2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company has subsidiaries in Asia, Australia, Canada, Europe, and South Africa.

The accompanying condensed balance sheet as of March 31, 2007, which has been derived from audited financial statements, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive losses for the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, operating results and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 2007.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2006.

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation (FIN) 48, Accounting for Income Tax Uncertainties. FIN 48 defines the threshold for recognizing the benefits of tax return positions in the financial statements as “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the taxing authority. The recently issued literature also provides guidance on the de-recognition, measurement and classification of income tax uncertainties, along with any related interest and penalties. FIN 48 also includes guidance concerning accounting for income tax uncertainties in interim periods and increases the level of disclosures associated with any recorded income tax uncertainties. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Any differences between the amounts recognized in the statements of financial position prior to the adoption of FIN 48 and the amounts reported after adoption will be accounted for as a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to the beginning balance of retained earnings. The Company is currently in the process of determining the impact of adopting the provisions of FIN 48 on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 108, Materiality. The interpretations in SAB 108 are being issued to address diversity in practice in quantifying financial statement misstatements and the potential under current practice for the build up of improper amounts on the balance sheet. SAB 108 is effective for the first interim period of the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006. Adoption of SAB 108 during the first fiscal quarter of 2007 has had an immaterial effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 replaces the different definitions of fair value in the accounting literature with a single definition. It defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS 157 is effective for fair-value measurements already required or permitted by other standards for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently in the process of determining the impact of adopting the provisions of SFAS 157 on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In September 2006, the FASB issued statement No. SFAS 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability measured by the difference between the fair value of the plan assets and the benefit obligation. SFAS 158 also requires any unrecognized prior service costs and actuarial gains and losses to be recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Under SFAS 158, the Company will be required to initially recognize the funded status of its defined benefit postretirement plans and to provide additional required disclosures in the fourth quarter of 2007. The Company anticipates that adopting the provisions of SFAS 158 will not have a material effect on its financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (FAS 159). FAS 159 permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The provisions of FAS 159 become effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS 159 will not have a material effect on its financial statements.

Equity Compensation Plans

Warrants

Director share warrant plans: From 1995 to 2002, the Company’s predecessor maintained share warrant plans for the purpose of granting warrants to certain executive officers and to members of the Board of Directors. Shares granted under the director share warrant plans vest over four years and have a term of five years. No warrants were granted in any of the periods presented. Plan activity is as follows:

   216,500     $ 7.46

Exercisable at 3/31/2007

   140,000     $ 6.60
            

Warrant issued to service provider: In August 2004, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $6.60 to a service provider. The warrant was fully vested and exercisable upon issuance and expires in August 2010. The fair value of the warrant was determined using the Black-Scholes model with an expected volatility of 85%, a risk-free interest rate of 3.8%, expected life of 6 years, and expected dividend yield of zero. The Company recorded a charge to operations of $242,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2004 in connection with this warrant.

Stock Option Plans

The Company has several stockholder approved stock option plans under which it grants or has granted options to purchase shares of its common stock to employees. As of March 31, 2007, the Company had an aggregate of 12.6 million shares of its common stock reserved for issuance under its various equity plans approved by the stockholders, of which 8.1 million shares were subject to outstanding awards and 4.5 million shares were available for future grants.

Stock option plans prior to 2002 were established by ActivIdentity Europe S.A. (formerly known as ActivCard Europe S.A. and ActivCard S.A.) under the laws of France. Options granted under these plans vest over four years and have a maximum term of seven years. For these option plans, the Board of Directors established the exercise price as the weighted average closing price quoted on Nasdaq Europe during the twenty trading days prior to the date of grant. The difference between the grant price and the fair market value is being amortized over the options’ vesting period. The Company has made no grants under the stock options plans established prior to 2002 during any of the periods presented.

In August 2002, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2002 Stock Option Plan (2002 Plan) and reserved 8.6 million shares for issuance under the plan. Options granted under the 2002 Plan vest over four years and have a maximum term of 10 years. The Board of Directors established the exercise price as the closing price quoted on the NASDAQ Global Market on the date of grant.

In August 2004, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (2004 Plan). The 2004 Plan replaces the 2002 Plan with substantially the same terms as the 2002 Plan. The remaining share reserve from the 2002 Plan was transferred to the 2004 Plan. In addition to stock options, the 2004 Plan allows for the grant of restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, and cash awards. No grants may be made from stock option plans prior to the 2004 Plan.

In February 2007, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the 2004 Plan, increasing the number of shares reserved for issuance by 4.0 million shares.

The option plans prohibit residents of France employed by the Company from selling their shares prior to the fifth anniversary from the date of grant for options granted prior to 2000. For options granted in 2000 and later, the option plans prohibit residents of France employed by the Company from selling their shares prior to the fourth anniversary from the date of grant.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units

The Company’s Board of Directors has granted awards representing a total of 428,022 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units as of March 31, 2007 to the Company’s officers and directors pursuant to the 2004 Plan. 155,000 restricted stock units were granted to Board members and vest monthly over one to three years. 55,000 restricted stock units were granted to officers in 2004, one-third of which vest on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining vest in equal monthly installments over the following twenty-four months. 50,000 shares of restricted stock were sold to the Company’s new chief financial officer in 2006, one-fourth of which vested on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining vest in equal monthly installments over the following thirty-six months. The total compensation expense related to the restricted stock granted to the Company’s chief financial officer of $175,000 is being amortized over the vesting period.

In January 2007, the Company granted a total of 168,022 restricted stock units to the Company’s executive officers. The awards will vest with respect to each officer upon satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) such officer must remain employed with the Company for three years from the grant date, (ii) the Company’s stock price on the third anniversary of the grant date (the “Vesting Date”) and for the five trading days before and after the Vesting Date averages at least 115% of the stock price on the grant date and (iii) the Company’s stock price shall, during the three-year vesting period, have closed for 60 consecutive trading days at or above 130% of the stock price on the grant date. The number of units underlying each award will be increased by 50% if the Company achieves a specific targeted level of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and equity compensation expense (“EBITDA”) and will be reduced by 25% if the Company’s fiscal 2007 EBITDA is below a specified target. The Company is recording compensation expense for these awards on a straight-line basis over the three year vesting period assuming that a total of 252,033 units will ultimately be granted on the Vesting Date.

Adoption of SFAS 123(R)

On October 1, 2005, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123(R)) which establishes standards for the accounting of transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, primarily focusing on accounting for transactions where an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS No. 123(R) requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including stock options, based on the grant-date fair value of the award and to recognize such cost as compensation expense over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. SFAS 123(R) supersedes the Company’s previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) for periods beginning in fiscal 2006. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) relating to SFAS 123(R). The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS 123(R).

The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method, which requires the application of the accounting standard as of October 1, 2005, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year 2006. The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R).

SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based awards to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB 25 as allowed under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123). Under the intrinsic value method, no stock-based compensation expense had been recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations, other than as related to restricted stock units and option grants to employees and directors below the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period. As stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, this expense has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company’s estimated forfeiture rates differ for executive and non-executive employees and for employees located in France.

SFAS 123(R) requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options to be classified as financing cash flows. Due to the Company’s loss position, there were no such tax benefits during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007. Prior to the adoption of Statement SFAS 123(R) those benefits would have been reported as operating cash flows had the Company received any tax benefits related to stock option exercises.

