MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

     Statements in the following section contain forward-looking information about our anticipated future operating expenses, our expectations for our international operations, our future capital needs and about the assumptions and projections underlying our in-process research and development expense. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Therefore, our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, the following:

          The timing of execution of large contracts;
 
          The loss of any key customer;
 
          Variations in the amount of recurring revenues;
 
          The deferral, reduction or cancellation of customer orders or purchases;
 
          The timing of our new product announcements and introductions and those of our competitors;
 
          Delays in the release of final commercial versions of our products;
 
          Changes in the mix of our distribution channels;
 
          The amount and timing of our costs and operating expenses;
 
          Our ability to fulfill our obligations under percentage-of-completion contracts;
 
          Our success in completing pilot installations within contracted fee budgets;
 
          Changes in our product offerings;
 
          Competitive conditions in the industries we serve;
 
          Economic conditions in our targeted markets;
 
          Domestic and international economic conditions;
 
          Changes in prevailing technologies;
 
          Expenses and charges related to our acquisition of other businesses; and
 
          Our ability under generally accepted accounting principles to recognize revenues in the quarter in which we expect to recognize those revenues.

You should carefully consider these risks. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements for any reason.

OVERVIEW

     In November 1999, our former subsidiary Retek, Inc. (“Retek”) completed the initial public offering of approximately 6.3 million shares of its common stock. Prior to the offering, we transferred to Retek all of the shares of our wholly owned subsidiary, Retek Information Systems, Inc. On August 7, 2000, HNC’s board of directors declared a dividend of all of the shares of Retek common stock held by HNC, or approximately 40.0 million shares, to complete the spin-off of our Retek subsidiary. We received a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service that HNC’s dividend of its shares of Retek common stock would be tax-free to HNC and our stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This dividend was paid on September 29, 2000 to all HNC stockholders of record as of September 15, 2000 using a distribution ratio of approximately 1.243 shares of Retek common stock for

F-1

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

each share of HNC common stock held. Cash was paid in lieu of fractional shares. The shares of Retek common stock that were distributed by HNC in the Retek spin-off constituted all the Retek shares owned by HNC and represented approximately 83.9% of Retek’s outstanding shares as of the September 29, 2000 distribution date. As a result of our distribution of our Retek common shares, Retek is no longer affiliated with HNC. In this section, we refer to HNC Software, Inc., excluding Retek, as “Core HNC.”

     Excluding Retek, our primary business segments during 2000 were HNC Financial Solutions (“FS”), HNC Insurance Solutions (“IS”) and HNC Telecommunications Solutions (“TS”). Each of our segments sells products incorporating our Intelligent Response, Decision Management, Risk Analytics and Opportunity Analytics software solutions.

     Financial Solutions. FS provides a suite of products that addresses the customer-lifecycle management needs of banks and other financial institutions. FS provides transaction-based, real-time fraud detection, authorization and action decisions for applications such as credit card charge authorization and the loan approval decision process.

     Insurance Solutions. IS develops software solutions for the insurance industry that are designed to add value to its customers’ businesses through cost reduction and improved management of risks. Customers in this segment include insurance carriers, third-party administrators, managed care organizations, preferred provider organizations, insurance industry trade groups, brokers, and other service organizations. Our current product offerings are targeted to the workers’ compensation and automobile segments of the property and casualty insurance market, as well as the group health segment of the insurance market.

     Telecommunications Solutions. TS provides solutions designed to help telecommunications carriers acquire more customers, enhance relationships with existing customers and retain customers for longer periods. Our current products include solutions to reduce fraud losses and determine customer profitability.

     Our revenues and operating results have varied significantly in the past and in some quarters we have experienced net losses. We expect fluctuations in our operating results to continue for the foreseeable future. As a result, we believe that investors should not rely on period-to-period comparisons of our financial results as an indication of our future performance. Further, we derive a substantial portion of our revenues from our CompAdvisor and Falcon products. Our CompAdvisor and Falcon products in the aggregate accounted for 40.3% of our total revenues in 2000. CompAdvisor accounted for 23.5% of total revenues in 2000 and Falcon accounted for 16.8% of total revenues in 2000. We expect these products will continue to account for a substantial portion of our total revenues for the foreseeable future. Our revenue will decline if the market does not continue to accept these products.

     Because our expense levels are based in part on our expectations regarding future revenues and in the short term are fixed to a large extent, we may be unable to adjust our spending in time to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. We may not be able to maintain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. In addition, in the past we have acquired several companies and may continue to do so in the future. During 2000, we completed the spin-off of our former Retek subsidiary. Such transactions typically affect the comparability of our historical financial results. Acquisitions also typically generate significant continuing charges that decrease our net income, often for many fiscal periods. It is possible that in some future quarter our operating results will be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. In that event, the price of our common stock would likely be harmed.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues

     Our revenues are comprised of license and maintenance revenues and services and other revenues. Total revenues for 2000 increased by $38.0 million, or 17.5%, over 1999. Total revenues for 1999 increased by $38.3

million, or 21.4%, over 1998. Our revenues during 2000, 1999 and 1998 are summarized as follows, and include Retek’s revenues through the September 29, 2000 spin-off date:

     License and Maintenance Revenues. We recognize license and maintenance revenues in several different ways, depending on the terms on which the software and maintenance are provided. Revenue from perpetual and short-term periodic licenses of our software is generally recognized upon delivery. Transactional-based fees under software license arrangements are recognized as revenue based on system usage or when fees based on system usage exceed monthly minimum license fees. Software maintenance fees are recognized as revenue ratably over the maintenance periods. Transactional-based fees under network service or internal hosted software arrangements are recognized as revenue based on system usage or when fees based on system usage exceed monthly minimum license fees. Amounts received under contracts in advance of delivery or performance are recorded as deferred revenue and are generally recognized within one year from receipt.

     The following table presents our license and maintenance revenues by segment for 2000, 1999 and 1998:

                             
        Year Ended December 31,

     License and maintenance revenues in 2000 increased by $10.1 million, or 6.5%, compared with 1999. This increase consisted of a $20.9 million, or 19.0% increase within Core HNC, offset by a $10.7 million, or 23.4% decline at Retek. The increase at Core HNC was primarily attributable to a $13.7 million, or 26.1% increase at our FS segment and a $9.7 million, or 192.0% increase at our combined TS and other segments, offset by a $2.6 million, or 5.0% decline at our IS segment. The increase at our FS segment was attributable primarily to increases in sales of our Falcon and ProfitMax products, along with increased revenues resulting from acquisitions. The increase at our combined TS and other segments is attributable primarily to growth in the TS license and maintenance business through acquisitions, resulting in increased revenues derived primarily through the sale of our 4SCORE and RoamEX products. The decrease at our IS segment resulted primarily from the sale of fewer risk analytic product perpetual licenses as compared to 1999.

     License and maintenance revenues in 1999 increased by $16.7 million, or 12.0%, compared to 1998. This increase consisted of a $15.1 million, or 15.9% increase within Core HNC and a $1.6 million, or 3.6% increase at Retek. The increase at Core HNC was attributable primarily to a $4.3 million, or 9.0% increase at our FS segment and a $8.7 million, or 19.8% increase at our IS segment and a $2.1 million, or 69.4% increase at our combined TS and other segments. The increase at our FS segment was attributable primarily to increases in sales of our Falcon

F-3

and ProfitMax products as a result of an increase in the customer base. The increase at our IS segment was primarily the result of increased license and maintenance revenues associated with our CompAdvisor product, resulting from an increase in the customer base coupled with growth from existing customers, and an increase in the number of MIRA licenses sold. The increase at our combined TS and other segments is attributable primarily to growth in the TS license and maintenance business through increased sales of our ATACS product line, which we acquired in June 1998.

     Services and Other Revenues. Services and other revenues are comprised of installation and implementation revenues, remote hosted service operation revenues and revenues which are derived from consulting contracts, new product development contracts with commercial customers and, to a lesser extent, research and development contracts with the United States Government. Revenue from software installation and implementation and from contract services is generally recognized as the services are performed using the percentage of completion method based on costs incurred to date compared to total estimated costs at completion. Amounts received under contracts in advance of performance are recorded as deferred revenue and are generally recognized within one year from receipt. Contract losses are recorded as a charge to operations in the period any losses are first identified. Installation or setup fees associated with network service and internally hosted software agreements are recognized ratably over the longer of the customer contract period or estimated life of the customer relationship. Remote hosted service fees derived from the review and repricing of customers’ medical bills are recognized as revenue when the processing services are performed.

