Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

1.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Manhattan Associates, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” or “Manhattan”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, with the instructions to Form 10-Q and with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position at March 31, 2019, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other interim period. These statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in Fiscal Year 2019

Leases

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases, which establishes new Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 842 (ASC 842), to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Under the new guidance, a lessee is required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with previous GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily depends on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike previous GAAP which required only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet, the new standard requires both types of leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. ASC 842 also requires disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements, providing additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements.

ASC 842 was previously required to be adopted using the modified retrospective approach.  However, in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which allowed for retrospective application with the recognition of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.  Under this option, entities do not need to apply ASC 842 (along with its disclosure requirements) to the comparative prior periods presented.

We adopted ASC 842 in the first quarter of 2019.  Accordingly, most of our operating leases (primarily for office space) are recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets on our balance sheet. We elected to adopt certain of the optional practical expedients, including the package of practical expedients, which, among other things, gives us the option to not reassess: 1) whether expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; 2) the lease classification for expired or existing leases; and 3) initial direct costs for existing leases. We elected the optional transition method that allows for a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the adoption date coupled with the option to not restate prior periods. We also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components, which allows us to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.  We did not elect the hindsight practical expedient in our determination of the lease term for our existing leases.

Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately $28.5 million and $31.0 million as of January 1, 2019, respectively. The adoption had no impact on retained earnings, the Consolidated Statements of Income, or the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when we transfer control of the promised products or services to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services. We derive our revenue from software licenses, cloud subscriptions, customer support services and software enhancements (“maintenance”), implementation and training services, and sales of hardware. We exclude sales and usage-based taxes from revenue.

Nature of Products and Services

Our perpetual software licenses provide the customer with a right to use the software as it exists at the time of purchase. We recognize revenue for distinct software licenses once the license period has begun and we have made the software available to the customer.

Cloud subscriptions includes software as a service (“SaaS”) and arrangements which provide customers with the right to use our software within a cloud-based environment that we provide and manage where the customer does not have the right to take possession of the software without significant penalty. SaaS and hosting revenues are recognized ratably over the contract period. For contracts that include a perpetual license and hosting services, we generally consider the arrangement as an overall service, recognized over the initial hosting term.  The software license fee typically due at the outset of the arrangement is not payable again if the customer renews the hosting services, so that the customer’s option to renew the hosting services is a material right, the revenue from which, if the option is exercised, we will recognize over the applicable renewal period.

Our perpetual software licenses are typically sold with maintenance under which we provide a comprehensive 24 hours per day, 365 days per year program that provides customers with software upgrades, when and if available, which include additional or improved functionality and technological advances incorporating emerging supply chain and industry initiatives. Revenue related to maintenance is generally paid in advance and recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically twelve months.

Our services revenue consists of fees generated from implementation and training services, including reimbursements of out-pocket expenses in connection with our services. Services include system planning, design, configuration, testing, and other software implementation support, and are typically optional and distinct from our software. Fees for our services are separately priced and are generally billed on an hourly basis, and revenue is recognized over time as the services are performed. In certain situations, we render professional services under agreements based upon a fixed fee for portions of or all of the engagement. Revenue related to fixed-fee-based services contracts is recognized over time based on the proportion performed. The total amount of expense reimbursement included in services revenue was $3.6 million and $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

As part of a complete solution, our customers periodically purchase hardware products developed and manufactured by third parties from us for use with the software licenses purchased from us. These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, radio frequency identification (RFID) chip readers, bar code printers and scanners, and other peripherals. As we do not physically control the hardware that we sell, we are acting as an agent in the transaction and recognize our hardware revenue net of related cost. We recognize hardware revenue when control is transferred to the customer upon shipment.  

Significant Judgements

Our contracts with customers typically contain promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Judgement is required to determine whether each product and service is considered to be a distinct performance obligation that should be accounted for separately under the contract. We allocate the transaction price to the distinct performance obligations based on relative standalone selling price (“SSP”). We estimate SSP based on the prices charged to customers, or by using information such as market conditions and other observable inputs. However, the selling price of our software licenses is highly variable. Thus, we estimate SSP for software licenses using the residual approach, determined based on total transaction price less the SSP of other goods and services promised in the contract.