The fair value of stock-based awards to employees is calculated using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model, even though this model was developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which differ significantly from the Company’s stock options. The Black-Scholes Merton model also requires subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values. The expected term of options granted is derived from historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S Treasury rates in effect during the corresponding period of grant. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price. These factors could change in the future, which would affect the stock-based compensation expense in future periods.

Valuation and Expense Information under SFAS 123(R)

The weighted-average fair value of stock-based compensation to employees is based on the single option valuation approach. Forfeitures are estimated and it is assumed no dividends will be declared. The estimated fair value of stock-based compensation awards to employees is amortized using the straight-line method over the vesting period of the options. Below are the ranges of assumptions used:

2002 Restructuring

In February 2002, the Company commenced a restructuring of its business to enhance operational efficiency and reduce expenses. The plan included reduction in workforce and excess facilities and other direct costs. Charges for the reduction in workforce consisted of severance, outplacement, and other termination costs. The charge for excess facilities was comprised primarily of future minimum lease payments payable over the remaining life of the lease ending February 2011, net of total estimated sublease income. Sublease income was estimated assuming then current market lease rates and vacancy periods. In June 2005, the Company subleased the excess facilities. The estimated remaining restructuring liability was increased by $87,000 in fiscal 2005 and $68,000 in fiscal 2006 due to changes in sublease assumptions. Cash payments for the remaining liability of $2.5 million as of March 31, 2007, for facility exit activities, will be made over the remaining life of the lease ending February 2011.

2004 Restructuring

In March 2004, the Company initiated a restructuring plan to reduce operating costs, streamline and consolidate operations, and reallocate resources. The plan included a reduction in workforce that resulted in the termination of 109 employees, closure of five facilities, and termination of a non-strategic project under an existing agreement.

Relating to the 2004 restructurings, the Company recorded a total charge of $3.8 million, consisting of $3.1 million for workforce reduction, $0.7 million for excess facilities, and $40,000 for the termination of the non-strategic project. The 109 terminated employees include 19 employees in sales and marketing, 63 in research and development, three in manufacturing and logistics, and 24 in general and administrative functions. Charges for the reduction in workforce consisted of severance, outplacement, and other termination costs. During the year ended September 30, 2006, the Company reduced the remaining liability by $13,000 related to higher than anticipated sublease income for the property in Canada. Cash payments for the remaining liability of $130,000 as of March 31, 2007 for facility exit activities will be made over the remaining life of the lease ending June 2008. Cash payments related to the workforce reduction were completed in fiscal year 2005.

2005 Restructuring

In April 2005, the Company implemented an organizational restructuring to eliminate 18 employees, of whom 11 were in sales and marketing, five in research and development, and two in general and administration functions and recorded a restructuring charge of $837,000 for severance, benefits and other costs related to the reduction. All employees have been terminated and the cash payments related to workforce reduction have been made.

In July 2005, following the announcement of the Protocom acquisition, the Company implemented an organizational restructuring to take advantage of the complementary operating models and infrastructures. The restructuring included the elimination of excess facilities in four locations and termination of 31 employees, of whom 15 were in sales and marketing, 15 in research and development, and one in general and administrative functions. The Company recorded a restructuring charge of $206,000 for excess facilities, related to vacating part of one facility in London and $1.1 million for workforce reduction, for a total of $1.3 million. Charges for the reduction in workforce consisted of severance, outplacement, and other termination costs. Sublease income for the vacated premises was estimated assuming then current market lease rates and vacancy periods. During 2006, the Company reduced the remaining liability for reduction in workforce by $10,000. When the final cash payments related to the facility exit costs were completed in fiscal year 2006 the facility exit costs were reduced by $39,000.

2006 Restructuring

In December 2005, the Company implemented an organizational restructuring to terminate 12 employees, of whom three were in sales and marketing, seven in research and development, and two in general and administrative functions, and recorded a restructuring charge of $532,000 for workforce reduction In January 2006, the Company recorded an additional restructuring charge of $148,000, which was increased during the quarter ended June 30, 2006 by approximately $31,000 when final cash severance payments were made. All terminated employees have left the Company. In January 2006, the Company vacated the remaining space of the facility in London and recorded a charge related to the remaining liability under the associated lease of $127,000 net of estimated sublease income. The Company reduced the remaining liability for facility exit costs by $39,000 when the cash payments related to the facility exit costs were completed in fiscal 2006.

11. Net Loss per Share

The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to determine basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

   $ (0.08 )   $ (0.18 )   $ (0.11 )   $ (0.37 )
                                

For the above periods, the Company had securities outstanding which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future, that were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share in the periods presented as their impact would have been anti-dilutive. At March 31, 2007 and 2006, approximately 6.3 million and 6.2 million potential common shares (prior to application of treasury method), respectively, consisting of options and warrants, are excluded from the determination of diluted net loss per share as the effect of such shares is anti-dilutive.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

In August 5, 2005, the Company acquired Protocom Development Systems Pty. Ltd (Protocom). for cash of $21.0 million, 1,650,000 shares of its common stock, and incurred direct acquisition related costs of $625,000, for a total initial consideration of $29.2 million. Concurrently with the closing of the Protocom acquisition, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Jason Hart, then Protocom’s chief executive officer, who now serves as the Company’s chief executive officer and a member of the board of directors. Pursuant to the acquisition agreement, the Company agreed to issue up to an additional 2,100,000 shares of its common stock to the former Protocom shareholders, including Mr. Hart, under an earn-out provision if Protocom achieved a revenue target between $13.6 million and $18.7 million during the one-year period ended June 30, 2006. If any portion of the earn-out is ultimately paid, Mr. Hart would have been entitled to receive approximately 68.7% of these additional payments. However, in May 2007, Mr. Hart irrevocably waived his right to receive 84% of his interest in any earn-out payments that might be made. Accordingly, the maximum number of shares covered by the earn-out is 887, 501. Based on the Company’s calculations of qualifying revenues that are credited to this earn-out right, it has concluded that the revenue targets have not been met and no additional consideration is owed. The Company notified the Protocom shareholder representative in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 that none of the additional consideration would be paid. The Protocom shareholder representative has objected to certain items in our calculation and has asserted that the Company breached certain covenants in accordance with the purchase agreement. Based on these objections and assertions, the Protocom shareholder representative has demanded that the full earn-out amount be paid and has

threatened to file suit against the Company. The Company has spoken with the Protocom shareholder representative to seek an acceptable resolution to this matter; as of the date of this filing the matter remained unresolved.

The Company records loss contingencies in accordance with FASB Statement of Accounting Number 5, “Accounting for Contingencies”. This Statement establishes standards of financial accounting and reporting for loss contingencies. No liability for this earn-out provision or threatened litigation has been recorded at March 31, 2007 or September 30, 2006 as management believes that any liability is neither probable nor reasonably estimable.

In the ordinary course of business, from time to time, the Company has been named as a defendant in legal actions arising from its normal business activities, which management believes will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into standard indemnification agreements with certain of its customers and business partners. These agreements include provisions for indemnifying the customer against any claim brought by a third-party to the extent any such claim alleges that an ActivIdentity product infringes a patent, copyright or trademark, or violates any other proprietary rights of that third-party. It is not possible to estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements. To date, the Company has not incurred any costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. No liability for these indemnification agreements has been recorded at March 31, 2007 or September 30, 2006.

As permitted under Delaware law, the Company has agreements indemnifying its executive officers and directors for certain events and occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving at the Company’s request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is not estimable. The Company maintains directors and officers liability insurance designed to enable it to recover a portion of any such future payments. No liability for these indemnification agreements has been recorded at March 31, 2007 or September 30, 2006.

