CERNER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(1)      Interim Statement Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our latest annual report on Form 10-K.
In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Our interim results as presented in this Form 10-Q are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the entire year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). These principles require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the results of operations or stockholders’ equity as previously reported.
Our second fiscal quarter ends on the Saturday closest to June 30. The 2010 and 2009 second quarters ended on July 3, 2010 and July 4, 2009, respectively. All references to years in these notes to condensed consolidated financial statements represent the three or six months ended of the second fiscal quarters, respectively, unless otherwise noted.
(2)      Acquisitions
On January 4, 2010, we completed the purchase of 100% of the outstanding common shares of IMC Health Care, Inc. (IMC), a provider of employer sponsored on-site health centers. The acquisition of IMC expanded our employer health initiatives, such as on-site employer health centers, occupational health services and wellness programs. Consideration for this transaction was $15.7 million in cash plus additional contingent consideration, which is payable if we achieve certain revenue milestones during the fiscal year 2010 from the clients acquired from IMC. We valued the contingent consideration at $1.7 million based on a probability-weighted assessment of potential contingent consideration payment scenarios ranging up to $2.5 million. The allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the identified tangible and intangible assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, is summarized below:

Table of Contents

The fair values of the acquired intangible assets and the contingent consideration were estimated by applying the income approach. Such estimations required the use of inputs that were unobservable in the market place (Level 3), including a discount rate that we estimated would be used by a market participant in valuing these assets, projections of revenues and cash flows, probability weighting factors and client attrition rates. See Note 3 for further information about the fair value level hierarchy.
The goodwill was allocated to our Domestic operating segment and is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The other identifiable intangible assets are being amortized over five years. The operating results of IMC were combined with our operating results subsequent to the purchase date of January 4, 2010. Pro-forma results of operations have not been presented because the effect of this acquisition was not material to our results.
(3)     Fair Value Measurements
We determine fair value measurements used in our condensed consolidated financial statements based upon the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
   
Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.
 
   
Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
 
   
Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The following table details our financial assets measured at fair value within the fair value hierarchy:

Our auction rate securities have been classified as Level 3 assets within the fair value hierarchy, as their valuation requires substantial judgment and estimation of factors that are not currently observable in the market due to the lack of trading in the securities. If different assumptions were used for the various inputs to the valuation, including, but not limited to, assumptions involving the estimated holding periods for the auction rate securities, the estimated cash

flows over those estimated lives, and the estimated discount rates, including the liquidity discount rate, applied to those cash flows, the estimated fair value of these investments could be significantly higher or lower than the fair value we determined.
The table below presents the activity of our assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

We classify our long-term, fixed rate debt as a long-term liability on the balance sheet and estimate the fair value using a Level 3 discounted cash flow analysis based on our current borrowing rates for debt with similar maturities. The fair value of our long-term debt, including current maturities, was approximately $120.6 million at July 3, 2010.
(4)     Receivables
Receivables consist of accounts receivable and contracts receivable. Accounts receivable represent recorded revenues that have been billed. Contracts receivable represent recorded revenues that are billable by us at future dates under the terms of a contract with a client. Billings and other consideration received on contracts in excess of related revenues recognized are recorded as deferred revenue. Substantially all receivables are derived from sales and related support and maintenance and professional services of our clinical, administrative and financial information systems and solutions to healthcare providers located throughout the United States and in certain non-U.S. countries.
We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our clients and generally do not require collateral from our clients. We provide an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts based on specific identification, historical experience and our judgment. Provisions for losses on uncollectible accounts for the first six months of 2010 and 2009 totaled $6.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively. A summary of net receivables is as follows:

