SPECIAL NOTE ON FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that are based on our management’s belief and assumptions, and on information currently available to our management.  We generally identify forward looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar words. These statements are only predictions. We have based these forward looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Accordingly, you should not rely upon forward looking statements as predictions of future events. We cannot assure you that the events and circumstances reflected in the forward looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements relate to future events or our future financial performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.  These risks, uncertainties and other factors are more fully described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and under the heading “Risk Factors” Item 1A of Part I on our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.  The forward looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. Except as may be required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.

Unless the context otherwise indicates, references in this report to the terms “IntraLinks”, “we,” “our” and “us” refer to IntraLinks Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

INTRALINKS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In Thousands, Except Share and per Share Data)
(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IntraLinks Holdings, Inc. (“IntraLinks Holdings”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). The consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP” or “U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations.  The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

On August 5, 2010, the SEC declared effective the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-165991), in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of 11,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (‘‘Common Stock’’), at a public offering price of $13.00 per share. The offering closed on August 11, 2010. Upon the closing of the initial public offering, all outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock were converted into 35,101,716 shares of Common Stock. On September 9, 2010, the Company closed the sale of an additional 980,000 shares of Common Stock at the initial public offering price of $13.00 per share pursuant to the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option in connection with the initial public offering. Total net proceeds received from the initial public offering, including the underwriters’ exercise of the over-allotment option, were approximately $144,800 after deducting underwriters’ commissions and discounts of $10,900.

On December 6, 2010, the SEC declared effective the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No.333-170694), in connection with the follow-on public offering of an additional 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a public offering price of $20.00 per share. Total net proceeds received from the follow-on offering, which closed on December 10, 2010, were approximately $38,000 after deducting underwriters’ commissions and discounts of $2,000.

The Company used substantially all of the net proceeds of the initial public offering, including the sale of the underwriters’ over-allotment shares, and the follow-on offering to repay a significant amount of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness.

On April 6, 2011, the SEC declared effective the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No.333-173107), in connection with the Company’s follow-on public offering of 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock at a public offering price of $25.50 per share, with an overallotment option of an additional 187,500 shares.  The follow-on offering closed on April 12, 2011, pursuant to which a total of 1,437,500 shares were issued, inclusive of the exercise of the overallotment option by the underwriters of 187,500 shares. As a result of the offering, the Company received total net proceeds of $34,582 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $1,650 and offering-related expenses of approximately $425. The Company used all of the net proceeds from the follow-on offering to prepay a portion of the amount outstanding under the Company’s First Lien Credit Facility.

The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited  consolidated financial statements and related notes to audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial data contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial condition, results of operations and changes in cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented.  The Company’s historical results are not necessarily indicative of future operating results, and the results for the first nine months ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or for any other period.
 
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, there were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies from those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, except as disclosed below.

Other Revenues

On November 25, 2008, one of the Company’s primary facilities sustained water damage from a fire on a floor above, resulting in an interruption to the Company’s operations. The Company filed a claim under its business interruption insurance policy for lost revenue caused by the down-time experienced subsequent to the loss event. The Company received insurance proceeds totalling $614 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, in response to its business interruption claim.  Business interruption insurance proceeds are classified as “Other revenue” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, the FASB issued revised authoritative guidance covering Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements .  The revised authoritative guidance amends the previous guidance on arrangements with multiple deliverables to:

 
·
Provide updated guidance on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the deliverables in an arrangement should be separated, and how consideration should be allocated;

 
·
Require an entity to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices (“ESP”) of each deliverable if a vendor does not have vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) or third-party evidence of selling price (“TPE”);

 
·
Eliminate the residual allocation method which will be replaced by the relative selling price allocation method for all arrangements; and

 
·
Significantly expand the disclosure requirements.

The revised authoritative guidance is effective for new or materially modified arrangements in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010.  The Company adopted this revised authoritative guidance prospectively for new or materially modified arrangements beginning January 1, 2011 (the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year).

The Company derives revenue principally through fixed commitment contracts, under which it provides customers with access to the IntraLinks Platform, including the IntraLinks cloud-based exchange environment, as well as related customer support and other professional services. The Company offers its services to customers through single-element and multiple-element arrangements, some of which contain offerings for optional services, including document scanning, data archiving and other professional services.

The adoption of this revised authoritative guidance update did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. Additionally, the Company does not currently foresee any changes to its services or pricing practices that will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements in periods after the initial adoption, although this could change.  The Company will continue to evaluate the nature of the services offered to customers under its fixed commitment contracts, as well as its pricing practices, to determine if a change in policy or disclosures is warranted in future periods.

On September 15, 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which gives entities the option of performing a qualitative assessment of goodwill prior to calculating the fair value of a reporting unit in “step 1” of the goodwill impairment test. If entities determine, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the two-step impairment test is required to be performed. The guidance is effective for all entities for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted the authoritative guidance effective October 1, 2011 and will apply the guidance to its annual goodwill impairment assessment during the fourth quarter of 2011.  The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

On May 12, 2011, the FASB issued revised authoritative guidance covering fair value measurements and disclosures.  The amended guidance include provisions for (1) the application of concepts of highest and best use and valuation premises, (2) an option to measure groups of offsetting assets and liabilities on a net basis, (3) incorporation of certain premiums and discounts in fair value measurements, and (4) measurement of the fair value of certain instruments classified in shareholders’ equity.  The revised guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  There will be no impact to the Company’s consolidated financial results as the amendments relate only to changes in financial statement presentation.

On June 16, 2011 the FASB issued revised authoritative guidance covering Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements.  The revised guidance removes the presentation options in the current guidance and requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either a continuous statement of comprehensive income, or two separate but consecutive statements.  The revised authoritative guidance does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income.  The revised guidance is effective for interim and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this revised guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. Investments and Fair Value Measurements

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company invested $27,100 in U.S. Treasuries with maturity dates no greater than 90 days.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, $27,100 of the U.S. Treasuries matured and were transferred to the Company’s money market account.  The Company classified the U.S. Treasuries as cash equivalents with gains and losses recorded to “Interest expense, net” within the Consolidated Statement of Operations.  The gains and losses incurred on these cash equivalents during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 were not material.