Software revenue is comprised of sales of standard software and professional services associated with customization, installation and integration. The increase in software revenue in the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to increased demand for card management software as the market acceptance of smart card technology gains momentum.

Hardware revenue is comprised of tokens, readers, smart cards and related equipment. The increase in hardware revenue in the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year was due to an increase in sales of tokens and smartcards.

Maintenance revenue is comprised of software and hardware customer support agreements. The increase in maintenance and support revenue in the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year is primarily due to software licensing revenues and maintenance contract renewals from a growing installed base of customers.

North America revenue increased during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year, primarily as a result of a rebound in the U.S. Government market.

European revenues increased during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily as a result of an agreement entered into during the fourth quarter of 2006 to supply a European government department with our employee identification solutions. Additionally, maintenance revenue was higher during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year as a result of the continued growth in our installed base of customers.

Hardware and software revenue by customer type as a percentage of total hardware revenue and software revenue was as follows:

The decrease, as a percent of revenue, in the financial sector during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in prior year was primarily a result of lower sales of tokens to banks in Europe. The increase, as a percent of revenue, in the government sector during the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same period in prior year was primarily a result of a rebound from delays in the implementation of Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12), which mandates that all federal employees and contractors be given a common identification card, is now seeing a ramp-up in deployment activity. We are also seeing increased activity in the first responder market as well as government agencies in Europe. The decrease, as a percent of revenue, in the enterprise sector during the six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same period in prior year is primarily a result of enterprise revenue growing at a slower rate than total revenue.

Cost of software revenue includes costs associated with software duplication, packaging, documentation such as user manuals and CDs, royalties, logistics, operations, and professional services associated with customization, integration and installation services. The software margin improvement during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 from the same periods in the prior year resulted primarily from an increase in the sales of pure software.

 

17


Cost of hardware revenue includes costs associated with the manufacturing and shipping of hardware products, logistics, operations, and adjustments to reserves for warranty and inventory. Our smart card and reader revenues reflect products manufactured for us by original equipment manufacturers, and accordingly, have lower margins compared to tokens that are manufactured for us by contract manufacturers and which yield higher gross margins. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, hardware margins decreased compared to the same period in prior year due to the mix of products and an adjustment to inventory reserves. Hardware margins remained relatively constant during the six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Cost of maintenance and support revenue consists primarily of personnel costs and expenses incurred in providing telephonic support, on-site consulting services, and training services. Margins on maintenance and support revenue increased during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily due to a significant increase in revenue while related personnel expenses remained constant.

Amortization of acquired developed technology includes amortization of technology capitalized in our acquisitions and purchase of certain patents and related intellectual property from a third party. Amortization expense increased during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily as a result of the amortization of patents acquired during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006.

Operating expenses

A substantial proportion of our operating expenses are comprised of personnel costs, facilities, and associated information technology costs to support our personnel, which are generally fixed. Accordingly, a small variation in the timing of the recognition of revenue can cause significant variations in operating results from quarter to quarter.

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and other payroll expenses such as commissions and travel, depreciation, costs associated with marketing programs, promotions, trade shows, and allocations of facilities and information technology costs.

Sales and marketing expenses and period-over-period changes are as follows (dollars in thousands):

As a percentage of net revenue

     48 %     65 %     44 %     61 %

Headcount, end of period

     106       116      

The decrease in sales and marketing expenses during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year resulted principally from a decrease in sales and marketing personnel and related benefits expense, lower professional services expenses, lower travel expenses, lower marketing costs and lower corporate allocations, which were partially offset by higher sales commissions.

Research and development

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, costs of components used in research and development activities, travel, depreciation, and an allocation of facilities and information technology costs. The focus of our research and development efforts is to bring new products, as well as new versions of existing products, to market, in order to address customer demand as well as provide ongoing support to existing products.

Research and development expenses and period-over-period changes are as follows (dollars in thousands):

The increase in research and development expenses during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to increased headcount and temporary contract workforce. The increase in headcount was required to support and develop the existing software portfolio as well as develop new and enhanced versions of our existing portfolio.

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs for administration, finance, human resources, and legal, as well as professional fees related to legal, audit and accounting, costs associated with Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance, and an allocation of facilities and information technology costs.

General and administrative expenses decreased during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in the prior year mainly due to a decrease in accounting, audit and other professional services fees, a decrease in bad debt expense, a decrease in stock-based compensation and lower travel expenses.

Restructuring expenses

Restructuring expenses consist of severance and other costs associated with the reduction of headcount and facility exit costs, consisting primarily of future minimum lease payments net of estimated sub-lease income. Restructuring expenses and period-over-period changes are as follows (dollars in thousands):

During the three and six months ended March 31, 2007, we recorded no restructuring expenses compared to $262,000 and $794,000 recorded in the same respective periods in the prior year. As part of the fiscal 2006 restructuring, we terminated the employment of 12 employees, of whom three were in sales and marketing, seven in research and development and two in general and administrative functions.

Though we do not expect to incur any significant additional charges related to our previous restructurings, a change in the estimated sublease income from, or time required to sublease our exited facilities, or any other changes could result in future charges to our statement of operations.

Amortization of acquired intangible assets

Amortization of acquired intangible assets includes amortization of customer relationships, trademark, and trade name intangibles capitalized in acquisitions. Amortization of acquired intangibles and period-over-period changes are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Amortization decreased during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to intangible assets related to the acquisition of Aspace Solutions Limited becoming fully amortized during the 2006 fiscal year.

Interest income (expenses)

Interest income (expense) consists of interest income on our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments and gains or losses on foreign exchange transactions and investments. Interest income and period-over-period changes are as follows (dollars in thousands):

 

     Three Months Ended

Interest income, net, increased during the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same periods in prior year was primarily due to our ability to shift investments into shorter maturities which were yielding higher returns. While our short-term investment balances have decreased from December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2006, we have earned a higher average yield on our short-term investment portfolio.

     3 %     -2 %     5 %     -4 %

During the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 foreign exchange gains increased compared to losses during the same periods in the prior year. The fluctuation is mainly due to lower U.S dollar against European currencies, especially the British Pound during the first half of 2007.

Income taxes

Income taxes in all periods represent minimum taxes payable in various U.S. jurisdictions and income taxes payable in foreign jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate as we have recorded a 100% valuation allowance related to our deferred tax assets as we do not currently consider the generation of taxable income to realize their benefits to be more likely than not.

Minority interest

Minority interest represents the minority interest share in the consolidated net income or loss of ActivIdentity Europe S.A.

Liquidity and capital resources

The following sections discuss the effect of changes in our balance sheet and cash flows and contractual obligations on our liquidity and capital resources.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flows

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-term investments. The following table summarizes our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments (dollars in thousands):

   $ 130,682    $ 128,047    $ 2,635  
                      

As of March 31, 2007, we had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $130.7 million, an increase of $2.6 million from September 30, 2006.

