Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block]

Rand Worldwide Inc. ("Rand Worldwide”) is a leading supplier in the design automation, facilities and data management software marketplace. Rand Worldwide also provides value-added services, such as training, technical support and other consulting and professional services to corporations, government agencies and educational institutions worldwide.

References in these Notes to “Rand Worldwide”, “the Company”, “us”, “we”, “our” are references to Rand Worldwide, Inc. and, unless the context clearly contemplates otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries.

The Company is organized into three divisions: IMAGINiT Technologies (“IMAGINiT”), Enterprise Applications and ASCENT—Center for Technical Knowledge (“ASCENT”).

The IMAGINiT division is one of the largest value-added resellers of Autodesk, Inc. (“Autodesk”) products in the world, providing Autodesk solutions and value-added services to customers in the manufacturing, infrastructure, building, and media and entertainment industries. IMAGINiT also specializes in computational fluid dynamics analysis consulting and thermal simulation services and sells its own proprietary software products and related services, enhancing its total client solution offerings. IMAGINiT operates in the United States and Canada.

The Enterprise Applications division is the non-Autodesk component of the business and offers various products and services including data governance solutions, facilities management solutions and 3DExperience products from Dassault Systèmes which include CATIA, ENOVIA, SIMULIA, DELMIA, and DMU. Enterprise Applications also specializes in training solutions for Dassault Systèmes and PTC products including Pro/ENGINEER, CREO, and Windchill.

ASCENT is the courseware division of Rand Worldwide and is a leading developer of professional training materials and knowledge products for engineering software tools.

Prior to the quarter ended September 30, 2013, management performed its primary segment analysis based upon geographic location and operations by geographic segment. The Company’s operations included business in North America, Singapore/Malaysia and Australia. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013, the Company disposed of two of the three geographic segments, therefore leaving only one segment with continuing operations. As a result of those dispositions, management considers the Company’s operations to be one reportable segment.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules or regulations. The interim financial statements are unaudited, and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in management’s opinion, necessary to present a fair statement of results of the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto in Rand Worldwide Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year or any future interim period.