During the second quarter of 2008, Fujitsu Services Limited’s (Fujitsu) contract as the prime contractor in the National Health Service (NHS) initiative to automate clinical processes and digitize medical records in the Southern region of England was terminated by the NHS. This had the effect of automatically terminating our subcontract for the project. We are in dispute with Fujitsu regarding Fujitsu’s obligation to pay the amounts comprised of accounts receivable and contracts receivable related to that subcontract, and we are working with Fujitsu to resolve these issues based on processes provided for in the contract. Part of that process requires resolution of disputes between Fujitsu and the NHS regarding the contract termination. As of July 3, 2010, it remains unlikely that the matter will be resolved in the next 12 months. Therefore these receivables have been classified as long-term and represent the significant majority of other long-term assets as of the second quarter ended July 3, 2010. While the ultimate collectability of the receivables pursuant to this process is uncertain, we believe that we have valid and equitable grounds for recovery of such amounts and that collection of recorded amounts is probable.
During the first six months of 2010 and 2009, we received total client cash collections of $930.7 million and $893.7 million, respectively, of which $25.3 million and $31.1 million were received from third party arrangements with non-recourse payment assignments.

(5)      Income Taxes
We determine the tax provision for interim periods using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter we update our estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if our estimated tax rate changes we make a cumulative adjustment. We classify interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Our effective tax rate was 35.4% and 34.0% for the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. This increase is primarily due to the research and development tax credit not being extended for the 2010 tax year.
During the first quarter of 2010, the Internal Revenue Service commenced its examination of the 2008 income tax return. We do not believe this examination will have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
Other than the aforementioned matter, we do not anticipate any settlements of the remaining unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.
(6)      Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in our earnings. A reconciliation of the numerators and the denominators of the basic and diluted per share computations are as follows:

In addition, the computation of diluted earnings per share does not include 118,000 performance based non-vested stock awards, as all necessary conditions of such contingently issuable shares have not been satisfied.

but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options were anti-dilutive. In addition, the computation of diluted earnings per share does not include 118,000 performance based non-vested stock awards, as all necessary conditions of such contingently issuable shares have not been satisfied.
(7)     Share-Based Compensation
On March 12, 2010 approximately 115,000 stock options were granted to executive officers and other executive level associates under our Long-Term Incentive Plan F. These awards will vest 40% on March 12, 2012, and 20% will vest on March 12, 2013, 2014 and 2015. The fair value of each of these awards was $44.89 per award. Total compensation expense related to these awards is $5.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a period of 5 years.
On June 1, 2010 we granted approximately 118,000 shares of performance-based non-vested stock to certain executive officers, pursuant to our Long-Term Incentive Plan F. The fair value of each of these awards was $81.90 based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. These awards will vest according to the following schedule, contingent upon a relative adjusted GAAP earnings growth percentage over 2009 for each respective year and subjective performance criteria for certain shares, as defined in the award agreements:
         
 
Vesting Dates   Number of Shares  
 
June 1, 2011
    14,000  
June 1, 2012
    15,500  
June 1, 2013
    88,500  
       
  Total Shares
    118,000  
       
Subsequent to July 3, 2010, approximately 21% of the total shares related to this award were forfeited due to the resignation of an executive officer. The amount of compensation expense recognized is based on management’s estimate of the most likely outcome and will be reassessed at each reporting date through the final vesting date, which may result in adjustments to compensation cost. Based on a current period vesting probability assessment, total compensation cost related to these awards is $7.6 million, net of forfeitures, and is expected to be recognized over a period of 3 years.
The following table presents the total compensation expense recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations with respect to stock options, non-vested shares and Associate Stock Purchase Plan shares:

As of July 3, 2010, there was $60.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options granted under all plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.27 years.
(8)      Comprehensive Income
Total comprehensive income, which includes net earnings, foreign currency translation adjustments and gains and losses from a hedge of our net investment in the United Kingdom (U.K.), amounted to $43.5 million and $53.7 million for the three months ended July 3, 2010 and July 4, 2009, respectively, and $87.1 million and $89.2 million for the six months ended July 3, 2010 and July 4, 2009, respectively. None of the items within comprehensive income, including net earnings, relate to non-controlling interests.
As of July 3, 2010, we designated all of our Great Britain Pound (GBP) denominated long-term debt as a net investment hedge of our U.K. operations. The objective of the hedge is to reduce our foreign currency exposure in the U.K. subsidiary investment. Changes in the exchange rate between the United States Dollar (USD) and GBP, related to the

notional amount of the hedge, are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), to the extent the hedge is effective.

