The words “Selectica”, “we”, “our”, “ours”, “us”, and the “Company” refer to Selectica, Inc. This Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “10-K” or Report) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”).  In addition, we may make other written and oral communications from time to time that contain such statements. Forward-looking statements include statements as to industry trends and future expectations of ours and other matters that do not relate strictly to historical facts. These statements are often identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “estimate,” or “continue,” and similar expressions or variations. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of our management based on information currently available to management. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results and the timing of certain events to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of this 10-K and in our other Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) filings. Furthermore, such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Report.

Business
 
OVERVIEW
 
We are a business dedicated to enabling companies to close deals faster, more profitably, and with lower risk. Selectica is a team of passionate professionals committed to making our customers successful by developing and delivering innovative software solutions that improve the way they do business.
 
 
The Selectica Contract Lifecycle Management (“CLM” or “CM”) solution is a contract authoring, analysis, repository and process automation product designed to enhance and automate the management of the entire contract lifecycle. It helps companies take control of their contract management processes by converting from paper-based to electronic repositories and by unlocking multiple layers of critical business data, making it available for the evaluation of risk, the exposure of lost revenue, the evaluation of supplier performance, and other purposes. The solution helps to improve the customer buying experience for sales organizations, improve the control of risk and decrease time spent drafting, monitoring and managing contracts for the corporate counsel’s office and gain access to previously hidden discounts through the exposure and elimination of unfavorable agreements for procurement and sourcing organizations.
 
The Selectica Sales Configuration (“SCS”) solution consolidates configuration, pricing and quoting functions into a single application platform enabling companies to streamline the opportunity-to-order process for manufacturers, service providers, and financial services companies. Our SCS solution provides a critical link between Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems that helps to simplify and automate the configuration, pricing, and quoting of complex products and services. By empowering customers, internal sales staff, and/or channel partners to generate error-free sales proposals for their unique requirements, we believe our SCS solution helps companies to close sales faster, accelerate revenue generation and enhance customer relationships.
 
While the SCS and CLM products can interact, providing an integrated configuration to sales contract lifecycle management offering, they are managed as separate product lines given the differing stages of product lifecycle and buyer profiles. In addition to our software solutions, we offer professional implementation and customization. For CLM, on-demand hosting services are offered and for SCS, complex product configuration modeling services.
 
Selectica was incorporated in California in June 1996 and re-incorporated in Delaware in November 1999. The company’s principal executive offices are located at 1740 Technology Drive, Suite 460, San Jose, California, 95110 and its website is www.selectica.com.
 
SELECTICA PRODUCTS
 
Contract Management Solution
 
Our CLM solution enables customers to create, manage and analyze contracts in a single, easy to use repository and is offered both on-premise or hosted. We believe that our CLM software offers a high degree of flexibility enabling customers across many departments (e.g., sales, services, procurement, finance, IT, leasing or intellectual property) to model their specific contracting processes and to manage the lifecycle of a contract and its attendant multi-party relationship from creation through closure. We believe our CLM solutions meet the needs of many challenging and dynamic organizations:
 
 
Corporate legal organizations. The General Counsel’s office and other legal organizations can use the contract management solution to transform paper-bound contracts into a secure, centralized, searchable electronic contract repository and gain visibility and control of all corporate agreements.
 
 
Procurement organization. Procurement contract managers can use the contract management solution to expose off-contract spending.
 
 
Sales organization. Sales organizations can use the sales contract management solution to shorten the sales cycle and decrease time to revenue, while potentially protecting the company from inadvertent legal errors.
 
 
4

 
 
 
Finance organizations. Finance organizations can use the contract management solution to identify and account for non-standard terms and pricing in the revenue cycle while discovering unrealized revenue buried in sales agreements.
 
 
Contract Administration. Contract administrators can use the contract management solution to create visibility into contract obligations not captured by ERP and CRM and empower non-contract professionals to create and execute basic contracts.
 
We believe our CLM product is differentiated from competitive offerings because it is:
 
 
Adaptable. Adaptable, without sacrificing scalability or speed of implementation. The CLM solution is applicable to both buy and sell-side contracts. Our vertical expertise and advanced sell-side features such as flowdown, workflow and authoring tools help differentiate our CLM solution from its competitors.
 
 
Configurable. Combines the stability of rigid contract management software solutions with the flexibility of custom solutions by allowing companies to configure and update the product without expensive services and engineering support.
 
 
Flexible. Available On-Demand (SaaS) Hosted and Enterprise (On-Site / behind-the-firewall) deployment options using the same application platform.
 
 
Industry Customizable. Customizable for a broad array of contract types including procurement, sales, governance, healthcare provider, intellectual property, IT, equipment leasing, employee, real estate, partnership, supplier and services agreements.
 
 
Rapid Deployment. Our Contract Performance Management solution is delivered in an average of 90 days or less, which we believe is shorter than the average deployment times for many competitive software solutions.
 
 
Extensive Analytics and Reporting Capabilities. Enables detailed contract analysis and performance management by combining both structured and unstructured information stored in its contract repository.

Sales Configuration Solution
 
Our SCS solution guides users through the buying process, offering only valid options and features at each step. As a result, limited training is required for the sales force or channel partners, and customers can easily find and configure the solutions they seek. Unlike many competitive solutions, SCS enables virtually unlimited product configuration, pricing and quoting flexibility and provides tight integration with existing applications down to the bill of materials. We believe our configuration solution helps organizations reduce sales cycles and increase productivity through faster product development, easier product updates, automated sales processes (making self-service kiosks possible even for complex products and services) and seamless integration with existing Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Inventory Management, Manufacturing and ERP systems, thus helping to ensure order accuracy.
 
 
Our SCS products were designed to automate configuration for the largest, most complex product and services offerings. We believe that benefits of Selectica’s configuration solution include:
 
 
Increased Revenue. By enabling context-driven cross-sell and up-sell options, companies can increase incremental revenue. Additionally, the configuration solution enables users to combine lines of business to capture higher spend on a per customer basis.
 
 
Increased Channel Sales. By equipping channel partners with our easy-to-use, web-based, graphical interface to more easily sell complex products and services, companies can boost channel revenue.
 
 
Faster Time to Cash. By configuring complex products and services in minutes, rather than days or weeks, organizations can close deals more quickly and accelerate revenue generation.
 
 
Improved Margin. By incorporating pricing/margin during the configuration process, companies can create a configuration that meets user’s objectives at the lowest price for the company, which can improve margins.
 
 
Decreased Cost. By preventing rework and cancellations due to incorrect orders, companies can save money.
 
 
Customer Satisfaction. Our configuration solution ensures quote and order accuracy.
 
 
Flexibility. Our configuration solution can accommodate both sales configurations and manufacturing configurations, enabling our solution to be deployed to sales organizations, manufacturing organizations, or both. The configuration solution can also allow a very large number of SKU’s or offerings and a very large number of users.
 
We believe key technical differentiators of SCS from our competition include:
 
 
Declarative Constraint Engine (DCE). The DCE describes relationships among product features and components, allowing business logic to be modeled with simple declarative statements rather than complex programming. This approach also helps to simplify model processing and allows for a faster configuration process, even for highly complex products.
 
 
Efficient Modeling. Flexible modeling tools, easy-to-use wizards, automated business logic creation, and repositories of business logic help shorten the time required for development teams to deliver advanced capabilities and customize or update SCS-based applications.
 
 
Development Studio. SCS’s Development Studio’s Model Builder is a rich modeling tool that allows graphical modeling of products and services which are submitted to the Selectica Knowledge Base. A model profiler is also available for inspecting and measuring runtime execution of models.

Updates by non-technical personnel. In most organizations, business-critical information is stored in repositories, such as relational databases and other applications, and is updated very frequently. The SCS architecture allows changes in business-critical information to be automatically reflected in the application.
 
 
Flexible and Scalable Deployment. SCS is Java-based and can be deployed on a wide range of server hardware and web application servers, such as JBoss, Weblogic or Websphere. We have also introduced a laptop-based version of the configuration engine for real-time configuration at remote customer locations.
 
We also offer a Pricing Module which can integrate with SCS or third party applications to enable enterprises to efficiently manage pricing by seamlessly integrating marketing and selling pricing management processes. Efficiencies in price management can help companies realize greater profit margins and decrease SKU proliferation. We believe SCS delivers the ability to view, model, and dynamically change all aspects of an enterprise’s pricing management and execution processes.
 
Selectica Professional Services
 
We offer a range of services to ensure that the solutions meet users’ requirements. Our Professional Services team takes a best-practice, collaborative approach, applying their extensive experience with contract and configuration solutions. We provide these services using both our in-house expertise and that of third parties experienced in our solution acting under our direction. As of March 31, 2010, the Professional Services organization had 20 employees.
 
Employees
 
At March 31, 2010, we had a total of 58 employees, all located in the United States. 57 of our employees are full time and 1 is part time. Of the total, 13 are engaged in research and development, 20 are engaged in professional services, 15 are engaged in sales and marketing, and 10 are engaged in general & administration.  None of our employees are represented by a labor union and we consider our relations with our employees to be good.
 
Sales and Marketing
 
We sell our CM products primarily through our direct sales force along with strategic and OEM partners. Our SCS products are sold primarily through partnership relationships such as an existing relationship with IBM Global Services. As of March 31, 2010, our sales team consisted of 11 employees and our marketing team consisted of 4 employees.
 
Our CM direct sales force is complemented by business partners, supported by telesales and system engineering resources. We have developed programs to attract and retain high quality, motivated sales representatives that have the necessary technical skills and consultative sales experience. We have also developed specific partner relationships to expand our solutions and domain expertise into various targeted markets. We believe that the cultivation and integration of these support networks assists in both the establishment and enhancement of customer relationships.
 
Our marketing department is engaged in revenue-centered, sales-support and awareness-building activities, such as lead generation programs, web marketing, product management, public relations, advertising, speaking programs, seminars, sales collateral creation and production, direct mail, and event hosting.
 
Research and Development
 
To date, we have invested substantial resources in research and development. At March 31, 2010, we had 13 full-time engineers and technical writing specialists that primarily work on product development, documentation, quality assurance and testing. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, we incurred approximately $3.3 million and $4.2 million, respectively on research and development.
 
Enhancements to our existing products are released periodically to add new features, improve functionality and incorporate feedback and suggestions from our customers. These updates are usually provided as part of a separate maintenance agreement sold with the product license. We expect that enhancements to our existing products will be developed internally.

