly report:

 

   

timing of marketing expenses for activities such as trade shows and advertising campaigns;

 

   

quarterly variations in general and administrative expenses, such as recruiting expenses and professional services fees;

 

   

increased research and development costs prior to new or enhanced product launches;

 

   

timing of expenses associated with commissions paid on sales of subscriptions to our products;

 

   

amortization of acquired intangible assets associated with our PortAuthority and SurfControl acquisitions in 2007; and

 

   

changes in currency exchange rates impacting our international operating expenses.

Consequently, our results of operations may not meet the expectations of current or potential investors. If this occurs, the price of our common stock may decline.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations.

The market price of our common stock has been and likely will continue to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including:

 

   

deteriorating or fluctuating world economic conditions;

 

   

announcements of technological innovations or new products or services by our competitors;

 

   

demand for our products, including fluctuations in subscription renewals;

 

   

changes in the pricing policies of our competitors; and

 

   

changes in government regulations.

In addition, the market price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to:

 

   

announcements of technological innovations or new products or services by us;

 

   

changes in our pricing policies; and

 

   

quarterly variations in our revenues and operating expenses.

Further, the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market price of the stock of many Internet-related companies, and that often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. A number of publicly traded Internet-related

 

15


Table of Contents

companies have current market prices below their initial public offering prices. Market fluctuations such as these may seriously harm the market price of our common stock. In the past, securities class action suits have been filed following periods of market volatility in the price of a company’s securities. If such an action were instituted, we would incur substantial costs and a diversion of management attention and resources, which would seriously harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are dependent on our management team, and the loss of any key member of this team may prevent us from implementing our business plan in a timely manner.

Our success depends largely upon the continued services of our executive officers and other key management personnel and our ability to recruit new personnel to executive and key management positions. We are also substantially dependent on the continued service of our existing engineering personnel because of the complexity of our products and technologies. We do not have employment agreements with a majority of our executive officers, key management or development personnel and, therefore, they could terminate their employment with us at any time without penalty. We do not maintain key person life insurance policies on any of our employees. The loss of one or more of our key employees could seriously harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. In such an event we may be unable to recruit personnel to replace these individuals in a timely manner, or at all, on acceptable terms.

Because competition for our target employees is intense, we may not be able to attract and retain the highly skilled employees we need to support our planned growth.

To execute our growth plan, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for these personnel is intense, especially for engineers with high levels of experience in designing and developing software and Internet-related products. We may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. We have from time to time in the past experienced, and we expect to continue to experience in the future, difficulty in hiring and retaining highly skilled employees with appropriate qualifications. In order to attract and retain personnel in a competitive marketplace, we believe that we must provide a competitive compensation package, including cash and equity-based compensation. The volatility of our stock price and our results of operations may from time to time adversely affect our ability to recruit or retain employees. Many of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater resources than we have. If we fail to attract new personnel or retain and motivate our current personnel, our business and future growth prospects could be severely harmed.

Compliance with regulation of corporate governance, accounting principles and public disclosure may result in additional expenses.

Compliance with laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance, accounting principles and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, regulations and NASDAQ Global Select Market rules, have caused us to incur higher compliance costs and we expect to continue to incur higher compliance costs as a result of our increased global reach and obligation to ensure compliance with these laws as well as local laws in the jurisdictions where we do business. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time. Further guidance by regulatory and governing bodies can result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs related to the ongoing revisions to accounting, disclosure and governance practices. Our efforts to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards have resulted in, and are likely to continue to result in, increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new or changed laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, our reputation may be harmed.

If we cannot effectively manage our internal growth, our business revenues, results of operations and prospects may suffer.

If we fail to manage our internal growth in a manner that minimizes strains on our resources, we could experience disruptions in our operations that could negatively affect our revenue, billings and results of operations. We are pursuing a strategy of organic growth through implementation of two-tier distribution, international expansion, introduction of new products and expansion of our product sales to the small and medium sized businesses. Each of these initiatives requires an investment of our financial and employee resources and involves risks that may result in a lower return on our investments than we expect. These initiatives also may limit the opportunities we pursue or investments we would otherwise make, which may in turn impact our prospects.

It may be difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders.

Some provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as some provisions of Delaware law, may discourage, delay or prevent third parties from acquiring us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders. For example, our certificate of incorporation provides for a classified board, with each board member serving a staggered three-year term. It also provides that stockholders may not fill board vacancies, call stockholder meetings or act by written consent. Our bylaws further provide that advance written notice is required prior to stockholder proposals. Each of these provisions makes it more difficult for stockholders to obtain control of our board or initiate actions that are opposed by the then current board. Additionally, we have authorized preferred stock that is undesignated, making it possible for the board to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock with voting or other rights and preferences that could impede the success of any attempted change of control. Delaware law also could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us. Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law has an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by our board, including discouraging attempts that might result in a premium over the market price of the shares of common stock held by our stockholders.

Our senior secured credit facility also accelerates and becomes payable in full upon a change of control, which is defined generally as a person or group acquiring 35% of our voting securities or a proxy contest that results in changing a majority of our board of directors. These consequences may discourage third parties from attempting to acquire us.

We do not intend to pay dividends.

We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock since we have been a publicly traded company. We currently intend to retain any future cash flows from operations to fund growth, pay down our senior secured term loan and repurchase shares of our common stock, and therefore do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Moreover, we are not permitted to pay cash dividends under the terms of our senior secured credit facility.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained elsewhere in this report. See “Item 1A—Risk Factors” above regarding certain factors known to us that could cause reported financial information not to be necessarily indicative of future results.

Restatement of Previously Reported Audited Annual and Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Information

The accompanying Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations gives effect to certain restatement adjustments made to the previously reported consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 (including interim periods therein). See Notes 2 and 15 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of this report for additional information.

Overview

We are a leading provider of Web filtering and security, data loss prevention (“DLP”), and email anti-spam and security solutions. Our products and services protect organizations’ employees and critical business data from external Web-based and email-based attacks, and from internal employee-generated threats such as employee errors and malfeasance. Our customers use our software products to provide a secure and productive computing environment for employees, business partners and customers. Our portfolio of Web filtering, Web security, DLP and email anti-spam and messaging security software allows organizations to:

 

   

prevent access to undesirable and dangerous elements on the Web, such as Web sites that contain inappropriate content or sites that download viruses, spyware, keyloggers, and an ever-increasing variety of malicious code, including Web sites with user-generated content (Web 2.0 sites);

 

   

identify and remove malicious applications from incoming Web traffic;

 

   

filter “spam” out of incoming email traffic;

 

   

filter viruses and other malicious attachments from email and instant messages;

 

   

manage the use of non-Web Internet traffic, such as peer-to-peer communications and instant messaging;

 

   

prevent the unauthorized use and loss of sensitive data, such as customer or employee information; and

 

   

control misuse of an organization’s valuable computing resources, including unauthorized downloading of high-bandwidth content.

Since we commenced operations in 1994, Websense has evolved from a reseller of computer security products to a leading provider of content security software solutions, including Web security, DLP, email and messaging security solutions. Our first Web filtering software product was released in 1996 and prevented access to inappropriate Web content. Since then, we have focused on adapting our Web filtering capabilities to address changing Internet use patterns and the growing incidence of Web-based criminal activity.

During 2008, we derived 46% of our revenue from international sales, compared with 41% for 2007, with the United Kingdom comprising approximately 15% and approximately 11% of our total revenue in 2008 and 2007, respectively. We believe international markets continue to represent a significant growth opportunity and we are continuing to expand our international operations, particularly in selected countries in the European, Asia/Pacific and Latin American markets.

We utilize a two-tier distribution strategy in North America to sell our products, with an objective of increasing the number of value-added resellers selling our products and further extending our reach into the small and medium sized business market segment. Our distribution strategy outside North America also relies on a multi-tiered system of distributors and value-added resellers. Sales through indirect channels currently account

Table of Contents

for more than 90% of our revenue. Sales to Ingram Micro, a distributor who sells our products in North America through approximately 1,300 resellers, accounted for approximately 23% of our revenue in 2008 and 12% of our revenue in 2007.

In connection with the acquisition of SurfControl, we acquired approximately 35 arrangements with OEMs that grant the OEM customers the right to incorporate our Web filtering products into the OEM’s products for resale to end-users.

We sell subscriptions to our products, generally in 12, 24 or 36 month contract durations, based on the number of seats or devices managed. As described elsewhere in this report, we recognize revenue from subscriptions to our products, including add-on modules, on a daily straight-line basis commencing on the day the term of the subscription begins, over the term of the subscription agreement. We recognize revenue associated with OEM contracts ratably over the contractual period for which we are obligated to provide our services. We generally recognize the operating expenses related to these sales as they are incurred. These operating expenses include sales commissions, which are based on the total amount of the subscription contract and are fully expensed in the period the product is delivered. Operating expenses have continued to increase as compared with prior periods due to expanded selling and marketing efforts, continued product research and development and investments in administrative infrastructure to support subscription sales that we will recognize as revenue in subsequent periods.

In October 2007, we closed our acquisition of SurfControl and as a result incurred an operating loss under GAAP during the fourth quarter of 2007 and for the fiscal years 2007 and 2008. Similar to Websense, SurfControl sold products primarily under subscriptions whereby revenues were recorded ratably over the term of the agreement. Under purchase accounting, we wrote off $101.1 million of the deferred revenue of SurfControl, leaving a balance of $19.7 million. This adjustment reflects the fair value of the post-contract technical support services that will be recognized daily in accordance with our revenue recognition policy. We did not expect to generate significant revenue from the installed SurfControl customer base until the subscriptions we acquired were up for renewal. In connection with the acquisition, we have incurred restructuring costs primarily in connection with reducing SurfControl headcount and eliminating redundant facilities. As of the acquisition date, we also immediately started to incur the expenses of operating the SurfControl operations as well as recording the amortization of the acquired intangibles. As a result, we reported a net loss for fiscal years 2007 and 2008. Given the average remaining term of the SurfControl subscriptions we acquired and the elimination of many of the non-recurring acquisition related expenses, we currently expect to report income from operations for fiscal year 2009, although not in the first half of 2009. Our ability to retain SurfControl customers when contracts are up for renewal and maintain our overall pricing levels for our products will impact our results of operations and the timing of our return to profitability.

