NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(All quarterly data herein is unaudited)

 

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of Business

 

BroadVision, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in May 1993 and has been a publicly traded corporation since 1996. BroadVision solutions help customers rapidly increase revenues and reduce costs by moving interactions and transactions to personalized self-service via the web. Our integrated self-service application suite–including process, commerce, portal and content–offers rich functionality out of the box, and is easily configured for each customer’s e-business environment.

 

Over 1,000 customers — including U.S. Air Force, Lockheed Martin, Netikos, Circuit City, Iberia L.A.E. and Vodafone — have licensed BroadVision solutions to power and personalize their mission-critical web initiatives.

 

Recent Developments

 

As discussed more fully in Note 9 below, on July 25, 2005, the Company entered into a definitive agreement, subject to stockholder approval and other conditions, to merge with a newly-formed portfolio company of Vector Capital Corporation (“Vector”) in a transaction in which the Company’s stockholders would receive $0.84 cash per share (the “Merger”). If approved by the Company’s stockholders, the Merger is presently anticipated to close in the late third or fourth quarter of 2005.  Also as discussed more fully in Note 9 below, representatives of the Company have received copies of four complaints relating to purported class action lawsuits that each names the Company’s directors and the Company as defendants, and that each alleges that the director defendants violated their fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders by, among other things, failing to maximize the Company’s value and ignoring, or failing to adequately protect against, certain purported conflicts of interest.

 

Due to a combination of factors, the Company currently anticipates that its available cash resources will likely be insufficient to meet its payment obligations by some point in the fourth quarter of 2005. The factors contributing to this belief include lower-than-anticipated revenues in 2005, costs associated with the Merger and cash payment requirements under its outstanding convertible notes.  If the Company’s cash resources become insufficient to meet its obligations as they become due, its business and future prospects would be seriously harmed and its ability to operate the business as a going concern and complete the merger could be jeopardized. The Merger is subject to numerous conditions, including the approval of the Company’s stockholders, that could considerably delay or even prevent its completion, and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional financing under its existing bank credit facility or otherwise. The requirements the Company must meet in order to obtain financing under its bank credit facility became more stringent as of July 2005, and the Company presently anticipates being unable to meet the new requirements for the foreseeable future. In order to obtain financing from any other source, the Company would be required to obtain the approval of both the Vector portfolio company with which it has agreed to merge and the holders of its outstanding convertible notes.

 

If the Merger is not consummated, the Company will be required to raise additional funds and it may be unable to do so on acceptable terms or at all. Its ability to obtain debt or equity funding would depend on a number of factors, including restrictive covenants contained in its current convertible note agreement and credit facilities, market conditions, its operating performance and investor interest.  If adequate additional funding were not available, the Company would have insufficient working capital to continue executing its current business plan.  Even if additional funding were available, the Company’s indebtedness and debt service obligations could continue to increase its vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, limit its flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and the industry in which it competes, and place it at a competitive disadvantage to less leveraged competitors and those with better access to capital resources.

 

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  In the Company’s opinion, the consolidated financial statements presented herein include all necessary adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, to fairly state the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated.  The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make certain assumptions and estimates that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from estimates. The financial results and related information as of June 30, 2005

and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 are unaudited. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2004 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but does not necessarily reflect all of the informational disclosures previously reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included with the Company’s Form 10-K and other documents that have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of the Company’s operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Overview

 

The Company’s revenue consists of fees for licenses of the Company’s software products, maintenance, consulting services and customer training. The Company generally charges fees for licenses of its software products either based on the number of persons registered to use the product or based on the number of Central Processing Units (“CPUs”) on the machine on which the product is installed. Licenses for software whereby fees charged are based upon the number of persons registered to use the product are differentiated between licenses for development use and licenses for use in deployment of the customer’s website. Licenses for software whereby fees charged are on a per-CPU basis do not differentiate between development and deployment usage. The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in accordance with Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, as amended, SOP 98-9 and the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (“SAB101”).

 

Software License Revenue

 

The Company licenses its products through its direct sales force and indirectly through resellers. In general, software license revenues are recognized when a non-cancelable license agreement has been signed and the customer acknowledges an unconditional obligation to pay, the software product has been delivered, there are no uncertainties surrounding product acceptance, the fees are fixed and determinable and collection is considered probable. Delivery is considered to have occurred when title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer, which generally occurs when media containing the licensed programs is provided to a common carrier. In case of electronic delivery, delivery occurs when the customer is given access to the licensed programs. For products that cannot be used without a licensing key, the delivery requirement is met when the licensing key is made available to the customer. If collectibility is not considered probable, revenue is recognized when the fee is collected. Subscription-based license revenues are recognized ratably over the subscription period. The Company enters into reseller arrangements that typically provide for sublicense fees payable to the Company based upon a percentage of list price. The Company does not grant its resellers the right of return.

 

The Company recognizes revenue using the residual method pursuant to the requirements of SOP 97-2, as amended by SOP 98-9. Revenues recognized from multiple-element software arrangements are allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the fair values of the elements, such as licenses for software products, maintenance, consulting services or customer training. The determination of fair value is based on objective evidence, which is specific to the Company. The Company limits its assessment of objective evidence for each element to either the price charged when the same element is sold separately or the price established by management having the relevant authority to do so, for an element not yet sold separately. If evidence of fair value of all undelivered elements exists but evidence does not exist for one or more delivered elements, then revenue is recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue.

 

The Company records unearned revenue for software license agreements when cash has been received from the customer and the agreement does not qualify for revenue recognition under the Company’s revenue recognition policy. The Company records accounts receivable for software license agreements when the agreement qualifies for revenue recognition but cash or other consideration has not been received from the customer.

 

Services Revenue

 

Consulting services revenues and customer training revenues are recognized as such services are performed. Maintenance revenues, which include revenues bundled with software license agreements that entitle the customers to technical support and future unspecified enhancements to the Company’s products, are deferred and recognized ratably over the related agreement period, generally twelve months.

 

7



 

The Company’s consulting services, which consist of consulting, maintenance and training, are delivered through the BroadVision Global Services (“BVGS”) organization. Services that the Company provides are not essential to the functionality of the software. The Company records reimbursement from its customers for out-of-pocket expenses as an increase to services revenues.

 

Employee Stock Option and Purchase Plans

 

The Company accounts for employee stock-based awards in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion 25 (“APB 25”), Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 44 (“FIN 44”), Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation—an Interpretation of APB Opinion 25, and related interpretations. As such, compensation expense is recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 123, the Company discloses the pro forma effects of using the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation arrangements. The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees For Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services.

 

The Company applies APB 25 and related interpretations when accounting for its stock option and stock purchase plans. In accordance with APB 25, we apply the intrinsic value method in accounting for employee stock options. Accordingly, the Company generally recognizes no compensation expense with respect to stock-based awards to employees.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company recorded a stock-based compensation credit of $15,000. This credit was recorded as a result of granting a third party consultant shares of our common stock.  The credit, which was calculated using the Black-Scholes model, was recorded as a reduction of sales and marketing expense.

 

We have determined pro forma information regarding net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share as if we had accounted for employee stock options under the fair value method as required by SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock Compensation. The fair value of these stock-based awards to employees was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Had compensation cost for our stock option plan and employee stock purchase plan been determined consistent with SFAS 123, our reported net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share would have been changed to the amounts indicated below (in thousands except per share data):

Earnings Per Share Information

 

Basic income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding less shares subject to repurchase. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding and, when dilutive, common equivalent shares from outstanding stock

options and warrants using the treasury stock method, potential common shares from the conversion of convertible debt using the as-if converted method, and shares subject to repurchase. The following table sets forth the basic and diluted income (loss) per share computational data for the periods presented.

 

There were 5.4 million and 5.8 million potential common shares from the conversion of outstanding convertible notes excluded in the diluted shares outstanding during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, as the effect of such shares is anti-dilutive.. There were 3,583,252 and 3,112,506 potential common shares excluded from the determination of diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, as the effect of such shares is anti-dilutive.

Allowances and Reserves

 

Occasionally, the Company’s customers experience financial difficulty after the Company records the revenue but before payment has been received. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company’s normal payment terms are 30 to 90 days from invoice date. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers was to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

 

Restructuring

 

Through June 30, 2005, we have approved certain restructuring plans to, among other things, reduce our workforce and consolidate facilities. Restructuring and asset impairment charges were taken to align our cost structure with changing market conditions and to create a more efficient organization. Our restructuring charges are comprised primarily of: (i) severance and benefits termination costs related to the reduction of our workforce; (ii) lease termination costs and/or costs associated with permanently vacating our facilities; (iii) other incremental costs incurred as a direct result of the restructuring plan; and (iv) impairment costs related to certain long-lived assets abandoned. We account for each of these costs in accordance with SAB No. 100, Restructuring and Impairment Charges (“SAB 100”).

 

Severance and Termination Costs. We account for severance and benefits termination costs as follows:

 

                  For exit or disposal activities initiated on or prior to December 31, 2002, we account for costs in accordance with EITF Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (Including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring) (“EITF 94-3”). Accordingly, we record the liability related to these termination costs when the following conditions have been met: (i) management with the appropriate level of authority approves a termination plan that commits us to such plan and establishes the benefits the employees will receive upon termination; (ii) the benefit arrangement is communicated to the employees in sufficient detail to enable the employees to determine the termination benefits; (iii) the plan specifically identifies the number of employees to be terminated, their locations and their job classifications; and (iv) the period of time to implement the plan does not indicate changes to the plan are likely

 

                  For exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, we account for costs in accordance with SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit Activities (“SFAS 146”). SFAS 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value only when the liability is incurred.