International Operations
 
On March 31, 2009 we sold the equity interest of our U.S. parent company in our wholly owned foreign subsidiary in India. The subsidiary had formerly provided development and professional services resources for our Sales Configuration group as well as acted as an interface to an outsourcing partner in India for development services for both of our product lines. As of the date of sale, the subsidiary had ceased to perform those functions and employed three people solely in administrative capacities. The sale was for cash consideration of $4.3 million ($1.0 million of which was held in escrow and released in early June 2009) and $0.4 million of forgiveness of intercompany debt. As of March 31, 2010 and 2009, we did not have any employees or operations outside the United States but we do business with a number of non-US based companies.
 
Competition
 
The contract management and sales configuration markets continue to be subject to rapid change. Competitors vary in size and in the scope and breadth of the products and services offered. We encounter competition primarily from (i) publicly-held and private software companies that offer integrated solutions or specific contract management and/or sales configuration solutions, (ii) information systems departments of potential or current customers that internally develop custom software, and (iii) professional services organizations.
 
We believe that the principal competitive factors affecting our market include product reputation, functionality, ease-of-use, ability to integrate with other products and technologies, quality, performance, price, customer service and support, and the vendors’ reputation. Although we believe that our products currently compete favorably with regard to such factors, we cannot assure you that we can maintain our competitive position against current and potential competitors. Increased competition may result in price reductions, less beneficial contract terms, reduced gross margins and loss of market share, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
 
Intellectual Property and Other Proprietary Rights
 
We rely on a combination of trademark, trade secret and copyright law and contractual restrictions to protect the proprietary aspects of our technology. These legal protections afford only limited protection for our technology. We currently hold six patents and five pending patents in the United States. In addition, we have various trademarks registered or pending registration in various jurisdictions. Our trademark and patent applications might not result in the issuance of any trademarks or patents. Our patents or any future issued patents or trademarks might be invalidated or circumvented or otherwise fail to provide us any meaningful protection. We seek to protect the source code for our software, documentation and other written materials under trade secret and copyright laws. We license our software pursuant to license agreements, which impose certain restrictions on the licensee’s ability to utilize the software. We also seek to avoid disclosure of our intellectual property by requiring employees and consultants with access to our proprietary information to execute confidentiality agreements. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. In addition, the laws of many countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets and to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Our failure to adequately protect our intellectual property could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.

Item 1A.
Risk Factors
Set forth below and elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K, and in the other documents we file with the SEC, are risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this annual report on Form 10-K . Prospective and existing investors are strongly urged to carefully consider the various cautionary statements and risks set forth in this annual report and our other public filings.
 
We have a history of significant losses and may incur significant losses in the future.
 
We incurred net losses of approximately $4.6 million and $8.4 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. We had an accumulated deficit of approximately $253.8 million as of March 31, 2010. We may continue to incur significant losses in the future for a number of reasons, including uncertainty as to the level of our future revenues and the timing and impact of our cost reduction efforts. We plan to continue to pursue opportunities to align research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses in absolute dollars over the next year in order to better balance expense levels with projected revenues, including potentially voluntarily delisting from The Nasdaq Global Market and deregistering under the Exchange Act. We will need to generate significant increases in our revenues to achieve and maintain profitability, particularly given the current small size of our business relative to the costs associated with being a public reporting company. If our revenue fails to grow or grows more slowly than we currently anticipate or our operating expenses exceed our expectations, our losses will significantly increase which would significantly harm our business and operating results.
 
We do not know the impact of current economic conditions on our customers and our business.
 
The United States and world economies currently face a number of economic challenges, including the availability of credit for businesses and consumers. The financial markets have been dramatically and adversely affected and many companies are either cutting back expenditures or delaying plans to add additional personnel or systems. If these conditions continue or worsen, the ability of our customers to pay for or obtain funding to pay for our products and services may be adversely affected which would then have a significant adverse impact on our ability to generate revenues and cash flow and may cause us to sustain further losses.
 
We are increasingly dependent on our CM business.
 
Revenues from our CLM business products increasingly exceed revenues from our SCS products. As a result, we are increasingly dependent on our CLM business and our business and operating results will be harmed if we are unable to successfully grow our CLM business in the future.
 
Our business could be seriously harmed as a result of recent management changes or if we lose the services of our key personnel.
 
During fiscal year 2010, we experienced a number of management changes, including the appointment of Todd Spartz as our Chief Financial Officer on September 14, 2009 and the promotion of Jason Stern to President and Chief Operating Officer on January 12, 2010. All members of our management team have been with us for a limited period of time. There can be no assurance that they will be effective in their roles or that they will not take some time before they achieve desired levels of performance. The loss of services of one or more members of our management team could seriously harm our business.
 
We have relied and expect to continue to rely on orders from a relatively small number of customers for a substantial portion of our revenues, and the loss of any of these customers would significantly harm our business and operating results.
 
Our revenues are dependent on orders from a relatively small number of customers. Our three largest customers accounted for approximately 33% of our revenues for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. We expect that we will continue to depend upon a relatively small number of customers for a substantial portion of our revenues for the foreseeable future. As a result, if we fail to successfully sell our products and services to one or more large customers in any particular period or a large customer purchases fewer of our products or services, defers or cancels orders, or terminates its relationship with us, our business and operating results would be harmed. In addition, many of our orders are realized at the end of the quarter. As a result of this concentration and timing, our quarterly operating results, including average selling prices, may fluctuate significantly if we are unable to complete one or more substantial sales in any given quarter.
 
 
9

 
 
Our annual and quarterly revenues and operating results are inherently unpredictable and subject to fluctuations, and as a result, we may fail to meet the expectations of security analysts and investors, which could cause volatility or adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.
 
We enter into arrangements for the sale of: (1) licenses of software products and related maintenance contracts; (2) services; (3) subscription for on-demand services; and (4) bundled license, maintenance, and services. In instances where maintenance is bundled with a license of software products, the maintenance term is typically one year. For each arrangement, we determine whether evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fees are fixed or determinable, and collection is probable. If any of these criteria are not met, revenue recognition is deferred until such time as all of the criteria are met.
 
Our annual and quarterly revenues may fluctuate due to our inability to perform services, achieve specific milestones and obtain formal customer acceptance of specific elements of the overall completion of a project. As we provide such services and products, the timing of delivery and acceptance, changed conditions with the customers and projects could result in changes to the timing of our revenue recognition, and thus, our operating results.
 
Likewise, if our customers do not renew maintenance services or purchase additional products, our operating results could suffer. Historically, we have derived and expect to continue to derive a significant portion of our total revenue from existing customers who purchase additional products or renew maintenance agreements. Our customers may not renew such maintenance agreements or expand the use of our products. In addition, as we introduce new products, our current customers may not require or desire the features of our new products. If our customers do not renew their subscriptions or maintenance agreements with us or choose not to purchase additional products, our operating results could suffer.
 
Because we rely on a limited number of customers, the timing of customer acceptance or milestone achievement, or the amount of services we provide to a single customer can significantly affect our operating results or the failure to replace a significant customer. Because expenses are relatively fixed in the near term, any shortfall from anticipated revenues could cause our quarterly operating results to fall below anticipated levels.
 
We may also experience seasonality in revenues. For example, our annual and quarterly results may fluctuate based upon our customers’ calendar year budgeting cycles. These seasonal variations may lead to fluctuations in our annual and quarterly revenues and operating results.
 
Our Contract Management customers license our software in a number of ways including perpetual licenses and subscriptions, which may be hosted in our third-party hosting center or on the customer’s own facilities. Historically the bulk of our license revenues have come from perpetual licenses which, if revenue recognition requirements are met, are recognized upon execution or release of contingencies, if any. Any trend towards our customers shifting to subscription licenses, which include maintenance and may include hosting, may affect our short-term financial results.
 
Based upon the foregoing, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and that such comparisons should not be relied upon as indications of future performance. In some future period, our operating results may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors, which could cause volatility or a decline in the price of our common stock.
 
Our future success depends on our proprietary intellectual property, and if we are unable to protect our intellectual property from potential competitors, our business may be significantly harmed.
 
We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, trade secret and copyright law and contractual restrictions to protect the proprietary aspects of our technology. These legal protections afford only limited protection for our technology. We currently hold six patents and five pending patents in the United States. In addition, we have various trademarks registered or pending registration in various jurisdictions. Our trademark and patent applications might not result in the issuance of any trademarks or patents. Our patents or any future issued trademarks might be invalidated or circumvented or otherwise fail to provide us any meaningful protection. We seek to protect the source code for our software, documentation and other written materials under trade secret and copyright laws. We license our software pursuant to license agreements, which impose certain restrictions on the licensee’s ability to utilize the software. We also seek to avoid disclosure of our intellectual property by requiring employees and consultants with access to our proprietary information to execute confidentiality agreements. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. In addition, the laws of many countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets and to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Regardless of the outcome, such litigation may require us to incur significant legal expenses and management time. Our failure to adequately protect our intellectual property could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.

In addition, we have in the past been subject to claims of third parties that our products and services infringe their intellectual property rights. For example, in October 2007 we agreed to settle a patent infringement lawsuit brought by Versata Enterprises, Inc. and a related party for a $10 million payment in October 2007 and an additional amount of not more than $7.5 million in quarterly payments. It is possible that in the future, other third parties may claim that our current or potential future products infringe their intellectual property rights. Any claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, divert management’s time from developing our business, cause product shipment delays, require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements or require us to satisfy indemnification obligations to our customers. Royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all, which could seriously harm our business.
 
Our lengthy sales cycle for our products makes it difficult for us to forecast revenue and exacerbates the variability of quarterly fluctuations, which could cause our stock price to decline.
 
The sales cycle of our products has historically averaged between nine to twelve months, and may sometimes be significantly longer. We are generally required to provide a significant level of education regarding the use and benefits of our products, and potential customers tend to engage in extensive internal reviews before making purchase decisions. In addition, the purchase of our products typically involves a significant commitment by our customers of capital and other resources, and is therefore subject to delays that are beyond our control, such as customers’ internal budgetary procedures and the testing and acceptance of new technologies that affect key operations. In addition, because we target large companies, our sales cycle can be lengthier due to the decision process in large organizations. As a result of our products’ long sales cycles, we face difficulty predicting the quarter in which sales to expected customers may occur. If anticipated sales from a specific customer for a particular quarter are not realized in that quarter, our operating results for that quarter could fall below the expectations of financial analysts and investors, which could cause our stock price to decline.
 
Developments in the market for enterprise software, including our CM and SC solutions, may harm our operating results, which could cause a decline in the price of our common stock.
 
The market for enterprise software, including CM and SC solutions, is evolving rapidly. In view of changing market trends, including vendor consolidation, the competitive environment growth rate and potential size of the market are difficult to assess. The growth of the market is dependent upon the willingness of businesses and consumers to purchase complex goods and services over the Internet and the acceptance of the Internet as a platform for business applications. In addition, companies that have already invested substantial resources in other methods of Internet selling may be reluctant or slow to adopt a new approach or application that may replace, limit or compete with their existing systems.
 
