NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
Note 1.    Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year ending December 31, 2002.
 
The balance sheet at December 31, 2001 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Blue Martini Software, Inc. (“Blue Martini” or the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
 
Reclassifications
 
The 2001 financial information has been reclassified to conform to the 2002 presentation in three respects: (1) revenues and cost of revenues have been reclassified in accordance with EITF Topic D-103 “Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for out-of-pocket Expenses Incurred”, to reflect certain out-of-pocket expenses reimbursed by customers as revenues versus an offset to the related expense. The impact was an increase to both service revenues and cost of service revenues of $822,000 and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001; (2) amortization of deferred stock compensation, previously included in cost of revenues, sales and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative expenses, is now presented as a separate line item as part of operating expenses; and (3) accrued interest receivable related to short-term investments, previously reported as part of other current assets, has been reclassified and is now reported as part of short-term investments. The amount reclassified at December 31, 2001 was $1.8 million.
 
Note 2.    Restructuring Charges
 
In January 2002, the Company implemented a restructuring plan to preserve cash and reduce costs. As part of the restructuring, approximately 30 employees were terminated. The action resulted in a net restructuring charge of $703,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2002 related primarily to severance payments to terminated employees. The following table summarizes the January 2002 restructuring charge and activities related to accrued restructuring charges (in thousands):

Note 3.    Cybrant Acquisition
 
On April 16, 2002, Blue Martini completed its acquisition of The Cybrant Corp. (“Cybrant”) whereby Cybrant became a wholly owned subsidiary of Blue Martini (“the Merger”). Cybrant’s products enable its customers to sell complex products and services externally over the Internet and other platforms and solve complex business problems internally through the use of the software’s solutions architecture. Through the acquisition, the Company fortified its manufacturing and retail industry solutions by adding Cybrant’s interactive selling suite to its existing multi-channel customer relationship management applications. The operating results of Cybrant have been included with the Company’s results beginning with the date of acquisition (April 16, 2002). In the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Company accounted for license revenues from the Cybrant software products using the percentage of completion method, as the installation services related to these arrangements were deemed to be essential to the functionality of the software.
 
The purchase price was approximately $7.6 million, comprising of (1) 4,027,000 shares of common stock valued at $1.58 per share based on the average market price of Blue Martini’s common stock over a five-day period including the two days before and the two days after the day the terms of the acquisition were agreed to and announced, (2) warrants exchanged for the purchase of 508,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.92 per share, expiring in January and March 2007, and (3) approximately $550,000 in costs related to the transaction and exit activities. The amounts and components of the purchase price are presented below (in thousands):
 
Fair value of common stock issued

Estimated restructuring and exit costs

Estimated acquisition-related costs
  
 
200
    

    
$
7,587
    

 
The purchase price has been allocated to assets and liabilities acquired, based on a valuation analysis. Approximately 20% of the shares issued in the Merger have been set aside in an escrow arrangement pending resolution of general representations and warranties. The purchase price may be adjusted in the future based on resolution of the escrowed shares.
 
Approximately $800,000 of the purchase price represents the estimated fair value of acquired in-process research and development projects that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use. Accordingly, this amount was immediately charged to expense upon the acquisition date and is included in the accompanying statements of operations. The value assigned to purchased in-process research and development comprises the following: Versions 4.2 and 5.0 of the Cybrant product. The estimated fair value of these projects was determined by employment of a discounted cash flow model using a discount rate of 35%. The discount rates used take into consideration the stage of completion and the risks surrounding the successful development and commercialization of each of the purchased in-process research and development projects that were valued.
 
The purchased technology and other intangible assets are being amortized to expense over two years with no residual value. Goodwill arising from the acquisition is attributable to the expected synergies in combining product lines. The amount assigned to goodwill is not subject to amortization.

Note 7.    Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The Company adopted as of January 1, 2002 the provisions of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” The adoption of this new standard did not affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested at least annually for impairment, and that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and periodically reviewed for impairment. The Company plans to perform its annual evaluation by the end of 2002. Such evaluation, when performed, may result in a potential impairment of the goodwill and other intangible assets.
 
The Company adopted as of January 1, 2002 the provisions of SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” The adoption of this new standard did not affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets.
 
The Company adopted as of January 1, 2002 the provisions of EITF Topic D-103, “Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for out-of-pocket Expense Incurred.” The impact of adoption of EITF Topic D-103 was an increase to both revenues and costs of revenues by the amounts of reimbursable out-of pocket expenses for all periods presented. See Note 1 “Reclassifications.”
 
Note 8.    Contingent Legal Matters
 
Beginning in July 2001, Blue Martini and certain of its officers and directors were named as defendants in several class action shareholder complaints filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, consolidated under the caption Tortoso v. Blue Martini Software, Inc., et al., Case No. 01-CV-6241. In each of these complaints, the plaintiffs claim that Blue Martini, certain of its officers and directors, and the underwriters of its initial public offering, or IPO, violated the federal securities laws because Blue Martini’s IPO registration statement and prospectus allegedly contained untrue statements of material fact or

9


Table of Contents
omitted material facts regarding the compensation to be received by, and the stock allocation practices of, the IPO underwriters. The plaintiffs seek unspecified monetary damages and other relief. Similar complaints were filed in the same Court against hundreds of other public companies that conducted IPOs of their common stock since the mid-1990s.
 
On August 8, 2001, all of these IPO-related lawsuits were consolidated for pretrial purposes before United States Judge Shira Scheindlin of the Southern District of New York. Judge Scheindlin held an initial case management conference on September 7, 2001, at which time she ordered, among other things, that the time for all defendants in the IPO lawsuits to respond to any complaint be postponed until further order of the Court. Thus, Blue Martini has not been required to answer any of the complaints, and no discovery has been served on Blue Martini.
 
In accordance with Judge Scheindlin’s orders at further status conferences in March and April, the appointed lead plaintiffs’ counsel filed amended, consolidated complaints in the IPO lawsuits on April 19, 2002. Defendants filed a global motion to dismiss the IPO Lawsuits on July 15, 2002, as to which the Court does not expect to issue a decision until at least November 2002. The Company believes that this lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend against it vigorously. The Company believes that the ultimate outcome of this lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position and results of operations.
 