Cash generated from operating activities was $4.0 million during the six months ended March 31, 2007 compared to a use of $14.0 million during the comparable period in the prior year. In the six months ended March 31, 2007, our net loss was $4.8 million, including non-cash charges totaling $3.5 million, primarily related to depreciation and amortization as well as employee stock-based compensation. Contributing to the generation of cash were a decrease in accounts receivable of $5.7 million, and an increase in accounts payable of $2.0 million. The decrease in accounts receivable was primarily the result of strong first quarter 2007 collections on revenue earned during the fourth quarter of 2006, which is a seasonally strong quarter. The strong first quarter 2007 collections were partially offset by an expected slow-down in customer payments received during the second quarter of 2007 coupled with increased sales. During the six months ended March 31, 2007, accounts receivable generated $5.7 million of operating cash compared to a use of $3.5 million during the same period a year ago, an increase of $9.2 million. A decrease in deferred revenue partially offset these increases. During the six months ended March 31, 2007, deferred revenue used $1.0 million in operating cash compared to the same period a year ago when deferred revenue generated $2.0 million in operating cash, a decrease of $3.0 million.

During the six months ended March 31, 2006, our net loss was $16.9 million, including non-cash charges totaling $4.6 million, primarily related to depreciation and amortization as well as employee stock-based compensation. Contributing to the use of operating cash was an increase in accounts receivable of $3.5 million, and a decrease in accrued liabilities of $2.8 million. Offsetting these uses of operating cash was an increase in cash resulting from a $2.0 million increase in deferred revenue from advance payments received from customers, and a $1.7 million increase in accounts payable as a result of strong cash and vendor management. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily a result of a quarterly royalty payment that typically is received prior to quarter end but which was outstanding at March 31, 2006. The payment was received subsequent to quarter-end. The remainder of the increase in accounts receivable was due to an increase in days sales outstanding during the second quarter of 2006 as relatively large portion of our sales were earned during the latter part of the quarter and not collected. The $2.8 million decrease in accrued liabilities was primarily a result of a $1.2 million reduction in accrued compensation, $0.7 million reduction in restructuring accruals and a $0.9 million reduction in other current liabilities.

Investing activities in the six months ended March 31, 2007 generated net cash of $1.0 million from the proceeds of sales or maturities of short-term investments of $67.0 million offset by use of cash of $64.8 million for the purchases of short-term investment and $1.2 million for capital expenditures.

Investing activities generated net cash of $10.4 million in the six months ended March 31, 2006 primarily from the proceeds of sales or maturities of short-term investments of $66.6 million offset by use of cash of $54.8 million for the purchases of short-term investments, $0.7 million for acquisition related activities and $0.5 million for capital expenditures.

Financing activities provided nominal cash in both the six months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 and essentially consisted of cash received from the exercise of stock options.

We believe that our cash and cash equivalent and short-term investments will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business,

we evaluate potential acquisitions of business, products, or technologies. A portion of our cash may be used to acquire or invest in businesses or products or to obtain the right to use complementary technologies.

Operating leases include amounts related to non-cancelable operating leases that are included in the charge for restructuring expenses exclusive of expected sublease income of $1,249,000. Of the $1,249,000, $890,000 relates to our U.S. facility sublease through December 2010 and $359,000 relates to our Canadian facility sublease through June 2008.

In August 5, 2005, the Company acquired Protocom Development Systems Pty. Ltd (Protocom). for cash of $21.0 million, 1,650,000 shares of its common stock, and incurred direct acquisition related costs of $625,000, for a total initial consideration of $29.2 million. Concurrently with the closing of the Protocom acquisition, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Jason Hart, then Protocom’s chief executive officer, who now serves as the Company’s chief executive officer and a member of the board of directors. Pursuant to the acquisition agreement, the Company agreed to issue up to an additional 2,100,000 shares of its common stock to the former Protocom shareholders, including Mr. Hart, under an earn-out provision if Protocom achieved a revenue target between $13.6 million and $18.7 million during the one-year period ended June 30, 2006. If any portion of the earn-out is ultimately paid, Mr. Hart would have been entitled to receive approximately 68.7% of these additional payments. However, in May 2007, Mr. Hart irrevocably waived his right to receive 84% of his interest in any earn-out payments that may be made. Accordingly, the maximum number of shares covered by the earn-out is 887,501. Based on the Company’s calculations of qualifying revenues that are credited to this earn-out right, it has concluded that the revenue targets have not been met and no additional consideration is owed. The Company notified the Protocom shareholder representative in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 that none of the additional consideration would be paid. The Protocom shareholder representative has objected to certain items in our calculation and has asserted that the Company breached certain covenants in accordance with the purchase agreement. Based on these objections and assertions, the Protocom shareholder representative has demanded that the full earn-out amount be paid and has threatened to file suit against the Company. The Company has spoken with the Protocom shareholder representative to seek an acceptable resolution to this matter; as of the date of this filing the matter remained unresolved.

The Company records loss contingencies in accordance with FASB Statement of accounting Number 5 “Accounting for Contingencies”. This statement establishes standards of financial accounting and reporting for loss contingencies. No liability for this earn-out provision or threatened litigation has been recorded at March 31, 2007 or September 30, 2006 as management believes that any liability is neither probable nor reasonably estimable.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation (FIN) 48, Accounting for Income Tax Uncertainties. FIN 48 defines the threshold for recognizing the benefits of tax return positions in the financial statements as “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the taxing authority. The recently issued literature also provides guidance on the de-recognition, measurement and classification of income tax uncertainties, along with any related interest and penalties. FIN 48 also includes guidance concerning accounting for income tax uncertainties in interim periods and increases the level of disclosures associated with any recorded income tax uncertainties. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Any differences between the amounts recognized in the statements of financial position prior to the adoption of FIN 48 and the amounts reported after adoption will be accounted for as a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to the beginning balance of retained earnings. The Company is currently in the process of determining the impact of adopting the provisions of FIN 48 on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 108, Materiality. The interpretations in SAB 108 are being issued to address diversity in practice in quantifying financial statement misstatements and the potential under current practice for the build up of improper amounts on the balance sheet. SAB 108 is effective for the first interim period of the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006. Adoption of SAB 108 during the first fiscal quarter of 2007 has had an immaterial effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 replaces the different definitions of fair value in the accounting literature with a single definition. It defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS 157 is effective for fair-value measurements already required or permitted by other standards for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently in the process of determining the impact of adopting the provisions of SFAS 157 on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In September 2006, the FASB issued statement No. SFAS 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability measured by the difference between the fair value of the plan assets and the benefit obligation. SFAS 158 also requires any unrecognized prior service costs and actuarial gains and losses to be recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Under SFAS 158, the Company will be required to initially recognize the funded status of its defined benefit postretirement plans and to provide additional required disclosures in the fourth quarter of 2007. The Company anticipates that adopting the provisions of SFAS 158 will not have a material effect on its financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (FAS 159). FAS 159 permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The provisions of FAS 159 become effective as of the beginning of our 2009 fiscal year. We cannot estimate the impact, if any, which SFAS 159 will have on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The above discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We believe there are several accounting policies that are critical to understanding our consolidated financial statements, as these policies affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses and involve management’s judgment regarding significant estimates. We have reviewed our critical accounting policies and their application in the preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures with our Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are described below.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, as set forth in American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, Revenue Recognition, Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables and EITF 03-05 Applicability of AICPA Statement of Position 97-2 to Non-Software Deliverables in an Arrangement Containing More-Than-Incidental Software. The application of the appropriate accounting principle to our revenue is dependent upon the specific transaction and whether the sale includes hardware products, software products, post contract customer support (PCS), other services, or a combination of these items.

Subject to the conditions described below, revenue is not recognized until: (1) evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the fee is fixed or determinable; (3) no significant obligations remain; and (4) collection of the corresponding receivable is reasonably assured.