     The following table presents our services and other revenues by segment for 2000, 1999 and 1998:

                             
        Year Ended December 31,
       
        2000   1999   1998

  $ 88,821     $ 60,941     $ 39,314  
 
   
     
     
 

     Services and other revenues in 2000 increased $27.9 million, or 45.7%, compared to 1999. This increase consisted of a $26.5 million, or 70.2% increase at Core HNC and a $1.4 million, or 6.4% increase at Retek. The increase at Core HNC was attributable primarily to a $8.4 million, or 39.8% increase at our FS segment and a $17.2 million, or 119.7% increase at our IS segment. The increase at our FS segment was attributable primarily to an increase in Capstone implementation revenues, along with increased revenues resulting from acquisitions. The increase at our IS segment was attributable primarily to overall growth in our hosted services customer base, including the commencement of full-scale hosted service operations for a primary customer.

     Services and other revenues in 1999 increased $21.6 million, or 55.0%, compared to 1998. This increase consisted of a $10.7 million, or 39.6% increase at Core HNC and a $10.9 million, or 88.9% increase at Retek. The increase at Core HNC was primarily driven by a $6.1 million, or 40.1% increase at our FS segment and a $6.0 million, or 71.6% increase at our IS segment. The increase at our FS segment was principally the result of an increase in Capstone product implementations and, to a lesser extent, installations of Falcon products. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in installations related to our ProfitMax suite of products as a result of the completion of a large project during 1999. The increase at our IS segment was attributable to a combination of increased installation, consulting and remote hosted service bureau revenues relating to our CompAdvisor product, resulting from the aggregate growth of our customer base within this segment, including the addition of two sizable customers, offset by the loss of a significant service bureau customer as a result of industry consolidation.

     Revenues From Non-U.S. Regions. International operations and export sales represented 19.3%, 23.2% and 23.1% of our total revenues in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. During 2000, 1999 and 1998, approximately

F-4

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Continued)

4.8%, 5.2% and 6.8% of our sales were denominated in currencies other than our functional currency, which is the U.S. dollar. These foreign currencies are primarily those of Western Europe and Canada. During 2000, approximately 33.4% of our international sales were derived from Retek. In 1999 and 1998, the majority of our international sales were derived from Retek. We believe that international sales represent a significant opportunity for revenue growth and anticipate that our international sales may increase as a percentage of our total revenue in the future. However, there can be no assurance that our efforts to develop products, databases, and models for targeted international markets or in developing additional international sales and support channels will be successful.

Cost of Revenues

     License and Maintenance Cost of Revenues. License and maintenance cost of revenues primarily represents our expenses for personnel engaged in customer support, travel to customer sites and documentation materials. Our license and maintenance cost of revenues was $60.5 million in 2000, $41.6 million in 1999 and $33.5 million in 1998. The following table summarizes our license and maintenance cost of revenues in both absolute dollars and as a percentage of license and maintenance revenues by operating segment:

     Our license and maintenance cost of revenues percentage in 2000 increased by 9.8% compared to 1999. Of this increase, 4.6% was attributable to increases within our combined Core HNC and Retek operating segments and 5.2% of this increase was attributable to our recognition in 2000 of increased stock-based compensation charges and non-recurring expenditures relating to our Retek spin-off. For a further discussion regarding stock-based compensation charges and expenditures relating to our Retek spin-off, refer to the sections entitled “Stock-Based Compensation Expense” and “Expenses Related to Spin-Off of Retek” appearing later in this Report.

     In 2000, the 4.6% license and maintenance cost of revenues percentage increase within our operating segments was attributable to a 3.7% decline at Core HNC, offset by a 28.9% increase at Retek. The decrease in Core HNC’s license and maintenance cost of revenues percentage was attributable to a 4.1% decrease at our FS segment and a 1.5% decrease at our combined TS and other segments, offset by a 2.4% increase at our IS segment. The cost of revenues percentage decline at our FS segment was attributable primarily to our recognition of one-time, non-recurring license fees related to Falcon product sales, which have minimal associated costs, as well as increased revenues associated with e-commerce products having lower associated costs. The cost of revenues percentage decline within our combined TS and other segments was attributable primarily to the increase of TS product sales during 2000, primarily resulting from growth in the TS license and maintenance business through acquisitions, with a lower percentage cost increase. The cost of revenues percentage increase at our IS segment was attributable primarily to the sale of fewer perpetual licenses, which have minimal associated costs, related to risk analytic products in 2000 versus 1999.

     Our license and maintenance cost of revenues percentage in 1999 increased by 2.6% compared to 1998. This increase was attributable primarily to a 1.4% increase at Core HNC and a 3.1% increase at Retek. Core HNC’s license and maintenance cost of revenues percentage increase was attributable primarily to a 2.0% increase at our IS segment, while the cost of revenues percentage at our FS segment and our combined TS and other segments

remained relatively flat year over year. The increase at our IS segment was attributable primarily to increased costs related to Preferred Provider Organization bill repricing expenses, including network access fees, as a result of increasingly competitive market conditions.

     Services and Other Cost of Revenues. Services and other cost of revenues consist of personnel and other expenses associated with providing installation and implementation services and performing development, consulting, and research development contracts, and the costs associated with hosted service operations. Our services and other cost of revenues was $72.9 million in 2000, $41.3 million in 1999 and $28.7 million in 1998. The following table summarizes our services and other cost of revenues in both absolute dollars and as a percentage of services and other revenues by operating segment:

     Our services and other cost of revenues percentage in 2000 increased by 14.4% compared to 1999. Of this increase, 4.7% was attributable to increases within our combined Core HNC and Retek operating segments and 9.7% of this increase was attributable to our recognition in 2000 of increased stock-based compensation charges and non-recurring expenditures relating to our Retek spin-off. For a further discussion regarding stock-based compensation charges and expenditures relating to our Retek spin-off, refer to the sections entitled “Stock-Based Compensation Expense” and “Expenses Related to Spin-Off of Retek” appearing later in this Report.

     In 2000, the 4.7% services and other cost of revenues percentage increase within our operating segments was attributable to a 4.8% increase at Core HNC and a 6.7% increase at Retek. The increase within Core HNC was primarily attributable to a 10.9% increase at our FS segment and a 1.3% increase at our IS segment. The cost of revenues percentage increase at our FS segment was attributable primarily to the increased use of third party consultants, who have a higher average cost than internal resources, in connection with Capstone product implementations during the year. The cost of revenues percentage increase at our IS segment was attributable primarily to increased costs associated with contract development work performed during the year, offset by improved cost efficiencies associated with the growth in our hosted service customer base.

     Our services and other cost of revenues percentage in 1999 decreased by 5.2% compared to 1998. This decrease was comprised primarily of a 6.4% decline at Core HNC and a 5.7% decline at Retek. The decrease within HNC was primarily attributable to a 3.0% decrease at our FS segment and an 11.3% decrease at our IS Segment. The cost of revenues percentage decrease at our FS segment was attributable primarily to an increase in the number of Capstone and Falcon product implementations, which had lower associated costs than other services. The cost of revenues percentage decrease at our IS segment was attributable primarily to the result of improved cost efficiencies associated with the growth in our hosted service customer base.

Research and Development Expense

     Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses, subcontracted development services, depreciation for development equipment and supplies. Research and development expense totaled $75.5 million in 2000, $50.2 million in 1999 and $32.7 million in 1998.