The rapid change in the marketplace poses a number of concerns. Any decrease in technology infrastructure spending may reduce the size of the market for contract management and sales configuration solutions. Our potential customers may decide to purchase more complete solutions offered by larger competitors instead of individual applications. If the market for contract management and sales configuration solutions is slow to develop, or if our customers purchase more fully integrated products, our business and operating results would be significantly harmed.
 
We face intense competition, which could reduce our sales, prevent us from achieving or maintaining profitability and inhibit our future growth.
 
The market for software and services that enable electronic commerce is intensely competitive and rapidly changing. We expect competition to persist and intensify, which could result in price reductions, reduced gross margins and loss of market share. Our principal competition comes from (i) publicly-held and private software companies that offer integrated solutions or specific contract management and/or sales configuration solutions and (ii) internally-developed solutions. Existing and potential competitors include public companies such as Oracle Corporation, Ariba, Open Text and AT&T (through its acquisition of Comergent Technologies) as well as privately held companies such as Upside Software, I-Many, Emptoris and Trilogy/Versata (through its acquisition of Nextance).
 
Our competitors may intensify their efforts in our market. In addition, other enterprise software companies may offer competitive products in the future. Competitors vary in size, in the scope and breadth of the products and services offered. Although we believe we have advantages over our competitors including the comprehensiveness of our solution, our use of Java technology and our multi-threaded architecture, some of our competitors and potential competitors have significant advantages over us, including:
 
 
11

 
 
·  
a longer operating history;
 
·  
preferred vendor status with our customers;
 
·  
more extensive name recognition and marketing power; and
 
·  
significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources, giving them the ability to respond more quickly to new or changing opportunities, technologies, and customer requirements.
 
Our competitors may also bundle their products in a manner that may discourage users from purchasing our products. Current and potential competitors may establish cooperative relationships with each other or with third parties, or adopt aggressive pricing policies to gain market share. Competitive pressures may require us to reduce the prices of our products and services. We may not be able to maintain or expand our sales if competition increases, and we are unable to respond effectively.
 
If we do not keep pace with technological change, including maintaining interoperability of our products with the software and hardware platforms predominantly used by our customers, our products may be rendered obsolete, and our business may fail.
 
Our industry is characterized by rapid technological change, changes in customer requirements, frequent new product and service introductions and enhancements and emerging industry standards. In order to achieve broad customer acceptance, our products must be compatible with major software and hardware platforms used by our customers. Our products currently operate on the Microsoft Windows NT, Sun Solaris, IBM AIX, J2EE, Linux and Microsoft Windows 2000 Operating Systems. In addition, our products are required to interoperate with electronic commerce applications and databases. We must continually modify and enhance our products to keep pace with changes in these operating systems, applications and databases. Our configuration, pricing and quoting products are complex, and new products and product enhancements can require long development and testing periods. If our products were to be incompatible with a popular new operating system, electronic commerce application or database, our business would be significantly harmed. In addition, the development of entirely new technologies to replace existing software could lead to new competitive products that have better performance or lower prices than our products and could render our products obsolete and unmarketable.
 
Our failure to meet customer expectations on deployment of our products could result in negative publicity and reduced sales, both of which would significantly harm our business and operating results.
 
In the past, a small number of our customers have experienced difficulties or delays in completing implementation of our products. We may experience similar difficulties or delays in the future. Deploying our products typically involves integration with our customers’ legacy systems, such as existing databases and enterprise resource planning software as well adding their data to the system. Failing to meet customer expectations on deployment of our products could result in a loss of customers and negative publicity regarding us and our products, which could adversely affect our ability to attract new customers. In addition, time-consuming deployments may also increase the amount of service personnel we must allocate to each customer, thereby increasing our costs and adversely affecting our business and operating result.
 
If we are unable to maintain our direct sales force, sales of our products and services may not meet our expectations, and our business and operating results will be significantly harmed.
 
We depend on our direct sales force for a significant portion of our current sales, and our future growth depends in part on the ability of our direct sales force to develop customer relationships and increase sales to a level that will allow us to reach and maintain profitability. If we are unable to retain qualified sales personnel or if newly hired personnel fail to develop the necessary skills or to reach productivity when anticipated, we may not be able to increase sales of our products and services, and our results of operation could be significantly harmed.
 
If we are unable to manage our professional services organization, we will be unable to provide our customers with technical support for our products, which could significantly harm our business and operating results.
 
Services revenues, which generated 79% and 78% of our total revenues during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, are comprised primarily of revenues from consulting fees, maintenance contracts and training and are important to our business. Services revenues have lower gross margins than license revenues. We generally charge for our professional services on a time and materials rather than a fixed-fee basis. To the extent that customers are unwilling to utilize third-party consultants or require us to provide professional services on a fixed-fee basis, our cost of services revenues could increase and could cause us to recognize a loss on a specific contract, either of which would adversely affect our operating results. If we do not properly manage our costs of professional services, we could adversely affect our operating results. In addition, if we are unable to provide these professional services, we may lose sales or incur customer dissatisfaction, and our business and operating results could be significantly harmed.

If new versions and releases of our products contain errors or defects, we could suffer losses and negative publicity, which would adversely affect our business and operating results.
 
Complex software products such as ours often contain errors or defects, including errors relating to security, particularly when first introduced or when new versions or enhancements are released. In the past, we have discovered defects in our products and provided product updates to our customers to address such defects. Our products and other future products may contain defects or errors that could result in lost revenues, a delay in market acceptance or negative publicity, each which would significantly harm our business and operating results.
 
Demand for our products and services will decline significantly if our software cannot support and manage a substantial number of users.
 
Our strategy requires that our products be highly scalable. To date, only a limited number of our customers have deployed our products on a large scale. If our customers cannot successfully implement large-scale deployments, or if they determine that we cannot accommodate large-scale deployments, our business and operating results would be significantly harmed.
 
If we become subject to product liability litigation, it could be costly and time consuming to defend and could distract us from focusing on our business and operations.
 
Since our products are company-wide, mission-critical computer applications with a potentially strong impact on our customers’ sales, errors, defects or other performance problems could result in financial or other damages to our customers. Although our license agreements generally contain provisions designed to limit our exposure to product liability claims, existing or future laws or unfavorable judicial decisions could negate such limitation of liability provisions. Product liability litigation, even if it were unsuccessful, would be time consuming and costly to defend.
 
Our results of operations will be reduced by charges associated with stock-based compensation, accelerated vesting associated with stock options issued to employees, charges associated with other securities issued by us, and charges related to variable accounting.
 
We have in the past and expect in the future to incur a significant amount of charges related to securities issuances, which will negatively affect our operating results. We adopted the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (ASC 718), using a modified prospective application effective April 1, 2006. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of our share-based payments and recognize compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods. This pronouncement from the FASB provides for certain changes to the method for valuing stock-based compensation. Among other changes, ASC 718 applies to new awards and to awards that are outstanding which are subsequently modified or cancelled. Compensation expense calculated under ASC 718 will continue to negatively impact our operating results.
 
Failure to improve and maintain relationships with systems integrators and consulting firms, which assist us with the sale and installation of our products, would impede the acceptance of our products and the growth of our revenues.
 
Our strategy has been to rely in part upon systems integrators and consulting firms to recommend our products to their customers and to install and deploy our products. To date, we have had limited success in utilizing these firms as a sales channel or as a provider of professional services. To increase our revenues and implementation capabilities, we must continue to develop and expand our relationships with these systems integrators and consulting firms. If these systems integrators and consulting firms are unwilling to install and deploy our products, we may not have the resources to provide adequate implementation services to our customers, and our business and operating results could be significantly harmed.
 
Some of our customers are hosted by a third-party provider.
 
Some of our CM customers’ licenses are hosted by a third-party data center provider under contract to us. Failure of the data center provider to maintain service levels as contracted could result in customer dissatisfaction, customer losses and potential product warranty or performance liabilities.
 
Our ongoing litigation with Trilogy, Inc. relating to our Rights Agreement could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 
On December 22, 2008, we filed suit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against Trilogy, Inc. and certain related parties (“Trilogy”) seeking declaratory relief that our Rights Agreement as amended on November 16, 2008 was an appropriate measure to protect a valuable asset of ours—our net operating loss carryforwards and related tax credits—from being limited as to utilization as provided under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) which could in turn substantially reduce the value of that asset to all of our shareholders. We sued Trilogy after (i) we amended our Rights Agreement on November 16, 2008 to reduce the ownership threshold from 15% to 4.99%, with existing 5% or greater shareholders limited to acquiring no more than an additional 0.5% and, (ii) despite the ownership threshold, Trilogy increased its beneficial ownership by 0.51% to 6.71% as announced in its 13(d) filing with the SEC on December 22, 2008. As a result, on January 2, 2009, a special committee of our Board of Directors declared Trilogy an “Acquiring Person” under the Rights Agreement, exchanged the rights (other than those belonging to Trilogy) for new shares of common stock under the Exchange Provision in the Rights Agreement, adopted an amended Rights Agreement and declared a new dividend of rights under the amended Rights Agreement.
 
 
13

 
 
On January 16, 2009, the defendants in this action, Trilogy, filed an answer to our complaint and a counterclaim alleging that our Board of Directors had breached fiduciary duties in amending the Rights Agreement, in exchanging the rights, in adopting the amended Rights Agreement and in declaring a new dividend of rights.  We, and our Board of Directors, believe that the actions taken were lawful and appropriate under the circumstances and in the interest of all our shareholders and therefore the allegations of the counterclaim were without merit.  The counterclaim asked for various measures of equitable relief and also included a claim for punitive or exemplary damages, which are not available in Delaware.  The case was tried in the Delaware Court of Chancery in 2009.
 
On February 26, 2010, the Delaware Court of Chancery issued a memorandum opinion that determined, among other things (i) that the actions taken by our Board of Directors and its special committee were lawful and appropriate under the circumstances, and (ii) that Trilogy was not entitled to relief for its counterclaims.  An appeal from this decision has been filed with the Delaware Supreme Court.  A decision on the appeal is expected in the third or fourth calendar quarter of 2010.
 