On or about May 3, 2002, a shareholder’s derivative complaint was filed in Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Mateo, under the caption Richard D. Yager, derivatively on behalf of Blue Martini Software, Inc., v. Zweben et al. The complaint purports to be filed on behalf of Blue Martini, names as defendants Blue Martini (as a nominal defendant), certain Blue Martini officers and directors, and Goldman Sachs, the managing underwriter of Blue Martini’s initial public offering, or IPO. The complaint alleges that the defendants breached fiduciary and other duties, were negligent, and were unjustly enriched because the IPO price of Blue Martini’s stock allegedly was set too low. The plaintiff seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief. The case was subsequently removed to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Blue Martini has joined in motions to dismiss filed by co-defendant Goldman Sachs. The complaint has not been served on the individual defendants, no discovery has been taken and no trial date has been set. Similar complaints have been filed in California state courts against other public companies that conducted IPOs of their common stock in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The Company believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend against it vigorously. The Company believes that the ultimate outcome of this action will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position and results of operations.
 
We may be subject to additional legal proceedings and claims, asserted or unasserted, that are in the ordinary course of business. The outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted.
 
Note 9.    Subsequent Events
 
On or about July 24, 2002, a complaint was filed against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Queens. The complaint, captioned Fresh Direct, Inc. v. Blue Martini Software, Inc., was filed by a customer that had licensed our products and engaged us to perform related services. The complaint asserts claims for breach of contract, breach of warranty, negligent misrepresentation, fraud and unjust enrichment. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses and counterclaims against this lawsuit and intends to pursue them vigorously.
 
In July 2002, the Company implemented a restructuring plan to preserve cash and reduce costs. The restructuring consisted of terminating approximately 30 employees. This July 2002 action will result in a restructuring charge in the third quarter of 2002 relating to severance and related costs estimated at between approximately $500,000 and $700,000.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of Blue Martini Software, Inc. (the “Company”) should be read in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including statements using terminology such as “can,” “may,” “believe,” “designated to,” “will,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “potential,” or “continue,” or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology regarding beliefs, plans, expectations or intentions regarding the future. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements and risk factors included in this document are made as of the date hereof, based on information available to the Company as of the date thereof, and the Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or risk factors, unless we are required to do so by law.
 
Overview
 
We provide customer-facing CRM applications and services that drive loyalty, increase sales and reduce the costs to serve across multiple channels. Our revenues are derived from the licensing of our application suite and the sale of related services. The license agreement for our application suite typically provides for an initial fee to use the software in perpetuity. Service revenues are principally derived from consulting services, technical support and training. Our maintenance agreements are typically payable in advance and entitle customers to receive software updates, maintenance releases and technical support and typically have a one-year term. Consulting services and training are generally sold on a time-and-materials basis.
 
We market our application suite primarily through a direct sales force with support from resellers. We also engage in alliances with systems integrators and technology vendors to assist us in marketing and selling our application suite and related services. A majority of our customers use systems integrators to implement our product, and systems integrators are a significant influence in our customers’ purchasing decisions. We primarily target our products to the manufacturing and retail industries but have also delivered solutions to customers in a wide range of industries, including education, energy, healthcare, pharmaceuticals and telecommunications.
 
While our revenues to date have been derived principally from customers in the United States, international revenues accounted for 15% of our revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002. We believe that international revenues may represent a significant portion of our total revenues in the future but may fluctuate as a percentage of revenues in the near term. Although we have a limited operating history, our quarterly operating results have experienced seasonal fluctuations in the past. Quarterly results fluctuate based on several factors, including our customers’ fiscal year, budgeting cycles, sales incentive plans, slow summer purchasing patterns and general economic conditions in markets where we conduct business.
 
To date, we have derived a significant portion of our revenues from a small number of customers. The loss of a major potential customer or the delay or cancellation of anticipated significant license contracts would adversely affect our revenues and operating results in a particular quarterly period. Failure to obtain a significant number of new customers or additional orders from existing customers in any period would adversely affect our business and operating results.
 
We believe that, to be successful, we must expand our customer base, grow our relationships with consulting and system integrator partners, and continue to enhance our application suite. Our operating expenses are based in part on our expectations of future revenues over the long term, and are largely fixed in the short term. As such, a delay in completion of new customer license contracts or the recognition of

11


Table of Contents
revenues from one or more license contracts could cause significant variations in our operating results from quarter to quarter and could result in net losses in a given quarter being greater than expected.
 
On April 16, 2002, Blue Martini completed the acquisition of The Cybrant Corp. (“Cybrant”) through the merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of Blue Martini with and into Cybrant, with Cybrant surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Blue Martini (“the Merger”). Cybrant’s products enable its customers to sell complex products and services externally over the Internet and other platforms and solve complex business problems internally through the use of the software’s solutions architecture. The operating results of Cybrant have been included with the Company’s results beginning with the date of acquisition (April 16, 2002). See Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
In January and July 2002, the Company implemented restructuring plans to preserve cash and reduce costs. Each of the restructurings consisted of terminating approximately 30 employees. The January 2002 action resulted in a net restructuring charge of $703,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2002 related primarily to severance payments to terminated employees. The July 2002 action will result in additional restructuring charges relating to severance and related costs in the third quarter of 2002 estimated at between approximately $500,000 and $700,000.
 
Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 and 2001
 
Revenues
 
License.    License revenues decreased from $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and from $14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, due primarily to a decrease in the number of transactions and the average amount of license transactions. In the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Company accounted for license revenues from the Cybrant software products using the percentage of completion method, as the installation services related to these arrangements were deemed to be essential to the functionality of the software.
 
We attribute the decrease in license revenues in part to the overall global economic and business conditions that adversely impact information technology spending, particularly by companies in our target markets. Accordingly, the Company’s business is affected by the economic and business conditions of these target markets and the demand for information technology within these industries, resulting in an increase in the average length of our sales cycles, a marked increase in competitive pricing pressure and a decrease in the average amount of license transactions. Overall economic conditions continue to be extremely difficult and customers in our target markets have reduced their capital spending. We expect these conditions to persist for the remainder of 2002.
 
Service.    Service revenues decreased to $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $10.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and decreased to $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $23.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The decrease was primarily due to an overall reduction in the number of license contracts signed resulting in a decrease in the number of customers under consulting service engagements, customer maintenance agreements, and training engagements. We expect that our service revenues will continue to fluctuate. During fiscal 2001 and the six months ended June 30, 2002, we experienced pricing pressures from rate reductions by many system integrators and other third-party service providers as well as our competing vendors. We expect these pricing pressures to continue in the foreseeable future.
 
The Company adopted the provisions of EITF Topic D-103 as of January 1, 2002. The Company is now reporting reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses as service revenues for all periods presented. This reclassification amounted to $822,000 and $1.7 million for the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2002 respectively, and increased both service revenues and cost of service revenues for each of the periods.