We recognize foreign currency transaction gains and losses within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of general and administrative expenses. We realized a foreign currency gain of $0.7 million and a loss of $1.6 million during the three months ended July 3, 2010 and July 4, 2009, respectively, and a gain of $0.6 million and $3.9 million during the six months ended July 3, 2010 and July 4, 2009, respectively.
(9)     Contingencies
The terms of our software license agreements with our clients generally provide for a limited indemnification of such intellectual property against losses, expenses and liabilities arising from third party claims based on alleged infringement by our solutions of an intellectual property right of such third party. The terms of such indemnification often limit the scope of and remedies for such indemnification obligations and generally include a right to replace or modify an infringing solution. To date, we have not had to reimburse any of our clients for any losses related to these indemnification provisions pertaining to third party intellectual property infringement claims. For several reasons, including the lack of prior indemnification claims and the lack of a monetary liability limit for certain infringement cases under the terms of the corresponding agreements with our clients, we cannot determine the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, related to such indemnification provisions.
From time to time we are involved in routine litigation incidental to the conduct of our business, including for example, employment disputes and litigation alleging solution defects, intellectual property infringement, violations of law and breaches of contract and warranties. We believe that no such routine litigation currently pending against us, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
(10)     Segment Reporting
We have two operating segments, Domestic and Global. Revenues are derived primarily from the sale of clinical, financial and administrative information systems and solutions. The cost of revenues includes the cost of third party consulting services, computer hardware and sublicensed software purchased from computer and software manufacturers for delivery to clients. It also includes the cost of hardware maintenance and sublicensed software support subcontracted to the manufacturers. Operating expenses incurred by the geographic business segments consist of sales and client service expenses including salaries of sales and client service personnel, communications expenses and unreimbursed travel expenses. Performance of the segments is assessed at the operating earnings level and, therefore, the segment operations have been presented as such. “Other” includes expenses such as software development, marketing, general and administrative, share-based compensation expense and depreciation that have not been allocated to the operating segments. It is impractical for us to track assets by geographical business segment.
Accounting policies for each of the reportable segments are the same as those used on a consolidated basis. The following table presents a summary of the operating information for the three and six months ended July 3, 2010 and July 4, 2009.

Management Overview
Our revenues are primarily derived by selling, implementing and supporting software solutions, clinical content, hardware, healthcare devices and services that give healthcare providers secure access to clinical, administrative and financial data in real time, allowing them to improve the quality, safety and efficiency in the delivery of healthcare. We implement the healthcare solutions as stand-alone, combined or enterprise-wide systems. Cerner Millennium® software solutions can be managed by our clients or in our data centers via a managed services model.
Our fundamental strategy centers on creating organic growth by investing in research and development (R&D) to create solutions and services for the healthcare industry. This strategy has driven strong growth over the long-term, as reflected in five- and ten-year compound annual revenue growth rates of 13% or more. This growth has also created a very strategic footprint in healthcare, with Cerner® solutions licensed by over 8,500 facilities, including approximately 2,300 hospitals; 3,400 physician practices with over 30,000 physicians; 600 ambulatory facilities, such as laboratories, ambulatory centers, cardiac facilities, radiology clinics and surgery centers; 700 home health facilities; and 1,500 retail pharmacies. Selling additional solutions back into this client base is an important element of our future revenue growth. We are also focused on driving growth through market share expansion by replacing competitors in healthcare settings that are looking to replace their current healthcare information technology (HIT) partners or those who have not yet strategically aligned with a supplier.