Contract Balances

Timing of invoicing to customers may differ from timing of revenue recognition. Payment terms for our software licenses vary. We have an established history of collecting under the terms of our software license contracts without providing refunds or concessions to our customers. Cloud subscriptions and maintenance are typically billed annually in advance. Services are typically billed monthly as performed. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, we have determined that our contracts generally do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of our invoicing terms

 

9


 

is to provide customers with predictable ways to purchase our software and services, not to provide or receive financing. Additionally, we are applying the practical expedient to exclude from consideration any contracts with payment terms of one year or less as we rarely offer terms extending beyond one year.  

Deferred revenue mainly represents amounts collected prior to having completed performance of maintenance, cloud subscriptions and professional services. $36.6 million of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2018 was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

No revenue was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019 from performance obligations that were satisfied in prior periods.

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of March 31, 2019, approximately $100.5 million of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations for cloud subscriptions and maintenance contracts with a non-cancelable term greater than 1 year (including deferred revenue as well as amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods).  We expect to recognize revenue on approximately 50% of these remaining performance obligations over the next 24 months with the balance recognized thereafter.  We have elected not to provide disclosures regarding remaining performance obligations for contracts with a term of 1 year or less.

Returns and Allowances

We have not experienced significant returns or warranty claims to date and, as a result, have not recorded a provision for the cost of returns and product warranty claims.

We record an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the historical experience of write-offs and a detailed assessment of accounts receivable. Additions to the allowance for doubtful accounts generally represent a sales allowance on services revenue, which are recorded to operations as a reduction to services revenue. The total amount charged to operations was $0.9 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. In estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider the age of the accounts receivable, our historical write-offs, and the creditworthiness of the customer, among other factors. Should any of these factors change, the estimates made by us will also change accordingly, which could affect the level of our future allowances. Uncollectible accounts are written off when it is determined that the specific balance is not collectible.  

Deferred Commissions

We consider sales commissions to be incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. We defer and recognize an asset for sales commissions related to performance obligations with an expected period of benefit of more than one year.  We apply the practical expedient to expense sales commissions when the amortization period would have been one year or less. Deferred commissions were $3.9 million as of March 31, 2019, of which $2.6 million is included in other assets and $1.3 million is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets. Sales commission expense is included in Sales and Marketing expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Amortization of sales commissions was $0.4 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. No impairment losses were recognized during the periods.

 

3.

Fair Value Measurement

We measure our investments based on a fair value hierarchy disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value.  Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of asset or liability and its characteristics.  This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows:

 

Level 1–Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments.

 

Level 2–Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

 

Level 3–Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

10


 

Investments with maturities of 90 days or less from the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents; investments with maturities of greater than 90 days from the date of purchase but less than one year are generally classified as short-term investments; and investments with maturities of one year or greater from the date of purchase are generally classified as long-term investments.  Unrealized holding gains and losses are reflected as a net amount in a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized.  For the purposes of computing realized gains and losses, cost is determined on a specific identification basis.

At March 31, 2019, our cash and cash equivalents were $87.4 million and $17.5 million, respectively. We had no short-term investments at March 31, 2019 and, currently, have no long-term investments. Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid money market funds of $9.7 million and certificates of deposit of $7.8 million. Short-term investments in the prior period consisted of certificates of deposit. For money market funds, we use quoted prices from active markets that are classified at Level 1, the highest level of observable input in the disclosure hierarchy framework. We had no investments classified at Level 2 or Level 3 at March 31, 2019.

 

4.

