* The Company defines bookings as the gross dollars invoiced through the sale of software licenses or technology, maintenance contracts and professional services. The Company utilizes bookings information as an operations measure, but it is not intended to replace U.S. GAAP accounting. Under the ratable revenue recognition method, license bookings are recognized as revenue over the appropriate period (generally three to five years). In general, variations in revenues period-over-period are affected by the amortization of current and prior period license bookings. Accordingly, the Company believes that trends in current and historical bookings are key factors in analyzing its operating results.
