INFORMATICA
CORPORATION
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Informatica
Corporation (“Informatica,” or the “Company”) have been prepared in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of
America. However, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed, or
omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the financial statements
include all adjustments necessary, which are of a normal and recurring nature
for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. All
of the amounts included in this report related to the condensed consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the three months ended
March 31, 2008 and 2007 are unaudited. The interim results presented are not
necessarily indicative of results for any subsequent interim period, the year
ending December 31, 2008, or any future period.
The
preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in
conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments,
and assumptions. The Company believes that the estimates, judgments, and
assumptions upon which it relies are reasonable based on information available
at the time that these estimates, judgments, and assumptions are made. These
estimates, judgments, and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. To the
extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual
results, Informatica’s financial statements would be affected. In many cases,
the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by
GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are
also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative
would not produce a materially different result.
These
unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2007 included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The condensed consolidated
balance sheet as of December 31, 2007 has been derived from the audited
consolidated financial statements of the Company.
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company derives its revenues from software license fees, maintenance fees, and
professional services, which consist of consulting and education services. The
Company recognizes revenue in accordance with AICPA SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as
amended and modified by SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions,
SOP 81-1,
Accounting for Performance of Construction-type and Certain Production-type
Contracts, the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting
Bulletin SAB 104, Revenue Recognition, and
other authoritative accounting literature.
Under
SOP 97-2, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement
exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection
is probable.
Persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists. The Company determines that persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists when it has a written contract, signed by both the customer
and the Company, and written purchase authorization.
Delivery has occurred.
Software is considered delivered when title to the physical software
media passes to the customer or, in the case of electronic delivery, when the
customer has been provided the access codes to download and operate the
software.
Fee is fixed or determinable.
The Company considers arrangements with extended payment terms not to be
fixed or determinable. If the license fee in an arrangement is not fixed or
determinable, revenue is recognized as payments become due. Revenue arrangements
with resellers and distributors require evidence of sell-through, that is,
persuasive evidence that the products have been sold to an identified end user.
The Company’s standard agreements do not contain product return
rights.
INFORMATICA
CORPORATION
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Collection is probable.
Credit worthiness and collectibility are first assessed at a country
level based on the country’s overall economic climate and general business risk.
For customers in the countries which are deemed credit-worthy, credit and
collectibility are then assessed based on their payment history and credit
profile. When a customer is not deemed credit worthy, revenue is recognized when
payment is received.
The
Company also enters into OEM arrangements that provide for license fees based on
inclusion of our technology and/or products in the OEM’s products. These
arrangements provide for fixed, irrevocable royalty payments. Royalty payments
are recognized as revenues based on the activity in the royalty report that the
Company receives from the OEM. In case of OEMs with fixed royalty payments,
revenue is recognized upon execution of the agreement, delivery of the software,
and when all other criteria for revenue recognition are met.
Multiple
contracts with a single counterparty executed within close proximity of each
other are evaluated to determine if the contracts should be combined and
accounted for as a single arrangement. The Company recognizes revenues net of
applicable sales taxes, financing charges absorbed by Informatica, and amounts
retained by our resellers and distributors, if any.
The
Company’s software license arrangements include the following multiple elements:
license fees from our core software products and/or product upgrades that are
not part of post-contract services, maintenance fees, consulting, and/or
education services. The Company uses the residual method to recognize license
revenue when the license arrangement includes elements to be delivered at a
future date and vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists
to allocate the fee to the undelivered elements of the arrangement. VSOE is
based on the price charged when an element is sold separately. If VSOE does not
exist for undelivered elements, all revenue is deferred and recognized as
delivery occurs or when VSOE is established. Consulting services, if included as
part of the software arrangement, generally do not require significant
modification or customization of the software. If the software arrangement
includes significant modification or customization of the software, software
license revenue is recognized as the consulting services revenue is
recognized.
The
Company recognizes maintenance revenues, which consist of fees for ongoing
support and product updates, ratably over the term of the contract, typically
one year.
Consulting
revenues are primarily related to implementation services and product
configurations performed on a time-and-materials basis and, occasionally, on a
fixed fee basis. Education services revenues are generated from classes offered
at both Company and customer locations. Revenues from consulting and education
services are recognized as the services are performed.
Deferred
revenues include deferred license, maintenance, consulting, and education
services revenue. For customers not deemed credit-worthy, the Company’s practice
is to net unpaid deferred revenue for that customer against the related
receivable balance.
Fair
Value Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities
In
September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”), which defines fair value and
establishes guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures
regarding fair value measurements. In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement
No. 159, The Fair Value
Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”), including an amendment
of FASB Statement No. 115, which allows an entity the irrevocable option to
elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain
financial assets and liabilities under an instrument-by-instrument election. At
January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157 and SFAS No.
159 which address aspects of the expanding application of fair value accounting.
The company has elected not to use fair value for any of its investments held as
of the beginning of the quarter ended March 31, 2008.
SFAS No.
157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs
used in measuring fair value as follows:
|
•
|
|
Level 1. Observable
inputs such as quoted prices in active
markets;
|
|
•
|
|
Level 2. Inputs, other
than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either
directly or indirectly; and
|
|
•
|
|
Level 3. Unobservable
inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the
reporting entity to develop its own
assumptions.
|
INFORMATICA
CORPORATION
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SFAS 157
allows the Company to measure the fair value of its financial assets and
liabilities based on one or more of three following valuation
techniques:
|
•
|
Market approach. Prices
and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving
identical or comparable assets or
liabilities;
|
|
•
|
|
Cost approach. Amount
that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset
(replacement cost); and

Informatica
uses a market approach
for determining the fair value of all its Level 1 and Level 2
financial assets and liabilities. The Company also held a $3 million
investment in the common stock of a privately held company at March 31, 2008,
which was classified as Level
3 for value measurement purposes. In determining the fair value of this
investment, the Company considered the pricing received by another third party
for an investment in the same privately held company with similar terms and for
the same amount and percentage of ownership interest.
Share-Based
Payments
Summary
of Assumptions
The fair
value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the
following table. The Company is using a blend of average historical and
market-based implied volatilities for calculating the expected volatilities for
employee stock options and market-based implied volatilities for its Employee
Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). The expected term of employee stock options granted
is derived from historical exercise patterns of the options while the expected
term of ESPP is based on the contractual terms. The risk-free interest rate for
the expected term of the option and ESPP is based on the U.S. Treasury yield
curve in effect at the time of grant. SFAS No. 123(R) also requires the Company
to estimate forfeitures at the time of grant and revise those estimates in
subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The
Company is using an average of the past four quarters of actual forfeited
options to determine its forfeiture rate.

2. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
The
Company’s marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale as of the
balance sheet date and are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and
losses reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive
income in stockholders’ equity, net of tax. Realized gains and losses and
permanent declines in value, if any, on available-for-sale securities are
reported in other income or expense as incurred.
Realized
gains recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2008 were $55,000. There
were no realized gains or losses recognized for the three months ended March 31,
2007. The realized gains are included in other income of the consolidated
results of operations for the respective periods. The cost of securities sold
was determined based on the specific identification method.

Note 4. Convertible Senior
Notes
On March
8, 2006, the Company issued and sold convertible senior notes with an aggregate
principal amount of $230 million due 2026 (“Notes”). The Company pays interest
at 3.0% per annum to holders of the Notes, payable semi-annually on March 15 and
September 15 of each year, commencing September 15, 2006. Each $1,000 principal
amount of Notes is initially convertible, at the option of the holders, into 50
shares of common stock prior to the earlier of the maturity date (March 15,
2026) or the redemption of the Notes. The initial conversion price represented a
premium of approximately 29.28% relative to the last reported sale price of
common stock of the Company on the NASDAQ Stock Market (Global Select) of $15.47
on March 7, 2006. The conversion rate is subject to certain adjustments. The
conversion rate initially represents a conversion price of $20.00 per share.
After March 15, 2011, the Company may from time to time redeem the Notes, in
whole or in part, for cash, at a redemption price equal to the full principal
amount of the notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. Holders of the Notes
may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes at a
purchase price in cash equal to the full principle amount of the Notes plus any
accrued and unpaid interest on March 15, 2011, March 15, 2016, and March 15,
2021, or upon the occurrence of certain events including a change in
control.
Pursuant
to a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), the Notes were sold for cash
consideration in a private placement to an initial purchaser, UBS Securities
LLC, an “accredited investor,” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“the Securities Act”), in reliance upon the
private placement exemption afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The
initial purchaser reoffered and resold the Notes to “qualified institutional
buyers” under Rule 144A of the Securities Act without being registered under the
Securities Act, in reliance on applicable exemptions from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act. In connection with the issuance of the
Notes, the Company filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC for the
resale of the Notes and the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes.
The Company also agreed to periodically update the shelf registration and to
keep it effective until the earlier of the date the Notes or the common stock
issuable upon conversion of the Notes is eligible to be sold to the public
pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act or the date on which there are no
outstanding registrable securities. The Company has evaluated the terms of the
call feature, redemption feature, and the conversion feature under applicable
accounting literature, including SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, and Emerging Issues Task Force
(“EITF”) No. 00-19, Accounting
for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and
Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, and concluded that none of
these features should be separately accounted for as derivatives.
The
Company used approximately $50 million of the net proceeds from the offering to
fund the purchase of shares of its common stock concurrently with the offering
of the Notes and intends to use the balance of the net proceeds for working
capital and general corporate purposes, which may include the acquisition of
businesses, products, product rights or technologies, strategic investments, or
additional purchases of common stock.
In
connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company incurred $6.2 million of
issuance costs, which primarily consisted of investment banker fees and legal
and other professional fees. These costs are classified within Other Assets and
are being amortized as a component of interest expense using the effective
interest method over the life of the Notes from issuance through March 15, 2026.
If the holders require repurchase of some or all of the Notes on the first
repurchase date, which is March 15, 2011, the Company would accelerate
amortization of the pro rata share of the unamortized balance of the issuance
costs on such date. If the holders require conversion of some or all of the
Notes when the conversion requirements are met, the Company would accelerate
amortization of the pro rata share of the unamortized balance of the issuance
cost to additional paid-in capital on such date. Amortization expense related to
the issuance costs was $78,000, and interest expense on the Notes was $1.7
million for both of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and
2007.
The
current market value of the convertible senior notes as of March 31, 2008 is
$257.4 million.

Note 6. Stock
Repurchases
The
purpose of Informatica’s stock repurchase program is, among other things, to
help offset the dilution caused by the issuance of stock under our employee
stock option plans. The number of shares acquired and the timing of the
repurchases are based on several factors, including general market conditions
and the trading price of our common stock. These repurchased shares are retired
and reclassified as authorized and unissued shares of common stock. These
purchases can be made from time to time in the open market and are funded from
available working capital. In April 2006, Informatica’s Board of Directors
authorized a stock repurchase program for a one-year period for up to $30
million of our common stock. As of April 30, 2007, the Company repurchased
2,238,000 shares at a cost of $30 million, including 105,000 shares during the
three months ended March 31, 2007.
In April
2007, Informatica’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program for
up to an additional $50 million of our common stock. As of March 31, 2008,
the Company repurchased 2,219,000 shares at cost of $33.9 million,
including 350,000 shares during the three months ended March 31,
2008.
In
April 2008, Informatica’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase
program for up to an additional $75 million of our common stock. Purchases
can be made from time to time in the open market and will be funded from
available working capital.
Note 7. Facilities Restructuring
Charges
2004
Restructuring Plan
In
October 2004, the Company announced a restructuring plan (“2004 Restructuring
Plan”) related to the December 2004 relocation of the Company’s corporate
headquarters within Redwood City, California. In 2005, the Company subleased the
available space at the Pacific Shores Center under the 2004 Restructuring Plan
with two subleases expiring in 2008 and 2009 with rights to extend for a period
of one and four years, respectively. The Company recorded restructuring charges
of approximately $103.6 million, consisting of $21.6 million in leasehold
improvement and asset write-offs and $82.0 million related to estimated facility
lease losses, which consist of the present value of lease payment obligations
for the remaining
INFORMATICA
CORPORATION
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
five-year
lease term of the previous corporate headquarters, net of actual and estimated
sublease income. The Company has actual and estimated sublease income, including
the reimbursement of certain property costs such as common area maintenance,
insurance, and property tax, net of estimated broker commissions of $3.9 million
for the remainder of 2008, $2.5 million in 2009, $1.4 million in 2010, $3.8
million in 2011, $4.4 million in 2012, and $2.4 million in 2013.
Subsequent
to 2004, the Company continued to record accretion on the cash obligations
related to the 2004 Restructuring Plan. Accretion represents imputed interest
and is the difference between our non-discounted future cash obligations and the
discounted present value of these cash obligations. As of March 31, 2008, the
Company will recognize approximately $10.5 million of accretion as a
restructuring charge over the remaining term of the lease, or approximately five
years, as follows: $2.5 million for the remainder of 2008, $3.0 million in 2009,
$2.3 million in 2010, $1.6 million in 2011, $0.9 million in 2012, and $0.2
million in 2013.
2001
Restructuring Plan
During
2001, the Company announced a restructuring plan (“2001 Restructuring Plan”) and
recorded restructuring charges of approximately $12.1 million, consisting of
$1.5 million in leasehold improvement and asset write-offs and $10.6 million
related to the consolidation of excess leased facilities in the San Francisco
Bay Area and Texas.
During
2002, the Company recorded additional restructuring charges of approximately
$17.0 million, consisting of $15.1 million related to estimated facility lease
losses and $1.9 million in leasehold improvement and asset write-offs. The
Company calculated the estimated costs for the additional restructuring charges
based on current market information and trend analysis of the real estate market
in the respective area.
In
December 2004, the Company recorded additional restructuring charges of $9.0
million related to estimated facility lease losses. The restructuring accrual
adjustments recorded in the third and fourth quarters of 2004 were the result of
the relocation of its corporate headquarters within Redwood City, California in
December 2004, an executed sublease for the Company’s excess facilities in Palo
Alto, California during the third quarter of 2004, and an adjustment to
management’s estimate of occupancy of available vacant facilities. In 2005, the
Company subleased the available space at the Pacific Shores Center under the
2001 Restructuring Plan through May 2013.

For the
three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company recorded $0.9 million
restructuring charges from accretion charges related to the 2004 Restructuring
Plan. Actual future cash requirements may differ from the restructuring
liability balances as of March 31, 2008 if the Company is unable to sublease the
excess leased facilities after the expiration of the subleases, there are
changes to the time period that facilities are vacant, or the actual sublease
income is different from current estimates. If the subtenants do not extend
their subleases and the Company is unable to sublease any of the related Pacific
Shores facilities during the remaining lease terms through 2013, restructuring
charges could increase by approximately $9.8 million.
Inherent
in the estimation of the costs related to the restructuring efforts are
assessments related to the most likely expected outcome of the significant
actions to accomplish the restructuring. The estimates of sublease income may
vary significantly depending, in part, on factors that may be beyond the
Company’s control, such as the time periods required to locate and contract
suitable subleases should the Company’s existing subleases elect to terminate
their sublease agreements in 2008 and 2009 and the market rates at the time of
entering into new sublease agreements.