 

Excess Facilities Costs. We account for excess facilities costs as follows:

 

9



 

                  For exit or disposal activities initiated on or prior to December 31, 2002, we account for lease termination and/or abandonment costs in accordance with EITF 88-10, Costs Associated with Lease Modification or Termination. Accordingly, we recorded the costs associated with lease termination and/or abandonment when the leased property had no substantive future use or benefit to us.

 

                  For exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, we account for lease termination and/or abandonment costs in accordance with SFAS 146, which requires that a liability for such costs be recognized and measured initially at fair value on the cease use date of the facility.

 

Severance and termination costs and excess facilities costs we record under these provisions are not associated with nor do they benefit continuing activities.

 

Inherent in the estimation of the costs related to our restructuring efforts are assessments related to the most likely expected outcome of the significant actions to accomplish the restructuring. In determining the charges related to the restructurings to date, the majority of estimates made by management have related to charges for excess facilities. In determining the charges for excess facilities, we were required to estimate future sublease income, future net operating expenses of the facilities, and brokerage commissions, among other expenses. The most significant of these estimates have related to the timing and extent of future sublease income in which to reduce our lease obligations. We based our estimates of sublease income, in part, on the opinions of independent real estate experts, current market conditions and rental rates, an assessment of the time period over which reasonable estimates could be made, the status of negotiations with potential subtenants, and the location of the respective facility, among other factors.  The Company has recorded the low-end of a range of assumptions modeled for restructuring charges, in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies (“SFAS 5”). Adjustments to the facilities accrual will be required if actual lease exit costs or sublease income differ from amounts currently expected. We will review the status of restructuring activities on a quarterly basis and, if appropriate, record changes to our restructuring obligations in current operations based on management’s most current estimates.

 

Legal Matters

 

The Company’s current estimated range of liability related to pending litigation is based on claims for which it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the Company can estimate the amount and range of loss. The Company has recorded the minimum estimated liability related to those claims, where there is a range of loss. Because of the uncertainties related to both the determination of the probability of an unfavorable outcome and the amount and range of loss in the event of an unfavorable outcome, the Company is unable to make a reasonable estimate of the liability that could result from the remaining pending litigation. As additional information becomes available, the Company will assess the potential liability related to its pending litigation and revise its estimates, if necessary. Such revisions in the Company’s estimates of the potential liability could materially impact the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

 

On June 10, 2004, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (“MetLife”) filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, naming the Company as a defendant. The complaint alleged that the Company was liable for unlawful detainer of premises leased from the plaintiff. The plaintiff thereafter filed a First Amended Complaint alleging that the Company no longer held possession of the premises but was in breach of the lease. In February 2005, MetLife and the Company reached agreement and executed documents regarding a settlement of the pending lawsuit under which the Company will pay MetLife an aggregate of $1.9 million in consideration for termination of the lease, dismissal of the lawsuit and in full settlement of approximately $3.1 million of past and future lease obligations. The first of three installment payments was made in February 2005,  the second was made in May 2005, and the third is due in September 2005.

 

Information about certain recently filed legal proceedings is set forth in Note 9 below.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial assets that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash,

 

10



 

cash equivalents, and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with two separate financial institutions. The Company markets and sells its products throughout the world and performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses. For the three-months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004, no one customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenue. As of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, no customer individually accounted for more than 10% of accounts receivable.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions

 

During fiscal 2004, the Company changed the functional currencies of all foreign subsidiaries from the U.S. dollar to the local currency of the respective countries. Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates for the period. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of foreign currency assets and liabilities are included in other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company periodically assesses the impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The Company assesses the impairment of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets in accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations (“SFAS 141”) and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”). The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 142 as of January 1, 2002.

 

Reclassification

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances in order to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications do not impact BroadVision’s consolidated financial condition, results of operation or cash flows.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, debt, and at December 31, 2004, equity investments. The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments. The Company believes the reported carrying amounts of its financial instruments approximates fair value, based upon the maturities and nature of its cash equivalents, accounts receivable and payable, and based on the current rates available to it on similar debt issues. Additionally, the Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of all of its investments for other-than-temporary impairment when events and circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amounts by which the carrying amount exceeds its fair market value.

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss), which consists of unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities and cumulative translation adjustments. Total accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is displayed as a separate component of stockholder’s equity in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The accumulated balances for each classification of comprehensive income (loss) consist of the following, net of taxes (unaudited, in thousands):

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”), which replaces SFAS 123 and supercedes APB 25. SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values beginning with the first

 

11



 

interim or annual period beginning after June 15, 2005, with early adoption encouraged. On April 14, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted a new rule that amends the compliance dates for SFAS 123(R). Under the new rule, the Company is required to adopt SFAS 123(R) in the first quarter of fiscal 2006, beginning January 2, 2006. The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. Under SFAS 123R, we must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include prospective and retroactive adoption options. We have not yet determined the method of adoption or the effect of adopting SFAS 123R. We are assessing the requirements of SFAS 123R and expect that its adoption will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and earnings (loss) per share.

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions (“SFAS 153”).  SFAS 153 eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets in paragraph 21(b) of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. SFAS 153 specifies that a nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. SFAS 153 is effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not expect that adoption of SFAS 153 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity.

In November 2004, the Company entered into a definitive agreement for the private placement of up to $20.0 million of convertible notes to five institutional investors. The Company issued an initial $16.0 million of convertible notes which are convertible, at the holders’ option, into common stock at a conversion price of $2.76 per share. The convertible notes bear interest at a rate of six percent per annum, and the Company was originally obligated to repay the principal amount of the initial $16.0 million of notes in 15 equal monthly installments of $1.1 million, which began in June 2005.  Under the terms of the notes, the monthly principal repayment obligation will increase to $2.1 million beginning in September 2005 due to the Company’s cash balances falling below certain defined levels as of June 30, 2005.  This increase has the effect of requiring the Company to repay the principal amount in nine installments through April 2006.  Payments of principal and interest may be made in either cash or, upon satisfaction of various conditions set forth in the notes, shares of common stock. However, the Company anticipates having to use cash to satisfy all of its payment obligations under the notes.

 

Investors also received warrants to purchase approximately 1.7 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $3.58 per share. The warrants will be exercisable beginning six months after the closing date, and have a term of five years.  As of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, a total of $14.9 million and $16.0 million, respectively, in face value convertible notes was outstanding. The Company is recording the difference between the face value and discounted amount as additional interest expense over the estimated life of the notes.  These notes are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2004, and June 30, 2005, at the discounted amounts of $12.0 million and $12.5 million, respectively.

 

In June 2005, the Company renewed and amended its revolving credit facility. The amount available under the revolving line of credit is up to $20.0 million, subject to certain borrowing limitations based on the Company’s unrestricted cash balances. Borrowings under the revolving line of credit are collateralized by all of the Company’s assets and bear interest at the bank’s prime rate at December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2005 and prime rate plus 1.0% thereafter (6.0% as of June 30, 2005 and 5.25% as of December 31, 2004). As of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, $15.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively, remained outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility.  As of July 1, 2005, the requirements the Company must meet in order to continue to access the credit facility became more stringent under the renewed and amended agreement, and the Company expects that, beginning in the third quarter of 2005 and for the foreseeable future, it will be unable to meet the new requirements.

 

As of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, outstanding term debt borrowings were approximately $616,000 and $1.0 million, respectively. Borrowings bear interest at the bank’s prime rate of 5.25% plus up to 1.25% as of December 31, 2004 and the bank’s prime rate of 6.0% plus up to 3.0% as of June 30, 2005. Principal and interest are due in monthly payments through maturity based on the terms of the facilities. Principal and interest payments of $227,000 are due for the remainder of 2005, and payments of $389,000 are due thereafter.

 

Commitments totaling $3.9 million and $24.3 million in the form of standby letters of credit were issued on the Company’s behalf from financial institutions as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, primarily in favor of the Company’s various landlords to secure obligations under the Company’s facility leases.  Accordingly, $3.9 million and $24.3 million have been presented as restricted cash in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.

 

Note 4. Commitments and Contingencies

 

Warranties and Indemnification

 

The Company provides a warranty to its customers that its software will perform substantially in accordance with documentation typically for a period of 90 days following receipt of the software. The Company also indemnifies certain customers from third-party claims of intellectual property infringement relating to the use of its products.  Historically, costs related to these guarantees have not been significant and the Company is unable to estimate the maximum potential impact of these guarantees on its future results of operations.

 

13



 

The Company has agreements whereby it indemnifies its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer is, or was, serving in such capacity. The term of the indemnification period is for so long as such officer or director is subject to an indemnifiable event by reason of the fact that such person was serving in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, the Company has a director and officer insurance policy that limits its exposure and enables the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. As a result of the Company’s insurance policy coverage, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is insignificant. Accordingly, the Company has no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of either June 30, 2005 or December 31, 2004. The Company assesses the need for an indemnification reserve on a quarterly basis and there can be no guarantee that an indemnification reserve will not become necessary in the future.

 

Leases

 

The Company leases its headquarters facility and its other facilities under non-cancelable operating lease agreements expiring through the year 2010. Under the terms of the agreements, the Company is required to pay lease costs, property taxes, insurance and normal maintenance costs.

