GSI COMMERCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of GSI Commerce, Inc. and Subsidiaries (“the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements.
     The accompanying financial information is unaudited; however, in the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods reported have been included. The results of operations for the periods reported are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year.
     The financial statements presented include the accounts of the Company and all wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions among consolidated entities have been eliminated.
     This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2009, presented in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 4, 2009.
NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
     Reclassifications: Beginning with the second quarter of fiscal 2008, the Company replaced the sales and marketing line item in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations with two separate line items: (i) marketing and (ii) account management and operations. Marketing expenses include client revenue share expenses, net advertising and promotional expenses, subsidized shipping and handling expenses, and catalog expenses. These costs are derived from the Company’s e-commerce services segment. The remaining expenses that were formerly included in sales and marketing are now included within account management and operations. Account management and operations expenses include fulfillment costs, customer care costs, credit card fees, and payroll related to the buying, business management and marketing functions of the Company. This change was made to enable investors to analyze the Company’s expenses in a manner consistent with how the business is viewed internally and managed. The Company conformed this presentation for all periods presented.
     This reclassification had no effect on the Company’s previously reported net loss or stockholders’ equity.
     Client Revenue Share: Client revenue share charges are payments made to the Company’s clients in exchange for the use of their brand names, logos, the promotion of its clients’ URLs, Web stores and toll-free telephone numbers in clients’ marketing and communications materials, the implementation of programs to provide incentives to consumers to shop through the e-commerce businesses that the Company operates for its clients and other programs and services provided to the consumers of the e-commerce businesses that the Company operates for its clients, net of amounts reimbursed to the Company by its clients. Client revenue share is calculated as either a percentage of product sales or a guaranteed annual amount. Client revenue share charges were $7,274 for the three-month period ended April 4, 2009, and $9,406 for the three-month period ended March 29, 2008 and are included in marketing expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
     Shipping and Handling Costs: The Company defines shipping and handling costs as only those costs incurred for a third-party shipper to transport products to consumers and these costs are included in cost of revenues from product sales to the extent the costs are less than or equal to shipping revenue. In some instances, shipping and handling costs exceed shipping charges to the consumer and are subsidized by the Company. Additionally, the Company selectively offers

(unaudited)
promotional free shipping whereby it ships merchandise to consumers free of all shipping and handling charges. The cost of promotional free shipping and subsidized shipping and handling was $0 for the three-month period ended April 4, 2009, and $2,262 for the three-month period ended March 29, 2008, and is included in marketing expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
     Fulfillment Costs: The Company defines fulfillment costs as personnel, occupancy and other costs associated with its fulfillment centers, personnel and other costs associated with its logistical support and vendor operations departments and third-party warehouse and fulfillment services costs. Fulfillment costs were $20,348 for the three-month period ended April 4, 2009, and $23,940 for the three-month period ended March 29, 2008, and are included in account management and operations expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
     Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In February 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (“FSP 157-2”), which delayed the effective date of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”) for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis, at least annually, until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted FSP 157-2 for its non-financial assets and liabilities on January 4, 2009 with no impact to its condensed consolidated financial statements.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for an acquirer in a business combination on recognizing and measuring the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the entity acquired in its financial statements. In addition, SFAS 141(R) provides guidance on the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase as well as what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial impact of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) also requires recognition of assets and liabilities of noncontrolling interests acquired, fair value measurement of consideration and contingent consideration, expense recognition for transaction costs and certain integration costs, recognition of the fair value of contingencies, and adjustments to income tax expense for changes in an acquirer’s existing valuation allowances or uncertain tax positions that result from the business combination. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 141(R) on January 4, 2009 with no material impact to its condensed consolidated financial statements.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes principles and requirements of treatment for the portion of equity in a subsidiary that is not attributable directly or indirectly to a parent. This is commonly known as a minority interest. The objective of SFAS 160 is to improve relevance, comparability, and transparency concerning ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent by providing disclosures that clearly identify between interests of the parent and interest of the noncontrolling owners and the related impacts on the consolidated statement of income and the consolidated statement of financial position. SFAS 160 also provides guidance on disclosures related to changes in the parent’s ownership interest and deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 160 on January 4, 2009 with no impact to its condensed consolidated financial statements.
     In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 requires companies with derivative instruments to disclose how and why a company uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect a company’s financial statements. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 161 on January 4, 2009 with no impact to the disclosures in its condensed consolidated financial statements.
     In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement),” (“FSP APB 14-1”), which changes the accounting treatment for convertible debt instruments that allow for either mandatory or optional cash settlements. FSP APB 14-1 requires the issuer of convertible debt instruments with cash settlement features to separately account for the liability and equity components of the instrument. The Company’s $207,500 principal amount of subordinated convertible notes are subject to the provisions of FSP APB 14-1 because under the notes the Company has the ability to elect cash settlement of the conversion value of the notes. The Company adopted FSP APB 14-1 on January 4, 2009, and is required to apply its provisions retrospectively for all