Note 8. Income
Taxes
The
Company’s effective tax rate was 29.8% and 10.6% for the three months ended
March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three
months ended March 31, 2008 differed from the federal statutory rate of 35%
primarily due to non-deductible amortization of deferred share-based payments,
as well as the accrual of reserves pursuant to FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainties
in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement 109, offset by the
tax rate benefits of certain earnings from Informatica's operations in lower-tax
jurisdictions throughout the world for which the Company has not provided U.S.
taxes because we intend to indefinitely reinvest such earnings outside the
United States. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2007
was 10.6% and primarily represented federal alternative minimum taxes, state
minimum taxes, and income and withholding taxes attributable to foreign
operations.
The
Company released its valuation allowance for its non-stock option related
deferred tax assets in the quarter ended September 30, 2007. The benefits
related to Informatica’s stock option related deferred tax assets will be
recorded in the stockholders’ equity as realized, and as such, these deferred
tax assets will not provide a reduction in the Company’s effective tax rate.
Informatica does not anticipate providing any valuation allowance for any of its
deferred tax assets built in 2008.
The
unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would impact the income tax provision
by $7.6 million and $5.7 million as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
The Company has elected to include interest and penalties as a component of tax
expense. Accrued interest and penalties at March 31, 2008 and 2007 were
approximately $395,000 and $44,000, respectively. The Company does not
anticipate that the amount of existing unrecognized tax benefits will
significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months.
The
Company files U.S. federal income tax returns as well as income tax returns in
various states and foreign jurisdictions. We are currently under examination by
the Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years 2005 and 2006. Due to net
operating loss carry-forwards, substantially all of the Company’s tax years,
from 1995 through 2006, remain open to tax examination. Recently the Company has
also been informed by some state taxing authorities that we were selected for
examination. Most state and foreign jurisdictions have three or four open tax
years at any point in time. The field work for the state audits did not commence
as of March 31, 2008. Although the outcome of any tax audit is uncertain, the
Company believes that it has adequately provided in its financial
statements for any additional taxes that it may be required to pay as a result
of such examinations. If the payment ultimately proves to be unnecessary, the
reversal of these tax liabilities would result in tax benefits in the period
that the Company had determined such liabilities were no longer necessary.
However, if an ultimate tax assessment exceeds our estimate of tax liabilities,
additional tax provision might be required.
Note
9. Net Income per Common Share
Under the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 128, Earnings per Share, basic net
income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the
potential dilution of securities by adding other common stock equivalents,
primarily stock options and common shares potentially issuable under the terms
of the convertible senior notes, to the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding during the period, if dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities have
been excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share if their
inclusion is antidilutive.

Diluted
net income per common share is calculated according to SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share, which
requires the dilutive effect of convertible securities to be reflected in the
diluted net income per share by application of the “if-converted” method. This
method assumes an add-back of interest and amortization of issuance cost, net of
income taxes, to net income if the securities are converted. The Company
determined that for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the
convertible senior notes had a dilutive effect on diluted net income per share,
and as such, it had an add-back of $1.1 million in interest and issuance cost
amortization, net of income taxes, to net income for the diluted net income per
share calculation for both periods.
Note 10. Commitments and
Contingencies
Lease
Obligations
In
December 2004, the Company relocated its corporate headquarters within Redwood
City, California and entered into a new lease agreement. The initial lease term
was from December 15, 2004 to December 31, 2007 with a three-year option to
renew to December 31, 2010 at fair market value. In May 2007, the Company
exercised its renewal option to extend the office lease term to December 31,
2010. The future minimum contractual lease payments are $2.8 million for the
remainder of 2008, and $4.0 million and $4.2 million for the years ending
December 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.
The
Company entered into two lease agreements in February 2000 for two office
buildings at the Pacific Shores Center in Redwood City, California, which was
used as its former corporate headquarters from August 2001 through December
2004. The leases expire in July 2013. As part of these agreements, the Company
purchased certificates of deposit totaling approximately $12 million as a
security deposit for lease payments. These certificates of deposit are
classified as long-term restricted cash on the Company’s condensed consolidated
balance sheet.
The
Company leases certain office facilities under various non-cancelable operating
leases, including those described above, which expire at various dates through
2013 and require the Company to pay operating costs, including property taxes,
insurance, and maintenance. Operating lease payments in the table below include
approximately $88.1 million for operating lease commitments for facilities that
are included in restructuring charges. See Note 7. Facilities Restructuring
Charges, above, for a further discussion.

Of these
future minimum lease payments, the Company has accrued $72.8 million in the
facilities restructuring accrual at March 31, 2008. This accrual includes the
minimum lease payments of $88.1 million and an estimate for operating expenses
of $17.1 million and sublease commencement costs associated with excess
facilities and is net of estimated sublease income of $21.9 million and a
present value discount of $10.5 million recorded in accordance with SFAS No.
146.
In
December 2005, the Company subleased 35,000 square feet of office space at the
Pacific Shores Center, its former corporate headquarters, in Redwood City,
California through May 2013. In June 2005, the Company subleased 51,000 square
feet of office space at the Pacific Shores Center, its previous corporate
headquarters, in Redwood City, California through August 2008 with an option to
renew through July 2013. In February 2005, the Company subleased 187,000 square
feet of office space at the Pacific Shores Center for the remainder of the lease
term through July 2013 with a right of termination by the subtenant that is
exercisable in July 2009. In March 2004, the Company signed a sublease agreement
for leased office space in Scotts Valley, California.
Warranties
The
Company generally provides a warranty for its software products and services to
its customers for a period of three to six months and accounts for its
warranties under the SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.
The Company’s software products’ media are generally warranted to be free
from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use, and the products are
also generally warranted to substantially perform as described in certain
Company documentation and the product specifications. The Company’s services are
generally warranted to be performed in a professional manner and to materially
conform to the specifications set forth in a customer’s signed contract. In the
event there is a failure of such warranties, the Company generally will correct
or provide a reasonable work-around or replacement product. The Company has
provided a warranty accrual of $0.2 million as of March 31, 2008 and December
31, 2007. To date, the Company’s product warranty expense has not been
significant.
Indemnification
The
Company sells software licenses and services to its customers under contracts,
which the Company refers to as the License to Use Informatica Software (“License
Agreement”). Each License Agreement contains the relevant terms of the
contractual arrangement with the customer and generally includes certain
provisions for indemnifying the customer against losses, expenses, liabilities,
and damages that may be awarded against the customer in the event the Company’s
software is found to infringe upon a patent, copyright, trademark, or other
proprietary right of a third party. The License Agreement generally limits the
scope of and remedies for such indemnification obligations in a variety of
industry-standard respects, including but not limited to certain time and scope
limitations and a right to replace an infringing product with a non-infringing
product.
The
Company believes its internal development processes and other policies and
practices limit its exposure related to the indemnification provisions of the
License Agreement. In addition, the Company requires its employees to sign a
proprietary information and inventions agreement, which assigns the rights to
its employees’ development work to the Company. To date, the Company has not had
to reimburse any of its customers for any losses related to these
indemnification provisions, and no material claims against the Company are
outstanding as of March 31, 2008. For several reasons, including the lack of
prior indemnification claims and the lack of a monetary liability limit for
certain infringement cases under the License Agreement, the Company cannot
determine the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, related to
such indemnification provisions.
INFORMATICA
CORPORATION
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
In
addition, we indemnify our officers and directors under the terms of indemnity
agreements entered into with them, as well as pursuant to our certificate of
incorporation, bylaws, and applicable Delaware law. To date, we have not
incurred any costs related to these indemnifications.
The
Company accrues for loss contingencies when available information indicates that
it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred
and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, in accordance with SFAS
No. 5, Accounting for
Contingencies.
Litigation
On
November 8, 2001, a purported securities class action complaint was filed in the
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case is entitled
In re Informatica Corporation
Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, Civ. No.
01-9922 (SAS) (S.D.N.Y.), related to In re Initial Public Offering Securities
Litigation, 21 MC 92 (SAS) (S.D.N.Y.). Plaintiffs’ amended complaint was
brought purportedly on behalf of all persons who purchased our common stock from
April 29, 1999 through December 6, 2000. It names as defendants Informatica
Corporation, two of our former officers (the “Informatica defendants”), and
several investment banking firms that served as underwriters of our April 29,
1999 initial public offering and September 28, 2000 follow-on public offering.
The complaint alleges liability as to all defendants under Sections 11 and/or 15
of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b) and/or 20(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, on the grounds that the registration statements for the
offerings did not disclose that: (1) the underwriters had agreed to allow
certain customers to purchase shares in the offerings in exchange for excess
commissions paid to the underwriters; and (2) the underwriters had arranged for
certain customers to purchase additional shares in the aftermarket at
predetermined prices. The complaint also alleges that false analyst reports were
issued. No specific damages are claimed.
Similar
allegations were made in other lawsuits challenging over 300 other initial
public offerings and follow-on offerings conducted in 1999 and 2000. The cases
were consolidated for pretrial purposes. On February 19, 2003, the Court ruled
on all defendants’ motions to dismiss. The Court denied the motions to dismiss
the claims under the Securities Act of 1933. The Court denied the motion to
dismiss the Section 10(b) claim against Informatica and 184 other issuer
defendants. The Court denied the motion to dismiss the Section 10(b) and 20(a)
claims against the Informatica defendants and 62 other individual
defendants.
We
accepted a settlement proposal presented to all issuer defendants. In this
settlement, plaintiffs will dismiss and release all claims against the
Informatica defendants, in exchange for a contingent payment by the insurance
companies collectively responsible for insuring the issuers in all of the IPO
cases, and for the assignment or surrender of control of certain claims we may
have against the underwriters. The Informatica defendants will not be required
to make any cash payments in the settlement, unless the pro rata amount paid by
the insurers in the settlement exceeds the amount of the insurance coverage, a
circumstance that we do not believe will occur. Any final settlement will
require approval of the Court after class members are given the opportunity to
object to the settlement or opt out of the settlement.
In
September 2005, the Court granted preliminary approval of the settlement. The
Court held a hearing to consider final approval of the settlement on April 24,
2006, and took the matter under submission. In the interim, the Second Circuit
reversed the class certification of plaintiffs’ claims against the underwriters.
Miles v. Merrill Lynch &
Co. (In re
Initial Public Offering
Securities Litigation), 471 F.3d 24 (2d Cir. 2006). On April 6, 2007, the
Second Circuit denied plaintiffs’ petition for rehearing, but clarified that the
plaintiffs may seek to certify a more limited class in the district court.
Accordingly, the parties withdrew the prior settlement, and plaintiffs filed
amended complaints in focus or test cases in an attempt to comply with the
Second Circuit’s ruling.
On July
15, 2002, we filed a patent infringement action in U.S. District Court in
Northern California against Acta Technology, Inc. (“Acta”), now known as
Business Objects Data Integration, Inc. (“BODI”), asserting that certain Acta
products infringe on three of our patents: U.S. Patent No. 6,014,670, entitled
“Apparatus and Method for Performing Data Transformations in Data Warehousing,”
U.S. Patent No. 6,339,775, entitled “Apparatus and Method for Performing Data
Transformations in Data Warehousing” (this patent is a continuation in part of
and claims the benefit of U.S. Patent No. 6,014,670), and U.S. Patent No.
6,208,990, entitled “Method and Architecture for Automated Optimization of ETL
Throughput in Data Warehousing Applications.” On July 17, 2002, we filed an
amended complaint alleging that Acta products also infringe on one additional
patent: U.S. Patent No. 6,044,374, entitled “Object References for Sharing
Metadata in Data Marts.” In the suit, we are seeking an injunction against
future sales of the infringing Acta/BODI products, as well as damages for past
sales of the infringing products. On September 5, 2002, BODI answered the
complaint and filed counterclaims against us seeking a declaration that each
patent asserted is not infringed and is invalid and
INFORMATICA

NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
unenforceable.
BODI has not made any claims for monetary relief against us and has not filed
any counterclaims alleging that we have infringed any of BODI’s patents. On
October 11, 2006, in response to the parties’ cross-motions for summary
judgment, the Court ruled that U.S. Patent No. 6,044,374 was not infringed as a
matter of law. However, the Court found that there remained triable issues of
fact as to infringement and validity of the three remaining patents. On February
26, 2007, as stipulated by both parties, the Court dismissed the infringement
claims on U.S. Patent No. 6,208,990 as well as BODI’s counterclaims on this
patent. We have asserted that BODI’s infringement of the Informatica patents was
willful and deliberate.
The trial
began on March 12, 2007 on the two remaining patents (U.S. Patent No. 6,014,670
and U.S. Patent No. 6,339,775) originally asserted in 2002 and a verdict was
reached on April 2, 2007. During the trial, the judge determined that, as a
matter of law, BODI and its customers’ use of the Acta/BODI products infringe on
our asserted patents. The jury unanimously determined that our patents are
valid, that BODI’s infringement on our patents was done willfully and that a
reasonable royalty for BODI’s infringement is $25.2 million. The jury’s
determination that BODI’s infringement was willful permits the judge to increase
the damages award by up to three times. On May 16, 2007, the judge issued a
permanent injunction preventing BODI from shipping the infringing technology now
and in the future.
As a
result of post-trial motions, the judge has asked the parties to brief the issue
of whether the damages award should be reduced in light of the United States
Supreme Court’s April 30, 2007 AT&T Corp. v. Microsoft
Corp. decision (which examines the territorial reach of U.S. patents).
The post-trial motions filed focused on the amount of damages awarded and did
not alter the jury’s determination of validity or willful infringement or the
judge’s grant of the permanent injunction. The court issued and we accepted a
damage award of $12.2 million in light of AT&T Corp. v. Microsoft
Corp. On October 29,
2007, the court entered final judgment on the case for that amount and on
December 18, 2007, the Court awarded us an additional amount of $1.7 million for
prejudgment interest. On November 28, 2007, BODI filed its Notice of
Appeal and on December 12, 2007, we filed our Notice of Cross
Appeal. The parties have been in the process of filing appeal briefs,
including responses and replies, which is expected to continue through July
2008.
On August
21, 2007, Juxtacomm Technologies (“Juxtacomm”) filed a complaint in the Eastern
District of Texas against 21 defendants, including us, alleging patent
infringement. We filed an answer to the complaint on October 10, 2007. It is our
current assessment that our products do not infringe Juxtacomm’s patent and that
potentially the patent itself is invalid due to significant prior art. We intend
to vigorously defend ourselves.
We are
also a party to various legal proceedings and claims arising from the normal
course of business activities.
Note 11. Significant Customer
Information and Segment Reporting
SFAS No.
131, Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, establishes
standards for the manner in which public companies report information about
operating segments in annual and interim financial statements. It also
establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers. The method for determining the
information to report is based on the way management organizes the operating
segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing
financial performance.
The
Company is organized and operates in a single segment: the design, development,
marketing, and sales of software solutions. The Company’s chief operating
decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information
presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions and
assessing financial performance.

Note 12. Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements
(“SFAS No. 157”), which defines fair value, establishes guidelines for
measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements.
SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but rather
eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting
pronouncements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the Board decided to issue final Staff
Position (“FSP FAS 157-2”) that will (1) partially deferred the effective date
of SFAS No. 157, for one year for certain nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial
liabilities, and (2) removed certain leasing transactions from the scope of FAS
157. This FSP effectively delays the implementation of this pronouncement for
certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities to fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company
adopted SFAS No. 157, except as it applies to those nonfinancial assets and
nonfinancial liabilities as noted in FSP FAS 157-2. The partial adoption of
SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial
position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company is currently
evaluating the accounting and disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 157 for its
nonfinancial assets and liabilities.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”), including an amendment of FASB Statement
No. 115, which allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value for
the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and
liabilities under an instrument-by-instrument election. Subsequent measurements
for the financial assets and liabilities an entity elects to fair value will be
recognized in earnings. Statement No. 159 also establishes additional disclosure
requirements. Statement No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007, and its adoption is not expected to have an impact on the
consolidated financial statements since the Company has not elected to use fair
value to measure any of its existing financial assets and
liabilities.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations, which
addresses the accounting and reporting standards for the business combinations.
This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those
fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company will adopt
this statement as required, and is currently evaluating the related accounting
and disclosure requirements.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS No.
160”), which addresses accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling
interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This
pronouncement also amends certain of ARB 51’s consolidation procedures for
consistency with requirements of FASB 141 (revised 2007). This statement is
effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years,
beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company will adopt this consensus
as required, and its adoption is not expected to have an impact on the
consolidated financial statements.