 

A summary of total future minimum lease payments, net of future sublease income, as of June 30, 2005, under noncancelable operating lease agreements is as follows (in millions):

As of June 30, 2005, the Company had $3.9 million of outstanding commitments in the form of standby letters of credit, primarily in favor of the Company’s various landlords to secure obligations under the Company’s facility leases.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

Information about certain recently filed legal proceedings is set forth in Note 9 below.

 

The Company is subject to various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. Although management currently believes that the outcome of these outstanding legal proceedings, claims and litigation involving the Company will not have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations or financial condition, litigation is inherently uncertain, and there can be no assurance that existing or future litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition.

 

On June 10, 2004, MetLife filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, naming the Company as a defendant. The complaint alleged that the Company was liable for unlawful detainer of premises leased from the plaintiff. The plaintiff thereafter filed a First Amended Complaint alleging that the Company no longer held possession of the premises but was in breach of the lease. In February 2005, MetLife and the Company reached agreement and executed documents regarding a settlement of the pending lawsuit under which the Company will pay MetLife an aggregate of $1.9 million in consideration for termination of the lease, dismissal of the lawsuit and in full settlement of approximately $3.1 million of past and future lease obligations. The first of three installment payments was made in February 2005, the second was made in May 2005, and the third is due in September 2005.

Note 6. Restructuring Charges

 

Through June 30, 2005, the Company has approved certain restructuring plans to, among other things, reduce its workforce and consolidate facilities. Restructuring and asset impairment charges have been taken to align our cost structure with changing market conditions and to create a more efficient organization. Our restructuring charges have been comprised primarily of: (i) severance and benefits termination costs related to the reduction of our workforce; (ii) lease termination costs and/or costs associated with permanently vacating our facilities; (iii) other incremental costs incurred as a direct result of the restructuring plan; and (iv) impairment costs related to certain long-lived assets abandoned. We account for each of these costs in accordance with SFAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

 

For each of the periods presented herein, restructuring charges consist solely of:

 

                  Severance and Termination Benefits — These costs represent severance, payroll taxes and COBRA benefits related to restructuring plans implemented prior to the date recognized.

 

                  Excess Facilities — These costs represent future minimum lease payments related to excess and abandoned space under lease, net of estimated sublease income and planned company occupancy.

 

As of June 30, 2005, the total restructuring accrual of $11.4 million consisted of the following (in millions):

On June 29, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a business restructuring plan, primarily consisting of headcount reductions, designed to adjust expenses to a level more consistent with anticipated revenues.  The reduction by approximately 63 employees, or 22% of the Company’s workforce, is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2005.   It is expected that the Company will incur pre-tax severance costs of approximately $1.3 million, of which approximately $665,000 was incurred in the second quarter of 2005 and was charged to the restructuring accrual.  The Company expects to incur additional severance costs of approximately $600,000 in the third quarter of 2005. 

 

As mentioned above, the Company has based its excess facilities accrual, in part, upon estimates of future sublease income. The Company has used the following factors, among others, in making such estimates: opinions of independent real estate experts, current market conditions and rental rates, an assessment of the time period over which reasonable estimates could be made, the status of negotiations with potential subtenants, and the location of the respective facilities. The Company has recorded the low-end of a range of assumptions modeled for restructuring charges, in accordance with SFAS 5.  Adjustments to the facilities accrual will be required if actual sublease income differs from amounts currently expected. The Company will review the status of restructuring activities on a quarterly basis and, if appropriate, record changes to our restructuring obligations in current operations based on management’s most current estimates.

 

Note 7. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS 142. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer subject to amortization but are tested for impairment at least annually using a fair value approach, and whenever there is an impairment indicator. Other intangible assets continue to be valued and amortized over their estimated lives.

 

17



 

Pursuant to SFAS 142, the Company is required to test its goodwill for impairment upon adoption and annually or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.

 

The Company concluded that, based upon the market value of its stock in relation to the Company’s net book value at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, there was no additional impairment of goodwill warranted.

 

The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is highly subjective and requires significant judgment. In estimating the fair value of the Company, the Company made estimates and judgments about future revenues and cash flows. The Company’s forecasts were based on assumptions that are consistent with the plans and estimates the Company is using to manage the business. Changes in these estimates could change the Company’s conclusion regarding impairment of goodwill and potentially result in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge for all or a portion of the goodwill balance at June 30, 2005.

 

Additionally, upon adoption of SFAS 141 and SFAS 142, the Company no longer amortizes its non-technology based intangible asset, or assembled workforce. As of December 31, 2003, completed technology intangibles had been fully amortized.

 

Note 8.  Warrants

 

As of June 30, 2005, the following warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock were outstanding:

The warrant issued in connection with the real estate transaction has a term of five years and is exercisable beginning in August 2005.  The warrant issued in connection with the convertible notes also has a term of five years and became exercisable beginning in May 2005.

 

In accordance with EITF 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, the warrants have been included as a short-term liability and were originally valued at fair value on the date of issuance.  The warrants are revalued each period until and unless the warrants are exercised.  For the three-month and six months ended June 30, 2005, the Company recorded gains related to the revaluation of warrants to the landlord and note holders of $1.0 and $3.5 million, respectively.  These gains are included as a component of Restructuring charges and of Other income (expense), net, respectively, in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.  If the warrants are exercised prior to their termination, their carrying value will be transferred to equity.

 

Note 9.  Subsequent Events

 

On July 25, 2005, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Bravo Holdco, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Bravo Holdco”), and Bravo Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Bravo Holdco (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions therein, it is intended that the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub, and the Company’s separate corporate existence will thereupon cease, but Bravo Holdco may, at its option, elect to amend the Merger Agreement to provide for (i) the merger of Merger Sub or any other affiliate of Bravo Holdco or Bravo Holdco’s majority stockholder, Vector Capital Corporation, (“Vector”) with and into the Company, or (ii) the Company’s merger with and into any other affiliate of Bravo Holdco or Vector (the “Merger”).

 

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the holders of shares of the Company’s common stock (other than stockholders who exercise appraisal rights under Delaware law) that are outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger will receive $0.84 in cash for each share of common stock at the time of the consummation of the Merger (the “Effective Time”).  In addition, at the Effective Time, each vested stock option that is outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger will be automatically converted into an amount in cash equal to, for each share of common stock underlying such option, the excess (if any) of $0.84 over the per share exercise price of such option.

 

18



 

The consummation of the Merger is conditioned upon, among other things, the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, customary regulatory approvals and other closing conditions.  In order to induce Bravo Holdco to enter into the Merger Agreement, Dr. Pehong Chen, the Company’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, on behalf of himself and a trust of which he is a Trustee (the “Chen Trust”), has entered into a voting agreement with Bravo Holdco pursuant to which Dr. Chen has agreed, among other things, to vote all shares of the Company’s common stock held by himself and the Chen Trust in favor of the Merger and the adoption of the Merger Agreement. Dr. Chen and the Chen Trust hold an aggregate of 5,874,985 shares of common stock (approximately 17% of the outstanding shares of common stock on July 25, 2005) and options to purchase an additional 2,757,551 shares of common stock.

 

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights and expense reimbursement provisions in favor of both the Company and Bravo Holdco.  Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under certain specified conditions, the Company may be required to reimburse the documented transaction expenses of Bravo Holdco, Merger Sub and Vector, up to a maximum of $980,000.  Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under certain other specified conditions, BroadVision may be required to pay Bravo Holdco the greater of (i) this expense reimbursement or (ii) a termination fee of $862,600.

 

The Merger is expected to close in the late third or fourth quarter of 2005; however, there can be no assurance that the Merger will be consummated in that time period or at all.

 

In connection with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, Vector entered into a letter agreement in favor of the Company and Bravo Holdco pursuant to which, among other things, Vector committed to invest funds in Bravo Holdco as a source of funding for the Merger.  Vector’s commitment is conditioned only upon the prior fulfillment or waiver of each and all of the conditions precedent to Bravo Holdco’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Merger under the Merger Agreement.  Vector has expressed its desire to have Dr. Chen remain involved with the Company after the Merger and has entered into an arrangement with Dr. Chen under which Dr. Chen may purchase up to 9.5% of the equity securities of Bravo Holdco.

 

On July 25, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with certain of the holders of its outstanding convertible notes which were originally issued pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of November 10, 2004 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), regarding the treatment in connection with the Merger of the convertible notes and warrants issued to the noteholders under the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Noteholder Agreement”).  Under the terms of the Noteholder Agreement, all principal and accrued interest on the notes that is outstanding at the Effective Time of the Merger, together with certain other amounts payable to the noteholders, will be repaid within one business day following the Effective Time of the Merger and the notes and warrants will be extinguished.  Subject to our performance of our obligations under the Noteholder Agreement, the noteholders have consented to the completion of the Merger.

 

The Company’s entry into the Merger Agreement and the Noteholder Agreement is further described on the Schedule 14A filed on July 26, 2005 with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 29, 2005.