In connection with the acquisition of SurfControl, we approved plans to restructure the operations of the acquired company through involuntarily terminating 320 of SurfControl’s employees and exiting certain SurfControl facilities. We began formulating our restructuring plans for the operations of SurfControl in April 2007 when the acquisition was first announced. As of December 31, 2008, all of the 320 employees that we identified as being subject to the involuntary termination have been terminated and all the severance costs have been paid. These workforce reductions were across all functions and geographies and affected employees were provided cash severance packages. Additionally, we have consolidated facilities and have exited, or will be exiting, leases in certain locations as well as reducing the square footage required to operate some locations. Our facility exit plans were finalized during fiscal year 2008. We have accrued the estimated costs associated with the employee severance and facility exit obligations as liabilities assumed in the acquisition of SurfControl and, accordingly, included the costs as part of the purchase price of SurfControl. Changes to the estimates of the facility exit costs will be recorded in future periods either as a reduction to goodwill or as an expense to the results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Critical accounting policies are those that may have a material impact on our financial statements and also require management to exercise significant judgment due to a high degree of uncertainty at the time the estimate is made. Our senior management has discussed the development and selection of our accounting policies, related accounting estimates and disclosures with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition. When a purchase decision is made for our products, customers enter into a subscription agreement, which is generally 12, 24 or 36 months in duration and for a fixed number of users. Other services such as upgrades/enhancements and standard post-contract technical support services are sold together with our product subscription and provided throughout the subscription term. We recognize revenue on a daily straight-line basis commencing on the date the term of the subscription begins, and continuing over the term of the subscription agreement, provided the fee is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and collectability is reasonably assured. Upon entering into a subscription arrangement for a fixed or determinable fee, we electronically deliver access codes to users and then promptly invoice customers for the full amount of their subscriptions. Payment is due for the full term of the subscription, generally within 30 to 60 days of the invoice. We record amounts billed to customers in excess of recognizable revenue as deferred revenue on our balance sheet. For our U.S. dollar functional currency entities, when we enter into a subscription agreement that is denominated and paid in a currency other than U.S. dollars, we record the subscription billing and deferred revenue in U.S. dollars based upon the currency exchange rate in effect on the last day of the previous month before the subscription agreement is effective. Changes in currency rates relative to the U.S. dollar may have a significant impact on the revenue that we will recognize under contracts that are denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars.

For our OEM contracts, we grant our OEM customers the right to incorporate our web filtering products into their products for resale to end users. The OEM customer pays us a royalty fee for each resale to an end user of a subscription to our product over a specified period of time. We recognize revenue associated with the OEM contracts ratably over the contractual period for which we are obligated to provide our services. The timing of the OEM revenue recognition will vary for each OEM depending on the information available, such as underlying end user subscription periods, to determine the contractual obligation period.

We record distributor marketing payments and channel rebates as an offset to revenue. We recognize distributor marketing payments as an offset to revenue as the marketing service is provided. We recognize channel rebates as an offset to revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the subscription agreement.

Acquisitions, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. We account for acquired businesses using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations (“SFAS 141”), which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. The fair value of intangible assets, including acquired technology and customer relationships, is based on significant judgments made by management. The valuations and useful life assumptions are based on information available near the acquisition date and are based on expectations and assumptions that are considered reasonable by management. In our assessment of the fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired in the PortAuthority and SurfControl acquisitions, management used valuation techniques and made various assumptions. Our analysis and financial projections were based on management’s prospective operating plans and the historical performance of the acquired businesses. We engaged third party valuation firms to assist management in the following:

 

   

developing an understanding of the economic and competitive environment for the industry in which we and the acquired companies participate;

 

   

identifying the intangible assets acquired;

 

21


Table of Contents
   

reviewing the acquisition agreements and other relevant documents made available;

 

   

interviewing our employees, including the employees of the acquired companies, regarding the history and nature of the acquisition, historical and expected financial performance, product lifecycles and roadmap, and other factors deemed relevant to the valuation;

 

   

performing additional market research and analysis deemed relevant to the valuation analysis;

 

   

estimating the fair values and recommending useful lives of the acquired intangible assets; and

 

   

preparing a narrative report detailing methods and assumptions used in the valuation of the intangible assets.

All work performed by the outside valuation firms was discussed and reviewed in detail by management to determine the estimated fair values of the intangible assets. The judgments made in determining estimated fair values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as asset lives, can materially impact our results of operations.

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”), we review goodwill that has an indefinite useful life for impairment at least annually in our fourth fiscal quarter, or more frequently if an event occurs indicating the potential for impairment. We amortize the cost of identified intangible assets using amortization methods that reflect the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed or otherwise used up. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (“SFAS 144”), we review intangible assets that have finite useful lives when an event occurs indicating the potential for impairment. We review for impairment by facts or circumstances, either external or internal, indicating that we may not recover the carrying value of the asset. We measure impairment losses related to long-lived assets based on the amount by which the carrying amounts of these assets exceed their fair values. We measure fair value under SFAS 144, which is generally based on the estimated future cash flows. Our analysis is based on available information and on assumptions and projections that we consider to be reasonable and supportable. If necessary, we perform subsequent calculations to measure the amount of the impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the impaired assets.

Share-Based Compensation. Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123, Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”) and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) requiring the measurement and recognition of all share-based compensation under the fair value method. Share-based compensation expense related to stock options is recorded based on the fair value of the award on its grant date which we estimate using the Black-Scholes valuation model in accordance with the provisions prescribed under SFAS 123R and SAB 107. Share-based compensation expense related to restricted stock unit awards is calculated based on the market price of our common stock on the date of grant.

At December 31, 2008, there was $51.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation arrangements granted under all equity compensation plans (excluding tax effects). That total unrecognized compensation cost will be adjusted for estimated forfeitures as well as for future changes in estimated forfeitures. We expect to recognize that cost over a weighted average period of approximately 2.4 years.

We estimate the fair value of options granted using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and the assumptions described below. We estimate the expected term of options granted based on the history of grants and exercises in our option database. We estimate the volatility of our common stock at the date of grant based on both the historical volatility as well as the implied volatility of publicly traded options on our common stock, consistent with SFAS 123R and SAB 107. We base the risk-free interest rate that is used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model on the implied yield in effect at the time of option grant on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with equivalent remaining terms. We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not

 

22


Table of Contents

anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, we use an expected dividend yield of zero in the Black-Scholes option valuation model. We amortize the fair value ratably over the vesting period of the awards, which is typically four years. We use historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures and record share-based expense only for those awards that are expected to vest. We may elect to use different assumptions under the Black-Scholes option valuation model in the future or select a different option valuation model altogether, which could materially affect our net income or loss and net income or loss per share in the future.

We determine the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model that is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. Option-pricing models were developed for use in estimating the value of traded options that have no vesting or hedging restrictions and are fully transferable. Because our employee stock options have certain characteristics that are significantly different from traded options, and because changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimated value, in management’s opinion the existing valuation models may not provide an accurate measure of the fair value of our employee stock options. Although the fair value of employee stock options is determined in accordance with SFAS 123R and SAB 107 using an option-pricing model, that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction.

Income Taxes. We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in evaluating our tax positions and determining our provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. We establish reserves for tax-related uncertainties based on estimates of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. These reserves for tax contingencies are established when we believe that certain positions might be challenged despite our belief that our tax return positions are consistent with prevailing law and practice. We adjust these reserves in light of changing facts and circumstances, such as the outcome of tax audits. The provision for income taxes includes the impact of reserve provisions and changes to reserves that are considered appropriate.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“SFAS 109”), requires that deferred tax assets be evaluated for future realization and reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent we believe a portion will not be realized. We consider many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of our deferred tax assets, including our recent cumulative earnings experience and expectations of future taxable income by taxing jurisdiction, the carry-forward periods available to us for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors.

Effective January 1, 2007, we adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions accounted for in accordance with SFAS 109. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We consider many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions and tax benefits, which require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of our customers to pay their invoices. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Revenue

Revenue increased to $288.3 million in 2008 from $210.3 million in 2007. The increase was a result primarily of additional customer seats in new, renewed and upgraded subscriptions (including an increase of $54.5 million from new or renewed SurfControl seat subscriptions, an increase of $3.6 million of SurfControl OEM revenue and an increase of $5.0 million of revenue recognized from the deferred revenue acquired from SurfControl in October 2007) from 2007 to 2008. Revenue from DLP products initially acquired from PortAuthority contributed $4.6 million for 2008 compared to $2.1 million for 2007. The number of seats under subscription increased from 42.1 million as of December 31, 2007 to 43.9 million as of December 31, 2008. Revenue from products sold in the United States accounted for $155.7 million or 54% of 2008 revenue compared to $123.4 million or 59% in 2007. Revenue from products sold internationally accounted for $132.6 million or 46% of 2008 revenue compared to $86.9 million or 41% in 2007. We had current deferred revenue of $223.9 million as of December 31, 2008, compared to $191.0 million as of December 31, 2007. We expect our 2009 revenue to increase over 2008 revenue levels due to the level of current deferred revenue that will be recognized as revenue during 2009, subscriptions that are scheduled for renewal in 2009 that are expected to be renewed and expected new business during 2009 for which some revenue will be recognized during 2009. Our revenue in 2009 may be impacted by the duration of contracts for renewal and new subscriptions, the timing of sales of renewal and new subscriptions, the average annual contract value and per seat price, and currency exchange rates impacting new and renewal subscriptions in international markets.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists of the costs of content review, technical support, infrastructure costs associated with maintaining our databases, costs associated with providing our hosted security services and amortization of acquired technology. Cost of revenue increased to $48.2 million in 2008 from $29.1 million in 2007. The $19.1 million increase primarily consisted of $7.2 million of increased amortization of acquired technology primarily

 

24


Table of Contents

due to the acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007, $3.7 million related to increased personnel costs in our technical support and database groups, including the increased headcount attributable to the acquisition of SurfControl, $2.9 million related to the hosted services operations we acquired from SurfControl and $3.7 million related to increased allocated costs. We allocate the costs for human resources, employee benefits, payroll taxes, information technology, facilities and fixed asset depreciation to each of our functional areas based on headcount data. Our headcount in cost of revenue departments increased from an average of 179 during 2007 to an average of 223 during 2008. As of December 31, 2008, the acquired technology is being amortized over a remaining weighted average period of 2.5 years. We expect to record $12.9 million in amortization expense of acquired technology in 2009 based on our existing acquired technology assets as of December 31, 2008. In addition, we expect cost of revenue to increase to support the growth and maintenance of our databases and costs associated with providing our hosted security services as well as the technical support needs of our customers. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased to 17% during 2008 from 14% in 2007. We expect that cost of revenue will increase in absolute dollars in 2009 but as a percentage of revenue will remain approximately the same for 2009 compared to 2008.