(Continued)
In
March 2008, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 161 (“SFAS 161”), Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS 161 requires companies with
derivative instruments to disclose information that should enable financial
statement users to understand how and why a company uses derivative instruments,
how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB
Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities and how derivative instruments and
related hedged items affect a company's financial position, financial
performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15,
2008. The Company
will adopt this consensus as required, and its adoption is not expected to have
an impact on the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
This
quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the
meaning of the federal securities laws, particularly statements referencing our
expectations relating to license revenues, service revenues, deferred revenues,
cost of license revenues as a percentage of license revenues, cost of service
revenues as a percentage of service revenues, and operating expenses as a
percentage of total revenues; the recording of amortization of acquired
technology, share-based payments; provision for income
taxes; deferred taxes; international expansion; the ability of our
products to meet customer demand; continuing impacts from our 2004 and 2001
Restructuring Plans; the sufficiency of our cash balances and cash flows for the
next 12 months; our stock repurchase program; investment and potential
investments of cash or stock to acquire or invest in complementary businesses,
products, or technologies; the impact of recent changes in accounting standards;
the agreement to acquire Identity Systems; the expected timing of the closing of
the acquisition of Identity Systems; and assumptions underlying any of the
foregoing. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the
use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,”
“anticipates,” “estimates,” “potential,” or “continue,” or the negative thereof,
or other comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations
reflected in the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable,
these expectations or any of the forward-looking statements could prove to be
incorrect, and actual results could differ materially from those projected or
assumed in the forward-looking statements. Our future financial condition and
results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to
risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the factors set forth
under Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors. All forward-looking statements and reasons
why results may differ included in this Report are made as of the date hereof,
and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements or
reasons why actual results may differ.
The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
report.
Overview
We are
the leading independent provider of enterprise data integration software. We
generate revenues from sales of software licenses for our enterprise data
integration software products and from sales of services, which consist of
maintenance, consulting, and education services.
We
receive revenues from licensing our products under perpetual licenses directly
to end users and indirectly through resellers, distributors, and OEMs in the
United States and internationally. We also receive a small amount of revenues
under subscription-based licenses for on-demand offerings from customers and
partners. Our software license revenues also include software upgrades, which
are not part of post-contract services. Most of our international sales have
been in Europe, and revenue outside of Europe and North America has comprised 6%
or less of total consolidated revenues during the last three years. We receive
service revenues from maintenance contracts, consulting services, and education
services that we perform for customers that license our products either directly
or indirectly.
We
license our software and provide services to many industry sectors, including,
but not limited to, energy and utilities, financial services, insurance,
government and public sector, healthcare, high-technology, manufacturing,
retail, services, telecommunications, and transportation.
Despite
the uncertainties in the financial markets, and the slowdown in certain sectors
of the United States economy, we were able to grow our revenues in the first
quarter of 2008 such that our total revenues increased 19% to $103.7 million
compared to $87.1 million in the first quarter of 2007. License revenues
increased 18% year-over-year, primarily as a result of increases in the volume
of our transactions, increased sales productivity, and growth in international
revenues. Services revenues increased 20% due to increased contribution from the
new releases of our existing products that resulted in a 21% increase in our
training and consulting revenues. We also had a 20% increase in maintenance
revenues, mainly due to the increased size of our installed customer
base.
Due
to our dynamic market, we face both significant opportunities and challenges,
and as such, we focus on the following key factors:
•
|
Competition:
Inherent in our industry are risks arising from competition with
existing software solutions, including solutions from IBM, Oracle, and
SAP, technological advances from other vendors, and the perception of cost
savings by solving data integration challenges through customer hand-coded
development resources. Our prospective customers may view these
alternative solutions as more attractive than our offerings. Additionally,
the consolidation activity in our industry (including Business Objects’
|
acquisition
of FirstLogic, Oracle’s acquisition of BEA Systems, Sunopsis and Hyperion
Solutions, IBM’s acquisition of DataMirror and Cognos, and SAP’s acquisition of
Business Objects) could pose challenges as competitors market a broader suite of
software products or solutions to our prospective customers.
•
|
New Product
Introductions: To address the expanding data integration and data
integrity needs of our customers and prospective customers, we continue to
introduce new products and technology enhancements on a regular basis. In
September 2007, we announced a new Informatica On Demand service:
Informatica Data Quality Assessment for salesforce.com which uses
pre-defined rules to identify missing, invalid, and duplicate data. In
October 2007, we delivered the generally available release of PowerCenter
8.5, PowerExchange 8.5, and Informatica Data Quality 8.5, a version
upgrade to our entire data integration platform. New product introductions
and/or enhancements have inherent risks including, but not limited to,
product availability, product quality and interoperability, and customer
adoption or the delay in customer purchases. Given the risks and new
nature of the products, we cannot predict their impact on our overall
sales and revenues.
|
•
|
Quarterly
and Seasonal Fluctuations: Historically, purchasing patterns in the
software industry have followed quarterly and seasonal trends and are
likely to do so in the future. Specifically, it is normal for us to
recognize a substantial portion of our new license orders in the last
month of each quarter and sometimes in the last few weeks of each quarter,
though such fluctuations are mitigated somewhat by recognition of backlog
orders. In recent years, the fourth quarter has had the highest level of
license revenue and order backlog, and we have generally had weaker demand
for our software products and services in the first and third
quarters.
|
To
address these potential risks, we have focused on a number of key initiatives,
including the strengthening of our partnerships, the broadening of our
distribution capability worldwide, and the targeting of our sales force and
distribution channel on new products.
We are
concentrating on maintaining and strengthening our relationships with our
existing strategic partners and building relationships with additional strategic
partners. These partners include systems integrators, resellers and
distributors, and strategic technology partners, including enterprise
application providers, database vendors, and enterprise information integration
vendors, in the United States and internationally. In February 2008, we launched
our new worldwide partner program, INFORM, which is comprised of
a set of programs and services to help partners develop and promote solutions in
conjunction with Informatica. In March 2008, we announced that Wipro
Technologies selected Informatica Data Migration Suite to power its Data
Migration Services. Within the past year, we signed OEM agreements with Cognos
(acquired by IBM), FAST (which recently received an acquisition offer from
Microsoft), and other vendors. These are in addition to our global OEM
partnerships with Oracle (Hyperion Solutions and Siebel), and our partnership
with salesforce.com. See “Risk Factors - We rely on our relationships with
our strategic partners.
If we do not maintain and strengthen these relationships, our ability to generate revenue and
control expenses could be adversely affected, which could cause a
decline in the price of our common stock” in Part II, Item
1A.
We have
broadened our distribution efforts, and we have continued to expand our sales
both in terms of selling data warehouse products to the enterprise level and of
selling more strategic data integration solutions beyond data warehousing,
including data quality, data migrations, data consolidations, data
synchronizations, data hubs, and cross-enterprise data integration to our
customers’ enterprise architects and chief information officers. We have
expanded our international sales presence by opening new offices and increasing
headcount. This included opening sales offices in Brazil, China, India, Italy,
Japan, Mexico, South Korea, and Taiwan in 2005, 2006, and 2007. We also
established training partnerships in late 2006 in India, Latin America, and the
United States to provide hands-on product training for customers and partners.
As a result of this international expansion, as well as the increase in our
direct sales headcount in the United States, our sales and marketing expenses
have increased accordingly during 2005, 2006, and 2007. We expect these
investments to result in increased revenues and productivity and ultimately
higher profitability. However, if we experience an increase in sales personnel
turnover, do not achieve expected increases in our sales pipeline, experience a
decline in our sales pipeline conversion ratio, or do not achieve increases in
sales productivity and efficiencies from our new sales personnel as they gain
more experience, then it is unlikely that we will achieve our expected increases
in revenue, sales productivity, or profitability. We have experienced some
increases in revenues and sales productivity in the United States in the past
few years. During the past year, we have also experienced increases in revenues
and sales productivity internationally, but we have not yet achieved the same
level of sales productivity internationally as domestically.
To
address the risks of introducing new products, we have continued to invest in
programs to help train our internal sales force and our external distribution
channel on new product functionalities, key differentiations, and key business
values. These programs include Informatica World for customers and partners, our
annual sales kickoff conference for all sales and key marketing personnel in
January, “Webinars” for our direct sales force and indirect distribution
channel, in-person technical seminars for our pre-sales consultants, the
building of product demonstrations, and creation and distribution of targeted
marketing collateral. We have also invested
in partner enablement programs, including product-specific briefings to partners
and the inclusion of several partners in our beta programs.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
In
preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements, we make assumptions,
judgments, and estimates that can have a significant impact on amounts reported
in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We base our assumptions,
judgments, and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that
we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ
materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On a
regular basis we evaluate our assumptions, judgments, and estimates and make
changes accordingly. We also discuss our critical accounting estimates with the
Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. We believe that the assumptions,
judgments, and estimates involved in the accounting for revenue recognition,
facilities restructuring charges, income taxes, accounting for impairment of
goodwill, acquisitions, and share-based payments have the greatest potential
impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements, so we consider these
to be our critical accounting policies. We discuss below the critical accounting
estimates associated with these policies. Historically, our assumptions,
judgments, and estimates relative to our critical accounting policies have not
differed materially from actual results. For further information on our
significant accounting policies, see the discussion in Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies, and Note 12. Recent Accounting Pronouncements, of Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this
Report.
Revenue
Recognition
We follow
detailed revenue recognition guidelines, which are discussed below. We recognize
revenue in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in
the United States that have been prescribed for the software industry. The
accounting rules related to revenue recognition are complex and are affected by
interpretations of the rules, which are subject to change. Consequently, the
revenue recognition accounting rules require management to make significant
judgments, such as determining if collectibility is probable.
We derive
revenues from software license fees, maintenance fees (which entitle the
customer to receive product support and unspecified software updates), and
professional services, consisting of consulting and education services. We
follow the appropriate revenue recognition rules for each type of revenue. The
basis for recognizing software license revenue is determined by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement of Position
(“SOP”) 97-2 Software Revenue
Recognition, together with other authoritative literature including, but
not limited to, the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting
Bulletin (“SAB”) 104, Revenue
Recognition. Other authoritative literature is discussed in the
subsection Revenue Recognition
in Note 1. Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies, of Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report. Substantially
all of our software licenses are perpetual licenses under which the customer
acquires the perpetual right to use the software as provided and subject to the
conditions of the license agreement. We recognize revenue when persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or
determinable, and collection is probable. In applying these criteria to revenue
transactions, we must exercise judgment and use estimates to determine the
amount of software, maintenance, and professional services revenue to be
recognized each period.
We assess
whether fees are fixed or determinable prior to recognizing revenue. We must
make interpretations of our customer contracts and exercise judgments in
determining if the fees associated with a license arrangement are fixed or
determinable. We consider factors including extended payment terms, financing
arrangements, the category of customer (end-user customer or reseller), rights
of return or refund, and our history of enforcing the terms and conditions of
customer contracts. If the fee due from a customer is not fixed or determinable
due to extended payment terms, revenue is recognized when payment becomes due or
upon cash receipt, whichever is earlier. If we determine that a fee due from a
reseller is not fixed or determinable upon shipment to the reseller, we do not
recognize the revenue until the reseller provides us with evidence of
sell-through to an end-user customer and/or upon cash receipt. Further, we make
judgments in determining the collectibility of the amounts due from our
customers that could possibly impact the timing of revenue recognition. We
assess credit worthiness and collectibility, and, when a customer is not deemed
credit worthy, revenue is recognized when payment is received.
Our
software license arrangements include the following multiple elements: license
fees from our core software products and/or product upgrades that are not part
of post-contract services, maintenance fees, consulting, and/or education
services. We use the residual method to recognize license revenue upon delivery
when the arrangement includes elements to be delivered at a future date and
vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists to allocate the
fee to the undelivered elements of the arrangement. VSOE is based on the price
charged when an element is sold separately. If VSOE does not exist for any
undelivered software
product element of the arrangement, all revenue is deferred until all elements
have been delivered, or VSOE is established. If VSOE does not exist for any
undelivered services elements of the arrangement, all revenue is recognized
ratably over the period that the services are expected to be performed. We are
required to exercise judgment in determining if VSOE exists for each undelivered
element.
Consulting
services, if included as part of the software arrangement, generally do not
require significant modification or customization of the software. If, in our
judgment, the software arrangement includes significant modification or
customization of the software, then software license revenue is recognized as
the consulting services revenue is recognized.
Consulting
revenues are primarily related to implementation services and product
configurations. These services are performed on a time-and-materials basis and,
occasionally, on a fixed-fee basis. Revenue is generally recognized as these
services are performed. If uncertainty exists about our ability to complete the
project, our ability to collect the amounts due, or in the case of fixed-fee
consulting arrangements, our ability to estimate the remaining costs to be
incurred to complete the project, revenue is deferred until the uncertainty is
resolved.
Multiple
contracts with a single counterparty executed within close proximity of each
other are evaluated to determine if the contracts should be combined and
accounted for as a single arrangement.
We
recognize revenues net of applicable sales taxes, financing charges absorbed by
Informatica, and amounts retained by our resellers and distributors, if any. Our
agreements do not permit returns, and historically we have not had any
significant returns or refunds; therefore, we have not established a sales
return reserve at this time.
Facilities
Restructuring Charges
During
the fourth quarter of 2004, we recorded significant charges (2004 Restructuring
Plan) related to the relocation of our corporate headquarters to take advantage
of more favorable lease terms and reduced operating expenses. In addition, we
significantly increased the 2001 restructuring charges (2001 Restructuring Plan)
in the third and fourth quarters of 2004 due to changes in our assumptions used
to calculate the original charges as a result of our decision to relocate our
corporate headquarters. The accrued restructuring charges represent gross lease
obligations and estimated commissions and other costs (principally leasehold
improvements and asset write-offs), offset by actual and estimated gross
sublease income, which is net of estimated broker commissions and tenant
improvement allowances, expected to be received over the remaining lease
terms.
These
liabilities include management’s estimates pertaining to sublease activities.
Inherent in the assessment of the costs related to our restructuring efforts are
estimates related to the most likely expected outcome of the significant actions
to accomplish the restructuring. We will continue to evaluate the commercial
real estate market conditions periodically to determine if our estimates of the
amount and timing of future sublease income are reasonable based on current and
expected commercial real estate market conditions. Our estimates of sublease
income may vary significantly depending, in part, on factors that may be beyond
our control, such as the time periods required to locate and contract suitable
subleases and the market rates at the time of such subleases. Currently, we have
subleased our excess facilities in connection with our 2004 and 2001 facilities
restructuring but for durations that are generally less than the remaining lease
terms.
If we
determine that there is a change in the estimated sublease rates or in the
expected time it will take us to sublease our vacant space, we may incur
additional restructuring charges in the future and our cash position could be
adversely affected. See Note 7. Facilities Restructuring Charges,
of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I,
Item 1 of this Report. Future adjustments to the charges could result from
a change in the time period that the buildings will be vacant, expected sublease
rates, expected sublease terms, and the expected time it will take to sublease.
We will periodically assess the need to update the original restructuring
charges based on current real estate market information, trend analysis, and
executed sublease agreements.
Accounting
for Income Taxes
We use
the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this
method, income tax expenses or benefits are recognized for the amount of taxes
payable or refundable for the current year and for deferred tax liabilities and
assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in
our consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Effective January 1, 2007,
we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in
Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement 109 (“FIN 48”)
to account for any income tax contingencies. The measurement of
current and deferred tax assets and liabilities is based on provisions of
currently enacted tax laws. The effects of future changes in tax laws or rates
are not contemplated.
As part
of the process of preparing consolidated financial statements, we are required
to estimate our income taxes and tax contingencies in each of the tax
jurisdictions in which we operate prior to the completion and filing of tax
returns for such periods. This process involves estimating actual current tax
expense together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing
treatment of items, such as deferred revenue, for tax and accounting purposes.
These differences result in net deferred tax assets and liabilities. We must
then assess the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be realizable and
to the extent we believe that realizability is not likely, we must establish a
valuation allowance.
We
released our valuation allowance in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 for our
non-stock option related deferred tax assets. As required under SFAS 109, we do
not anticipate the need to establish valuation allowance for deferred tax assets
built during the current year. The remaining deferred tax assets subject to
valuation allowance are related to stock option deductions, the benefit of which
will be recorded in stockholders’ equity when realized. These remaining deferred
tax assets will not provide a reduction in our effective tax rate.
Accounting
for Impairment of Goodwill
We assess
goodwill for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,
which requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the “reporting unit
level” (“Reporting Unit”) at least annually and more frequently upon the
occurrence of certain events, as defined by SFAS No. 142. Consistent
with our determination that we have only one reporting segment, we have
determined that there is only one Reporting Unit. Goodwill was tested for
impairment in our annual impairment tests on October 31 in each of the
years 2007, 2006, and 2005 using the two-step process required by
SFAS No. 142. First, we reviewed the carrying amount of the Reporting
Unit compared to the “fair value” of the Reporting Unit based on quoted market
prices of our common stock. If such comparison reflected potential impairment,
we would then prepare the discounted cash flow analyses. Such analyses are based
on cash flow assumptions that are consistent with the plans and estimates being
used to manage the business. An excess carrying value compared to fair value
would indicate that goodwill may be impaired. Finally, if we determined that
goodwill may be impaired, then we would compare the “implied fair value” of the
goodwill, as defined by SFAS No. 142, to its carrying amount to
determine the impairment loss, if any.
Based on
these estimates, we determined in our annual impairment tests at
October 31, 2007 that the fair value of the Reporting Unit exceeded
the carrying amount and, accordingly, goodwill was not impaired. Assumptions and
estimates about future values and remaining useful lives are complex and often
subjective. They can be affected by a variety of factors, including such
external factors as industry and economic trends and such internal factors as
changes in our business strategy and our internal forecasts. Although we believe
the assumptions and estimates we have made in the past have been reasonable and
appropriate, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact our
reported financial results.
Acquisitions
We are
required to allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible
and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, as well as purchased
in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) based on their estimated fair
values. This valuation requires management to make significant estimates and
assumptions, especially with respect to long-lived and intangible
assets.
Critical
estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets include but are not
limited to future expected cash flows from customer contracts, customer lists,
distribution agreements, and acquired developed technologies and patents;
expected costs to develop the IPR&D into commercially viable products and
estimating cash flows from the projects when completed; the acquired company’s
brand awareness and market position, as well as assumptions about the period of
time the brand will continue to be used in the combined company’s product
portfolio; and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based
upon assumptions believed to be reasonable but which are inherently uncertain
and unpredictable. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and
unanticipated events and circumstances may occur.
Share-Based
Payments
We
account for share-based payments related to share-based transactions in
accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). Under the fair
value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), share-based payment
is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of
the award and is recognized as an expense ratably over its requisite service
period. Determining the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair
value of share-based awards requires judgment, including estimating stock price
volatility, forfeiture rates, and expected life.
We have
estimated the expected volatility as an input into the Black-Scholes-Merton
valuation formula when assessing the fair value of options granted. Our current
estimate of volatility was based upon a blend of average historical and
market-based implied volatilities of our stock price that we have used
consistently since the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). Our historical volatility
rates decreased in 2008 from 2007 primarily due to more stable stock prices in
recent quarters and exclusion of more volatile years from the calculation of our
historical volatility rates. Our implied volatility rates have remained
relatively unchanged. Our weighted-average volatility rates were at 39% in the
first quarter of 2008 down from 41% in the first quarter of 2007. To the extent
volatility of our stock price increases in the future, our estimates of the fair
value of options granted in the future will increase accordingly. For instance,
a 10 percentage points higher volatility would have resulted in a
$1.4 million increase in the fair value of options granted during the first
quarter of 2008.
Our
expected life of options granted was derived from the historical option
exercises, post-vesting cancellations, and estimates concerning future exercises
and cancellations for vested and unvested options that remain outstanding. We
assumed an expected life of 3.3 years in 2007 and the first quarter of
2008.
In
addition, we apply an expected forfeiture rate in determining the grant date
fair value of our option grants. Our estimate of the forfeiture rate is based on
an average of actual forfeited options for the past four quarters. During the
quarter ended March 31, 2008, we lowered our forfeiture rate from 13% to 10%
based on the average of actual forfeited options during the past four quarters,
which increased our share-based payments in the first quarter of 2008 by
approximately $0.5 million.
We
believe that the estimates that we have used for the calculation of the
variables to arrive at share-based payments are accurate. We will, however,
continue to monitor the historical performance of these variables and will
modify our methodology and assumptions in the future as needed.