 

On July 28, 2005, representatives of the Company received copies of four complaints relating to purported class action lawsuits, each filed by an alleged holder of shares of our common stock and each filed in California Superior Court for the county of San Mateo. These complaints are captioned Gary Goberville, et al., vs. Pehong Chen, et al., Civ 448490, Cookie Schwartz, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448516, Leon Kotovich, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448518 and Anthony Noblett, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448519. Each claim names the Company’s directors and BroadVision, Inc. as defendants, and each alleges that the director defendants violated their fiduciary duties to stockholders by, among other things, failing to maximize the Company’s value and ignoring, or failing to adequately protect against, certain purported conflicts of interest. Each complaint seeks, among other things, injunctive relief and damages in an unspecified amount. The Company anticipates that similar actions may be filed in the future against some or all of the same defendants.

Overview

 

BroadVision solutions help customers rapidly increase revenues and reduce costs by moving interactions and transactions to personalized self service via the web. Our integrated self-service application suite—including process, commerce, portal and content—offers rich functionality out of the box, and is easily configured for each customer’s e-business environment.

 

Over 1,000 customers—including U.S. Air Force, Lockheed Martin, Netikos, Circuit City, Iberia L.A.E. and Vodafone—have licensed BroadVision solutions to power and personalize their mission-critical web initiatives.

 

Worldwide demand for enterprise software has declined significantly over the past several years. The decline in venture capital spending has resulted in fewer new companies with funding to, among other things, build an on-line business. Established companies have scaled back, delayed or cancelled web-based initiatives. As a result of these reasons and others, we have seen significant declines in our revenue over the past four fiscal years.

 

Our objective is to further our position as a leading supplier of web-based, self-service applications. This will require us to continue to build in new functionality to our applications that offer our customers a compelling value proposition to license our products rather than design and build custom solutions.

 

We generate revenue from fees for licenses of our software products, maintenance, consulting services and customer training. We generally charge fees for licenses of our software products either based on the number of persons registered to use the product or based on the number of CPUs on the machine on which the product is installed. Payment terms are generally thirty days from the date the products are delivered or the services are provided.

 

From 2001 to date, we have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations. In fiscal year 2004, we entered into a series of agreements to terminate significant excess lease obligations that were contributing to that negative cash flow. Under the terms of these agreements, we have incurred an obligation to pay $45 million, and our future cash outflows will be reduced by over $4 million per quarter. We believe that these transactions are an important step towards our goal of generating consistent positive cash flows, although we make no assurances about our ability to generate positive cash flows in future periods.

 

We strive to anticipate changes in the demand for our services and aggressively manage our labor force appropriately. Through our thorough budgeting process, cross-functional management participates in the planning, reviewing and managing of our business plans. This process allows us to adjust our cost structures to changing market needs, competitive landscapes and economic factors. Our emphasis on cost control helps us manage our margins even if revenues generated fall short of what we anticipated.

 

Recent Events

 

During the third and fourth quarters of 2004, we reached agreements with certain landlords to extinguish approximately $155.0 million of future real estate obligations. We made cash payments of $20.7 million in 2004, and an additional cash payment of $22.5 million in the first half of 2005.  In addition, we issued to one of the landlords a five-year warrant to purchase approximately 700,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, exercisable beginning in August 2005.  As a component of the settlement of one of the previous leases, we have a residual lease obligation beginning in 2007 of approximately $9.1 million. We may make an additional cash payment of $4.5 million if we exercise an option to terminate this residual real estate obligation prior to the lease term, which commences in January 2007. This option to terminate the residual lease obligation, discounted to net present value, is accounted for in accordance with SFAS 146 and is part of the non-current restructuring accrual of $6.6 million as of June 30, 2005.

 

In November 2004, we entered into a definitive agreement for the private placement of up to $20.0 million of convertible notes to five institutional investors. We issued an initial $16.0 million of notes which will be convertible, at the holders’ option, into common stock at a conversion price of $2.76 per share. The notes bear interest at a rate of six percent per annum, and we were originally obligated to repay the principal amount of the initial $16.0 million of notes in 15 equal monthly installments of $1.1 million, which began in June 2005.  Under the terms of the

 

20



 

notes the monthly principal repayment obligation will increase to $2.1 million beginning in September 2005 due to our cash balances falling below certain defined levels as of June 30, 2005.  This increase has the effect of requiring us to repay the principal amount in nine installments through April 2006. Payments of principal and interest may be made in either cash or, upon satisfaction of various conditions set forth in the notes, shares of our common stock. However, we anticipate having to use cash to satisfy all of our payment obligations under the notes.

 

On June 29, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a business restructuring plan, primarily consisting of headcount reductions, designed to adjust expenses to a level more consistent with anticipated revenues.  The reduction by approximately 63 employees, or 22% of our workforce, is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2005.  We expect that we will incur pre-tax severance costs of approximately $1.3 million, of which approximately $665,000 was incurred in the second quarter of 2005 and was charged to the restructuring accrual.  We expect to incur additional severance costs of approximately $600,000 in the third quarter of 2005.

 

On July 25, 2005, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with a newly-formed portfolio company of Vector Capital Corporation (“Vector”).  Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the holders of shares of our common stock (other than stockholders who exercise appraisal rights under Delaware law) that are outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the merger (the “Merger”) will receive $0.84 in cash for each share of common stock or intrinsic value of each stock option at the time of the consummation of the Merger (the “Effective Time”).  The consummation of the Merger is conditioned upon, among other things, the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock, customary regulatory approvals and other closing conditions.  The Merger is expected to close in the late third or fourth quarter of 2005; however, there can be no assurance that the Merger will be consummated in that time period or at all.

 

On July 25, 2005, we entered into an agreement with certain of the holders of the outstanding convertible notes which we originally issued in November 2004 under which all principal and accrued interest on the notes that is outstanding at the effective date of the Merger, together with certain other amounts payable to the noteholders, will be repaid within one business day following the Effective Time of the Merger and the notes and warrants will be extinguished.

 

On July 28, 2005, our representatives received copies of four complaints relating to purported class action lawsuits, each filed by an alleged holder of shares of our common stock and each filed in California Superior Court for the county of San Mateo. These complaints are captioned Gary Goberville, et al., vs. Pehong Chen, et al., Civ 448490, Cookie Schwartz, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448516, Leon Kotovich, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448518 and Anthony Noblett, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448519. Each claim names our directors and BroadVision, Inc. as defendants, and each alleges that the director defendants violated their fiduciary duties to stockholders by, among other things, failing to maximize our value and ignoring, or failing to adequately protect against, certain purported conflicts of interest. Each complaint seeks, among other things, injunctive relief and damages in an unspecified amount. We anticipate that similar actions may be filed in the future against some or all of the same defendants.

 

We have various credit facilities with a commercial lender, which include term debt in the form of notes payable, a revolving line of credit and an equipment line of credit. In June 2005, we entered into a renewed and amended loan and security agreement with the lender. The agreement requires us to maintain certain levels of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents (excluding equity investments), and to maintain certain levels on deposit with the lender. At June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, $15.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively, was outstanding under the line of credit. Borrowings under the line of credit are collateralized by all of our assets and bear interest at the bank’s prime rate. Interest is due monthly and principal is due at the expiration in February 2006.  As of July 1, 2005, the requirements we must meet in order to continue to access the credit facility became more stringent under the renewed and amended agreement, and we expect that, beginning in the third quarter of 2005 and for the foreseeable future, we will be unable to meet the new requirements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

This management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. In preparing these financial statements, we are required to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to doubtful accounts, product returns, investments, goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes and restructuring, as well as contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates using different

 

21



 

assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Overview — Our revenue consists of fees for licenses of our software products, maintenance, consulting services and customer training. We generally charge fees for licenses of our software products either based on the number of persons registered to use the product or based on the number of CPUs on the machine on which the product is installed. Licenses for software whereby fees charged are based upon the number of persons registered to use the product are differentiated between licenses for development use and licenses for use in deployment of the customer’s website. Licenses for software whereby fees charged are on a per-CPU basis do not differentiate between development and deployment usage. Our revenue recognition policies comply with the provisions of Statement of Position (“SOP”) No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended; SOP No. 98-9, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions and SAB 101.

 

Software License Revenue

 

We license our products through our direct sales force and indirectly through resellers. In general, software license revenues are recognized when a non-cancelable license agreement has been signed and the customer acknowledges an unconditional obligation to pay, the software product has been delivered, there are no uncertainties surrounding product acceptance, the fees are fixed and determinable and collection is considered probable. Delivery is considered to have occurred when title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer, which generally occurs when media containing the licensed programs is provided to a common carrier. In case of electronic delivery, delivery occurs when the customer is given access to the licensed programs.  For products that cannot be used without a licensing key, the delivery requirement is met when the licensing key is made available to the customer. If collectibility is not considered probable, revenue is recognized when the fee is collected. Subscription-based license revenues are recognized ratably over the subscription period. We enter into reseller arrangements that typically provide for sublicense fees payable to the us based upon a percentage of list price. We do not grant resellers the right of return.

 

We recognize revenue using the residual method pursuant to the requirements of SOP No. 97-2, as amended by SOP No. 98-9. Revenues recognized from multiple-element software arrangements are allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the fair values of the elements, such as licenses for software products, maintenance, consulting services or customer training. The determination of fair value is based on objective evidence, which is specific to us. We limit its assessment of objective evidence for each element to either the price charged when the same element is sold separately or the price established by management having the relevant authority to do so, for an element not yet sold separately. If evidence of fair value of all undelivered elements exists but evidence does not exist for one or more delivered elements, then revenue is recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue.