Table of Contents

We expect to drive growth through new initiatives and services that reflect our ongoing ability to innovate and expand our reach into healthcare. Examples of these include our CareAware® healthcare device architecture and devices, Healthe employer services, Cerner ITWorksSM services, Cerner RevWorksSM services, physician practice solutions and solutions and services for the pharmaceutical market. Finally, we are focused on selling our solutions and services outside of the United States. Many non-U.S. markets have a low penetration of HIT solutions and their governing bodies are in many cases focused on HIT as part of their strategy to improve the quality and lower the cost of healthcare.
Beyond our strategy for driving revenue growth, we are also focused on earnings growth. Similar to our history of growing revenue, our net earnings have increased at more than 20% compound annual rates over five- and ten-year periods. We believe we can continue driving strong levels of earnings growth while also leveraging key areas to create operating margin expansion. The primary areas of opportunity for margin expansion include:
   
becoming more efficient at implementing our software by leveraging implementation tools and methodologies we have developed that can reduce the amount of effort required to implement our software;
 
   
leveraging our investments in R&D by addressing new markets that do not require significant incremental R&D but can contribute significantly to revenue growth; and
 
   
leveraging our scalable business infrastructure to reduce the rate of increase in general and administrative spending to below our revenue growth rate.
We are also focused on increasing cash flow by growing earnings, reducing the use of working capital and controlling capital expenditures.
Healthcare Information Technology Market
Overall, while the weak global economy has impacted and could continue to impact our business, we believe there are several factors that are favorable for the HIT industry. Because HIT solutions play an important role in healthcare by improving safety, efficiency and reducing cost, they are often viewed as more strategic than other potential purchases. Most United States healthcare providers also recognize that they must invest in HIT to meet regulatory, compliance and government reimbursement requirements. In addition, with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services estimating United States healthcare spending at $2.5 trillion or 17.3 percent of 2009 Gross Domestic Product, politicians and policymakers agree that the growing cost of our healthcare system is unsustainable. Leaders of both parties say the intelligent use of information systems will improve health outcomes and, correspondingly, drive down costs. They cite a 2005 study by RAND Corp., which estimated that the widespread adoption of HIT in the United States could cut healthcare costs by $162 billion annually.
In 2009, the broad recognition that HIT is essential to helping control healthcare costs contributed to the inclusion of HIT incentives in the American Recovery and reinvestment Act (ARRA). The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) provisions within ARRA include more than $35 billion to incent healthcare organizations to modernize operations through meaningful use of HIT. We believe these incentives will create a period of increased demand for HIT solutions and services in the United States and that Cerner is well positioned to benefit due to our large footprint in United States hospitals and physician practices and our proven ability to deliver value.
Another dynamic in the United States marketplace is the recently passed healthcare reform legislation. We believe the legislation, which promises to drive insurance coverage to an estimated 32 million additional consumers, will have many second order effects on our clients. For example, healthcare providers may face increased volumes that could create capacity constraints, and they may find it challenging to profitably provide care at the rates reimbursed under the expanded coverage models. There will also be additional compliance and reporting challenges for our clients in the area of pay-for-quality and waste, fraud, and abuse measures. We believe these challenges are strong incentives for providers to maximize efficiency and create the need for our clients to further leverage HIT investments, all of which represent a long-term positive for HIT.
Outside of the United States, the economy has impacted and could continue to impact our results in almost all regions. However, we believe revenue growth opportunities outside the United States remain significant because other countries are also grappling with increased healthcare spending, safety concerns and inefficient care, and many of these countries recognize HIT as an important part of the solution to these issues.