Gross Margin

Gross margin increased to $240.1 million in 2008 from $181.2 million in 2007. The increase was primarily due to increased revenue. As a percentage of revenue, gross margin decreased to 83% in 2008 from 86% in 2007 primarily due to the increased costs described in the preceding Cost of Revenue section. We expect that gross margin, as a percentage of revenue, will remain in excess of 80% of revenue for 2009.

Operating Expenses

Selling and marketing. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions and benefits related to personnel engaged in selling, marketing and customer support functions, including costs related to public relations, advertising, promotions and travel, amortization of acquired customer relationships as well as allocated costs. Selling and marketing expenses increased to $175.4 million in 2008 from $126.2 million in 2007. Approximately $24.2 million of the increase was due to the amortization of acquired customer relationships which resulted from the acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007. As of December 31, 2008, the acquired customer relationships intangible assets are being amortized over a remaining weighted average period of approximately 5.6 years. In addition to the amortization of acquired intangible assets, the increase in selling and marketing expenses was due to increased personnel costs of $17.6 million, including new personnel added to support increased sales following the SurfControl acquisition in October 2007, and $5.7 million of increased allocated costs. Our headcount in sales and marketing increased from an average of 425 during 2007 to an average of 529 during 2008. Operating expenses in 2008 were reduced by improvements in U.S. currency exchange rates relative to the foreign currencies in which certain of our international expenses were incurred. We expect overall selling and marketing expenses to decrease in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue in 2009 primarily due to a decrease of approximately $11.1 million of amortization of acquired intangibles from the SurfControl acquisition and an elimination of the non-recurring acquisition related expenses. We expect amortization of acquired intangibles of $26.4 million in 2009 based on our existing acquired intangible assets as of December 31, 2008 from the SurfControl and PortAuthority acquisitions.

Research and development. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits for software developers and allocated costs. Research and development expenses increased to $53.3 million in 2008 from $40.9 million in 2007. The increase of $12.4 million in research and development expenses was primarily due to $7.2 million of increased personnel cost, including adding new employees due to the SurfControl acquisition in October 2007, and increased hiring to support our release of our Web content gateway, DLP endpoint module and enhancements to our other products as well as to support our expanding list of technology partners and $4.9 million of increased allocated costs. Our headcount increased in research and development from an average of 230 during 2007 to an average of 355 during 2008. Included in research and development for 2007 was $1.3 million of in-process research and development related to our PortAuthority acquisition in January 2007. We expect research and development expenses to increase in absolute dollars in

Table of Contents

2009 due to our expanded base of product offerings and the hiring of personnel to support our continued enhancements of our existing and new products. We are managing the increase in our absolute research and development expenses by operating research and development facilities in multiple international locations, including a facility in Beijing, China, that have lower costs than our operations in the United States. As a result of the PortAuthority and SurfControl acquisitions, we now have research and development facilities in Ra’anana, Israel; Los Gatos, California and Reading, England, that have contributed to our increased research and development expenses. While we expect research and development expenses to increase in absolute dollars in 2009, we expect that research and development expenses as a percentage of revenue will decrease in 2009 compared to 2008 due to the expected increase in revenue.

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits and related expenses for our executive, finance, and administrative personnel, third party professional services fees and allocated costs. General and administrative expenses increased to $45.3 million in 2008 from $32.7 million in 2007. The $12.6 million increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to $5.4 million of increased personnel costs needed to support our growing operations, including the acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007, $4.9 million of increased professional services primarily related to SurfControl integration activities and $2.3 million of increased allocated costs. Our headcount increased in general and administrative departments from an average of 80 during 2007 to an average of 111 during 2008. During 2008, we incurred $2.9 million in non-recurring acquisition related general and administrative expenses, including professional services, integration travel and allocated excess facility expenses. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars but decline as a percentage of revenue in 2009 due to the expected increase in revenue.

Interest Expense

Interest expense represents the interest incurred on our senior secured credit facility that we utilized to pay for a portion of the SurfControl purchase price in October 2007. Interest expense increased to $13.1 million in 2008 compared to $4.3 million in 2007. The increase was primarily due to the senior secured credit facility being outstanding for only one quarter in 2007 compared to the full year in 2008. Also included in the interest expense is amortization of deferred financing fees of $2.4 million and $763,000 for 2008 and 2007, respectively that were capitalized as part of the senior secured credit facility. We made prepayments on the senior secured credit facility that reduced the outstanding balance from $190 million as of December 31, 2007 to $125 million as of December 31, 2008. As a result of reductions in the LIBOR interest rate and improvements in our leverage ratio, our weighted average interest rate decreased from 7.3% at December 31, 2007 to 5.7% as of December 31, 2008. The amount of interest expense will fluctuate due to changes in the outstanding principal balance, changes in LIBOR and changes in our applicable spread to LIBOR based upon improvements in our leverage ratio in accordance with our senior secured credit facility agreement. Interest expense should decline in 2009 compared to 2008 due to the lower average outstanding principal amount under the senior secured credit facility and the expected lower marginal interest rate on the non-fixed rate component of our senior secured credit facility due to the reduction in our spread over LIBOR. Fluctuations in LIBOR could impact our marginal interest rate. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for a description of our senior secured credit facility.

Other Income, Net

Net other income decreased to $0.7 million in 2008 from $9.5 million in 2007. The decrease was due primarily to reduced cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances from which we generate interest income as a result of our use of an aggregate of $272 million to fund the acquisitions of SurfControl in October 2007 and PortAuthority in January 2007 and related transaction costs. During 2008, we also used $65 million to make prepayments of principal on our senior secured credit facility and approximately $20 million for stock repurchases reducing our cash balances. The decline in net other income was also due to lower interest rates realized on our balances of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities as well as foreign exchange losses due to unfavorable movements in foreign exchange rates during 2008 as compared with 2007. We expect

 

26


Table of Contents

to continue to generate significant cash flow from our operations and expect to continue to use a substantial portion of cash generated to pay down debt and fund stock repurchases. Due to a lower interest rate environment we expect our net other income in 2009 will be less than 2008 levels.

Provision for Income Taxes

In 2008, we recognized an income tax benefit of $19.5 million compared to an income tax expense of $2.9 million for 2007. The annual effective income tax rate for 2008 was (42.1)% compared to 21.6% for 2007. The 2008 effective tax rate variance from the statutory rate was primarily related to losses generated in a low tax jurisdiction (Ireland) and the establishment of a valuation allowance related to net operating losses for one of our subsidiaries in the United Kingdom offset by release of a valuation allowance related to net operating losses in the United States. In 2007 the annual effective tax rate variance from the statutory rate was primarily attributed to certain post-acquisition net operating losses related to SurfControl’s U.S. operations for which no tax benefit was recorded due to the uncertainty of the future utilization of these losses.

Our effective tax rate may change in future periods due to the composition of taxable income between domestic and international operations, the magnitude of our tax-exempt income, any future acquisitions and any future changes or interpretations in tax rules and legislation, or corresponding accounting rules.

Year ended December 31, 2007 compared with the year ended December 31, 2006

Revenue

Revenue increased to $210.3 million in 2007 from $178.8 million in 2006. The increase was primarily a result of the addition of new, renewed and upgraded subscriptions from our customers that resulted in a 1.3 million increase in the number of seats under subscription (excluding the addition of approximately 26.7 million SurfControl seats) from December 31, 2006 to December 31, 2007. Our 2007 revenue also increased compared to 2006 as a result of the acquisitions of PortAuthority in January 2007 and SurfControl in October 2007.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue increased to $29.1 million in 2007 from $15.3 million in 2006. The increase was primarily due to $6.6 million of amortization of acquired technology which resulted from the acquisitions of SurfControl in October 2007 and PortAuthority in January 2007, as well as increased costs for additional personnel in our technical support and database groups, including the increase in headcount attributable to the acquisition of SurfControl and the addition of DLP products, and allocated costs. Our headcount in cost of revenue departments increased from 152 at December 31, 2006 to 232 at December 31, 2007. As of December 31, 2007, the acquired technology is being amortized over a remaining weighted average period of 3.7 years. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased to 14% during 2007 from 9% in 2006.

Gross Margin

Gross margin increased to $181.2 million in 2007 from $163.5 million in 2006. The increase was primarily due to increased revenue. As a percentage of revenue, gross margin decreased to 86% in 2007 from 91% in 2006 primarily due to the increased costs described in the preceding Cost of Revenue section.