     Research and development expense in 2000 increased by $25.3 million, or 50.5%, compared to 1999. Of this increase, $16.5 million, or 32.9%, was attributable to increased expenditures within our combined Core HNC and Retek operating segments, and $8.8 million, or 17.6%, was attributable to our recognition in 2000 of increased stock-based compensation charges as well as non-recurring expenditures relating to our Retek spin-off. Research and development expenses in 1999 increased by $17.5 million, or 53.6%, compared to 1998. Of this increase, $16.4 million, or 50.2%, was attributable to increased expenditures within our combined Core HNC and Retek operating segments and $1.1 million, or 3.4%, was attributable to the recording of stock-based compensation charges in 1999. For a further discussion regarding stock-based compensation charges and expenditures relating to our Retek spin-off, which we do not allocate to our operating segments, refer to the sections entitled “Stock-Based Compensation Expense” and “Expenses Related to Spin-Off of Retek” appearing later in this Report.

     Within our operating segments, the 2000 increase consisted of a $12.9 million, or 48.8% increase within Core HNC and an increase of $3.6 million, or 15.9% related to Retek. The 2000 increase at Core HNC is attributable to a $9.6 million increase at our FS segment, a $2.4 million increase at our combined TS and other segments and a $0.9 million increase at our IS segment. The 1999 increase consisted of a $6.6 million, or 33.3% increase at Core HNC and a $9.8 million, or 76.2% increase related to Retek. The 1999 increase at Core HNC is attributable primarily to a $5.8 million increase at our FS segment and a $0.6 million increase at our IS segment. The absolute dollar increases at Core HNC in 2000 and 1999 were attributable primarily to increases in staffing and related costs to support new product development activities.

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed,” requires capitalization of software development costs from the time technological feasibility is established until the product is available for general release to customers. Based on our product development process, technological feasibility is not established until completion of a working model. Costs we incur between completion of the working model and the point at which a product is ready for general release have been insignificant. As a result, no significant software development costs were capitalized through December 31, 2000. We anticipate that research and development expenses will increase in dollar amount and could increase as a percentage of total revenues for the foreseeable future.

Sales and Marketing Expense

     Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits, commissions, travel, entertainment and promotional expenses. Sales and marketing expenses totaled $89.9 million in 2000, $46.3 million in 1999 and $34.5 million in 1998.

     Sales and marketing expense in 2000 increased by $43.6 million, or 94.4%, compared to 1999. Of this increase, $20.5 million, or 44.5%, was attributable to increased expenditures within our combined Core HNC and Retek operating segments, and $23.1 million, or 49.9%, was attributable to our recognition in 2000 of increased stock-based compensation charges as well as non-recurring expenditures relating to our Retek spin-off. Sales and marketing expenses in 1999 increased by $11.8 million, or 34.0%, compared to 1998. Of this increase, $11.3 million, or 32.7%, was attributable to increased expenditures within our combined Core HNC and Retek operating segments and $0.4 million, or 1.3%, was attributable to the recording of stock-based compensation charges in 1999.

off, which we do not allocate to our operating segments, refer to the sections entitled “Stock-Based Compensation Expense” and “Expenses Related to Spin-Off of Retek” appearing later in this Report.

     Within our operating segments, the 2000 increase consisted of a $12.0 million, or 45.8% increase at Core HNC and a $8.6 million, or 43.9% increase related to Retek. The 2000 increase at Core HNC is attributable to a $6.9 million increase at our FS segment, a $3.3 million increase at our IS segment and a $1.8 million increase at our combined TS and other segments. Sales and marketing expenses in 1999 increased by $11.3 million, or 32.7%, compared to 1998. The 1999 increase consisted of a 5.7 million, or 27.7% increase at Core HNC and a $5.6 million, or 40.1% increase related to Retek. The 1999 increase at Core HNC is attributable to a $2.5 million increase at our FS segment, a $2.6 million increase at our combined TS and other segments, and a $0.5 million increase at our IS segment. The absolute dollar increases at Core HNC in 2000 and 1999 were attributable primarily to increases in staffing related to the expansion of our direct sales and marketing staff, including that resulting from acquisitions. Also contributing to the increases were additional expenses for trade shows, advertising, corporate marketing programs and other expenses to support recently acquired businesses.

     We expect sales and marketing expenses to continue to increase in absolute dollars for the foreseeable future. These expenses could also increase as a percentage of total revenues as we continue to develop a direct sales force in the EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa), the Asian-Pacific and Latin American regions, as well as other international markets, expand our domestic sales and marketing organization and increase the breadth of our product lines.

General and Administrative Expense

     General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs for finance, contract administration, human resources and general management, as well as insurance and professional services expenses. General and administrative expenses totaled $53.3 million in 2000, 33.8 million in 1999 and $19.0 million in 1998.

     General and administrative expense in 2000 increased by $19.5 million, or 57.9%, compared to 1999. Of this increase, $10.8 million, or 32.0%, was attributable to increased expenditures within our combined Core HNC and Retek operating segments, and $8.7 million, or 25.9%, was attributable to the net effect of our recognition of non-recurring expenditures relating to our Retek spin-off, offset by a decline in stock-based compensation charges in 2000 as compared to 1999. General and administrative expenses in 1999 increased by $14.8 million, or 78.0%, compared to 1998. Of this increase, $5.0 million, or 26.4%, was attributable to increased expenditures within our combined Core HNC and Retek operating segments and $9.8 million, or 51.6%, was attributable to the recording of stock-based compensation charges in 1999. For a further discussion regarding stock-based compensation charges and expenditures relating to our Retek spin-off, which we do not allocate to our operating segments, refer to the sections entitled “Stock-Based Compensation Expense” and “Expenses Related to Spin-Off of Retek” appearing later in this Report.

     Within our operating segments, the 2000 increase consisted of a $9.1 million, or 51.6% increase at Core HNC and a $1.7 million, or 26.6% increase related to Retek. The 2000 increase at Core HNC is attributable to a $5.6 million increase at our FS segment, a $2.4 million increase at our IS segment and a $1.1 million increase at our combined TS and other segments. General and administrative expenses in 1999 increased by $5.0 million, or 26.4%, compared to 1998. The 1999 increase consisted of a $3.3 million, or 23.1% increase at Core HNC and a $1.7 million, or 36.8% increase related to Retek. The 1999 increase at Core HNC is attributable primarily to a $2.1 million increase at our FS segment and a $1.0 million increase at our combined TS and other segments. The absolute dollar increases at Core HNC in 2000 and 1999 are attributable primarily to additional staffing and related expenses to support a higher volume of business, resulting in part from our acquisitions. Contributing also to the 1999 increase within our FS segment were additional legal costs incurred in our defense related to the Nestor litigation.

Transaction-related Amortization and Costs

     Transaction-related amortization and costs primarily include acquisition-related amortization during 2000, 1999 and 1998. Additional costs include $0.8 million related to the write-off of deferred offering costs during 2000 and $0.6 million related to the write-off of deferred merger costs during 1999. Transaction•related amortization and costs increased from $3.2 million in 1998 to 9.2 million in 1999 and to $43.7 million in 2000. These year-over-year increases are primarily attributable to incremental intangible asset amortization charges as a result of our business acquisitions during 1998, 1999 and 2000. The average amortization period and useful life for these intangible assets is approximately 3.5 years. For further information regarding our acquisitions, refer to Note 3 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In-process Research and Development Expense

2000 Acquisitions

     In-process research and development expense was $7.6 million in 2000, related to one-time write-offs in connection with the acquisitions of CASA ($1.4 million), Celerity ($1.1 million), HighTouch ($4.0 million), Systems/Link ($0.7 million) and CardAlert ($0.4 million). The classification of the technology as complete or under development was made in accordance with the guidelines of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 2 and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 4.

     CASA, acquired in the first quarter of 2000, is an advanced analytic solutions company that provides account optimization and precision marketing solutions. Prior to 2000, CASA primarily sold its Adaptive Dynamic Marketing solutions to businesses to improve revenue and customer retention. At the time of acquisition, CASA had a number of new technologies under development related to account management algorithms and pricing algorithms, which in-process research and development projects were estimated at the time of acquisition to achieve technological feasibility in 2000.

     Celerity Technologies, acquired in the second quarter of 2000, is involved in developing and marketing electronic data interchange (“EDI”) solutions for the workers’ compensation industry. The company is a developer and provider of translation software, desktop software, and value-added network services in support of the claims handling process. Prior to our acquisition, Celerity Technologies primarily sold its software and network services to insurance carriers, third party administrators, managed care organizations, employers, and medical providers to facilitate the workers compensation claims handling process. At the time of acquisition, Celerity Technologies had a number of new technologies under development related to Web-enabling and EDI network technologies, which in-process research and development projects were estimated at the time of acquisition to achieve technological feasibility in 2000.