Leases

 

We lease our facilities and some of our equipment under noncancelable operating lease arrangements that expire at various dates through 2029. In 2019, we entered into two lease agreements for office space in Bangalore, India for a ten-year term. The total operating lease liabilities for these leases at March 31, 2019 was approximately $13.1 million. In 2014, we amended our Atlanta headquarters lease to obtain additional space and extended the lease term to September 2025. As part of this amended lease agreement, we received reimbursement of $1.3 million from the landlord in 2018 for leasehold improvements. For a few of our facility leases, we have certain options to extend the lease term for up to 10 years, at our sole discretion. We have no finance leases.

6.

Income Taxes

 

Our effective tax rate was 24.8% and 20.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019 is the result of a decrease in deductible tax expense of: $0.8 million in excess tax benefits on restricted stock vestings and $0.3 million related to a provisional one-time estimate for the impact of 2017 U.S. Tax Reform recorded in 2018.

We apply the provisions for income taxes related to, among other things, accounting for uncertain tax positions and disclosure requirements in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, there were no material changes to our uncertain tax positions. There has been no change to our policy that recognizes potential interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions within our global operations in income tax expense.

 

We conduct business globally and, as a result, file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions.  In the normal course of business, Manhattan is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world.  We are no longer subject to the U.S. federal, substantially all state and local income tax examinations and substantially all non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 2012.

Contingencies

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of the ordinary course of business, and occasionally legal proceedings not in the ordinary course. Many of our installations involve products that are critical to the operations of our clients’ businesses. Any failure in a company’s product could result in a claim for substantial damages against us, regardless of our responsibility for such failure. Although we attempt to limit contractually our liability for damages arising from product failures or negligent acts or omissions, there can be no assurance that the limitations of liability set forth in our contracts will be enforceable in all instances. We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business or other legal proceedings the result of which we believe is likely to have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. We expense legal costs associated with loss contingencies as such legal costs are incurred.

 

9.

Operating Segments

We manage our business by geography, and have three geographic reportable segments: North and Latin America (the “Americas”); Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA); and Asia Pacific (APAC). All segments derive revenue from the sale and implementation of our supply chain commerce solutions.  The individual products sold by the segments are similar in nature and are all designed to help companies manage the effectiveness and efficiency of their supply chain commerce. We use the same accounting policies for each reportable segment. The chief executive officer and chief financial officer evaluate performance based on revenue and operating results for each reportable segment.

The Americas segment charges royalty fees to the other segments based on software licenses and cloud subscriptions sold by those reportable segments. The royalties, which totaled approximately $1.7 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, are included in costs of revenue for each segment with a corresponding reduction in the Americas segment’s cost of revenue. The revenues represented below are from external customers only. The geography-based costs consist of costs for professional services personnel, direct sales and marketing expenses, infrastructure costs to support the employee and customer base, billing and financial systems, management and general and administrative support.  Certain corporate expenses included in the Americas segment are not charged to the other segments.  Such expenses include research and development, certain marketing and general and administrative costs that support the global organization, and the amortization of acquired developed technology. Costs in the Americas segment include all research and development costs, including the costs associated with our operations in India.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, including the notes to those statements, included elsewhere in this quarterly report. We also recommend the following discussion be read in conjunction with management’s discussion and analysis and consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Statements in the following discussion that are not statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements.” Actual results may differ materially from the results predicted in such forward-looking statements, for a variety of factors.  See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.

References in this filing to the “Company,” “Manhattan,” “Manhattan Associates,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Manhattan Associates, Inc., our predecessors, and our wholly-owned and consolidated subsidiaries.

Business Overview

We develop, sell, deploy, service and maintain software solutions designed to manage supply chains, inventory and omnichannel operations for retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers, logistics providers and other organizations. Our customers include many of the world’s most premier and profitable brands.

Our business model is singularly focused on the development and implementation of complex commerce enablement software solutions that are designed to optimize supply chains, and retail store operations including point of sale effectiveness and efficiency for our customers.

We have five principal sources of revenue:

 

cloud subscriptions, including software as a service (“SaaS”) and hosting of software;

 

licenses of our software;

 

customer support services and software enhancements (collectively, “maintenance”);

 

professional services, including solutions planning and implementation, related consulting, customer training, and reimbursements from customers for out-of-pocket expenses (collectively, “services”); and

 

hardware sales.