For multiple element arrangements that contain one or more deliverables for which the functionality is not dependent on the software, the arrangement fee is allocated between the “non-software” and software deliverables in accordance with EITF 00-21 if the following criteria are met:

 

   

The delivered item has stand alone value;

 

   

There is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered elements as demonstrated by vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) or third party evidence; and

 

   

If the arrangement includes a general return right relative to the delivered item, delivery or performance of the undelivered item is considered probable and substantially in the control of the vendor.

If the above criteria are met, we allocate the arrangement fee to the delivered items using the residual value method. Revenue for the elements whose functionality is not dependent upon the delivered software is recognized in accordance with SAB 104, and revenue for software elements is recognized in accordance with SOP 97-2. If the above criteria are not met, all deliverables are considered a single unit of accounting and revenue is normally recognized in accordance with SOP 97-2.

For the deliverables subject to SOP 97-2, as amended by SOP 98-9, the arrangement fee is allocated among each element, based on vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of each element if vendor-specific objective evidence of each element exists. We determine VSOE of an element based on the price charged when the same element is sold separately. For an element not yet sold separately, VSOE is established by management having the relevant authority as long as it is probable that the price, once established, will not change before separate introduction of the element in the marketplace. When arrangements contain multiple elements and VSOE exists for all undelivered elements, we recognize revenue for the delivered elements based on the residual value method. For arrangements containing multiple elements wherein VSOE does not exist for all undelivered elements, revenue for the delivered and undelivered elements is deferred until VSOE exists or all elements have been delivered. Additionally, where VSOE for undelivered elements does not exist and where the only undelivered element is PCS, revenue for the delivered and undelivered elements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the PCS contract.

From time-to-time, we have provided certain of our customers acceptance rights, which give the customer the right to accept or reject the software after it has been delivered, for customized or significantly modified software products developed under product development agreements, and on occasion, for hardware products and client/server software products. In instances where an acceptance clause exists, no revenue is recognized until the product is formally accepted by the customer or the acceptance period has expired.

Service revenue includes revenue from training, installation and consulting. From time-to-time, we develop and license software to customers that requires some customization, modification or production. Where the services are essential to the functionality of the software element of the arrangement and separate accounting for the services is not permitted, contract accounting is applied to both the software and service elements. For these projects, revenue is recognized in accordance with SOP 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts, typically on a percentage-of-completion basis as evidenced by labor hours incurred to estimated total labor hours. Amounts billed in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as deferred revenue in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Unbilled work-in-process is recorded as a receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Service revenue is recognized separately from the software element when the services are performed if VSOE exists to allocate the revenue to the various elements in a multi-element arrangement, the services are not essential to the functionality of any other element of the arrangement, and the total price of the contract would vary with the inclusion or exclusion of the services.

PCS contracts are typically priced as a percentage of the product license fee and generally have a one-year term. Services provided to customers under PCS contracts include technical product support and unspecified product upgrades. Revenues from advance payments for PCS contracts are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.

Even though delivery of PCS and services has started, if all of the criteria in SOP 97-2 for revenue recognition are not met, PCS and service revenue recognition may not commence. At the time all the criteria in SOP 97-2 are met, the portion of the deferred amount based on the proportion of the service period that has already expired to the total service period is immediately recognized and the residual amount is recognized ratably over the remaining PCS service period.

Revenue from stand alone product sales is recognized upon shipment (unless shipping terms determine otherwise) to resellers, distributors and other indirect channels, net of estimated returns or estimated future price changes. Our policy is not to ship product to a reseller or distributor unless the reseller or distributor has a history of selling the products or the end user is known and has been qualified by us. In certain specific and limited circumstances, we provide product return and price protection rights to certain distributors and resellers. We have established a reasonable basis through historical experience for estimating future returns and price changes. Actual returns and price protection claims have not been material to date.

Loss Contingencies

The Company records loss contingencies in accordance with FASB Statement of Accounting number 5, “Accounting for contingencies”. This Statement establishes standards of financial accounting and reporting for loss contingencies. It requires accrual by a charge to income (and disclosure) for an estimated loss from a loss contingency if two conditions are met: (a) information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that an asset had been impaired or a liability had been incurred at the date of the financial statements, and (b) the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Accruals for general or unspecified business risks (“reserves for general contingencies”) are no longer permitted. As it pertains to the dispute relating to the Protocom earn-out revenue calculation, the company has no estimated charge in its current period financial statements as it has determined that a charge is neither probable that a liability has been incurred, nor can such a charge be estimated at the time of issuance of these financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various assumptions that we believe are reasonable under current circumstances. However, future events are subject to change and estimates and judgments routinely require adjustments, therefore actual results could differ from our current estimates. Significant estimates made in the accompanying financial statements are:

 

   

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based on account aging, historical bad debt experience, and customer creditworthiness. Changes in the allowance are included as a component of general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations. If actual collections differ significantly from our estimates, it may result in a decrease or increase in our general and administrative expenses.

 

   

Inventory Valuation – We provide for slow moving and obsolete inventories based on historical experience and forecast of product demands. A change in the value of the inventory is included as a component of cost of hardware revenue. If sales of inventory on-hand are less than our current projections or if there is a change in technology making our current inventory obsolete, we may be required to record additional charges adversely affecting our margins and results of operations.

 

   

Long-lived Assets – We perform an annual review of the valuation of long-lived assets, including property and equipment. We also assess the recoverability of long-lived assets on an interim basis whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable based on an analysis of estimated expected future undiscounted net cash flows to be generated by the assets over their estimated useful lives. If the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows are insufficient to recover the carrying value of the assets over their estimated useful lives, we record an impairment charge in the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds their fair value. Should conditions prove to be different than management’s current assessment, material write-downs of long-lived assets may be required, adversely affecting our results of operations.

 

   

Other Intangible Assets – We generally record intangible assets when we acquire companies. The cost of the acquisition is allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired, including identifiable intangible assets. Certain identifiable intangible assets such as purchased technology, customer lists, trademarks, and trade names are amortized over time, while in-process research and development is recorded as a charge on the date of acquisition. Accordingly, the allocation of the acquisition cost to identifiable intangible assets has a significant impact on our future operating results. The allocation process requires extensive use of estimates and assumptions, including estimates of future cash flows expected to be generated by the acquired assets. When we conduct our annual evaluation of other intangible assets as of December 1, or if in the interim impairment indicators are identified with respect to other intangible assets, the fair value of other intangible assets is re-assessed using valuation techniques that require significant management judgment. Should conditions prove to be different than our original assessment, material write-downs of the fair value of intangible assets may be required. We recorded such impairments in fiscal 2005 and 2004. We periodically review the estimated remaining useful lives of our other intangible assets. A reduction in the estimate of remaining useful life could result in accelerated amortization or an impairment charge in future periods and may adversely affect our results of operations.

 

   

Goodwill—Under current accounting guidelines, we periodically assess goodwill for impairment. Accordingly, goodwill recorded in business combinations may significantly affect our future operating results to the extent impaired, but the magnitude and timing of any such impairment is uncertain. When we conduct our annual evaluation of goodwill as of December 1, or if impairment indicators are identified in the interim with respect to goodwill, the fair value of goodwill is re-assessed using valuation techniques that require significant management judgment. The key judgments used include analysis of future cash flow which management believes to be an important factor in determination of the fair value of the Company’s sole reporting unit. This analysis takes into consideration certain revenue growth and operating expense forecasts. Should conditions be different than our last assessment, significant write-downs of goodwill may be required which will adversely affect our results of operations. We recorded a goodwill impairment charge in fiscal 2005. If the enterprise value at a future date is lower than the enterprise value as of our last impairment evaluation date of December 1, 2006, the test could result in an impairment of goodwill charge.