     HighTouch, acquired in the second quarter of 2000 by Retek, is a provider of customized software and services relating to customer relationship management (“CRM”). Prior to our acquisition, HighTouch primarily sold customized software and services to a variety of customers in the retail industry. At the time of acquisition, HighTouch had technology under development relating to the creation of a fully integrated standardized off-the-shelf CRM product, which in-process research and development project was estimated at the time of acquisition to achieve technological feasibility in 2000.

     Systems/Link, acquired in the third quarter of 2000, is a software developer that creates data management solutions for large telecommunications companies. The company provides applications for real-time data collection, call detail record exchange, fraud control and prepaid services for carriers. At the time of acquisition, Systems/Link had a new technology under development related to a real-time roamer record exchange system for enhanced fraud control capabilities, which in-process research and development project was estimated at the time of acquisition to achieve technological feasibility in 2001.

     CardAlert, acquired in the third quarter of 2000, provides ATM and debit card risk management services to domestic financial institutions and debit card networks. The company’s Accelerated Detection technology analyzes daily ATM transactions for fraudulent activity. Prior to its acquisition, CardAlert primarily provided fraud detection services to large domestic debit card networks. At the time of acquisition, CardAlert had a new technology under development related to fraud detection for signature-based credit card activity, which in-process research and development project was estimated at the time of acquisition to achieve technological feasibility in the third quarter of 2001.

     We used an independent appraisal firm to assist us with our valuations of the fair market values of the purchased assets in connection with these acquisitions. Fair market value is defined as the estimated amount at which an asset might be expected to be exchanged between a willing buyer and willing seller assuming the buyer continues to use the assets in its current operations. The in-process research and development projects were valued through the use of a discounted cash flow analysis, taking into account projected future cash flows associated with these projects once they achieve technological feasibility, their stage of completion as of the acquisition date, and the expected return requirements (i.e. discount rates) for determining present values of the projected cash flows. Stages of completion were estimated by considering time, cost, and complexity of tasks completed prior to the acquisition as a percentage of total time, cost and effort required for the total project up to achieving technological feasibility.

     With respect to the projected financial information provided to our appraiser pertaining to these acquisitions: CASA prepared a detailed set of projections forecasting revenue from the new algorithms as well as gross profit and operating profit margins; Celerity and HNC prepared a detailed set of projections forecasting revenue from the Web-enabling and EDI technology as well as gross profit and operating profit margins; Retek prepared a detailed set of projections forecasting revenue from the HighTouch CRM technology as well as gross profit and operating profit margins; Systems/Link and HNC prepared a detailed set of projections forecasting revenue from the real-time roamer record exchange technology as well as gross profit and operating profit margins; and CardAlert and HNC prepared a detailed set of projections forecasting revenue from the credit card fraud detection technology as well as gross profit and operating profit margins. These projections were made based on an assessment of customer needs and the expected pricing and cost structure.

     With respect to the discount rates used in the valuation approach, incomplete technology represents a mix of near and mid-term prospects for the acquired businesses and imparts a level of uncertainty as to their prospects. A reasonable expectation of return on the incomplete technology would be higher than that of completed technology due to these inherent risks. As a result, the earnings associated with incomplete technology were discounted based upon the following methodologies: The Capital Asset Pricing Model was used to determine the cost of equity. It combines a risk free rate of return with an equity risk premium multiplied by a factor, referred to as Beta, which is based on the performance of common stock prices of similar publicly traded companies. Employing these data for CASA, Celerity, HighTouch, Systems/Link and CardAlert, the discount rates attributable to the businesses were 22.0%, 19.3%, 21.2%, 21.0% and 21.0%, respectively, which were used for valuing completed technology. Since incomplete technology would require a higher return than completed technology, the valuation reports prepared by our appraiser utilized discount rates of 27.0%, 24.3%, 26.2%, 31.0% and 31.0% for CASA, Celerity, HighTouch, Systems/Link and CardAlert, respectively, to present value cash flows (in excess of a return on other assets of the business) attributable to in-process research and development projects.

     The in-process research and development for the CASA, Celerity, HighTouch, Systems/Link and CardAlert projects have reached completion or continue to progress, in all material respects, consistently with our original assumptions that were provided to the independent appraiser and used to value the in-process research and development.

1999 Acquisition

     In-process research and development expenses was $1.5 million in 1999, related to a one-time write-off in connection with Retek’s acquisition of WebTrak in the fourth quarter of 1999. At the time of acquisition, certain WebTrak products were under development. The classification of the technology as complete or under development was made in accordance with the guidelines of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 2 and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 4.

     Retek used an independent appraisal firm to assist in the valuation of the fair market values of the purchased assets of WebTrak. Fair market value is defined as the estimated amount at which an asset might be expected to be exchanged between a willing buyer and willing seller assuming the buyer continues to use the assets in its current operations. Retek provided assumptions by product line of revenue, cost of goods sold and operating expense to the appraiser to assist in the valuation. The in-process research and development projects were valued through the use of a discounted cash flow analysis, taking into account projected future cash flows associated with these projects once they achieve technological feasibility, their stage of completion as of the acquisition date, and the expected return requirements (i.e. discount rates) for determining present values of the projected cash flows. Stages of completion were estimated by considering time, cost, and complexity of tasks completed prior to the acquisition as a percentage of total time, cost and effort required for the total project up to achieving technological feasibility. Earnings associated with WebTrak’s incomplete technology were discounted at a rate of 26.4%

1998 Acquisitions

     In-process research and development expense was $6.1 million in 1998, related to one-time write-offs in connection with the acquisitions of PCS ($1.8 million), FTI ($3.0 million), and the ATACS product line ($1.3 million). The classification of the technology as complete or under development was made in accordance with the guidelines of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 2 and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 4.

     PCS, acquired in the first quarter of 1998, was a supplier of fully integrated distribution center management software products that address the distribution needs of the retail, wholesale and manufacturing industries. At the time of acquisition, PCS had a number of new technologies under development, including primarily two software product versions that were being designed to assist warehouse operations and of which were estimated to achieve technological feasibility in 1999.

     FTI, acquired in the second quarter of 1998, developed and marketed profitability measurement and decision-support software products and related support services to banks and other similar financial institutions. At the time of acquisition, FTI had various new products under development relating to profitability measurement and other decision support systems, that were estimated to achieve technological feasibility at various dates in 1998 and 1999.

     The ATACS product line, acquired in the second quarter of 1998, was a fraud management software solution for the wireline, wireless and Internet telecommunication service provider industries. At the time of acquisition, ATACS Version 4.2, which included new features and interface technologies, was under development and was estimated to reach technological feasibility in the third quarter of 1998. Although Version 4.2 had as its foundation certain technology from completed versions, management believed that Version 4.2 development efforts were of a significance level to be considered new research and development efforts.

     We used an independent appraisal firm to assist us with our valuations of the fair market values of the purchased assets in connection with these acquisitions. Fair market value is defined as the estimated amount at which an asset might be expected to be exchanged between a willing buyer and willing seller assuming the buyer continues to use the assets in its current operations. The in-process research and development projects were valued through the use of a discounted cash flow analysis, taking into account projected future cash flows associated with these projects once

they achieve technological feasibility, their stage of completion as of the acquisition date, and the expected return requirements (i.e. discount rates) for determining present values of the projected cash flows. Stages of completion were estimated by considering time, cost, and complexity of tasks completed prior to the acquisition as a percentage of total time, cost and effort required for the total project up to achieving technological feasibility.

     With respect to the projected financial information provided to our appraiser pertaining to these acquisitions, we prepared detailed sets of projections forecasting revenues from the in-process technologies as well as gross profit and operating profit margins. These projections were made based on an assessment of customer needs and the expected pricing and cost structure.