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, we generated $148.4 million in total revenue with a revenue mix of: cloud subscription 5%; license 9%; maintenance 24%; services 60%; and hardware 2%.

We have three geographic reportable segments: North and Latin America (the “Americas”), Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and Asia-Pacific (APAC).  Geographic revenue is based on the location of the sale. Our international revenue was approximately $47.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, which represents approximately 30% of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019. International revenue includes all revenue derived from sales to customers outside the United States. At March 31, 2019, we employed approximately 3,100 employees worldwide. We have offices in Australia, Chile, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, the Netherlands, Singapore, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as representatives in Mexico and reseller partnerships in Latin America, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, South Africa, and Asia.

Future Expectations

Our transition to a cloud subscription model, shifting industry dynamics, economic uncertainty in retail, and our adoption of the new revenue recognition standard (ASC Topic 606) on January 1, 2018, impacted our revenue and earnings growth in 2017 and 2018. We expect that, going forward, our transition to a cloud subscription model, including enterprise investments in innovation, sales and marketing, IT, facilities and people, as well as retail global macroeconomic conditions as a whole, could impact revenue and earnings growth. The pace at which the market for our products transitions from perpetual, on-premises installation to cloud subscriptions, which result in revenue recognition spread out over the subscription period rather than up front, and the lead times for developing new business, which can be long for our products, can cause uncertainty for our future expectations, particularly with respect to our ability to accurately forecast bookings and revenues from quarter to quarter and over the longer term.


 

15


 

 

For 2019, our five strategic goals continue to be:

 

Focus on customer success and drive sustainable long-term growth;

 

Aggressively invest in innovation to expand our products and total addressable market;

 

Develop and grow our cloud operations and cloud subscription revenue;

 

Expand our Manhattan Active Omni/Point-of-Sale/Customer Engagement Business; and

 

Expand our global sales and marketing teams.

Cloud Subscription

Historically, our software licenses were sold as perpetual licenses, under which customers own the software license and revenue is recognized at the time of sale. In 2017, we released Manhattan Active™ Solutions, accelerating our business transition to cloud subscriptions. Under a cloud subscription, customers pay a periodic fee for the right to use our software within a cloud-based environment that we provide and manage over a specified period of time. As part of our subscription program, we allow our existing customers to convert their maintenance contracts to cloud subscription contracts. While it is early in our transition, a few customers converted their maintenance contracts to subscriptions in 2017, 2018 and in the first quarter of 2019, and we expect there will be continued opportunities to convert existing maintenance contracts to cloud subscription contracts in the remaining months of 2019 and beyond.

With the launch of Manhattan Active™ Solutions, the transition to a cloud subscription model has had, and will continue to have, an adverse impact on revenue, earnings and cash flow relative to periods in which we primarily sell perpetual licenses. This effect will continue until a stable, recurring mix of perpetual license to cloud subscription revenue develops.

Global Economic Trends and Industry Factors

Global macro-economic trends, technology spending, and supply chain management market growth are important barometers for our business. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, approximately 70% of our total revenue was generated in the United States, 20% in EMEA, and the remaining balance in APAC, Canada, and Latin America. In addition, Gartner Inc. (“Gartner”), an information technology research and advisory company, estimates that nearly 80% of every supply chain software solutions dollar invested is spent in North America and Western Europe; consequently, the health of the U.S. and the Western European economies have a meaningful impact on our financial results.

We sell technology-based solutions with total pricing, including software and services, in many cases exceeding $1.0 million. Our software is often a part of our customers’ and prospects’ much larger capital commitment associated with facilities expansion and business improvement. We believe that, given the lingering uncertainty in the global macro environment primarily in the retail industry, the current sales cycles for large license sales and cloud subscriptions of $1.0 million or greater in our target markets have been extended. The current business climate within the United States and geographic regions in which we operate continue to affect customers’ and prospects’ decisions regarding timing of strategic capital expenditures. Delays with respect to such decisions can have a material adverse impact on our business and may further intensify competition in our already highly competitive markets.

