Nature of Business
 
We provide secure information exchange capabilities for enterprises and consumers through the development and distribution of software, delivery of managed and hosted solutions, and provisioning of associated services. Our solution portfolio facilitates transmission of critical information such as financial data, medical records, customer files, vendor files, personnel files, transaction activity, and other similar documents between diverse and geographically separated network infrastructures while supporting a range of information protection approaches to meet privacy and other security requirements. In addition to enabling secure, flexible transmission of critical information using servers, desktop and notebook computers, and a wide range of network-enabled mobile devices, our products also provide customers with the ability to monitor and audit file transfer activities.  Our primary product is Enhanced File Transfer, or EFT. We have other products that complement our secure information exchange offerings portfolio.
 
Throughout these notes unless otherwise noted, our references to the 2015 quarter and the 2014 quarter refer to the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  Our references to the 2015 six months and the 2014 six months refer to the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
 
2.
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, “Interim Financial Statements”, as prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all accounting entries necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations have been made. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, which we refer to as the 2014 Form 10-K, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations also included in our 2014 Form 10-K and in this report.
 
We follow accounting standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. This board sets GAAP that we follow in preparing financial statements that report our financial position, results of operations, and sources and uses of cash. We also follow the reporting regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC.
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of our financial statements. It is possible the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions and could have a material effect on the reported amounts of our financial position and results of operations.
 
3.
Significant Accounting Policies
 
There have been no changes in our significant accounting policies during the 2015 six months compared to the 2014 six months or from those described in our 2014 Form 10-K. Listed below is a condensed version of our significant accounting policies.

Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of GlobalSCAPE, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary (collectively referred to as the “Company” or “we”) are prepared in conformity with GAAP.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Revenue Recognition

We develop, market and sell software products. We recognize revenue from a sale transaction when the following conditions are met:

·  
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists.
·  
Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered.
·  
The amount is fixed or determinable.
·  
Collection is reasonably assured.

For a sale transaction not meeting any one of these four criteria, we defer recognition of revenue related to that transaction until all the criteria are met.

We earn the majority of our software license revenue from software products sold under perpetual software license agreements. At the time our customers purchase these products, they typically also purchase a product maintenance and support, or M&S, agreement. These transactions are multiple element software sales for which we assess the presence of vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of the fair value of the undelivered elements to determine the portion of these sales to recognize as revenue upon delivery of the software product and the portion of these sales to record as deferred revenue at the time the product is delivered. We amortize the deferred revenue component to revenue in future periods as we deliver the related future services to the customer. For transactions, if any, for which we cannot establish VSOE of fair value of the undelivered elements, we initially record the entire transaction as deferred revenue and amortize that amount to revenue in future periods as we deliver the related future services to the customer.
 
Our deferred revenue consists primarily of revenue to be earned in the future as we deliver services under M&S agreements. Certain of our customers will accept, and sometimes pay, our invoices for M&S services prior to the commencement of the M&S period. In such cases, we record accounts receivable and deferred revenue in the same amount at the time we submit an invoice to the customer and commence recognition of the deferred revenue as revenue only after the M&S period begins.
 
For our products licensed and delivered under a software-as-a-service transaction on a monthly or other periodic subscription basis, we recognize subscription revenue, including initial setup fees, on a monthly basis over the contractual term of the customer contract as we deliver our products and services. Amounts invoiced or paid prior to this revenue recognition are presented as deferred revenue until earned.
 
We provide professional services to our customers consisting primarily of software installation support, operations support and training. We recognize revenue from these services as they are completed and accepted by our customers.
 
We collect sales tax on some of our sales. We do not include sales tax collected in our revenue. We record it as a liability payable to taxing authorities.

Revenue Classifications

Amounts previously reported as other revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the 2014 quarter and six months have been reclassified to software licenses revenue to conform to the presentation for the 2015 quarter and six months.

Goodwill

Goodwill is not amortized. On at least an annual basis, we test goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level. We operate as a single reporting unit.
 
 
7


When testing goodwill, we first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of our reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. In performing this qualitative assessment, we assess events and circumstances relevant to us including, but not limited to:

·  
Macroeconomic conditions.
·  
Industry and market considerations.
·  
Cost factors and trends for labor and other expenses of operating our business.
·  
Our overall financial performance and outlook for the future.
·  
Trends in the quoted market value and trading of our common stock.

In considering these and other factors, we consider the extent to which any adverse events and circumstances identified could affect the comparison of our reporting unit’s fair value with its carrying amount. We place more weight on events and circumstances that most affect our reporting unit’s fair value or the carrying amount of our net assets. We consider positive and mitigating events and circumstances that may affect our determination of whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. We evaluate, on the basis of the weight of the evidence, the significance of all identified events and circumstances in the context of determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.

If, after assessing the totality of these qualitative events and circumstances, we determine it is not more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, we conclude there is no impairment of goodwill and perform no further testing in accordance with GAAP. If we conclude otherwise, we proceed with performing the first step, and if necessary, the second step, of the two-step goodwill impairment test prescribed by GAAP.
 
As of December 31, 2014, after assessing the totality of the relevant events and circumstances, we determined it was not more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting unit was less than its carrying amount. Accordingly, we concluded there was no impairment of goodwill as of that date. There have been no material events or changes in circumstances since that time indicating that the carrying amount of goodwill may exceed its fair market value and that interim testing needed to be performed.
 
Capitalized Software Development Costs
 
When we complete research and development for a software product and have completed a detail program design or a working model of that software product, we capitalize production costs incurred for that software product from that point forward until it is ready for general release to the public. Thereafter, we amortize capitalized software production costs to expense using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of that product, which is generally three years.
 
Research and Development
 
We expense research and development costs as incurred.
 
Share-Based Compensation
 
We measure the cost of share-based payment transactions at the grant date based on the calculated fair value of the award. We recognize this cost as an expense ratably over the recipient’s requisite service period during which that award vests or becomes unrestricted.
 