Operating Expenses

Selling and marketing. Selling and marketing expenses increased to $126.2 million in 2007 from $80.1 million in 2006. Approximately $13.6 million of the increase was due to the amortization of acquired intangibles (primarily customer relationships) which resulted from the acquisitions of SurfControl in October 2007 and PortAuthority in January 2007. As of December 31, 2007, the acquired customer relationships intangible assets

 

27


Table of Contents

are being amortized over a remaining weighted average period of approximately 6.8 years. In addition to the amortization of acquired intangibles, the increase in selling and marketing expenses was primarily due to additional expenses associated with our new channel strategy started in 2006, increased personnel costs and related travel, including new personnel added from the PortAuthority and SurfControl acquisitions and allocated costs. Our headcount in sales and marketing increased from 358 employees at December 31, 2006 to 546 employees at December 31, 2007.

Research and development. Research and development expenses increased to $40.9 million in 2007 from $22.7 million in 2006. The increase of $18.2 million in research and development expenses was primarily due to increased personnel cost, including costs of adding new full time employees due to the PortAuthority and SurfControl acquisitions, and increased hiring to support our expanding list of technology partners, the enhancements of Websense Enterprise, the development of Websense Express and enhancements to additional products, and allocated costs. Our headcount increased in research and development from 129 employees at December 31, 2006 to 346 employees at December 31, 2007. Included in research and development for 2007 was $1.3 million of in-process research and development related to our PortAuthority acquisition in January 2007.

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased to $32.7 million in 2007 from $21.3 million in 2006. The $11.4 million increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to additional personnel needed to support our growing operations, including the acquisitions of PortAuthority and SurfControl and allocated costs. Our headcount increased in general and administrative departments from 63 at December 31, 2006 to 113 at December 31, 2007.

Interest Expense

Interest expense represents the interest incurred on our senior secured credit facility that we utilized to pay for a portion of the SurfControl purchase price in October 2007. Also included in the interest expense is $763,000 of amortization of deferred financing fees that were capitalized as part of the senior secured credit facility.

Other Income, Net

Net other income decreased to $9.5 million in 2007 from $11.3 million in 2006. The decrease was due primarily to reduced cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances from which we generate interest income as a result of our use of an aggregate of $272 million to fund the acquisitions of SurfControl in October 2007 and PortAuthority in January 2007 and related transaction costs. This decline in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities was partially offset by higher interest rates realized on our balances of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities during 2007 as compared with 2006.

Provision for Income Taxes

In 2007, we recognized an income tax expense of $2.9 million as compared to $18.7 million for 2006. The annual effective income tax rate for 2007 was 21.6% compared to 36.8% for 2006. The decrease in the tax rate was primarily the result of the following factors. Related to the acquisition of SurfControl, we recorded certain post-acquisition net operating losses related to SurfControl’s U.S. operations for which no tax benefit is currently recorded due to the uncertainty of future utilization of these losses. Related to the acquisition of PortAuthority, we expensed acquired in-process research and development in our 2007 loss before income taxes for which a tax deduction is not allowed. In addition, although the share-based compensation for which no tax benefit is recorded in 2007 and our state income tax provision are both comparable to prior year’s amounts, the impact of these items on the effective tax rate percentage is greater due to the relative size of the pre-tax loss of $13.5 million in 2007 compared to the pre-tax income of $50.8 million in 2006.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2008 the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (“SFAS 161”), which requires additional disclosures about the objectives of derivative instruments and hedging activities, the method of accounting for such instruments under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and a tabular disclosure of the effects of such instruments and related hedged items on the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for us beginning January 1, 2009. We are currently assessing the potential impact that adoption of SFAS 161 may have on our financial statements.

In December 2007 the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statement to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141R is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Accordingly, any business combinations we engage in after January 1, 2009 will be recorded and disclosed following SFAS 141R. We expect SFAS 141R will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements when effective, but the nature and magnitude of the specific effects will depend upon the nature, terms and size of the acquisitions we may consummate after the effective date.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash and cash equivalents) of approximately $66.8 million and retained earnings of $39.1 million. As of December 31, 2007, we had cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash and cash equivalents) of $68.0 million, investments in marketable securities of $19.8 million and retained earnings of $65.9 million. During 2008, we used $65 million of our cash to pay down principal on our senior secured term loan and to repurchase approximately $20 million of our common stock.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $65.8 million in 2008 compared with $53.5 million in 2007. The $12.3 million increase in cash provided by operating activities in 2008 was primarily a result of our cash collections increasing due principally to increased sales resulting from the SurfControl acquisition and sales of new products, partially off-set by increased cash expenses principally associated with increased cash operating expenses after the SurfControl acquisition and interest payments associated with the senior secured credit facility utilized to finance the SurfControl acquisition. Our operating cash flow is significantly influenced by sales of new and renewal subscriptions, accounts receivable collections and cash operating expenses. A decrease in sales of subscriptions or accounts receivable collections will negatively impact our operating cash flow. We expect to continue to generate significant cash flow from operations in 2009.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $10.1 million in 2008 compared with net cash used in investing activities of $259.9 million in 2007. The $270.0 million change in net cash provided by investing activities for 2008 was primarily due to the net cash paid for the acquisitions of PortAuthority and SurfControl totaling approximately $477 million in 2007 and offset by the increase of net maturities over purchases of marketable securities of approximately $204 million in 2007 compared to 2008.

Net cash used in financing activities was $76.2 million in 2008 compared with net cash provided by financing activities of $189.0 million in 2007. The $265.2 million change in net cash used in financing activities in 2008 was primarily due to borrowing $210 million on our senior secured term loan in 2007 and making debt related payments of approximately $30 million ($25.4 million on the senior secured credit facility related to SurfControl and $4.2 million related to PortAuthority) in 2007 compared to $65 million of debt related payments (on the senior secured term loan) in 2008. We also repurchased approximately $20 million of our common stock in 2008 compared to making no stock repurchases in 2007.

In connection with the acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007, we entered into an amended and restated senior credit agreement (the “Senior Credit Agreement”). The $225 million senior secured credit facility consists of a five year $210 million senior secured term loan and a $15 million revolving credit facility. The senior secured term loan was fully funded on October 11, 2007, and the revolving line of credit remains unused. Through December 31, 2008, we have made prepayments totaling $85 million on our senior secured term loan, reducing the outstanding balance to $125 million. The senior secured credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets, including pledges of stock of some of our subsidiaries (subject to limitations in the case of foreign subsidiaries) and by secured guarantees by our domestic subsidiaries. The senior secured term loan initially amortized at a minimum rate of 2.5%, 10%, 12.5%, and 15%, respectively, during the first four years of the term and 60% during the fifth year. In conjunction with our $20 million prepayment on December 31, 2007, we amended our Senior Credit Agreement to eliminate any additional mandatory principal payments until September 30, 2009. The senior secured term loan bears interest at a spread above LIBOR with the spread determined based upon our total leverage ratio, as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement. The initial interest rate on the credit facility was LIBOR plus 250 basis points, and was subject to step downs in the spread over LIBOR based upon potential future improvements in our total leverage ratio. The unused portion of the revolving credit facility required a 50 basis points fee per annum, also subject to a step down based upon potential future improvements in our total leverage ratio. As of July 2008, the spread on both the senior secured term loan and revolving credit facility was reset to LIBOR plus 225 basis points per annum for the senior secured term loan and reduced by 25 basis points per annum for the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. The weighted average interest rate on the senior secured term loan at December 31, 2008 was 5.7%. The Senior Credit Agreement contains financial covenants, including a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio, as well as affirmative and negative covenants. Among the negative covenants are restrictions on our ability to borrow money, including restrictions on (a) the incurrence of more than $15 million of new debt, including capital leases (subject to certain exceptions), (b) the incurrence of more than $7.5 million in letters of credit, (c) the incurrence of more than $50 to $75 million of new debt, depending on our leverage ratio, to finance future acquisitions or (d) the assumption of more than $15 million of new debt in connection with acquisitions. On September 15, 2009, we announced that our previously issued financial statements contained in our annual reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2008, June 30, 2008, September 30, 2008, March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009 should no longer be relied upon because of errors in these financial statements. We subsequently restated our financial statements for these periods. We do not believe that these restatements of our financial statements resulted in any material non-compliance by us with the covenants or representations and warranties in our Senior Credit Agreement. While we have confirmed our compliance to our lenders and we have not received any notifications from our lenders to the contrary, there can be no assurance that our lenders will not take a different position from ours, seek to modify the interest rate or other terms of the Senior Credit Agreement, or pursue an acceleration of our obligations under the Senior Credit Agreement.

The Senior Credit Agreement provides that we must maintain hedge agreements so that at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the senior secured credit facility is subject to fixed interest rate protection for a period of not less than 2.5 years from the initial funding date. On October 11, 2007 in conjunction with the funding of the senior secured credit facility, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to pay a fixed rate of interest (4.85% per annum) and receive a floating rate interest payment (based on three month LIBOR) on an equivalent amount. The initial notional amount of the swap agreement was $105 million on October 11, 2007 and it amortizes each quarter down to $11 million on June 30, 2010. In addition, on October 11, 2007 we entered into an interest rate cap agreement to limit the maximum interest rate on a portion of our senior secured term loan to 6.5% per annum. The amount of principal protected by this agreement increases from $5.0 million at December 31, 2007 to $74.3 million on June 30, 2010. Both the interest rate swap and cap expire on September 30, 2010.

Obligations under our Senior Credit Agreement represent the future minimum principal debt payments due under the senior secured term loan. Estimated interest and fees expected to be incurred on the senior secured term loan are based on known rates and scheduled principal payments as of December 31, 2008 (see Note 9 to the audited financial statements).

We lease our facilities under operating lease agreements that expire at various dates through 2015. Approximately one-half of our operating lease commitments are related to our corporate headquarters lease, which extends through December 2013. Our corporate headquarters lease includes escalating rent payments from 2009 to 2013. The rent expense related to our worldwide office space leases are recorded monthly on a straight-line basis in accordance with GAAP.

Facility exit obligation represents estimated future lease costs from a facility acquired from SurfControl that is being exited (as more fully described in Note 5 to the audited financial statements). These costs will be paid over the respective lease term through 2011. These amounts are included in our consolidated balance sheet.