periods presented. See Note 6, Long-Term Debt and Credit Facility, for additional information regarding the Company’s convertible notes and Note 13, Financial Statement Correction of Misstatement and Retrospective Application of FSP APB 14-1, for the impact of FSP APB 14-1 on the Company’s financial statements.
     In June 2008, the FASB ratified the consensus reached on Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue 07-5, “Determining whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock,” (“EITF 07-5”). EITF 07-5 provides a two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for the scope exception under SFAS 133. The Company adopted the provisions of EITF 07-5 on January 4, 2009 with no impact to its condensed consolidated financial statements.
     In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities” (“FSP EITF 03-6-1”). FSP EITF 03-6-1 requires that unvested stock-based compensation awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) should be classified as participating securities and should be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method as described by SFAS 128, “Earnings per Share.” The Company adopted the provisions of FSP EITF 03-6-1 on January 4, 2009 with no material impact to its condensed consolidated financial statements.

(1)   The estimated fair market value of the notes payable approximated their carrying value as of April 4, 2009 and January 3, 2009.
 
(2)   The Company had no outstanding borrowings and $1,575 of outstanding letters of credit under its $90,000 secured revolving credit facility as of April 4, 2009.
     In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP APB 14-1, which requires the issuer of convertible debt instruments with cash settlement features to separately account for the liability and equity components of the instrument. The Company’s $207,500 principal amount of subordinated convertible notes are subject to the provisions of FSP APB 14-1 because the Company has the ability to elect cash settlement of the conversion value of the notes. The liability component of the notes is determined based on the present value of the notes using the Company’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate on the issuance date. In order to determine the fair value of the debt portion and equity portion of the Company’s convertible notes in accordance with SFAS 157, the Company used a market approach to determine the market rate for comparable transactions had the Company issued nonconvertible debt with similar embedded features other than the conversion feature by using prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions at or near the issuance date of our convertible notes. The equity component is the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the note and the fair value of the liability component. The resulting debt discount, equal to the excess of the principal amount of the liability over its carrying amount, will be amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the debt. The Company adopted FSP APB 14-1 on January 4, 2009 and applied it retrospectively to all periods presented.
3% Convertible Notes due 2025
     In fiscal 2005, the Company completed a public offering of $57,500 aggregate principal amount of 3% subordinated convertible notes due June 1, 2025. The notes bear interest at 3%, payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1.
     Holders may convert the notes into shares of the Company’s common stock (or cash or a combination of the Company’s common stock and cash, if the Company so elects) at a conversion rate of 56.1545 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes (representing a conversion price of approximately $17.81 per share). Based on the Company’s closing stock price of $13.60 on April 3, 2009, the if-converted value of the notes does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of the notes.

NOTE 7—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
     The Company is involved in various litigation incidental to its business, including alleged contractual claims, claims relating to infringement of intellectual property rights of third parties, claims relating to the manner in which goods are sold through its integrated platform and claims relating to the Company’s collection of sales taxes in certain states. The Company collects sales taxes for goods owned and sold by it and shipped into certain states. As a result, the Company is subject from time to time to claims from other states alleging that the Company failed to collect and remit sales taxes for sales and shipments of products to customers in states.
     Based on the merits of the cases and/or the amounts claimed, the Company does not believe that any claims are likely to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position or results of operations. The Company may, however incur substantial expenses and devote substantial time to defend these claims whether or not such claims are meritorious. In addition, litigation is inherently unpredictable. In the event of a determination adverse to the Company, the Company may incur substantial monetary liability and may be required to implement expensive changes in its business practices, enter into costly royalty or licensing agreements, or begin to collect sales taxes in states in which we previously did not. An adverse determination could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position or results of operations. Expenditures for legal costs are expensed as incurred.