Table of Contents
 
Cost of Revenues
 
License.    Cost of license revenues consists of royalties payable to third parties and amortization of purchased intangible assets for software that is either embedded in or bundled with our products. Cost of license revenues was $1.2 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, which represents 73% and 20% of license revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Cost of license revenues was $1.8 million and $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, or 68% and 17% of license revenues for the same periods, respectively. Although in absolute dollar terms, cost of license revenues was consistent between periods, the increase as a percentage of license revenues for the periods ended June 30, 2002 is due to the fixed amortization of existing purchased intangibles and intangibles acquired from the Cybrant acquisition. Our cost of licenses, when expressed in absolute dollar terms, will be impacted by our license revenues. We expect cost of license revenues to remain relatively constant in absolute dollars, irrespective of changes in license revenues due to the relatively fixed amortization of purchased intangibles.
 
Service.    Cost of service revenues consists primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses, costs of services provided by third party consultants engaged by the company, allocated overhead costs, and depreciation of equipment used to provide consulting services, technical support and training. Allocated overhead costs for costs of services and other expense categories include facilities, information systems, and other corporate infrastructure costs. Cost of service revenues decreased to $5.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $12.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. These amounts represented 78% and 115% of service revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Cost of service revenues decreased from $25.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $10.6 million for six months ended June 30, 2002. The amounts represented 74% and 106% of service revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The decrease in absolute dollars was primarily due to the reduction in force and other cost-saving actions implemented in 2001 and continued through early 2002. Because our cost of service revenues is relatively fixed, our cost of services, when expressed as a percentage of related service revenues, may fluctuate in the near term, based primarily on our related service revenues.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Sales and Marketing.    Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, and other personnel-related expenses associated with our direct sales and marketing personnel, allocated overhead expenses, and costs of marketing programs including trade shows, advertisements, promotional activities and media events. Sales and marketing expenses decreased to $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $14.0 million for the same period in 2001. Sales and marketing expenses also decreased from $29.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $15.1 million for the same period in 2001. The decrease was primarily due to lower spending on marketing and advertising programs and lower personnel related expenses resulting from our reductions in force and other cost-saving actions implemented in 2001 and 2002. Marketing expenses, which consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, marketing programs, and travel expenses, are relatively fixed and do not vary significantly with fluctuations in revenues. Sales expense, with its relatively larger commission component, does vary with revenues but remains relatively fixed as a percentage of revenues. The Company expects to continue efforts to closely monitor discretionary spending and to maintain and enhance its cost control initiatives. The Company expects that sales and marketing expenses will decline in absolute dollars in the near term.
 
Research and Development.    Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses for engineering personnel, allocated overhead costs, costs of contractors, and depreciation of equipment used in the development of our software products. To date, all costs related to the development of our software have been expensed as incurred.
 
Research and development expenses decreased to $3.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $4.9 million for the same period in 2001. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, research and development expenditures decreased to $7.4 million from $11.1 million, respectively. The decrease

13


Table of Contents
was primarily due to a decrease in personnel-related expenses resulting from reduction in force and other cost-saving actions implemented in 2001 and early 2002. Although in absolute dollars, research and development expenditures decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2002, as a percentage of total operating expenses, research and development increased from 20% to 25% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2002, respectively, and 19% to 28% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2002, respectively. The Company will continue to invest in research and development activities, maintaining absolute dollar levels comparable to those for the three months ended June 30, 2002.
 
General and Administrative.    General and administrative expenses include costs associated with our finance, human resources, legal, and other administrative functions. These costs consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses, professional fees, provision for doubtful accounts, equipment depreciation, and allocated overhead costs. General and administrative expenses decreased to $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $3.0 million for the same period in 2001. For the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2002, general and administrative expenses decreased from $7.1 million to $3.6 million, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the reductions in force and other cost-saving actions implemented in 2001 and early 2002, which resulted in a decrease in expenses for administrative personnel and related activities.
 
Amortization of Deferred Stock Compensation.    Net amortization of deferred stock compensation expense resulted in a charge of $909,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to a charge of $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. For the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2002, net amortization of deferred stock compensation expense decreased from a charge for $9.7 million to a credit of $1.1 million, respectively. The credit was the result of the effects of forfeitures of unvested stock options and the corresponding adjustment of the amortization of deferred stock compensation amortized on an accelerated basis. Net amortization of deferred stock compensation consists of the amortization of deferred stock compensation using the accelerated method, net of an adjustment for terminated employees during the quarter that reverses previously recognized expenses calculated on the accelerated method and records the expense on the straight-line method. At June 30, 2002, the unamortized deferred stock compensation balance was $3.8 million.
 
In-Process Research and Development.    Approximately $800,000 of the purchase price in the Cybrant acquisition represents the estimated fair value of acquired in-process research and development projects that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use. Accordingly, this amount was immediately charged to expense upon the acquisition date and is included in the accompanying statements of operations. The value assigned to purchased in-process research and development comprises of the following: Versions 4.2 and 5.0 of the Cybrant product. The estimated fair value of these projects was determined by employment of a discounted cash flow model using a discount rate of 35%. The discount rates used take into consideration the stage of completion and the risks surrounding the successful development and commercialization of each of the purchased in-process research and development projects that were valued. As of April 16, 2002, the in-process research and development projects were approximately 26% complete and the estimated time of completion for these projects was in the second half of 2002. We expect significant cash flows from these projects to occur in 2003. The in-process research and development was charged to expense in the second quarter of 2002. See Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
Interest Income and Other, Net
 
Interest income and other, net consists primarily of interest income from cash, cash equivalents and available-for-sale short-term investments. Interest income and other, net decreased to $594,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. For the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2002, interest income and other, net decreased from $3.8 million to $1.5 million, respectively. The decrease was due primarily to lower interest rates as well as lower balances of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments during the quarter ended June 30, 2002. We expect interest income to decrease as the amount of cash and cash equivalents available for investment decreases

14


Table of Contents
as cash is used in operations. In addition, due to current prevailing interest rates, reinvestment of maturing marketable securities is expected to generate lower interest income.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of June 30, 2002, cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $78.7 million, compared to $97.5 million as of December 31, 2001. Net cash used in operating activities decreased from $32.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $18.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, due primarily to a reduction of net loss resulting from the company’s restructuring activities in 2001 and 2002 and continued cost management initiatives.
 
Net cash provided by investing activities increased from $18.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $21.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase was due primarily to the payments made on the purchase of intangible assets in 2001, which the Company did not have in 2002.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased from $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to net cash used by financing activities of $289,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 due primarily to the repayment of debt consisting of loans and leases from the Cybrant acquisition and a reduction in proceeds from employee stock option exercises.
 