For stock option awards, we estimate their fair value at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model considering the following factors:
 
·  
We estimate expected volatility based on historical volatility of our common stock.
·  
We use primarily the simplified method to derive an expected term which represents an estimate of the time options are expected to remain outstanding. We use this method because our options are plain-vanilla options, and we believe our historical option exercise experience is not adequately indicative of our future expectations.
·  
We base the risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option on the U.S. treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
·  
We estimate a dividend yield based on our historical and expected future dividend payments.
 
 
8

 
For restricted stock awards, we use the quoted price of our common stock on the grant date as the fair value of the award.
 
Income Taxes
 
We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method.  We record deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the difference between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount for financial reporting purposes as measured by the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are carried on the balance sheet with the presumption that they will be realizable in future periods in which we generate taxable income.
 
We assess the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be realized from future taxable income. Based on this assessment, we provide any necessary valuation allowance on our balance sheet with a corresponding increase in the tax provision on our statement of operations.   Any valuation allowances we establish are determined based upon a number of assumptions, judgments, and estimates, including forecasted earnings, future taxable income, and the relative proportions of revenue and income before taxes in the various domestic jurisdictions in which we operate.
 
We account for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, we evaluate the tax position to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination. If the tax position is deemed “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained, we assess the tax position to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The amount of the benefit we recognize is the largest amount that we believe has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Unrecognized tax benefits represent tax positions for which reserves have been established.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements. It is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company’s financial position and results of operation.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 entitled Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. We are subject to this guidance effective with financial statements we issue for the year ending December 31, 2017, and the quarterly periods during that year. We do not expect the amounts or timing of revenue we report in those future periods under this guidance to be materially affected relative to current guidance.

Restricted Stock Awards
 
In May 2015, we adopted the 2015 Non-Employee Directors Long Term Incentive Plan (“2015 Directors Plan”). This plan provides for the issuance of either stock options or restricted stock awards for up to 500,000 shares of our common stock. Provisions and characteristics of this plan include the following:

·  
The exercise price, term and other conditions applicable to each stock option or stock award granted are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
·  
Restricted stock awards are initially issued with a legend restricting transferability of the shares until the recipient satisfies the vesting provision of the award, which is generally continuing service for one year subsequent to the date of the award.

We claimed the research and experimentation tax credit, or R&D tax credit, on certain of our tax returns and have included the effect of those credits in our provisions for income taxes. Certain of those returns, and in particular the R&D tax credit claimed on those returns, were under routine examination by the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS. The IRS has completed its examination of such returns through 2010 with their findings resulting in them allowing us to take a larger R&D tax credit than we had previously estimated the IRS might allow. As a result, we reduced our valuation allowance related to the uncertainty of this item by $51,000 during the 2015 quarter. Our tax returns for 2011 and later remain subject to examination by the IRS. We believe it more-likely-than-not that examination of those tax returns could result in $42,000 of R&D tax credits we claimed for those years not being allowed by the IRS.  Accordingly, we have retained a valuation allowance of $42,000 due to the uncertainty of this item.

As of June 30, 2015, we had federal income tax net operating loss carry forwards of $531,000 available to offset future federal taxable income, if any. These carry forwards expire in 2030 and 2031.
 
 
12


Legislation has not yet been passed to extend the R&D tax credit into 2015. Accordingly, we have not recorded a benefit for that credit during the 2015 quarter or 2015 six months. The R&D tax credit was in effect for all of 2014 and, accordingly, the effects of the R&D tax credit are included for the 2014 quarter and 2014 six months.

Commitments and Contingencies
 
We have agreements with key personnel that provide for severance payments to them in the event of a change in control of the Company, as defined in those agreements, and their employment is terminated in connection with that change in control. In such event, our aggregate severance payments to those employees would be $951,000.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and any documents incorporated by reference herein contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  “Forward-looking statements” are those statements that are not of historical fact but describe management’s beliefs and expectations.  We have identified many of the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “may,” “expect,” “potentially” and “intend.”  Although we believe these expectations are reasonable, our operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including those described in the “Risk Factors” section of our 2014 Form 10-K and other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Therefore, GlobalSCAPE’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in this Quarterly Report.
 
In the following discussion, our references to the 2015 quarter and the 2014 quarter refer to the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  Our references to the 2015 six months and the 2014 six months refer to the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
 
Overview
 
We provide secure information exchange capabilities for enterprises and consumers through the development and distribution of software, delivery of managed and hosted solutions, and provisioning of associated services. We have thousands of enterprise customers and more than one million individual consumers in over 150 countries.
 
We believe we are well-positioned to provide secure transfer, sharing, and replication of files that need to be transmitted inside the user’s firewall to distributed locations, or outside the user’s firewall to business and trading partners, including network-enabled mobile devices. Our solution portfolio securely addresses data and information management, movement, and accessibility across a broad range of environments encompassing data and information in motion (for example, with traditional Managed File Transfer, or MFT, solutions delivered as on-premises software or as a cloud service) and at rest (for example, through securely deleting or purging files or securely accessing stored data from mobile tablet or smartphone devices).
 
Our solution portfolio facilitates transmission of critical information such as financial data, medical records, customer files, vendor files, personnel files, transaction activity, and other similar documents between diverse and geographically separated network infrastructures while supporting a range of information protection approaches to meet privacy and other security requirements. In addition to enabling secure, flexible transmission of critical information using servers, desktop and notebook computers, and a wide range of network-enabled mobile devices, our products also provide customers with the ability to monitor and audit file transfer activities.
 
Our solutions facilitate compliance with government regulations and industry standards relating to the protection of information while allowing users to reduce IT costs, increase efficiency, track and audit transactions, and automate processes. Our solutions also provide data replication, acceleration of file transfer, sharing/collaboration and continuous data backup and recovery to our customers.
 