     With respect to the discount rates used in the valuation approach, incomplete technology represents a mix of near and mid-term prospects for the acquired businesses/product lines and imparts a level of uncertainty as to their prospects. A reasonable expectation of return on the incomplete technology would be higher than that of completed technology due to these inherent risks. As a result, the earnings associated with incomplete technology were discounted based upon the following methodologies: The Capital Asset Pricing Model was used to determine the cost of equity for the PCS and ATACS product line acquisitions. It combines a risk free rate of return with an equity risk premium multiplied by a factor, referred to as Beta, which is based on the performance of common stock prices of similar publicly traded companies. The Weighted Average Cost of Capital was used to determine the discount rate for FTI. Employing these data for PCS, FTI and the ATACS product line, the discount rates attributable to the businesses/product line were 30.0%, 17.0% and 17.5%, respectively, which were used for valuing completed technology. Since incomplete technology would require a higher return than completed technology, the valuation reports prepared by our appraiser utilized rates of 40.0%, 27.0% and 22.5% for PCS, FTI and the ATACS product line, respectively, to present value cash flows (in excess of a return on other assets of the business) attributable to in-process research and development projects.

Other Operating Expenses

     During 2000, we recorded an impairment charge of $1.2 million related to the abandonment of a lease and associated property and equipment. No impairment charges were recorded in 1999 or 1998.

Interest Income

     Interest income totaled $12.9 million in 2000, $6.3 million in 1999 and $6.8 million in 1998. The increase in interest income in 2000 compared to 1999 is attributable primarily to increased interest earned as a result of higher average cash and investment balances during 2000 whereas the decrease in interest income in 1999 from 1998 is attributable primarily to lower average cash and investment balances during 1999 as compared to 1998.

Interest Expense

     Interest expense totaled $4.2 million in 2000, $5.7 million in 1999 and $4.5 million in 1998. The majority of our interest expense during each of these years relates to our Convertible Subordinated Notes (the “Notes”). The decline in interest expense in 2000 compared to 1999 is attributable primarily to the conversion of $83.6 million of the Notes into our common stock during the third quarter of 2000, whereas the outstanding convertible note balance during all of 1999 was $100.0 million. The increase in interest expense in 1999 compared to 1998 is attributable primarily to a full year of interest recorded on the Notes during 1999 and a partial year in 1998, as the Notes were issued in March 1998.

Expense Related to Debt Conversion

     In connection with the conversion of $83.6 million in Notes during 2000, we incurred and paid $12.7 million in conversion premiums to the note holders, which we recorded as a debt conversion expense.

Other Expense, Net

     Other expense, net totaled $3.4 million in 2000, $0.2 million in 1999 and $0.1 million in 1998. The increase in 2000 compared to 1999 and 1998 is attributable primarily to a $2.8 million charge related to the write-down of our investment in Network Commerce in 2000. See Note 5 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Minority Interest in Losses (Income) of Consolidated Subsidiaries

     Minority interest in losses (income) of consolidated subsidiaries totaled $7.6 million in 2000, $0.7 million in 1999 and $(0.1) million in 1998, and represents other stockholders’ share of the losses (income) of our consolidated subsidiaries, including that relating to Retek in 2000 and 1999.

Income Taxes

     The provision (benefit) for income taxes was $(33.1) million in 2000, $0.5 million in 1999 and $12.8 million in 1998. The differences between the provision (benefit) for income taxes recorded and that computed by applying taxes at statutory rates during 2000, 1999 and 1998 are attributable primarily to the effect of non-deductible expenses, offset by the effect of Retek’s loss attributable to minority interest stockholders and the generation of tax credit carryforwards during each of these three years. Significant non-deductible expenses in 2000 include the effect of one-time write-offs of in-process research and development related to acquisitions, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition related amortization, Retek spin-off costs, and debt conversion expense. Significant non-deductible expenses in 1999 include the effect of a one-time write-off of in-process research and development related to an acquisition, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition related amortization and stock redemption charges. Significant non-deductible expenses in 1998 include the effect of one-time write-offs of in-process research and development related to acquisitions, acquisition related amortization and stock redemption charges. See Note 12 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Stock-based Compensation Expense

     Within our statement of operations, stock-based compensation charges have been classified as follows in 2000 and 1999:

    2000   1999

  $ 21,670     $ 11,985  
 
   
     
 

     During 2000, we recorded net stock-based compensation expense totaling $21.7 million, consisting of $13.8 million in stock-based compensation charges attributable to our Retek spin-off, which are discussed separately below, and $7.9 million in additional net compensation expense. This additional net compensation expense relates primarily to the amortization of unearned stock-based compensation of $8.8 million (of which $8.3 million related to Retek) and also includes additional net compensation income of $0.9 million, primarily related to the reversal of compensation expense recorded in 1999 on variable awards, as a result of a decline in the fair values of these awards during 2000.

     During 1999, Retek granted stock options to employees and directors to purchase Retek common stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share when the deemed fair market value of Retek’s common stock was $13.00 per

share. As a result, Retek recorded unearned stock-based compensation totaling $21.9 million representing the aggregate intrinsic value of the options on the date of grant. Additionally, during 2000, Retek recorded additional unearned stock-based compensation totaling $1.8 million related to an employee option grant having an exercise price below the fair value of Retek’s common stock on the date of grant. Amortization of Retek’s unearned stock-based compensation totaled $1.9 million during 1999 and $8.3 million during the period from January 1, 2000 through the Retek spin-off date of September 29, 2000. Retek’s unearned stock-based compensation balance of $13.3 million at September 29, 2000, net of forfeiture reductions, was removed from our consolidated equity accounts in connection with the Retek spin-off.

     During 1999, in addition to Retek’s amortization of unearned stock-based compensation as described above, we recorded stock-based compensation expense totaling $10.1 million. This compensation expense relates primarily to stock awards granted to former employees and non-employee consultants, of which $8.0 million was calculated at intrinsic value while the remainder related to variable awards measured at fair value. The intrinsic value charge consisted primarily of a one-time charge of $6.1 million related to a key employee severance agreement executed in the fourth quarter of 1999.

     The fair values of HNC’s variable awards during 2000 and 1999 were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0.0% for both years; risk-free interest rate of 5.02% and 5.23% in 2000 and 1999, respectively; volatility of 100% for both years; and expected lives from four months to one year according to the vesting date and subsequent exercise period of each option grant, and our stock prices on the various grant dates as well as on December 31, 2000 and 1999.

     In August 2000, we accelerated the vesting of 25 percent of the outstanding stock options that would have been unvested as of the September 15, 2000 record date to afford our option holders the opportunity to participate in receipt of the Retek share dividend. As a result of this award modification, we recorded a non-cash stock-based compensation charge of $6.7 million during the third quarter of 2000 in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44, or FIN 44. Additionally, as a result of the proportionate option repricing in connection with the Retek spin-off, certain options failed to qualify for fixed accounting treatment under FIN 44. As a result, we recorded a one-time charge to operations of $7.1 million related to the modification and cash repurchase of options in connection with the Retek spin-off.

Expenses Related to Spin-off of Retek

     During 2000, we incurred $48.2 million in non-recurring expenses associated with our spin-off of Retek, excluding stock-based compensation charges totaling $13.8 million that are discussed above. Within our statement of operations, these expenses have been classified as follows in 2000:

         
    Year Ended
    December 31, 2000

License and maintenance

    12,880  
General and administrative
    16,846  
 
   
 
 
  $ 48,185  
 
   
 

     These expenses consisted primarily of a $40.4 million charge related to the accrual of cash bonuses payable to employees and directors who held unvested stock options as of the record date for the Retek dividend, along with investment banking, legal, accounting and other non-recurring costs related to the Retek spin-off.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Net cash used in operating activities totaled $66.4 million in 2000, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $4.6 million in 1999. Cash used in operations during 2000 reflects our net loss of $116.4 million, reduced by non-cash aspects of our net loss totaling $50.0 million. Significant non-recurring operational cash outflows during 2000 included $12.7 million in debt conversion expense as well as $40.1 million in cash payments related to bonuses paid and options repurchased in connection with the Retek spinoff.

     Net cash used in investing activities totaled $72.7 million in 2000, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $30.8 million in 1999. Cash used in investing activities during 2000 included $18.3 million in net purchases of marketable securities, $25.4 million expended for the purchase of property and equipment, $22.8 million paid in connection with our business acquisitions, net of cash acquired, and $6.3 million paid out in connection with equity investments and employee loans made.

     Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $74.6 million in 2000, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $108.3 million in 1999. Cash provided by financing activities during 2000 includes $98.5 million in proceeds resulting from stock option exercises and employee stock purchase plan contributions under both HNC and Retek plans, including the repayment of stockholder notes. It also includes $32.6 million in proceeds from the sale of trade receivables, offset by $18.6 million in cash expended to repurchase HNC common stock for treasury and $7.4 million used to repay debt and capital lease obligations, and a $30.5 million reduction of Retek’s cash and cash equivalent balance as of the September 29, 2000 spin-off date.

     As of December 31, 2000, we had $162.8 million in cash, cash equivalents and investment securities. We believe that these balances, including interest to be earned thereon, and borrowings available under our credit facility will be sufficient to fund our working and other capital requirements, including potential investments in other companies and other assets to support the strategic growth of our business, over the next twelve months. In the event additional needs for cash arise, we may raise additional funds from a combination of sources including the potential issuance of debt or equity securities in public markets. Additional financing might not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all, particularly in light of the recent decline in the capital markets. If adequate funds were not available or were not available on acceptable terms, our ability to take advantage of unanticipated opportunities or respond to competitive pressures could be limited.

New Accounting Pronouncements

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 133”). This statement establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging activities. Under FAS 133, all derivatives must be recognized as assets and liabilities and measured at fair value. In July 1999, the FASB issued Statement of Accounting Standards No. 137 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities •Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133” which deferred the adoption requirement until the first quarter of 2001. We adopted this new accounting standard effective January 1, 2001. The adoption of FAS 133 in the first quarter of 2001 is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or disclosures.

     In September 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Accounting Standards No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities” (“FAS 140”), which replaces Statement of Accounting Standards No. 125, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.” FAS 140 revises the standards for accounting and disclosures for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral. The primary provisions of this statement are effective for us in the second quarter of 2001. We have not yet determined the impact, if any, that this statement will have on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

HNC SOFTWARE INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands, except per share amounts)

Note 1 — HNC Software Inc. and our Significant Accounting Policies

HNC Software Inc.

     We develop, market, and support innovative predictive software solutions for leading service industries. These intelligent decision management solutions employ proprietary neural-network predictive decision engines, profiles, traditional statistical modeling, business models, expert rules and/or context vector technology to convert existing data and business experiences into meaningful recommendations and actions. We currently serve the financial services, insurance, telecommunications and e-business markets.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

     Our consolidated financial statements include our assets, liabilities, and results of operations, as well as those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries and Retek Inc. (“Retek”), which was a majority-owned subsidiary prior to its spin-off in September 2000. The ownership of other interest holders in Retek was reflected as minority interest. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

     The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Revenue Recognition

     Software revenue is recognized upon meeting all of the following criteria: execution of a written license agreement, contract or purchase order; delivery of software and/or authorization keys; the license fee is fixed and determinable; and collectibility of the proceeds is assessed as being probable. For multiple-element agreements, total fees are allocated to each element based on vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value or using the residual method when applicable. Allocated fees are recognized separately for each element when it is delivered, providing other criteria referenced above are met. Vendor-specific objective evidence is generally based on the price charged when an element is sold separately, or if not yet sold separately, is established by authorized management. For perpetual license and maintenance arrangements, vendor-specific objective evidence for maintenance services is determined based on contractual renewal rates for those services. For term license and maintenance arrangements, vendor-specific objective evidence for maintenance services is also determined based on contractual renewal rates for those services, and license and maintenance fees are unbundled only if the maintenance term and renewal rates are considered to be substantive.

     Revenue from perpetual and short-term periodic licenses of our software is generally recognized upon delivery. Transactional-based license fees under software license arrangements are recognized as revenue based on system usage or when fees based on system usage exceed monthly minimum license fees.

     Software maintenance fees are recognized as revenue ratably over the maintenance periods.

     Revenue from software installation and implementation and from contract services is generally recognized as the services are performed using the percentage of completion method based on costs incurred to date compared to total estimated costs at completion. Contract losses are recorded as a charge to operations in the period any losses are first identified. Unbilled accounts receivable are stated at estimated realizable value.

F-21


Table of Contents

     Transactional-based fees under network service or internally hosted software arrangements are recognized as revenue based on system usage or when fees based on system usage exceed monthly minimum license fees. Installation or setup fees associated with network service and internally hosted software agreements are recognized ratably over the longer of the customer contract period or estimated life of the customer relationship.

     Amounts received under contracts in advance of performance are recorded as deferred revenue and are generally recognized within one year from receipt.

Statement of Operations Data

     Within our statement of operations, components of operating expenditures in 2000 and 1999 include stock-based compensation expense and non-recurring expenses related to our spin-off of Retek that have been classified as follows:

                   
      Year Ended December 31,

Cash and Cash Equivalents

     Cash and cash equivalents include amounts on deposit with financial institutions and investments in money market accounts and commercial paper purchased with maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value because of the short-term maturities of these financial instruments.

Marketable Securities

     Management determines the appropriate classification of our investments in marketable debt and equity securities at the time of purchase, and re-evaluates this designation at each balance sheet date. We have classified all of our marketable securities as “available for sale” and carry them at fair value with unrealized gains or losses related to these securities included in other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments available for sale are determined using the specific identification method. Losses resulting from other than temporary declines in fair value are charged to operations.

Equity Investments

     Our investments in equity securities of companies over which we do not have significant influence, are accounted for under the cost method. We use the equity method to account for our investments in entities over which we have a voting interest of 20% to 50%, or over which we otherwise have the ability to exercise significant influence. Under the equity method, the investment is originally recorded at cost and adjusted to recognize our share of net earnings or losses of the investee, limited to the extent of our investment in, advances to, and financial guarantees for the investee. At December 31, 2000, all of our equity investments in other entities were accounted for under the cost method.

Sales of Receivables

     From time to time, we enter into agreements to sell an undivided interest in specifically identified trade accounts receivable. We sell these trade accounts receivable to a financial institution for a fee, based principally upon defined short-term market rates. Once sold, these receivables are not included in our trade accounts receivable balance on our consolidated balance sheet. During 2000 and 1999, we sold $32,585 and $23,711 of receivables, respectively. We did not sell any receivables during 1998. Fees that we paid related to receivables sold totaled $430 and $364 during 2000 and 1999, respectively, and are included in interest expense in our consolidated statement of operations.

Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized, while repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation and amortization charges are calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining term of the related lease. Depreciation and amortization expense related to property and equipment totaled $11,753, $8,215, and $6,102 during 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. The cost and accumulated depreciation for property and equipment sold, retired or otherwise disposed of are relieved from the accounts, and resulting gains or losses are recorded in operations.

Intangible Assets

     Intangible assets include goodwill, acquired software development costs, customer base, assembled work force, covenants not to compete, and trademarks. These assets resulted from our acquisitions accounted for under the purchase method of accounting (see Note 3). Amortization expense related to intangible assets totaled $42,372, $8,560, and $3,203 during 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. We amortize these assets using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:

         
    Estimated
    Useful Life
   
Goodwill
  3 to 5 years
Software development costs
  3 to 5 years
Customer base
  3 to 5 years
Assembled work force
  3 to 5 years
Covenants not to compete
  2 to 3 years
Trademarks
         5 years

We continually review the events and circumstances related to the financial performance and economic environment of the Company for factors that would provide evidence of the impairment of enterprise-level goodwill. If such factors exist, suggesting impairment, we use the market value method to determine the extent of the impairment.

Software Development Costs

     Development costs of software to be licensed or sold that are incurred from the time technological feasibility is established until the product is available for general release to customers are capitalized and reported at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Through December 31, 2000, no significant development costs were incurred after technological feasibility was reached.

Internal-Use Software

     Costs incurred to develop internal-use software during the application development stage are also capitalized and reported at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Application development stage costs generally include costs associated with internal-use software configuration, coding, installation and testing. Costs of significant upgrades and enhancements that result in additional functionality are also capitalized whereas costs incurred for maintenance and minor upgrades and enhancements are expensed as incurred.