 

We record unearned revenue for software license agreements when cash has been received from the customer and the agreement does not qualify for revenue recognition under our revenue recognition policy. We record accounts receivable for software license agreements when the agreement qualifies for revenue recognition but cash or other consideration has not been received from the customer.

 

Services Revenue

 

Consulting services revenues and customer training revenues are recognized as such services are performed. Maintenance revenues, which include revenues bundled with software license agreements that entitle the customers to technical support and future unspecified enhancements to our products, are deferred and recognized ratably over the related agreement period, generally twelve months.

 

Our consulting services, which consist of consulting, maintenance and training, are delivered through the BroadVision Global Services (“BVGS”) organization. Services that we provide are not essential to the functionality of the software. We record reimbursement from our customers for out-of-pocket expenses as an increase to services revenues.

 

Allowances and Reserves

 

Occasionally, our customers experience financial difficulty after we record the revenue but before we are paid. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. Our normal payment terms are 30 to 90 days from invoice date. If the financial condition of our

 

22



 

customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

 

Impairment Assessments

 

We adopted SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002. This standard requires that goodwill no longer be amortized, and instead, be tested for impairment on a periodic basis.

 

Pursuant to SFAS 142, we are required to test goodwill for impairment upon adoption and annually or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. While there was no accounting charge to record upon adoption, at September 30, 2002, we concluded that, based on the existence of impairment indicators, including a decline in our market value, we would be required to test goodwill for impairment. SFAS 142 provides for a two-stage approach to determining whether and by how much goodwill has been impaired. Since we have only one reporting unit for purposes of applying SFAS 142, the first stage requires a comparison of the fair value of the Company to its net book value. If the fair value is greater, then no impairment is deemed to have occurred. If the fair value is less, then the second stage must be completed to determine the amount, if any, of actual impairment. We completed the first stage and determined that our fair value at September 30, 2002 exceeded our net book value on that date and, as a result, no impairment of goodwill was recorded in the consolidated financial statements. We obtained an independent appraisal of fair value to support our conclusion. We also determined that our fair value exceeded our net book value as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 and, therefore, no additional impairment was warranted.

 

The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is highly subjective and requires significant judgment. In estimating our fair value, we made estimates and judgments about future revenues and cash flows. Our forecasts were based on assumptions that are consistent with the plans and estimates we are using to manage our business. Changes in these estimates could change our conclusion regarding impairment of goodwill and potentially result in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge, for all or a portion of the goodwill balance at June 30, 2005. For long-lived assets, accounting standards dictate that assets become impaired when the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by them are less than their carrying amounts. When that occurs, the affected assets are written down to their estimated fair value.

 

Deferred Tax Assets

 

We analyze our deferred tax assets with regard to potential realization. We have established a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets to the extent that we determined that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized based upon the uncertainty of their realization. We have considered estimated future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the amount of the valuation allowance.

 

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

 

We apply APB 25 and related interpretations when accounting for our stock option and stock purchase plans. In accordance with APB 25, we apply the intrinsic value method in accounting for employee stock options. Accordingly, we generally recognize no compensation expense with respect to stock-based awards to employees.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company recorded compensation income of $15,000 as a result of granting common stock to a third party consultant. These charges were calculated based upon the market value of the underlying stock.

 

We have determined pro forma information regarding net loss and net loss per share as if we had accounted for employee stock options under the fair value method as required by SFAS 123.  The fair value of these stock-based awards to employees was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock option plan and employee stock purchase plan been determined consistent with SFAS 123, the Company’s reported net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share would have been changed to the amounts indicated below (in thousands, except per share data, unaudited):

Restructuring Charges

 

Through June 30, 2005, we have approved restructuring plans to, among other things, reduce our workforce and consolidate facilities. Restructuring and asset impairment charges were taken to align our cost structure with changing market conditions and to create a more efficient organization. Our restructuring charges are comprised primarily of: (i) severance and benefits termination costs related to the reduction of our workforce; (ii) lease termination costs and/or costs associated with permanently vacating our facilities; (iii) other incremental costs incurred as a direct result of the restructuring plan; and (iv) impairment costs related to certain long-lived assets abandoned. We account for each of these costs in accordance with SAB 100.

 

Severance and Termination Costs. We account for severance and benefits termination costs as follows:

 

                  For exit or disposal activities initiated on or prior to December 31, 2002, we account for costs in accordance with EITF 94-3.  Accordingly, we record the liability related to these termination costs when the following conditions have been met: (i) management with the appropriate level of authority approves a termination plan that commits us to such plan and establishes the benefits the employees will receive upon termination; (ii) the benefit arrangement is communicated to the employees in sufficient detail to enable the employees to determine the termination benefits; (iii) the plan specifically identifies the number of employees to be terminated, their locations and their job classifications; and (iv) the period of time to implement the plan does not indicate changes to the plan are likely.

 

                  For exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, we account for costs in accordance with SFAS 146.  SFAS 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value only when the liability is incurred.

 

Excess Facilities Costs. We account for excess facilities costs as follows:

 

                  For exit or disposal activities initiated on or prior to December 31, 2002, we account for lease termination and/or abandonment costs in accordance with EITF 88-10, Costs Associated with Lease Modification or Termination. Accordingly, we recorded the costs associated with lease termination and/or abandonment when the leased property had no substantive future use or benefit to us.

 

                  For exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, we account for lease termination and/or abandonment costs in accordance with SFAS 146, which requires that a liability for such costs be recognized and measured initially at fair value on the cease use date of the facility.

 

Severance and termination costs and excess facilities costs we record under these provisions are not associated with nor do they benefit continuing activities.

 

Inherent in the estimation of the costs related to our restructuring efforts are assessments related to the most likely expected outcome of the significant actions to accomplish the restructuring. In determining the charges related to the restructurings to date, the majority of estimates made by management have related to charges for excess facilities. In determining the charges for excess facilities, we were required to estimate future sublease income, future net operating

 

24



 

expenses of the facilities, and brokerage commissions, among other expenses. The most significant of these estimates have related to the timing and extent of future sublease income in which to reduce our lease obligations. We based our estimates of sublease income, in part, on the opinions of independent real estate experts, current market conditions and rental rates, an assessment of the time period over which reasonable estimates could be made, the status of negotiations with potential subtenants, and the location of the respective facility, among other factors. The Company has recorded the low-end of a range of assumptions modeled for restructuring charges, in accordance with SFAS 5.  Adjustments to the facilities accrual will be required if actual lease exit costs or sublease income differ from amounts currently expected. We will review the status of restructuring activities on a quarterly basis and, if appropriate, record changes to our restructuring obligations in current operations based on management’s most current estimates.

 

As of June 30, 2005, the total restructuring accrual of $11.4 million consisted of the following (in millions):

As mentioned above, we have based our excess facilities accrual, in part, upon estimates of future sublease income. We have used the following factors, among others, in making such estimates: opinions of independent real estate experts, current market conditions and rental rates, an assessment of the time period over which reasonable estimates could be made, the status of negotiations with potential subtenants, and the location of the respective facilities. We recorded the low-end of a range of assumptions modeled for restructuring charges, in accordance with SFAS 5.  Adjustments to the facilities accrual will be required if actual sublease income differs from amounts currently expected. We will review the status of restructuring activities on a quarterly basis and, if appropriate, record changes to our restructuring obligations in current operations based on management’s most current estimates.

 

Legal Matters

 

Our current estimated range of liability related to pending litigation is based on claims for which it is probable that a liability has been incurred and we can estimate the amount and range of loss. We have recorded the minimum estimated liability related to those claims, where there is a range of loss. Because of the uncertainties related to both the determination of the probability of an unfavorable outcome and the amount and range of loss in the event of an unfavorable outcome, we are unable to make a reasonable estimate of the liability that could result from the remaining pending litigation. As additional information becomes available, we will assess the potential liability related to its pending litigation and revise our estimates, if necessary. Such revisions in our estimates of the potential liability could materially impact our results of operations and financial position.

 

On June 10, 2004, MetLife filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, naming us as a defendant. The complaint alleged that we were liable for unlawful detainer of premises leased from the plaintiff. The plaintiff thereafter filed a First Amended Complaint alleging that we no longer held possession of the

 

26



 

premises but was in breach of the lease. In February 2005, MetLife reached agreement with us and executed documents regarding a settlement of the pending lawsuit under which we will pay MetLife an aggregate of $1.9 million in consideration for termination of the lease, dismissal of the lawsuit and in full settlement of approximately $3.1 million of past and future lease obligations. The first of three installment payments was made in February 2005, with the second made in May 2005 and the third due in September 2005.

 

On July 28, 2005, representatives of the Company received copies of four complaints relating to purported class action lawsuits, each filed by an alleged holder of shares of our common stock and each filed in California Superior Court for the county of San Mateo. These complaints are captioned Gary Goberville, et al., vs. Pehong Chen, et al., Civ 448490, Cookie Schwartz, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448516, Leon Kotovich, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448518 and Anthony Noblett, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448519. Each claim names the Company’s directors and BroadVision, Inc. as defendants, and each alleges that the director defendants violated their fiduciary duties to stockholders by, among other things, failing to maximize the Company’s value and ignoring, or failing to adequately protect against, certain purported conflicts of interest. Each complaint seeks, among other things, injunctive relief and damages in an unspecified amount. The Company anticipates that similar actions may be filed in the future against some or all of the same defendants.

The Company operates in a competitive industry. There have been declines in both the technology industry and in general economic conditions since the beginning of 2001. These declines may continue. Financial comparisons discussed herein may not be indicative of future performance.