 

   

Restructuring Expense – In connection with our 2006, 2005, 2004, and 2002 restructurings, we accrued restructuring liabilities associated with costs of employee terminations, vacating facilities, write-off of assets that will no longer be used in operations, and costs for a terminated project based on estimates. Accrual of costs associated with terminations requires us to estimate severance payments. Recording of costs associated with vacating facilities require us to estimate future sub-lease income. If the actual future severance or lease payments, net of any sub-lease income, differ from our estimates, it may result in an increase or decrease in our restructuring charge, and could adversely affect our results of operations. We have recorded additional charges associated with the change in our estimates for future sublease income in fiscal 2006 and 2005.

 

   

Hardware Sales Warranty Reserve – We accrue expenses associated with potential warranty claims at the time of sale, based on warranty terms and historical experience. The warranty we provide is in excess of warranty coverage provided by our product assembly contractors. The Company’s standard warranty period is ninety days for software products and one year for hardware products. Changes in the warranty reserve are included as a component of cost of hardware revenue. If actual returns under warranty differ significantly from our estimates, it may result in a decrease or increase in our cost of hardware revenue.

 

23


   

Provision for Income Taxes – The provision for income taxes includes taxes currently payable and changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. We record deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. If we do not generate sufficient taxable income, the realization of deferred tax assets could be impaired resulting in additional income tax expense. As a result, we record a valuation allowance to reduce net deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be recognized. Deferred tax assets are principally the result of the tax benefit of disqualifying dispositions of stock options and net operating loss carry-forwards. We have established a valuation allowance to fully reserve these deferred tax assets due to uncertainty regarding their realization.

 

   

Upon adoption of SFAS 123(R) on October 1, 2005, we began estimating the value of employee stock options on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Merton model. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the value of each employee stock option was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Merton model for the purpose of the pro forma financial disclosure in accordance with SFAS 123. The determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The expected term of options granted is derived from historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our stock price.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Exchange rate sensitivity

We are exposed to currency exchange fluctuations as we sell our products and incur expenses internationally, principally in euros, British pounds and Australian dollars. A natural hedge exists in some local currencies, as local currency denominated revenue offsets some of the local currency denominated operating expenses.

During both the three and six months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, approximately half of total sales were invoiced in U.S. dollars. Although we purchase many of our components in U.S. dollars, approximately half of our expenses are denominated in other currencies, including the Australian dollar, British pound, Canadian dollar, Euro, Japanese yen, Singapore dollar, and South African rand.

Interest rate sensitivity

We are exposed to interest rate risk as a result of our significant cash and cash equivalent and short-term investments. The rate of return that we may be able to obtain on investment securities will depend on market conditions at the time we make these investments and may differ from the rates we have secured in the past.

At March 31, 2007, we held $16.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and $114.6 million in short-term investments for a total of $130.6 million. Our cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash and money-market funds and our short-term investments are primarily comprised of government and government agency securities. Based on our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at March 31, 2007, a hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would increase/decrease our annual interest income by approximately $700,000.

 

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management including its Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial disclosure.

The Company’s CEO and CFO evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) during and as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that as of March 31, 2006 and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2007, the disclosure controls and procedures were operating effectively.

(b) There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our quarter ended March 31, 2007 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1: Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are involved in disputes or regulatory inquiries that arise in the ordinary course of business. Any claims or regulatory actions against us, whether valid or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, require significant amounts of management time, and result in the diversion of significant operational resources. For information regarding potential relating to our acquisition of Protocom, please refer to Note 12 in the accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

ITEM 1A: Risk Factors

Risk Factors That May Affect Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Set forth below are certain risks and uncertainties that could affect our business, financial condition, operating results, and/or stock price. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem less significant also may impair our business operations.

We have a history of losses and we expect to experience losses in the foreseeable future.

We have not achieved profitability and we may incur losses for the foreseeable future. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, our net loss was $3.5 million and in fiscal 2006 we incurred losses of approximately $22.5 million. As of March 31, 2007, our accumulated deficit was $242.1 million representing our net losses since inception. Although our cash balance is sizable, it may not last long enough for our operations to become profitable.

We will need to achieve significant incremental revenue growth and manage our costs to achieve profitability. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. It is possible that our revenue will grow more slowly than we anticipate or that operating expenses will grow.

We are involved in a dispute with certain former shareholders of Protocom. If this dispute continues, it may distract management and be costly to resolve.

On August 5, 2005, we acquired Protocom Development Systems Pty. Ltd (Protocom) for total initial consideration of $29.2 million in cash and common stock. Pursuant to the acquisition agreement, we agreed to issue up to an additional 2,100,000 shares of our common stock to the former Protocom shareholders under an earn-out provision if Protocom achieved a revenue target of between $13.6 million and $18.7 million during the one-year period ended June 30, 2006. Based on our calculations of qualifying revenues that are credited to this earn-out right, we concluded that the revenue targets were not met and that no additional consideration is owed. We notified the Protocom shareholder representative in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 that none of the additional consideration would be paid.

 

25


The Protocom shareholder representative has objected to certain items in our calculation and has also recently asserted that we have breached certain covenants contained in the acquisition agreement relating to the conduct of our operations during the earn-out period. As a result of these alleged breaches, the Protocom shareholder representative has demanded payment of the full earn-out amount. Subsequently, Mr. Hart granted an irrevocable waiver of his right to receive approximately 84% of his interest in the earnout, thereby bringing the total amount of the earn-out that is potentially in dispute to 887,501 shares. We have proposed to refer the matter to an independent auditor for resolution as set forth in the agreement, however, the Protocom shareholder representative has recently threatened to litigate the dispute. This dispute has consumed management time and attention and, if this matter is litigated, this litigation would further distract management and be costly to the Company. Additionally, if any portion of the earn-out is ultimately paid, the issuance of common stock would be dilutive to our stockholders and would lead to recording of goodwill that is subject to impairment testing on a regular basis and can result in potential periodic impairment charges which could be substantial.

Our cost-reduction initiatives may not result in the anticipated savings or more efficient operations and may harm our long-term viability.

Over the past several years, we have implemented extensive cost cutting measures and have incurred significant restructuring charges as we have attempted to streamline operations, improve efficiency, and reduce costs. Although we believe that it has been necessary to reduce the size and cost of our operations to improve our performance, the reduction in our operations may make it more difficult to develop and market new products and to compete successfully with other companies in our industry. In addition, many of the employees who have been terminated as part of our restructuring activities possessed specific knowledge or expertise that may prove to have been important to our operations and their absence may create significant difficulties. These efforts may not result in anticipated cost savings, making it difficult for us to achieve profitability. These cost reduction initiatives may also preclude us from making complementary acquisitions and/or other potentially significant expenditures that could improve our product offerings, competitiveness or long-term prospects.

We derive revenue from only a limited number of products and we do not have a diversified product base.

Substantially all of our revenue is derived from the sale of our digital identity systems and products. We anticipate that substantially all of our future revenue, if any, will also be derived from these products. If for any reason our sale of these products is impeded, and we have not diversified our product offerings, our business and results of operations could be harmed. We have reduced our product offerings as part of our prior restructuring initiatives to focus on just our core products and we do not expect to diversify our product offerings in the foreseeable future. By limiting our product offerings in the future, we will likely increase the risks associated with not having a more diversified product base.