At June 20, 2002, we had aggregate operating lease commitments of approximately $12.7 million, payable through 2006.
 
In June 2002, the Company’s board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to 5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had repurchased and retired 416,800 shares of its common stock in open market transactions at prevailing market prices for a total cost of approximately $372,000, including commission. If we continue to repurchase our outstanding common stock, additional cash will be used.
 
Our liquidity, capital resources and results of operations in any period could be impacted by the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and issuance of our common stock under employee stock purchase plan. Further, our per share results of operations could also be impacted by the increased number of outstanding shares. However, we cannot predict the timing or amount of proceeds from the exercise of these securities, if they are exercised at all.
 
We expect that for the foreseeable future, our operating expenses and planned capital expenditures will constitute a significant use of our cash balances. In addition, we may use cash to fund acquisitions or invest in other businesses, technologies or product lines. We currently anticipate that our existing cash and investments will be sufficient to meet our presently anticipated working capital, capital expenditure and our operating requirements for at least the next 12 months. Either within this time period or at some future date, if our current financial performance continues, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity financing. There can be no assurance that this additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on reasonable terms and not dilutive to our stockholders. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, we would have to accept financing on terms we view as unreasonable or that are dilutive to our stockholders, or to cease operations. If we were to seek additional financing today, we do not believe it would be available on reasonable terms.
 
The existence or even the anticipation of an uncertain economic environment by potential customers in the markets in which we operate has affected the demand for our applications, caused pricing pressures for our products, increased customer requests for extended payment terms, and substantially reduced our sales activity during 2001 and the first half of 2002, and we expect it will continue to do so in future periods, which could in turn materially reduce our liquidity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The Company adopted as of January 1, 2002 the provisions of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” The adoption of this new standard did not affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested at least annually for impairment and that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and periodically reviewed for impairment. The Company plans to perform its annual evaluation by the end of 2002. Such an evaluation, when performed, may result in a potential impairment of the goodwill and other intangible assets.
 
The Company adopted as of January 1, 2002 the provisions of SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” The adoption of this new standard did not affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets.
 
The Company adopted as of January 1, 2002 the provisions of EITF Topic D-103, “Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for ‘out-of-pocket’ Expense Incurred.” The impact of adoption of EITF Topic D-103 was to increase both revenues and costs of revenues by the amounts relating to the reimbursable out-of pocket expenses for all periods presented. See Note 1 “Reclassifications.”
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
Please refer to our discussion of critical accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 under Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
We Disclose Pro Forma Financial Information
 
We prepare and release quarterly unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We also disclose and discuss certain pro forma financial information in the related earnings release and investor conference call. Our pro forma financial information does not include restructuring charges, non-cash stock-based compensation to non-employees, the write-off of in-process research and development expenses from the Cybrant acquisition and amortization of deferred stock compensation, stock-based deferred marketing expense, and acquired intangible assets. We believe the disclosure of the pro forma financial information helps investors more meaningfully evaluate the results of our ongoing operations. However, we urge investors to carefully review the GAAP financial information included as part of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, and our quarterly earnings release, and compare that GAAP financial information with the pro forma financial results disclosed in our quarterly earnings releases and investor calls.

Factors That May Impact Future Operating Results
 
Risks Related To Our Financial Condition
 
We have incurred losses throughout our operating history. These losses may continue for the foreseeable future, and we may not achieve profitability.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2002, we incurred net losses of $20.3 million and as of June 30, 2002, we had an accumulated deficit of $164.5 million. We expect to continue to incur losses on both a quarterly and annual basis, and may continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Moreover, we expect to continue to incur significant costs of services and substantial operating expenses. Further, we will continue to incur stock-based compensation expense in future periods, which represents non-cash charges incurred mostly due to the issuance of stock options prior to our initial public offering on July 25, 2000. Therefore, we will need to significantly increase our revenues to achieve and maintain profitability and a positive cash flow. We may not be able to generate sufficient revenues to achieve profitability.
 
Our declining cash balance and volatile stock price affect our potential and current customers’ and partners’ perception of our viability, which in turn could affect our ability to close sales and partnership transactions.
 
Concerns about our perceived financial viability were a factor in multiple potential and actual customer transactions and partner relationships during 2001 and the quarter ended June 30, 2002. We attribute these concerns primarily to the following: we are not yet profitable and thus must use our cash balance (offset by revenues) to fund our operations; our stock price experienced a dramatic decline from 2000 to 2002; our stock price has been, and continues to be, extremely volatile; and many of our competitors are better funded, more established, or significantly larger than we are. We will continue to use our cash balance (offset by revenues) to fund our operations until we achieve profitability (which may not occur); thus, we expect our cash balance will continue to decline during the rest of 2002. Therefore, if these conditions do not improve significantly in the next year, we expect these concerns about our perceived viability to continue. In addition, in June 2002, the Company’s board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to 5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had repurchased and retired 416,800 shares of its common stock in open market transactions at prevailing market prices for a total cost of approximately $372,000, including commission. If we continue to use our cash balance to repurchase our outstanding common stock, our cash balance may decline at a more rapid pace during the remainder of 2002.

Because our stock price is low and volatile, we could be at risk of having our stock delisted from the NASDAQ, which would harm our business in a number of ways.
 
Our stock is publicly traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market, or NASDAQ. NASDAQ rules allow the stock of a company whose stock price remains below $1 per share for 30 consecutive business days to be delisted (removed from the NASDAQ exchange such that shares can no longer be traded on NASDAQ), unless the company’s stock price exceeds $1 for at least 10 consecutive business days within a 90-day grace period. Our stock price was near or below $1 for a substantial portion of 2001, and has been near or below $1 for portions of 2002. If our stock were to be delisted from NASDAQ, it is likely that customers, partners, and investors may be less likely to do business with us on terms that we view as reasonable, and our operating results would suffer accordingly.
 
Cost-reduction efforts may adversely impact our productivity and service levels.
 
During 2001, we instituted various cost-control measures affecting various aspects of our business operations. We also initiated reductions in our workforce of approximately 13% in March 2001, 25% in July 2001, 10% in January 2002, and 8% in July 2002. Given current economic conditions and our declining revenues over the last several quarters, we may in the future be required to take additional reductions in force and other cost-saving actions to reduce our losses and to conserve cash. The failure to achieve such future cost savings could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. Moreover, even if we are successful with these efforts and generate the anticipated cost savings, there is no assurance that these actions will not adversely impact our employees’ morale and productivity, the competitiveness of our products and business, and the results of our operations.
 