Our Enhanced File Transfer, or EFT, solutions are currently our primary product. These “server side” solutions provide a common, scalable MFT platform that accommodates a broad family of add-on modules to provide small and medium-sized businesses, or SMBs, as well as larger enterprise customers, with increased security, automation, and performance when compared to traditional FTP-based and e-mail delivery systems. The add-on modules allow customers to select the solution configuration most applicable to their requirements for auditing and reporting, encryption, ad hoc and web-based file transfers, operability in or through a DMZ network, and integration with back-end business processes, including workflow automation capabilities.

scConnect is our on-premises, enterprise file synchronization and sharing solution that we introduced to the market in April 2015. scConnect provides users with secure content mobility and the ability to share and access data anytime on any device. At the same time, scConnect provides information technology department administrators with the tools necessary to maintain the security of sensitive enterprise information and to control and monitor user access and activity. Designed to replicate today’s cloud experience without the risk, reliability or confidentiality concerns of shared infrastructures, scConnect enables secure collaboration and content mobility without involving third-party servers. Created with both the information technology team and end user in mind, scConnect offers benefits that we believe exceed many cloud-based, file sharing services. Secure content mobility integrates aspects of ad hoc file transfer, broader MFT capabilities, cloud services, and remote accessibility to address the growing market demand for secure, “anytime and anywhere”, device-independent access to distributed content. We believe that the inclusion of secure content mobility capability in our portfolio, and specifically the introduction of this capability to enterprise-level organizations, will contribute to the future growth of our business due to the continuing adoption of tablet computers and smartphones. 
 
Our Wide-Area File Services, or WAFS, software product uses data synchronization to further enhance the ability to replicate, share and backup files within a wide area network or local area network allowing users to access their data at higher speeds than possible with alternate approaches. We believe this technology enables collaboration at greater efficiency levels than solutions available from our competitors or with native operating system connectivity.
 
Our Mail Express product offers managed e-mail attachment solutions for information sharing. We believe our managed e-mail attachment solution addresses the needs of customers who are constrained by the typical limits on e-mail attachment size or who require additional security, auditing, and reporting for file attachments shared through e-mail.
 
CuteFTP was our original product.  It is a file transfer program used mostly by individuals and small businesses that was first distributed in 1996 over the Internet. It remains popular today and generates revenue for us at a relatively low cost.
 
We also offer, both directly and through our partners, our software products in both a software-as-a-service, or SaaS, and cloud-based subscription solutions for information sharing. Our SaaS and cloud-based subscription solutions allow customers to reduce their upfront and total cost of ownership and achieve other recognized benefits of cloud-based solutions, including service elasticity and strong service level agreements for IT infrastructure reliability and performance.   We believe that our managed, cloud-based subscription solutions could become a larger part of our future revenue because these solutions provide recurring revenue which potentially builds over time, as compared to sales of on-premises software licenses which must be reconstituted every period. Along with our partners, we have the capability to deliver these services in North America as well as internationally in Europe and Latin America.
 
As a corporation, we have won multiple awards for performance and reputation, including:

Key Business Metrics
 
We review a number of key business metrics on an ongoing basis to help us monitor our performance and to identify material trends which may affect our business. The significant metrics we review are described below.
 
Revenue Growth

We provide products and solutions to small, medium and large multinational corporations as well as to individual consumers. We have a broad product line that has allowed us to grow revenue through software products and solutions either installed at a customer’s location or delivered through a hosted, SaaS model. We have grown our professional services capabilities to enhance our customers’ implementation, training and overall user experience. Sales of our enterprise products, solutions, and services comprise a substantial majority of our revenue. While our CuteFTP software and other consumer products are a relatively minor component of our overall revenue, they are recognized brands in the marketplace that we believe continue to have a positive effect on our overall product offerings and corporate franchise.
 
We believe annual revenue growth is a key metric for monitoring our continued success in developing our business in future periods. Given our diverse solution portfolio, we review our revenue mix and changes in revenue, across all solutions, on a regular basis to identify key trends and adjust resource allocations. We believe our revenue growth is primarily dependent upon executing our business strategies which include:

•  
Continuing innovation of core products and introducing enhanced collaboration and sharing tools.

•  
Enhancing marketing programs to expand solution awareness.

•  
Leveraging and expanding third party, channel distribution partnerships.

To support product innovation, we continue to enhance our software engineering group and our focus on optimizing the manner in which we assess the development of new technologies, our approach to managing those projects, and the timelines over which we do that work. Beginning in 2014, through organizational realignment and hiring people with improved skillsets, we increased our commitment to research and development to create and introduce new features, functions and capabilities for our products.
 
In sales and marketing, we have made and continue to make ongoing changes including:
 
·  Increasing sales staff headcount as needed to address our markets.
·  Aligning our sales group to enhance its industry and geographic focus.
·  Implementing new sales and marketing campaigns.
·  Using third party search engine optimization experts to enhance our efforts in that area.
·  Using third party lead-generation experts to increase our sales staff’s exposure to potential purchasers.
·  Recruiting industry channel partners and enabling them to sell our products through training and orientation programs.

As part of growing revenue in total, we are focused on increasing license revenue both in terms of absolute dollars and as a percent of total revenue. When we sell our licensed products, we also typically create a recurring revenue stream from M&S since almost all purchasers of our licensed products, particularly EFT, also purchase an M&S contract. Our M&S contracts are typically for one year with a growing trend toward customers buying two year or three year contracts. The customer pays us the M&S fee for the entire term of the agreement at the time the contract begins. We recognize that amount as revenue ratably in future periods over the term of the contract. We typically experience a high renewal rate for M&S services so long as a customer continues using the licensed product they purchased from us. As a result, growing license revenue not only contributes to increasing revenue growth at the time the license is sold but also provides a foundation for future recurring revenue as the purchasers of our licensed products renew M&S agreements to support their ongoing product support needs. This pattern of activity can create a cumulative effect for M&S renewals as a result of the cumulative number of licensed software installations sold over multiple years that create M&S renewals in any single year predictably (and in line with our expectations) exceeding the number of new software licenses we sell in a single year. We expect this cumulative effect to continue to grow if we continue to increase software license revenue in future periods.
 
For more information, see Comparison of the Statement of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and Comparison of the Statement of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.
 
Bookings (Non-GAAP Measurement)

Bookings is a business metric we use to measure the success of our sales and marketing programs and the effectiveness of our sales and marketing teams. Bookings arise from sales of software licenses, M&S, and professional services to our customers that consist of:

·  
Invoiced amounts for which we recognize revenue currently.
·  
Invoiced amounts for products and services sold for which we will recognize revenue in future periods.
·  
Statements of work under which customers have engaged us to deliver professional services which we will invoice in the future as we complete that work.