Our customer base is highly concentrated and the loss of any one of these customers or delay in anticipated orders could adversely affect our business.

Our customers consist primarily of medium to large enterprises, system integrators, resellers, distributors, and original equipment manufacturers. Historically, we have experienced a concentration of revenue through certain of our channel partners to customers and in fiscal 2006 there was a high concentration of revenue through a number of system integrators to the U.S. and international government agencies. Many of our contracts with our significant channel partners are short-term. Two customers each accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to one customer in the same period in the prior year. Additionally, due to uncertainties surrounding Homeland Security Presidential Directive #12, the revenue generated by our U.S government business declined during fiscal 2005, 2006 but increased during the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Government business has been difficult to forecast. The government business recovered somewhat during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 and accounted for 29% of revenue in fiscal year 2006. During the first six months of fiscal 2007, government business continued to account for approximately 29% of revenue. We expect future potential revenue variability in this sector for the aforementioned reasons.

If we lose any of the above or other significant customers or if any of our significant channel partners do not renew their contract upon expiration, or if there are further delays in orders from the U.S. government, it could adversely affect our business and operating results. We expect to continue to depend upon a small number of large customers for a substantial portion of our revenue.

Our quarterly gross and net margins are difficult to predict, and if we miss quarterly financial expectations, our stock price could decline.

Our quarterly revenue, expense levels and operating results are difficult to predict and fluctuate from quarter to quarter. It is likely that our operating results in some periods will be below investor expectations. If this happens, the market price of our common stock is likely to decline. Fluctuations in our future quarterly operating results may be caused by many factors, including:

 

   

The size and timing of customer orders, which are received unevenly and unpredictably throughout a fiscal year and may be subject to seasonality relating to the U.S. federal government’s fiscal year and related spending patterns;

 

   

The mix of products licensed and types of license agreements;

 

   

The effect of generally accepted accounting principles on the timing of revenue recognition;

 

   

The timing of customer payments;

 

   

The size and timing of revenue recognized in advance of actual customer billings and customers with installment payment schedules that may result in higher accounts receivable balances; and

 

   

The relative mix of our license and services revenue.

We have a long and often complicated sales cycle, which can result in significant revenue fluctuations from quarter to quarter.

The sales cycle for our products is typically long and subject to a number of significant risks over which we have little control. The typical sales cycle is six to nine months for an enterprise customer and over twelve months for a network service provider or government. As our operating expenses are based on anticipated revenue levels, a small fluctuation in the timing of sales can cause our operating results to vary significantly from period to period. If revenue falls significantly below anticipated levels, our business would be negatively impacted.

Purchasing decisions for our products and systems may be subject to delay due to many factors that are outside of our control, such as:

 

   

Political and economic uncertainties;

 

   

Time required for a prospective customer to recognize the need for our products;

 

   

Time and complexity for us to assess and determine a prospective customer’s IT environment;

 

   

Significant expense of digital identity products and network systems;

 

   

Customer’s requirement for customized features and functionalities;

 

26


   

Turnover of key personnel at existing and prospective customers;

 

   

Customer’s internal budgeting process; and

 

   

Customer’s internal procedures for the approval of large purchases.

Furthermore, the implementation process is subject to delays resulting from concerns associated with incorporating new technologies into existing networks, deployment of a new network system or preservation of existing network infrastructure and data migration to the new system. Full deployment of our technology and products for such networks, servers, or other host systems can be scheduled to occur over an extended period and the licensing of systems and products, including client and server software, smart cards, readers, and tokens, and the recognition of maintenance revenues would also occur over this period, thereby negatively impacting the results of our operations in the near term, resulting in unanticipated fluctuations from quarter to quarter.

The market for our products is still developing and if the industry adopts standards or a platform different from our platform, then our competitive position would be negatively affected.

The market for digital identity products is still emerging and is also experiencing consolidation. The evolution of the market is in a constant state of flux that may result in the development of different network computing platforms and industry standards that are not compatible with our current products or technologies.

We believe that smart cards are an emerging platform for providing digital identity for network applications and services. Our business model is premised on the smart card becoming a common access platform for network computing in the future. Further, we have focused on developing our products for certain operating systems related to smart card deployment and use. Should platforms or form factors other than the smart card emerge as a preferred platform or should operating systems other than the specific systems we have focused on emerge as preferred operating systems such as the Microsoft’s recent introduction of Windows Vista, our current product offerings could be at a disadvantage. If this were to occur, our future growth and operating results could be negatively affected. The acquisitions of RSA Security, Inc. by EMC Corporation and Alacris by Microsoft are expected to create a more difficult competitive environment for us and may result in the broader adoption of their platforms and systems, which compete with ours.

In addition, the digital identity market lacks industry-wide standards. While we are actively engaged in discussions with industry peers to define what these standards should be, it is possible that any standards eventually adopted could prove disadvantageous to or incompatible with our business model and product lines. Uncertainty surrounding the Homeland Security Presidential Directive #12 may affect sales of our products to government agencies. If our products do not comply with the requirements of Homeland Security Presidential Directive #12, we may not be able to sell to agencies that must comply with this Directive.

We rely on strategic relationships with other companies to develop and market our products. If we are unable to enter into additional relationships, or if we lose an existing relationship, our business could be harmed.

Our success depends on establishing and maintaining strategic relationships with other companies to develop, market, and distribute our technology and products and, in some cases, to incorporate our technology into their products. Part of our business strategy has been to enter into strategic alliances and other cooperative arrangements with other companies in the industry. We are currently involved in cooperative efforts to incorporate our products into the products of others, to jointly engage in research and development efforts, and to jointly engage in marketing efforts and reseller arrangements. To date, none of these relationships is exclusive, and some of our strategic partners have cooperative relationships with certain of our competitors.

If we are unable to enter into cooperative arrangements in the future or if we lose any of our current strategic or cooperative relationships, our business could be adversely affected. We do not control the time and resources devoted to such activities by parties with whom we have relationships. In addition, we may not have the resources available to satisfy our commitments, which may adversely affect these relationships. These relationships may not continue, may not be commercially successful, or may require the expenditure of significant financial, personnel, and administrative resources from time to time. Further, certain of our products and services compete with the products and services of our strategic partners, which may adversely affect our relationships with these partners, which could adversely affect our business.

If the members of our management team are unable to work together effectively or if there is additional turnover in senior management, our ability to manage and expand our business will suffer.

We have suffered employee attrition in key positions and our management team has changed significantly in the past 18 months. In February 2006, we appointed Mark Lustig as our Chief Financial Officer to replace Ragu Bhargava, our former Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer who resigned in December 2005. Also, in February 2006 we appointed Jason Hart, our former Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing, as our Chief Executive Officer to replace Ben C. Barnes, our former Chief Executive Officer, who resigned in February 2006. At the same time, Thomas Jahn, our former Chief Restructuring and Integration Officer, was appointed as our Chief Operating Officer. Since then, we have replaced our Controller and we have struggled with personnel matters in one of our foreign locations. As a result, we face challenges in running certain key areas of operations, including financial reporting and accounting. If the new key employees we have recently hired and other members of our senior management team cannot work together effectively, or if other members of our senior management team resign, our ability to manage our business may suffer.

Employee turnover could adversely impact our revenues, costs and productivity.