The recoverability of our investment in goodwill, other intangible assets and other assets could be reduced by several factors.
 
As of June 30, 2002, we had approximately $18.2 million of net intangible and other assets and $771,000 of prepaid license royalties to third parties capitalized on our balance sheet. We believe these intangible and other assets and prepaid license royalties are recoverable. However, changes in the economy, the business in which we operate, and our own relative performance could change the assumptions used to evaluate the recoverability of intangible asset and prepaid royalties. We continue to monitor those assumptions and their effect on the estimated recoverability of our intangible assets. We plan to perform an annual evaluation for impairment of our goodwill and other intangible assets, as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” by the end of 2002. Such evaluation, when performed, may result in a potential impairment of the goodwill and other intangible assets.
 
Risks Related To Our Products
 
If we fail to keep pace with technological innovation, improve our existing products, or develop new products, our application suite could become obsolete and our revenues would decline.
 
The market for our application suite is marked by rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions, Internet-related technology enhancements, uncertain product life cycles, changes in client demands and evolving industry standards. New products based on new technologies or new industry standards can render existing products obsolete and unmarketable. To succeed, we will need to enhance our current application suite and develop new products on a timely basis to keep pace with developments related to Internet technology and to satisfy the increasingly sophisticated requirements of our clients.
 
Enterprise application software technology is complex, and new products and product enhancements can require long development and testing periods; we cannot be certain that we will successfully develop and market new products, new product enhancements or new products compliant with present or emerging Internet technology standards. Our future revenues will depend, in significant part, on our ability to successfully develop and license new and enhanced versions of our application suite, and our ability to continue diversifying our offerings by developing and licensing new products. If we are not able to successfully improve our existing products and develop new products, or if we develop new products and they do not achieve market acceptance, or if we were to experience delays in either, our revenues are likely to decline.

Table of Contents
 
If we fail to release new versions and upgrades of our application suite in a timely manner, customers may license competing products and our revenues may decline.
 
We may fail to introduce or deliver new products on a timely basis, if at all. In the past, we have experienced delays in the commencement of commercial shipments of enhancements to our application suite. To date, these delays have not had a material impact on our revenues. If we are unable to ship or implement new products or enhancements to our application suite when planned or at all, or fail to achieve timely market acceptance of these new products or enhancements, we may suffer lost sales and thus reduce our revenues. Our future operating results will depend on demand for our application suite, including new and enhanced releases that are subsequently introduced.
 
If our application suite does not successfully function for customers with large numbers of transactions, customers or product offerings, we may lose sales and suffer decreased revenues.
 
Our application suite must be able to accommodate a large number of transactions, customers and product offerings. Large-scale usage presents significant technical challenges that are difficult or impossible to predict. To date, our application suite has been deployed by only a limited number of customers and, therefore, we can make no assurances that our application suite is able to meet our customers’ demands for large-scale usage. If our customers experience difficulty with our application suite during periods of high traffic or usage, the reputation of our products would suffer and our revenues would be likely to decline accordingly.
 
If our product does not operate with the wide variety of hardware, software and operating systems used by our current and potential customers, our revenues would be harmed.
 
We currently serve a customer base that uses a wide variety of constantly changing hardware, software applications and operating systems. Our application suite will gain broad market acceptance only if it can support a wide variety of hardware, software applications, systems, and standards, including those developed in the future.
 
Defects in our application suite could diminish demand for our application suite and result in loss of revenues, decreased market acceptance, injury to our reputation and product liability claims.
 
As is not unusual for software companies, we have in the past discovered software errors and performance problems with various versions of our application suite after release, and, as a result, have experienced injury to our reputation, increased expenses, delays in the shipment of our application suite and our customers have experienced difficulty in deploying and operating our application suite.
 
Errors in our application suite may be caused by defects in third-party software incorporated into our application suite. If so, we may not be able to fix these defects without the cooperation of these software providers. Since these defects may not be as significant to our software providers as they are to us, we may not receive the rapid cooperation that we may require. We may not have the contractual right to access the source code of third-party software and, even if we access the source code, we may not be able to fix the defect.
 
Since our customers use our application suite for critical business applications such as e-commerce, any errors, defects or other performance problems of our application suite could damage our customers’ businesses. Consequently, these customers could delay or withhold payment to us for our software and services, which could result in an increase in our provision for doubtful accounts or an increase in collection cycles for accounts receivable. In addition, these customers could seek significant compensation from us for their losses. Even if unsuccessful, a product liability claim brought against us would likely be time consuming and costly and harm our reputation, and thus our ability to license to new customers. Even if a suit is not brought, correcting errors in our application suite could increase our expenses. Fresh Direct, a customer, has filed suit against us alleging that our products failed to perform as represented. We believe this allegation is without merit. See Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings.

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property or become subject to intellectual property infringement claims, we may lose a valuable asset or incur costly and time-consuming litigation.
 
Our success depends in part on the development and protection of the proprietary aspects of our technology as well as our ability to operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others. To protect our proprietary technology, we rely primarily on a combination of trade secret, copyright, trademark, and patent laws, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual restrictions. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights and technology, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or obtain the source code to our software or use other information that we regard as proprietary or could develop software competitive to ours. Our means of protecting our proprietary rights may not be adequate, and our competitors may independently develop similar technology or duplicate our product. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others, or to defend against claims of infringement or invalidity. Any such litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources that could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.
 
We have one issued patent and presently have several patent applications pending. It is possible that some of the patents that we have applied for will not be issued, and even if issued, that some or all may be successfully challenged. It is also possible that we may not develop additional proprietary products or technologies that are patentable, that any patent issued to us may fail to provide us with competitive advantage, and that the patents of others may materially harm our ability to do business.
 
In the future, a third party may bring suit claiming that our current or future products infringe its patents, trade secrets or copyrights. Any claims, with or without merit, could be costly and time-consuming to defend, divert our management’s attention, or cause product delays. We have only one currently issued patent that we could use defensively against any company bringing such a claim. If our product was found to infringe a third party’s proprietary rights, we could be required to enter into royalty or licensing agreements to be able to sell our product. Royalty and licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms that are acceptable to us (or at all), which could materially harm our business.
 
Risks Related to Our Market and Our Ability to Sell
 
The current economic downturn has significantly affected demand for our products and services and may continue to adversely impact future revenues.
 