License
Revenues
Our
license revenues increased to $44.2 million (or 43% of total revenues) for the
three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $37.6 million (or 43% of total
revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The $6.6 million (or 18%)
increase in license revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared
to the same period in 2007, was primarily due to an increase in the volume of
transactions, which was partially offset by a slight decrease in the average
size of the transactions. We have two types of
upgrades: (1) upgrades that are not part of the post-contract services for which
we charge customers an additional fee, and (2) unspecified upgrades that are
part of the post-contract services that we provide to our customers at no
additional charge. The average transaction amount for orders greater than
$100,000 in the first quarter of 2008, including upgrades, slightly declined to
$299,000 from
$303,000 in the first quarter of 2007. Further, we had three transactions of
$1.0 million or more in the first quarter of 2008 as well as in the first
quarter of 2007.
Services
Revenues
Maintenance
Revenues
Maintenance
revenues increased to $41.4 million (or 40% of total revenues) for the three
months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $34.6 million (or 40% of total
revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The $6.8 million (or 20%)
increase in the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to the same period
in 2007, was primarily due to an increase in the size of our customer
base. For the remainder of 2008, based on our growing
installed customer base, we expect maintenance revenues to increase from
the comparable 2007 levels.
Consulting
and Education Services Revenues
Consulting and education
services revenues increased to $18.1 million (or 17% of total revenues) for the
three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $14.9 million (or 17% of total
revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The $3.2 million (or 21%)
increase in the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to the same period
in 2007, was primarily due to an increase in demand and an increase in
capacity to meet the demand for consulting services in North America, Europe,
and Latin America. For the remainder of 2008, we expect to maintain our current
utilization rates and continue to add overall consulting capacity, and thus we
expect revenues from consulting and education services to increase from
comparable 2007 levels.
International
Revenues
Our
international revenues were $34.4 million (or 33% of total revenues) and $21.9
million (or 25% of total revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and
2007, respectively. The $12.5 million (or 57%) increase for the three months
ended March 31, 2008, compared to the same period in 2007, was primarily due to
an increase in international license revenue, and to a lesser extent, an
increase in international services revenue. The increase in international
revenues as a percentage of total revenues was mainly driven by an increase in
our international sales resources and capacity during the first quarter of
2008. For
the remainder of 2008, we expect international revenues as a percentage of total
revenues to be relatively consistent with, or increase slightly from the 2007
levels.
Future
Revenues (New Orders, Backlog, and Deferred Revenues)
Our
future revenues are dependent upon the following: (1) new orders received,
shipped, and recognized in a given quarter and (2) our backlog and deferred
revenues entering a given quarter. Our backlog consists primarily of product
license orders that have not shipped as of the end of a given quarter and orders
to certain distributors, resellers, and OEMs where revenue is recognized upon
cash receipt. Our deferred revenues are primarily comprised of the following:
(1) maintenance revenues that we recognize over the term of the contract,
typically one year, (2) license product orders that have shipped but where the
terms of the license agreement contain acceptance language or other terms that
require that the license revenues be deferred until all revenue recognition
criteria are met or recognized ratably over an extended period, and (3)
consulting and education services revenues that have been prepaid but for which
services have not yet been performed. We typically ship products shortly after
the receipt of an order, which is common in the software industry, and
historically our backlog of license orders awaiting shipment at the end of any
given quarter has varied. However, our backlog
typically decreases from the prior quarter at the end of the first and third
quarters and increases at the end of the fourth quarter. Aggregate
backlog and deferred revenues at March 31, 2008, were approximately $136.5
million, compared to $114.3 million at March 31, 2007, and $140.4 million at
December 31, 2007. Backlog and deferred
revenues as of any particular date are not necessarily indicative of future
results.

Cost
of License Revenues
Our cost
of license revenues consists primarily of software royalties, product packaging,
documentation, and production costs. Cost of license revenues decreased to $0.7
million (or 2% of license revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2008
from $0.8 million (or 2% of license revenues) for the three months ended March
31, 2007. The $0.1 million (or 14%) decrease in cost of license revenues for the
three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 was due to
the smaller portfolio of royalty based products being shipped in the first
quarter of 2008. For the remainder of 2008, we expect the cost of license
revenues as a percentage of license revenues to be relatively consistent with or
slightly higher than in the first quarter of 2008.
Cost
of Service Revenues
Our cost
of service revenues is a combination of costs of maintenance, consulting, and
education services revenues. Our cost of maintenance revenues consists primarily
of costs associated with customer service personnel expenses and royalty fees
for maintenance related to third-party software providers. Cost of consulting
revenues consists primarily of personnel costs and expenses incurred in
providing consulting services at customers’ facilities. Cost of education
services revenues consists primarily of the costs of providing education classes
and materials at our headquarters, sales and training offices, and customer
locations. Cost of service revenues increased to $19.8 million (or 33% of
service revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2008 from $16.3 million
(or 33% of service revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The $3.5
million or 21% increase for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to
the same period in 2007, was primarily due to headcount growth in the customer
support, professional services, and education service groups, and higher
subcontractor fees in the consulting services group. For the remainder of 2008,
we expect our cost of service revenues as a percentage of service revenues to be
relatively consistent with the first quarter of 2008, or increase slightly from
the current levels if the growth in our consulting services business, if any, is
greater than that experienced by our maintenance and education services
business.

of acquired technology is the amortization of technologies acquired through
business acquisitions and technology licenses. Amortization of acquired
technology decreased to $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008,
compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The decrease
of $0.1 million (or 14%) for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to
the same period in the prior year, is the result of certain technologies related
to the Striva acquisition that were fully amortized as of December 31, 2007. We
expect amortization of other acquired technology to be approximately $1.9
million for the remainder of 2008, before the effect of any pending or future
acquisitions subsequent to March 31, 2008.

Our
research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and other
personnel-related expenses, consulting services, facilities, and related
overhead costs associated with the development of new products, the enhancement
and localization of existing products, and quality assurance and development of
documentation for our products. Research and development expenses increased to
$17.7 million (or 17% of total revenues) for the three months ended March 31,
2008, compared to $18.0 million (or 21% of total revenues) for the three months
ended March 31, 2007. The $0.3 million (or 2%) decrease for the three months
ended March 31, 2008, compared to the same period in 2007, was due to a $2.4
million decrease in legal fees associated with the patent litigation held in the
first quarter of 2007, offset partially by a $1.9 million increase in
personnel-related costs, and a $0.2 million increase in share-based payments.
All of our software development costs have been expensed in the period incurred
since the costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological
feasibility and have not been significant. For the remainder of 2008, we expect
the research and development expenses as a percentage of total revenues to be
relatively consistent with or slightly decrease from the first quarter of

March 31, 2008, compared to the same period in 2007, was primarily due to a $8.0
million increase in personnel-related costs, as a result of an increase in
headcount from 426 in March 2007 to 522 in March 2008, offset by a $0.3 million
decrease in share-based payments and a $0.2 million decrease in outside

million or 8% increase for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to
the same period in 2007, is primarily due to an increase of $0.7 million in
personnel related costs due to headcount increases (from 142 in March 2007 to
168 in March 2008) offset by a $0.1 million decrease in outside services. For

trade names, and covenants not to compete through prior business acquisitions.
Amortization of intangible assets was relatively flat during these periods. We
expect amortization of the remaining intangible assets to be approximately $1.0
million for the remainder of 2008, before the impact of any amortization for any
possible intangible assets acquired as part of the pending or any future
acquisitions as of March 31, 2008.

In the
three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, we recorded $0.9 million and $1.0
million for restructuring charges from accretion charges related to the 2004
Restructuring Plan, respectively.
As of
March 31, 2008, $72.8 million of total lease termination costs, net of actual
and expected sublease income, less broker commissions and tenant improvement
costs related to facilities to be subleased, was included in accrued
restructuring charges and is expected to be paid by 2013.
2004
Restructuring Plan
Net cash
payments related to the consolidation of excess facilities under the 2004
Restructuring Plan amounted to $2.0 million and $2.6 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Actual future cash
requirements may differ from the restructuring liability balances as of March
31, 2008 if there are changes to the time period that facilities are expected to
be vacant or if the actual sublease income differs from our current
estimates.
2001
Restructuring Plan
Net cash
payments related to the consolidation of excess facilities under the 2001
Restructuring Plan amounted to $0.3 million and $0.9 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Actual future cash
requirements may differ from the restructuring liability balances as of March
31, 2008 if there are changes to the time period that facilities are vacant or
the actual sublease income is different from current estimates.
In
addition, we will continue to evaluate our current facilities requirements to
identify facilities that are in excess of our current and estimated future
needs. We will also evaluate the assumptions related to estimated future
sublease income for excess facilities. Accordingly, any changes to these
estimates of excess facilities costs could result in additional charges that
could materially affect our consolidated financial position and results of
operations. See Note 7. Facilities Restructuring
Charges, of Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this
Report.

Interest
income, expense and other consist primarily of interest income earned on our
cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and restricted cash; interest
expense; and gains and losses on foreign exchange transactions. The increase of
$0.4 million or 13% in the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to the
same period in 2007, was primarily due to a $0.6 million increase in foreign
exchange gains due to the decline in the value of U.S. dollar, which was
partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in interest income due to lower
investment yields. We currently do not engage in any foreign currency hedging
activities and, therefore, are susceptible to fluctuations in foreign exchange
gains or losses in our results of operations in future reporting periods. As
interest rates continue to decline, we expect our interest income to decline
accordingly.