While we are encouraged by our results, we, along with many of our customers, still remain cautious regarding the pace of global economic growth. We believe global geopolitical and economic volatility likely will continue to shape customers’ and prospects’ enterprise software buying decisions, making it challenging to forecast sales cycles for our products and the timing of large enterprise software license and cloud subscription sales.

Revenue

Software License and Cloud Subscriptions revenue.  Software license and cloud subscriptions revenue, leading indicators of our business performance, are primarily derived from software license, and cloud subscription fees that customers pay for supply chain solutions. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, software license revenue totaled $12.4 million, or 9% of total revenue, with a gross margin of 95.2%. Software license revenue recognized by the Americas, EMEA, and APAC segments totaled $6.1 million, $6.1 million, and $0.2 million, respectively, in the three months ended March 31, 2019. Prior to 2017, the overall trend was steady for our large license sales. However, in 2017, we began experiencing extended sales cycles and evaluations with greater focus on capital prioritization as retailers evaluated restructuring and transforming their omni-channel/digital commerce businesses. In addition, during 2017, we introduced Manhattan Active Solutions, our cloud-based solutions, and began to see our customer’s transition from perpetual software licenses to cloud-based services solutions. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, cloud subscriptions revenue totaled $7.9 million or 5% of total revenues. The Americas, EMEA and APAC segments recognized $6.9 million, $0.8 million and $0.2 million in cloud subscriptions revenue, respectively, in the three months ended March 31, 2019. Cloud

subscriptions revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically 36 to 60 months. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, the percentage mix of new to existing customers for the combination of software license and cloud subscriptions revenue was approximately 25/75.

Software license and cloud subscriptions revenue growth are influenced by the strength of general economic and business conditions and the competitive position of our software products. These revenues generally have long sales cycles. In addition, the timing of the closing of a few large software license transactions can have a material impact on our software license revenues, operating profit, operating margins and earnings per share. For example, $0.9 million of either pre-tax profit or expense in the first quarter of 2019 equates to approximately one cent of diluted earnings per share impact.

Our software solutions are focused on core supply chain commerce operations (Warehouse Management, Transportation Management and Labor Management), Inventory optimization and Omnichannel operations (e-commerce, retail store operations and point of sale), which are intensely competitive markets characterized by rapid technological change. We are a market leader in the supply chain management software solutions market as defined by industry analysts such as ARC Advisory Group and Gartner. Our goal is to extend our position as a leading global supply chain solutions provider by growing our software license and cloud subscriptions revenues faster than our competitors through investment in innovation. We expect to continue to face increased competition from Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Supply Chain Management application vendors and business application software vendors that may broaden their solutions offerings by internally developing, or by acquiring or partnering with independent developers of supply chain planning and execution software. Increased competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced gross margins, and loss of market share.

Maintenance Revenue. Our maintenance revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019 totaled $36.1 million, or 24% of total revenue. The Americas, EMEA and APAC segments recognized $29.1 million, $4.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively, in maintenance revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2019.  For maintenance, we offer a comprehensive 24 hours per day, 365 days per year program that provides our customers with software upgrades, when and if available, which include additional or improved functionality and technological advances incorporating emerging supply chain and industry initiatives. The growth of maintenance revenues is influenced by: (1) new license revenue growth; (2) annual renewal of support contracts; (3) increase in customers through acquisitions; (4) fluctuations in currency rates, and (5) conversion of maintenance contracts to cloud subscription contracts. Substantially all of our customers renew their annual support contracts. Over the last three years, our annual revenue renewal rate of customers subscribing to comprehensive support and enhancements has been greater than 90%. Maintenance revenue is generally paid in advance and recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically twelve months. Maintenance renewal revenue is recognized over the renewal period once we have a contract upon payment from the customer.