Software license obligations represent purchase commitments for software licenses made in the ordinary course of business.

In addition, due to the uncertainty with respect to the timing of future cash flows associated with our unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2008, we are unable to make reasonably reliable estimates of the period of cash settlement with the respective taxing authorities. Therefore, $8.8 million of unrecognized tax benefits (as more fully described in Note 13 to the audited financial statements) have been excluded from the contractual payment obligations table above.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.

Share Repurchase Program. In 2003, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to 4 million shares of our common stock. In 2005, we announced that our Board of Directors increased the size of the stock repurchase program by an additional 4 million shares, for a total program size of up to 8 million shares. In 2006, we announced that our Board of Directors increased the size of the stock repurchase program by an additional 4 million shares, for a total program size of up to 12 million shares. Repurchases may be made from time to time on the open market at prevailing market prices. In January 2008, we adopted a 10b5-1 plan that provides for quarterly purchases of our common stock in open market transactions. Depending on market conditions and other factors, purchases by our agent under this program may

be commenced or suspended at any time, or from time to time, without prior notice to us. During 2008, we repurchased 1,079,049 shares of our common stock for an aggregate of approximately $20 million at an average price of $18.53 per share. As of December 31, 2008, we had cumulatively repurchased 9,249,109 shares of our common stock under this program for an aggregate of $190.4 million at an average price of $20.59 per share. Under the terms of the Senior Credit Agreement, we are restricted from repurchasing our common stock for an aggregate purchase price that exceeds the sum of $25 million plus 50% of the aggregate amount of our consolidated net income, as defined in our Senior Credit Agreement, during the period from the effective date of the facility through the most recent quarter end for which we have filed quarterly financial statements. As of December 31, 2008, we can repurchase up to $29.9 million of our common stock under our Senior Credit Agreement, excluding shares we had repurchased through December 31, 2008. We intend to purchase shares during the remainder of 2009.

Prospective Capital Needs. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents balances, revolving credit balances and our ongoing cash flow from operations will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, including our capital expenditures, debt repayment obligations and stock repurchases, if any, for at least the next 12 months. During 2008, we made voluntary prepayments on our senior secured term loan of $65 million and repurchased $20 million of our common stock. Our cash requirements may increase for reasons we do not currently foresee or we may make acquisitions as part of our growth strategy that increase our cash requirements. We may elect to raise funds for these purposes through capital markets transactions or debt or private equity transactions as appropriate. We intend to continue to invest our cash in excess of current operating and capital requirements in interest-bearing, investment-grade securities.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Websense, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Websense, Inc. as of December 31, 2008 (as restated), and 2007 (as restated), and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2008 (as restated) and the year ended December 31, 2006. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Websense, Inc. at December 31, 2008 (as restated), and 2007 (as restated), and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2008 (as restated) and the year ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 2, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been restated for the correction of errors in the Company’s application of Statement of Position No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition as it relates to arrangements with original equipment manufacturer customers that were acquired in connection with the acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007 and errors in the Company’s computation of its income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2008.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, Websense, Inc. adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109,” effective January 1, 2007.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Websense, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 24, 2009, except for the effects of the material weaknesses described in the sixth paragraph of that report, as to which the date is October 28, 2009, expressed an adverse opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2008

 

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Websense, Inc. (“Websense” or the “Company”) commenced operations in 1994. Websense is a provider of Web filtering and security, data loss prevention, and email anti-spam and security solutions, providing products that protect organizations’ employees and critical business data from external Web-based and email-based attacks, and from internal employee-generated threats such as employee errors or malfeasance. The Company’s customers use its software products to provide a secure and productive computing environment for employees, business partners and customers.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries in Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Mauritius, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Prior to the Company’s acquisition of SurfControl plc (“SurfControl”) in October 2007, the Company’s sales were primarily denominated in its functional currency which had been the U.S. dollar. With the acquisition of SurfControl, Websense has certain subsidiaries with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries, where the local currency is the functional currency, are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with the resulting translation adjustments directly recorded to a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Revenue and expense accounts are translated at average exchange rates during the year. The Company recorded foreign currency transaction (losses) gains of ($888,000), $453,000 and $70,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which are included in “Other income, net” on its consolidated statements of operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company has adopted American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition (“SOP 97-2”) as amended by Statement of Position No. 98-9, as well as Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition, as issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. These statements and bulletin provide guidance for recognizing revenue related to sales by software vendors.

The Company sells its products on a subscription basis. A subscription is generally 12, 24 or 36 months in duration and for a fixed number of seats or devices. The Company recognizes revenue on a daily straight-line basis, commencing with the day the subscription begins and continuing over the term of the subscription agreement provided collectability is reasonably assured and all the other elements of revenue recognition have

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

been met. Upon entering into a subscription arrangement for a fixed or determinable fee, the Company electronically delivers access codes to users and then promptly invoices customers for the full amount of their subscriptions. Payment is due for the full term of the subscription, generally within 30-60 days of invoicing.

For the Company’s original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) contracts, the Company grants its OEM customers the right to incorporate the Company’s web filtering products into the OEMs’ products for resale to end users. The OEM customer pays the Company a royalty fee for each resale of a subscription to the Company’s product to an end user over a specified period of time. The Company recognizes revenue associated with the OEM contracts ratably over the contractual period for which the Company is obligated to provide its services to the OEM. These services consist of software updates, technical support and database updates to the Company’s Web filtering products.

The Company records amounts billed to customers in excess of recognizable revenue as deferred revenue in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company amortizes deferred revenues over the term of the subscription agreement commencing with the day the agreement is signed and all other revenue recognition requirements have been met.

The Company records distributor marketing payments and channel rebates in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 01-09, Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a Reseller of the Vendor’s Products), which states these payments and rebates should be recorded as an offset to revenue, unless the Company receives an identifiable benefit in exchange for the consideration and the Company can estimate the fair value of the benefit received. The Company recognizes distributor marketing payments as an offset to revenue in the period the marketing service is provided. The Company recognizes channel rebates as an offset to revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the corresponding subscription agreement.

Cash and Cash Equivalents (including restricted cash and cash equivalents)

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of ninety days or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company generally invests its excess cash in money market funds with strong credit ratings. Such investments are made in accordance with the Company’s investment policy, which establishes guidelines relative to diversification and maturities designed to maintain safety and liquidity. These guidelines are periodically reviewed and modified if necessary to take advantage of trends in yields and interest rates. The Company has not experienced any losses on its cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s restricted cash is restricted in its use for a credit card account, a capital reduction account in connection with a restructuring of an international subsidiary and lease guarantees.

Marketable Securities

The Company did not have any investments in marketable securities at December 31, 2008. Marketable securities at December 31, 2007 primarily consisted of municipal bonds. Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value, adjusted for other-than-temporary declines in value. The Company records other-than-temporary declines in value to earnings as realized losses. The Company has not had any investment security losses taken to date related to other-than-temporary declines in value. Unrealized holding gains and losses on securities available for sale are reported as a net amount in a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until realized. Realized gains and losses are recorded based on the specific identification method.

Interest on Cash and Marketable Securities

The Company’s interest on cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, included as a component of other income, net, was $1.6 million, $8.5 million and $11.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Acquisitions, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for acquired businesses using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS No. 141, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company reviews goodwill that has an indefinite useful life for impairment at least annually in the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter, or more frequently if an event occurs indicating the potential for impairment. Intangible assets with finite lives are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. The Company amortizes the cost of identified intangible assets using amortization methods that reflect the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed or otherwise used up. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the Company reviews intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If the value of future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of an asset, the Company records an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset. No impairment losses were recorded in 2008, 2007 or 2006.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and the senior secured term loan approximate their fair values.

Deferred Financing Costs

In connection with the senior secured credit facility, the Company capitalized approximately $5.4 million of deferred financing costs and is amortizing those costs over the term of the senior secured credit facility.

Derivatives

The Company uses derivatives to manage foreign currency risk and interest rate risk and not for speculative or trading purposes. The Company’s objective is to reduce the risk to earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair values of those derivative instruments are recorded to earnings or other comprehensive income (loss) depending on the use of the derivative instrument and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting.

During 2008 and 2007, the Company utilized Euro foreign currency forward contracts to hedge anticipated Euro denominated net monetary assets. All such contracts entered into were designated as fair value hedges and were not required to be tested for effectiveness as hedge accounting was not elected. Net realized gains related to the contracts designated as fair value hedges settled during 2008 and 2007 are included in other income, net, in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and amounted to approximately $132,000 for 2008 and $279,000 for 2007, respectively.

During 2008, the Company utilized British Pound foreign currency forward contracts to hedge anticipated British Pound denominated net monetary assets. All such contracts entered into were designated as fair value

hedges and were not required to be tested for effectiveness as hedge accounting was not elected. Net realized gains related to the contracts designated as fair value hedges settled during 2008 are included in other income, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and amounted to approximately $161,000 for 2008.

During 2008, the Company utilized Israeli Shekel zero-cost collar contracts to hedge anticipated operating expenses. All such contracts entered into were designated as cash flow hedges and were considered effective as defined by SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”), as amended. None of the contracts were terminated prior to settlement. Net realized losses related to the contracts designated as cash flow hedges settled during 2008 are included in the respective operating categories the Company hedged its Israeli Shekel expenditures against. These net realized losses amounted to approximately ($23,000) in 2008.

Notional and fair values of the Company’s hedging positions at December 31, 2008 and 2007 are presented in the table below (in thousands):

Euro forward contracts at December 31, 2008 were designated as fair value hedges and were not required to be tested for effectiveness as hedge accounting was not elected. All Euro contracts outstanding at December 31, 2008 will be settled before March 31, 2009. Realized gains or losses related to the settlements, if any, will be recorded in other income, net at the time of settlement.

British Pound forward contracts at December 31, 2008 were designated as fair value hedges and were not required to be tested for effectiveness as hedge accounting was not elected. All British Pound contracts outstanding at December 31, 2008 will be settled before February 28, 2009. Realized gains or losses related to the settlements, if any, will be recorded in other income, net at the time of settlement.

