INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT
To the Shareholders of
N-able Technologies International, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of N-able Technologies International, Inc., which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as at December 31, 2012, and the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Managements responsibility for the consolidated financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entitys preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entitys internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
1
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audit is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of N-able Technologies International, Inc. as at December 31, 2012 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2012
(in CDN $)
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
N-able Technologies International, Inc. (the Company) is a global supplier of remote monitoring and management technology and related business support services for IT automation and the delivery of managed services. The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 29, 2000.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its Canadian subsidiaries N-able Technologies Inc. and 2192731 Ontario Inc. and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Actual results could differ from the estimates made by management.
7
Revenue recognition
The Company generates revenue from service providers and end-users from three main sources: perpetual licenses to the rights to its software products which may or may not include integrated products or technologies from third parties (product sales); subscription licenses to the rights to its software products which may or may not include integrated products from third parties (subscription sales); and from maintenance and support agreements associated with those products licensed under a perpetual license agreement (support and services). The Company may also generate revenues from complementary products relicensed by the Company under distribution agreements with third-party vendors or from other activities undertaken by the Company from time to time. Revenue from product sales is recognized as product sales revenue upon receipt of an executed license agreement, or an unconditional order under an existing license agreement, if shipment of the software has occurred, if there are no significant remaining vendor obligations, the fees are fixed or determinable and collection is probable. Some customers elect to finance their purchase of a perpetual license through independent finance companies. The Company considers this election as part of its assessment that collection is probable and payment is due within normal terms. Revenue from subscription sales is recognized as subscription sales revenue on a month-to-month basis if access to the software has been granted and collection of the receivable remains current. Revenue from support and services fees is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance period, which is typically one year. If product support services are included free of charge or discounted in a license agreement, such amounts are unbundled from the total arrangement fee at their fair value based upon the value established by independent sales of such product support to customers. Revenue from complementary products relicensed by the Company is generally recognized monthly upon receipt of an executed agreement, or an unconditional order under an existing agreement, if the activation of the software or service has occurred, if there are no significant remaining obligations of the Company, collection of the receivable is probable and payment is due within normal payment terms. Revenues from other sources are generally recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the products or services are delivered, the fees are fixed and determinable and collection is probable.
For arrangements involving multiple elements, the Company allocates revenue to each component of the arrangement using the residual value method. The Company first allocates the arrangement fee to the undelivered elements based on the total fair value of those elements, as indicated by vendor-specific objective evidence based upon separate sales of renewals of maintenance and support contracts. Fair value of future consulting services is based upon separate sales of these services to other customers. The Company then allocates the residual arrangement fee including any discounts to the delivered elements which are typically software licenses. In some instances, a group of contracts or agreements with the same customer may be so closely related that they are, in effect, part of a single multiple element arrangement and, therefore, the Company would allocate the corresponding revenue among the various components, as described above.
8
Stock-based compensation
The Company has a stock option plan for employees and directors from which options to purchase common shares are issued (the Plan). The Company may also issue options from the Plan to non-employees to procure goods and services. The vesting requirements are typically service-based and the options normally have a contractual life of ten years.
Stock-based compensation costs are accounted for on a fair value basis, as measured at the grant date. The fair value is measured using the options calculated value, a method which substitutes the historical volatility of an appropriate industry proxy for the expected volatility of an entitys share price in an option-pricing model, such as the Black-Scholes valuation model. The resulting stock-based compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis with a corresponding credit to additional paid in capital over the vesting period involved. Any consideration paid by employees upon exercise of the options and the previously recognized compensation cost of the options exercised included in additional paid-in capital are added to capital stock.
Warrants
The Company has issued warrants in conjunction with debt and/or equity financing. The warrants are issued at their estimated fair value at the date of issuance and are recorded as a credit to additional paid-in capital. The Company determines the fair value of warrants granted using the Black-Scholes valuation model.
Research and development costs
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development costs related to technology products developed for sale are expensed as incurred unless they meet the criteria for deferral under U.S. GAAP. To date, the software development of products for sale has not qualified for capitalization.
Government assistance, including refundable Canadian federal and provincial investment tax credits relating to research and development costs, is presented as a separate line item on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income when earned and where receipt of such assistance is reasonably assured.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
9
Financial Instruments
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consist of billed amounts due from customers. The Company continuously assesses the collectability of outstanding customer invoices, and in doing such, the Company maintains an allowance for estimated losses resulting from the non-collection of customer receivables. In estimating this allowance, the Company considers factors such as: historical collection experience, a customers current credit worthiness, customer concentrations, and general economic conditions that may affect a customers ability to pay. Actual customer collections could differ from the Companys estimates. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $269,297 at December 31, 2012.
Sales Taxes
The Company records sales and other taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to government authorities as accounts receivable with a corresponding offset to sales tax payable. The Company removes the sales tax payable balances from the balance sheet as cash is collected from the customer and remitted to the tax authority.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses were approximately $434,346 for the year ending December 31, 2012. Advertising expenses are included in sales and marketing expense in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.
10
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less any related government assistance. Property and equipment are amortized as follows:
Computer equipment |
Straight-line 3 years | |
Furniture and fixtures |
Straight-line 5 years | |
Leasehold improvements |
Straight-line 5 years | |
Intangible assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost and are amortized as follows:
| ||
Software |
Straight-line 1 year | |
Website development |
Straight-line 3 years | |
Acquired intellectual property |
Straight-line 5 years |
Capitalized Software Development Costs
For the costs related to the development of website functionality used to serve our customers, the Company capitalizes costs incurred during the application development stage. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Development costs are amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful life, generally three years. Management evaluates the useful lives of these assets on an annual basis and tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets.
Assets under capital lease
Assets under capital leases are accounted for at cost, which corresponds to the present value of the minimum lease payments.
11
Leases
Rent expense on operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis.
The Company amortizes operating lease tenant allowances, which are reflected in Deferred rent on the accompanying balance sheets, as a reduction to rent expense over the term of the lease. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the non-cash reduction is reflected in Depreciation and amortization.
Foreign currency translation
The Company and its subsidiaries use the Canadian dollar as their functional currency. Monetary foreign denominated balances are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Foreign currency exchange gains or losses resulting from the settlement of foreign currency transactions are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
Income taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, current income taxes are recognized for the estimated income taxes for the current year. Future income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the tax and accounting bases of assets and liabilities as well as for the benefit of losses available to be carried forward to future years for tax purposes that are more likely than not to be realized and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.