     At the end of each interim period, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date earnings. FASB’s Interpretation (“FIN”) 18, “Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods,” (“FIN 18”) provides that if in a separate jurisdiction, the Company anticipates an ordinary loss for the year in which a tax benefit cannot be recognized in accordance with SFAS 109, then the Company excludes the ordinary loss in that jurisdiction and the related tax benefit from the computation of its estimated annual effective tax rate. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws, rates or tax status is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs, however, the related benefit or expense is excluded from the annual effective tax rate. The tax expense or benefit related to significant, unusual, or extraordinary items are individually computed and recognized as a discrete item in the interim period in which the item occurs.
     The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences as a result of differences between amounts measured and recognized in accordance with tax laws and financial accounting standards, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained or as the tax environment changes. The Company has a historical seasonal pattern of reporting a net loss before income taxes in the first three quarters of its fiscal year offset by income before income taxes in its fiscal fourth quarter. The Company recognizes a tax benefit and increases its deferred tax assets in its interim periods as realization of the tax benefit at the end of the fiscal year is more likely than not.
     The Company’s tax provision for the three months ended April 4, 2009 was determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate which is 37.9% for fiscal 2009 plus any discrete items that affect taxes that occur during the quarter. The effective tax rate is higher than the 35% federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the benefit from state taxes partially offset by permanent items. FIN 18 provides that if in a separate jurisdiction, the Company anticipates an ordinary loss for the year in which a tax benefit cannot be recognized in accordance with SFAS 109, the Company should exclude the ordinary loss in that jurisdiction and the related tax benefit from the computation of the estimated annual effective tax rate. Estimated annual losses from international operations yield no tax benefit and were removed from the calculation of the annual effective tax rate. The Company does not provide for U.S. taxes on its undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries since it intends to invest such undistributed earnings indefinitely outside of the U.S.
     The Company’s reported effective tax rate for the three months ended April 4, 2009 was 37.6%. The annual effective tax rate of 37.9% is different from the actual tax rate of 37.6% primarily due to the benefit from certain discrete state items partially offset by losses in foreign operations that generate no tax benefit and therefore they are not included in the pre-tax book income calculation for the annual effective tax rate.
     The total amount of liabilities, interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions and recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of April 4, 2009 was $1,793. During the first three months of fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008, the Company recorded an $85 and an $89, respectively, increase in liabilities, including interest and penalties for uncertain tax positions that were recorded as income tax expense.
NOTE 10—LOSS PER SHARE
     Basic net loss per share for all periods has been computed in accordance with SFAS 128. Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the fiscal year.
     The following is a summary of the securities outstanding during the respective periods that have been excluded from the calculations because the effect on net loss per share would have been anti-dilutive for the three-month period ended:

NOTE 12—SEGMENT INFORMATION
     The Company operates two reportable segments: e-commerce services and interactive marketing services. For e-commerce services, the Company delivers customized solutions to its clients through an integrated platform which is comprised of three components: technology, fulfillment and customer care. The Company offers each of the platform’s components on a modular basis, or as part of an integrated, end-to-end solution. For interactive marketing services, the Company offers online marketing and advertising, user experience and design, studio and e-mail marketing services.
     The Company manages its segments based on an internal management reporting process that provides segment revenue and segment operating income before depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expense for determining financial decisions and allocating resources. The Company believes that segment operating income before depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expense is an appropriate measure of evaluating the operational performance of the Company’s segments. The Company uses this financial measure for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate segment performance. It is also used for planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. However, this measure should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, income from operations or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
     The Company manages its working capital on a consolidated basis and does not allocate long-lived assets to segments. In addition, segment assets are not reported to, or used by, the Company and therefore, pursuant to SFAS 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” total segment assets have not been disclosed.