Long-lived Assets

     We assess potential impairments to our long-lived and intangible assets when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recovered. An impairment loss is recognized when the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset (or group of assets) is less than its carrying amount. Any required impairment loss would be measured as the amount by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, and would be recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset and a charge to operations.

During 2000, we recorded an impairment charge of $1,172 related to the abandonment of a lease and associated property and equipment. The impairment charge consisted of the write-off of the remaining net book value of abandoned property and equipment that was deemed to have insignificant remaining value at the time of disposal, as well as charges associated with future facility lease cash obligations, net of estimated sublease income as determined through consultation with an independent lease broker. Estimated lease brokerage fees were also included in this charge. No impairment charges were recorded in 1999 or 1998.

Income Taxes

     Current income tax expense is the amount of income taxes expected to be payable for the current year, prior to the recognition of benefits from stock option deductions. A deferred income tax asset or liability is computed for the expected future impact of differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities as well as the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount “more likely than not” to be realized in future tax returns. Tax rate changes and tax credit reinstatements are reflected in income during the period the changes are enacted.

Stock-Based Compensation

     We measure compensation expense for our employee stock-based compensation awards using the intrinsic value method, and provide pro forma disclosures of net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share as if a fair value method had been applied. Therefore, compensation cost for employee stock awards is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of our common stock at the grant date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Compensation expense is amortized over the related service periods using the accelerated methodology prescribed by Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 28. Compensation expense for awards that are forfeited is reversed against compensation expense in the period of forfeiture.

     Stock-based awards issued to non-employees are accounted for using a fair value method and are marked to fair value at each period end until the earlier of the date at which a performance commitment has been obtained or the awards are fully vested. Fair value of stock-based awards is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with weighted average assumptions for dividend yield, risk-free interest rate, expected volatility, and contractual life.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

     Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period, using the treasury stock method. The computation for basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is as follows:

     The conversion of our 4.75% Convertible Subordinated Notes (see Note 9) outstanding during 2000, 1999 and 1998, into 3,512, 2,230 and 1,834 common shares, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted net income (loss) per common share, as their effect in such periods would be anti-dilutive.

     For 2000 and 1999, weighted average options to purchase 2,064 and 6,491 shares of common stock, respectively, and Employee Stock Purchase Plan common stock equivalents of 196 and 56 shares of common stock, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share as their effect in these periods would be anti-dilutive.

Foreign Currency Translation

     The financial statements of our international operations have been translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates during the period for revenues and expenses. Cumulative translation gains and losses are excluded from results of operations and recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions (transactions denominated in a currency other than our entity’s local currency) are recorded in operations.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

     Comprehensive income (loss) is the change in our equity (net assets) during each period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes net income (loss), foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, on our investments in marketable securities.

Concentration of Risk

     Our financial instruments that potentially expose us to concentrations of risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and accounts receivable, which are generally not collateralized. Our policy is to place our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities with high credit quality financial institutions, commercial companies and government agencies in order to limit the amount of credit exposure. We enter into software license and installation agreements and commercial development contracts primarily with large customers in the services industries (financial, insurance and telecommunications). We do not require collateral from our customers, but our credit extension and collection policies include analyzing the financial condition of potential customers, establishing credit limits, monitoring payments, and aggressively pursuing delinquent accounts.

Advertising and Promotion Costs

     Advertising and promotion costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and promotion costs totaled $8,006, $3,651 and $1,791 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and are included in sales and marketing expense in our consolidated statement of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Statement of Accounting Standards No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 133”). This statement establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging activities. Under FAS 133, all derivatives must be recognized as assets and liabilities and measured at fair value. In July 1999, the FASB issued Statement of Accounting Standards No. 137 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities•Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133” which deferred the adoption requirement until the first quarter of 2001. We adopted this new accounting standard effective January 1, 2001. The adoption of FAS 133 in the first quarter of 2001 is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or disclosures.

     In September 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Accounting Standards No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities” (“FAS 140”), which replaces Statement of Accounting Standards No. 125, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.” FAS 140 revises the standards for accounting and disclosures for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral. The primary provisions of this statement are effective for us in the second quarter of 2001. We have not yet determined the impact, if any, that this statement will have on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 2 — Initial Public Offering and Spin-Off of Retek Inc.

     On September 10, 1999, Retek filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to an initial public offering of Retek’s common stock. The offering was consummated in November 1999. In the offering, Retek sold 6,325 shares of its common stock. Prior to the offering, we transferred to Retek all of the shares of our wholly owned subsidiary, Retek Information Systems, Inc.

     On August 7, 2000, HNC’s board of directors declared a dividend of all of the shares of Retek common stock held by HNC, or 40,000 shares, to complete the spin-off of our Retek subsidiary. We received a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service that HNC’s dividend of its shares of Retek common stock would be tax-free to HNC and our stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This dividend was paid on September 29, 2000 to all HNC stockholders of record as of September 15, 2000 using a distribution ratio of approximately 1.243 shares of Retek common stock for each share of HNC common stock held. Cash was paid in lieu of fractional shares. The shares of Retek common stock that we distributed in the Retek spin-off constituted all the Retek shares owned by HNC and represented approximately 83.9% of Retek’s outstanding shares as of the September 29, 2000 distribution date. As a result of our distribution of our Retek common shares, Retek is no longer affiliated with HNC. In connection with this spin-off, we eliminated net assets totaling $121,213 from our consolidated balance sheet, including cash and cash equivalents of $30,463. Additionally, we eliminated the minority interest associated with Retek of $14,491 and net equity totaling $106,722.

     In connection with the spin-off of our Retek subsidiary, we accelerated the vesting of 25 percent of the outstanding HNC stock options that would have been unvested as of the September 15, 2000 record date in order to afford our option holders the opportunity to participate in receipt of the dividend. Additionally, we offered option holders the opportunity to exercise a portion of their vested options prior to the record date through the issuance of secured, full recourse promissory notes payable to HNC (the “Stockholder Notes”). The Stockholder Notes bear interest at the rate of 10.0% per annum, and are collateralized by the underlying shares of stock. Loans totaling $11,857 were originally extended to option holders. At December 31, 2000, stockholder notes receivable totaled $9,049, net of repayments, and have been recorded as a reduction to stockholders’ equity. In connection with the Retek dividend, we also adjusted the exercise price of all HNC stock options that were outstanding immediately following payment of the dividend. The adjusted stock option exercise prices were calculated by multiplying the pre-dividend option exercise price by the price of HNC common stock immediately after payment of the dividend,

F-26


Table of Contents

and dividing that product by the price of HNC common stock immediately before payment of the dividend. The vesting acceleration of HNC stock options and the adjustment to HNC stock option exercise prices that were greater than the closing price of HNC common stock on September 29, 2000 resulted in stock-based compensation charges (see Note 13).

     Because the adjustment to the exercise price of HNC options described above was less than the change in value of unvested HNC stock options resulting from the Retek distribution, we paid cash bonuses to employees and directors who held unvested stock options as of the record date, and recorded a related charge to operations in the amount of $40,427. These bonuses were paid out in October 2000 and January 2001.

Note 3 — Acquisitions

     In September 2000, we acquired all of the outstanding stock and other securities of Systems/Link Corporation (“Systems/Link”) in exchange for the issuance of 634 shares of our common stock, including 40 underlying shares associated with stock options we exchanged, and $5,512 in cash. We placed 142 of the shares issued and $1,275 of the cash portion of the purchase price into escrow, to secure indemnification obligations of the former Systems/Link stockholders. Systems/Link is a software developer that creates data management solutions for large telecommunications companies, providing applications for real-time data collection, call detail record exchange, fraud control and prepaid services to carriers.

(“Onyx”) in exchange for the issuance of 382 shares of our common stock, including 30 underlying shares associated with stock options we exchanged, and $1,500 in cash. We placed 105 of the shares issued and $450 of the cash portion of the purchase price into escrow to secure indemnification obligations of the former Onyx shareholders. During September 2000 and March 2001, we released from escrow without claim a total of 70 shares of our common stock and $300 in cash. The remaining 35 shares and $150 in cash are scheduled to be released from escrow in September 2001 and March 2002. Onyx is a provider of online data access and customer acquisition analysis for telecommunications, financial and retail service companies. We applied the purchase method of accounting for the acquisition of Onyx, which resulted in a purchase price of $49,555, of which $3,500 represented our initial 1999 investment in Onyx. The excess of this amount over the net liabilities assumed of $51,163 was allocated to intangible assets, including goodwill.