The existence of economic downturns in the markets in which we operate has decreased the demand for our applications, caused pricing pressures for our products, and substantially reduced our sales activity during 2001 and the first two quarters of 2002. In 2001, we signed 29 new license contracts, a decrease from 67 new license contracts signed in 2000. The decreased demand continued into 2002; in the first six months of 2002, we signed 13 new license contracts. Due in part to the macroeconomic conditions during 2001 and the first two quarters of 2002, customers reduced their information technology budgets and postponed or cancelled planned CRM projects, including the evaluation and purchase of new applications, upgrades to existing applications, and purchase of related services. As a result, our revenues have been negatively impacted, and may continue to be in the future.
 
Our budgeting and forecasting depend on estimates of revenue growth in our target markets. Thus, the prevailing economic uncertainty makes it difficult to estimate anticipated license contract signings and future revenues. The future performance of the overall domestic and global economies will have a significant impact on our overall performance. To the extent that the current downturn continues or increases in severity or scope, we believe demand for our products and services, and therefore future revenues, could be further reduced.
 
We may not be able to maintain our competitive position against current and potential competitors.
 
We compete in the highly competitive CRM market, which is subject to rapid technological change. Our products compete with stand-alone point solutions offered by providers such as BroadVision, Inc. and Vignette Corporation, components offered by vendors such as Art Technology Group, Inc. and Microsoft Corporation, and the external-facing CRM products beginning to be offered by vendors such as Oracle Corp., PeopleSoft, Inc., SAP AG, E.phipany, Inc., and Siebel Systems, Inc. Another principal source of competition is the internal information technology departments at potential customers, which may develop systems that provide for some or all of the functionality of our applications.

Compared to us, many of these competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial resources. This may place us at a disadvantage in responding to our competitors’ pricing strategies, technological advances, advertising campaigns, strategic partnerships and other initiatives. Competitive pressures and our perceived viability in this market may make it difficult for us to acquire and retain customers, and may require us to reduce the price of our products which could reduce our revenues and result in increased operating losses.
 
The sales cycle for our products is long, lengthening, and variable, which makes it difficult to predict our future revenues and may cause our operating results to vary significantly.
 
Our revenues and results of operations are difficult to predict and may fluctuate substantially from quarter to quarter. For example, certain indicators that we relied upon in developing our license revenue forecasts, such as our historical pattern of transaction timing and anticipated sales cycles, did not prove reliable during 2001 or during the first two quarters of 2002. During these periods, we continued to see extended sales cycles and postponed customer spending; our average sales period was six to twelve months in 2001 and in the first half of 2002, compared to three to six months in 2000.
 
The period between initial contact with a prospective customer and the licensing of our application suite varies and can range from three to more than twelve months. Because of this variable sales cycle, the timing of revenues from the licensing of our application suite is difficult to forecast. Factors affecting our sales cycle, many of which are beyond our control, include:
 
 
 
Many of our license agreements close within the last few weeks of each quarter;
 
 
 
Customers consider a number of factors related to our products and services, as well as our financial condition, before committing to purchase our application suite. As a result, we spend significant time and resources informing prospective customers about our company, application suite, and other offerings, which may not result in a completed transaction but may nonetheless impact our operating margins;
 
 
 
The licensing of our application suite is often an enterprise-wide decision by our customers that involves many factors and decision-makers; thus, if our customer’s management, budget, or strategy changes, our ability to conclude license agreements may be affected;
 
 
 
Because a substantial portion of our quarterly revenues are derived from a small number of customers, delays in the signing of one or more large license agreements or the loss of a significant customer order may materially affect revenues and our operating results;
 
 
 
Due in part to macroeconomic conditions, customers have postponed or canceled planned CRM projects, including the evaluation and purchase of new applications or upgrades to existing applications, and have increased customer requests for contract terms that affect our ability to recognize revenue. These conditions may persist in the future;
 
 
 
Customer approval processes are unpredictable; delays in approvals, even after selection of a vendor, could impact the timing and amount of revenues recognized in a quarterly period;
 
 
 
Changes in our sales incentive plans may have an unpredictable impact on our sales cycle and contracting activities; and
 
 
 
The number, timing and significance of enhancements to our application suite and the introduction by us or our competitors of new software may affect customers’ purchasing decisions.
 
Because of this variation in sales cycle length, it is difficult for us to predict revenues and thus our operating results could be hard to estimate. For example, if our license results do not meet our internal expectations, our service offerings would be affected (since service utilization lags licenses) and our services revenues would be reduced, which would harm our overall results since service expenses are relatively fixed in the short term.

21


Table of Contents
 
A small number of customers have accounted for a substantial portion of our revenues, and this pattern is likely to continue for the foreseeable future; as a result, our revenues could decline due to the loss or delay of a single customer order, the delay in recognizing revenue associated with a single customer order, or the failure to collect revenue associated with a single customer.
 
Each quarter during our operating history, a relatively small number of customers has accounted for a significant portion of that quarter’s total revenues. We expect this to continue in the future. Thus, the loss or delay of individual orders could have a significant impact on revenues and operating results.
 
The timing of recognition of customer revenue may also affect our results. Customer payments that do not meet our revenue recognition policy requirements are recorded as deferred revenue. Although new agreements may not result in revenues in the quarter in which the agreement was signed, commissions and royalties may nonetheless become payable on such agreements during that quarter, which would impact our operating results.
 
We may not successfully establish ourselves in international markets or generate significant revenues abroad, which could result in slower revenue growth and harm our business.
 
To date, we have generated limited revenues from sales outside the United States. We have established sales offices in the Australia, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Singapore, and United Kingdom, and have also sold successfully in each of these countries. We may add others in the future. If we are not successful in licensing our application suite in international markets, we could experience slower revenue growth and our business could be harmed. We anticipate devoting additional resources and management attention to expanding international opportunities. Our international expansion has a number of effects, including:
 
 
 
greater difficulty in staffing and managing foreign operations;
 
 
 
expenses associated with foreign operations and compliance with applicable laws;
 
 
 
changes in a specific country’s or region’s political or economic conditions;
 
 
 
expenses associated with localizing our product for foreign countries;
 
 
 
differing intellectual property rights and the enforcement of such rights;
 
 
 
protectionist laws and business practices that favor local competitors;
 
 
 
different sales cycles and collection periods or seasonal reductions in business activity;
 
 
 
multiple, conflicting and changing governmental laws and regulations; and
 
 
 
foreign currency restrictions and exchange rate fluctuations.
 
Increasing government regulation of the Internet, imposition of sales and other taxes on products sold by our customers over the Internet and privacy concerns relating to the Internet could reduce the license of our application suite and harm our business.
 
Federal, state or foreign agencies may adopt laws or regulations affecting the use of the Internet as a commercial medium. We expect that laws and regulations relating to user privacy, pricing, content and quality of products and services could indirectly affect our business.
 