During September 2011, the Company utilized $22,496 of funds from its money market account to purchase commercial paper and corporate bonds. Interest earned on debt securities is recorded to “Interest Expense, net” within the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company is classifying these short-term investments as held-to-maturity and has recorded them at amortized cost. The gross unrecognized holding gains and losses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were not material. The following table summarizes these short-term investments as of September 30, 2011:

The fair value framework under the FASB’s guidance requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions used to measure the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3, if applicable, generally would require significant management judgment. The three levels for categorizing assets and liabilities under the fair value measurement requirements are as follows:

 
Level 1:  Fair value measurement of the asset or liability using observable inputs such as quoted  prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
 
 
Level 2:  Fair value measurement of the asset or liability using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the applicable asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical) assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and

Level 3:  Fair value measurement of the asset or liability using unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions regarding the applicable asset or liability.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 there were no other transfers  in or out of the Company’s Level 1 or Level 2 assets or liabilities.

The Company’s effective tax rates for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 are 46.0% and 35.6%, respectively.  They differ from the U.S. Federal statutory tax rate due primarily to non-deductible interest expense, stock-based compensation expenses for incentive stock options and the ESPP, foreign taxes, and state and local taxes, partially offset by tax benefits arising from research and development credits and disqualifying dispositions, by employees, of Common Stock issued under the Company’s qualified stock compensation plans.

The Company is currently undergoing an audit by the Internal Revenue Service of its U.S. Federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2006 through 2009.  At this time, the Company does not expect the results of the income tax audit to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

Unrecognized tax benefits totaled $3,562 and $2,578 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The increase for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 resulted from current tax positions claimed in various jurisdictions in which the Company operates of $384, as well as remeasurement of certain prior year positions in various jurisdictions of $600 based upon new developments and information available. Management does not expect that the balance of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease over the next twelve months.

The Company’s tax reserves for uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties of $156, are included within “Other long term liabilities” on the September 30, 2011 consolidated balance sheet.

  $ 90,843     $ 125,886  

Based on available market information, the estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was approximately $89,529 and $125,964 as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

In connection with the financing of the 2007 merger transaction, pursuant to which IntraLinks, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of IntraLinks Holdings, Inc., which was owned by TA Associates, Inc., Rho Capital Partners, Inc. and certain other stockholders, former and current officers and employees of IntraLinks, Inc. (the “Merger”), the Company entered into three credit agreements, dated June 15, 2007, the First Lien Credit Agreement, the Second Lien Credit Agreement and the Holdings Senior PIK Credit Agreement.

On May 14, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with its lenders to amend the First Lien Credit Agreement and Second Lien Credit Agreement. The purpose of the amended credit agreements was to allow the Company to use net proceeds from its initial public offering for the repayment in full of the loan under the Holdings Senior PIK Credit Agreement (“PIK Loan”) and for the repayment of the Tranche B and Tranche C term loans under the Second Lien Credit Agreement (“Second Lien Credit Facility”) on a pro rata basis. Under the terms of the existing First and Second Lien Credit Agreements, the Company was restricted with regard to repayment preference. The amendment of the First Lien Credit Agreement included updated terms on the interest rate, including a floor of 1.5% (should the Company elect the Eurodollar Rate option) and an increase in the rate margin of 1.75%. At September 30, 2011 the interest rate was 5.75%. The amendment of the Second Lien Credit Agreement included updated terms on the interest rate of the Tranche C term loan, including a floor of 2.0% (should the Company elect the Eurodollar Rate option) and an increase in the rate margin of 0.75%. The updated interest rates under the amended First Lien Credit Agreement and Second Lien Credit Agreement became effective immediately following the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering, on August 11, 2010.

On November 24, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with its lenders to amend the First Lien Credit Facility to allow for the repayment of the remainder of the outstanding balance of the Second Lien Credit Facility using the net proceeds from the December 2010 follow-on offering.

First Lien Credit Facility

The First Lien Credit Facility provides for term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $135,000. Each principal payment is due on the last day of each quarter, which commenced on September 30, 2007 with the balance due in a final installment on June 15, 2014. Additionally, the First Lien Credit Facility includes a requirement for mandatory prepayments based on annual excess free cash flow. Term loans under the First Lien Credit Agreement, as amended, bear interest at the higher of the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) or 1.5%, plus 4.25% per annum. At September 30, 2011 the interest rate on the First Lien Credit Facility was 5.75%. Prior to the amendment, term loans under the First Lien Credit Facility bore interest at the Eurodollar Rate plus 2.75% per annum.  In March 2009, the Company made an election allowable by the credit agreement to change the basis which determines the variable Eurodollar interest rate from three-month LIBOR to one-month LIBOR, with a corresponding change in the timing of interest payments to be due on the last business day of each month.

In April 2011, in connection with the Company’s follow-on public offering, the Company received net proceeds of $34,582 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company used substantially all of the net proceeds from this offering to prepay $34,582 of outstanding indebtedness on the First Lien Credit Facility. The terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement require any voluntary prepayment of the term loans to be applied on a pro rata basis to each scheduled installment of principal. As a result, the quarterly installment payment as of June 30, 2011 decreased from $338 to $246 for the remaining term on the loan.

The First Lien Credit Facility also provides for a $15,000 revolving line of credit, of which $12,912 was unused as of September 30, 2011. At September 30, 2011, $2,088 was reserved for standby letters of credit; $1,288 for operating lease agreements related to the Company’s various office locations and $800 related to the Company’s corporate charge card utilized by executives and certain other employees. The interest rate on the unutilized portion of the revolving line of credit is 0.5% annually.

The current portion of long-term debt reflects the quarterly mandatory principal payments of approximately $246 on the First Lien Credit Facility due in the following year. Current portion of long-term debt aggregated to $982 at September 30, 2011.

Financing Costs

Financing costs resulting from the original debt issuance, as well as the amendments to the First Lien Credit Agreement and Second Lien Credit Agreement, as described above, were deferred when incurred and are being amortized over the remaining term of the loans using the effective interest method. Amortization of deferred financing costs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $214 and $1,155, respectively, compared to $1,111 and $2,026 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.  As a result of the voluntary prepayment of $34,582 on the First Lien Credit Facility (using the proceeds from the April 2011 public offering of Common Stock), an amount of $407 was accelerated, representing the pro rata portion of financing costs, and recognized as “Amortization of deferred financing costs” during the three months ended June 30, 2011

Accounting for Debt Modification

The modification of certain terms of the First and Second Lien Credit Agreements, as described above, required the Company to perform an assessment of future cash flows to determine if the modified terms represented a substantial difference when compared to the original terms. Based on the results of the assessment of future cash flows, the Company concluded that the amendments to the First and Second Lien Credit Agreements did not represent substantially different terms and therefore, modification accounting, rather than debt extinguishment, should be applied. Therefore, the Company calculated a new effective interest rate based on the carrying amounts of the original debt instruments. The effective interest rate for the First Lien Credit Facility as of September 30, 2011 was 6.77%. The effective interest rate includes the pro rata share of the amendment fees, which were deferred and will be amortized over the remaining term of the loan utilizing the effective interest rate method. “Amortization of deferred financing costs” is disclosed separately as a non-operating expense within the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

On July 19, 2007, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement that fixed the interest rate at 5.43% on a beginning notional amount of $170,000.  The notional amount amortizes over a period ending June 30, 2012. At September 30, 2011 the notional amount of $90,000 covered approximately 98% of the Company’s variable rate debt on the First Lien Credit Facility.