Bookings is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and should not be considered a substitute for revenue. Bookings has limitations as an analytical tool and when assessing our operating performance. Bookings should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenue or other income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Our bookings trends and the reconciliation of bookings to revenue are as follows ($ in thousands):

  $ 7,863     $ 6,686     $ 14,743     $ 12,413  

Prior to 2014, most of our bookings for M&S were for services to be provided for a one year period in the future. Beginning during the three months ended June 30, 2014, we began emphasizing booking M&S (and particularly M&S renewals) for two or three years in the future in order to secure revenue streams for a period of time longer than one year in the future. Due to the success of this effort, these multi-year M&S bookings contributed to a notable increase in total bookings for the three months ended June 30, 2014, since the aggregate amount of a multi-year M&S booking typically exceeds the amount of a comparable one-year M&S booking. Conversely, while a one-year M&S booking can yield a related renewal booking one year later, a multi-year M&S booking typically does not yield a renewal booking one year later.  These factors have caused both an increase in M&S renewal bookings for the three months ended June 30, 2014, that exceeded historic norms and a lower level of M&S renewal bookings during the three months ended June 30, 2015, due to the multi-year bookings during the previous year not being due for renewal in 2015. The collective result of these factors was a decrease in bookings during the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2014.
 
 
17


Bookings during the six months ended June 30, 2015, increased compared with bookings during the six months ended June 30, 2014, due to new sales and marketing campaigns that began in late 2014 that yielded an increase in one year M&S renewals during the first half of the 2015 six months that exceeded one year M&S renewals during the first half of the 2014 six months in an amount that more than offset the effects of the multi-year renewals discussed in the previous paragraph.

Adjusted EBITDA Excluding Infrequent Items (Non-GAAP Measurement)

We utilize Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Total Other Income/Expense, Depreciation, Amortization, other than amortization of capitalized software development costs, and Share-Based Compensation Expense) Excluding Infrequent Items to measure profitability and cash flow from our core operating activities. We exclude infrequent items because they typically do not directly impact profitability and cash flow resulting from our core activities. We monitor and review cost of revenues, selling, general, and administrative, or SG&A, expenses and research and development, or R&D, expenses to assess conformance with established budget expectations and to identify specific variances. Identifying and, if necessary, addressing variances above budget is important for the purpose of staying within budget ceilings. However, even variances below budget may indicate imbalances in resource allocations or deviation of operating activities from established expectations.

Adjusted EBITDA Excluding Infrequent Items is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for net income. Adjusted EBITDA Excluding Infrequent Items has limitations as an analytical tool and when assessing our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA Excluding Infrequent Items should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
 
We compute Adjusted EBITDA Excluding Infrequent Items as follows ($ in thousands):

See the section below comparing our results of operations for the 2015 quarter and the 2014 quarter and the 2015 six months and 2014 six months for discussion of the variances between periods in the components comprising Adjusted EBITDA Excluding Infrequent Items.
 
Measurement of Income and Expense Excluding Infrequent Events (Non-GAAP Measurement)
 
We use supplemental measurements of income and expense excluding infrequent items to monitor the financial performance of our core operating activities prior to consideration of significant events that occur infrequently. These measurements of income and expense excluding infrequent items include:
 
·  
Operating expenses excluding infrequent items.
·  
Operating income excluding infrequent items.
·  
Net income excluding infrequent items.
·  
Earnings per share excluding infrequent items.
 
 
18

 
We exclude infrequent items from these income and expense measurements because we do not consider them part of our core operating results when assessing our ongoing operational performance, allocating resources to our business activities and preparing operating budgets. We believe that by comparing such income and expense measurements across historical periods, our operating results can be evaluated exclusive of the effects of certain infrequent items that may not be indicative of our core operations in the future.
 
Income and expense excluding infrequent items are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for the similar items that include infrequent items. While we believe these non-GAAP income and expense measures provide useful supplemental information, there are limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP income and expense measures. These non-GAAP income and expense measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies since there is no standard for preparing these non-GAAP income and expense measures. Items excluded in preparing these non-GAAP income and expense measures individually and collectively can have a material impact on operating expenses, operating income, net income and earnings per share. As a result, these non-GAAP income and expense measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
 
During the 2015 quarter and the 2014 quarter and the 2015 six months and the 2014 six months, we had no infrequent items that made it necessary to prepare a measurement of income and expense excluding infrequent events.  Accordingly, no such measurement is presented in this Quarterly Report.
 
Software Products and Services
 
The following is a summary description of our products and solutions.
 
Managed File Transfer Solutions (On Premises and Cloud-based)
 
Our MFT products and solutions allow customers to move large files and large numbers of files securely. We facilitate management, monitoring, and reporting on the file transfers and deliver advanced workflow capabilities to move data and information into, out of, and throughout an enterprise.
 
EFT
 
We earn most of our software license revenue from sales of our suite of EFT products and solutions which was a Gold Winner in the Compliance category of the 2015 Info Security Products Guide Global Excellence Awards. These “server side” solutions provide a common, scalable MFT platform that accommodates a broad family of add-on modules to provide SMBs, as well as larger enterprise customers, with increased security, automation, and performance when compared to traditional FTP-based and e-mail delivery systems. The add-on modules allow customers to select the solution configuration most applicable to their requirements for auditing and reporting, encryption, ad hoc and web-based file transfers, operability in or through a DMZ network, and integration with back-end business processes, including workflow automation capabilities. During the past several quarters, we have released new versions of our EFT platform which added several enhancements and capabilities including, among others:
 
·  
Workspaces, which is a file-sharing module within EFT that allows employees to create their own groups and assign permissions for those groups, much like a virtual data room, to provide access to files for which they themselves have access on the EFT server.  This functionality is accomplished without compromising the security, control, and governance of those files.
·  
Active-active high availability, or HA, which maximizes uptime and performance of critical information technology systems.
·  
Enhanced compatibility of web transfer client file transfers through HTML5 support in addition to the existing Java Runtime Environment.
·  
Increased scalability and business continuity with more flexible, uninterrupted file transfer service.
·  
Improved facilitation of PCI DSS version 3.0 compliance with updates to security components, such as PGP and AS2.
·  
Addition of new Content Integrity Control providing an Internet Content Adaptation Protocol (ICAP) connector to anti-malware scanners and data loss prevention (DLP) solutions.
·  
Integration with SMS PASSCODE for Mobile-Based 2 Factor Authentication.
 