As the costs of this litigation and related legal work are directly related to the issuance of shares under our rights plan, the costs of the litigation have been charged as issuance costs against the additional paid in capital account on our balance sheet, less a reserve for anticipated recovery from our Director’s and Officer’s insurance policy, which is reflected in prepaid expenses and other current assets on our balance sheet. As of March 31, 2010 and 2009, the amounts charged to additional paid in capital were approximately $1.3 million and $2.0 million, respectively, and the anticipated recovery from our insurance policy was approximately $0.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
 
There can be no assurance that we will prevail in our current litigation with Trilogy. In the event that we are not successful in that litigation and Trilogy or any other investor substantially increases its ownership of our common stock, our ability to use our NOLs could be substantially and irrevocably limited by application of the restrictions of Section 382 of the IRC. We could also incur significant costs if the Court orders us to distribute additional shares or undertake other measures to remediate our actions taken against Trilogy. Moreover, even if we are successful, the resolution of the litigation has been expensive, time consuming and distracted management from the conduct of our business.
 
Anti-takeover defenses that we have in place could prevent or frustrate attempts by stockholders to change our board of directors or the direction of our company.
 
Provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, Delaware law and the stockholder rights agreement adopted by us on February 4, 2003, as subsequently amended and restated on January 2, 2009, may make it more difficult for or prevent a third party from acquiring control of us without approval of our directors. These provisions include:
 
·  
restricting the ability of stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders;
 
·  
prohibiting stockholder action by written consent;
 
·  
establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by stockholders at stockholder meetings;
 
·  
granting our board of directors the ability to designate the terms of and issue new series of preferred stock without stockholder approval; and
 
·  
issuing shareholders rights to purchase additional shares of stock in the event that any person, together with its affiliates and associates, (i) acquires beneficial ownership of 4.99% or more of our outstanding common stock or (ii) commences a tender offer for our shares if upon consummation of the tender offer such person would beneficially own 4.99% or more of the outstanding common stock, subject, in each case, to certain exceptions.
 
These provisions may have the effect of entrenching our board of directors and may deprive or limit your strategic opportunities to sell your shares.
 
See the immediately preceding risk factor and Item 1, “Legal Proceedings,” of Part II of this report.

Compliance with new regulations dealing with corporate governance and public disclosure may result in additional expenses and require significant management attention.
 
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as new rules implemented by the SEC and The NASDAQ Global Market, has required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. These rules are increasing our legal and financial compliance costs and causing some management and accounting activities to become more time-consuming and costly. This includes increased levels of documentation, monitoring internal controls, and increased manpower and use of consultants to comply. We have and will continue to expend significant efforts and resources to comply with these rules and regulations and have implemented a comprehensive program of compliance with these requirements and high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure.
 
These rules may also make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and may make us accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs for such coverage. The rules and regulations may also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified executive officers and members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our Audit Committee.
 
Restrictions on export of encrypted technology could cause us to incur delays in international product sales, which would adversely impact the expansion and growth of our business.
 
Our software utilizes encryption technology, the export of which is regulated by the United States government. If our export authority is revoked or modified, if our software is unlawfully exported or if the United States adopts new legislation restricting export of software and encryption technology, we may experience delay or reduction in shipment of our products internationally. Current or future export regulations could limit our ability to distribute our products outside of the United States. While we take precautions against unlawful exportation of our software, we cannot effectively control the unauthorized distribution of software across the Internet.
 
Unauthorized break-ins or other assaults on our computer systems could harm our business.
 
Our servers are vulnerable to physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions, which could lead to loss of data or public release of proprietary information. In addition, unauthorized persons may improperly access our data. These and other types of attacks could harm us. Actions of this sort may be very expensive to remedy and could adversely affect results of operations.
 
Changes to accounting standards and financial reporting requirements or tax laws, may affect our financial results.
 
We are required to follow accounting and financial reporting standards set by governing bodies in the U.S. and other countries where we do business. From time to time, these governing bodies implement new and revised laws and regulations. These new and revised accounting standards, financial reporting and tax laws may require changes to accounting principles used in preparing our financial statements. These changes may have a material impact on our business and financial results. For example, a change in accounting rules can have a significant effect on our reported results and may even affect our reporting of transactions completed before the change became effective. As a result, changes to existing rules or reconsideration of current practices caused by such changes may adversely affect our reported financial results or the way we conduct our business.
 
Increasing government regulation of the Internet could limit the market for our products and services, or impose greater tax burdens on us or liability for transmission of protected data.
 
As electronic commerce and the Internet continue to evolve, federal, state and foreign governments may adopt laws and regulations covering issues such as user privacy, taxation of goods and services provided over the Internet, pricing, content and quality of products and services. If enacted, these laws and regulations could limit the market for electronic commerce, and therefore the market for our products and services. Although many of these regulations may not apply directly to our business, we expect that laws regulating the solicitation, collection or processing of personal or consumer information could indirectly affect our business.

Legal Proceedings
 
Rights Agreement
 
On December 22, 2008, we filed suit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against Trilogy, Inc. and certain related parties (“Trilogy”) seeking declaratory relief that our Rights Agreement as amended on November 16, 2008 was an appropriate measure to protect a valuable asset of ours—our net operating loss carryforwards and related tax credits—from being limited as to utilization as provided under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) which could in turn substantially reduce the value of that asset to all of our shareholders. We sued Trilogy after (i) we amended our Rights Agreement on November 16, 2008 to reduce the ownership threshold from 15% to 4.99%, with existing 5% or greater shareholders limited to acquiring no more than an additional 0.5% and, (ii) despite the ownership threshold, Trilogy increased its beneficial ownership by 0.51% to 6.71% as announced in its 13(d) filing with the SEC on December 22, 2008. As a result, on January 2, 2009, a special committee of our Board of Directors declared Trilogy an “Acquiring Person” under the Rights Agreement, (exchanged the rights (other than those belonging to Trilogy) for new shares of common stock under the Exchange Provision in the Rights Agreement), adopted an amended Rights Agreement and declared a new dividend of rights under the amended Rights Agreement.
 
On January 16, 2009, the defendants in this action, Trilogy, filed an answer to our complaint and a counterclaim alleging that our Board of Directors had breached fiduciary duties in amending the Rights Agreement, in exchanging the rights, in adopting the amended Rights Agreement and in declaring a new dividend of rights.  We, and our Board of Directors, believe that the actions taken were lawful and appropriate under the circumstances and in the interest of all our shareholders and therefore the allegations of the counterclaim were without merit.  The counterclaim asked for various measures of equitable relief and also included a claim for punitive or exemplary damages, which are not available in Delaware.  The case was tried in the Delaware Court of Chancery in 2009.
 
On February 26, 2010, the Delaware Court of Chancery issued a memorandum opinion that determined, among other things (i) that the actions taken by our Board of Directors and its special committee were lawful and appropriate under the circumstances, and (ii) that Trilogy was not entitled to relief for its counterclaims.  An appeal from this decision has been filed with the Delaware Supreme Court.  A decision on the appeal is expected in the third or fourth calendar quarter 2010.
 
As the costs of this litigation and related legal work are directly related to the issuance of shares under our rights plan, the costs of the litigation have been charged as issuance costs against the additional paid in capital account on our balance sheet, less a reserve for anticipated recovery from our Director’s and Officer’s insurance policy, which is reflected in prepaid expenses and other current assets on our balance sheet.  As of March 31, 2010 and 2009, the amounts charged to additional paid in capital were approximately $1.3 million and $2.0 million, respectively, and the anticipated recovery from our insurance policy was approximately $0.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
 
Other
 
In the future we may be subject to other lawsuits, including claims relating to intellectual property matters or securities laws. Any litigation, even if not successful against us, could result in substantial costs and divert management’s and other resources away from the operations of our business. If successful against us, we could be liable for large damage awards and, in the case of patent litigation, subject to injunctions that significantly harm our business.

On February 9, 2010, our Board of Directors approved a one-for-twenty reverse stock split of Selectica common stock, effective February 24, 2010. The reverse stock split was intended to bring us in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rules related to the minimum trading price of the company’s common stock. The above stock prices have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

On January 2, 2009, a special committee of our Board of Directors declared Trilogy as an “Acquiring Person” under the Rights Agreement, and as a result, on February 4, 2009 we completed the distribution of 1.3 million shares to all existing shareholders (under the Exchange Provision in the Rights Agreement) other than Trilogy.
 
The trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to quarterly variations in operating results, announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors, changes in financial estimates or purchase recommendations by securities analysts and other events or factors. In addition, the stock market has experienced volatility that has affected the market prices of equity securities of many high technology companies and that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Stock Option Plans—Not Required to be Approved by Stockholders
 
2001 Supplemental Plan
 
We adopted the 2001 Supplemental Plan (the “Supplemental Plan”) on May 30, 2001; the Supplemental Plan did not require stockholder approval. A total of approximately 250,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance under the Supplemental Plan. With limited restrictions, if shares awarded under the Supplemental Plan are forfeited, those shares will again become available for new awards under the Supplemental Plan. The Supplemental Plan permits the grant of non-statutory options and shares of restricted stock. Employees and consultants, who are not officers or members of the Board of Directors, are eligible to participate in the Supplemental Plan. Options are granted at an exercise price of not less than 85% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant. Options generally vest with respect to 25% of the shares one year after the options’ vesting commencement date and the remainder vest in equal monthly installments over the following 36 months. Options granted under the Supplemental Plan have a maximum term of ten years.
 
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors administers the Supplemental Plan and has complete discretion to make all decisions relating to the interpretation and operation of the Supplemental Plan. The Compensation Committee has the discretion to determine which eligible persons are to receive an award, and to determine the type, number, vesting requirements and other features and conditions of each award. The exercise price of options may be paid with: cash, outstanding shares of common stock, the cashless exercise method through a designated broker, a pledge of shares to a broker or a promissory note. The purchase price for newly issued restricted shares may be paid with: cash, a promissory note or the rendering of past or future services. The Compensation Committee may reprice options and may modify, extend or assume outstanding options. The Compensation Committee may accept the cancellation of outstanding options in return for the grant of new options. The new option may have the same or a different number of shares and the same or a different exercise price. If a merger or other reorganization occurs, the agreement of merger or reorganization shall provide that outstanding options and other awards under the Supplemental Plan shall be assumed or substituted with comparable awards by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary, shall be continued by the Company if it is the surviving corporation, shall have accelerated vesting and then expire early or shall be cancelled for a cash payment. If a change in control occurs, awards will become fully exercisable and fully vested if the awards do not remain outstanding, are not assumed by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary and if the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary does not substitute its own awards that have substantially the same terms for the awards granted under the Supplemental Plan. If a change in control occurs and a plan participant is involuntarily terminated within 12 months following this change in control, then the vesting of awards held by the participant will accelerate, as if the participant provided another 12 months of service. A change in control includes: a merger or consolidation after which the then-current stockholders own less than 50% of the surviving corporation, a sale of all or substantially all of the assets, a proxy contest that results in replacement of more than one-half of the directors over a 24-month period or an acquisition of 50% or more of the outstanding stock by a person other than a person related to the Company, including a corporation owned by the stockholders. The Board of Directors may amend or terminate the Supplemental Plan at any time. The Supplemental Plan will continue in effect indefinitely unless the Board of Directors decides to terminate the plan earlier.
 