On March 25, 2009, in conjunction with the elections made on the First and Second Lien Credit Facilities variable rate bases (from three-month LIBOR to one month LIBOR, and quarterly interest payments to monthly), the Company amended the variable leg of its interest rate swap agreement to mirror the current terms of the First and Second Lien Facilities. The fixed rate payable on the interest rate swap was also revised from 5.43% to 5.25%.

The fair value of the interest rate swap derivative is derived from dealer quotes, which incorporate a credit valuation adjustment at the reporting date. The credit valuation adjustments represent discounts to consider the Company’s own credit risk, since the interest rate swap is in a liability position. Valuations may fluctuate considerably from period-to-period due to volatility in underlying interest rates, which is driven by market conditions and the duration of the swap. The Company recorded $42 and $138 in credit valuation adjustments during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively. The value of the interest rate swap represents the estimated amount the Company would receive (or pay) to terminate the agreement at the respective measurement date.

Prior to March 25, 2009, the Company had not recorded any gain or loss due to ineffectiveness of the hedge, or as the result of a discontinuance of the hedge. Based on the changes made to the swap agreement on March 25, 2009, as of that date the Company no longer qualified to use hedge accounting. Therefore, changes to the fair value of the interest rate swap are reflected in “Other expense (income), net” within the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

At September 30, 2011, there were no shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued or outstanding.

2007 Stock Option and Grant Plan

The maximum number of shares of Common Stock initially reserved and available for issuance under the 2007 Stock Option and Grant Plan was 4,000,000 shares. Under the 2007 Stock Option and Grant Plan, the maximum number of shares increased by one share automatically for every share of restricted Series A Preferred issued under the 2007 Restricted Preferred Stock Plan that failed to vest and was cancelled. On March 8, 2010, an additional 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock were authorized for issuance under the 2007 Stock Option and Grant Plan, increasing the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance to 8,000,000. Effective upon the adoption of the Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company’s board of directors determined not to grant any further awards under the 2007 Stock Option and Grant Plan and the shares of Common Stock that remained available for future awards under the 2007 Stock Option and Grant Plan have been reserved for issuance under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan.

2010 Equity Incentive Plan

The 2010 Equity Incentive Plan was adopted by the Company’s board of directors in March 2010 and approved by its stockholders in July 2010. The 2010 Equity Incentive Plan permits the Company to make grants of stock options (both incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock, cash-based awards, performance shares and dividend equivalent rights to its executives, employees, non-employee directors and consultants. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan is 8,000,000 shares. Generally, shares that are forfeited or canceled from awards under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, the 2007 Stock Option and Grant Plan and the 2007 Restricted Preferred Stock Plan also will be available for future awards.

2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ‘‘2010 ESPP’’) was adopted by the Company’s board of directors and approved by its stockholders in July 2010. The Company’s 2010 ESPP authorizes the issuance of up to a total of 400,000 shares of its Common Stock to participating employees. The Company will make one or more offerings each year to its employees to purchase stock under the 2010 ESPP, usually beginning on the first business day occurring on or after each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 (the ‘‘offering date’’) and will end on the last business day occurring on or before the following March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, respectively (the ‘‘exercise date’’).

INTRALINKS HOLDINGS, INC.

The 2010 ESPP permits a participating employee to make contributions to purchase shares of Common Stock by having withheld from his or her salary a minimum of 10 dollars ($10) per pay period, up to a maximum of 10% of the employees’ salary per pay period. Under the 2010 ESPP, eligible employees of the Company may elect to participate up to 15 business days prior to the offering date. On the exercise date, a participating employee’s contributions will be used to purchase up to 5,000 shares of Common Stock for the participating employee. In addition to the 5,000 share purchase limit, the cost of shares purchased under the plan by a participating employee cannot exceed $25,000 in any plan year. The purchase price for each share will be 85% of the fair market value, as defined in the 2010 ESPP, of the Common Stock on either the offering date or the exercise date, whichever is less.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, 24,753 shares were issued under the 2010 ESPP Plan, at a price of $16.73 per share, which represented 85% of the market price of the Common Stock on January 3, 2011, the offering date, which was lower than the market price of the Common Stock on March 31, 2011, the exercise date.

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, 26,248 shares were issued under the 2010 ESPP Plan, at a price of $14.69 per share, which represented 85% of the market price of the Common Stock on June 30, 2011, the exercise date, which was lower than the market price of the Common Stock on April 1, 2011, the offering date.

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, 45,887 shares were issued under the 2010 ESPP Plan, at a price of $6.38 per share, which represented 85% of the market price of the Common Stock on September 30, 2011, the exercise date, which was lower than the market price of the Common Stock on July 1, 2011, the offering date.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the weighted average grant-date fair value of ESPP rights arising from elections made by ESPP participants was $1.30 and $4.52, respectively. The fair value of ESPP rights that vested during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, was $60 and $439, respectively.

The fair value for the employee stock purchase plan rights (‘‘ESPP rights’’) was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

At September 30, 2011, there were no outstanding ESPP rights, due to the exercise date of the offering period being the same date as the end of the fiscal quarter.  Therefore, the aggregate intrinsic value of ESPP outstanding at September 30, 2011, was $0. Additionally, as of September 30, 2011, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested ESPP rights, as all of the ESPP rights were vested at September 30, 2011. Stock-based compensation expense related to the Company’s 2010 ESPP for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $60 and $439, respectively and $0 and $0, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.

10. Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the dilutive effects of Common Stock equivalents. Common Stock equivalents include stock options, unvested shares of restricted Common Stock and unvested shares of restricted stock units. Diluted net income (loss) per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options, restricted shares of Common Stock and restricted stock units, under the treasury stock method.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue represents the billed but unearned portion of existing contracts for services to be provided. Deferred revenue does not include future potential revenue represented by the unbilled portion of existing contractual commitments of our customers. Accordingly, the deferred revenue balance does not represent the total contract value of outstanding arrangements. However, amounts that have been invoiced are recorded as revenue or deferred revenue, as appropriate, and are included in our accounts receivable balances. Deferred revenue that will be recognized during the subsequent 12-month period is classified as ‘‘Deferred revenue’’ with the remaining portion as non-current deferred revenue in ‘‘Other long-term liabilities’’ on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In addition to the metrics listed in the table above, our management regularly analyzes customer contract data, including aggregate contract values, contract durations and payment terms, which provide indications of future revenue represented by contractual fees not yet billed.  Management also monitors sales and marketing activity, customer renewal rates, the mix of subscription and transaction business and international business growth to evaluate various aspects of our operating and financial performance.  These items are discussed elsewhere in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This Form 10-Q includes information about certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (‘‘GAAP’’ or ‘‘U.S. GAAP’’), including non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP adjusted operating income, non-GAAP adjusted net income , non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and margin and free cash flow. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures is included below.

Management defines its non-GAAP financial measures as follows:

 
§
Non-GAAP gross margin represents the corresponding GAAP measure adjusted to exclude (1) stock-based compensation expense, and (2) amortization of intangible assets.
 
§
Non-GAAP adjusted operating income represents the corresponding GAAP measure adjusted to exclude (1) stock-based compensation expense, (2) amortization of intangible assets, and (3) costs related to public stock offerings.
 
§
Non-GAAP adjusted net income represents the corresponding GAAP measure adjusted to exclude (1) stock-based compensation expense, (2) amortization of intangible assets, (3) costs related to public stock offerings, and (4) costs related to debt repayments.  Non-GAAP adjusted net income is calculated using an estimated long-term effective tax rate.
 
§
Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) adjusted to exclude (1) interest expense, net of interest income, (2) income tax provision (benefit), (3) depreciation and amortization, (4) amortization of intangible assets, (5) stock-based compensation expense, (6) amortization of debt issuance costs, (7) loss on extinguishment of our debt, (8) other expense (income), net and (9) costs related to public stock offerings.
 
§
Free cash flow represents cash flow from operations less capital expenditures.
 
§
Metrics presented as non-GAAP margins represent the respective non-GAAP measures as a percentage of revenue.

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with our results under U.S. GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provide useful information about our period-over-period growth and provide additional information that is useful for evaluating our operating performance and manage the cash needs of our business.  Additionally, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a more meaningful comparison of our operating results against those of other companies in our industry, as well as on a period to-period basis, because these measures exclude items that are not representative of our operating performance, such as amortization of intangible assets, interest expense and fair value adjustments to the interest rate swap. Management believes that including these costs in our results of operations results in a lack of comparability between our operating results and those of our peers in the industry, the majority of which are not highly leveraged and do not have comparable amortization costs related to intangible assets. However, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP adjusted operating income, non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and margin and free cash flow are not measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as alternatives to gross margin, operating income, net income (loss), and cash flows provided by operations as indicators of operating performance.

The table below provides reconciliations between the non-U.S. GAAP financial measures discussed above to the comparable U.S. GAAP measures:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The 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 U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities on an ongoing basis. We evaluate these estimates including those related to the determination of the fair value of stock options and awards issued, fair value of our reporting unit, valuation of intangible assets (and their related useful lives), fair value of financial instruments, income tax provisions, compensation accruals, and reserves for uncollectible accounts receivable and sales credits. Actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, there were no material changes to our significant accounting policies from those contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, other than those disclosed below.

Other Revenues

On November 25, 2008, one of our primary facilities sustained water damage from a fire on a floor above, resulting in an interruption to our operations. We filed a claim under our business interruption insurance policy for lost revenue caused by the down-time experienced subsequent to the loss event. We received insurance proceeds totalling $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, in response to the business interruption claim.  Business interruption insurance proceeds are classified as “Other revenue” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, the FASB issued revised authoritative guidance covering Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.  The revised authoritative guidance amends the previous guidance on arrangements with multiple deliverables to:

 
·
Provide updated guidance on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the deliverables in an arrangement should be separated, and how consideration should be allocated;

 
·
Require an entity to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices (“ESP”) of each deliverable if a vendor does not have vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) or third-party evidence of selling price (“TPE”);

 
·
Eliminate the residual allocation method which will be replaced by the relative selling price allocation method for all arrangements; and

 
·
Significantly expand the disclosure requirements.

The revised authoritative guidance is effective for new or materially modified arrangements in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010.  We adopted this revised authoritative guidance prospectively for new or materially modified arrangements beginning January 1, 2011 (the beginning of our fiscal year).

We derive revenue principally through fixed commitment contracts, under which we provide customers with access to the IntraLinks Platform, including the IntraLinks cloud-based exchange environment, as well as related customer support and other professional services. We offer these services to our customers through single-element and multiple-element arrangements, some of which contain offerings for optional services, including document scanning, data archiving and other professional services.

The adoption of this revised authoritative guidance did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Additionally, we do not currently foresee any changes to our services or pricing practices that will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements in periods after the initial adoption, although this could change.  We will continue to evaluate the nature of the services offered to our customers under fixed commitment contracts, as well as our pricing practices, to determine if a change in policy or disclosures is warranted in future periods.

On September 15, 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which gives entities the option of performing a qualitative assessment of goodwill prior to calculating the fair value of a reporting unit in “step 1” of the goodwill impairment test. If entities determine, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the two-step impairment test is required to be performed. The guidance is effective for all entities for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. We adopted the authoritative guidance effective October 1, 2011 and will apply the guidance to our annual goodwill impairment assessment during the fourth quarter of 2011.  The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 
25

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

On May 12, 2011, the FASB issued revised authoritative guidance covering fair value measurements and disclosures.  The amended guidance include provisions for (1) the application of concepts of highest and best use and valuation premises, (2) an option to measure groups of offsetting assets and liabilities on a net basis, (3) incorporation of certain premiums and discounts in fair value measurements, and (4) measurement of the fair value of certain instruments classified in shareholders’ equity.  The revised guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  There will be no impact to our consolidated financial results as the amendments relate only to changes in financial statement presentation.

On June 16, 2011, the FASB issued revised authoritative guidance covering Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements.  The revised guidance removes the presentation options in the current guidance and requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either a continuous statement of comprehensive income, or two separate but consecutive statements. The revised authoritative guidance does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income.  The revised guidance is effective for interim and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this revised guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
 
Revenue
 
Revenue increased to $54.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, from $47.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010.  For the three months ended September 30, 2011, approximately 26% of the contracts we entered into with our customers were based in foreign currency.  Comparatively, during the three months ended September 30, 2010, approximately 16% of the contracts we entered into with our customers were based in foreign currency.  This increase in foreign transactions is primarily driven by the growth in our Brazilian entity.  Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses are recorded in “Other expense (income), net” on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.  See Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details.