Series E redeemable convertible preferred shares
On August 31, 2011, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the Stock Purchase Agreement) with Accel-KKR Structured Capital Partners, L.P. (the Purchaser) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and the Purchaser agreed to purchase 6,470,255 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, par value US$0.001 per share, of the Company (the Series E Shares) for a purchase price of $1.5455 per share (the Original Issue Price) and an aggregate purchase price of $10,000,000.
The following is a summary of certain of the rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Series E Shares:
Liquidation Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (a Liquidity Event), holders of Series E Shares are entitled to be paid, before any payment is made on any other shares of the Company, an amount in cash equal to the greater of (i) $3.091 per share (being twice the Original Issue Price), subject to adjustment (the Liquidation Value) plus any declared and unpaid dividends, or (ii) the amount per share which would have been payable thereon if such Series E Shares had been converted to common shares of the Company immediately prior to such event.
Priority Without the consent of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Series E Shares, the Company may not redeem any other shares of its Preferred Stock or purchase any other shares of the Company. Without the consent of the Majority Series E Investors, the Company may not pay or declare any dividend on any of its shares other than dividends accruing from September 15, 2011 on its Series B Convertible Preferred Shares at the rate of 7% per annum, provided that, such dividends may be paid in cash only at the time of a Liquidity Event or an initial public offering of the common shares of the Company or a change of control sale transaction.
Redemption At any time after the 66th month anniversary of September 15, 2011, the Majority Series E Investors may require redemption of all, but not less than all, Series E Shares at a price per share equal to $1.5455, as adjusted, plus a dividend equal to 10% per annum, compounded annually, plus any other declared and unpaid dividends.
Conversion Optional A holder of Series E Shares may convert all or any of such shares into Common Shares at the rate, subject to adjustment, of one common share of the Company for each Series E Share. In a number of circumstances as set out in the Certificate of Designation for the Series E Shares, the conversion ratio may be adjusted, including in the event that the Company issues or sells its common shares for a price per share less than the Series E Conversion Price then in effect, in which case the conversion ratio will be adjusted on a weighted average basis, for the benefit of the holders of Series E Shares.

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for financial assets and liabilities. The guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. The guidance describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2, defined as inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. All financial instruments have been measured using Level 1 inputs with the exception of the Companys warrants which have been measured using Level 3 inputs. The warrants are issued at their estimated fair value at the date of issuance and are recorded as a credit to additional paid-in capital. The Company determines the fair value of warrants granted using the Black-Scholes valuation model.
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, and amounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates fair value given their short-term maturities.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents in bank accounts, which may exceed federally insured limits, and trade accounts receivable. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts, as necessary, when accounts receivable are considered uncollectible and generally does not require collateral. Management believes that concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to the nature of its customers and their geographic dispersion. Actual customer collections could differ from the Companys estimates. A significant component of the Companys customer base is outside the United States. It is reasonably possible that a disruption caused by political or monetary events in the customers foreign location could adversely impact the Companys results of operations.

Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its floating interest rate financial instruments. The cash equivalents subject the Company to this risk.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company is exposed to this risk mainly in respect of its accounts payable and accrued liabilities and obligation under capital lease. The Company has a cash flow planning process in place to ensure sufficient resources to meet current and projected cash requirements. It is managements opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant liquidity risk arising from the financial instruments.
10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