Software license revenues decreased 52% during the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $3.4 million as compared to $7.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.  Software license revenue decreased 48% during the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $7.8 million as compared to $14.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004.  License revenue in all areas declined due to softening demand for enterprise software applications and to the selling challenges created by our deteriorating financial condition.

 

Services revenues consisting of consulting revenues, customer training revenues and maintenance revenues decreased 7% during the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $12.1 million as compared to $13.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.  Services revenues decreased 8% during the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $24.1 million as compared to $26.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004.  The decrease in service revenues was primarily attributable to lower maintenance revenue.  Maintenance revenues decreased 11% for the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $7.0 million as compared to $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.  Maintenance revenues decreased 14% for the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $13.8 million as compared to $16.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Maintenance revenue decreased due to a decline in customer licenses and certain existing customers declining the renewal of annual maintenance services.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of software license revenues includes the costs of product media, duplication, packaging and other manufacturing costs, as well as royalties payable to third parties for software that is either embedded in, or bundled and licensed with, our products.

 

Cost of services consists primarily of employee-related costs, third-party consultant fees incurred on consulting projects, post-contract customer support and instructional training services. A summary of our cost of revenues is as follows (dollars in thousands, unaudited):

Cost of (credit for) software licenses decreased in absolute dollar terms during the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $(186,000) as compared to $313,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004.  The cost of software licenses decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $(243,000) as compared to $891,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004.  This decrease was primarily due to the reversal of some royalty costs no longer considered payable.

 

Cost of services decreased 11% in absolute dollar terms during the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $5.6 million as compared to $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.  The cost of services decreased 9% during the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $11.6 million as compared to $12.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004.  This decline was attributable to lower consulting headcount in Europe and the Middle East regions and lower customer support headcount in the Americas.  This was partially offset by an increase in consulting spending in the Americas.

 

Operating Expenses and Other Income, net

 

Operating expenses consists of the following:

 

                  Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, employee-related benefit costs and consulting fees incurred in association with the development of our products. Costs incurred for the research and development of new software products are expensed as incurred until such time that technological feasibility, in the form of a working model, is established at which time such costs are capitalized and recorded at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. The costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of a working model but prior to general release of the product have not been significant. To

 

28



 

date, we have not capitalized any costs related to the development of software for external use.

 

                  Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, employee-related benefit costs, commissions and other incentive compensation, travel and entertainment and marketing program-related expenditures such as collateral materials, trade shows, public relations, advertising, and creative services.

 

                  General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, employee-related benefit costs, provisions and credits related to uncollectible accounts receivable and professional service fees.

 

                  Restructuring charges represent costs incurred to restructure company operations. These charges, including charges for excess facilities, severance and certain non-cash items, were recorded under the provisions of EITF 94-3, and SFAS 146.

 

A summary of operating expenses is set forth in the following table. The percentage of expenses is calculated based on total revenues (dollars in thousands, unaudited):

Research and development expenses decreased 12% during the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $4.0 million as compared to $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.  The decrease in research and development expenses was primarily attributable to reduced headcount as a result of natural attrition and lower overhead allocations.

 

Research and development decreased 12% during the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $8.2 million as compared to $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004.  The decrease for the six month period was primarily attributable to lower depreciation costs for fully depreciated assets and headcount reductions as a result of our cost-cutting efforts.

 

Sales and marketing expenses decreased 32% during the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $5.1 million as compared to $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.  Sales and marketing decreased 24% during the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $10.9 million as compared to $14.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The decreases were primarily attributable to turnover in the sales organization combined with lower commissions on lower license revenue.

 

General and administrative expenses increased 18% during the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $2.8 million as compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.  General and administrative expenses increased 11% during the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $5.4 million as compared to $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004.  The increase was primarily attributable to a $562,000 reduction of accounts receivable and sales reserves in the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to a reduction of $100,000 recorded in the same period in 2005

 

Restructuring charges. Through June 30, 2005, the Company has approved restructuring plans to, among other things, reduce its workforce and consolidate facilities. Restructuring and asset impairment charges were taken to align the Company’s cost structure with changing market conditions and to create a more efficient organization. Our restructuring charges are comprised primarily of: (i) severance and benefits termination costs related to the reduction of our workforce; (ii) lease termination costs and/or costs associated with permanently vacating our facilities; (iii) other incremental costs incurred as a direct result of the restructuring plan; and (iv) impairment costs related to certain long-lived assets abandoned. We account for each of these costs in accordance with SAB 100.

The excess facilities credit for the three and six-months ended June 30, 2005 related primarily to an adjustment of $264,000 and $ 1.0 million, respectively, to fair value of the warrant issued to a previous landlord as part of a lease settlement in 2004.  The excess facilities charge for the three-months ended June 30, 2004, primarily related to the adjustment of accrued interest on excess facilities obligations that were discounted under SFAS 146.  The severance and termination costs for both periods reflect adjusted severance, payroll taxes and COBRA benefits related to restructuring plans implemented prior to the end of the period. The Company recorded these charges at the low-end of a range of assumptions modeled for the restructuring charges, in accordance with SFAS 5.  Adjustments to the restructuring accruals will be made in future periods, if necessary, based upon the then current actual events and circumstances.

 

Interest (expense) income, net for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was an expense of $1.1 million as compared to income of $102,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004.  Interest (expense) income, net for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was an expense of $1.8 million as compared to income of $211,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004.  Interest expense increased in the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 due to the outstanding convertible notes issued in November 2004.  Interest income has declined year-over-year due to lower cash balances and lower interest rates being earned on invested funds.

 

Other (expense) income, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was a net income of $313,000 as compared to expenses of $45,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Other (expense) income, net for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was an income of $3.4 million as compared to expense of $178,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004.  The increase in income in the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to recognition of a gain of $732,000 and $2.5 million, respectively, on the revaluing of common stock warrants for warrants issued in connection with the convertible note offering in November 2004 to fair value as of June 30, 2005, partially offset by $480,000 of convertible note filing penalties incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2005

 

Income Taxes. During the three months ended June 30, 2005, we recorded a tax provision of $70,000 as compared to a tax benefit of $6,000 for three months ended June 30, 2004.  During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we recorded a tax benefit of $2.0 million as compared to a provision of $130,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2004.  The tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to estimates for income taxes to be paid in our foreign jurisdictions. For the three months ended June 30, 2004, the tax benefit of $6,000 related to reversal of income tax accruals.  The benefit in the six months ended June 30, 2005 related to reversal of amounts previously accrued for expected income taxes.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Overview

 

Due to a combination of factors, we currently anticipate that our available cash resources will likely be insufficient to meet our payment obligations by some point in the fourth quarter of 2005. The factors contributing to this belief include lower-than-anticipated revenues in 2005, costs associated with the Merger and cash payment requirements under our outstanding convertible notes. If our cash resources become insufficient to meet our obligations as they become due, our business and future prospects would be seriously harmed and our ability to operate the business and complete the merger could be jeopardized. The Merger is subject to numerous conditions, including the approval of our stockholders, that could considerably delay or even prevent its completion, and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing under our existing bank credit facility or otherwise. The requirements we must meet in order to obtain financing under our bank credit facility became more stringent in July 2005, and we presently anticipate being unable to meet the new requirements for the foreseeable future. In order to obtain financing from any other source, we would be required to obtain the approval of both the Vector Capital portfolio company with which we have agreed to merge and the holders of our outstanding convertible notes.

 

If the Merger is not consummated, we will be required to raise additional funds and we may be unable to do so on terms acceptable to us or at all. Our ability to obtain debt or equity funding would depend on a number of factors, including restrictive covenants contained in our current convertible note agreement and credit facilities, market conditions, our operating performance and investor interest. If adequate additional funding were not available to us, we would have insufficient working capital to continue executing our current business plan. Even if additional funding were available to us, our indebtedness and debt service obligations could continue to increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, limit

our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we compete, and place us at a competitive disadvantage to less leveraged competitors and those with better access to capital resources.

 

As of June 30, 2005, cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash and investments totaled $30.7 million, which represents a decrease of $35.4 million as compared to a balance of $66.1 million on December 31, 2004. This decrease was primarily attributable to net cash used for operations, payment of lease settlement obligations and payments of debt related obligations during the six months ended June 30, 2005.

During the third and fourth quarters of 2004, we reached agreements with certain landlords to extinguish approximately $155.0 million of future real estate obligations. We made related cash payments of $20.7 million in 2004 and additional cash payments of $22.8 million in the first half of 2005.  In addition, we issued to one of the landlords a five-year warrant to purchase approximately 700,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, exercisable beginning in August 2005.  As a component of the settlement of one of the previous leases, we have a residual lease obligation beginning in 2007 of approximately $9.1 million. We may make an additional cash payment of $4.5 million if we exercise an option to terminate this residual real estate obligation prior to the commencement of the lease term (January 2007). This option to terminate the residual lease obligation, discounted to net present value, is accounted for in accordance with SFAS 146 and is part of the non-current restructuring accrual of $6.6 million as of June 30, 2005.