Enterprise – The results for the three months ended September 30, 2011 reflect an increase in Enterprise revenue of $2.4 million or 11.0%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010.   The increase in Enterprise revenue for the three month period, as compared to the prior year period, was driven by an increased customer base and higher exchange utilization.  This activity reflects the wider adoption of our services across customers’ organizations.  We attribute this growth to our increased investment in Enterprise-related product development initiatives, additional sales head count and marketing resources dedicated to this market.  We believe our revenue growth going forward will be driven by the following key trends: expanded geographic and industry focus to establish a wider distribution of our services, ongoing investment in our platform to continue to meet customer needs, and increased focus on providing the types of services that generate repeat business and expand our subscription base. We believe that the resources invested in our platform, as well as our operational infrastructure, will allow us to better serve larger clients on a global basis. Additionally, we believe the Enterprise principal market represents a significant long-term expansion opportunity and we plan to continue to invest in resources dedicated to serving this market.
 
M&A – The results for the three months ended September 30, 2011 reflect an increase in M&A revenue of $3.4 million, or 18.7%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010.   The increase in M&A revenue during the three month period, as compared to the prior year period, reflects a higher volume of business transactions, with total deals won growing to 772 during the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to 673 deals won in the prior period.  Additionally, the increase was driven by the capture of market share from our competition.  Our growth in this principal market will be driven primarily by our ability to continue to increase our market share by winning business from our competition and by penetrating sectors, both geographic and deal size dependent, that are currently not yet taking advantage of services such as ours.  Overall macroeconomic conditions will impact our growth in this principal market.  We plan to continue to invest in our platform as well as our operating, sales and servicing infrastructures to enhance our offering for existing customers and attract new customers.
 
DCM – The results for the three months ended September 30, 2011 reflect an increase in DCM revenue of $0.6 million, or 8.2%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010.  During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the increase in DCM revenue was primarily driven by higher service utilization reflecting customer activity levels, specific to DCM.  We believe results in this principal market will continue to generally be in line with macroeconomic conditions and also reflect the maturity of this market in terms of organizations adopting services such as ours, as well as our current leading market position.  We plan to increase our growth potential in this market primarily through a focus on product development initiatives, which we believe will allow us to expand the level of services provided to our existing customer base, attract customers away from our competition and allow us to enter adjacent and similar markets to expand our customer reach.  

Other Revenue – The results for the three months ended September 30, 2011 included $0.5 million of business interruption insurance proceeds received during the period, as a result of a claim filed for lost revenue from an interruption to our operations, caused by water damage to one of our primary facilities from a fire on a floor above.  There were no comparable amounts received or recorded during the prior year comparable period.

Gross margin
    73.7 %     75.1 %     (1.4 )%        

The results for the three months ended September 30, 2011 reflect an increase in cost of revenue of $2.5 million, or 21.2%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010.  The increase in cost of revenue for the three month period, as compared to the prior year period, was attributed primarily to (i) an increase of $0.9 million in amortization of capitalized software, reflecting an expanded product portfolio, (ii) an increase of $0.6 million in hosting costs to support revenue growth, continued data capacity and our expansion in the United Kingdom, and (iii) an increase of $0.2 million in recruitment, which is in line with growth plans.  Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue was 26.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to 24.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2010, driving gross margin to decrease by 1.4 percentage points for the three months ended September 30, 2011.    

Operating Expenses
 
Total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 increased by approximately $5.2 million, or 16.1%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010.

Sales and Marketing – The results for the three months ended September 30, 2011 reflect an increase in sales and marketing expense of $3.6 million, or 17.9%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010.  The increase in sales and marketing expense for the three month period, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily driven by (i) an increase of  $1.5 million in head count-related expenses primarily salaries, bonus and benefits, (ii) an increase of $0.4 million in sales commission expense, which reflects both the higher level of sales achieved during the period by our internal sales representatives and our partners, as well as the impact of the revised 2011 commission plan for our internal sales representatives as compared to the 2010 plan, and (iii) an increase of $0.7 million in stock-based compensation, primarily driven by the modification of certain awards and accelerated expense recognition as a result of the departure of a key employee.  Sales and marketing expense as a percentage of revenue was 43.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to 42.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2010.
 
General and Administrative – The results for the three months ended September 30, 2011 reflect an increase in general and administrative expense of $3.1 million, or 42.3%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010.  The increase in general and administrative expense for the three month period, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily driven by (i) an increase of $0.9 million in stock-based compensation costs, driven by an increase in equity-based awards issued during the current year, as compared to prior year, (ii) an increase of $1.1 million in professional services to support the needs of our business as a public company, including international expansion, improvements in business systems and audit support, (iii) an increase of $0.5 million in system support and maintenance costs driven by system improvements and additional licenses to accommodate increased headcount, and (iv) an increase of $0.4 million of indirect taxes attributable to over Brazilian subsidiary.  General and administrative expense as a percentage of revenue was 18.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to 15.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2010.

Amortization of Debt Issuance Costs
 
Amortization of debt issuance costs for the three months ended September 30, 2011 decreased by $0.9 million, or 80.7%, as compared to the prior year three month period, primarily due to acceleration of $0.3 million representing the pro rata share of the original debt issuance costs incurred during the 2007 merger transaction, as it relates to the portion of debt that was repaid during the three months ended September 30, 2010.  In addition to the acceleration of the original debt issuance costs, we also incurred $0.3 million in issuance costs during the three months ended September 30, 2010 related to the amendment of the First and Second Lien Credit Facilities, which allowed us to change the priority of repayment and use the net proceeds from our initial public offering to first reduce outstanding indebtedness under the PIK Loan, with a portion of the remaining proceeds applied to Tranche B and C of the Second Lien Credit Facility, on a pro rata basis.  No comparable acceleration or additional costs were incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2011.  Amortization of debt issuance costs represented 0.4% and 2.3% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

 
During the three months ended September 30, 2010, we recorded $5.0 million as a loss on extinguishment of debt, which included a 4% prepayment penalty on the PIK Loan totaling $4.1 million, $0.7 million in accelerated recognition of original issuance costs and $0.2 million in issuance costs related to the amendment of the First and Second Lien Credit Facilities, which allowed us to change the priority of repayment and use the net proceeds from our initial public offering to reduce outstanding indebtedness under the PIK Loan.  No comparable costs were incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

 
Other Expense (Income), Net
 
The major components of “Other expense (income), net” are fair value adjustments to our interest rate swap and foreign currency transaction gains and losses.  Other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $0.5 million, primarily driven by a decrease of $1.1 million in the fair value of our interest rate swap liability, offset by $1.6 million in foreign currency transaction losses.  Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $0.9 million, primarily driven by the decrease of $0.6 million in the fair value of our interest rate swap liability and $0.1 million in foreign currency transaction gains.