NOTE 13—FINANCIAL STATEMENT CORRECTION OF MISSTATEMENT AND RETROSPECTIVE APPLICATION OF FSP APB 14-1
     The Company adopted FSP APB 14-1 on January 4, 2009 and retrospectively applied its provisions for all periods presented. See Recent Accounting Pronouncements in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, and Note 6, Long-Term Debt and Credit Facility, for more information regarding the Company’s adoption of FSP APB 14-1.
     The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for all stock-based awards over the requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures, in accordance with SFAS 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) requires that the amount of stock-based compensation expense recognized at any date must at least equal the portion of grant date value of the award that has vested at that date. Subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended April 4, 2009, the Company discovered a computational error in the software used by the Company to calculate the stock-based compensation expense whereby the expense recognized for each vested portion of the award was less than the grant date fair value of that vested portion of the award. This error resulted in an understatement of stock-based compensation expense in fiscal 2006, 2007, 2008 and the first fiscal quarter of 2009.
     In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 99, “Materiality,” and SAB 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements,” the Company evaluated the materiality of the error from qualitative and quantitative perspectives, and concluded that the error was immaterial to any prior year financial statements.
     The following tables reflect the impact of the retrospective application of FSP APB 14-1 and the correction of the stock-based compensation misstatement on the Company’s (i) Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of April 4, 2009, (ii) Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended April 4, 2009 and March 29, 2008, and (iii) Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended April 4, 2009 and March 29, 2008:

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION.
     All statements made in this Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements, as defined under federal securities law. The words “look forward to,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “guidance,” “potential,” “opportunity,” “continue,” “project,” “forecast,” “confident,” “prospects,” “schedule,” “designed,” “future,” “discussions,” “if” and similar expressions typically are used to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on the then-current expectations, beliefs, assumptions, estimates and forecasts about our business. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Factors which may affect our business, financial condition and operating results include the effects of changes in the economy, consumer spending, the financial markets and the industries in which we and our clients operate, changes affecting the Internet and e-commerce, our ability to develop and maintain relationships with strategic clients and suppliers and the timing of our establishment, extension or termination of our relationships with strategic clients, our ability to timely and successfully develop, maintain and protect our technology, confidential and proprietary information, and product and service offerings and execute operationally, our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, our ability to successfully integrate our acquisitions of other businesses, and the performance of acquired businesses. In addition, the current global economic environment could have a significant impact on many of these risks. More information about potential factors that could affect us are described in Part I, Item 1A in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2009, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2009. We expressly disclaim any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements.
Executive Overview
First Quarter of Fiscal 2009 Financial Results and Significant Events:
    Net revenues remained relatively constant compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2008. Service fee revenues grew 25% and net revenues from product sales decreased 14%. E-commerce services segment net revenues decreased by 5% and interactive marketing services segment net revenues increased by 107%.
 
    Net loss was $12.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, inclusive of a benefit for income taxes of $7.3 million, compared to a net loss of $11.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2008, inclusive of a tax benefit of $10.9 million. Loss from operations improved to $14.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 compared to a loss of $18.9 million in the first quarter of 2008.
2009 Outlook:
    For the remainder of fiscal 2009, compared to the same period in fiscal 2008, we expect a modest decrease in net revenues due primarily to the termination of a client relationship of one our top ten contributors of service fee revenues in fiscal 2008 as a result of the client’s liquidation, and the transition during fiscal 2009 of one owned inventory client to a non-owned inventory deal structure. We believe that the client transition will result in a decrease in net revenues from product sales partially offset by an increase in service fee revenues and will have no material effect on earnings. We also expect this transition will decrease our cost of revenues from product sales and our marketing expenses. In addition, we believe, due to the current economic environment, same store e-commerce revenues for the remainder of fiscal 2009 will grow at a more moderate rate than in fiscal 2008 and that capital expenditures will modestly decrease in fiscal 2009. We continue to expect that we will have a net loss in fiscal 2009.
Financial Statement Correction
     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been corrected from amounts previously reported. Accordingly, amounts presented in Management’s Discussion and Analysis include the effects of the changes. See Note 13, Financial Statement Correction of Misstatement and Retrospective Application of FSP APB 14-1, for a summary of the impact of the correction.

Net Revenues
     We derive our revenues from products we sell through our clients’ e-commerce business, from service fees we earn for developing and operating our clients’ e-commerce businesses, and from service fees we earn from providing interactive marketing services.
     Net Revenues from Product Sales. Net revenues from product sales are derived from products we sell through our clients’ e-commerce Web stores, including outbound shipping charges for all clients for which we provide fulfillment services. Net revenues from product sales are net of allowances for returns and discounts. We recognize revenue from product sales and shipping when products are shipped and title and risk of ownership passes to the consumer.
     Service Fee Revenues. Service fee revenues include revenues we earn from providing e-commerce services and interactive marketing services. E-commerce service fee revenues are generated from a client’s use of one or more of our e-commerce platform components, which include technology, fulfillment and customer care, as well as from professional services and gift card breakage. Interactive marketing service fee revenues are generated from online marketing, advertising, email and design services. Service fee revenues can be fixed or variable and are based on the activity performed, the value of merchandise sold, or the gross profit from a transaction.