Services revenue.  In the three months ended March 31, 2019, our services revenue totaled $88.6 million, or 60% of total revenue. The Americas, EMEA and APAC segments recognized $69.3 million, $14.6 million and $4.7 million, respectively. Due to our large services revenue mix as a percentage of total revenue, our consolidated operating margin profile may be lower than those of our competitors, and while we believe our services margins are strong, they do lower our operating margin profile as services margins are inherently lower than the margin for software license revenue and some of our other revenue sources.

Our professional services organization provides our customers with expertise and assistance in planning and implementing our solutions.  To ensure a successful product implementation, consultants assist customers with initial installation of a system, the conversion and transfer of the customer’s historical data onto our systems, and ongoing training, education, and system upgrades.  We believe our professional services enable customers to implement our software rapidly, ensure the customer’s success with our solutions, strengthen our customer relationships, and add to our industry-specific knowledge base for use in future implementations and product innovations.

Although our professional services are optional, the majority of our customers use at least some portion of these services for their planning, implementation, or related needs.  Professional services are typically rendered under time and materials-based contracts with services typically billed on an hourly basis.  Professional services are sometimes rendered under fixed-fee based contracts with payments due on specific dates or milestones.

Services revenue growth is contingent upon our software license revenue, cloud subscriptions and customer upgrade cycles, which are influenced by the strength of general economic and business conditions and the competitive position of our software products.  In addition, our professional services business has competitive exposure to offshore providers and other consulting companies.  All of these factors potentially create the risk of pricing pressure, fewer customer orders, reduced gross margins, and loss of market share.

Services revenue also includes reimbursements from customers for out-of-pocket expenses. The total amount of expense reimbursement recorded to service revenue was $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Hardware Revenue. Our hardware revenue, which we recognize net of related costs as of January 1, 2018, totaled $3.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019 representing 2% of total revenue.  In conjunction with the licensing of our software, and as a convenience for our customers, we resell a variety of hardware products developed and manufactured by third parties.  These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, RFID chip readers, bar code printers and scanners, and other peripherals.  We resell all third-party hardware products and related maintenance pursuant to agreements with manufacturers or through distributor-authorized reseller agreements pursuant to which we are entitled to purchase hardware products and services at discount prices.  We generally purchase hardware from our vendors only after receiving an order from a customer.  As a result, we do not maintain hardware inventory.

Product Development

We continue to invest significantly in research and development (R&D) to provide leading solutions that help global retailers, manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and logistics providers successfully manage accelerating and fluctuating demands as well as the increasing complexity and volatility of their local and global supply chains, retail store operations and point of sale. Our R&D expenses were $21.2 million for three months ended March 31, 2019.

We expect to continue to focus our R&D resources on the development and enhancement of our core supply chain, inventory optimization, omni-channel and point of sale software solutions.  We offer what we believe to be the broadest solutions portfolio in the supply chain solutions marketplace, to address all aspects of inventory optimization, transportation management, distribution management, planning, and omni-channel operations including order management, store inventory & fulfillment, call center and point of sale.

We also plan to continue to enhance our existing solutions and to introduce new solutions to address evolving industry standards and market needs.  We identify opportunities to further enhance our solutions and to develop and provide new solutions through our customer support organization, as well as through ongoing customer consulting engagements and implementations, interactions with our user groups, associations with leading industry analysts and market research firms, and participation in industry standard setting and research committees.  Our solutions address the needs of customers in various vertical markets, including retail, consumer goods, food and grocery, logistics service providers, industrial and wholesale, high technology and electronics, life sciences, and government.

Cash Flow and Financial Condition

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we generated cash flow from operating activities of $35.2 million. Our cash at March 31, 2019 totaled $104.9 million, with no debt on our balance sheet. We currently have no credit facilities. Our primary uses of cash continue to be to provide funding for investments in R&D, in operations to drive earnings growth, and repurchases of our common stock.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we repurchased 463,680 shares of Manhattan Associates’ outstanding common stock for approximately $24.9 million under the share repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors, and in April 2019, our Board of Directors confirmed our existing authority to repurchase up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of our common stock.