 
Income Tax Benefit

Our effective tax rate for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 of 250.8% differs from the U.S Federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the size of our pre-tax book loss of $0.3 million relative to stock-based compensation expenses for incentive stock options and the ESPP, foreign taxes, and state and local taxes, partially offset by tax benefits arising from research and development credits and disqualifying dispositions, by employees, of Common Stock issued under our qualified stock compensation plans.

 
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, our effective tax rate of 46.0% differs from the U.S Federal statutory tax rate primarily due to non-deductible interest expense, stock-based compensation expenses for incentive stock options and the ESPP, foreign taxes, and state and local taxes, partially offset by tax benefits arising from research and development credits, and disqualifying dispositions, by employees, of Common Stock issued under our qualified stock compensation plans.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
 
Revenue
 
Revenue increased to $160.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $132.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, approximately 24% of the contracts we entered into with our customers were based in foreign currency.  Comparatively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, approximately 15% of the contracts we entered into with our customers were based in foreign currency.  This increase in foreign transactions is driven by the growth in our Brazilian entity.  Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses are recorded in “Other expense (income), net” on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.  See Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details.

Enterprise – The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 reflect an increase in Enterprise revenue of $11.3 million, or 18.9%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  The increase in Enterprise revenue for the nine month period, as compared to the prior year period, was driven by an increased customer base, larger contract values for new customers, as well as higher exchange utilization.  This activity reflects the wider adoption of our services across customers’ organizations.  We attribute this growth to our increased investment in Enterprise-related product development initiatives, additional sales head count and marketing resources dedicated to this market.  We believe our revenue growth going forward will be driven by the following key trends: expanded geographic and industry focus to establish a wider distribution of our services, ongoing investment in our platform to continue to meet customer needs, and increased focus on providing the types of services that generate repeat business and expand our subscription base. We believe that the resources invested in our platform, as well as our operational infrastructure, will allow us to better serve larger clients on a global basis. Additionally, we believe the Enterprise principal market represents a significant long-term expansion opportunity and we plan to continue to invest in resources dedicated to serving this market.
 
M&A – The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 reflect an increase in M&A revenue of $14.3 million, or 29.5%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  The increase in M&A revenue for the nine month period, as compared to the prior year period, reflects a higher volume of business transactions with total deals growing to 2,164 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to 1,840 deals won in the prior period.  Additionally, the increase was driven by the capture of market share from our competition.  Our growth in this principal market will be driven primarily by our ability to continue to increase our market share by winning business from our competition and by penetrating sectors, both geographic and deal size dependent, that are currently not yet taking advantage of services such as ours.  Overall macroeconomic conditions will impact our growth in this principal market also.  We plan to continue to invest in our platform as well as our operating, sales and servicing infrastructures to enhance our offering for existing customers and attract new customers.
 
DCM – The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 reflect an increase in DCM revenue of $2.2 million, or 9.2%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the increase in DCM revenue was primarily driven by the improved overall market conditions, specific to DCM, and as a result we experienced greater service utilization and higher subscription overages.  We believe results in this principal market will continue to generally be in line with macroeconomic conditions and also reflect the maturity of this market in terms of organizations adopting services such as ours, as well as our current leading market position.  We plan to increase our growth potential in this market primarily through a focus on product development initiatives, which we believe will allow us to expand the level of services provided to our existing customer base, attract customers away from our competition and allow us to enter adjacent and similar markets to expand our customer reach.  

 
Other Revenue - The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, included $0.6 million of business interruption insurance proceeds received during the period, as a result of a claim filed for lost revenue from an interruption to our operations, caused by water damage to one of our primary facilities from a fire on a floor above.  There were no comparable amounts received or recorded during the prior year comparable period.

Other Expense (Income), Net
 
The major components of other expense (income), net are fair value adjustments to our interest rate swap and foreign currency transaction gains and losses.  Other income, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $2.5 million, primarily driven by a decrease of $3.1 million in the fair value of our interest rate swap liability, partially offset by $0.6 million in foreign currency transaction losses.  Other income, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $1.2 million, primarily driven by the decrease of $1.4 million in the fair value of our interest rate swap liability, partially offset by $0.3 million in foreign currency transaction losses.

Income Tax Benefit

Our effective tax rate for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 of 573.2% differs from the U.S Federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the size of our pre-tax book loss of $0.5 million relative to the stock-based compensation expenses for incentive stock options and the ESPP foreign taxes, and state and local taxes, partially offset by tax benefits arising from research and development credits and, disqualifying dispositions by employees of Common Stock issued under our qualified stock compensation plans.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, our effective tax rate of 35.6% differs from the U.S Federal statutory tax rate primarily due to non-deductible interest expense, stock-based compensation expenses for incentive stock options and the ESPP, foreign taxes, and state and local taxes, partially offset by tax benefits arising from research and development credits, and disqualifying dispositions by employees of Common Stock issued under our qualified stock compensation plans.

We anticipate capital expenditures and investments in our software development may increase in future periods, in line with our growth strategy.  Capital expenditures are currently restricted to $25.0 million on an annual basis, under the covenants of our First Lien Credit Facility.

Financing Activities
 
Cash flows provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $1.5 million, primarily consisting of $2.5 million in proceeds from the issuance of common stock, pursuant to exercises of stock options and our ESPP, as well as $35.0 million received in connection with our successful follow-on public stock offering which closed in April 2011.  The cash received was partially offset by $35.4 million of debt repayments made during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, including our mandatory quarterly debt repayments and the voluntary prepayment on our First Lien Credit Facility using the net proceeds from our April 2011 follow-on public stock offering.  Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 we incurred $0.5 million of costs associated with our public offerings.  