Net Revenues by Type
     Net Revenues from Product Sales. Net revenues from product sales decreased $16.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. This decrease was primarily due to the transition during the first quarter of fiscal 2009 of one owned inventory client to a non-owned inventory deal structure, a decrease in revenue from our professional sports league clients, and a decrease in sales from one consumer electronics client. Of this decrease, $11.0 million was due to a decrease in revenues due to the client transition and from clients that ceased doing business with us after the first quarter of fiscal 2008, and $5.9 million was due to a decrease in revenues from clients that operated for the entirety of both periods. Shipping revenue for all clients for which we provide fulfillment services was $26.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and $24.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008.
     Service Fee Revenues. Service fee revenues increased $17.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. This increase was primarily due to the addition and growth of e-Dialog, Inc. (“e-Dialog”), which we acquired in February 2008, the client transition discussed above, increased revenues from clients that operated for the entirety of both periods, and increased revenues from clients that initially began generating revenue after the first quarter of fiscal 2008. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in revenues from clients that terminated their relationship with us, including the liquidation of the business of a client that was one of our top ten contributors of service fee revenues for fiscal 2008.
     For the remainder of fiscal 2009, we expect a continued decrease in net revenues from product sales due to the client transition discussed above. We expect this transition to continue to result in an increase in service fee revenues for the remainder of fiscal 2009, but an overall decline in total net revenues.
Net Revenues by Segment

23


 

     E-Commerce Services Segment Revenues. Net revenues from e-commerce services decreased $9.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 due to a $16.9 million decrease in net revenues from product sales which was partially offset by an increase of $7.9 million in service fee revenues.
     Of the $9.0 million decrease in net revenues from our e-commerce services segment, $8.2 million was from clients that did not operate for the entirety of both periods, including a client that was one of our top ten contributors of service fee revenues for fiscal 2008 with which we terminated our relationship as a result of that client’s liquidation, and $0.8 million was from clients that operated for the entirety of both periods.
     Of the $7.9 million service fee revenue increase, $5.1 million was from an increase in revenues from clients that operated for the entirety of both periods, and $2.8 million was from clients that did not operate for the entirety of both periods. See the discussion above under Net Revenues by Type — Net Revenues from Product Sales for an explanation of the $16.9 million decrease in net revenues from product sales.
     Interactive Marketing Services Segment Revenues. Net revenues increased by 107%, or $13.0 million, due primarily to our acquisition of e-Dialog in February 2008 as well as from organic growth in our e-mail marketing, online marketing, design, and digital photo studio services.
Costs and Expenses
     Costs and expenses consist of costs of revenues from product sales, marketing expenses, account management and operations expenses, product development expenses, general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization expenses. Starting in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 we replaced the former expense line of sales and marketing with two separate line items: (i) marketing, and (ii) account management and operations. We conformed all periods presented to this presentation. This change was made to enable investors to analyze our expenses in a manner consistent with management’s internal view which is used to manage the business.
     Costs of Revenues from Product Sales. Costs of revenues from product sales consist primarily of direct costs associated with (i) products we sell through our clients’ Web stores, and (ii) our shipping charges for all clients for which we provide fulfillment services. All costs of revenues from product sales were attributable to our e-commerce services segment.
     Marketing. Marketing expenses consist primarily of net client revenue share charges, promotional free shipping and subsidized shipping and handling costs, catalog costs, and net advertising and promotional expenses. All marketing expenses were attributable to our e-commerce services segment and generally supported revenues from product sales.
     Account Management and Operations. Account management and operations expenses consist primarily of costs to operate our fulfillment centers and customer care centers, credit card fees, and payroll related to our buying, business management, operations and marketing functions.
     Product Development. Product development expenses consist primarily of expenses associated with planning, maintaining and operating our proprietary e-commerce and e-mail platforms and related systems, and payroll and related expenses for engineering, production, creative and management information systems.
     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses for executive, finance, human resources, legal, sales and administrative personnel, as well as bad debt expense and occupancy costs for our headquarters and other offices.
     Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses relate primarily to the depreciation or amortization of the capitalized costs for our purchased and internally-developed technology, including a portion of the cost related to the employees that developed such technology, hardware and software; furniture and equipment at our corporate headquarters, fulfillment centers and customer care centers; the office buildings and other facilities owned by us; and acquisition-related intangible assets.