In summary, while the current economic environment has impacted our business, the fundamental value proposition of HIT remains strong. The HIT industry will likely benefit as healthcare providers and governments continue to recognize that these solutions and services contribute to safer, more efficient healthcare.
Results Overview
The Company delivered strong levels of bookings, revenues, earnings and cash flows in the second quarter of 2010. New business bookings revenue, which reflects the value of executed contracts for software, hardware and professional services and managed services, was $467.8 million in the second quarter of 2010, which was an increase of 19% compared to $394.0 million in the second quarter of 2009. Revenues for the second quarter of 2010 increased 13% to $456.0 million compared to $403.8 million in the year-ago quarter. The year-over-year increase in revenue in the second quarter reflects improved economic conditions and demand driven by the stimulus incentives.
Second quarter 2010 net earnings were $55.5 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.65. Second quarter 2009 net earnings were $43.7 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.52. Second quarter 2010 and 2009 net earnings and diluted earnings per share reflect the impact of shared-based compensation expense. Share-based compensation expense reduced second quarter 2010 net earnings and diluted earnings per share by $3.7 million and $0.04, respectively, and second quarter 2009 earnings and diluted earnings per share by $2.3 million and $0.03, respectively.
The growth in net earnings and diluted earnings per share was driven primarily by improved revenue growth and continued progress with our margin expansion initiatives, particularly leveraging R&D investments and controlling general and administrative expenses. Our second quarter 2010 operating margin was 18.9%, which is 250 basis points higher than the year-ago quarter and reflects continued progress towards our long-term goal of achieving 20% operating margins.
We had strong cash collections of receivables of $447.0 million in the second quarter of 2010 compared to $436.0 million in the second quarter of 2009. Days sales outstanding decreased to 88 days in the second quarter of 2010 compared to 89 days in the first quarter of 2010 and 100 days in the second quarter of 2009. The majority of the year-over-year decline is driven by the reclassification of our Fujitsu receivable to other long term assets during the fourth quarter of 2009, which is not included in our days sales outstanding calculation. Operating cash flows for the second quarter of 2010 were strong at $110.2 million compared to $67.9 million in the second quarter of 2009.

Revenues & Backlog
Revenues increased 13% to $456.0 million for the second quarter 2010 from $403.8 million for the same period in 2009.
   
System sales, which include revenues from the sale of software, technology resale (hardware and sublicensed software), deployment period licensed software upgrade rights, installation fees, transaction processing and subscriptions, increased 19% to $135.9 million for the second quarter of 2010 from $114.3 million for the same period in 2009. The increase in system sales was driven by a strong increase in licensed software and sublicensed software.
 
   
Support and maintenance revenues increased 4% to $128.0 million during the second quarter of 2010 from $123.7 million during the same period in 2009. The increase is attributable to growth in Cerner Millennium applications for which support billing has been initiated.
 
   
Services revenue, which includes professional services excluding installation, and managed services, increased 16% to $183.6 million from $157.8 million for the same period in 2009. This increase is driven by growth in CernerWorksSM managed services as a result of continued demand for our hosting services and an increase in professional services due to increased implementation activities.
Contract backlog, which reflects new business bookings that have not yet been recognized as revenue, increased 24% in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. This increase was driven by growth in new business bookings during the past four quarters, including continued strong levels of managed services bookings that typically have longer contract terms. A summary of our total backlog follows:

Costs of Revenue
Cost of revenues remained flat at 17% of total revenues in the second quarter of 2010 and 2009. The cost of revenues includes the cost of reimbursed travel expense, third party consulting services and subscription content, computer hardware and sublicensed software purchased from hardware and software manufacturers for delivery to clients. It also includes the cost of hardware maintenance and sublicensed software support subcontracted to the manufacturers. Such costs, as a percent of revenues, typically have varied as the mix of revenue (software, hardware, maintenance, support, services and reimbursed travel) carrying different margin rates changes from period to period. Costs of revenues does not include the costs of our client service personnel who are responsible for delivering our service offerings, such costs are included in sales and client service expense.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses increased 8% to $291.4 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $270.8 million for the same period in 2009. Share-based compensation expense recognized impacted expenses as indicated below:

General and administrative expenses as a percent of total revenues were 7%, in the second quarter of 2010, as compared to 8% for the same period in 2009. These expenses decreased 2% to $33.4 million in the second quarter of 2010, from $34.0 million for the same period in 2009. General and administrative expenses include salaries for corporate, financial and administrative staffs, utilities, communications expenses, professional fees, transaction gains or losses on foreign currency and expense for share based payments. We recorded a net transaction gain on foreign currency of $0.7 million and a net transaction loss on foreign currency of $1.6 million in the second quarters of 2010 and 2009, respectively, which accounted for the majority of the overall decrease in general and administrative expenses.
Non-Operating Items
   
Net interest income was $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2010 compared to net interest expense of $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2009. Interest income remained nearly flat at $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2010 compared to $2.0 million for the same period in 2009. Interest expense decreased to $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2010 from $2.1 million for the same period in 2009, due primarily to long-term debt payments made in the fourth quarter of 2009.
 