Cash flows provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $1.4 million, primarily consisting of $144.8 million in net proceeds from our initial public offering, including the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option, partially offset by $137.8 million in payments made on our outstanding long-term debt and a $4.1 million prepayment penalty on the PIK Loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
 
The First Lien Credit Facility provided for term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $135.0 million.  Prior to June 30, 2011 each quarterly installment payment was equal to $0.3 million.  The terms of our First Lien Credit Agreement require any voluntary prepayment of our term loans to be applied on a pro rata basis to each scheduled installment of principal.  As of June 30, 2011, the quarterly installment payments decreased to $0.2 million, as result of the voluntary prepayment made in April 2011.  Each principal payment is due on the last day of each quarter, which commenced on September 30, 2007 and continues for 27 installments, with the balance due in a final installment on June 15, 2014.  Additionally, the First Lien Credit Facility includes a requirement for mandatory prepayments of 50% of our excess free cash flow as measured on an annual basis. Excess free cash flow is generally defined as our adjusted EBITDA less debt service costs, capital expenditures, current income taxes paid and any cash security deposits made in respect of leases for office space, as adjusted for changes in our working capital. As a result of our fiscal 2009 excess free cash flow, we made a mandatory prepayment on April 1, 2010 of approximately $1.2 million. In line with the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement, an excess cash flow mandatory payment was not required for fiscal year 2010, due to our Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) being less than 3.25 at December 31, 2010.

The term loans under the First Lien Credit Agreement, as amended, bear interest at the higher of the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) or 1.50% plus 4.25% per annum, which was 5.75% at September 30, 2011. Interest payments on the First Lien Credit Facility are due on the last business day of each month. The First Lien Credit Facility also provides for a $15.0 million revolving line of credit, of which $12.9 million was unused as of September 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, $1.3 million of the revolving line of credit was reserved for standby letters of credit for several of our operating lease agreements related to our various office locations. Additionally, $0.8 million of the revolving line of credit was reserved for a standby letter of credit related to our corporate charge card utilized by executives and certain other employees.
 
The First Lien Credit Facility is secured by security interests and liens against all of our assets, including a pledge of 100% of the equity interests in our domestic subsidiaries and an obligation to pledge 65% of the equity interests in our direct foreign subsidiaries.
 
All obligations under the First Lien Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by our direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. These guarantees are secured by substantially all the present and future property of the guarantors.

Additionally, in July 2007, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to fix the interest rate on our variable rate debt at 5.43% on a beginning notional amount of $170.0 million. The notional amount amortizes over a period ending June 30, 2012, and was $90.0 million at September 30, 2011. In March 2009, in conjunction with the elections made on the First and Second Lien Credit Facilities variable rate bases (from three-month LIBOR to one-month LIBOR, and quarterly interest payments to monthly), we amended the interest rate swap agreement to mirror the terms of the First and Second Lien Credit Facilities. The fixed rate payable on the interest rate swap was also revised from 5.43% to 5.25%, which was the rate in effect at September 30, 2011 and 2010.  The variable rate receivable is based on one-month LIBOR.

Prior to the repayment of our Second Lien Credit Facility during the year ended December 31, 2010, the Second Lien Credit Facility provided for two tranches of term loans. Tranche B in the amount of $30.0 million and Tranche C in the amount of $35.0 million.  Tranche B bore interest at the rate of 11.0% per annum and Tranche C bore interest at the Eurodollar Rate plus 5.75%, which was 6.1% at September 30, 2010.

Prior to the repayment of our PIK Loan during the year ended December 31, 2010, the PIK Loan provided for loans in the amount of $75.0 million and bore interest at a rate of 13.0% at September 30, 2010.  During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we elected to pay the quarterly interest of $3.2 million in cash.

 
36

 

Cash paid for interest on the loans described above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, was $8.2 million and $15.0 million, respectively.
 
Due to the continued positive operating performance of our business and the absence of any acquisition activity, we have not needed to borrow additional amounts under our credit facilities or obtain additional financing to fund operations and capital expenditures.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We currently use the net cash generated from operations to fund our working capital needs and our capital expenditure requirements. Our available financing arrangements include a $15.0 million revolving line of credit, of which $12.9 million is available to us as of September 30, 2011.  At September 30, 2011, we had approximately $47.7 million in cash and cash equivalents, $20.5 million in short-term investments, and $41.8 million in accounts receivable, net of allowances for doubtful accounts and credit reserves. We believe that we have sufficient cash resources to continue operations for at least the next 12 to 24 months.

In connection with our initial public stock offering in August 2010 and the exercise by the underwriters of the related over-allotment option shortly thereafter, we received total net proceeds of approximately $144.8 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. In December 2010, in connection with our follow-on public stock offering, we received net proceeds of $38.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. In April 2011, in connection with our follow-on public stock offering we received net proceeds of $34.6 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions.  We used substantially all of the net proceeds from our public stock offerings to repay indebtedness. We used the net proceeds from our initial public stock offering to first reduce our outstanding indebtedness under the PIK Loan, with a portion of the remaining proceeds, as well as the proceeds from the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option, to repay Tranche B and Tranche C of the Second Lien Credit Facility, on a pro rata basis. The net proceeds from the December follow-on public stock offering were used to pay the remaining outstanding balance of the Second Lien Credit Facility. The net proceeds from the April follow-on public stock offering were used to prepay a portion of the amount outstanding under our First Lien Credit Facility.  This overall reduction of our outstanding indebtedness has significantly reduced the total interest expense we expect to pay in future periods.

The credit markets have experienced disruption that reached unprecedented levels during late 2008 and 2009 and more recently in 2011. The disruption in the financial markets has affected some of the financial institutions with which we do business. A continued, sustained decline in the stability of these financial institutions could adversely affect our access to financing, as well as our revenue growth (due to our customer base in the DCM and M&A principal markets). Additionally, if the national or global economy or credit market conditions in general were to deteriorate further, it is possible that such changes could adversely affect our credit ratings, among other things, including our ability to obtain external financing or to refinance our existing indebtedness.

There has been no change in our credit rating, since Standard & Poor’s lifted our corporate credit rating from B+ to BB- with a “stable” outlook on June 30, 2011.  Additionally, there has been no change in our issue-level rating on our First Lien Credit Facility since the rating was raised to BB+ from BB on June 30, 2011, in conjunction with the corporate credit rating change.

Our corporate credit ratings and outlooks as of September 30, 2011, are summarized in the table below.

Rating Agency
 
Rating
 
Outlook
Moody's
 
B1

Credit rating agencies review their ratings periodically, and therefore the credit rating assigned to us by each agency may be subject to revision at any time.  Factors that can affect our credit ratings include changes in our operating performance, economic environment, our financial position, conditions in any of our principal markets, and changes in our business strategy.  If weak financial market conditions or competitive dynamics cause any of these factors to deteriorate we could see a reduction in our corporate credit rating.