Israeli Shekel zero-cost collar contracts at December 31, 2008 were designated as cash flow hedges and were determined to be effective as of December 31, 2008. All Israeli Shekel contracts outstanding at December 31, 2008 will be settled before February 28, 2009. Realized gains and losses related to the settlements, if any, will be recorded in the respective operating categories the Company hedges its Israeli Shekel expenditures against.

The Company’s Senior Credit Agreement provides that the Company must maintain hedge agreements so that at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the senior secured credit facility is subject to fixed interest rate protection for a period of not less than 2.5 years from the initial funding date. On October 11, 2007 in conjunction with the funding of the senior secured credit facility, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to pay a fixed rate of interest (4.85% per annum) and receive a floating rate interest payment (based on three month LIBOR) on an equivalent amount. The initial principal amount of the swap agreement was $105 million on October 11, 2007 and it amortizes each quarter down to $11 million on June 30, 2010. In addition, on

October 11, 2007 the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement to limit the maximum interest rate on a portion of its senior secured credit facility to 6.5% per annum. The amount of principal protected by this cap agreement increases from $5 million at December 31, 2007 to $74.3 million on June 30, 2010. Both the interest rate swap and cap expire on September 30, 2010.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company sells its products to customers primarily in the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia, Australia and Latin America. The Company maintains a reserve for potential credit losses and historically such losses have been within management’s estimates. The Company’s broad-line distributor in North America, Ingram Micro, accounted for approximately 23% and 12% of the Company’s revenue during 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, ranging from three to seven years. Depreciation and amortization of leasehold improvements are computed using the shorter of the remaining lease term or the economic life.

Computer Software Costs

In accordance with SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, costs are capitalized, when significant, in the development of specific computer software products after establishment of technological feasibility and marketability. There have been no such costs capitalized to date as the costs incurred during the period between technological feasibility to general release have not been significant.

The Company accounts for internally developed computer software costs in accordance with SOP No. 98-1, Accounting for Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use.

Advertising Expenses

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 were $7.8 million, $7.8 million and $4.9 million, respectively.

Share-Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”), using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation expense that the Company recognizes beginning on that date includes: (a) compensation expense for all share-based awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) compensation expense for all share-based awards granted on or after January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R.

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted FASB Staff Position FAS No. 123R-3, Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards, (“FAS 123R-3”). FAS 123R-3 provides a practical exception when transitioning to the accounting requirements in SFAS 123R. The Company has used the simplified method to calculate the pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies recognized subsequent to adopting SFAS 123R (termed the “APIC Pool”).

At December 31, 2008, there was $51.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation arrangements granted under all equity compensation plans (excluding tax effects). That total unrecognized compensation cost will be adjusted for estimated forfeitures as well as for future changes in estimated forfeitures. The Company expects to recognize that cost over a weighted average period of approximately 2.4 years.

The Company estimates the fair value of options granted using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and the assumptions shown in the tables below. The Company estimates the expected term of options granted based on the history of grants and exercises in the Company’s option database. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock at the date of grant based on both the historical volatility as well as the implied volatility of publicly traded options on its common stock, consistent with SFAS 123R and Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate that is used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model on the implied yield in effect at the time of option grant on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with equivalent remaining terms. The Company has never paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, the Company uses an expected dividend yield of zero in the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Company amortizes the fair value ratably over the vesting period of the awards, which is typically four years. The Company uses historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures and records share-based expense only for those awards that are expected to vest.

The Company used the following assumptions to estimate the fair value of stock options granted for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006:

The Company used the following assumptions to estimate the fair value of the semi-annual employee stock purchase plan share grant during the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006:

 

     Years Ended December 31,

Average risk-free interest rate

   1.6   4.3   4.9

Average expected dividend yield

   —        —        —     

The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. Option-pricing models were developed for use in estimating the value of traded options that have no vesting or hedging restrictions and are fully transferable. Because the Company’s employee stock options have certain characteristics that are significantly different from traded options, and because changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimated value, in management’s opinion, the existing valuation models may not provide an accurate measure of the fair value of the Company’s employee stock options. Although the fair value of employee stock options is determined in accordance with SFAS 123R and SAB 107 using an option-pricing model, that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction.

Share-based compensation expense related to restricted stock unit awards is calculated based on the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

Comprehensive Income

SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, requires that all components of comprehensive income, including net income, be reported in the financial statements in the period in which they are recognized. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss), including foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on investments and certain derivative contracts, shall be reported, net of their related tax effect, to arrive at comprehensive income (loss).

Net Income Per Share

The Company computes net income per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share (“SFAS 128”). Under the provisions of SFAS 128, basic net income per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares for all periods presented consist of dilutive stock options and restricted stock units. Dilutive securities include both dilutive stock options and dilutive restricted stock units and are calculated based on the average share price for each fiscal period using the treasury stock method.

As the Company reported a net loss in 2008 and 2007, basic and diluted net loss per share were the same. Potentially dilutive securities outstanding were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities totaling 4,666,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006 were excluded from historical basic and diluted earnings per share because of their anti-dilutive effect as these stock options had exercise prices greater than the average market price of the common shares.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) to the numerator and denominator of diluted EPS for all periods presented.

Income Taxes

The Company applies the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in SFAS No. 109. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”) became effective for the Company beginning in 2007. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and also provides guidance on various related matters such as derecognition, interest and penalties and disclosure. The Company adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007 and the provisions of FIN 48 have been applied to all income tax positions commencing from that date. The Company recognizes potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of FIN 48 has been reported as an adjustment to the January 1, 2007 balance of additional paid-in capital and retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheet.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of the Company’s customers to pay their invoices. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In March 2008 the FASB issued SFAS No. 161 which requires additional disclosures about the objectives of derivative instruments and hedging activities, the method of accounting for such instruments under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and a tabular disclosure of the effects of such instruments and related hedged items on the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2009. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that adoption of SFAS 161 may have on its financial statements.

In December 2007 the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R which establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statement to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141R is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Accordingly, any business combinations the Company engages in after January 1, 2009 will be recorded and disclosed following SFAS 141R. The Company expects SFAS 141R may have an impact on its consolidated financial statements when effective, but the nature and magnitude of the specific effects will depend upon the nature, terms and size of the acquisitions, if any, consummated after the effective date.

 

2. Restatement of Previously Reported Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.

The determination to restate these consolidated financial statements and the quarterly consolidated financial statements was made by the Company’s Audit Committee upon management’s recommendation following the identification of errors related to the Company’s recording of royalty revenue related to OEM contracts which were acquired in connection with the acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007. Management determined

 

46


Table of Contents

Websense, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

whether the amounts involved were material under Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, Materiality (“SAB 99”), and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering Effects of Prior Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (“SAB 108”), for one or more periods. Management determined that there was an error in its application of SOP 97-2 and that the adjustments necessary to properly state revenues were material for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the interim periods within fiscal 2008, the fourth quarter of 2007 and the first and second quarters of 2009. Accordingly, management recommended to the Audit Committee that a restatement was required. During the restatement process, the Company also identified a material error in its income tax benefit computation for the year ended December 31, 2008. The general nature and scope of the errors and adjustments are summarized as follows:

 

   

Errors in the Timing of Recognition of OEM Revenue (“OEM Revenue—Timing Adjustments”)—The Company identified errors relating to the timing of recognizing royalty revenue from OEM contracts that were acquired in connection with the acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007. Since the SurfControl acquisition, the Company had been recognizing the reported royalty revenue in the same period that it billed the OEM for reported resale transactions of the Company’s products to the OEM’s end users. Because the Company has a continuing obligation to provide service in the form of software updates, technical support and database updates to the Company’s Web filtering products to the OEM during a contractual period of time, the Company has determined that the royalty revenue reported in each respective reporting period should have been recognized ratably over the then remaining contractual period of time for which it has an obligation to the OEM. These errors resulted in an overstatement of revenue of approximately $7.7 million and $1.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. In connection with the restatement, the Company determined that no adjustment was required to the fair value of the deferred revenue acquired in the SurfControl acquisition.

 

   

Errors in 2008 Tax Provision Calculation (“Income Tax Adjustments”)—As part of its income tax return to provision reconciliation procedures performed in the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company identified an error in the income tax benefit computation for the year ended December 31, 2008. In preparing its tax provision for fiscal year 2008, the Company mistakenly failed to eliminate a component of previously taxed income from its estimation of taxable profit. This error resulted in an understatement of the Company’s benefit for income taxes of approximately $7.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Other Non-Material Items (“Other Adjustments”)—The Company identified other errors that were not material on an after-tax basis, individually or in the aggregate, to its financial statements taken as a whole. These errors resulted in a net understatement in pre-tax loss of $626,000 and $27,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. However, because the Company is restating its financial statements for the effects of the items noted above, the Company revised its previously reported financial statements to correct all identified errors, including those that were not material. These other errors are summarized in the table below (in thousands):

     $ 460,874   
          

In connection with the acquisition, the Company’s management approved plans to restructure the operations of the acquired company by terminating 320 of SurfControl’s employees and exiting certain SurfControl facilities. As of December 31, 2008, all of the 320 employees originally identified for termination have been terminated and all the severance costs have been paid. These workforce reductions were across all functions and geographies and affected employees were provided cash severance packages. Additionally, the Company has consolidated facilities and has exited leases in certain locations as well as reduced the square footage required to operate some locations. The Company accrued the estimated costs associated with the employee severance and facility exit obligations as liabilities assumed in the acquisition of SurfControl and accordingly, these estimated costs are included as part of the purchase price of SurfControl. Changes to the estimates of the facility exit costs after 2008 will be recorded as a reduction to goodwill or as an expense to the results of operations, as appropriate, in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 95-3, Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination. As of December 31, 2008, $2.2 million of facility exit obligations remain accrued for payments in future periods as follows (in thousands):

In connection with the acquisition of SurfControl, Websense acquired SurfControl’s consumer Internet safety software business known as CyberPatrol. In accordance with an Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company sold certain assets and deferred revenue relating to CyberPatrol for $1.4 million cash on March 31, 2008. The

assets sold were primarily intellectual property for the technology and existing customer contracts. As the Company had not completed its purchase price allocation for the purchase of SurfControl as of March 31, 2008, and the best indication of fair value is a third party sale between a willing buyer and a willing seller, the Company recorded the sale as follows: increase to cash of $1.4 million, decrease to deferred revenue of $0.7 million and a reduction to goodwill of $2.1 million with no gain or loss recorded from the sale.