Dividend Policy
 
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock. Whether or not a dividend will be paid in the future will be determined by our Board of Directors.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations and estimates and assumptions concerning events and financial trends that may affect our future operating results or financial position. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the “Forward-Looking Statements” set forth above.
 
Overview
 
We provide contract management and sales configuration software solutions that allow enterprises to efficiently manage sell-side business processes. Our solutions include software, on demand hosting, professional services and expertise.
 
The Selectica Contract Lifecycle Management (“CLM” or “CM”) solution is a contract authoring, analysis, repository and process automation product designed to enhance and automate the management of the entire contract lifecycle. It helps companies take control of their contract management processes by converting from paper-based to electronic repositories and by unlocking multiple layers of critical business data, making it available for the evaluation of risk, the exposure of lost revenue and the evaluation of supplier performance, and other purposes. Our solution helps to improve the customer buying experience for sales organizations, improve the control of risk and decrease time spent drafting, monitoring and managing contracts for the corporate counsel’s office and gain access to previously hidden discounts through the exposure and elimination of unfavorable agreements for procurement and sourcing organizations.
 
The Selectica Sales Configuration (“SCS”) solution consolidates configuration, pricing and quoting functions into a single application platform enabling companies to streamline the opportunity-to-order process for manufacturers, service providers, and financial services companies. Our SCS solution provides a critical link between Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems that helps to simplify and automate the configuration, pricing, and quoting of complex products and services. By empowering customers, internal sales staff, and channel partners to generate error-free sales proposals for their unique requirements, we believe our SCS solution helps companies to close sales faster, accelerate revenue generation and enhance customer relationships.
 
Summary of Operating Results for Fiscal 2010
 
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, our total revenues decreased by 8%, or $1.2 million, to $15.2 million compared with total revenues of $16.4 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The results for 2010 reflect a shift of revenues from being primarily dependent on our SCS products to being primarily dependent on our CLM products. In fiscal 2010, CLM products and service revenues totaled $9.5 million or 63% of total revenues, representing a decrease of $0.4 million or 4% over fiscal 2009, whereas our SCS products and service revenues totaled $5.7 million or 37% of total revenues, representing a decrease of $0.8 million or 14% over fiscal 2009. These year over year decreases resulted primarily from lower consulting revenues across both business units as well as a decrease in our CM average selling prices.
 
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, our net loss declined by 45% or $3.8 million, to $4.6 million compared to a net loss of $8.4 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The most significant factors affecting the decline in our net loss are (i) decreases in costs for research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative, reflecting our ongoing emphasis on cost cutting efforts (ii) an increase in other income (expense), net due to unfavorable foreign exchange rate movements against the U.S. dollar during the prior fiscal year; our foreign exchange rate exposure has been significantly reduced with the sale of our Indian subsidiary on March 31, 2009, and (iii) a net benefit recorded for income taxes in fiscal 2010 compared to income tax expenses recorded in fiscal 2009.
 
Outlook for Fiscal 2011
 
We are anticipating a return to revenue growth in fiscal year 2011 after experiencing year over year revenue decline in fiscal 2010.  We expect that growth to be primarily driven from increased demand for our CLM products and services, with our SCS revenues remaining essentially flat.  We have been receiving renewed inbound interest in our SCS products and services recently and have market focused development initiatives scheduled for that product later in the year.  However, we don’t expect the benefits to be realized in fiscal year 2011 but more likely to occur in 2012.  Increased demand for our CLM products and services are expected to be derived from the considerable enhancements to the product, channel sales and a general improvement in the macroeconomic environment for software products and services.  Operationally, the company has reduced its operating expenses significantly over the past year and does not expect them to materially decrease going forward; however, there are opportunities for increased productivity and efficiency as we begin to focus on new business processes, systems, and tools given our new resource structure.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our significant accounting policies are described in notes accompanying the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements, and accordingly, actual results in future periods could differ from these estimates. Significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements apply critical accounting policies described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements.
 
We consider our recognition of revenue, calculation of liabilities and stock-based compensation to be the most critical judgments that are involved in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Total revenues

License. License revenues consist of revenue from licensing our software products.  Our fiscal 2010 license revenue decreased by $0.4 million from the prior year primarily due to lower average selling prices.
 
Services. Services revenues are comprised of fees from consulting, maintenance, training, subscription revenues and out-of pocket reimbursements. Services revenues for fiscal year 2010 decreased $0.9 million, or 7%, from the prior year, primarily due to lower consulting revenues provided by new and existing customer agreements in both the CM and SCS business units, respectively. Maintenance revenues were 50% and 44% of total service revenues for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010, and 2009, respectively.
 
We expect services revenues to continue to fluctuate in future periods as a percentage of total revenues and in absolute dollars. This will depend on new license revenue and the number and size of new software implementations and follow-on services to our existing customers. We expect maintenance revenue to fluctuate in absolute dollars and as a percentage of services revenues with respect to the number of maintenance renewals, and number and size of new license contracts. In addition, maintenance renewals are extremely dependent upon economic conditions, customer satisfaction and the level of need to make changes or upgrade versions of our software by our customers. Fluctuations in revenue are also due to timing of revenue recognition, achievement of milestones, customer acceptance, changes in scope or renegotiated terms, and additional services.
 
Factors Affecting Operating Results
 
A small number of customers in our SCS segment account for a significant portion of our total revenues. We expect that our revenue will continue to depend upon a limited number of customers. If we were to lose a customer, it would have a significant impact upon future revenue. Customers who accounted for at least 10% of total revenues were as follows:
 
   
2010
   
2009
 
Customer A
    15 %     18 %
Customer B
    10 %     *  

* Revenues were less than 10% of total revenues
 
We no longer have significant foreign activities. We anticipate that any exposure to foreign currency fluctuations will not be significant.

Total cost of revenues

Cost of License Revenues. Cost of license revenues consists of a fixed allocation of our research and development costs. During the fiscal year 2010, license costs were $0.2 million. We expect cost of license revenues to maintain a relatively consistent level in absolute dollars in fiscal year 2011.
 
Cost of Services Revenues. Cost of services revenues is comprised mainly of salaries and related expenses of our services organization plus certain allocated corporate expenses.  During fiscal 2010, these costs decreased by approximately $0.3 million primarily due to the decrease in the use of third-party consultants in both our CM and SCS business segments.
 
We expect cost of service revenues to fluctuate as a percentage of service revenues.

Gross Margin—Gross margins represent gross profit as a percentage of revenue. Gross margins in fiscal 2010 and 2009 were affected by the factors discussed above under “Revenues” and “Cost of Revenues”.
 
Gross Profit
 
Gross profit was $9.7 million, or 64% of revenues, in fiscal 2010 compared with $10.7 million, or 65% of revenues, in fiscal 2009. The decline in gross profit during fiscal year 2010 was due to the decrease in license and services revenues in both our CM and SCS business units.  This was partially offset by a reduction in our cost of services revenues due to utilizing less third-party consultants in our system implementation services.
 
SCS gross profit was $4.5 million, or 80% of revenues, in fiscal 2010 compared with $4.9 million, or 75% of revenues, in fiscal 2009. The decrease was due to reductions in license revenues year over year since we shifted our emphasis to the CM business in the prior fiscal year.  Professional services revenues also decreased year over year as a result of fewer arrangements with our SCS customers.  These decreases were partially offset by lower outside services costs.
 
CM gross profit was $5.2 million, or 54% of revenues, in fiscal 2010 compared with $5.7 million, or 58% of revenues, in fiscal 2009. The decrease in gross profit during fiscal year 2010 was due to a decrease in license revenues resulting from lower average selling prices.  Professional services revenues also decreased year over year as a result of larger arrangements in the prior fiscal year.  CM costs were relatively flat year over year.
 
We expect that our overall gross margins will continue to fluctuate due to the timing of service and license revenue recognition and will continue to be adversely affected by lower margins associated with service revenues. The impact on our gross margin will depend on the mix of services we provide, whether the services are performed by our professional services employees or third party consultants, and the overall utilization rates of our professional services organization.

Research and Development. Research and development expenses consist mainly of salaries and related costs of our engineering, quality assurance, technical publications efforts, and certain allocated expenses. The decrease in research and development expenses of $0.9 million in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal year 2009 was attributable primarily to reductions in headcount and decreases in costs for facilities, overhead and benefits. We expect research and development expenditures to increase modestly in absolute dollars over the next several years as we continue development in our CM products and integrate with tools provided by third parties.

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for our sales and marketing organization, sales commissions, expenses for travel and entertainment, trade shows, public relations, collateral sales materials, advertising and certain allocated expenses. In fiscal 2010, sales and marketing expenses decreased $1.8 million primarily due to decreases in expenditures in our SCS product line resulting from the shift to our CM business segment, and a reduction in headcount, which resulted in lower compensation costs compared to the prior fiscal year.  We expect modest reductions in sales and marketing expenses in fiscal 2011 compared to fiscal 2010 both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total revenues.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist mainly of personnel and related costs for general corporate functions, including finance, accounting, legal, human resources, bad debt expense and certain allocated expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased $0.2 million in fiscal 2010 compared with fiscal 2009 due to decreased expenditures for outside contractors, and lower payments to our board members who, in the previous fiscal year, assumed more active roles as a result of us not having a full time CEO, offset partially by an increase in general legal expenditures.  We expect modest reductions in general and administrative expenses in fiscal 2011 compared to fiscal 2010 both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total revenues.
 
Restructuring. Restructuring expenses consist primarily of personnel reductions and excess facility charges related to our cost realignment initiatives. The restructuring accrual and the related utilization for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 were (in thousands):
 
   
Severance and

During fiscal year 2010, we continued with cost reduction efforts.  In August 2010, we relocated the corporate headquarters to a smaller facility.  As a result of the relocation, we recorded a one-time charge of approximately $0.4 million for abandoned leasehold improvements.  In addition, we increased severance costs for reduced headcount and increased our excess facility accrual related to our corporate headquarters relocation in the amount of $0.6 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

Other income (expense), net consists primarily of expenses from the impact of foreign currency remeasurement, primarily from our Indian subsidiary (which was sold on March 31, 2009), interest expense on our note payable to Versata, and other miscellaneous expenditures.  In fiscal 2010, other income (expense), net increased $1.7 million primarily due to unfavorable foreign exchange rate movements against the U.S. dollar in the prior fiscal year.  Subsequent to the sale of our Indian subsidiary, our foreign exchange exposure has been substantially eliminated.  For more information on the sale of the Indian subsidiary, see Footnote 15 in our
consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Interest Income
 
   
2010
   
2009
   
Change
 
Interest income
  $ 50     $ 983     $ (933 )
 
Interest income consists primarily of interest earned on cash balances and short-term investments. Interest income decreased in fiscal year 2010 due to lower cash balances and lower interest rates due to a shift of our money to primarily money market accounts.  Interest rates throughout the marketplace were lower due to the low Federal Funds Rate established by the Federal Reserve during 2009.  We anticipate that interest income in fiscal 2011 will decline relative to fiscal 2010 as a result of lower cash balances and lower interest rates.
 