 
19

 
We continue to develop these products and solutions by, for example, improving their speed and responsiveness of performance, providing additional administration flexibility supporting cross-platform implementation with our DMZ Gateway solution, implementing business activity monitoring, and providing additional language support. We have sustained the year-to-year increase in our revenue from these products and solutions as a result of both our ongoing development of this product line that has continued to enhance its appeal in the marketplace and by delivering quality service and support for these products.  We are maintaining our focus on EFT to ensure that innovation continues with these highly valued products and that the needs of our clients are met in timely and quality fashion.
 
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and Cloud-Based EFT
 
If a customer prefers to have our EFT products and solutions delivered to them as a SaaS, cloud-based service, they can subscribe to our MIX or Hosted EFT products.   The features, functions and capabilities of our EFT products delivered in this manner are equivalent to those of our licensed EFT products discussed above.
 
These SaaS, cloud-based products offer a flexible continuum of services that give the customer the ability to pick and choose the extent to which they want to own or outsource the capabilities of our EFT products. This approach allows our customers to customize the manner in which they consume our products so as to optimize the cost/benefit of using our products in their particular environment.  We offer flexible subscription pricing under one, two, and three-year contracts that can help our customers minimize or eliminate upfront capital expenditures and reduce their ongoing operating costs. This subscription revenue provides us with a revenue stream visible into future periods. While our cloud-based MFT revenue has grown from year-to-year, it does not yet constitute a material portion of our overall revenue.
 
Secure Content Mobility Solutions
 
Our secure content mobility solutions provide the ability to easily and securely connect to and share documents, pictures, videos and music anytime, anywhere while minimizing the storage of data in the cloud and the associated security and privacy concerns. From the office, at home, or on the road, customers can connect to and access their files, stored in multiple locations, using any web browser and most internet-enabled tablets, smartphones and similar mobile devices. With these solutions, users can minimize uploading and/or syncing to a cloud storage location and eliminate the need to pay for additional cloud storage. Instead, our products securely leverage the user’s existing in-house storage devices (such as a desktop computer, in-house network servers or network-attached storage devices), allow sharing of large files, and provide encryption to safeguard content.
 
These solutions incorporate elements of on-premises software, cloud and SaaS delivery models. Unlike other remote access products that can consume significant amounts of storage capacity on a smartphone or tablet, we make content available through a secure pathway that gives users access to files on their existing in-house storage devices without having to download those files to their mobile device. This delivery method not only saves storage space on the mobile device but also ensures content remains secure and private on the user’s existing in-house storage devices without being required to upload files to a cloud repository as is required by competitive products.
 
We believe secure content mobility is a rapidly emerging, central feature of the markets we serve. We believe growth in smartphone and tablet sales and adoption, combined with rapid growth in retained content and BYOD expectations, potentially will drive strong revenue growth in this market segment particularly in the enterprise space. In order to capitalize on these trends, our emphasis continues to be on extending the TappIn technology and functionality with our existing enterprise capabilities to create a secure enterprise content mobility solution.
 
scConnect is our on-premises enterprise file synchronization and sharing solution that we introduced to the market in April 2015. scConnect provides users secure content mobility and the ability to share and access data anytime on any device. At the same time, scConnect provides information technology department administrators with the tools necessary to maintain the security of sensitive enterprise information and to control and monitor user access and activity. Designed to replicate today’s cloud experience without the risk, reliability or confidentiality concerns of shared infrastructures, scConnect enables secure collaboration and content mobility without involving third-party servers. Created with both the information technology team and end user in mind, scConnect offers benefits that we believe exceed many cloud-based, file sharing services, including:
 
 
20

 
For End Users:

·  
Provides a familiar cloud “drive”-like interface, allowing for ease of use.
·  
Offers access to everything from individual files and folders to full desktops and network shares without requiring any data to be copied or uploaded to the cloud.
·  
Imposes no software limitations on storage space that can be accessed and no limitations on file sizes that can be uploaded.
·  
Allows for sharing with users and groups both internal and external to the organization.

For Administrators:

·  
Enables administrators to give users greater control of information sharing without losing oversight or requiring trust in third-party tools and security architectures.
·  
Integrates with Active Directory/ Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) thereby aligning access with the organization’s established policies for access security and data governance.
·  
Allows administrators to apply the chosen security tools that best fit the organization in terms of two-factor authentication, anti-virus and data loss prevention.
·  
Offers fully encrypted file transfer and role-based access, as well as a comprehensive and granular dashboard for real-time, centralized user management and detailed audit trails.
  
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and Cloud-Based EFT
 
If a customer prefers to have our EFT products and solutions delivered to them as a SaaS, cloud-based service, they can subscribe to our MIX or Hosted EFT products.   The features, functions and capabilities of our EFT products delivered in this manner are equivalent to those of our licensed EFT products discussed above.
 
These SaaS, cloud-based products offer a flexible continuum of services that give the customer the ability to pick and choose the extent to which they want to own or outsource the capabilities of our EFT products. This approach allows our customers to customize the manner in which they consume our products so as to optimize the cost/benefit of using our products in their particular environment.  We offer flexible subscription pricing under one, two, and three-year contracts that can help our customers minimize or eliminate upfront capital expenditures and reduce their ongoing operating costs. This subscription revenue provides us with a revenue stream visible into future periods. While our cloud-based MFT revenue has grown from year-to-year, it does not yet constitute a material portion of our overall revenue.
 
Wide Area File Services
 
Our WAFS software provides a file sharing, collaboration, and replication solution over multiple sites. WAFS technology provides enterprises with a file access and data protection combination that centralizes data storage and IT administration facilities without compromising data sharing and protection. A key feature and benefit of WAFS is its byte-level differencing architecture that continually transmits only changed bytes (versus an entire file) thereby allowing rapid update of large files accessed by widely dispersed, multiple users. Other key features of WAFS include native file locking, replication to multiple locations simultaneously and adherence to access control list file permissions, and full UTF-8 support. We have an ongoing product development program to expand the WAFS operating specifications so that we can introduce it to a continuously broader spectrum of the marketplace and increase our revenue from this product.
 