Our
effective tax rate was 29.8% and 10.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2008
and 2007, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March
31, 2008 differed from the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to
non-deductibility of share-based payments, as well as the accrual of reserves
pursuant to FIN 48, Accounting
for Uncertainties in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement
109, offset by the tax rate benefits of certain earnings from our
operations in lower-tax jurisdictions throughout the world. We have not
provided for U.S. taxes in any of these jurisdictions since we intend to
reinvest these earnings in their respective jurisdictions indefinitely. The
10.6% effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2007 primarily
represented federal alternative minimum taxes, state minimum taxes, and income
and withholding taxes attributable to foreign operations.
The
unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would impact our income tax provision
by $7.6 million and $5.7 million as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. We
have elected to include interest and penalties as a component of tax expense.
Accrued interest and penalties at March 31, 2008 and 2007 were approximately
$395,000 and $44,000, respectively. We do not anticipate that the amount of
existing unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease
within the next 12 months.
We expect
to maintain an effective tax rate close to what was experienced in the first
quarter of 2008 on a going forward basis. Our statutory tax rate of 35% is
generally affected by lower tax rates applicable to foreign jurisdictions and
domestic tax credits.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
We have
funded our operations primarily through cash flows from operations and public
offerings of our common stock. As of March 31, 2008, we had $522.8 million in
available cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments and $12.0 million
of restricted cash under the terms of our Pacific Shores property leases and
$0.1 million restricted cash under the terms of our Australia
lease.
Our
primary sources of cash are the collection of accounts receivable from our
customers and proceeds from the exercise of stock options and sales of our
common stock under our employee stock purchase plan. Our uses of cash include
payroll and payroll-related expenses and operating expenses such as marketing
programs, travel, professional services, and facilities and related costs. We
have also used cash to purchase property and equipment, repurchase common stock
from the open market to reduce the dilutive impact of stock option issuances,
and acquire businesses and technologies to expand our product offerings. On
April 17, 2008, Informatica Corporation entered into a stock purchase agreement
with Nokia Inc. and Intellisync Corporation, pursuant to which Informatica will
acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Identity Systems, Inc., a
Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intellisync, for
approximately $85 million in cash. The transaction is subject to
customary closing conditions and is expected to close by the end of May
2008.
Operating Activities: Cash
provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was
$29.0 million, representing an increase of $2.2 million from the three months
ended March 31, 2007. This increase primarily resulted from $2.1 million
increase in net income, after adjusting for non-cash expenses, an increase in
cash collections against accounts receivable, and an increase in accounts
payable, offset by payments to reduce our accrual for excess facilities, excess
tax benefits from share-based
payments,
and accrued liabilities. We were able to recognize the excess tax benefits from
share-based payments for $2.3 million during the three months ended March 31,
2008. This amount is recorded as a use of operating activities and an offsetting
amount is recorded as a provision by financing activities. We made cash payments
for taxes in different jurisdictions for $4.5 million during the three months
ended March 31, 2008. Our “Days Sales Outstanding” in accounts receivable
decreased from 47 days at March 31, 2007 to 40 days at March 31, 2008. Days
outstanding at March 31, 2008 were primarily impacted by improvements to
our collection efforts and also due to more revenue booked and invoiced during
the first month of the quarter in 2008 compared to 2007. Cash provided by
operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $26.9
million, primarily resulted from our net income, after adjusting for non-cash
expenses, an increase in cash collections against accounts receivable, and an
increase in accounts payable, offset by payments to reduce our accrual for
excess facilities, and accrued liabilities. Our operating cash flows will also
be impacted in the future by the timing of payments to our vendors and payments
for taxes.
Investing Activities: We
acquire property and equipment in the normal course of our business. The amount
and timing of these purchases and the related cash outflows in future periods
depend on a number of factors, including the hiring of employees, the rate of
upgrade of computer hardware and software used in our business, as well as our
business outlook. We have classified our investment portfolio as “available for
sale,” and our investment objectives are to preserve principal and provide
liquidity while maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. We may
sell an investment at any time if the quality rating of the investment declines,
the yield on the investment is no longer attractive, or we need additional cash.
Since we invest only in money market funds and short-term marketable securities,
we believe that the purchase, maturity, or sale of our investments has no
material impact on our overall liquidity. We have used cash to acquire
businesses and technologies that enhance and expand our product offerings, and
we anticipate that we will continue to do so in the future. The nature of these
transactions makes it difficult to predict the amount and timing of such cash
requirements. In March 2008, we invested $3.0 million in the preferred stock of
a privately held company that we will account for on a cost basis.
Financing Activities: We
receive cash from the exercise of common stock options and the sale of common
stock under our employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”). Net cash provided by
financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $9.7 million
due to the issuance of common stock to option holders and to participants of our
ESPP program for $13.8 million, and $2.3 million of excess tax benefits from
share-based payments which were partially offset by a $6.3 million repurchase
and retirement of common stock. Net cash provided by financing activities for
the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $7.1 million due to the issuance of
common stock to option holders and to participants of our ESPP program for $8.5
million partially offset by $1.4 million repurchase and retirement of common
stock. Although we expect to continue to receive some proceeds from the issuance
of common stock to option holders and participants of ESPP in future periods,
the timing and amount of such proceeds are difficult to predict and are
contingent on a number of factors, including the price of our common stock, the
number of employees participating in our stock option plans and our employee
stock purchase plan, and overall market conditions.
In March
2006, we issued and sold convertible senior notes with an aggregate principal
amount of $230 million due in 2026 (“Notes”). We used approximately $50 million
of the net proceeds from the offering to fund the purchase of 3,232,000 shares
of our common stock concurrently with the offering of the Notes. We intend to
use the balance of the net proceeds for working capital and general corporate
purposes, which may include the acquisition of businesses, products, product
rights or technologies, strategic investments, or additional purchases of common
stock.
In April
2006, our Board of Directors authorized and announced a stock repurchase program
of up to $30 million of our common stock until April 2007. As of April 30, 2007,
we repurchased 2,238,000 shares of our common stock for $30 million. In April
2007, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program for up to an
additional $50 million of our common stock. As of March 31, 2008, we
repurchased 2,219,000 shares of our common stock for $33.9 million. One purpose
of the program is to partially offset the otherwise dilutive impact of stock
option exercise activity. The number of shares to be purchased and the timing of
purchases are based on several factors, including the price of our common stock,
general business and market conditions, and other investment opportunities.
These repurchased shares will be retired and reclassified as authorized and
unissued shares of common stock. See Part II, Item 2 of this Report for more
information regarding the stock repurchase program. The timing and terms of the
transactions will depend on market conditions, our liquidity, and other
considerations. Further, in April 2008, our Board of Directors authorized a
stock repurchase program for up to an additional $75 million of our common
stock. Purchases can be made from time to time in the open market and will be
funded from our available cash.
We
believe that our cash balances and the cash flows generated by operations will
be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash needs for working capital and
capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Given our cash balances,
it is less likely but still possible that we may require or desire additional
funds for purposes, such as acquisitions, and may raise such additional funds
through public or private equity or debt financing or from other sources. We may
not be able to obtain adequate or favorable financing at that time, and any
financing we obtain might be dilutive to our stockholders.
Letters
of Credit
A
financial institution has issued a $12.0 million letter of credit which requires
us to maintain certificates of deposit as collateral until the leases expire in
2013. This letter of credit is for our former corporate headquarters leases at
the Pacific Shores Center in Redwood City, California. In May 2007, another
financial institution issued a $0.1 million letter of credit for our Australia
lease. These certificates of deposit are classified as long-term restricted cash
on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The letters of credit of $12.0
million and $0.1 million currently bear interest of 2.3% and 7.6%, respectively.
There are no financial covenant requirements under our letters of
credit.