Provision for Income Taxes
 
We received an income tax benefit of approximately ($0.3 million) for fiscal year 2010 and incurred an income tax expense of approximately $0.2 million for fiscal year 2009.  As of March 31, 2010, we had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $174.3 million and $138.8 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2010, we also had federal and state research and development tax credit carryforwards of approximately $3.1 million and $4.5 million, respectively.
 
The fiscal 2010 and 2009 tax provisions vary from the expected provision or benefit at the U.S. federal statutory rate due to the recording of valuation allowances against our U.S. operating loss and the effects of different tax rates in our foreign jurisdictions. Given our history of operating losses and our inability to achieve profitable operations, it is difficult to accurately forecast how results will be affected by the realization of net operating loss carryforwards.
 
ASC 740 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. Based upon the weight of available evidence, which includes our historical operating performance and the reported cumulative net losses in all prior years, we have provided a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets. We will continue to evaluate the realizability of the deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis.
 
It should also be noted that the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (“Act”), signed into law in July 2008 and modified under the Economic Stimulus Act of 2009, allows taxpayers to claim refundable AMT or research and development credit carryovers if they forego bonus depreciation on certain qualified fixed assets placed in service from the period between April 2008 through December 2009.  During the twelve months ended March 31, 2010 we recorded a net income tax benefit of $33,000 for a U.S. federal refundable credit as provided by the Act.

Net cash provided by (used for) investing activities
  $ (212 )   $ 10,470  
Net cash used for financing activities
  $ (2,146 )   $ (2,808 )
 
Our primary sources of liquidity consisted of approximately $17.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of March 31, 2010 compared to approximately $23.5 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of March 31, 2009.

Net cash used in operating activities was $3.9 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010, resulting primarily from our net loss of $4.6 million, adjusted for non-cash expenses totaling $1.4 million, which included depreciation and amortization, losses on disposal of property and equipment, and stock-based compensation expense.  In addition, we had changes in assets and liabilities using $0.7 million in cash, driven primarily by a $2.5 million decrease in accounts payable and a $1.3 million decrease in restructuring liability, offset by a $1.4 million decrease in accounts receivable and a $1.9 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets.
 
 
24

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $8.0 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2009, resulting primarily from our net loss of $8.4 million, a $3.3 million increase in accounts receivable and a $1.6 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets. These decreases in cash flows from operating activities were partially offset by a $1.9 million increase in deferred revenues and a $2.7 million increase in accounts payable.
 
Net cash used for investing activities was $0.2 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010, resulting primarily from the purchase of capital assets.
 
Net cash provided by investing activities was $10.5 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2009, resulting primarily from $8.2 million of net proceeds of short-term investments, and $2.6 million in net proceeds from the sale of our Indian subsidiary, which was completed on March 31, 2009.
 
As a result of current adverse financial market conditions, investments in some financial instruments may pose risks arising from liquidity and credit concerns. Although we believe our current investment portfolio has very little risk of impairment, we cannot predict future market conditions or market liquidity and can provide no assurance that our investment portfolio will remain unimpaired.
 
Net cash used in financing activities was $2.1 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010, resulting primarily from $1.3 million in costs to defend our Rights Agreement, as well as $0.8 million of payments on our note payable to Versata.
 
Net cash used in financing activities was $2.8 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2009, resulting primarily from $2.0 million in costs to defend our Rights Agreement, as well as $0.8 million of payments on our note payable to Versata.
 
We expect to incur significant operating costs for the foreseeable future. We expect to fund our operating costs, as well as our future capital expenditures and liquidity needs, from a combination of available cash balances and internally generated funds. We have no outside debt, and do not have any plans to enter into borrowing arrangements. As a result, our net cash flows will depend heavily on the level of future sales, changes in deferred revenues, our ability to manage costs and ongoing legal proceedings.
 
We believe our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investment balances as of March 31, 2010 should be adequate to fund our operations through at least March 31, 2011. However, given the significant changes in our business and results of operations in the last 12 months, the fluctuation in cash and investment balances may be greater than presently anticipated.  After the next 12 months, we may find it necessary to obtain additional funds. In the event additional funds are required, we may not be able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all.

Our contractual obligations and commercial commitments at March 31, 2010 were approximately $5.1 million. We had no significant commitments for capital expenditures as of March 31, 2010.
 
We do not anticipate any significant capital expenditures, un-planned payments due on long-term obligations, or other contractual obligations. However, management is continuing to review the Company’s cost structure to minimize expenses and use of cash as it implements its planned business model changes. This activity may result in additional restructuring charges for severance and other benefits.

REPORT OF ARMANINO MCKENNA LLP, INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
 Selectica, Inc.

 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Selectica, Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2010. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited the financial statement schedule listed in Item 15b. These consolidated financial statements and related financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Selectica, Inc. at March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2010, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material aspects, the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.
Organization and Operations
 
Selectica, Inc. (the Company or Selectica) was incorporated in the State of California on June 6, 1996 and subsequently reincorporated in the State of Delaware on January 19, 2000. The Company was originally organized to provide configuration, pricing management and quoting solutions for automating customers’ opportunity to order process. In May 2005, the Company purchased Determine Software, Inc. and entered the contract management software business.
 
2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Reverse stock split
 
All share and per share information in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to a 1-for-20 stock split in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010.
 
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and those of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Fair value of financial instruments
 
The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate the fair value.
 
Foreign Currency Transactions
 
Foreign currency transactions at foreign operations are measured using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. Accordingly, monetary accounts (principally cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities) are remeasured into the U.S. dollar using the foreign exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Operational accounts and non-monetary balance sheet accounts are remeasured at the rate in effect at the date of a transaction. The impact of foreign currency remeasurement is reported in current operations, and in fiscal year 2009 was approximately a $1.4 million charge to earnings prior to the Company’s adoption of its hedging program in December 2008. The impact of foreign currency remeasurement was immaterial in the current year.
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and accounts receivable. The Company places its short-term investments in high-credit quality financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by these institutions to the extent of the amount recorded on the balance sheet. The Company’s cash balances periodically exceed the FDIC insured amounts. Investments are not protected by FDIC insurance.  As of March 31, 2010, the Company only has short-term investments in a certificate of deposit. Accounts receivable are derived from revenue earned from customers primarily located in the United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses, and historically, such losses have not been significant.
 
Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash equivalents consist of money market funds, certificates of deposits, and commercial paper. Debt securities with maturities less than one year are available-for-sale and are classified as short-term investments. All of the Company’s short-term investments were classified as available-for-sale as of the balance sheet dates presented and, accordingly, are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded net of tax as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Fair values of cash equivalents approximated original cost due to the short period of time to maturity. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. The Company’s investment policy limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer of debt securities.

SELECTICA, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
The Company monitors its investments for impairment on a quarterly basis and determines whether a decline in fair value is other-than-temporary by considering factors such as current economic and market conditions, the credit rating of the issuers, the length of time an investment has been below the Company’s carrying value, and the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investment to maturity. If a decline in fair value, caused by factors other than changes in interest rates, is determined to be other-than-temporary, an adjustment is recorded and charged to operations.
 
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
The Company evaluates the collectibility of its accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. When the Company believes a collectibility issue exists with respect to a specific receivable, the Company records an allowance to reduce that receivable to the amount that it believes to be collectible. In making the evaluations, the Company will consider the collection history with the customer, the customer’s credit rating, communications with the customer as to reasons for the delay in payment, disputes or claims filed by the customer, warranty claims, non-responsiveness of customers to collection calls, and feedback from the responsible sales contact. In addition, the Company will also consider general economic conditions, the age of the receivable and the quality of the collection efforts.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives for computer software and equipment is three years, furniture and fixtures is five years, and leasehold improvements is the shorter of the applicable lease term or estimated useful life.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
We enter into arrangements for the sale of: (1) licenses of software products and related maintenance contracts; (2) bundled license, maintenance, and services; (3) services; and (4) subscription for licenses, maintenance and/or other services. In instances where maintenance is bundled with a license of software products, the maintenance term is typically one year.
 
For each arrangement, the Company determines whether evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fees are fixed or determinable, and collection is probable. If any of these criteria are not met, revenue recognition is deferred until such time as all of the criteria are met.
 
Arrangements consisting of license and maintenance only. For those contracts that consist solely of license and maintenance, the Company recognizes license revenues based upon the residual method after all elements other than maintenance have been delivered. The Company recognizes maintenance revenues over the term of the maintenance contract because vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value for maintenance exists. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue. If vendor specific objective evidence does not exist to allocate the total fee to all undelivered elements of the arrangement, revenue is deferred until the earlier of the time at which (1) such evidence does exist for the undelivered elements, or (2) all elements are delivered. If unspecified future products are given over a specified term, the Company recognizes license revenue ratably over the applicable period. The Company recognizes license fees from resellers as revenue when the above criteria have been met and the reseller has sold the subject licenses through to the end-user.
 
Arrangements consisting of license, maintenance and other services. Services revenues can consist of maintenance, training and/or consulting services. Consulting services include a range of services including installation of off-the-shelf software, customization of the software for the customer’s specific application, data conversion and building of interfaces to allow the software to operate in customized environments.
 
In all cases, the Company assesses whether the service element of the arrangement is essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement. In this determination the Company focuses on whether the software is off-the-shelf software, whether the services include significant alterations to the features and functionality of the software, whether the services involve the building of complex interfaces, the timing of payments and the existence of milestones. Often the installation of the software requires the building of interfaces to the customer’s existing applications or customization of the software for specific applications. As a result, judgment is required in the determination of whether such services constitute “complex” interfaces. In making this determination the Company considers the following: (1) the relative fair value of the services compared to the software; (2) the amount of time and effort subsequent to delivery of the software until the interfaces or other modifications are completed; (3) the degree of technical difficulty in building of the interface and uniqueness of the application; (4) the degree of involvement of customer personnel; and (5) any contractual cancellation, acceptance, or termination provisions for failure to complete the interfaces. The Company also considers the likelihood of refunds, forfeitures and concessions when determining the significance of such services.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
In those instances where the Company determines that the service elements are essential to the other elements of the arrangement, the Company accounts for the entire arrangement under the percentage of completion contract method. The Company follows the percentage of completion method if reasonably dependable estimates of progress toward completion of a contract can be made. The Company estimates the percentage of completion on contracts utilizing hours and costs incurred to date as a percentage of the total estimated hours and costs to complete the project. Recognized revenues and profits are subject to revisions as the contract progresses to completion. Revisions in profit estimates are charged to income in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known. The Company also accounts for certain arrangements under the completed contract method, when the terms of acceptance and warranty commitments preclude revenue recognition until all uncertainties expire. To date, when the Company has been primarily responsible for the implementation of the software, where the services have been considered essential to the functionality of the software products, license and services revenues have been recognized.
 