As a percentage of net revenues from product sales

     Cost of revenues from product sales decreased $6.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The decrease in cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues from 44% in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 to 41% in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 was primarily due to the increase in service fees and the decrease in product sales, because service fees have no associated cost of revenue. We continue to expect a decrease in cost of revenues from product sales as a percentage of net revenues as we expect service fee revenues to continue to grow and net revenues from product sales to continue to decrease.
     The increase in cost of revenues from product sales as a percentage of net revenues from product sales from 69% to 75% was primarily due to an increase in shipping revenue. Our cost of generating shipping revenue is higher than our cost of generating revenue on sale of products.

    14 %     10 %
     Marketing expense decreased $6.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. As a percentage of net revenues, marketing expenses decreased from 9% to 6%. This decrease was primarily due to the increase in service fees and the decrease in product sales, because service fees have no associated marketing expenses.
     As a percentage of net revenues from product sales, marketing expenses decreased from 14% to 10% due primarily to the transition during fiscal 2009 of one owned inventory client to a non-owned inventory deal structure and a decrease in net revenues from product sales. Of the $6.0 million decrease in marketing expenses, $2.3 million was due to a decrease in promotional free shipping and subsidized shipping and handling costs, $2.1 million was due to a decrease in client revenue share expenses caused by decreased sales from owned inventory clients, $1.4 million was due to a decrease in marketing costs, and $0.2 million decrease in other marketing expenses. We expect marketing expenses to continue to decrease in absolute dollars during fiscal 2009 compared to fiscal 2008, because of the expected decrease in net revenues from product sales. We continue to expect a decrease in marketing expenses as a percentage of net revenues, as we expect service fee revenues to increase and net revenues from product sales to decrease.
     Account Management and Operations. Account management and operations expenses decreased $1.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. As a percentage of net revenues, account management and operations expenses decreased from 30% to 29%. The decreases in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net revenues were primarily due to decreases in fulfillment expenses, occupancy costs and credit card fees, partially offset by the e-Dialog acquisition in February 2008. We expect account management and operations expenses to be relatively constant in absolute dollars during fiscal 2009 compared to fiscal 2008, as we believe our fulfillment and call center capacity will be sufficient to accommodate the growth of our domestic and international e-commerce businesses and our interactive marketing services business.

     Product Development. Product development expenses increased $5.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. As a percentage of net revenues, product development expenses increased from 12% to 14%. The increases in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net revenues were primarily due to the e-Dialog acquisition and increased personnel expenses to enhance our e-commerce technology platform. Of the $5.7 million increase in product development expenses, $5.3 million was due to an increase in personnel and related costs and $0.4 million was due to an increase in other product development costs. We continue to expect product development expenses to increase in absolute dollars in fiscal 2009 compared to fiscal 2008, as we plan to continue to launch additional client Web stores, invest in our e-commerce and interactive marketing services platforms and expand our international operations.
     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased $3.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. As a percentage of net revenues, general and administrative expenses increased from 8% to 9%. The increases in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net revenues were primarily due to the e-Dialog acquisition and a $1.3 million charge for acquisition related costs for a potential acquisition that terminated in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. We continue to expect general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars in fiscal 2009 compared to fiscal 2008 as we expect to add new clients, expand our e-commerce and interactive marketing services platforms, and expand our international operations.
     Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $1.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. As a percentage of net revenues, depreciation and amortization expenses increased from 7% to 8%. Depreciation expenses increased $1.1 million due to the depreciation of prior and current year fixed asset additions. Amortization expenses increased $0.5 million primarily due to the intangible asset amortization related to the e-Dialog acquisition. While we expect capital expenditures for fiscal 2009 to decrease, we continue to expect depreciation expenses to increase in fiscal 2009 compared to fiscal 2008, as we continue to depreciate capital expenditures made in prior years. We expect amortization expenses to decrease in fiscal 2009 compared to fiscal 2008 due a decrease in intangible asset amortization associated with the Accretive and e-Dialog acquisitions.