 

In November 2004, we entered into a definitive agreement for the private placement of up to $20.0 million of convertible notes to five institutional investors.  We issued an initial $16.0 million of convertible notes which are convertible, at the holders’ option, into common stock at a conversion price of $2.76 per share. The notes bear interest at a rate of six percent per annum, and we were originally obligated to repay the principal amount of the initial $16.0 million of notes in 15 equal monthly installments of $1.1 million, which began in June 2005.  Under the terms of the notes, the monthly principal repayment obligation will increase to $2.1 million beginning in September 2005 due to our cash balances falling below certain defined levels as of June 30, 2005.  This increase has the effect of requiring us to repay the principal amount in nine installments through April 2006.  Payments of principal and interest may be made in either cash or, upon satisfaction of various conditions set forth in the notes, shares of our common stock. However, we anticipate having to use cash to satisfy all of our payment obligations under the notes.

 

On May 9, 2005, by agreement between us and the holders of a majority of the notes, one of the agreements governing the notes was amended to extend by 120 days the time within which we are required to obtain effectiveness of a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of our common stock that may be issued in respect of the notes.  Unexpected delays in obtaining effectiveness of the SEC registration statement relating to the notes are causing us to incur additional penalty payments to the note holders at a rate of $160,000 per month and to make principal, interest and penalty payments in cash rather than common stock.

 

The convertible notes allow the noteholders to require redemption of the notes upon the occurrence of various events of default, such as : 1) the termination of trading of our common stock on the Nasdaq National Market, 2) specified change of control transactions, or 3) the failure of the registration statement required to be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement to be declared effective by the SEC on or before May 9, 2005.  On May 9, 2005, we and the noteholders amended the Registration Rights Agreement to extend the deadline to September 6, 2005 although as described above, we are making penalty payments to the noteholders at a rate of $160,000 per month, which payments will continue until such time as the required registration statement is declared effective by the SEC.  Some of the events of defaults include matters over which we may have some, little or no control.  Many other events of default are described in the agreements we executed when we issued the convertible notes.  In such a situation, if an event of default occurs, we may be required to redeem all or part of the convertible notes including payment of applicable interest and penalties. These payments must be made within 5 business days of receipt of a notice of redemption. We may have insufficient funds to redeem the convertible notes when and if required, and any such redemption, if made, could leave us with little or no working capital for our business. We have not established a sinking fund for payment of our outstanding convertible notes, nor do we anticipate doing so. Under an agreement we entered into with certain of the noteholders on July 25, 2005, the noteholders have consented to the completion of the Merger, subject to our performance of our payment and other obligations under the agreement.

On June 29, 2005, our Board of Directors approved a business restructuring plan, primarily consisting of headcount reductions, designed to adjust expenses to a level more consistent with anticipated revenues.  The reduction of approximately 63 employees, or 22% of our workforce, is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2005.  We expect that it will incur pre-tax severance costs of approximately $1.3 million, of which approximately $665,000 was incurred in the second quarter of 2005 and $600,000 is expected to be incurred in the third quarter of 2005.

 

We have various credit facilities with a commercial lender which include term debt in the form of notes payable, a revolving line of credit and an equipment line of credit. In June 2005, we entered into a renewed and amended loan and security agreement with the lender. The agreement requires us to maintain certain levels of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents (excluding equity investments), and to maintain certain levels on deposit with the lender. At June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, $15.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively, was outstanding under the line of credit. Borrowings under the line of credit are collateralized by all of our assets and bear interest at the bank’s prime rate. Interest is due monthly and principal is due at the expiration in February 2006.  The requirements we must meet in order to continue to access the credit facility became more stringent under the renewed and amended agreement, and we expect that, beginning in the third quarter of 2005 and for the foreseeable future, we will be unable to meet the new requirements.

 

Commitments totaling $3.9 million and $24.3 million in the form of standby letters of credit were issued on our behalf from financial institutions as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, primarily in favor of our various landlords to secure obligations under our facility leases.  Accordingly, $3.9 million and $24.3 million have been presented as restricted cash in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.

 

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio. We had no derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004. We place our investments in instruments that meet high credit quality standards and the amount of credit exposure to any one issue, issuer and type of instrument is limited.  Our interest rate risk related to borrowings historically has been minimal as interest expense related to adjustable rate borrowings has been immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004.

 

Cash Provided By (Used For) Operating Activities

 

Cash used for operating activities was $30.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.  The primary reason for the net cash used by operating activities was due to the payment of accrued liabilities related to restructuring of $22.2 million.  Other significant adjustments to reconcile net income to cash used for operating activities included the non-cash gain on sale of cost method investments of $1.1 million, the non-cash release of income tax reserves of $2.0 million, and the gain on revaluation of warrants to fair value of $3.5 million.  Cash used for operating activities was $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. This use of cash was primarily due to the net loss of $2.4 million and decreases in accrued expenses and non-current liabilities, primarily related to excess facilities costs.  Partially offsetting these uses of cash were $2.3 million of non-cash depreciation and amortization expense and a decrease in accounts receivable of $3.4 million due to reduced revenue.

 

Cash Provided By (Used For) Investing Activities

 

Cash provided by investing activities was $21.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and was primarily due to transfers from restricted cash of $19.7 million and proceeds from dividends of $1.1 million. Cash used by investing activities was $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and was primarily due to transfers to restricted cash.  Capital expenditures were $108,000 and $318,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.  Our capital expenditures consisted of purchases of operating resources to manage our operations and consisted primarily of computer hardware and software.

 

Cash Provided By (Used For) Financing Activities

 

Cash used for financing activities was $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, consisting of $6.5 million used for repayment of borrowings, net of new borrowings, offset by $522,000 funds received for the issuance of common stock.  Cash provided by financing activities was $769,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, consisting of $1.2 million in proceeds from the issuance of common stock and $416,000 for repayment of borrowings, net of new borrowings.

Factors That May Affect Future Operating Results

 

Due to a combination of factors, we currently anticipate that our available cash resources will likely be insufficient to meet our payment obligations by some point in the fourth quarter of 2005. The factors contributing to this belief include lower-than-anticipated revenues in 2005, costs associated with the Merger and cash payment requirements under our outstanding convertible notes. If our cash resources become insufficient to meet our obligations as they become due, our business and future prospects would be seriously harmed and our ability to operate the business and complete the merger could be jeopardized. The Merger is subject to numerous conditions, including the approval of our stockholders, that could considerably delay or even prevent its completion, and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing under our existing bank credit facility or otherwise. The requirements we must meet in order to obtain financing under our bank credit facility became more stringent in July 2005, and we presently anticipate being unable to meet the new requirements for the foreseeable future. In order to obtain financing from any other source, we would be required to obtain the approval of both the Vector Capital portfolio company with which we have agreed to merge and the holders of our outstanding convertible notes.

 

If the Merger is not consummated, we will be required to raise additional funds and we may be unable to do so on terms acceptable to us or at all. Our ability to obtain debt or equity funding would depend on a number of factors, including restrictive covenants contained in our current convertible note agreement and credit facilities, market conditions, our operating performance and investor interest. If adequate additional funding were not available to us, we would have insufficient working capital to continue executing our current business plan. Even if additional funding were available to us, our indebtedness and debt service obligations could continue to increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we compete, and place us at a competitive disadvantage to less leveraged competitors and those with better access to capital resources.

The convertible notes allow the noteholders to require redemption of the notes upon the occurrence of various events of default, such as : 1) the termination of trading of our common stock on the Nasdaq National Market, 2) specified change of control transactions, or 3) the failure of the registration statement required to be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement to be declared effective by the SEC on or before May 9, 2005.  On May 9, 2005, we and the noteholders amended the Registration Rights Agreement to extend the deadline to September 6, 2005 although as described above, we are making penalty payments to the noteholders at a rate of $160,000 per month, which payments will continue until such time as the required registration statement is declared effective by the SEC.  Some of the events of defaults include matters over which we may have some, little or no control.  Many other events of default are described in the agreements we executed when we issued the convertible notes.  In such a situation, if an event of default occurs, we may be required to redeem all or part of the convertible notes including payment of applicable interest and penalties. These payments must be made within 5 business days of receipt of a notice of redemption. We may have insufficient funds to redeem the convertible notes when and if required, and any such redemption, if made, could leave us with little or no working capital for our business. We have not established a sinking fund for payment of our outstanding convertible notes, nor do we anticipate doing so. Under an agreement we entered into with certain of the noteholders on July 25, 2005, the noteholders have consented to the completion of the Merger, subject to our performance of our payment and other obligations under the agreement.

 

Our net future cash flows will depend heavily on the level of future revenues, the amount of cash we are required to use for payment under the notes, our ability to restructure operations successfully and our ability to manage infrastructure costs.