   
Other expense was $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared to other income of $0.2 million for the same period in 2009. Other income and expense in the second quarters 2010 and 2009 includes offsetting unrealized gains and losses included in earnings related to our auction rate securities and put-like settlement feature in the amounts of $4.4 million and $3.1 million, respectively. Refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources within this MD&A and Note 3 of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on our auction rate securities.
 
   
Our effective tax rate was 36% for the second quarter of 2010 and 34% for the second quarter of 2009. This increase is primarily due to the research and development tax credit not being extended for the 2010 tax year.

Support and maintenance revenues increased 3% to $255.1 million during the first six months of 2010 from $248.1 million during the same period in 2009. The increase is attributable to growth in Cerner Millennium applications for which support billing has been initiated.
 
   
Services revenue, which includes professional services excluding installation, and managed services, increased 15% to $363.5 million from $317.1 million for the same period in 2009. This increase is driven by growth in CernerWorks managed services as a result of continued demand for our hosting services and an increase in professional services due to increased implementation activities.
Contract backlog, which reflects new business bookings that have not yet been recognized as revenue, increased 24% in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. This increase was driven by growth in new business bookings during the past four quarters, including continued strong levels of managed services bookings that typically have longer contract terms. A summary of our total backlog follows:

Costs of Revenue
Cost of revenues was 16% of total revenues in the first six months of 2010, as compared to 17% in the same period of 2009. The cost of revenues includes the cost of reimbursed travel expense, third party consulting services and subscription content, computer hardware and sublicensed software purchased from hardware and software manufacturers for delivery to clients. It also includes the cost of hardware maintenance and sublicensed software support subcontracted to the manufacturers. Such costs, as a percent of revenues, typically have varied as the mix of revenue (software, hardware, maintenance, support, services and reimbursed travel) carrying different margin rates changes from period to period. Costs of revenues does not include the costs of our client service personnel who are responsible for delivering our service offerings, such costs are included in sales and client service expense.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses increased 8% to $579.0 million in the first six months of 2010, compared with $535.6 million for the same period in 2009. Share-based compensation expense recognized impacted expenses as indicated below:

Sales and client service expenses as a percent of total revenues were 43% in the first six months of 2010 and 2009. These expenses increased 9% to $377.6 million in the first six months of 2010, from $345.0 million in the same period of 2009. Sales and client service expenses include salaries of sales and client service personnel, depreciation and other expenses associated with our CernerWorks managed service business, communications expenses, unreimbursed travel expenses, expense for share-based payments, sales and marketing salaries and trade show and advertising costs. The increase was primarily attributable to growth in the managed services business, a higher level of professional services expenses and an increase in bad debt expense.
 
   
Software development expense increased 4% to $134.8 million for the first six months of 2010 compared to $129.8 million for the same period in 2009. The increase in software development costs is related to increased development activity on Cerner Millennium and related solutions. The small amount of increase reflects our ongoing efforts to control spending growth relative to revenue growth. A summary of our total software development expense is as follows:

General and administrative expenses as a percent of total revenues were 8%, in the first six months of 2010 and 2009. These expenses increased 10% to $66.6 million in the first six months of 2010, from $60.8 million for the same period in 2009. General and administrative expenses include salaries for corporate, financial and administrative staffs, utilities, communications expenses, professional fees, transaction gains or losses on foreign currency and expense for share based payments. We recorded a net transaction gain on foreign currency of $0.6 million and $3.9 million in the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively, which along with an increase in corporate personnel costs, accounted for the majority of the overall increase in general and administrative expenses.