As employees leave ActivIdentity, we suffer loss of productivity while new employees are hired or promoted into vacant positions. The departure of highly skilled employees sometimes results in a loss of talent or knowledge that is difficult to replace. There are also costs of recruiting and relocating new employees. For example, the recruiting market for experienced operations personnel is very competitive and we may be limited in our ability to attract and retain key operations talent. New employees must learn the ActivIdentity organization, products and procedures. All of this takes time, reduces productivity and increases cost. The potential adverse impact of employee turnover is greater for situations involving senior positions in the company. Turnover rates tend to increase as economic conditions improve. If turnover increases, the adverse impact of turnover could materially affect our costs, productivity or ability respond quickly to the competitive environment.

We may be adversely affected by operating in international markets.

Our international operations subject us to risks associated with operating in foreign markets, including fluctuations in currency exchange rates that could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. International sales and expenses make up a substantial portion of our business. A severe economic decline in one of our major foreign markets could make it difficult for our customers to pay us on a timely basis. Any such failure to pay, or deferral of payment, could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. During the six months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, markets outside of North America accounted for 55% and 61%, respectively, of total revenue.

 

27


We face a number of additional risks inherent in doing business in international markets, including among others:

 

   

Unexpected changes in regulatory requirements;

 

   

Potentially adverse tax consequences;

 

   

Export controls relating to encryption technology;

 

   

Tariffs and other trade barriers;

 

   

Difficulties in staffing and managing international operations;

 

   

Laws that restrict our ability, and make it costly to reduce our workforce;

 

   

Changing economic or political conditions;

 

   

Exposures to different legal standards;

 

   

Burden of complying with a variety of laws and legal systems;

 

   

Statutorily mandated costs associated with headcount actions;

 

   

Fluctuations in currency exchange rates; and

 

   

Seasonal reductions in business activity during the summer months in Europe as well as other parts of the world.

While we prepare our financial statements in U.S. Dollars, we have historically incurred a significant portion of our expenses in Euros and in British Pounds. We expect that a significant portion of our expenses will be incurred in Euros, British Pound and in the Australian Dollar, as well as in other currencies, although to a lesser extent. Fluctuations in the value of these currencies relative to the U.S. Dollar have caused and will continue to cause dollar-translated amounts to vary from period-to-period. Due to the constantly changing currency exposures and the substantial volatility of currency exchange rates, we cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations upon future operating results.

It is difficult to integrate acquired companies, products and technologies into our operations and our inability to do so could greatly lessen the value of any such acquisitions.

We have made various strategic acquisitions of companies, products or technologies, including our acquisition of Protocom in August 2005 and the remaining equity interest in Aspace in December 2004, and we may make additional acquisitions in the future as a component of our business strategy. These acquisitions involve numerous risks, including:

 

   

Difficulties in integrating the operations, technologies, products, and personnel of the acquired companies;

 

   

Diversion of management’s attention from normal daily operations of the business;

 

   

Disputes over earn-outs or contingent payment obligations;

 

   

Insufficient revenue to offset increased expenses associated with acquisitions; and

 

   

The potential loss of key employees of the acquired entities.

Acquisitions may also result in:

 

   

Recording goodwill and other intangible assets that are subject to impairment testing on a regular basis and can result in potential periodic impairment charges which could be substantial;

 

   

Increases in our amortization expense;

 

   

Incurring large and immediate write-offs, and restructurings; and

 

   

Disputes regarding representations and warranties, indemnities and other provisions in acquisition agreements.

In the past we have recorded charges to earnings associated with the impairment of other intangible assets, write-downs of goodwill and property and equipment, and losses from discontinued operations from our previous acquisitions. In addition, due to a change in our revenue forecast related to our acquisition of Aspace, we recorded a charge of $9.4 million related to the impairment of goodwill and a charge of $6.1 million related to the impairment of intangible assets in fiscal 2005. Additionally, acquisitions can also lead to expensive and time-consuming litigation, including disputes relating to the achievement of earn-out targets, and may subject us to unanticipated liabilities or risks, disrupt our operations, divert management’s attention from day-to-day operations, and increase our operating expenses.

To date, we have primarily used cash and stock to finance our business acquisitions. We may incur debt to finance future acquisitions. The issuance of equity securities for any future acquisitions could be substantially dilutive to our stockholders. If we are unable to successfully integrate acquired businesses, products or technologies with our existing operations, we may not receive the intended benefits of such acquisitions and we may be required to take future charges to earnings.

We have recorded significant write-downs in recent periods for impairment of acquired intangible assets and may have similar write-downs in future periods.

We recorded an impairment charge of $9.4 million related to goodwill in fiscal 2005. Additionally, we recorded impairment of acquired developed technology of $3.7 million in fiscal 2005, and impairment of acquired intangible assets of $2.4 million in fiscal 2005 and $45,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The impaired assets consisted of developed and core technology, customer relationships, agreements, contracts, and trade names and trademarks capitalized in our acquisitions.

We may terminate additional non-core activities in the future or determine that our long-lived assets, acquired intangible assets, or goodwill have been impaired. Any future termination or impairment related charges could be significant and would have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

As of March 31, 2007, we had $8.1 million of other intangible assets and $35.9 million of goodwill, accounting for approximately 22% of our total assets. We performed the annual impairment evaluation of goodwill as of December 1, 2006 and determined that no goodwill impairment existed as of that date. If the enterprise value at December 1, 2007 is lower than the enterprise value as of our last impairment evaluation date of December 1, 2006, the annual evaluation could result in an impairment of goodwill and/or other intangible assets charge in the quarter ending December 31, 2007 or at any time the circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist.

Our operating results could suffer if we are subject to an intellectual property infringement claim.

 

28


We may face claims of infringement on proprietary rights of others that could subject us to costly litigation and possible restriction on the use of such proprietary rights. There is a risk that our products infringe on the proprietary rights of third parties. While we currently do not believe that our products infringe on proprietary rights of third parties, infringement or invalidity claims may nevertheless be asserted or prosecuted against us and our products may be found to have infringed the rights of third parties. Such claims are costly to defend and could subject us to substantial litigation costs. If any claims or actions are asserted against us, we may be required to modify our products or may be forced to obtain a license for such intellectual property rights. However, we may not be able to modify our products or obtain a license on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

In addition, despite precautions that we take, it may be possible for competitors to copy or reverse-engineer aspects of our current or future products, to independently develop similar or superior technology, or to design around the patents we own. Monitoring unauthorized use and transfer of our technology is difficult and technology piracy currently is and can be expected to continue to be a persistent problem. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as in the United States. It may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights through litigation, arbitration or other adversarial proceedings, which could be costly and distracting to management, and there is no assurance that we would prevail in any such proceedings.

We may have exposure to additional tax liabilities as a result of inter-company transfer pricing policies

As a multinational organization, we conduct business and are subject to income taxes in both the United States and various foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide income tax provision and related tax liabilities. In the ordinary course of a global business, inter-company transactions and calculations result in a variety of uncertain tax positions. We are in the process of undertaking a worldwide transfer pricing study to validate our inter-company pricing policies and evaluate our tax positions in anticipation of adopting Financial Accounting Standards Board FIN 48, Accounting for Income Tax Uncertainties. Our inter-company pricing policies are subject to audits in the various foreign tax jurisdictions. Although we believe that our tax estimates are reasonable, there is no assurance that the final determination of tax audits or potential tax disputes will not be different from what is reflected in our historical income tax provisions and accruals.