Our most recently updated versions of WAFS improved the performance of various WAFS features such as file-based filters, accessing folders that contain a large number of files, and file copying processes and incorporated several upgrades including:
 
·  
Support for Windows Server 2012 R2.
·  
Improved performance.
·  
Enhanced reporting.
·  
Greater driver stability.
·  
Faster and more reliable collaboration and multi-user access to files.
 
We believe WAFS will be competitive in the marketplace for the foreseeable future as a product for file sharing, collaboration, and replication solution over multiple sites.

Managed E-mail Attachment Solution
 
Our managed e-mail attachment solution, Mail Express, is a client-server application that allows users to send and receive e-mail attachments of virtually unlimited size easily and transparently without resorting to unapproved and potentially insecure methods such as USB drives or social media sites.  The ability of Mail Express to transmit multi-terabyte and larger attachments, which is well beyond the operation range of typical competing approaches to sending email attachments, means the user is limited only by the available bandwidth when sending files as an email attachment. Mail Express was a Bronze Winner in the Email Security and Management category of the 2015 Info Security Products Guide Global Excellence Awards.
 
Mail Express provides increased benefits for information technology organizations by offering greater visibility into email-based file movement across the enterprise, including robust tracking and auditing. The Mail Express application provides flexible, customer-defined administration privileges to allow e-mail administrators and end users to configure specific parameters for handling e-mail attachments in accordance with corporate policy.
 
Our most recent update of Mail Express introduced new features that included:
 
·  
Optional encrypted transmission of the message body in addition to attachments.
·  
Support of FIPS 140-2 encryption protocols to provide a level of security which, in particular, supports compliance with HIPPA regulations.
·  
Improved password and user account administration and control.
·  
New elements to facilitate improved integration with our EFT product suite.
·  
Additional international language support.
·  
A dashboard allowing additional administrator visibility into all connected clients.
 
We can deliver Mail Express as software installed on the customer’s premises or as a SaaS, cloud-based solution. We believe Mail Express will be competitive in the marketplace for the foreseeable future as a product for securely sharing and managing large e-mail attachments.

Consumer-Based File Transfer Solution
 
CuteFTP is a ‘“client side” software product, installed on a user’s local computer that enables file transfers from or to a file transfer server. The target market for the CuteFTP product includes, among others, corporate IT professionals who use it to transfer data between locations via the internet and individual website operators who use it to upload their web pages to their web hosting provider.
 
CuteFTP continues to have significant brand recognition in the market.  Our current CuteFTP Version 9 introduced several notable new features including:
 
·  
Support for Unicode (UTF-8) characters that allows greater international use.
·  
Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) support to facilitate collaboration between users in editing and managing documents and files stored on World Wide Web servers.
·  
Integration with TappIn, enabled by the WebDAV support.
 
Version 9 simplified our CuteFTP product line by consolidating all the features of our previous multi-product CuteFTP product line for Windows operating systems into this single version. We continue to offer CuteFTP Version 3.1 software for Mac platforms. We believe current versions of CuteFTP appeal to users wanting features more robust than offered in free alternatives such that it will be a product competitive in the marketplace for the foreseeable future.
 
Professional Services
 
We offer a range of professional services to complement our software and cloud-based solutions. These professional services include product customization and system integration, solution “quickstart” implementations, business process and workflow, policy development, education and training, and solution health checks. In addition, we may provide longer-term engineering services, including supporting multi-year contracts, if necessary to support certain solution implementations and integrations.
 
 
22

 
Our professional services revenue is directly correlated to certain components of our cost of revenues because the services necessarily are labor intensive. For this reason, professional services typically have significantly lower margins than product sales or subscription services. However, we believe professional services allow us to better establish and maintain our solution implementations while also providing our customers with the training and education services that help them make more complete use of our solution capabilities.
 
Maintenance and Support
 
We offer maintenance and support, or M&S, contracts to licensees of all of our software products. These M&S contracts entitle the licensee to software upgrades and technical support services in accordance with the terms of our M&S contract.  Standard technical support services are provided via e-mail and telephone during our regular business hours.  For certain of our products, we offer a Platinum M&S contract which provides access to emergency technical assistance 24 hours per day, 7 days a week.
 
To facilitate self-help for common inquiries and issues, we also provide free, self-service support via user-managed searchable knowledge bases and forums on our website for those customers who prefer to assist themselves or for those without an active M&S contract.

We have made and continue to make changes in our business to increase the rate of growth of our total revenue and, in particular, our revenue across all our product lines. With respect to our sales and marketing activities, those changes have included:
 
·  Increasing sales staff headcount as needed to address our markets.
·  Aligning our sales group to enhance its industry and geographic focus.
·  Implementing new sales and marketing campaigns.
·  Using third party search engine optimization experts to enhance our efforts in that area.
·  Recruiting industry channel partners and enabling them to sell our products through training and orientation programs.
 
 
23

 
As a complement to these sales and marketing actions, we have continued to expand the capabilities of our software engineering group through organization realignment and by hiring people with improved skillsets. As result, we are able to optimize the manner in which we assess the development of new technologies, enhance our approach to managing those projects and improve the timelines over which we do that work.
 