Non-Operating Items
   
Net interest income was $2.2 million in the first six months of 2010 compared to net interest expense of $0.5 million in the first six months of 2009. Interest income increased to $5.8 million in the first six months of 2010 from $3.7 million for the same period in 2009, due primarily to growth in investments and an increase in investment returns. Interest expense decreased to $3.6 million in the first six months of 2010 from $4.2 million for the same period in 2009, due primarily to long-term debt payments made in the fourth quarter of 2009.
 
   
Other expense was $0.6 million in the first six months of 2010, compared to other income of $0.4 million for the same period in 2009. Other income and expense in the first six months of 2010 and 2009 includes offsetting unrealized gains and losses included in earnings related to our auction rate securities and put-like settlement feature in the amounts of $5.7 million and $9.4 million, respectively. Refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources within this MD&A and Note 3 of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on our auction rate securities.
 
   
Our effective tax rate was 35% for the first six months of 2010 and 34% for the first six months of 2009. This increase is primarily due to the research and development tax credit not being extended for the 2010 tax year.

Global Segment
   
Revenues increased 11% to $151.0 million in the first six months of 2010 from $136.3 million in the same period in 2009. This increase was driven by improved licensed software and support revenue, mostly from the United Kingdom and Middle East regions, as well as a change in estimates for certain contracts that rely on estimates as part of contract accounting.
 
   
Cost of revenues was 14% of revenues in the first six months of 2010, compared with 15% in the same period of 2009.
 
   
Operating expenses decreased 1% to $64.1 million for the first six months of 2010, from $64.5 million in the same period in 2009.
Other, net
Operating results not attributed to an operating segment include expenses, such as software development, marketing, general and administrative, stock-based compensation and depreciation. These expenses increased 6% to $305.9 million in the first six months of 2010 from $288.6 million in the same period in 2009. This increase was primarily due to growth in corporate personnel costs and by the previously discussed impact of foreign currency transaction gains and losses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity is influenced by many factors, including the amount and timing of our revenues, our cash collections from our clients and the amounts we invest in software development, acquisitions and capital expenditures.
Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash, cash equivalents (which consist of money market funds), time deposits, and bonds with original maturities of less than 90 days and short-term investments. At July 3, 2010, we had cash of $210.4 million, cash equivalents of $45.4 million and short-term investments of $376.7 million compared to cash of $144.8 million, cash equivalents of $97.0 million and short-term investments of $317.1 million at January 2, 2010.
Additionally, we maintain a $90 million, multi-year revolving credit facility, which provides an unsecured revolving line of credit for working capital purposes. Interest is payable at a rate based on prime or LIBOR plus a spread that varies depending on the net worth ratios maintained. The agreement contains certain net worth, current ratio and fixed charge coverage covenants and provides certain restrictions on our ability to borrow, incur liens, sell assets and pay dividends. The current agreement expires on May 31, 2013. As of July 3, 2010, we had no outstanding borrowings under this agreement and were in compliance with all covenants.
We believe that our present cash position, together with cash generated from operations, short-term investments and, if necessary, our available lines of credit, will be sufficient to meet anticipated cash requirements during 2010.
During the second quarter of 2008, Fujitsu Services Limited’s (Fujitsu) contract as the prime contractor in the National Health Service (NHS) initiative to automate clinical processes and digitize medical records in the Southern region of England was terminated by the NHS. This had the effect of automatically terminating our subcontract for the project. We are in dispute with Fujitsu regarding Fujitsu’s obligation to pay the amounts comprised of accounts receivable and contracts receivable related to that subcontract, and we are working with Fujitsu to resolve these issues based on processes provided for in the contract. Part of that process requires resolution of disputes between Fujitsu and the NHS regarding the contract termination. As of July 3, 2010, it remains unlikely that the matter will be resolved in the next 12 months. Therefore these receivables have been classified as long-term and represent the significant majority of other long-term assets as of the first quarter ended July 3, 2010. While the ultimate collectability of the receivables pursuant to this process is uncertain, we believe that we have valid and equitable grounds for recovery of such amounts and that collection of recorded amounts is probable.
In February and March 2008, liquidity issues in the global credit markets resulted in the progressive failure of auctions representing all the auction rate securities held by us. During the fourth quarter of 2008, we entered into a settlement agreement with the investment firm that sold us the auction rate securities. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, we received the right to redeem the securities at par value during a period from mid-2010 through mid-2012. The settlement is in effect a put-like instrument with a fair value generally equal to the difference between the auction rate securities’ fair value and par value. In the fourth quarter of 2009, these securities were reclassified to short term investments based on our intention to exercise the put-like settlement feature and redeem the securities