following table summarizes our significant contractual obligations, including

Other
purchase obligations and commitments include minimum royalty payments
under license agreements and do not include purchase obligations discussed
below.
|
Our
contractual obligations for 2008 include the lease term for our headquarters
office in Redwood City, California, which is from December 15, 2004 to December
31, 2010. Minimum contractual lease payments are $2.8 million for the remainder
of 2008, and $4.0 million, and $4.2 million for the years ending December 31,
2009 and 2010, respectively.
The
information also excludes the $7.6 million of unrecognized tax benefits
discussed in Note 8. Income
Taxes, of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I,
Item 1 of this Report because it is not possible to estimate the time period
that it might be paid to tax authorities.
Purchase
orders or contracts for the purchase of certain goods and services are not
included in the preceding table. We cannot determine the aggregate amount of
such purchase orders that represent contractual obligations because purchase
orders may represent authorizations to purchase rather than binding agreements.
For the purposes of this table, contractual obligations for purchase of goods or
services are defined as agreements that are enforceable and legally binding and
that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be
purchased; fixed, minimum, or variable price provisions; and the approximate
timing of the transaction. Our purchase orders are based on our current needs
and are fulfilled by our vendors within short time horizons. We also enter into
contracts for outsourced services; however, the obligations under these
contracts were not significant and the contracts generally contain clauses
allowing for cancellation without significant penalty. Contractual obligations
that are contingent upon the achievement of certain milestones are not included
in the table above.
We base
our estimates of the expected timing of payment of the obligations discussed
above on current information. Timing of payments and actual amounts paid may be
different depending on the time of receipt of goods or services or changes to
agreed-upon amounts for some obligations.
Operating
Leases
We lease
certain office facilities and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases.
During 2004, we recorded restructuring charges related to the consolidation of
excess leased facilities in Redwood City, California. Operating lease payments
in the table above include approximately $88.1 million, net of actual sublease
income, for operating lease commitments for those facilities that are included
in restructuring charges. See Note 7. Facilities Restructuring Charges
and Note 9. Commitments
and Contingencies, of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report.
We have
$72.8 million in the restructuring and excess facilities accrual at March 31,
2008. This includes a minimum lease payment of $88.1 million, plus estimated
operating expenses of $17.1 million, less estimated sublease income of $21.9
million, and less the present value impact of $10.5 million recorded in
accordance with SFAS No. 146. Our sublease income assumptions are
based on existing sublease agreements and current market conditions and other
factors. Our estimates of sublease income for periods following the expiration
of our sublease agreements may vary significantly from actual amounts realized
depending, in part, on factors that may be beyond our control, such as the time
periods required to locate and contract suitable subleases and the market rates
at the time of such subleases.
In
relation to our excess facilities, we may decide to negotiate and enter into
lease termination agreements, if and when the circumstances are appropriate.
These lease termination agreements would likely require that a significant
amount of the remaining future lease payments be paid at the time of execution
of the agreement, but would release us from future lease payment obligations for
the abandoned facility. The timing of a lease termination agreement and the
corresponding payment could materially affect our cash flows in the period of
payment.
The
expected timing of payment of the obligations discussed above is estimated based
on current information. Timing of payments and actual amounts paid may be
different.
We have
sublease agreements for leased office space at the Pacific Shores Center in
Redwood City, and in Scotts Valley, California. In the event the sublessees are
unable to fulfill their obligations, we would be responsible for rent due under
the leases. We expect at this time that the sublessees will fulfill their
obligations under the terms of the current lease agreements.
In
February 2000, we entered into two lease agreements for two buildings in Redwood
City, California (our former corporate headquarters), which we occupied from
August 2001 through December 2004. The lease expires in July 2013. As part of
these agreements, we have purchased certificates of deposit totaling
approximately $12 million as a security deposit for lease payments.
Off-Balance-Sheet
Arrangements
We do not
have any off-balance-sheet financing arrangements or transactions, or
relationships with “special purpose entities.”
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET
RISK
All
market risk sensitive instruments were entered into for non-trading purposes. We
do not use derivative financial instruments.
Interest
Rate Risk
Our
exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our
investment portfolio. We do not use derivative financial instruments in our
investment portfolio. The primary objective of our investment activities is to
preserve principal while maximizing yields without significantly increasing
risk. Our investment policy specifies credit quality standards for our
investments and limits the amount of credit exposure to any single issue,
issuer, or type of investment. Our investments consist primarily of U.S.
government notes and bonds, corporate bonds, commercial paper, and municipal
securities. All investments are carried at market value, which approximates
cost.
For the
three months ended March 31, 2008, the average annual rate of return on our
investments was 4.1%. Our cash equivalents and short-term investments are
subject to interest rate risk and will decline in value if market interest rates
increase. As of March 31, 2008, we had net unrealized gains of $1.4 million
associated with these securities. If market interest rates were to increase
immediately and uniformly by 100 basis points from levels as of March 31, 2008,
the fair market value of the portfolio would change by approximately $1.1
million. We have the ability to hold our investments until maturity and,
therefore, we would not necessarily expect to realize an adverse impact on
income or cash flows.
Foreign
Currency Risk
We market
and sell our software and services through our direct sales force and indirect
channel partners in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America.
Accordingly, we are subject to exposure from adverse movements in foreign
currency exchange rates. To date, the effect of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates on revenue and operating expenses has not been material.
Operating expenses incurred by our foreign subsidiaries are denominated
primarily in local currencies. We currently do not use financial instruments to
hedge these operating expenses. We will continue to assess the need to utilize
financial instruments to hedge currency exposures on an ongoing
basis.
The
functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries is their local currency, except
for Informatica Cayman Ltd., which is in euros. Our exposure to foreign exchange
risk is related to the magnitude of foreign net profits and losses denominated
in foreign currencies, in particular the euro and British pound, as well as our
net position of monetary assets and monetary liabilities in those foreign
currencies. These exposures have the potential to produce either gains or losses
within our consolidated results. Our foreign operations, however, in most
instances act as a natural hedge since both operating expenses as well as
revenues are generally denominated in their respective local currency. In these
instances, although an unfavorable change in the exchange rate of foreign
currencies against the U.S. dollar will result in lower revenues when
translated into U.S. dollars, the operating expenditures will be lower as
well. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative trading
purposes.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls
and Procedures. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our
Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of
our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information we
are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (i) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within
the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and
forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to Informatica’s management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our
disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance
that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management. Our
disclosure controls and procedures include components of our internal control
over financial reporting. Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting is expressed at the level of
reasonable assurance because a control system, no matter how well designed and
operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the
control system’s objectives will be met.
Changes in Internal Control over
Financial Reporting. There was no change in our system of internal
control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2008
that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.
On
November 8, 2001, a purported securities class action complaint was filed in the
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case is entitled
In re Informatica Corporation
Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, Civ. No. 01-9922 (SAS)
(S.D.N.Y.), related to In re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, 21
MC 92 (SAS) (S.D.N.Y.). Plaintiffs’ amended complaint was brought
purportedly on behalf of all persons who purchased our common stock from April
29, 1999 through December 6, 2000. It names as defendants Informatica
Corporation, two of our former officers (the “Informatica defendants”), and
several investment banking firms that served as underwriters of our April 29,
1999 initial public offering and September 28, 2000 follow-on public offering.
The complaint alleges liability as to all defendants under Sections 11 and/or 15
of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b) and/or 20(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, on the grounds that the registration statements for the
offerings did not disclose that: (1) the underwriters had agreed to allow
certain customers to purchase shares in the offerings in exchange for excess
commissions paid to the underwriters; and (2) the underwriters had arranged for
certain customers to purchase additional shares in the aftermarket at
predetermined prices. The complaint also alleges that false analyst reports were
issued. No specific damages are claimed.
Similar
allegations were made in other lawsuits challenging over 300 other initial
public offerings and follow-on offerings conducted in 1999 and 2000. The cases
were consolidated for pretrial purposes. On February 19, 2003, the Court ruled
on all defendants’ motions to dismiss. The Court denied the motions to dismiss
the claims under the Securities Act of 1933. The Court denied the motion to
dismiss the Section 10(b) claim against Informatica and 184 other issuer
defendants. The Court denied the motion to dismiss the Section 10(b) and 20(a)
claims against the Informatica defendants and 62 other individual
defendants.
We
accepted a settlement proposal presented to all issuer defendants. In this
settlement, plaintiffs will dismiss and release all claims against the
Informatica defendants, in exchange for a contingent payment by the insurance
companies collectively responsible for insuring the issuers in all of the IPO
cases, and for the assignment or surrender of control of certain claims we may
have against the underwriters. The Informatica defendants will not be required
to make any cash payments in the settlement, unless the pro rata amount paid by
the insurers in the settlement exceeds the amount of the insurance coverage, a
circumstance which we do not believe will occur. Any final settlement will
require approval of the Court after class members are given the opportunity to
object to the settlement or opt out of the settlement.
In
September 2005, the Court granted preliminary approval of the settlement. The
Court held a hearing to consider final approval of the settlement on April 24,
2006, and took the matter under submission. In the interim, the Second Circuit
reversed the class certification of plaintiffs’ claims against the underwriters.
Miles v. Merrill Lynch &
Co. (In re Initial
Public Offering Securities Litigation), 471 F.3d 24 (2d
Cir. 2006). On April 6, 2007, the Second Circuit denied plaintiffs’ petition for
rehearing, but clarified that the plaintiffs may seek to certify a more limited
class in the district court. Accordingly, the parties withdrew the prior
settlement, and plaintiffs filed amended complaints in focus or test cases in an
attempt to comply with the Second Circuit’s ruling.
On July
15, 2002, we filed a patent infringement action in U.S. District Court in
Northern California against Acta Technology, Inc. (“Acta”), now known as
Business Objects Data Integration, Inc. (“BODI”), asserting that certain Acta
products infringe on three of our patents: U.S. Patent No. 6,014,670, entitled
“Apparatus and Method for Performing Data Transformations in Data Warehousing,”
U.S. Patent No. 6,339,775, entitled “Apparatus and Method for Performing Data
Transformations in Data Warehousing” (this patent is a continuation in part of
and claims the benefit of U.S. Patent No. 6,014,670), and U.S. Patent No.
6,208,990, entitled “Method and Architecture for Automated Optimization of ETL
Throughput in Data Warehousing Applications.” On July 17, 2002, we filed an
amended complaint alleging that Acta products also infringe on one additional
patent: U.S. Patent No. 6,044,374, entitled “Object References for Sharing
Metadata in Data Marts.” In the suit, we are seeking an injunction against
future sales of the infringing Acta/BODI products, as well as damages for past
sales of the infringing products. On September 5, 2002, BODI answered the
complaint and filed counterclaims against us seeking a declaration that each
patent asserted is not infringed and is invalid and unenforceable. BODI has not
made any claims for monetary relief against us and has not filed any
counterclaims alleging that we have infringed any of BODI’s patents. On October
11, 2006, in response to the parties’ cross-motions for summary judgment, the
Court ruled that U.S. Patent No. 6,044,374 was not infringed as a matter of law.
However, the Court found that there remained triable issues of fact as to
infringement and validity of the three remaining patents. On February 26, 2007,
as stipulated by both parties, the Court dismissed the infringement claims on
U.S. Patent No. 6,208,990 as well as BODI’s counterclaims on this patent. We
have asserted that BODI’s infringement of the Informatica patents was willful
and deliberate.
The trial
began on March 12, 2007 on the two remaining patents (U.S. Patent No. 6,014,670
and U.S. Patent No. 6,339,775) originally asserted in 2002 and a verdict was
reached on April 2, 2007. During the trial, the judge determined that, as a
matter of law, BODI and its customers’ use of the Acta/BODI products infringe on
our asserted patents. The jury unanimously determined that our patents are
valid, that BODI’s infringement on our patents was done willfully and that a
reasonable royalty for BODI’s infringement is $25.2 million. The jury’s
determination that BODI’s infringement was willful permits the judge to increase
the damages award by up to three times. On May 16, 2007, the judge issued a
permanent injunction preventing BODI from shipping the infringing technology now
and in the future.
As a
result of post-trial motions, the judge has asked the parties to brief the issue
of whether the damages award should be reduced in light of the United States
Supreme Court’s April 30, 2007 AT&T Corp. v. Microsoft Corp.
decision (which examines the territorial reach of U.S. patents). The
post-trial motions filed focused on the amount of damages awarded and did not
alter the jury’s determination of validity or willful infringement or the
judge’s grant of the permanent injunction. The court issued and we accepted a
damage award of $12.2 million in light of AT&T Corp. v. Microsoft
Corp. On October 29, 2007, the court entered final judgment on the case
for that amount and on December 18, 2007, the Court awarded us an additional
amount of $1.7 million for prejudgment interest. On November 28, 2007, BODI
filed its Notice of Appeal and on December 12, 2007, we filed our Notice of
Cross Appeal. The parties have been in the process of filing appeal briefs,
including responses and replies, which is expected to continue through July
2008.
On August
21, 2007, Juxtacomm Technologies (“Juxtacomm”) filed a complaint in the Eastern
District of Texas against 21 defendants, including us, alleging patent
infringement. We filed an answer to the complaint on October 10, 2007. It is our
current assessment that our products do not infringe Juxtacomm’s patent and that
potentially the patent itself is invalid due to significant prior art. We intend
to vigorously defend ourselves.
We are
also a party to various legal proceedings and claims arising from the normal
course of business activities.
Based on
current available information, we do not expect that the ultimate outcome of
these unresolved matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows, or financial
position.
In
addition to the other information contained in this Form 10-Q, we have
identified the following risks and uncertainties that may have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operation.
Investors should carefully consider the risks described below before making an
investment decision. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to
any of these risks, and investors may lose all or part of their investment. In
assessing these risks, investors should also refer to the other information
contained in our other SEC filings, including our Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2007.
If we do not
compete effectively with companies selling data integration products,
our
revenues may not grow and could decline.
The
market for our products is highly competitive, quickly evolving, and subject to
rapidly changing technology. In addition, consolidation among vendors in the
software industry continues at a rapid pace. Our competition consists of
hand-coded, custom-built data integration solutions developed in-house by
various companies in the industry segments that we target, as well as other
vendors of integration software products, including Ab Initio, Business Objects
(which acquired FirstLogic and was recently acquired by SAP), IBM (which
acquired Ascential Software, DataMirror and Cognos), Oracle (which acquired BEA
Systems, Sunopsis, Hyperion Solutions and Siebel), SAS Institute, and certain
other privately held companies. In the past, we have competed with business
intelligence vendors that currently offer, or may develop, products with
functionalities that compete with our products, such as Business Objects, and to
a lesser degree, Cognos, and certain privately held companies. We also compete
against certain database and enterprise application vendors, which offer
products that typically operate specifically with these competitors’ proprietary
databases. Such competitors include IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, and SAP. With regard
to Data Quality, we compete against Business Objects, Trillium (which is part of
Harte-Hanks), and SAS Institute, as well as various other privately held
companies. Many of these competitors have longer operating histories,
substantially greater financial, technical, marketing, or other resources, or
greater name recognition than we do. Our competitors may be able to respond more
quickly than we can to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer
requirements. Our current and potential competitors may develop and market new
technologies that render our existing or future products obsolete, unmarketable,
or less competitive.
We
believe we currently compete on the basis of the breadth and depth of our
products’ functionality, as well as on the basis of price. We may have
difficulty competing on the basis of price in circumstances where our
competitors develop and market products
with
similar or superior functionality and pursue an aggressive pricing strategy or
bundle data integration technology at no cost to the customer or at deeply
discounted prices. These difficulties may increase as larger companies target
the data integration market. As a result, increased competition and bundling
strategies could seriously impede our ability to sell additional products and
services on terms favorable to us.
Our
current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions, consolidate
their operations, or establish cooperative relationships among themselves or
with other solution providers, thereby increasing their ability to provide a
broader suite of software products or solutions and more effectively address the
needs of our prospective customers. Such acquisitions could cause customers to
defer their purchasing decisions. Our current and potential competitors may
establish or strengthen cooperative relationships with our current or future
strategic partners, thereby limiting our ability to sell products through these
channels. If any of this were to occur, our ability to market and sell our
software products would be impaired. In addition, competitive pressures could
reduce our market share or require us to reduce our prices, either of which
could harm our business, results of operations, and financial
condition.
New product
introductions and product enhancements may impact market acceptance of
our
products and affect our results of operations.
For new
product introductions and existing product enhancements, changes can occur in
product packaging and pricing. After our acquisition of Similarity, we commenced
integration of Similarity’s data quality technology into the PowerCenter product
suite. Accordingly, in May 2006, we released the generally available version of
PowerCenter 8. We also announced in May 2006 the strategic roadmap for
Informatica On-Demand, a Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) offering, to enable
cross-enterprise data integration. As part of Phase One (offering connectivity
to leading SaaS vendors), we concurrently introduced Informatica PowerCenter
Connect for salesforce.com, which allows customers to integrate data managed by
salesforce.com with data managed by on-premise applications. Also, in November
2006 we announced general availability of new versions of Informatica Data
Quality and Informatica Data Explorer that deliver advanced data quality
capabilities. In March 2007 we launched Information On Demand Data Replicator, a
multi-tenant, on-demand service for cross-enterprise data integration. In
September 2007 we announced a new Informatica On Demand service: Informatica
Data Quality Assessment for salesforce.com which uses pre-defined rules to
identify missing, invalid, and duplicate data. In October 2007, we delivered the
generally available release of PowerCenter 8.5, PowerExchange 8.5, and
Informatica Data Quality 8.5, a version upgrade to our entire data integration
platform. New product introductions and/or enhancements such as these have
inherent risks, including but not limited to the following:
|
§
|
delay
in completion, launch, delivery, or
availability;
|
|
§
|
delay
in customer purchases in anticipation of new products not yet
released;
|
|
§
|
product
quality issues, including the possibility of
defects;
|
|
§
|
market
confusion based on changes to the product packaging and pricing as a
result of a new product release;
|
|
§
|
interoperability
issues with third-party
technologies;
|
|
§
|
loss
of existing customers that choose a competitor’s product instead of
upgrading or migrating to the new product;
and
|
|
§
|
loss
of maintenance revenues from existing customers that do not upgrade or
migrate.
|
Given the risks
associated with the introduction of new products, we cannot predict their impact
on our overall sales and revenues.
We have
experienced and could continue to experience fluctuations in our
quarterly operating
results, especially the amount of license revenues we recognize each
quarter,
and such fluctuations have caused and could cause our stock price to
decline.
Our
quarterly operating results have fluctuated in the past and are likely to do so
in the future. These fluctuations have caused our stock price to experience
declines in the past and could cause our stock price to significantly fluctuate
or experience declines in the future. One of the reasons why our operating
results have fluctuated is that our license revenues, which are primarily sold
on a perpetual license basis, are not predictable with any significant degree of
certainty and are vulnerable to short-term shifts in customer demand. Also, we
could experience customer order deferrals in anticipation of future new product
introductions or product
enhancements,
as well as a result of particular budgeting and purchase cycles of our
customers. By comparison, our short-term expenses are relatively fixed and based
in part on our expectations of future revenues.
Moreover,
our backlog of license orders at the end of a given fiscal period has tended to
vary. Historically, our backlog typically decreases from the prior quarter at
the end of the first and third quarters and increases from the prior quarter at
the end of the fourth quarter.
Furthermore,
we generally recognize a substantial portion of our license revenues in the last
month of each quarter and, sometimes, in the last few weeks of each quarter. As
a result, we cannot predict the adverse impact caused by cancellations or delays
in orders until the end of each quarter. Moreover, the likelihood of an adverse
impact may be greater if we experience increased average transaction sizes due