Our total revenue increased 17.6% in the 2015 quarter compared to the 2014 quarter and 18.7% in the 2015 six months compared to the 2014 six months. License revenue increased 27.0% in the 2015 quarter compared to the 2014 quarter and 27.7% in the six months compared to the 2014 six months.  M&S revenue increased 7.3% in the 2015 quarter compared to the 2014 quarter and 9.9% in the six months compared to the 2015 six months. In general, these increases were due to the changes in our business we have made as discussed above. For a more complete discussion of our overall revenue trends and mix among products, services and M&S, see Comparison of the Statement of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, and Comparison of the Statement of Operations for the Six months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our cash and working capital positions were as follows ($ in thousands):
 
   
June 30, 2015
   
December 31, 2014
 
Cash and cash equivalents
  $ 12,853     $ 11,358  
Long term investments
    3,217       3,185  
Total cash, cash equivalents and long term investments
  $ 16,070     $ 14,543  
                 
Working capital
  $ 5,762     $ 4,072  
Deferred revenue, current portion
  $ 10,360     $ 11,411  
Working capital plus current deferred revenue (non-GAAP presentation)
  $ 16,122     $ 15,483  
 
Deferred revenue, unlike the other liability components of our working capital, is an obligation we will satisfy by providing services in the future to our customers as part of our ongoing operating activities from which we have historically generated cash flow. Our deferred revenue does not involve a disbursement of cash as a direct payment of that liability. Working capital plus deferred revenue is not a measure of financial position under GAAP, has limitations as an analytical tool and when assessing our financial position, and should not be considered a substitute for working capital computed in accordance with GAAP.
 
Our capital requirements principally relate to our need to fund our ongoing operating expenditures, which are primarily related to employee salaries and benefits. We make these expenditures to enhance our existing products, develop new products, sell those products in the marketplace and support our customers after the sale.

We rely on cash and cash flows from operations to fund our operating activities and believe those items will be our principal sources of capital for the foreseeable future. Because our principal sources of capital are cash on hand and cash flow from operations, to the extent that sales decline, our cash flow from operations could also decline.  We plan to expend significant resources in the future for research and development of our products and expansion and enhancement of our sales and marketing activities. If sales decline or if our liquidity is otherwise under duress, we could substantially reduce personnel and personnel-related costs, reduce or substantially eliminate capital expenditures and/or reduce or substantially eliminate certain research and development and sales and marketing expenditures.   We may also sell equity or debt securities or enter into credit arrangements in order to finance future acquisitions or licensing activities, to the extent available.
 
Cash provided or used by our various activities consisted of the following ($ in thousands):
 
   
Cash Provided (Used) During the Six Months Ended June 30,
 
   
2015
   
2014
 
Operating activities
  $ 2,694     $ 2,634  
Investing activities
    (1,229 )     (1,440 )
Financing activities
    30       1,044  
 
 
24

 
Our cash provided by operating activities was substantially the same for the 2015 six months compared to the 2014 six months primarily due to:
 
·  
Net income after considering adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities, as set forth on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow, increasing from $2.8 million in the 2014 six months to $3.2 million in the 2015 six months. See the section below under Comparison of the Statement of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 for a discussion of the changes in the components of these amounts.
·  
Accounts receivable decreasing $1.1 million in the 2015 six months compared to increasing $2.1 million in the 2014 six months primarily due to our efforts to improve the timeliness of payments from our customers.
·  
Income tax receivable and payable increasing $340,000 during the 2015 six months compared to decreasing $551,000 during the 2014 six months due to normal variations in the timing of our federal and state income tax payments combined with enhanced planning of the timing of those payments.
 
Offset by
 
·  
Deferred revenue decreasing $1.2 million during the 2015 six months compared to increasing $1.3 million during the 2014 six months. During the 2014 six months, we successfully migrated a number of customers with expiring, one-year M&S contracts to renewed M&S contract with terms of two or three years based on our objective of achieving a longer-term revenue commitment from those customers. Since at its inception a multi-year M&S contracts yields a larger increase in deferred revenue than a single year contract, our deferred revenue increased more during the 2014 six months than we had typically experienced in the past. Since those multi-year contracts were not due for renewal during the 2015 six months, there was no similar increase in deferred revenue during the 2015 six months. The decrease in deferred revenue during the 2015 six months was primarily a result of the continued amortization to revenue of the deferred revenue from those multi-year M&S contracts.
·  
Accounts payable decreasing $600,000 in the 2015 six months compared to increasing $342,000 in the 2014 six months primarily due to a reduction in our use of third-party software developers that we pay through trade payables and normal variations of the timing of payments to our vendors.
·  
Accrued expenses decreasing $292,000 during the 2015 six months compared to increasing $793,000 during the 2014 six months primarily due to normal variations in the timing of our payroll payment dates relative to the date of the balance sheet presented as part of our financial statements.
 
The decreased use of cash for investing activities during the 2015 six months compared to the 2014 six months was primarily due to a decrease in our software development costs that were capitalized.  While the scope and magnitude of our software development activities was substantially the same between these periods, the cost of that work was less in the 2015 six months compared to the 2014 six months due to increased use of our employees to do this work in the 2015 six months compared to the 2014 six months when we relied more on the use of higher cost, third-party software developers.
 
The decreased use of cash for financing activities during the 2015 six months compared to the 2014 six months was primarily due to:
 
·  
A decrease in cash received from the exercise of stock options due to the amount of cash received from stock option exercises during the 2014 six months being a result of changes in management leadership at that time which is an event that did not occur during the 2015 six months.
·  
A change in the tax benefit from stock-based compensation that is a result of the decrease in stock option exercise activity as described above.
·  
No principal payments on notes payable during the 2015 six months since our notes payable that were outstanding during the 2014 six months were paid-in-full during the quarter ended September 30, 2014.

Our primary obligations at June 30, 2015 were:
 
·  
An obligation to deliver services in the future to satisfy our right to earn our deferred revenue of $13.6 million. Those future services primarily relate to our obligations under M&S contracts for which we have received advance payment. We will recognize this deferred revenue as revenue over the remaining life of those contracts which generally ranges from one to three years. Deferred revenue, unlike the other liability components of our working capital, is an obligation we will satisfy through by providing services in the future to our customers as part of our ongoing operating activities from which we have historically generated cash flow. Our deferred revenue does not involve a disbursement of cash as a direct payment of that liability.
·  
Trade accounts payable, accrued liabilities, obligations under operating leases, amounts due third parties under royalty agreements, and federal and state taxes all incurred in the normal course of business.
 
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
 
At June 30, 2015, our contractual obligations and commitments consisted primarily of the following items:
 
·  
Trade accounts payable and accrued liabilities which include our contractual obligations to pay software royalties to third parties that vary in amount based on our sales volume of products upon which royalties are payable.
·  
Operating leases for our office space.
·  
Federal and state taxes.
 