within the next year. At July 3, 2010, we held auction rate securities with a par value of $30.9 million and an estimated fair value of $27.2 million.
We anticipate that any future changes in the fair value of the put-like feature will be offset by the changes in the fair value of the related auction rate securities with no material net impact to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We do not expect the auction failures to impact our ability to fund our working capital needs, capital expenditures or other business requirements.

Cash from Operating Activities
Cash flow from operations increased in the first six months of 2010 as compared to the same period of 2009 due primarily to the increase in cash impacting earnings and cash provided by working capital. During the first six months of 2010 and 2009, we received total client cash collections of $930.7 million and $893.7 million, respectively, of which 3% and 4%, respectively, were received from third party client financing arrangements and non-recourse payment assignments. Days sales outstanding decreased to 88 days for the second quarter of 2010 compared to 89 days in the first quarter of 2010 and 100 days in the second quarter of 2009. The majority of this year-over-year decline is driven by the reclassification of our Fujitsu receivable to other long-term assets during the fourth quarter of 2009, which is not included in our days sales outstanding calculation. Revenues provided under support and maintenance agreements represent recurring cash flows. Support and maintenance revenues increased 3% in the first six months of 2010 compared to the first six months of 2009. We expect these revenues to continue to grow as the base of installed Cerner Millennium systems grows.

Cash flows from investing activities consist primarily of capital spending and our short-term investment activities. Capital spending consists of capitalized equipment purchases primarily to support growth in our CernerWorks managed services business, capitalized land, building and improvement purchases to support our facilities requirements and capitalized spending to support our ongoing software development initiatives. Capital spending in 2010 is expected to approximate our 2009 levels.
In addition, during the first quarter 2010, we completed our acquisition of IMC Health Care, Inc. for approximately $14.5 million, net of the cash acquired.

Our primary financing obligations are long-term debt repayments. In the fourth quarter of 2009, we commenced payment on the first of seven equal annual installments on our 5.54% Great Britain Pound denominated Note Agreement as well as on the first of four equal annual installments on our 6.42% Series B Senior Notes. Based on debts currently outstanding and current exchange rates, we expect our debt repayments to approximate $25 million per year through 2012 and approximately $15 million per year from 2013 through 2016.

     $ 65,603        $ 25,080        $ 118,482        $ 61,445  
 
       
Free Cash Flow increased $41 million in the second quarter of 2010 and increased $57 million in the first six months of 2010, as compared to the same respective periods in 2009, which we believe reflects continued strengthening of our earnings quality. Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management along with GAAP results to analyze its earnings quality and overall cash generation of the business. The presentation of Free Cash Flow is not meant to be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results and investors should be aware that non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Free Cash Flow may also be different from similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and may not be comparable to similarly titled captions of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation. We believe Free Cash Flow is important to enable investors to better understand and evaluate our ongoing operating results and allows for greater transparency in the review of our overall financial, operational and economic performance.

Item 4.  
Controls and Procedures
  a)  
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by the Quarterly Report (the Evaluation Date). They have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, these disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries would be made known to them by others within those entities and would be disclosed on a timely basis. The CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed, and are effective, to give reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. They have also concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
  b)  
There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the three months ended July 3, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal controls over financial reporting.
 
  c)  
The Company’s management, including its CEO and CFO, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and are effective at that reasonable assurance level. However, the Company’s management can provide no assurance that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting can prevent all errors and all fraud under all circumstances. 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 the Company have been or will be detected. 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.