 

On July 28, 2005, representatives of ours received copies of four complaints relating to purported class action lawsuits, each filed by an alleged holder of shares of our common stock and each filed in California Superior Court for the county of San Mateo. These complaints are captioned Gary Goberville, et al., vs. Pehong Chen, et al., Civ 448490, Cookie Schwartz, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448516, Leon Kotovich, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448518 and Anthony Noblett, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448519. Each claim names our directors and BroadVision, Inc. as defendants, and each alleges that the director defendants violated their fiduciary duties to our stockholders by, among other things, failing to maximize our value and ignoring, or failing to adequately protect against, certain purported conflicts of interest. Each complaint seeks, among other things, injunctive relief and damages in an unspecified amount. We anticipate that similar actions may be filed in the future against some or all of the same defendants. This litigation, as well as any other securities class-action litigation that might be initiated against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

 

We may experience significant fluctuations in quarterly operating results that may be caused by many factors including, but not limited to, those discussed below and herein, as set out in Items 7 and 7A in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 and elsewhere therein and as disclosed in other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Significant fluctuations in future quarterly operating results may be caused by many factors including, among others, the timing of introductions or enhancements of products and services by us or our competitors, market acceptance of new products, the mix of our products sold, changes in pricing policies by us or our competitors, our ability to retain customers, changes in our sales incentive plans, budgeting cycles of our customers, customer order deferrals in anticipation of new products or enhancements by us or our competitors, nonrenewal of maintenance agreements, product life cycles, changes in strategy, seasonal trends, the mix of distribution channels through which our products are sold, the mix of international and domestic sales, the rate at which new sales people become productive, changes in the level of operating expenses to support projected growth and general economic conditions. We anticipate that a significant portion of our revenues will be derived from a limited number of orders, and the timing of receipt and fulfillment of any such orders is expected to cause material fluctuations in our operating results, particularly on a quarterly basis. Due to the foregoing factors, quarterly revenues and operating results are difficult to forecast, and we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating results will not necessarily be meaningful and should not be relied upon as any indication of future performance. It is likely that our future quarterly operating results from time to time will not meet the expectations of market analysts or investors, which may have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock.

 

We are continuing efforts to reduce and control our expense structure. We believe strict cost containment and expense reductions are essential to achieving positive cash flow and profitability. A number of factors could preclude us from successfully bringing costs and expenses in line with our revenues, including unplanned uses of cash, the inability to accurately forecast business activities and further deterioration of our revenues. If we are not able to effectively reduce our costs and achieve an expense structure commensurate with our business activities and revenues, we may have inadequate levels of cash for operations or for capital requirements, which could significantly harm our ability to operate our business.

 

We renewed and amended our revolving credit facility during the June 2005. The facility is secured by substantially all of our owned assets. The primary financial covenant under the facility obligates us to maintain certain levels of available cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments (excluding equity investments). Falling below such levels would be an event of default for which the bank may, among other things, accelerate the payment of the facility.  As of July 1, 2005, the requirements we must meet in order to continue to access the credit facility became more stringent under the renewed and amended agreement, and we expect that, beginning in the third

 

34



 

quarter of 2005 and for the foreseeable future, we will be unable to meet the new requirements.

 

Our success depends largely on the skills, experience and performance of key personnel. If we lose one or more key personnel, our business could be harmed. Our future success depends on our ability to continue attracting and retaining highly skilled personnel. We may not be successful in attracting, assimilating and retaining qualified personnel in the future. Furthermore, the significant downturn in our business environment had a negative impact on our operations. We are currently restructuring our operations and have taken actions to reduce our workforce and implement other cost containment activities. These actions could lead to disruptions in our business, reduced employee morale and productivity, increased attrition and problems with retaining existing employees and recruiting future employees and increased financial costs.

 

Some of these risks and uncertainties relate to the rapidly evolving nature of the markets in which we operate. These related market risks include, among other things, the evolution of the online commerce market, the dependence of online commerce on the development of the Internet and its related infrastructure, the uncertainty pertaining to widespread adoption of online commerce and the risk of government regulation of the Internet. Other risks and uncertainties relate to our ability to, among other things, successfully implement our marketing strategies, respond to competitive developments, continue to develop and upgrade our products and technologies more rapidly than our competitors, and commercialize our products and services by incorporating these enhanced technologies. There can be no assurance that we will succeed in addressing any or all of these risks.

 

There has been a general downturn in the Unites States of America and global economy.  If the economic environment continues to decline or if the current global slowdown worsens or becomes prolonged, our future results may be significantly impacted. We believe that the current economic decline has increased the average length of our sales cycle and our operating results could suffer and our stock price could decline if we do not achieve the level of revenues we expect.  Financial comparisons discussed herein may not be indicative of future performance.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio. We had no derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004. We place our investments in instruments that meet high credit quality standards and the amount of credit exposure to any one issue, issuer and type of instrument is limited.  Our interest rate risk related to borrowings historically has been minimal as interest expense related to adjustable rate borrowings has been immaterial for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2005 we drew down $15.0 million on our revolving line of credit.  Interest is payable monthly at the bank’s prime rate with a floor minimum of 4.25% (6.0% annually as of June 30, 2005) and principal is due in full in February 2006.  Additionally, we have two outstanding term loans and an equipment line of credit as of June 30, 2005.  Interest on those loans are at the bank’s prime rate (6.0% as of June 30, 2005) and prime rate plus 1.25%.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

We consider all debt and equity securities with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Our short-term investments consist of debt and equity securities that are classified as available-for-sale. Our debt securities are carried at fair value with related unrealized gains or losses reported as other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax.

 

Our cash, and cash equivalents, at cost, which approximates fair value, consisted of the following as of June 30, 2005 (in thousands, unaudited)

Included in the table above in cash and cash equivalents are non-current restricted cash of $2.3 million.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial assets that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, and trade accounts receivable. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents with two separate financial institutions. We market and sell our products throughout the world and perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers. We maintain reserves for potential credit losses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, no one customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenue or accounts receivable.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Our financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt. We do not have any derivative financial instruments. We believe the reported carrying amounts of its financial instruments approximates fair value, based upon the short maturity of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and payable, and based on the current rates available to it on similar debt issues.

 

Foreign Currency

 

We license our products and maintain significant operations in foreign countries. Fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies, principally the Euro, relative to the United States dollar have impacted our operating results in the past and may do so in the future. We expect that international license, maintenance and consulting revenues will continue to account for a significant portion of our total revenues in the future. We pay the expenses of our international operations in local currencies and do not currently engage in hedging transactions with respect to such obligations.

 

Equity Investments

 

Our equity investments consist of investments in public and non-public companies that are accounted for under the cost method of accounting. Equity investments are accounted for under the cost method of accounting when we have a minority interest and do not have the ability to exercise significant influence. These investments are classified as available for sale and are carried at fair value when readily determinable market values exist or at cost when such market values do not exist. Adjustments to fair value are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income unless the investments are considered permanently impaired in which case the adjustment is recorded as a component of other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

We had no long-term equity investments in public and non-public companies as of June 30, 2005. There were not any “other than temporary write-down” during the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 related to long-term equity investments.

 

ITEM 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) for our company. Based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2005, the end of the period covered by this report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

We reported three material weaknesses as of December 31, 2004 in our annual report on Form 10-K.  During the six months ended June 2005, in part to remediate those weaknesses, we implemented the following changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  We:

 

36



 

                  reviewed with senior management and the audit committee of its board of directors the issues which led to the three material weaknesses;

 

                  made significant enhancements to account reconciliations to provide more thorough account analyses;

 

                  established clear responsibilities among our accounting personnel and increased their formal interaction and coordination;

 

                  increased our chief financial officer’s responsibilities for overseeing more routine accounting matters until all open positions are filled;

 

                  developed a detailed database of worldwide maintenance revenues by contract and developed key reports from that data. The reports have been designed to detect errors or omissions related to key maintenance data. Further, we have trained the revenue accounting team on how to carefully analyze the reports to ensure that inaccuracies are detected and corrected.

 

We believe that the corrective steps taken above have sufficiently remediated these material weaknesses.  However, the market for skilled accounting personnel is competitive, and due to the restructuring efforts as of June 30, 2005 and the significant recent events, we may have difficulty in retaining our staff.  Our inability to staff the department with competent personnel with sufficient training may affect our internal controls over financial reporting to the extent that we may not be able to prevent or detect material misstatements.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective at the “reasonable assurance” level.

 

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

On June 10, 2004, MetLife filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, naming the Company as a defendant. The complaint alleged that the Company was liable for unlawful detainer of premises leased from the plaintiff. The plaintiff thereafter filed a First Amended Complaint alleging that the Company no longer held possession of the premises but was in breach of the lease. In February 2005, MetLife and the Company reached agreement and executed documents regarding a settlement of the pending lawsuit under which the Company will pay MetLife an aggregate of $1.9 million in consideration for termination of the lease, dismissal of the lawsuit and in full settlement of approximately $3.1 million of past and future lease obligations. The first of three installment payments was made in February 2005, the second was made in May 2005 and the third is due in September 2005.

 

On July 28, 2005, representatives of the Company received copies of four complaints relating to purported class action lawsuits, each filed by an alleged holder of shares of our common stock and each filed in California Superior Court for the county of San Mateo. These complaints are captioned Gary Goberville, et al., vs. Pehong Chen, et al., Civ 448490, Cookie Schwartz, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448516, Leon Kotovich, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448518 and Anthony Noblett, et al., vs. BroadVision, Inc., et al, Civ 448519. Each claim names the Company’s directors and

 

37



 

BroadVision, Inc. as defendants, and each alleges that the director defendants violated their fiduciary duties to stockholders by, among other things, failing to maximize the Company’s value and ignoring, or failing to adequately protect against, certain purported conflicts of interest. Each complaint seeks, among other things, injunctive relief and damages in an unspecified amount. The Company anticipates that similar actions may be filed in the future against some or all of the same defendants.

 

The Company is subject to various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the Company has adequate defenses for each of the claims and actions, and believes that their ultimate disposition is not expected to have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Although management currently believes that the outcome of other outstanding legal proceedings, claims and litigation involving us will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition, litigation is inherently uncertain, and there can be no assurance that existing or future litigation will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

CERTIFICATION

 

I, Pehong Chen, Chief Executive Officer of BroadVision, Inc., certify that:

2.                                       Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;