For those contracts that include contract milestones or acceptance criteria, the Company recognizes revenue as such milestones are achieved or as such acceptance occurs.
 
For those contracts with unspecified future products and services which are not essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement, license revenue is recognized by the subscription method over the length of time that the unspecified future product is available to the customer.
 
In some instances the acceptance criteria in the contract require acceptance after all services are complete and all other elements have been delivered. In these instances the Company recognizes revenue based upon the completed contract method after such acceptance has occurred.
 
For those arrangements for which the Company has concluded that the service element is not essential to the other elements of the arrangement, the Company determines whether the services are available from other vendors, do not involve a significant degree of risk or unique acceptance criteria, and whether the Company has sufficient experience in providing the service to be able to separately account for the service. When services qualify for separate accounting, the Company uses vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value for the services and the maintenance to account for the arrangement using the residual method, regardless of any separate prices stated within the contract for each element.
 
Vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of services is based upon hourly rates. As previously noted, the Company enters into contracts for services alone, and such contracts are based on a time and materials basis. Such hourly rates are used to assess the vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value in multiple element arrangements.
 
Vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of maintenance is determined by reference to the price the customer will be required to pay when it is sold separately (that is, the renewal rate). Each license agreement offers additional maintenance renewal periods at a stated price. Maintenance contracts are typically one year in duration.
 
Arrangements consisting of consulting services. Consulting services consist of a range of services including installation of off-the-shelf software, customization of the software for the customer’s specific application, data conversion and building of interfaces to allow the software to operate in customized environments. Consulting services may be recognized based on customer acceptance in the form of customer-signed timesheets, invoices, cash received, or customer-signed acceptance as defined in the master service agreement.
 
Contract Management (CM) Arrangements. CM arrangements generate revenue from three principal sources: (1) perpetual licenses and related maintenance; (2) subscription revenues, which are comprised of subscription fees from customers accessing the Company’s on-demand application service, and from customers purchasing additional support beyond the standard support that is included in the basic subscription fee; and (3) related consulting services, consisting primarily of integration and training fees. Consulting services, when sold with subscription and support offerings, are accounted for separately when these services have stand-alone value to the customer, and there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value of the undelivered elements. In these circumstances, consulting service revenues are recognized as the services are rendered for time and material contracts, and when the milestones are achieved and accepted by the customer for fixed price contracts. Training revenues are recognized after the services are performed.
 
In determining whether the consulting services can be accounted for separately from subscription revenues, the Company considers the following factors for each consulting agreement: availability of the consulting services from other vendors, whether objective and reliable evidence for fair value exists for the undelivered elements, the nature of the consulting services, the timing of when the consulting contract was signed in comparison to the subscription arrangement, and the contractual dependence of the subscription service on the customer’s satisfaction with the consulting work. If a consulting arrangement does not qualify for separate accounting, we initially defer all revenue under the arrangement and then, when all consulting services have been delivered, we recognize the consulting and subscription revenues ratably over the remaining term of the subscription contract. In these situations we defer the costs of the consulting arrangement and amortize those costs over the same time period as the consulting revenue is recognized.

Warranties and Indemnifications
 
The Company’s products are generally warranted to perform substantially in accordance with the functional specifications set forth in the associated product documentation for a period of 90 days. In the event there is a failure of such warranties, the Company generally is obligated to correct the product to conform to the product documentation or, if the Company is unable to do so, the customer is entitled to seek a refund of the purchase price of the product or service. The Company has not provided for a warranty accrual as of March 31, 2010 and 2009. To date, the Company has not refunded any amounts in relation to the warranty.
 
The Company generally agrees to indemnify its customers against legal claims that the Company’s software infringes certain third-party intellectual property rights. In the event of such a claim, the Company is obligated to defend its customer against the claim and to either settle the claim at the Company’s expense or pay damages that the customer is legally required to pay to the third-party claimant. In addition, in the event of the infringement, the Company agrees to modify or replace the infringing product, or, if those options are not reasonably possible, to refund the purchase price of the software. To date, the Company has not been required to make any payment resulting from infringement claims asserted against its customers. As such, the Company has not provided for an indemnification accrual as of March 31, 2010 and 2009.
 
Advertising Expense
 
The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $49,000 and $117,000, respectively.
 
Development Costs
 
Software development costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are included in research and development expenses. The Company defines establishment of technological feasibility as the completion of a working model. Software development costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility through the period of general market availability of the products are capitalized, if material, after consideration of various factors, including net realizable value. To date, software development costs that are eligible for capitalization have not been material and have been expensed.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income or Loss
 
ASC 220 “Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive net income or loss and its components in stockholders’ equity. However, it has no impact on the Company’s net loss as presented in its financial statements. There was no accumulated other comprehensive income or loss at March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for only those shares ultimately expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, net of an estimated forfeiture rate.  The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes valuation model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the option’s expected term and stock price volatility.  In addition, judgment is also required in estimating the number of stock-based awards that are expected to be forfeited.  Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.  The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of share-based payment awards represent management’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment.  As a result, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board “FASB” issued the authoritative guidance to eliminate the historical GAAP hierarchy and establish only two levels of U.S. GAAP, authoritative and non-authoritative. When launched on July 1, 2009, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) became the single source of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The issuance of new standards is now in the form of Accounting Standards Updates that are included in the ASC. This authoritative guidance was effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods ended after September 15, 2009. The Company adopted the new codification in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and it did not have any impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
In September 2009, FASB amended the ASC as summarized in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (ASC 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.” Guidance in ASC 605-25 on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables has been amended to require an entity to allocate revenue to deliverables in an arrangement using its best estimate of selling prices if the vendor does not have vendor-specific objective evidence or third-party evidence of selling prices, and to eliminate the use of the residual method and require the entity to allocate revenue using the relative selling price method. The new guidance also requires expanded quantitative and qualitative disclosures about revenue from arrangements with multiple deliverables. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. Adoption may either be on a prospective basis for new revenue arrangements entered into after adoption of the update, or by retrospective application. The Company is assessing the potential impact of the update on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.”  This update will require (1) an entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements and to describe the reasons for the transfers; and (2) information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements to be presented separately (i.e. present the activity on a gross basis rather than net) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).  This guidance clarifies existing disclosure requirements for the level of disaggregation used for classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value and requires disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs.  The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosure are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure requirements for related to the purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the rollforward activity of Level 3 fair value measurements.  Those disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years ending after December 31, 2010.  The Company is still assessing the impact on this guidance and does not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact to its consolidated financial statements.

Litigation
 
Rights Agreement
 
On December 22, 2008, the Company filed suit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against Trilogy, Inc. and certain related parties (“Trilogy”) seeking declaratory relief that the Company’s Rights Agreement as amended on November 16, 2008 was an appropriate measure to protect a valuable asset – the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards and related tax credits – from being limited as to utilization as provided under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) which could in turn substantially reduce the value of that asset to all of the Company’s shareholders. The Company sued Trilogy after (i) it amended the Rights Agreement on November 16, 2008 to reduce the ownership threshold from 15% to 4.99%, with existing 5% or greater shareholders limited to acquiring no more than an additional 0.5% and (ii) despite the ownership threshold, Trilogy increased its beneficial ownership by 0.51% to 6.71% as announced in its 13(d) filing with the SEC on December 22, 2008.  As a result, on January 2, 2009, a special committee of the Company’s Board of Directors declared Trilogy an “Acquiring Person” under the Rights Agreement, exchanged the rights (other than those belonging to Trilogy) for new shares of common stock under the Exchange Provision in the Rights Agreement, adopted an amended Rights Agreement and declared a new dividend of rights under the amended Rights Agreement.  On January 16, 2009, the defendants in this action, Trilogy, filed an answer to the Company’s complaint and a counterclaim alleging that the Company’s Board of Directors had breached fiduciary duties in amending the Rights Agreement, in exchanging the rights, in adopting the amended Rights Agreement and in declaring a new dividend of rights.  The Company, and its Board of Directors, believes that the actions taken were lawful and appropriate under the circumstances and in the interest of all the Company’s shareholders and therefore the allegations of the counterclaim were without merit. The counterclaim asked for various measures of equitable relief and also included a claim for punitive or exemplary damages, which are not available in Delaware. The case was tried in the Delaware Court of Chancery in 2009.  On February 26, 2010, the Delaware Court of Chancery issued a memorandum opinion that determined, among other things (i) that the actions taken by the Company’s Board of Directors and its special committee were lawful and appropriate under the circumstances, and (ii) that Trilogy was not entitled to relief for its counterclaims.  An appeal from this decision has been filed with the Delaware Supreme Court.  A decision on the appeal is expected in the third or fourth calendar quarter of 2010.  As the costs of this litigation and related legal work are directly related to the issuance of shares under the Company’s rights plan, these costs have been charged as issuance costs against the additional paid-in capital (APIC) account on the Company’s balance sheet, less a reserve for both received and anticipated recoveries from the Company’s Director’s and Officer’s insurance policy.  Anticipated recoveries are reflected in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s balance sheet.

1999 Equity Incentive Plan
 
The Company adopted the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan (the “1999 Plan”) on November 18, 1999. A total of 220,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance under the 1999 Plan. On each January 1, starting in 2001, the number of shares reserved for issuance will be automatically increased by the lesser of 5% of the then outstanding shares of common stock or 180,000 shares.  The 1999 Plan was amended in May, 2010, such that the number of shares reserved for issuance is no longer automatically increased, a total of 1,551,000 shares are reserved for future issuance. With limited restrictions, if shares awarded under the 1999 Plan are forfeited, those shares will again become available for new awards under the 1999 Plan. The 1999 Plan permits the grant of options, stock appreciation rights, shares of restricted stock, and stock units. The types of options include incentive stock options that qualify for favorable tax treatment for the optionee under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and nonstatutory stock options not designed to qualify for favorable tax treatment. Employees, non-employee members of the Board of Directors and consultants are eligible to participate in the 1999 Plan. Each eligible participant is limited to being granted options or stock appreciation rights covering no more than 33,000 shares per fiscal year, except in the first year of employment where the limit is 66,000 shares. Incentive stock options are granted at an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value per share of the common stock on the date of grant, and nonstatutory stock options are granted at an exercise price of not less than 85% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant. Options generally vest with respect to 25% of the shares one year after the options’ vesting commencement date and the remainder vest in equal monthly installments over the following 36 months.