We plan to continue to expend significant resources on product development, sales and marketing in future periods which may require that we enter into additional contractual arrangements and use our cash to acquire or license technology, intellectual property, products, services or businesses related to our current business strategy.
 
Our non-cancellable, contractual obligations at June 30, 2015, consisted primarily of the lease for our office space with amounts due as follows ($ in thousands):

In the discussions below, we refer to the three months ended June 30, 2015, as the “2015 quarter” and the three months ended June 30, 2014, as the “2014 quarter”. The percentage changes cited in our discussions are based on the 2015 quarter amounts compared to the 2014 quarter amounts.

Revenue.  We derive our revenue primarily from the following activities:
 
·  
License revenue from sales of our EFT and Mail Express products that we deliver as either software installed at the customer’s premises for which we earn the full amount of the license revenue at the time the license is delivered or as a managed or hosted service under our MIX and Hosted EFT brands delivered using a SaaS model for which we earn monthly subscription revenue as these services are delivered over a contract period that is typically one year.
·  
License revenue from sales of our WAFS and CuteFTP products that are installed at the customer’s premises for which we earn the full amount of the license revenue at the time the license is delivered.
·  
License revenue from delivery of our TappIn products using a SaaS model in which case we earn monthly subscription revenue as these services are delivered under typically month-to-month subscriptions.
·  
M&S revenue under contracts to provide ongoing product support and software updates to our customers who have purchased license software which we recognize ratably over the contractual period, which is typically one year, but can be up to three years.
·  
Professional services revenue from a variety of customization, implementation, and integration services, as well as delivery of education and training associated with our solutions, which we recognized as the services are performed and accepted by the client.

Our total revenue increased 17.6% in the 2015 quarter compared to the 2014 quarter.  In general, this increase was due to the changes in our business we have made as discussed above under “Solution Perspective and Trends”. Revenue trends for our individual product lines and related additional contributors to those changes are as follows:
 
·  
EFT Enterprise and Standard revenue increased 19.4% primarily due to our continued focus of a substantial portion of our resources and efforts on this product line since we believe it offers the highest potential for future growth, development of a more experienced and capable sales team, and recruitment and integration of third-party channel resellers.
 
·  
WAFS revenue decreased by 46.5% primarily due to some of our potential customers electing to forego purchasing our existing product in anticipation of the release of our next version of this product that is currently under development.
 
·  
Professional services revenue increased by 69.0% due to the increase in sales of our EFT Enterprise and Standard products with which our professional services are most closely associated.
 
·  
CuteFTP revenue decreased by 12.3% primarily a result of our continued focus of most of our attention and resources on other product lines that we believe have a higher potential for future growth.
 
·  
Other revenue increased by 57.1% primarily due to increased interest in the marketplace in procuring our managed file transfer solutions though our MIX cloud-based hosted solution and increased deliveries of Mail Express due to enhancements to this product during 2014 that have been available throughout 2015, particularly the feature supporting encryption of the body of an email sent using Mail Express.
 
License revenue increased by 27.0%. This increase was primarily due to:
 
·  
The introduction of new products or new versions of products as described above under Software Products and Services.
·  
The changes made in our sales, marketing and engineering activities as described above under Solutions Perspective and Trends.
·  
Our focus on leveraging the changes to our sales and marketing activities described above toward new customers who may not have previously used our products. While sales to existing customers often consist primarily of new modules added to existing software licenses, new customers present the potential for higher license sales since they typically need to purchase a license for our core products in addition to licenses for additional modules.
 
M&S revenue increased 7.3% primarily as a result of:
 
·  
Increased licenses sales since a majority of license sales, particularly those related to EFT, are accompanied by an M&S contract.
·  
Sustaining high renewal rates of M&S contracts by customers who initially purchased these services in earlier periods. We believe these renewals result from our programs designed to provide high-quality and responsive M&S services to our customers.
 
License revenue increased as a percent of our total revenue from 38.6% in the 2014 quarter to 41.7% in the 2015 quarter. As part of growing revenue in total, we are focused on increasing license revenue both in terms of absolute dollars and as a percent of total revenue. When we sell our licensed products, we also typically create a recurring revenue stream from M&S since almost all purchasers of our licensed products, particularly EFT, also purchase an M&S contract. In general and depending upon the level of M&S a customer purchases, this recurring revenue stream is 20% to 30% per year of the price of the underlying software license to which the M&S relates. Our M&S contracts are typically for one year, with some customers buying two or three year contracts. The customer pays us the M&S fee for the entire term of the agreement at the time the contract begins. We recognize that amount as revenue ratably in future periods over the term of the contract. We typically experience a high renewal rate for M&S services so long as a customer continues using the licensed product they purchased from us. As a result, growing license revenue not only contributes to increasing revenue growth at the time the license is sold but also provides a foundation for future recurring revenue as the purchasers of our licensed products continually renew M&S agreements to support their ongoing product support needs. This pattern of activity can create a cumulative effect for M&S renewals as a result of the cumulative number of licensed software installations sold over multiple years that create M&S renewals in any single year predictably (and in line with our expectations) exceeding the number of new software licenses we sell in a single year. We expect this cumulative effect to continue to grow if we continue to increase software license revenue in future periods.

Cost of Revenues.  These costs consist primarily of royalties, a portion of our internet access costs, hosted service expenses for our products delivered as a SaaS offering, and expenses directly associated with professional services delivery.  Cost of revenues increased 82.7% primarily due to increased demand for our professional services which created a need for us to engage additional, more expensive third-party resources to meet that demand in a timely manner.

Selling, General and Administrative.  These expenses decreased 6.1% primarily due to:

·  
Commencement of new and enhanced sales and marketing initiatives in the areas of sales lead generation and recruitment and enrollment of third-party resellers in the 2014 quarter for which some of the expenses were initiation costs that we did not incur again in the 2015 quarter.
·  
Lower bad debt expense in the 2015 quarter compared to the 2014 quarter due to enhanced accounts receivable collection activities.

Offset by:

·  
Increased salaries and wages for sales and marketing personnel as a result of having a greater number of these employees at higher average salaries.
·  
Increased sales commissions due to higher sales.