PortAuthority

In January 2007, the Company completed the acquisition of PortAuthority Technologies, Inc. (“PortAuthority”), a provider of data loss prevention technology, for approximately $90.3 million in cash. The purchase price was allocated as follows: $14.7 million to amortizable intangible assets, $1.3 million to in-process research and development, $54,000 to net tangible liabilities assumed and the remaining $74.4 million to goodwill.

9. Senior Secured Credit Facility

In connection with the acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007, the Company entered into an amended and restated senior credit agreement (the “Senior Credit Agreement”). The $225 million senior secured credit facility consists of a five year $210 million senior secured term loan and a $15 million revolving credit facility. The senior secured term loan was fully funded on October 11, 2007, and the revolving line of credit remains unused. At December 31, 2008, the outstanding balance under the senior secured term loan was $125 million as a result of the Company making optional prepayments totaling $65 million during 2008, as well as an optional $20 million prepayment on December 31, 2007. The senior secured credit facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company, including pledges of stock of some of its subsidiaries (subject to limitations in the case of foreign subsidiaries) and by secured guarantees by the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. The senior secured term loan initially amortized at a minimum rate of 2.5%, 10%, 12.5%, and 15%, respectively, during the first four years of the term and 60% during the fifth year. In conjunction with the Company’s optional $20 million prepayment on December 31, 2007, the Company amended its Senior Credit Agreement to eliminate any additional mandatory payments until September 30, 2009. The senior secured term loan bears interest at a spread above LIBOR with the spread determined based upon the Company’s total leverage ratio, as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement. The initial annual interest rate was LIBOR plus 250 basis points, and was subject to a potential step down in the spread over LIBOR based upon potential future improvements in the Company’s total leverage ratio. The unused portion of the revolving credit facility required a 50 basis points fee per annum, also subject to a step down based upon potential future improvements in the Company’s total leverage ratio. During 2008, the spread on both the senior secured term loan and revolving credit facility was reset to LIBOR plus 225 basis points per annum for the senior secured term loan and reduced by 25 basis points per annum for the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. The weighted average interest rate on the senior secured term loan at December 31, 2008 was 5.7%. The Senior Credit Agreement contains financial covenants, including a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio, as well as affirmative and negative covenants. Among the negative covenants are restrictions on the Company’s ability to borrow money, including restrictions on (a) the incurrence of more than $15 million of new debt, including capital leases (subject to certain exceptions), (b) the incurrence of more than $7.5 million in letters of credit, (c) the incurrence of more than $50 to $75 million of new debt, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio, to finance future acquisitions or (d) the assumption of more than $15 million of new debt in connection with acquisitions. In connection with the restatements of its financial statements as described in Notes 2 and 15, the Company does not believe that these restatements of its financial statements resulted in any material non-compliance with the covenants or representations and warranties in its Senior Credit Agreement.

As of December 31, 2008, future remaining minimum principal payments under the senior secured term loan will be as follows (in thousands):

The Senior Credit Agreement provides that the Company must maintain hedge agreements so that at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the senior secured credit facility is subject to fixed interest rate protection for a period of not less than 2.5 years from the initial funding date. On October 11, 2007 in

conjunction with the funding of the senior secured term loan, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to pay a fixed rate of interest (4.85% per annum) and receive a floating rate interest payment (based on three month LIBOR) on an equivalent amount. The initial notional amount of the swap agreement was $105 million on October 11, 2007 and it amortizes each quarter down to $11 million on June 30, 2010. In addition, on October 11, 2007 the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement to limit the maximum interest rate on a portion of its senior secured term loan to 6.5% per annum. The amount of principal protected by this agreement increases from $5 million at December 31, 2007 to $74.3 million on June 30, 2010. Both the interest rate swap and cap expire on September 30, 2010.

 

10. Fair Value Measurements

SFAS No. 157

SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and establishes a hierarchy that categorizes and prioritizes the sources to be used to estimate fair value. SFAS 157 also expands financial statement disclosures about fair value measurements. On February 12, 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 157-2 (“FSP 157-2”), which delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for one year for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company elected a partial deferral of SFAS 157 under the provisions of FSP 157-2 related to the measurement of fair value used when evaluating nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FSP 157-2 on its financial statements. The impact of partially adopting SFAS 157 effective January 1, 2008 was not material to the Company’s financial statements.

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

The following table presents the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2008 (in thousands):

forward contracts and zero-cost collar contracts, that are valued using models based on readily observable market parameters for all substantial terms of the Company’s derivative contracts and thus are classified within Level 2.

Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis

As permitted by FSP 157-2, the Company elected to defer the fair value measurement disclosure of its nonfinancial assets and liabilities.

SFAS No. 159

SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an Amendment of SFAS 115 (“SFAS 159”), permits but does not require companies to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. As the Company did not elect to fair value any of its financial instruments under the provisions of SFAS 159, the adoption of this statement effective January 1, 2008 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

11. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company leases its facilities and certain equipment under non-cancelable operating leases, which expire at various dates through 2015. The facilities’ leases contain renewal options and are subject to cost increases. Future minimum annual payments under non-cancelable operating leases at December 31, 2008 are as follows (in thousands):

Rent expense totaled $7.9 million, $6.6 million and $4.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective leases.

FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others (“FIN 45”), elaborates on previously existing disclosure requirements for most guarantees, including loan guarantees such as standby letters of credit. It also clarifies that at the time a company issues a guarantee, the company must recognize an initial liability for the fair value, or market value, of the obligations it assumes under the guarantee and must disclose that information in its interim and annual financial statements. The provisions related to recognizing a liability at inception of the guarantee for the fair value of the guarantor’s obligations does not apply to product warranties, indemnifications or to guarantees accounted for as derivatives.

The Company provides indemnifications of varying scope and size to certain customers against claims of intellectual property infringement made by third parties arising from the use of its products. The Company evaluates estimated losses for such indemnifications under SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, as interpreted by FIN 45. The Company considers such factors as the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and the ability to make a reasonable estimate of the amount of loss. To date, the Company has not encountered material costs as a result of such obligations and has not accrued any liabilities related to such indemnifications in its financial statements.

Litigation

The Company is involved in various legal actions in the normal course of business. Based on current information, including consultation with the Company’s attorneys, the Company believes it has adequately reserved for any ultimate liability that may result from these actions such that any liability would not materially affect our consolidated financial positions, results of operations or cash flows. The Company’s evaluation of the likely impact of these actions could change in the future and unfavorable outcomes and/or defense costs, depending upon the amount and timing, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in a future period.

 

12. Stockholders’ Equity

Stock Plans

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company’s 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”) provides for automatic annual increases in the number of shares reserved for issuance thereunder equal to the lesser of (i) 1% of the Company’s outstanding shares on the last business day in December of the calendar year immediately preceding or (ii) 750,000 shares. The Purchase Plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan within the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Purchase Plan, the Board of Directors may authorize participation by eligible employees, including officers, in periodic offerings following commencement of the Purchase Plan. Shares issued and available for issuance are as follows:

employed for at least five months per calendar year. Employees who participate in an offering may have up to 15% of their earnings withheld pursuant to the Purchase Plan. The amount withheld is then used to purchase shares of common stock on specified dates. The price of common stock purchased pursuant to the Purchase Plan will be equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock at the commencement date of each offering period or the relevant purchase date. Employees may end their participation in the offering at any time during the offering period, and participation ends automatically on termination of employment.

During 2008 and 2007, the Company issued 347,523 and 239,921 shares, respectively, under the Purchase Plan.

Employee Stock Plans

The Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2000 Plan”) provides for the grant of stock options and other stock awards to the Company’s directors, officers, employees and consultants. The 2000 Plan provides for the grant of incentive and non-statutory stock options, restricted stock units and rights to purchase stock to employees, directors or consultants of the Company. The 2000 Plan provides that incentive stock options will be granted only to employees and are subject to certain limitations as to fair value during a calendar year.

In addition, the 2000 Plan provides for automatic annual increases in the number of shares authorized and reserved for issuance thereunder equal to the lesser of (i) 4% of the Company’s outstanding shares on the last business day in December of the calendar year immediately preceding or (ii) 3,000,000 shares. At December 31, 2008, a total of 23,165,288 shares have been authorized for issuance under the 2000 Plan, of which 50,742 remain available for grant.

In January 2007, the Compensation Committee of Websense’s Board of Directors adopted the Websense, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Assumption Plan (the “2007 Plan”). In connection with the acquisition of PortAuthority, the Company agreed to substitute unvested stock options to purchase PortAuthority common stock that were granted under PortAuthority’s stock option plan and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the acquisition with options to purchase an aggregate of 74,891 shares of Websense common stock (the “Substitute Options”). The Substitute Options have the same contractual lives and vesting periods as they did under the PortAuthority option plan. The number of shares and exercise prices of the Substitute Options were determined based on the conversion ratio as defined by the merger agreement with PortAuthority. At December 31, 2008, 204,083 shares were authorized for issuance and 6,215 shares were available for grant.