Changes in our credit rating could adversely impact the interest rates on our First Lien Credit Facility.  Provided that at any time our corporate credit rating is B1 (stable) from Moody’s and at least B+ (stable) from Standard & Poor’s our Eurodollar rate margin will be 4.25%.  If our credit rating were to decline our Eurodollar rate margin would increase to 4.50%.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments
 
During the three months ended June 30, 2011, we used $34.6 million in net proceeds from our April 2011 follow-on public stock offering to repay indebtedness. The following table sets forth, as of June 30, 2011, certain significant cash obligations that will affect our future liquidity. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, there were no significant changes to our cash obligations presented below.

Long-Term Debt and Interest on Long-Term Debt
 
Cash obligations on long-term debt, presented in the table above, represent scheduled principal payments due in each respective period.

Interest on long-term debt consists of expected interest payments on the First Lien Credit Facility through its maturity date, based on the assumptions regarding the amount of debt outstanding and assumed interest rates. The assumed interest rate on the First Lien Credit Facility was 5.75%, representing a 1.5% LIBOR floor plus 4.25% spread.  In addition, this amount reflects the impact of the interest rate swap on the variable rate debt, for which we expect to pay a fixed rate of 5.25% through June 2012.

Operating Leases and Third-party Hosting Commitments

Our principal commitments consist of obligations under operating leases for office space in New York, Boston, London, Chicago, São Paolo, Hong Kong, Frankfurt, Sydney, Melbourne, San Francisco, and Singapore, expiring between October 2011 and January 2016.  Rent is amortized on a straight-line basis over the applicable lease terms. Our office space lease obligations may increase as a result of customary contractual escalation clauses or if we enter into new agreements to lease additional office space. In December 2009 we executed a new 10 year lease directly with the landlord for our corporate headquarters in New York, NY. The new lease began in August 2011 and provides for approximately 12 months of initial free rent and an allowance from the landlord to be used for office improvements and certain other payments of approximately $1.9 million. The future minimum lease payments of the new lease are included in the above table.

Our commitments to our third-party hosting provider expire in December 2013. Our hosting obligations are largely impacted by service expansion requirements in line with the growth of our business.

Uncertain Tax Positions

Tax reserves for uncertain tax positions of $3.8 million (including interest and penalties of $0.2 million) are included within “Other long term liabilities” on the September 30, 2011 consolidated balance sheet. 

Unrecognized tax benefits totaled $3.6 million and $2.6 million at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The increase during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 consists of $0.4 million related to current tax positions claimed in various jurisdictions in which we operate, and an increase of $0.6 million as a result related to the remeasurement of certain prior year positions in various jurisdictions, based upon new developments and information available to us.  We do not expect that the balance of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease over the next twelve months.   We are not able to reasonably estimate when we would make any cash payments required to settle these liabilities, but we do not believe that the ultimate settlement of our obligations will materially affect our liquidity.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently have, and did not have during the periods presented, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined under SEC rules, such as relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, which are often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, established for the purpose of facilitating financing transactions that are not required to be reflected on our consolidated balance sheets.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The following discussion should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes to consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as those discussed within our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes to audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.
 
Interest Rate Sensitivity
 
The primary objectives of our investment activities are to preserve principal, provide liquidity and maximize income without significantly increasing risk. Some of the securities we invest in are subject to market risk. This means that a change in prevailing interest rates may cause value of the investment to fluctuate. To minimize this risk, we maintain our portfolio of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments in a variety of securities, including money market funds, U.S. treasuries, and corporate debt securities. A 10% decrease in interest rates in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, or the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, would not have had a material impact (on a total dollar basis) on our interest income during those periods, respectively, due to the immateriality of the interest income generated by our investments during those periods.
 
We maintain an interest rate swap agreement that, as of September 30, 2011, fixed the interest rate on 98% of our variable rate debt. The fair value of the interest rate swap derivative is measured based on dealer quotes and a credit valuation adjustment to reflect our credit risk, since the swap is in a liability position. The fair value measurement of the swap may fluctuate considerably from period-to-period due to volatility in underlying interest rates, which is driven by market conditions and the duration of the swap. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, a 10% increase or decrease in interest rates would have resulted in an increase or decrease of $0.1 million, to “Other expense (income), net,” within our consolidated statement of operations, respectively. 
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, approximately 40% of our revenues were generated from sales across 61 countries outside of the United States.  Our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly between the U.S. Dollar, Pound Sterling and Euro.  During the three and nine months ended September 30 2011, the currency markets experienced significant fluctuations which caused us to incur foreign currency transaction losses of $1.7 million and $0.5 million, in those respective periods. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, a 10% increase in foreign exchange rates would have resulted in an additional $0.4 million in foreign currency transaction losses to be recorded to “Other expense (income), net,” within our consolidated statement of operations.  Comparatively, a 10% decrease in foreign exchange rates would have resulted in a $1.7 million in foreign currency transaction gain to be recorded to “Other expense (income), net,” within our consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Inflation Risk
 
Our monetary assets, consisting primarily of cash, cash equivalents and investments, are not affected significantly by inflation because they are short-term. We believe the impact of inflation on replacement costs of equipment, furniture and leasehold improvements will not materially affect our operations. The rate of inflation, however, affects our cost of revenue and expenses, such as those for employee compensation, which may not be readily recoverable in the price of the services offered by us.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the  Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the ‘‘Exchange Act’’)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective to provide reasonable  assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1:  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are parties to various legal matters and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. We do not currently expect that the final resolution of these ordinary course matters will have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 
We operate in a rapidly changing environment that involves a number of risks that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, some of which are beyond our control. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. There are no material changes to the risk factors described in our Annual Report.

ITEM 2: UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

None.

ITEM 3: DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

ITEM 4: (REMOVED AND RESERVED)

ITEM 5:  OTHER INFORMATION

Our policy governing transactions in our securities by directors, officers and employees permits our officers, directors and certain other persons to enter into trading plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Generally, under these trading plans, the individual relinquishes control over the transactions once the trading plan is put into place. Accordingly, sales under these plans may occur at any time, including possibly before, simultaneously with, or immediately after significant events involving our company. As of the date of this filing, J. Andrew Damico, our Chief Executive Officer, and Patrick Wack, one of our directors, have trading plans in effect covering periods after the date of this Form 10-Q in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and our policy governing transactions in our securities.

We anticipate that, as permitted by Rule 10b5-1 and our policy governing transactions in our securities, some or all of our other officers, directors and employees may establish trading plans in the future. We intend to disclose the names of executive officers and directors who establish a trading plan in compliance with Rule 10b5-1 and the requirements of our policy governing transactions in our securities in our future quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, we undertake no obligation to update or revise the information provided herein, including for revision or termination of an established trading plan, other than in such quarterly and annual reports.