     Total other expenses increased $1.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The $0.4 million increase in interest expense is due to the amortization of the debt discount on our convertible notes in accordance with FSP APB 14-1. The $0.9 million decrease in interest income was due to lower cash balances as a result of the February 2008 acquisition of e-Dialog, as well as lower interest rates earned in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The $0.1 million increase in other expense was primarily due to foreign currency exchange losses on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.
Income Taxes
     We recorded a benefit of $7.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Our tax provision for interim periods was determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate which is 37.9% for fiscal 2009 plus any discrete items that effect taxes that occur during the quarter. The effective tax rate is higher than the 35% federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the benefit from state taxes partially offset by permanent items.
     As of January 3, 2009, we had available federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $430.9 million which expire in the years 2009 through 2028. As of January 3, 2009, we had available state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $187.0 million which expire in the years 2010 through 2028 and foreign net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $8.5 million that either begin expiring in 2021 or have no expiration date. A portion of these net operating loss carryforwards are offset by a valuation allowance. Management monitors all available positive and negative evidence related to our ability to utilize our deferred tax assets. Should management determine that it is more likely than not that these

deferred tax assets will be utilized, we will release a portion of the remaining valuation allowance. Should management determine that it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will not be utilized, we will increase the valuation allowance.
     We have federal net operating losses of approximately $231.5 million which will expire as a result of the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limitation regardless of the amount of future taxable income; and thus has a full valuation allowance recorded against this deferred tax asset.
Seasonality
     We have experienced and expect to continue to experience seasonal fluctuations in our revenues from e-commerce services. These seasonal patterns will cause quarterly fluctuations in our operating results. In particular, our fourth fiscal quarter has accounted for and is expected to continue to account for a disproportionate percentage of our total annual revenues. We experience less seasonality in our revenues from interactive marketing services. We believe that results of operations for a quarterly period may not be indicative of the results for any other quarter or for the full year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
                 
    As of
    January 3,   April 4,
    2009   2009
    (in millions)
Cash and cash equivalents
  $ 130.3     $ 48.1  
Percentage of total assets
    18 %     8 %
     We expect to generate positive cash flow from operations in fiscal 2009, the substantial majority of which will be generated in our fourth fiscal quarter. We believe that our cash flow from operating activities, cash and cash equivalents balances, and borrowing availability under our $90 million secured revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs for at least the next 12 months.
Sources of Cash
     Our principal sources of liquidity in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 were our cash and cash equivalents balances. As of April 4, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $48.1 million, compared to $130.3 million of cash and cash equivalents as of January 3, 2009. Our cash equivalents are comprised of money market mutual funds.
     We have experienced and expect to continue to experience seasonal fluctuations in our cash flows. We generate the substantial majority of cash from our operating activities in our fourth fiscal quarter. In our first fiscal quarter, we typically use cash generated from operating activities in the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year to satisfy accounts payable and accrued expenses incurred in the fourth fiscal quarter of our prior fiscal year. During our second and third fiscal quarters, we generally fund our operating expenses and capital expenditures from either cash generated from operating activities, cash and cash equivalents, or financing activities.
     As of April 4, 2009, we had no outstanding borrowings under our $90 million secured revolving bank credit facility, compared with $15.0 million of borrowings as of March 29, 2008. The credit facility contains financial and restrictive covenants that limit our ability to engage in activities that may be in our long term best interests. We do not believe the financial covenants will limit our ability to utilize the entire borrowing availability in fiscal 2009, if necessary.
Uses of Cash
     We used $72.6 million and $40.5 million of cash flows from operating activities in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008, respectively.
     We invest cash to support our operations and infrastructure needs and to make acquisitions and strategic investments. We invested $0.75 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and $145.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 for our acquisition of e-Dialog. Our capital expenditures totaled $7.4 million and $17.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008, respectively. Our capital expenditures have generally comprised purchases of computer hardware and software, internally developed software, furniture and fixtures, and real estate. We expect a modest decrease in capital expenditures in fiscal 2009.

     Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have concluded that, as of April 4, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e), were effective at the reasonable assurance level, to ensure that (i) information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
     Changes in internal control over financial reporting. We monitor and evaluate on an ongoing basis our internal control over financial reporting in order to improve its overall effectiveness. In the course of these evaluations, we modify and refine our internal processes and controls as conditions warrant. As required by Rule 13a-15(d), our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, also conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the fiscal quarter ended April 4, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, there has been no such change during the fiscal quarter ended April 4, 2009.