For the remainder of 2019, our priorities for use of cash will continue to be investments in product development and in the growth of our business. We expect to continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities that are complementary to our product footprint and technology direction. We also expect to continue to weigh our share repurchase options against cash for acquisitions and investing in the business. We do not anticipate any borrowing requirements for the remainder of 2019 for general corporate purposes.

Cloud Subscriptions revenue. In 2017, we released Manhattan Active™ Solutions accelerating our business transition to cloud subscriptions. In the first quarter of 2019, cloud subscriptions revenue increased $3.4 million compared to the same quarter in the prior year, as customers began to purchase our SaaS offerings rather than a traditional perpetual license. Our customers increasingly prefer cloud-based solutions, including existing customers that are migrating from on-premise to cloud-based offerings. Cloud subscriptions revenue for the Americas, EMEA and APAC segments increased $2.8 million, $0.4 million and $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2019, respectively.  The APAC segment began recognizing cloud subscriptions revenue for the first time in 2018.

 

Software License revenue.  Software license revenue increased $4.9 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Our license revenue performance depends on the number and relative value of large deals we close in the period. License revenue for the Americas and EMEA segments increased $2.6 million and $4.3 million, respectively, while license revenue for the APAC segment decreased $2.0 million.

The perpetual license sales percentage mix across our product suite in the first quarter ended March 31, 2019 was approximately 80% warehouse management solutions.

 

Maintenance revenue. Maintenance revenue was relatively flat in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Maintenance revenue for the Americas and EMEA segment decreased $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, while maintenance revenue for the APAC segment increased $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior year.

 

21


 

Services revenue.  Services revenue increased $9.9 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior year on improving demand in the Americas and solid growth in EMEA and APAC. Services revenue for the Americas, EMEA and APAC segments increased $5.2 million, $2.6 million and $2.1 million, respectively, compared to the same quarter in the prior year.

Service revenue includes reimbursements for professional service travel expenses that are required to be classified as revenue. Reimbursements by customers for out-of-pocket expenses were approximately $3.6 million and $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Hardware revenue.  Hardware sales was relatively flat in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018. The majority of our hardware revenue is derived from our Americas segment. Sales of hardware is largely dependent upon customer-specific desires, which fluctuate.

Cost of Software License.  Cost of software license consists of the costs associated with software reproduction; media, packaging and delivery; documentation, and other related costs; and royalties on third-party software sold with or as part of our products. Cost of software license decreased $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared with the same quarter in the prior year due primarily to a decrease in royalty expenses.

Cost of Cloud Subscriptions, Maintenance and Services.  Costs of cloud subscriptions, maintenance and services consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of employees dedicated to cloud subscriptions; maintenance services; and professional and technical services as well as hosting fees. The $10.1 million increase in the quarter ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior year was principally due to a $5.2 million increase in compensation and other personnel-related expenses resulting from increased headcount in professional services, a $2.5 million increase in performance-based compensation expense, and a $1.8 million increase in computer infrastructure costs related to cloud business transition.

Research and Development.  Our principal R&D activities have focused on the expansion and integration of new products and releases, while expanding the product footprint of our software solution suites in Supply Chain, Inventory Optimization and Omni-Channel, including cloud-based solutions, point-of-sale and tablet retailing.

 

For each of the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we did not capitalize any R&D costs because the costs incurred following the attainment of technological feasibility for the related software product through the date of general release were insignificant.

 

R&D expenses primarily consist of salaries and other personnel-related costs for personnel involved in our R&D activities. R&D expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 increased by $4.2 million, compared to the same quarter of 2018 principally due

 

22


 

to a $3.1 million increase in compensation and other personnel related expenses resulting from increased headcount to support R&D activities, and a $0.8 million increase in performance-based compensation expense.

Sales and Marketing.  Sales and marketing expenses include salaries, commissions, travel and other personnel-related costs and the costs of our marketing and alliance programs and related activities. Sales and marketing expenses increased $1.9 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior year primarily due to an increase in performance-based compensation expense.