The exercise price of both incentive and non-statutory stock options and the issuance price of common stock under the 2000 Plan and the 2007 Plan must equal at least the fair value on the date of grant or issuance, as the case may be. Through April 2005, the option grants were generally exercisable for a period of ten years, and beginning in May 2005, the option grants are generally exercisable for a period of seven years after the date of grant and generally vest 25% one year from date of grant and ratably each month thereafter for a period of 36 months. Unvested common shares obtained through early exercise of stock options are subject to repurchase by the Company at the original issue price. Restricted stock units are subject to vesting and the holders of the restricted stock units are entitled to delivery of the underlying common stock on the applicable vesting date without any payment. The vesting schedules, including acceleration events, for restricted stock units may vary in the individual cases. To date, only non-statutory stock options and restricted stock units have been granted under the 2000 Plan and only non-statutory stock options have been granted under the 2007 Plan. Through December 31, 2008, the Company granted 411,770 restricted stock units of which 65,333 have vested and been issued and 10,750 have been forfeited. The remaining 335,687 restricted stock units have a weighted average grant date fair value of $19.73, a weighted average remaining contractual term of 1.6 years and an aggregate intrinsic value of $5.0 million as of December 31, 2008.

During 2008, the Company granted a total of 44,000 restricted stock unit awards with performance vesting to certain of its officers under the 2000 Plan. The performance criteria were based on the Company’s achievement of combined annual billings and operating income objectives for 2008 set by the Company’s Board of Directors. As a result of the Company achieving the performance requirements, 50% of the restricted stock units will vest on February 5, 2010 and the remaining 50% will vest on February 5, 2011.

A valuation allowance is required when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Periodically, management reassesses the need for a valuation allowance. Realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon taxable income in prior carryback years, estimates of future taxable income, tax planning strategies and reversals of existing taxable temporary differences. Based on the Company’s assessment of these items during 2008, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would be fully utilized. Accordingly, the valuation allowance of $9.5 million as of December 31, 2007 was released and recorded as a credit to goodwill of $4.7 million and a credit to income tax provision of

approximately $4.8 million during 2008. As part of the application of SFAS 141 and in relation to transactions in fiscal year 2008, a valuation allowance of $5.0 million was established related to the following items: $2.0 million for state net operating loss carryforwards for SurfControl, Inc., $0.6 million of foreign tax credits due to the uncertainty of future utilization and $2.4 million for net deferred tax assets related to net operating losses of one of Websense’s subsidiaries in the United Kingdom as the subsidiary has no history of earnings. If recognized, the tax benefits relating to the reversal of the valuation allowance would result in a future reduction to income tax expense of approximately $5.0 million.

As of December 31, 2008, the Company had federal, state, United Kingdom, Austria, Ireland, Brazil, and Netherlands net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $24.7 million, $47.2 million, $22.7 million, $0.4 million, $1.4 million, $0.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively. A portion of the U.S. federal and state net operating losses are subject to annual limitations due to changes in ownership. If not utilized, the federal net operating loss carryforward will begin to expire in 2027, the state net operating loss carryforward will begin to expire in 2014 and the Netherlands net operating loss carryforward will expire in 2012. The net operating loss carryforwards in the United Kingdom, Austria, Ireland and Brazil have no expiration date.

As of December 31, 2008, the Company had approximately $25.2 million of undistributed earnings related to its foreign subsidiaries. Management believes that these earnings will be indefinitely reinvested in foreign jurisdictions; accordingly, the Company has not provided for U.S. federal income taxes related to these earnings. However, upon distribution of these earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to both U.S. income taxes and withholding taxes payable to the various foreign countries. Due to the complex nature of U.S. and foreign tax laws, it is not practicable for the Company to estimate the amount of tax liability as a result of a distribution of its foreign subsidiaries’ earnings.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with FIN 48. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

 

     Years Ended December 31,  
             2008                     2007          
     (In thousands)

Balance at end of year

   $ 8,772      $ 12,338   
                

Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2008 are $8.1 million of tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective tax rate and $0.7 million of tax benefits that, if recognized, would increase additional paid-in capital. The Company also accrued potential penalties and interest of $0.5 million related to these uncertain tax positions during 2008, and in total, as of December 31, 2008, the Company has recorded a liability for potential penalties and interest of $1.3 million. During 2008, the Company received a favorable ruling regarding unrecognized state income tax benefits, resulting in the reduction of the uncertain tax liability including the interest accrual of $4.2 million. This favorable ruling resulted in approximately $2.7 million of net tax benefit being recognized in the consolidated statement of operations with the remaining $1.5 million being recorded as a reduction to the related deferred tax asset. In addition, due to the

potential resolution of federal, state and foreign tax examinations, and the expiration of various statutes of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits balance may change within the next twelve months by a range of zero to $1.2 million.

The Company and its subsidiaries file tax returns which are routinely examined by tax authorities in the U.S. and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination by the respective tax authorities for tax year 2005 to 2007 in the United States, for 2002 to 2005 in the United Kingdom and for 2005 to 2007 in France. The Company has various other on-going audits in various stages of completion. In general, the tax years 2005 through 2008 could be subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. In significant foreign jurisdictions, tax years 2002 through 2008 could be subject to examination by the respective tax authorities.

 

14. Employee Retirement Plans

The Company has a 401(k) defined contribution retirement plan (the “401(k) Plan”) covering substantially all U.S. employees. The 401(k) Plan provides for voluntary employee contributions from 1% to 50% of annual compensation, as defined, and provides for a discretionary employer matching contribution of 25% for each employee deferral contribution made during the plan year, up to 6% of the participant’s compensation. The Company also has defined contribution plans in certain foreign subsidiary locations in which the majority of employees in those locations participate. The amount of employer expenses including the employer contributions to the 401(k) Plan and foreign subsidiaries’ plans during the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 were $1,462,000, $900,000 and $727,000, respectively.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures (Restated)

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and (b) accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management, with participation by our CEO and CFO, has designed our disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance of achieving desired objectives. As of December 31, 2008 we carried out an evalutation, under the supervision of and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act). Based on the evaluation, as of December 31, 2008, our CEO and CFO originally concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

In connection with the restatement of our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008, our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has reevaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting with respect to our application of SOP 97-2 as it relates to the recognition of royalty revenue related to OEM contracts for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and our computation of our income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2008, as described below under “Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting (Restated).” Solely as a result of these material weaknesses, our CEO and CFO have revised their conclusions regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 and 2007. Accordingly, management now concludes that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and through the date of this filing.

In light of the material weaknesses referred to above, the Company performed additional analyses and procedures in order to conclude that its consolidated financial statements, for the years ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 (including restated interim periods therein) are fairly presented, in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP and has undertaken remediation initiatives as discussed below.

Other than as described above, during the three months ended December 31, 2008, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting (Restated)

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records, that in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance

regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In connection with the restatement discussed in the Explanatory Note to this Form 10-K/A and in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, under the direction of our CEO and CFO, management conducted a reevaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 and through the date of this filing. The framework on which such evaluation was based is contained in the report entitled “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO Report”). Under Audit Standard No. 5, a material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Based on the evaluation and the criteria set forth in the COSO Report, management identified the following material weaknesses as of December 31, 2008 and through the date of this filing:

There were deficiencies in our internal controls over the application of Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as it applies to the recording of our royalty revenue pursuant to arrangements with our OEM customers. These OEM contracts were acquired in our acquisition of SurfControl in October 2007 and contain multiple elements which require us to provide services over various contractual periods. Specifically, our failure to properly review the acquired OEM contracts caused us to not detect that our method of accounting for the royalty revenue upon being invoiced was not in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

There were also deficiencies in our internal controls over the computation of our income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2008. Specifically, our failure to properly reconcile the separate pre-tax bases in the individual subsidiary income tax provision calculations to the consolidated pre-tax earnings, together with the incorrect treatment of a valuation allowance in the tax reconciliation, caused us to not detect that a component of previously taxed income had not been eliminated in computing the tax provision.

These material weaknesses resulted in the accounting errors which have caused us to restate our consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 (including interim periods therein), and our consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009.

Based on its assessment, including consideration of the aforementioned material weaknesses, and the criteria discussed above, management has revised its conclusion relative to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. Accordingly, management now concludes that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective at a reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2008 and through the date of this filing.

Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements, has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting which is included herein.

 

Management’s Remediation Initiatives

We have taken and are taking the following actions to remediate the material weaknesses described above. We performed a detailed review of all OEM contracts, our billing and revenue systems, and processes for recording revenue. We are in the process of implementing stronger internal controls surrounding our review of

 

88


Table of Contents

contracts with our customers, including implementing a new system for review of each OEM contract to determine the maximum period of our performance obligations under each OEM contract, which are designed to detect any material errors and misapplication of revenue recognition principles. We are also in the process of reviewing our tax provisioning process to strengthen controls in terms of separation of the provisioning and review processes together with revising and improving the tools used for tax to financial statement reconciliations prior to and during the review process.

The Audit Committee has directed management to develop and present to the Committee a plan and timetable for the implementation of the remediation measures described above (to the extent not already implemented), and the Committee intends to monitor such implementation. We believe that the actions described above will remediate the material weakness control deficiencies we have identified and strengthen our control over financial reporting. As we improve our internal control over financial reporting and implement remediation measures, we may determine to supplement or modify the remediation measures described above.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Websense, Inc.

We have audited Websense, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Websense’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our report dated February 24, 2009, we expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. As described in the following paragraph, the Company subsequently identified material misstatements in its financial statements, which caused such annual financial statements to be restated. Accordingly, our opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, expressed herein is different from that expressed in our previous report.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The following material weaknesses have been identified and included in management’s assessment. Management has identified material weaknesses in its internal control over the application of generally accepted accounting principles and its application to the Company’s recognition of royalty revenue related to OEM contracts and over the computation of its income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2008. These material weaknesses were considered in determining the nature, timing and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2008 financial statements and this report does not affect our report dated February 24, 2009, except for the effects on the consolidated financial statements of the restatement described in Note 2, as to which the date is October 28, 2009, on those consolidated financial statements (as restated).

In our opinion, because of the effect of the material weaknesses described above on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, Websense, Inc. has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on the COSO criteria.