Current federal legislation limits the imposition of state and local taxes on Internet-related sales at this time. Congress may choose not to renew this legislation, in which case state and local governments would be free to impose taxes on electronically purchased goods. The imposition of new sales or other taxes could limit the growth of Internet commerce in general and, as a result, the demand for our application suite and services.
 
Businesses use our application suite to capture information regarding their customers when those customers contact them on-line with customer service inquiries. Privacy concerns may cause visitors to withhold personal data, which would limit the effectiveness of our application suite. More importantly, even the perception of privacy concerns, whether or not valid, may indirectly inhibit market acceptance of our application suite.

Risks Related To System Integrators
 
Our failure to develop and maintain strong relationships with consulting and system integrator firms (CSIs) would harm our ability to market our application suite, which could reduce future revenues and increase our expenses.
 
An increasing portion of our sales are influenced by the recommendation of our application suite by systems integrators, consulting firms and other third parties that help deploy our application suite for our customers. Losing the support of these third parties may limit our ability to penetrate our existing or potential markets. These third parties are under no obligation to recommend or support our application suite and could recommend or give higher priority to their own products and services or those of other companies. Our inability to gain the support of CSIs or a shift by these companies toward favoring competing products could negatively affect our software license and service revenues.
 
Some CSIs also engage in joint marketing and sales efforts with us. If our relationships with these CSIs fail, we will have to devote substantially more resources to the sales and marketing of our application suite. In many cases, these parties have extensive relationships with our existing and potential customers and influence the decisions of these customers. A number of our competitors have longer and more established relationships with these CSIs than we do, and as a result those CSIs may be more likely to recommend competitors’ products and services and increase our expenses.
 
Our failure to develop and maintain strong relationships with systems integrators would harm our ability to implement our application suite.
 
Systems integrators assist our customers with the installation and deployment of our application suite, in addition to those products of our competitors, and perform custom integration of computer systems and software. If we are unable to develop and maintain relationships with systems integrators, we would be required to hire additional personnel to install and maintain our application suite, which would result in higher expenses and delays in our ability to recognize revenue.
 
Other Risks
 
Changes in accounting policies created and interpreted by authoritative agencies can have a significant effect on our reported results and may even affect the reporting of transactions completed before a change is announced.
 
We prepare our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles are subject to interpretation by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and various bodies formed to interpret and create accounting policies. A change in these policies can have a significant effect on our reported results and may even affect the reporting of transactions completed before a change is announced. Our accounting policies that may be affected by changes in the accounting rules are as follows:
 
 
 
rules relating to revenue recognition
 
 
 
accounting for business combination
 
 
 
stock-based compensation
 
 
 
goodwill and other intangible assets accounting
 
Changes to these rules or the questioning of current practices may have a significant adverse effect on our reported financial results or in the way in which we conduct our business. See the discussion under “Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 under “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for additional information about our critical accounting policies and some risks associated with these policies.
 
We recently entered into an acquisition, and may enter into other mergers or acquisitions in the future; our business could be affected by the distraction and challenges posed by such transactions.
 
Effective April 16, 2002, we acquired the Cybrant Corporation. In the future, we may merge with, or acquire other technologies or companies. Entering into any business combination entails many risks, any of which could materially harm our business, including:
 
 
 
diversion of the attention of management or key technical employees from other business concerns;
 
 
 
failure to assimilate the combined companies with the pre-existing business;

23


Table of Contents
 
 
 
failure to integrate the acquired technology with our existing technologies;
 
 
 
delays in our product releases caused by the integration of the acquired technology with our existing technologies;
 
 
 
potential loss of key employees from either our pre-existing business or the combined business;
 
 
increasing our cost structure and thus our use of existing cash resources;
 
 
 
dilution of our existing stockholders as a result of issuing equity securities; and
 
 
 
assumption of liabilities of the merged or acquired company.
 
In the future, we may not be able to identify suitable merger or acquisition candidates, and even if we do identify suitable candidates, we may not be able to make these transactions on commercially acceptable terms (if at all). In our acquisition of Cybrant, or if we merge with or acquire other companies in the future, we may not be able to realize the benefits we expected to achieve at the time of entering into the transaction. In any future merger or acquisition, we will likely face the same risks as those discussed above. Further, we may have to use our cash reserves, incur debt, or issue equity securities to pay for any future merger or acquisition. Each of these financing alternatives could have negative consequences, by decreasing our cash reserves, increasing our debt burden, or diluting our existing stockholders.
 
We are the target of securities class action claims and purported shareholders’ derivative complaint relating to our IPO, and are at risk of securities class action litigation, which could result in substantial costs and divert management attention and resources.
 
During July 2001, several securities class action complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against us, the underwriters of our initial public offering, our directors, and certain of our officers. In each of these complaints, the plaintiffs claim that Blue Martini, certain of its officers and directors, and the underwriters of its initial public offering, or IPO, violated the federal securities laws because Blue Martini’s IPO registration statement and prospectus allegedly contained untrue statements of material fact or omitted material facts regarding the compensation to be received by, and the stock allocation practices of, the IPO underwriters. The complaints seek unspecified monetary damages, attorneys fees and other costs. These cases have been consolidated into a single case. Similar complaints were filed in the same court against hundreds of other public companies that conducted IPOs of their common stock since the mid-1990s. In May 2002, a stockholder’s derivative complaint was filed in California state court purportedly on behalf of the Company and naming us, an underwriter of our IPO, and certain of our directors and officers as defendants. The suit claims that the Company’s IPO price was deliberately set too low and that the Company and its stockholders were harmed as a result. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief. Similar complaints have been filed against several other public companies that conducted IPOs of their common stock during the same period as the Company. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses against the lawsuits and intends to defend itself vigorously.
 
In addition, in the past, other types of securities class action litigation have been brought against companies following a decline in the market price of their securities. This risk is especially acute for us because technology companies have experienced greater than average stock price volatility in recent years, particularly since mid-2000, and, as a result, technology companies have been subject to a greater number of securities class action claims than companies in other industries. We may in the future be the target of additional securities class action litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention and resources, which could harm our business.
 
We may have difficulty retaining or recruiting qualified personnel, which could impact the development and license of our application suite.
 
        Difficulty in hiring or retaining qualified personnel, or failure by newly hired personnel to develop necessary skills or reach expected levels of productivity, may weaken our ability to develop and market our application suite. Our success also depends on the continued contributions of key engineering, sales and marketing, management, and professional services personnel. In particular, Monte Zweben, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, would be difficult to replace.
 