to a mix of relatively larger deals in our sales pipeline.
We began
expanding our international operations and we have opened new sales offices in
Brazil, China, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, South Korea, and Taiwan in 2005,
2006, and 2007. As a result of this international expansion, as well as the
increase in our direct sales headcount in the United States during 2005, 2006
and 2007, our sales and marketing expenses have increased during the past three
years. We expect these investments to increase our revenues, sales productivity,
and eventually our profitability. However, if we experience an increase in sales
personnel turnover, do not achieve expected increases in our sales pipeline,
experience a decline in our sales pipeline conversion ratio, or do not achieve
increases in productivity and efficiencies from our new sales personnel as they
gain more experience, then we may not achieve our expected increases in revenue,
sales productivity, and profitability. We have experienced some increases in
revenue and sales productivity in the United States in the past few years. While
in the past year, we have experienced increases in revenues and sales
productivity internationally, we have not yet achieved the same level of sales
productivity internationally as domestically.
Due to
the difficulty we experience in predicting our quarterly license revenues, we
believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results are not
necessarily a good indication of our future performance. Furthermore, our future
operating results could fail to meet the expectations of stock analysts and
investors. If this happens, the price of our common stock could
fall.
If we are unable
to accurately forecast revenues, we may fail to meet stock analysts’
and
investors’ expectations of our quarterly operating results, which could
cause our stock price
to decline.
We use a
“pipeline” system, a common industry practice, to forecast sales and trends in
our business. Our sales personnel monitor the status of all proposals, including
the date when they estimate that a customer will make a purchase decision and
the potential dollar amount of the sale. We aggregate these estimates
periodically in order to generate a sales pipeline. We assess the pipeline at
various points in time to look for trends in our business. While this pipeline
analysis may provide us with some guidance in business planning and budgeting,
these pipeline estimates are necessarily speculative and may not consistently
correlate to revenues in a particular quarter or over a longer period of time.
Additionally, because we have historically recognized a substantial portion of
our license revenues in the last month of each quarter and sometimes in the last
few weeks of each quarter, we may not be able to adjust our cost structure in a
timely manner in response to variations in the conversion of the sales pipeline
into license revenues. Any change in the conversion rate of the pipeline into
customer sales or in the pipeline itself could cause us to improperly budget for
future expenses that are in line with our expected future revenues, which would
adversely affect our operating margins and results of operations and could cause
the price of our common stock to decline.
We have
experienced reduced sales pipeline and pipeline conversion rates in prior
years,
which have adversely affected the growth of our company and the price of
our common
stock.
In the
past, we have experienced a reduced conversion rate of our overall license
pipeline, primarily as a result of general economic slowdowns, which caused the
amount of customer purchases to be reduced, deferred, or cancelled. As such, we
have experienced uncertainty regarding our sales pipeline and our ability to
convert potential sales of our products into revenue. We experienced an increase
in the size of our sales pipeline and some increases in our pipeline conversion
rate subsequent to 2005 as a result of our increased investment in sales
personnel and a gradually improving IT spending environment. However, the size
of our sales pipeline and our conversion rate are not consistent on a
quarter-to-quarter basis. Our conversion rate declined in the third quarter of
2006, increased in the fourth quarter of 2006 and throughout 2007, and declined
in the first quarter of 2008. If we are unable to continue to increase the size
of our sales pipeline and our pipeline conversion rate, our results of
operations could fail to meet the expectations of stock analysts and investors,
which could cause the price of our common stock to decline.
Our international
operations expose us to greater risks, including but not limited to those regarding
intellectual property, collections, exchange rate fluctuations, and regulations,
which could limit our future growth.
We have
significant operations outside the United States, including software development
centers in India, Ireland, Israel, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom,
sales offices in Europe, including France, Germany, the Netherlands,
Switzerland, and the United Kingdom, as well as in countries in Asia-Pacific,
and customer support centers in India, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom.
Additionally, since 2005 we have opened sales offices in Brazil, China, India,
Italy, Japan, Mexico, South Korea, and Taiwan, and we plan to continue to expand
our international operations in the Asia-Pacific market. Our international
operations face numerous risks. For example, to sell our products in certain
foreign countries, our products must be localized, that is, customized to meet
local user needs and to meet the requirements of certain markets, particularly
some in Asia, our product must be double-byte enabled. Developing
internationalized versions of our products for foreign markets is difficult,
requires us to incur additional expenses, and can take longer than we
anticipate. We currently have limited experience in internationalizing products
and in testing whether these internationalized products will be accepted in the
target countries. We cannot ensure that our internationalization efforts will be
successful.
In
addition, we have only a limited history of marketing, selling, and supporting
our products and services internationally. As a result, we must hire and train
experienced personnel to staff and manage our foreign operations. However, we
have experienced difficulties in recruiting, training, managing, and retaining
an international staff, in particular related to sales management and sales
personnel, which have affected our ability to increase sales productivity, and
related to turnover rates and wage inflation in India, which have increased
costs. We may continue to experience such difficulties in the
future.
We must
also be able to enter into strategic distributor relationships with companies in
certain international markets where we do not have a local presence. If we are
not able to maintain successful strategic distributor relationships
internationally or recruit additional companies to enter into strategic
distributor relationships, our future success in these international markets
could be limited.
Business
practices in the international markets that we serve may differ from those in
North America and may require us to include terms in our software license
agreements, such as extended payment or warranty terms, or performance
obligations that may require us to defer license revenues and recognize them
ratably over the warranty term or contractual period of the agreement. Although
historically we have infrequently entered into software license agreements that
require ratable recognition of license revenue, we may enter into software
license agreements in the future that may include non-standard terms related to
payment, maintenance rates, warranties, or performance obligations.
Our
software development centers in India, Ireland, Israel, the Netherlands, and the
United Kingdom also subject our business to certain risks,
including:
§
|
greater
difficulty in protecting our ownership rights to intellectual property
developed in foreign countries, which may have laws that materially differ
from those in the United States;
|
§
|
communication
delays between our main development center in Redwood City, California and
our development centers in India, Ireland, Israel, the Netherlands, and
the United Kingdom as a result of time zone differences, which may delay
the development, testing, or release of new
products;
|
§
|
greater
difficulty in relocating existing trained development personnel and
recruiting local experienced personnel, and the costs and expenses
associated with such activities;
and
|
§
|
increased
expenses incurred in establishing and maintaining office space and
equipment for the development
centers.
|
Additionally,
our international operations as a whole are subject to a number of risks,
including the following:
§
|
greater
risk of uncollectible accounts and longer collection
cycles;
|
§
|
higher
risk of unexpected changes in regulatory practices, tariffs, and tax laws
and treaties;
|
§
|
greater
risk of a failure of our foreign employees to comply with both U.S. and
foreign laws, including antitrust regulations, the Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act, and any trade regulations ensuring fair trade
practices;
|
§
|
potential
conflicts with our established distributors in countries in which we elect
to establish a direct sales
presence;
|
§
|
our
limited experience in establishing a sales and marketing presence and the
appropriate internal systems, processes, and controls in Asia-Pacific,
especially China, Singapore, South Korea, and
Taiwan;
|
§
|
fluctuations
in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies in
markets where we do business, if we continue to not engage in hedging
activities; and
|
§
|
general
economic and political conditions in these foreign
markets.
|
For
example, an increase in international sales would expose us to foreign currency
fluctuations where an unfavorable change in the exchange rate of foreign
currencies against the U.S. dollar would result in lower revenues when
translated into U.S. dollars although operating expenditures would be lower as
well. Historically the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on
revenue and operating expenses has been immaterial. However, as our
international operations grow, the effect of changes in the foreign currency
exchange rates could be greater in terms of revenue and operating expenses. The
potential effect can be magnified in those areas where we have development
centers without commensurate revenue generation, such as Israel and India, to
offset the impact of currency changes on operating expenses. These factors and
other factors could harm our ability to gain future international revenues and,
consequently, materially impact our business, results of operations, and
financial condition. The expansion of our existing international operations and
entry into additional international markets will require significant management
attention and financial resources. Our failure to manage our international
operations and the associated risks effectively could limit the future growth of
our business.
If adverse
changes in the U.S. or global economies negatively affect sales of our
products
and services, our operating results would be harmed, and the price of our
common
stock could decline.
As our
business has grown, we have become increasingly subject to the risks arising
from adverse changes in the domestic and global economies. We have experienced
the adverse effect of economic slowdowns in the past, which resulted in a
significant reduction in capital spending by our customers, as well as longer
sales cycles, and the deferral or delay of purchases of our
products.
Recent
turmoil in the U.S. lending markets appears to be having an impact on the
overall U.S. economy and thus the buying patterns of our customers and
prospects. This has affected the financial services sector which is our largest
vertical market. While our sales to the financial services sector have continued
to grow on a worldwide basis, we have recently experienced greater growth
internationally than domestically. If the U.S. economy does not continue to grow
or stabilize, our results of operations could be adversely affected and we could
fail to meet the expectations of stock analysts and investors, which could cause
the price of our common stock to decline.
Additionally,
adverse changes in the U.S. economy could negatively affect our international
markets. Further, if the economies of Europe and Asia-Pacific do not continue to
grow or if there is an escalation in regional or global conflicts, we may fall
short of our revenue expectations. Any economic slowdown could adversely affect
our pipeline conversion rate, which could impact our ability to meet our revenue
expectations. Although we are investing in Asia-Pacific, there are significant
risks with overseas investments and our growth prospects in Asia-Pacific are
uncertain. In addition, we could experience delays in the payment obligations of
our worldwide reseller customers if they experience weakness in the end-user
market, which would increase our credit risk exposure and harm our financial
condition.
We rely on our
relationships with our strategic partners. If we do not maintain and
strengthen
these relationships, our ability to generate revenue and control expenses
could be
adversely affected, which could cause a decline in the price of our
common stock.
We
believe that our ability to increase the sales of our products depends in part
upon maintaining and strengthening relationships with our current strategic
partners and any future strategic partners. In addition to our direct sales
force, we rely on established relationships with a variety of strategic
partners, such as systems integrators, resellers, and distributors, for
marketing, licensing, implementing, and supporting our products in the United
States and internationally. We also rely on relationships with strategic
technology partners, such as enterprise application providers, database vendors,
data quality vendors, and enterprise integrator vendors, for the promotion and
implementation of our products. We have become a global OEM partner with Cognos
(acquired by IBM), FAST (which recently received an acquisition offer from
Microsoft), SAP and Hyperion Solutions (acquired by Oracle) and have partnered
with salesforce.com. We have also expanded and extended our OEM relationship
with Oracle.
Our
strategic partners offer products from several different companies, including,
in some cases, products that compete with our products. We have limited control,
if any, as to whether these strategic partners devote adequate resources to
promoting, selling, and implementing our products as compared to our
competitors’ products.
Although
our strategic partnership with IBM’s Business Consulting Services group has been
successful in the past, IBM’s acquisition of Ascential Software, DataMirror and
Cognos, has made it critical that we strengthen our relationships with our other
strategic partners. Business Objects’ acquisition of FirstLogic, a former
strategic partner, and SAP’s recent acquisition of Business Objects may also
make such strengthening with other strategic partners more critical. We cannot
guarantee that we will be able to strengthen our relationships with our
strategic partners or that such relationships will be successful in generating
additional revenue.
We may
not be able to maintain our strategic partnerships or attract sufficient
additional strategic partners who have the ability to market our products
effectively, are qualified to provide timely and cost-effective customer support
and service, or have the technical expertise and personnel resources necessary
to implement our products for our customers. In particular, if our strategic
partners do not devote sufficient resources to implement our products, we may
incur substantial additional costs associated with hiring and training
additional qualified technical personnel to implement solutions for our
customers in a timely manner. Furthermore, our relationships with our strategic
partners may not generate enough revenue to offset the significant resources
used to develop these relationships. If we are unable to leverage the strength
of our strategic partnerships to generate additional revenues, our revenues and
the price of our common stock could decline.
Although we
believe we currently have adequate internal control over financial reporting, we are
required to assess our internal control over financial reporting on an annual basis,
and any future adverse results from such assessment could result in a loss of
investor confidence in our financial reports and have an adverse effect
on our stock
price.
Pursuant
to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX 404”), and the rules and
regulations promulgated by the SEC to implement SOX 404, we are required to
furnish an annual report in our Form 10-K regarding the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting. The report’s assessment of our
internal control over financial reporting as of the end of our fiscal year must
include disclosure of any material weaknesses in our internal control over
financial reporting identified by management.
Management’s
assessment of internal control over financial reporting requires management to
make subjective judgments and, because this requirement to provide a management
report has only been in effect since 2004, some of our judgments will be in
areas that may be open to interpretation. Therefore, we may have difficulties in
assessing the effectiveness of our internal controls, and our auditors, who are
required to issue an attestation report along with our management report, may
not agree with management’s assessments.
During
the past few years, our organizational structure has increased in complexity.
For example, we have expanded our presence in the Asia-Pacific region, where
business practices can differ from those in other regions of the world and can
create internal controls risks. To address potential risks, we recognize revenue
on transactions derived in this region (except for direct sales in Japan and
Australia) only when the cash has been received and all other revenue
recognition criteria have been met. We also have provided business practices
training to our sales teams. While our organizational structure has increased in
complexity as a result of our international expansion, our capital structure has
also increased in complexity as a result of the issuance of the Convertible
Notes in March 2006. Finally, our reorganization of various foreign entities in
April 2006, which required a change in some of our internal controls over
financial reporting, and the assessment of the impact for our adoption of
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes (“FIN 48”), further add to the reporting complexity and increase
the potential risks of our ability to maintain the effectiveness of our internal
controls. Overall, the combination of our increased complexity and the
ever-increasing regulatory complexity make it more critical for us to attract
and retain qualified and technically competent finance employees.
Although
we currently believe our internal control over financial reporting is effective,
the effectiveness of our internal controls in future periods is subject to the
risk that our controls may become inadequate.
If we are
unable to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective
in any future period (or if our auditors are unable to provide an attestation
report regarding the effectiveness of our internal controls, or qualify such
report or fail to provide such report in a timely manner), we could lose
investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports,
which would have an adverse effect on our stock price.
As a result of
our products’ lengthy sales cycles, our expected revenues are susceptible to
fluctuations, which could cause us to fail to meet stock analysts’ and
investors’
expectations, resulting in a decline in the price of our common
stock.
Due to
the expense, broad functionality, and company-wide deployment of our products,
our customers’ decisions to purchase our products typically require the approval
of their executive decision makers. In addition, we frequently must educate our
potential customers about the full benefits of our products, which also can
require significant time. This trend toward greater customer executive level
involvement and customer education is likely to increase as we expand our market
focus to broader data integration initiatives. Further, our sales cycle may
lengthen as we continue to focus our sales efforts on large corporations. As a
result of these factors, the length of time from our initial contact with a
customer to the customer’s decision to purchase our products typically ranges
from three to nine months. We are subject to a number of significant risks as a
result of our lengthy sales cycle, including:
§
|
our
customers’ budgetary constraints and internal acceptance review
procedures;
|
§
|
the
timing of our customers’ budget
cycles;
|
§
|
the
seasonality of technology purchases, which historically has resulted in
stronger sales of our products in the fourth quarter of the year,
especially when compared to lighter sales in the first quarter of the
year;
|
§
|
our
customers’ concerns about the introduction of our products or new products
from our competitors; or
|
§
|
potential
downturns in general economic or political conditions that could occur
during the sales cycle.
|
If our
sales cycles lengthen unexpectedly, they could adversely affect the timing of
our revenues or increase costs, which may independently cause fluctuations in
our revenues and results of operations. Finally, if we are unsuccessful in
closing sales of our products after spending significant funds and management
resources, our operating margins and results of operations could be adversely
impacted, and the price of our common stock could decline.
If our products
are unable to interoperate with hardware and software technologies developed and
maintained by third parties that are not within our control, our ability to
develop and sell our products to our customers could be adversely affected, which
would result in harm to our business and operating results.
Our
products are designed to interoperate with and provide access to a wide range of
third-party developed and maintained hardware and software technologies, which
are used by our customers. The future design and development plans of the third
parties that maintain these technologies are not within our control and may not
be in line with our future product development plans. We may also rely on such
third parties, particularly certain third-party developers of database and
application software products, to provide us with access to these technologies
so that we can properly test and develop our products to interoperate with the
third-party technologies. These third parties may in the future refuse or
otherwise be unable to provide us with the necessary access to their
technologies. In addition, these third parties may decide to design or develop
their technologies in a manner that would not be interoperable with our own. The
continued consolidation in the enterprise software market may heighten these
risks. Furthermore, our expanding product line makes maintaining
interoperability more difficult as various products may have different levels of
interoperability and compatibility, which may change from version to version. If
any of the situations described above were to occur, we would not be able to
continue to market our products as interoperable with such third-party hardware
and software, which could adversely affect our ability to successfully sell our
products to our customers.
The loss of our
key personnel, an increase in our sales force personnel turnover rate, or the
inability to attract and retain additional personnel could adversely
affect our
ability to grow our company successfully and may negatively impact our
results of
operations.
We
believe our success depends upon our ability to attract and retain highly
skilled personnel and key members of our management team. We continue to
experience changes in members of our senior management team. As new senior
personnel join our company and become familiar with our business strategy and
systems, their integration could result in some disruption to our ongoing
operations.
In the
past, we also experienced an increased level of turnover in our direct sales
force. Such increase in the turnover rate impacted our ability to generate
license revenues. Although we have hired replacements in our sales force and saw
the pace of the turnover decrease in 2005 and 2006, we typically experience
lower productivity from newly hired sales personnel for a period of 6 to 12
months. Turnover levels increased slightly in 2007, and improved in the first
quarter of 2008. If we are unable to effectively train such new personnel, or if
we experience an increase in the level of sales force turnover, our ability to
generate license revenues may be negatively impacted.
In
addition, we have experienced an increased level of turnover in other areas of
the business. Since the market has become increasingly competitive and the
hiring is more difficult and costly, our personnel have become more attractive
to other companies. Our plan for continued growth requires us to add personnel
to meet our growth objectives and places increased importance on our ability to
attract, train, and retain new personnel. If we are unable to effectively
attract and train new personnel, or if we continue to experience an increase in
the level of turnover, our results of operations may be negatively
impacted.
We
currently do not have any key-man life insurance relating to our key personnel,
and the employment of the key personnel in the United States is at will and not
subject to employment contracts. We have relied on our ability to grant stock
options as one mechanism for recruiting and retaining highly skilled talent.
Accounting regulations requiring the expensing of stock options may impair our
future ability to provide these incentives without incurring significant
compensation costs. There can be no assurance that we will continue to
successfully attract and retain key personnel.
If the market in
which we sell our products and services does not grow as we anticipate, we
may not be able to increase our revenues at an acceptable rate of growth, and the
price of our common stock could decline.
The