1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
 
On November 18, 1999, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the adoption of the 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”) and the Company’s stockholders have approved of the Purchase Plan. A total of 100,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance under the Purchase Plan. On each May 1, starting in 2001, the number of shares reserved for issuance will be automatically increased by the lesser of 2% of the then outstanding shares of common stock or 100,000 shares.
 
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors administers this plan. The Purchase Plan is intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Purchase Plan permits eligible employees to purchase common stock through payroll deductions, which may not exceed 15% of an employee’s cash compensation, at a purchase price equal to the lower of 85% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the beginning of each offering period or at the end of each purchase period. Employees who work more than five months per year and more than twenty hours per week are eligible to participate in the Purchase Plan. Stockholders who own more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock are excluded from participating in the Purchase Plan. Each eligible employee cannot purchase more than 500 shares per purchase date (1,000 shares per year) and, generally, cannot purchase more than $25,000 of stock per calendar year. Eligible employees may begin participating in the Purchase Plan at the start of an offering period. Each offering period lasts 24 months and consists of four consecutive purchase periods of six months duration. Two overlapping offering periods start on May 1 and November 1 of each calendar year. Employees may end their participation in the Purchase Plan at any time. Participation ends automatically upon termination of employment. The Board of Directors may amend or terminate the Purchase Plan at any time. If not terminated earlier, the Purchase Plan has a term of twenty years. If the Board of Directors increases the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Purchase Plan, other than any share increase resulting from the formula described in the previous paragraph, it must seek the approval of the Company’s stockholders.
 
2001 Supplemental Plan
 
The Company adopted the 2001 Supplemental Plan (the “Supplemental Plan”) on April 4, 2001, and the Supplemental Plan did not require stockholder approval. A total of approximately 250,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance under the Supplemental Plan. With limited restrictions, if shares awarded under the Supplemental Plan are forfeited, those shares will again become available for new awards under the Supplemental Plan. The Supplemental Plan permits the grant of non-statutory options and shares of restricted stock. Employees and consultants, who are not officers or members of the Board of Directors, are eligible to participate in the Supplemental Plan. Options are granted at an exercise price of not less than 85% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant. Options generally vest with respect to 25% of the shares one year after the options’ vesting commencement date and the remainder vest in equal monthly installments over the following 36 months. Options granted under the Supplemental Plan have a maximum term of ten years.

Computation of Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
 
Basic and diluted net loss per share has been computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  All share and per share information in the consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to a 1-for-20 stock split in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010.
 
The Company excludes potentially dilutive securities from its diluted net loss per share computation when their effect would be antidilutive to net loss per share amounts. The following common stock equivalents were excluded from the net loss per share computation:

ASC 740 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. Based on the weight of available evidence, which includes the Company’s historical operation performance and the reported cumulative net losses in all prior years, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

Net deferred tax assets
  $     $  
 
Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain.  Accordingly, the net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance that changed by $2.2 million and $8.2 million during 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
As of March 31, 2010, the Company had federal and state operating loss carryforwards of approximately $174.3 million and $138.8 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2010, the Company also had federal and state research and development tax credit carryforwards of $3.1 million and $4.5 million, respectively.
 
It should also be noted that the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (“Act”), signed into law in July 2008 and modified under the Economic Stimulus Act of 2009, allows taxpayers to claim refundable AMT or research and development credit carryovers if they forego bonus depreciation on certain qualified fixed assets placed in service from the period between April 2008 through December 2009.  During the twelve months ended March 31, 2010 the Company recorded a net income tax benefit of $33,000 from asset additions through December 31, 2009 for the U.S. federal refundable credit as provided by the Act.
 
The federal net operating loss and credit carryforwards begin to expire in 2012 through 2030, if not utilized. The state net operating loss carryforwards begin to expire in 2011 through various dates, if not utilized. The state tax credit carryforwards have no expiration date.
 
The Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limits the use of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards in certain situations where changes occur in the stock ownership of a company. In the event the Company has had a change in ownership, utilization of the carryforwards could be restricted.
 
Based on its most recently performed study, the Company has concluded it has not had a prior ownership change, as defined by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), which could limit the future realization of its net operating loss carryforwards since June 1999. Based on this recent study, the Company believes that the application of Section 382 will not result in the forfeiture of any net operating loss carryforward for federal income tax purposes and any net operating loss carryforward for California income tax purposes. Please note the net operating loss carryforwards above take into account this belief. Applicable taxing authorities could disagree if and when an income tax return is filed that utilizes some or all of these net operating loss carryforwards.
 
In addition, based on this recent study, the Company has concluded that none of the federal and California research tax credit carryforwards, respectively, would be subject to forfeiture due to Section 382 ownership changes under IRC Section 383 and/or possible credit amount reduction upon audit, but as noted above this is subject to review by the applicable taxing authority.
 
On April 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 740-10), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” In connection with the adoption, the Company has analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
On September 2, 2009 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-06, Implementation Guidance on Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes and Disclosure Amendments for Nonpublic Entities.  Under this new codification, FIN 48 has been incorporated into ASC Topic 740-10.  As with FIN 48, ASC 740-10 requires entities following GAAP to identify uncertain tax positions and disclose any potential tax liability on their financial statements using a two step process, which includes recognition and measurement.  As of March 31, 2010, the Company had approximately $1.98 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits, of which all would favorably affect its effective tax rate in future periods if recognized.  However, the Company currently has a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets which would impact the timing of the effective tax rate benefit should any of such uncertain tax position be favorably settled in the future.
 
The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expenses.  As of March 31, 2010, the Company has no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
 
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending unrecognized tax benefit amounts for fiscal year 2010 are as follows (in thousands):
 
   
Amount
 
Balance at April 1, 2009

Decreases related to expiration of tax credits and statute of limitations 
    (278 )
Balance at March 31, 2010
  $ 1,981  
 
The Company does not anticipate that its total unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change due to settlement of examination or expiration of the statute of limitation during the next twelve months.  The Company's federal, state and foreign tax returns are subject to examination by the tax authorities from 1997 to 2009 due to net operating loss and tax carryforwards unutilized from such years.
 
12.
401(k) Benefit Plan
 
Effective February 1998, the Company adopted a tax-deferred savings plan, the Selectica 401(k) Plan (the 401(k) Plan), for the benefit of qualified employees. The 401(k) Plan is designed to provide employees with an accumulation of funds at retirement. Qualified employees may elect to make contributions to the 401(k) Plan on a monthly basis. The 401(k) Plan does not require the Company to make any contributions. No contributions were made by the Company for the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. Administrative expenses relating to the 401(k) Plan are insignificant.

Restructuring
 
On June 10, 2009, the Company announced that it implemented a re-alignment and restructuring, reducing headcount from 64 at March 31, 2009 to 54 as of June 30, 2009. The Company recorded charges of approximately $1.2 million during the twelve months ending March 31, 2010, related primarily to severance arrangements and to the write-off of leasehold improvements at its corporate headquarters. The Company began occupying new space in its current building effective August 17, 2009.
 
During fiscal years 2009 and 2010, the Company continued with cost reduction efforts. The restructuring accrual and the related utilization for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were as follows (in thousands):

Segment Information
 
ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”, requires disclosures of certain information regarding operating segments, products and services, geographic areas of operation and major customers. ASC 280 reporting is based upon the “management approach”. This requires management to organize the Company’s operating segments for which separate financial information is: (i) available and (ii) evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
 
Selectica offers comprehensive consulting, training and implementation services and ongoing customer support and maintenance, to support its software applications. The business is focused towards delivering software and services under two operating segments (1) contract management, and (2) sales configuration.
 
The Selectica Contract Lifecycle Management (“CLM” or “CM”) solution is a contract authoring, analysis, repository and process automation component designed to enhance and automate the management of the entire contract lifecycle. It helps companies take control of their contract management processes by converting from paper-based to electronic repositories and by unlocking multiple layers of critical business data, making it available for the evaluation of risk, the exposure of lost revenue and the evaluation of supplier performance, and other purposes. The solution helps to improve the customer buying experience for sales organizations, improve the control of risk and decrease time spent drafting, monitoring and managing contracts for the corporate counsel’s office and gain access to previously hidden discounts through the exposure and elimination of unfavorable agreements for procurement and sourcing organizations.
 
The Selectica Sales Configuration (“SCS”) solution consolidates configuration, pricing and quoting functions into a single application platform enabling companies to streamline the opportunity-to-order process for manufacturers, service providers, and financial services companies. The Company’s SCS solution provides a critical link between Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems that helps to simplify and automate the configuration, pricing, and quoting of complex products and services. By empowering customers, internal sales staff, and/or channel partners to generate error-free sales proposals for their unique requirements, the Company believes its SCS solution helps companies to close sales faster, accelerate revenue generation and enhance customer relationships.
 
The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on segment revenue and segment operating income (loss). Segment operating income (loss) is comprised of income before unallocated selling, general and administrative expenses, interest income and other income (expense), net.  Segment information for total assets, capital expenditures and depreciation is not presented as such information is not used in measuring segment performance or allocating resources between segments.

Sale of Indian Subsidiary
 
On March 31, 2009, the Company sold the equity interest of its U.S. parent company in its wholly owned foreign subsidiary in India. The subsidiary had formerly provided development and professional services resources for the Sales Configuration group as well as acted as an interface to an outsourcing partner in India for development services for both product lines. The sale was for a cash consideration of $4.3 million ($1.0 million of which was held in escrow and released in early June 2009) and $0.4 million of forgiveness of intercompany debt. The Company recorded a net $0.9 million loss on sale, which included a non-cash charge of $2.6 million due to the liquidation of the subsidiary, on its consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.

Controls and Procedures.
 
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by the rule and forms of the SEC.  Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures for each fiscal quarter during the period ended March 31, 2010.  Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2010.
 
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act).  Internal control over financial reporting means a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers (or persons performing similar functions), and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, 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 and 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 issuer; (ii) provide reasonable assurances that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures 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 our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
 
Our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010 based on the guidelines established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
 
Based upon our evaluation of internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2010.
 
This 10-K does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this 10-K.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
 
52

 
 
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
 
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer (or persons performing those functions), do not expect that our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