General and administrative (G&A).  G&A expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related costs of executive, financial, human resources, information technology, and administrative personnel, as well as facilities, legal, insurance, accounting, and other administrative expenses. G&A expenses increased $2.3 million, in the current year quarter compared to the same quarter in the prior year, primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in compensation and other personnel related expenses, and a $0.5 million increase in performance-based compensation expense.

Depreciation and Amortization.  Depreciation expense for the first quarter of 2019 and 2018 was $1.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Amortization of intangibles and software for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $0.3 million for each period.

Operating Income

Operating income in the first quarter of 2019 was $28.3 million compared to $27.8 million for the first quarter of 2018. Operating margins were 19.1% for the first quarter of 2019 versus 21.3% for the same quarter in the prior year. Operating margin decreased primarily as a result of our investment in cloud transition, increased investments in innovation, and increased performance-based compensation expense. Operating income increased $2.3 million and $0.4 million in the EMEA and APAC segments, respectively, and decreased $2.3 million in the Americas segment.

Other income, net.  Other income, net primarily includes interest income, foreign currency gains and losses, and other non-operating expenses. Other income, net decreased $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior year primarily due to gains or losses on intercompany transactions denominated in foreign currencies with subsidiaries due to the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar relative to other foreign currencies, primarily the Indian Rupee and Japanese Yen. We recorded net foreign currency losses of $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2019 and net foreign currency gains of $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2018.

Income tax provision.  Our effective income tax rates were 24.8% and 20.7% for the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior year, is the result of a decrease in deductible tax expense of: $0.8 million in excess tax benefits on restricted stock vestings and $0.3 million related to a provisional one-time estimate for the impact of 2017 U.S. Tax Reform recorded in 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the first three months of 2019, we funded our business through cash generated from operations. Our cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2019 included $59.0 million held in the U.S. and $45.9 million held by our foreign subsidiaries. We believe that our cash balances in the U.S. are sufficient to fund our U.S. operations, and we do not intend to repatriate foreign funds to the U.S.  In the future, if we elect to repatriate the unremitted earnings of our foreign subsidiaries, we would no longer be subject to additional U.S. income taxes on such earnings due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in December 2017, but we could be subject to additional local withholding taxes.

 

23


 

Cash flow from operating activities totaled $35.2 million and $51.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Typical factors affecting our cash provided by operating activities include our level of revenue and earnings for the period, the timing and amount of employee bonus and income tax payments, and the timing of cash collections from our customers which is our primary source of operating cash flow. Cash flow from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 decreased $16.1 million compared to the same period in 2018, which is mainly due to the timing and amount of employee bonus payments and the timing of cash collections from our customers.

Cash received from investing activities was $0.8 million in the first quarter of 2019, while cash used in investing activities was $14.8 million in the first quarter of 2018.  Our investing activities for both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 consisted of capital spending to support company growth and short-term investing. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, net investment maturities totaled $1.4 million while, capital spending was $0.6 million.  For the three months ended March 31, 2018, net purchases of investments totaled $12.6 million, while capital spending was $2.2 million.

Financing activities used cash of $30.2 million and $55.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The principal use of cash for financing activities in both periods was to purchase our common stock, including shares withheld for taxes due upon vesting of restricted stock. Repurchases of our common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 totaled $30.2 million and $55.8 million, respectively, including shares withheld for taxes of $5.2 million and $5.8 million, respectively.

Periodically, opportunities may arise to grow our business through the acquisition of complementary products, and technologies. Any material acquisition could result in a decrease to our working capital depending on the amount, timing, and nature of the consideration to be paid. We believe that our existing cash and investments will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs at least for the next twelve months, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. For the remainder of 2019, we anticipate that our priorities for use of cash will be similar to prior years, with our first priority being continued investment in product development and profitably and growing our business to extend our market leadership. We will continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities that are complementary to our product footprint and technology direction. We will also continue to weigh our share repurchase options against cash for acquisitions and investing in the business. At this time, we do not anticipate any borrowing requirements for the remainder of 2019 for general corporate purposes.
