NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has adopted certain regulations regarding the use of financial measures that differ from measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The SEC may take the view that the non-GAAP financial measures and ratios included in this offering memorandum, including, for example, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and ratios utilizing Adjusted EBITDA do not comply with these regulations and may require us to remove them from, or change the way we report our non-GAAP financial measures in, the registration statement in order to comply with such regulations. Any modification or reformulation of our historical or pro forma financial information or any other information in the registration statement that we present in this offering memorandum as a result of comments by the SEC could be significant.

We have included certain non-GAAP financial measures in this offering memorandum, including earnings before the cumulative effect of accounting change, interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We believe that EBITDA is a useful financial metric to assess our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. We believe that EBITDA will provide investors with a useful tool for assessing the comparability between periods of our ability to generate cash from operations sufficient to pay taxes, to service debt and to undertake capital expenditures. We use EBITDA for business planning purposes and in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors.

We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are measures commonly used by investors to evaluate our performance and that of our competitors. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP and our use of the terms EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA varies from others in our industry. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or operating cash flows or as measures of liquidity.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

 

•

exclude certain tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;

 

•

do not reflect any cash capital expenditure requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future;

 

•

do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and

 

•

do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt.

In calculating Adjusted EBITDA, we add back certain non-cash, non-recurring and other items that are included in EBITDA and net income as required by various covenants in the indenture governing the notes and our new Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

The following table shows the reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from the most directly comparable GAAP measure:

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following pro forma condensed combined financial information has been developed by applying pro forma adjustments to the individual historical audited consolidated financial statements of Epicor and Activant included elsewhere in this offering memorandum. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations of Eagle Parent, Inc. is presented to show how Eagle Parent, Inc. might have looked if the Transactions had occurred on October 1, 2009. The unaudited condensed combined balance sheet has been prepared giving effect to the Transactions as if they had been completed on March 31, 2011.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information includes unaudited pro forma adjustments that are factually supportable and directly attributable to the Acquisition. In addition, with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, the unaudited pro forma adjustments are expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805 – Business Combinations and are based on Activant’s historical audited and Epicor’s historical unaudited financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2010 and Activant’s and Epicor’s historical unaudited financial statements for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the twelve months ended March 31, 2011.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information also includes the presentation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2011 (the “Pro Forma LTM Period”). The Pro Forma LTM Period is calculated as follows: (i) the unaudited condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended September 30, 2010; plus (ii) the unaudited condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended March 31, 2011; less (iii) the unaudited condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended March 31, 2010; and (iv) adjusted for the appropriate pro forma adjustments for the twelve month period ended March 31, 2011.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations do not include the following non-recurring items: (i) transaction costs associated with the Acquisition that are no longer capitalized as part of the acquisition and other costs associated with the issuance of the notes; (ii) the write-off of previous debt issuance costs; (iii) the impact of the change in fair value of inventory on continuing gross profits; (iv) the impact of the decrease in deferred revenue on the continuing gross profits; and (vi) the additional expense associated with accelerated vesting of share-based arrangements.

The Acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting which is based on ASC 805 which requires recognition and measurement of all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their full fair value as of the date control is obtained. The preliminary valuation of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed was used by management to prepare the unaudited condensed combined financial information, however the pro forma information presented will be revised based upon management’s final analysis, with the assistance of valuation advisors and calculations, and the resolution of purchase price adjustments will be completed as additional information becomes available as of the closing date of the Acquisition. Such final adjustments, including changes to amortizable tangible and intangible assets, may be material.

The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for informational purposes only. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to represent what our results of operations or financial condition would have been had the Transactions actually occurred on the dates indicated, nor do they purport to project our results of operations or financial condition for any future period or as of any future date.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

Note 1—Basis of Presentation

Both Activant and Epicor have entered into merger agreements with funds affiliated with Apax. In connection with the Acquisition, Apax entered into a debt commitment letter with a syndicate of commercial banks to provide up to $1,410 million in financing to fund the Acquisition.

The purchase price for the Acquisition is estimated as listed below, subject to a working capital adjustment. The purchase price will be allocated to the fair value of both Activant’s and Epicor’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The pro forma purchase price allocated below has been developed based on preliminary estimates of fair value using the historical financial statements of Activant and Epicor as of March 31, 2011. In addition, the allocation of the purchase price to acquired identifiable assets and assumed liabilities is based on the preliminary valuation of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed used by management to prepare the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. However, the pro forma information will be revised based upon management’s final analyses, with the assistance of valuation advisors, as additional information becomes available as of the closing date of the Acquisition and the resolution of purchase price adjustments. Such final adjustments, including changes to amortizable tangible and intangible assets, may be material. The preliminary purchase price and purchase price allocation are presented as follow:

 

(in thousands)
Preliminary Purchase Price:
Activant		$	969,144
Epicor			802,092
Total purchase price		$	1,771,236
Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation:
Tangible assets acquired:
Current assets		$	361,272
Property and equipment, net			53,356
Other non-current assets			38,830
Total tangible assets acquired			453,458
Identified intangible assets acquired			1,100,000
Current liabilities assumed			(189,968	)
Long-term liabilities			(678,986	)
Total assets acquired in excess of liabilities assumed			684,504
Goodwill			1,086,732
Total purchase price		$	1,771,236

We have determined that goodwill arising from the acquisition will not be deductible for tax purposes.

Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of our business, we are involved in a number of lawsuits and administrative proceedings. While uncertainties are inherent in the final outcome of these matters, our management believes, after consultation with legal counsel, that the disposition of these proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, except as otherwise described below.

On July 12, 2010, Internet Autoparts, Inc. (“IAP”) filed a complaint in the District Court of Travis County, Texas (the “District Court”) against Activant. In the complaint, IAP alleged that we aided and abetted breaches of fiduciary duties by our appointee directors of IAP, and that we tortiously interfered with a contractual relationship of IAP by licensing catalogs and catalog services to General Parts, Inc. (“GPI”), which then allegedly used such catalogs and services to breach a covenant not to compete in IAP’s stockholders agreement. Both Activant and GPI are parties to IAP’s stockholders agreement. IAP sought to recover unspecified damages, including punitive damages, consequential or special damages, interest and any other relief to which it may be entitled. On August 6, 2010, Activant answered IAP’s complaint and filed a motion to dismiss or stay IAP’s lawsuit in favor of arbitration. On August 6, 2010, Activant also filed a demand for arbitration against IAP with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), seeking a declaratory judgment that Activant’s contracts with IAP expressly permit Activant to license catalogs and catalog services to GPI, as well as certain royalties that Activant claims IAP owes to Activant.

On September 16, 2010, the District Court abated IAP’s lawsuit in favor of arbitration. IAP then filed an amended answering statement with the AAA and asserted as counterclaims the same claims that it had originally filed in the District Court. On January 17, 2011, Activant filed a motion for partial summary judgment requesting that the arbitration panel dismiss all of IAP’s claims against Activant. The arbitration panel held a hearing on Activant’s summary judgment motion on February 14, 2011, and on February 22, 2011, the panel granted Activant’s summary judgment motion, thereby dismissing all of IAP’s claims against Activant. Activant’s affirmative claims against IAP remain pending, and Activant expects that there will be a hearing on the merits of its claims against IAP during the summer of 2011.

Although we intend to continue to litigate this matter vigorously, there can be no assurance that we will be successful on the remaining claims in the arbitration or on any appeal by IAP. Even if we are successful, we may incur substantial legal fees and other costs in continuing to litigate the lawsuit and the efforts and attention of our management and technical personnel may be diverted, which could also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. We own approximately 46% of the outstanding common stock of IAP and hold two of five seats on IAP’s board of directors.

Following announcement of the Merger Agreement with affiliates of Apax Partners, four (4) putative stockholder class actions were filed in the Superior Court of California, Orange County, and two (2) such suits were filed in Delaware Chancery Court. The actions filed in California are entitled, Kline v. Epicor Software Corp. et al.,(filed Apr. 6, 2011); Tola v. Epicor Software Corp. et al., (filed Apr. 8, 2011); Watt v. Epicor Software Corp. et al., (filed Apr. 11, 2011), Frazer v. Epicor Software et al., (filed Apr. 15, 2011). The actions pending in Delaware are entitled Field Family Trust Co. v. Epicor Software Corp. et al., (filed Apr. 12, 2011) and Hull v. Klaus et al., (filed Apr. 22, 2011). Amended complaints were filed in the Tola and Field Family Trust actions on April 13, 2011 and April 14, 2011, respectively. Plaintiff Kline dismissed his lawsuit on April 18, 2011. The pending suits allege that the Epicor directors breached their fiduciary duties of loyalty and due care, among others, by seeking to complete the sale of Epicor to Apax and its affiliates through an allegedly unfair process and for an unfair price and by omitting material information from the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 that Epicor filed on April 11, 2011 with the SEC. The complaints also allege that Epicor, Apax, and Sub aided and abetted the directors in the alleged breach of fiduciary duties. The plaintiffs seek certification as a class and relief that includes, among other things, an order enjoining the Tender Offer and Merger, rescission of the Merger, and payment of plaintiff’s attorneys’ fees and costs. We believe the lawsuits are without merit and intend to vigorously contest the actions. There can, however, be no assurance of the outcome of these lawsuits.