market for software products that enable more effective business decision making
by helping companies aggregate and utilize data stored throughout an
organization continues to change. Substantially all of our historical revenues
have been attributable to the sales of products and services in the data
warehousing market. While we believe that this market is still growing, we
expect most of our growth to come from the emerging market for broader data
integration, which includes migration, data consolidation, data synchronization,
and single-view projects. The use of packaged software solutions to address the
needs of the broader data integration market is relatively new and is still
emerging. Additionally, we expect growth in the areas of data quality and
on-demand (SaaS) offerings. Our potential customers may:
§
|
not
fully value the benefits of using our
products;
|
§
|
not
achieve favorable results using our
products;
|
§
|
experience
technical difficulties in implementing our products;
or
|
§
|
use
alternative methods to solve the problems addressed by our
products.
|
If this
market does not grow as we anticipate, we would not be able to sell as much of
our software products and services as we currently expect, which could result in
a decline in the price of our common stock.
We rely on the
sale of a limited number of products, and if these products do not achieve broad
market acceptance, our revenues would be adversely affected.
To date,
substantially all of our revenues have been derived from our data integration
products such as PowerCenter and PowerExchange and related services. We expect
sales of our data integration software and related services to comprise
substantially all of our revenues for the foreseeable future. If any of our
products does not achieve market acceptance, our revenues and stock price could
decrease. In particular, with the completion of our Similarity acquisition and
our Itemfield acquisition, we intend to further integrate Similarity’s data
quality technology and Itemfield’s data transformation technologies into our
PowerCenter data integration product suite. Market acceptance for our current
products, as well as our PowerCenter product with Similarity’s data quality
technology and Itemfield’s data transformation technologies, could be affected
if, among other things, competition substantially increases in the enterprise
data integration market or transactional applications suppliers integrate their
products to such a degree that the utility of the data integration functionality
that our products provide is minimized or rendered unnecessary.
We may not be
able to successfully manage the growth of our business if we are unable
to improve
our internal systems, processes, and controls.
We need
to continue to improve our internal systems, processes, and controls to
effectively (1) manage our operations and growth, including our international
growth into new geographies, particularly the Asia-Pacific market, and (2)
realign resources from time to time to more efficiently address market or
product requirements. To the extent any realignment requires changes to our
internal systems, processes, and controls or organizational structure, we could
experience disruption in customer relationships, increases in cost, and
increased employee turnover. In addition, we may not be able to successfully
implement improvements to these systems, processes, and controls in an efficient
or timely manner, and we may discover deficiencies in existing systems,
processes, and
controls.
We have licensed technology from third parties to help us accomplish this
objective. The support services available for such third-party technology may be
negatively affected by mergers and consolidation in the software industry, and
support services for such technology may not be available to us in the future.
We may experience difficulties in managing improvements to our systems,
processes, and controls or in connection with third-party software, which could
disrupt existing customer relationships, causing us to lose customers, limit us
to smaller deployments of our products, or increase our technical support
costs.
The price of our
common stock fluctuates as a result of factors other than our operating
results, such as the actions of our competitors and securities analysts,
as well as
developments in our industry and changes in accounting
rules.
The
market price for our common stock has experienced significant fluctuations and
may continue to fluctuate significantly. The market price for our common stock
may be affected by a number of factors other than our operating results,
including:
§
|
the
announcement of new products or product enhancements by our
competitors;
|
§
|
quarterly
variations in our competitors’ results of
operations;
|
§
|
changes
in earnings estimates and recommendations by securities
analysts;
|
§
|
developments
in our industry; and
|
§
|
changes
in accounting rules.
|
After
periods of volatility in the market price of a particular company’s securities,
securities class action litigation has often been brought against that
particular company. We and certain of our former officers have been named as
defendants in a purported class action complaint, which was filed on behalf of
certain persons who purchased our common stock between April 29, 1999 and
December 6, 2000. Such actions could cause the price of our common stock to
decline.
The recognition
of share-based payments for employee stock option and employee stock
purchase
plans adversely impacts our results of operations.
The
adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 123(R),
Share-Based Payment,
has a significant adverse impact on our consolidated results of
operations as it increases our operating expenses and reduces our operating
income, net income, and earnings per share, all of which could result in a
decline in the price of our common stock in the future. The effect of
share-based payment on our operating income, net income, and earnings per share
is not predictable as the underlying assumptions, including volatility, interest
rate, and expected life, of the Black-Scholes-Merton model could vary over time.
Further, our forfeiture rate might vary from quarter to quarter due to change in
employee turnover.
We rely on a
number of different distribution channels to sell and market our products. Any
conflicts that we may experience within these various distribution channels could
result in confusion for our customers and a decrease in revenue and operating
margins.
We have a
number of relationships with resellers, systems integrators, and distributors
that assist us in obtaining broad market coverage for our products and services.
Although our discount policies, sales commission structure, and reseller
licensing programs are intended to support each distribution channel with a
minimum level of channel conflicts, we may not be able to minimize these channel
conflicts in the future. Any channel conflicts that we may experience could
result in confusion for our customers and a decrease in revenue and operating
margins.
Any significant
defect in our products could cause us to lose revenue and expose us to product
liability claims.
The
software products we offer are inherently complex and, despite extensive testing
and quality control, have in the past and may in the future contain errors or
defects, especially when first introduced. These defects and errors could cause
damage to our reputation, loss of revenue, product returns, order cancellations,
or lack of market acceptance of our products. We have in the past and may in the
future need to issue corrective releases of our software products to fix these
defects or errors, which could require us to allocate significant customer
support resources to address these problems.
Our license agreements
with our customers typically contain provisions designed to limit our exposure
to potential product liability claims. However, the limitation of liability
provisions contained in our license agreements may not be effective as a result
of existing or future national, federal, state, or local laws or ordinances or
unfavorable judicial decisions. Although we have not experienced any product
liability claims to date, the sale and support of our products entail the risk
of such claims, which could be substantial in light of the use of our products
in enterprise-wide environments. In addition, our insurance against product
liability may not be adequate to cover a potential claim.
Our effective tax
rate is difficult to project. Changes in such tax rate and/or results of tax
examinations could adversely affect our operating results.
The
process of determining our anticipated tax liabilities involves many
calculations and estimates, which are inherently complex and make the ultimate
tax obligation determination uncertain. As part of the process of preparing our
consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes
in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate prior to the completion and
filing of tax returns for such periods. This process requires estimating both
our geographic mix of income and our current tax exposures in each jurisdiction
where we operate. These estimates involve complex issues, require extended
periods of time to resolve, and require us to make judgments, such as
anticipating the positions that we will take on tax returns prior to our
actually preparing the returns and the outcomes of audits with tax authorities.
We also must determine the need to record deferred tax liabilities and the
recoverability of deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is established to
the extent recovery of deferred tax assets is not likely based on our estimation
of future taxable income and other factors in each jurisdiction.
Furthermore,
our overall effective income tax rate may be affected by various factors in our
business, including acquisitions, changes in our legal structure, changes in the
geographic mix of income and expenses, changes in valuation allowances, changes
in tax laws and applicable accounting rules including FIN 48 and SFAS 123(R),
and variations in the estimated and actual level of annual pre-tax
income.
We may
receive an assessment related to the audit of our U.S. income tax returns or
from other domestic and foreign tax authorities that exceeds amounts provided
for by us. In the event we are unsuccessful in reducing the amount of such
assessment, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be
adversely affected. Specifically, if additional taxes and/or penalties are
assessed as a result of these audits, there could be a material effect on our
income tax provision, operating expenses, and net income in the period or
periods for which that determination is made.
If we are unable
to successfully respond to technological advances and evolving industry
standards, we could experience a reduction in our future product sales,
which would
cause our revenues to decline.
The
market for our products is characterized by continuing technological
development, evolving industry standards, changing customer needs, and frequent
new product introductions and enhancements. The introduction of products by our
direct competitors or others embodying new technologies, the emergence of new
industry standards, or changes in customer requirements could render our
existing products obsolete, unmarketable, or less competitive. In particular, an
industry-wide adoption of uniform open standards across heterogeneous
applications could minimize the importance of the integration functionality of
our products and materially adversely affect the competitiveness and market
acceptance of our products. Our success depends upon our ability to enhance
existing products, to respond to changing customer requirements, and to develop
and introduce in a timely manner new products that keep pace with technological
and competitive developments and emerging industry standards. We have in the
past experienced delays in releasing new products and product enhancements and
may experience similar delays in the future. As a result, in the past, some of
our customers deferred purchasing our products until the next upgrade was
released. Future delays or problems in the installation or implementation of our
new releases may cause customers to forgo purchases of our products and purchase
those of our competitors instead. Additionally, even if we are able to develop
new products and product enhancements, we cannot ensure that they will achieve
market acceptance.
We recognize
revenue from specific customers at the time we receive payment for our
products,
and if these customers do not make timely payment, our revenues could
decrease.
Based on
limited credit history, we recognize revenue from direct end users, resellers,
distributors, and OEMs that have not been deemed creditworthy when we receive
payment for our products and when all other criteria for revenue recognition
have been met, rather than at the time of sale. As our business grows, if these
customers and partners do not make timely payment for our products, our revenues
could decrease. If our revenues decrease, the price of our common stock may
fall.
The conversion
provisions of our convertible senior notes and the level of debt represented by
such notes will dilute the ownership interests of stockholders, could
adversely
affect our liquidity, and could impede our ability to raise additional
capital.
In March
2006, we issued $230 million aggregate principal amount of Notes due 2026. The
note holders can convert the Notes into shares of our common stock at any time
before the Notes mature or we redeem or repurchase them. Upon certain dates
(March 15, 2011, March 15, 2016, and March 15, 2021) or the occurrence of
certain events including a change in control, the note holders can require us to
repurchase some or all of the Notes. Upon any conversion of the Notes, our basic
earnings per share would be expected to decrease because such underlying shares
would be included in the basic earnings per share calculation. Given that events
constituting a “change in control” can trigger such repurchase obligations, the
existence of such repurchase obligations may delay or discourage a merger,
acquisition, or other consolidation. Our ability to meet our repurchase or
repayment obligations of the Notes will depend upon our future performance,
which is subject to economic, competitive, financial, and other factors
affecting our industry and operations, some of which are beyond our control. If
we are unable to meet the obligations out of cash flows from operations or other
available funds, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private
debt or equity financings. We may not be able to borrow money or sell more of
our equity securities to meet our cash needs. Even if we are able to do so, it
may not be on terms that are favorable or reasonable to us.
If we are not
able to adequately protect our proprietary rights, third parties could
develop and
market products that are equivalent to our own, which would harm our
sales
efforts.
Our
success depends upon our proprietary technology. We believe that our product
development, product enhancements, name recognition, and the technological and
innovative skills of our personnel are essential to establishing and maintaining
a technology leadership position. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright,
trademark, and trade secret rights, confidentiality procedures, and licensing
arrangements to establish and protect our proprietary rights.
However,
these legal rights and contractual agreements may provide only limited
protection. Our pending patent applications may not be allowed or our
competitors may successfully challenge the validity or scope of any of our
issued patents or any future issued patents. Our patents alone may not provide
us with any significant competitive advantage, and third parties may develop
technologies that are similar or superior to our technology or design around our
patents. Third parties could copy or otherwise obtain and use our products or
technology without authorization or develop similar technology independently. We
cannot easily monitor any unauthorized use of our products, and, although we are
unable to determine the extent to which piracy of our software products exists,
software piracy is a prevalent problem in our industry in general.
The risk
of not adequately protecting our proprietary technology and our exposure to
competitive pressures may be increased if a competitor should resort to unlawful
means in competing against us. For example, in July 2003, we settled a complaint
against Ascential Software Corporation in which a number of former Informatica
employees recruited and hired by Ascential misappropriated our trade secrets,
including sensitive product and marketing information and detailed sales
information regarding existing and potential customers, and unlawfully used that
information to benefit Ascential in gaining a competitive advantage against us.
Although we were ultimately successful in this lawsuit, there are no assurances
that we will be successful in protecting our proprietary technology from
competitors in the future.
We have
entered into agreements with many of our customers and partners that require us
to place the source code of our products into escrow. Such agreements generally
provide that such parties will have a limited, non-exclusive right to use such
code if: (1) there is a bankruptcy proceeding by or against us; (2) we cease to
do business; or (3) we fail to meet our support obligations. Although our
agreements with these third parties limit the scope of rights to use of the
source code, we may be unable to effectively control such third parties’
actions.
Furthermore,
effective protection of intellectual property rights is unavailable or limited
in various foreign countries. The protection of our proprietary rights may be
inadequate and our competitors could independently develop similar technology,
duplicate our products, or design around any patents or other intellectual
property rights we hold.
We may be
forced to initiate litigation to protect our proprietary rights. For example, on
July 15, 2002, we filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Acta Technology,
Inc., now known as Business Objects Data Integration, Inc. (“BODI”). See the
subsection Litigation
in Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies,
of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I,
Item 1 of this Report. Litigating claims related to the enforcement of
proprietary rights is very expensive and can be burdensome in terms of
management time and resources, which could adversely affect our business and
operating results. Although we
received a favorable verdict in the trial against BODI in April 2007, an appeal
by BODI is expected so the expense and burden to the company is expected to
continue.
We may face
intellectual property infringement claims that could be costly to defend
and result
in our loss of significant rights.
As is
common in the software industry, we have received and may continue from time to
time to receive notices from third parties claiming infringement by our products
of third-party patent and other proprietary rights. As the number of software
products in our target markets increases and the functionality of these products
further overlaps, we may become increasingly subject to claims by a third party
that our technology infringes such party’s proprietary rights. Any claims, with
or without merit, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, cause
product shipment delays, or require us to enter into royalty or licensing
agreements, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial
condition, and operating results. Although we do not believe that we are
currently infringing any proprietary rights of others, legal action claiming
patent infringement could be commenced against us, and we may not prevail in
such litigation given the complex technical issues and inherent uncertainties in
patent litigation. The potential effects on our business that may result from a
third-party infringement claim include the following:
§
|
we
may be forced to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, which may not
be available on terms favorable to us, or at
all;
|
§
|
we
may be required to indemnify our customers or obtain replacement products
or functionality for our customers;
|
§
|
we
may be forced to significantly increase our development efforts and
resources to redesign our products as a result of these claims;
and
|
§
|
we
may be forced to discontinue the sale of some or all of our
products.
|
We may engage in
future acquisitions or investments that could dilute our existing stockholders or
could cause us to incur contingent liabilities, debt, or significant
expense or
could be difficult to integrate in terms of the acquired entity’s products,
personnel and operations.
From time
to time, in the ordinary course of business, we may evaluate potential
acquisitions of, or investments in, related businesses, products, or
technologies. For example, in January 2006, we acquired Similarity, and in
December 2006, we acquired Itemfield. In addition, in April 2008 we entered into
a definitive agreement to acquire Identity Systems, Inc. Future acquisitions and
investments like these could result in the issuance of dilutive equity
securities, the incurrence of debt or contingent liabilities, or the payment of
cash to purchase equity securities from third parties. There can be no assurance
that any strategic acquisition or investment will succeed. Risks include
difficulties in the integration of the products, personnel, and operations of
the acquired entity, disruption of the ongoing business, potential management
distraction from the ongoing business, difficulties in the retention of key
partner alliances, potential product liability issues related to the acquired
products, and potential decline in the fair value of investments.
We have
substantial real estate lease commitments that are currently subleased to
third
parties, and if subleases for this space are terminated or cancelled, our
operating
results and financial condition could be adversely affected.
We have
substantial real estate lease commitments in the United States and
internationally. However, we do not occupy many of these leases. Currently, we
have substantially subleased these unoccupied properties to third parties. The
terms of most of these sublease agreements account for only a portion of the
period of our master leases and contain rights of the subtenant to extend the
term of the sublease. To the extent that (1) our subtenants do not renew their
subleases at the end of the initial term and we are unable to enter into new
subleases with other parties at comparable rates, or (2) our subtenants are
unable to pay the sublease rent amounts in a timely manner, our cash flow would
be negatively impacted and our operating results and financial condition could
be adversely affected. See Note 7. Facilities Restructuring Charges,
of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1
of this Report.
Delaware law and
our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could deter
potential acquisition bids, which may adversely affect the market price
of our
common stock, discourage merger offers, and prevent changes in our
management or Board of
Directors.
Our basic
corporate documents and Delaware law contain provisions that might discourage,
delay, or prevent a change in the control of Informatica or a change in our
management. Our bylaws provide that we have a classified Board of Directors,
with each class of directors subject to re-election every three years. This
classified Board has the effect of making it more difficult for
third
parties
to elect their representatives on our Board of Directors and gain control of
Informatica. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it
more difficult for our stockholders to elect directors and take other corporate
actions. The existence of these provisions could limit the price that investors
might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common
stock.
In
addition, we have adopted a stockholder rights plan. Under the plan, we issued a
dividend of one right for each outstanding share of common stock to stockholders
of record as of November 12, 2001, and such rights will become exercisable only
upon the occurrence of certain events. Because the rights may substantially
dilute the stock ownership of a person or group attempting to take us over
without the approval of our Board of Directors, the plan could make it more
difficult for a third party to acquire us or a significant percentage of our
outstanding capital stock without first negotiating with our Board of Directors
regarding such acquisition.
Business
interruptions could adversely affect our business.
Our
operations are vulnerable to interruption by fire, earthquake, power loss,
telecommunications or network failure, and other events beyond our control. We
have prepared a detailed disaster recovery plan and will continue to expand the
scope over time. Some of our facilities in Asia experienced disruption as a
result of the December 2006 earthquake off the coast of Taiwan, which caused a
major fiber outage throughout the surrounding regions. The outage affected
network connectivity, which has been restored to acceptable levels. Such
disruption can negatively affect our operations given necessary interaction
among our international facilities. In the event such an earthquake reoccurs, it
could again disrupt the operations of our affected facilities. In addition, we
do not carry sufficient business interruption insurance to compensate us for
losses that may occur, and any losses or damages incurred by us could have a
material adverse effect on our business.
Repurchases
of Equity Securities
In April
2007, our Board of Directors authorized and announced a stock repurchase program
for up to $50 million of our common stock. In April 2008, our Board of Directors
authorized a stock repurchase program for up to an additional $75 million of our
common stock. Purchases can be made from time to time in the open market and
will be funded from available working capital. The purpose of our stock
repurchase program is, among other things, to help offset the dilution caused by
the issuance of stock under our employee stock option plans. The number of
shares acquired and the timing of the repurchases are based on several factors,
including general market conditions and the trading price of our common stock.
These repurchased shares will be retired and reclassified as authorized and
unissued shares of common stock.