        Our ability to increase our sales will depend on our ability to recruit, train and retain top-quality sales people who can target prospective customers’ senior management and generate and service large accounts. In our industry, competition for qualified sales personnel is intense.

Our directors and executive officers maintain significant control over Blue Martini Software, which may lead to conflicts with other stockholders over corporate governance.
 
Our directors, executive officers, and holders of 5% or more of our outstanding common stock owned approximately 51.4% of our outstanding common stock as of April 8, 2002. Monte Zweben, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, together with related entities, owned approximately 39% of our common stock as of this date. These stockholders, acting together, and Mr. Zweben, individually, will be able to significantly influence all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and significant corporate transactions such as mergers or other business combination transactions. This control may delay or prevent a third party from acquiring or merging with us.
 
We have implemented anti-takeover provisions that could discourage or prevent a takeover, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders.
 
Provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders. These provisions include:
 
 
 
establishment of a classified board of directors such that not all members of the board may be elected at one time;
 
 
 
authorizing the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock that could be issued by our board of directors to increase the number of outstanding shares and thwart a takeover attempt;
 
 
 
prohibiting cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise allow less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates;
 
 
 
limitations on the ability of stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders;
 
 
 
prohibiting stockholder action by written consent and requiring all stockholder actions to be taken at a meeting of our stockholders; and
 
 
 
establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at stockholder meetings.
 
In addition, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporations Law and the terms of our stock option plans may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of the Company.
 
ITEM 3.
 
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Foreign Currency Exchange
 
Through June 30, 2002, most of our recognized revenues have been denominated in United States dollars and were from both domestic and international customers. Our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate changes has not been material. We expect that future license and service revenues will continue to be derived from international markets and may be denominated in the currency of the applicable market. We have incurred limited operating expenses denominated in foreign currencies. Our future operating results may become subject to significant fluctuations based upon changes in the exchange rates of foreign currencies in relation to the United States dollar. In the future, we expect to engage in international sales denominated in both the United States dollar and in foreign currencies. An increase in the value of the United States dollar relative to foreign currencies could make our products less competitive in international markets. Although we will continue to monitor our exposure to currency fluctuations and, when appropriate, may use economic hedging techniques in the future to minimize the effect of these fluctuations, we can make no assurances that exchange rate fluctuations will not adversely affect our financial results in the future. Through June 30, 2002, the Company had not engaged in foreign currency hedging activities.
 
Fixed Income Investments
 
        At June 30, 2002, we had an investment portfolio of fixed income securities, including those classified as cash equivalents, of $78.7 million compared to $97.5 million at December 31, 2001. Our exposure to financial market risk, including changes in interest rates, relates primarily to our investment portfolio. Our general policy is to limit the risk of principal loss and ensure the safety of invested funds by limiting market and credit risk. This exposure is limited by the establishment and strict monitoring of compliance with our investment policy which provides for investments in fixed income securities with maturities not exceeding 18 months. This policy also establishes credit quality standards and limits investment exposure to any one issuer. We do not invest in any derivative instruments. The fair value of our investment portfolio or related income would not be significantly impacted by either a 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates due mainly to the relatively short-term nature of our available-for-sale investment portfolio.

PART II.    OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
Beginning in July 2001, Blue Martini and certain of its officers and directors were named as defendants in several class action shareholder complaints filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, consolidated under the caption Tortoso v. Blue Martini Software, Inc., et al., Case No. 01-CV-6241. In each of these complaints, the plaintiffs claim that Blue Martini, certain of its officers and directors, and the underwriters of its initial public offering, or IPO, violated the federal securities laws because Blue Martini’s IPO registration statement and prospectus allegedly contained untrue statements of material fact or omitted material facts regarding the compensation to be received by, and the stock allocation practices of, the IPO underwriters. The plaintiffs seek unspecified monetary damages and other relief. Similar complaints were filed in the same Court against hundreds of other public companies that conducted IPOs of their common stock since the mid-1990s.
 
On August 8, 2001, all of these IPO-related lawsuits were consolidated for pretrial purposes before United States Judge Shira Scheindlin of the Southern District of New York. Judge Scheindlin held an initial case management conference on September 7, 2001, at which time she ordered, among other things, that the time for all defendants in the IPO lawsuits to respond to any complaint be postponed until further order of the Court. Thus, Blue Martini has not been required to answer any of the complaints, and no discovery has been served on Blue Martini.
 
In accordance with Judge Scheindlin’s orders at further status conferences in March and April, the appointed lead plaintiffs’ counsel filed amended, consolidated complaints in the IPO lawsuits on April 19, 2002. Defendants filed a global motion to dismiss the IPO Lawsuits on July 15, 2002, as to which the Court does not expect to issue a decision until at least November 2002. The Company believes that this lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend against it vigorously.
 
On or about May 3, 2002, a shareholder’s derivative complaint was filed in Superior Court of the Sate of California, County of San Mateo, under the caption Richard D. Yager, derivatively on behalf of Blue Martini Software, Inc., v. Zweben et al. The complaint purports to be filed on behalf of Blue Martini, names as defendants Blue Martini (as a nominal defendant), certain Blue Martini officers and directors, and Goldman Sachs, the managing underwriter of Blue Martini’s initial public offering, or IPO. The complaint alleges that the defendants breached fiduciary and other duties, were negligent, and were unjustly enriched because the IPO price of Blue Martini’s stock allegedly was set too low. The plaintiff seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief. The case was subsequently removed to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Blue Martini has joined in motions to dismiss filed by co-defendant Goldman Sachs. The complaint has not been served on the individual defendants, no discovery has been taken, and no trial date has been set. Similar complaints have been filed in California state courts against other public companies that conducted IPOs of their common stock in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The Company believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend against it vigorously.
 
On or about July 24, 2002, a complaint was filed against us in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Queens. The complaint, captioned Fresh Direct, Inc. v. Blue Martini Software, Inc. was filed by a customer that had licensed our products and engaged us to perform related services. The complaint asserts claims for breach of contract, breach of warranty, negligent misrepresentation, fraud, and unjust enrichment. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses and counterclaims and intends to pursue them vigorously.
 
We may be subject to additional legal proceedings and claims, asserted or unasserted, that are in the ordinary course of business. The outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted.

The Shares have not been registered and were issued in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.
 
In connection with the Merger, the Company also issued a warrant to purchase up to 140,432 shares of the Company’s common stock to Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) at an exercise price of $0.92 per share.

We issued the warrant in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. We received no net proceeds at the time of issuance of the warrant. The warrant expires in March of 2007.