The excess of this amount over the net liabilities assumed of $1,785 was allocated to intangible assets, including goodwill.

     In October 1999, Retek acquired WebTrak Limited (“WebTrak”) for a cash payment of $5,333 and the issuance of a $2,667 convertible note, which was subsequently converted into shares of Retek common stock. WebTrak is a United Kingdom company that develops, markets and sells business-to-business products that enable users to publish and share a critical path on the Internet, and allow Web-based collaboration to improve the new product design and development process. The application of the purchase method of accounting for the acquisition resulted in an excess of cost over net liabilities assumed of $8,131, of which $6,651 was allocated to intangible assets, including goodwill, and $1,480 was allocated to in-process research and development.

     In March 1998, we acquired Practical Control Systems Technologies, Inc. (“PCS”; renamed Retek Logistics, Inc.) in exchange for 143 shares of our common stock, 14 shares of which were placed into escrow to secure indemnification obligations of the former PCS stockholders, plus the contingent right, subject to the achievement of certain financial objectives during 1998 and 1999, to receive additional shares of our common stock. During 1999, the escrow shares were released without claim.

     During the fourth quarter of 1998, we acquired the outstanding minority shares of Aptex Software Inc. (“Aptex”). Pursuant to the merger and related transactions, we acquired the outstanding stock held by Aptex employees for $5,321 in cash, and exchanged all outstanding Aptex stock options into options to purchase 380 shares of our common stock. As a result of this merger, we incurred a one-time charge to operations of $2,459 and recorded unearned stock-based compensation of $2,508. The application of the purchase method of accounting to this transaction resulted in an excess of cost over net assets acquired, of which $3,788 was allocated to intangible assets, including goodwill.

     In-process research and development recorded in connection with the above-mentioned purchase transactions represents the present value of the estimated after-tax cash flows expected to be generated by purchased technologies which, as of the acquisition dates, had not yet reached technological feasibility. The cash flow projections for revenues were based on estimates of relevant market sizes and growth factors, expected industry trends, the anticipated nature and timing of new product introductions, product sales cycles and the estimated life of each product’s underlying technology. Estimated operating expenses and income taxes were deducted from estimated revenue projections to arrive at estimated after-tax cash flows. Projected operating expenses include costs of revenues, marketing and selling expenses, general and administrative expenses, and research and development, including estimated costs to maintain the products once they have been introduced into the market and are generating revenue. We made our assessment of whether acquired technologies in these acquisitions were complete or under development in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 2, and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 4.

     The following table summarizes in the aggregate, for all purchase acquisitions during 2000, 1999 and 1998, the goodwill and identified intangible assets recorded:

     During the fourth quarter of 2000, we assessed the impairment in value of our $3,000 investment in Network Commerce Inc. (See Note 6) to be other than temporary and, accordingly, we wrote this investment down to $250 as of December 31, 2000, representing the aggregate fair value of our investment in this entity based on the closing market price of this publicly traded security on December 31, 2000. As a result of this write-down, we recorded a loss of $2,750 that is included in other expense, net in our statement of operations. As of December 31, 1999, we had recorded an unrealized gain of $3,810 related to our investment in this entity. No significant gains or losses were realized on our investments during 1999 or 1998.

     At December 31, 2000 and 1999, all foreign corporate debt investments were denominated in U.S. dollars.

Note 6 — Equity Investments

     In July 2000, we became a limited partner in Azure Capital Partners Venture Fund, a venture capital investment management fund, through an initial investment of $2,250. We have committed to invest an additional $2,750 into this fund during 2001. Our commitment to this fund will not exceed 2% of total fund ownership. This investment is being accounted for using the cost method.

     In July 2000, we invested $1,000 to purchase an approximate 4% interest in Burning Glass Technologies, LLC, a privately held developer of statistical and predictive technologies for use in the employment marketplace. This investment is being accounted for using the cost method.

     In March 2000, we invested $1,500 to maintain our approximate 6% ownership interest in Open Solutions Inc. (“OSI”). In April 1999, we had previously invested $6,000 to purchase an approximate 6% interest in OSI. OSI is a developer of client/server core data processing solutions for community banks and credit unions. This investment is being accounted for using the cost method.

     In October 1999, we invested $3,500 to purchase an approximate 13% interest in Onyx Technologies, Inc. (“Onyx”), a provider of online data access and customer acquisition analysis for telecommunications, financial and retail service companies. In March 2000, we acquired Onyx (see Note 3).

     In June 1999, we invested $3,000 to purchase an approximate 1% interest in Network Commerce Inc. (“Network Commerce”; formerly ShopNow.com Inc.), an e-commerce company that helps customers and merchants buy and sell merchandise online. In September 1999, Network Commerce became a public company. As a result, we

F-31

reclassified our investment in Network Commerce in our consolidated balance sheet to a short-term available for sale investment classification (see Note 5).

     In July 1999, we invested $2,000 to purchase an approximate 16% interest in KeyLime Software Inc., a privately held software company specializing in the development of certain data mining technologies. This investment is accounted for using the cost method.

     In March 1999, we invested $2,000 to purchase an approximate 3% interest in Qpass Inc., a Web-wide transaction and customer service network enabling commerce in digital goods and services. This investment is accounted for using the cost method.

     In March 1999, we invested $750 to purchase an approximate 16% interest in AIM Solutions, Inc. (“AIM”), a company that provides marketing process automation, campaign execution software, and client-to-vendor data management to direct marketers of enhancement services. In March 2000, we acquired AIM (see Note 3).

Note 7 — Credit Agreement

     We have a Credit Agreement with a bank that provides for a $15,000 revolving line of credit through July 11, 2001. During 2000 and 1999, we had no amounts outstanding under this revolving line of credit. The agreement contains covenants that restrict our ability to pay cash dividends and make loans, advances or investments without the bank’s consent. As of December 31, 2000, we were in compliance with all covenants under this agreement. Borrowings under this agreement bear interest at LIBOR plus 0.5%, which is payable monthly. The applicable interest rate was 7.06% at December 31, 2000.

Note 8 — Operating Leases

     At December 31, 2000, we are obligated through 2007 under non-cancelable operating leases for our facilities and equipment as follows:

                         
            Net   Future
    Future Minimum   Less Sublease   Minimum Lease
    Lease Payments   Income   Payments

  $ 24,436     $ (283 )   $ 24,153  
 
   
     
     
 

     Our corporate headquarters lease provides for scheduled rent increases and an option to extend the lease for five years with changes to the terms of the lease agreement and a refurbishment allowance. Rent expense under operating leases totaled $9,075, $6,172 and $3,689 during 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively, net of sublease income of $555, $1,286, and $1,029, respectively.

Note 9 — Convertible Subordinated Notes

     In March 1998, we completed an offering of $100,000 of 4.75% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the “Notes”), due on March 1, 2003, which we fully and unconditionally guaranteed. The Notes were originally convertible into our common stock at any time prior to the close of business on the maturity date at a conversion rate of 22.30 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of $44.85 per share). We also had the right to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, on or after March 6, 2001, at redemption prices (plus accrued interest), as follows: a premium of 101.9 after one year, 100.95 after two years, and at par as of the third year. This offering resulted in net proceeds to us of $97,000 after the payment of underwriters’ commissions but before the deduction of offering expenses. Debt issuance costs were recorded at cost and are being amortized using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest-method, over the life of the Notes.

Table of Contents

     During 2000, $83,643 of the Notes were converted into HNC common stock at a conversion rate of 22.30 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of $44.85 per share). In connection with these note conversions, we issued 1,872 shares of our common stock. Additionally, we paid $12,676 million in conversion premiums to the converting note holders, which we recorded as a debt conversion charge. As of December 31, 2000, $16,357 of the Notes remained outstanding. In connection with the spin-off of our Retek subsidiary, the indenture governing the Notes required an adjustment to the conversion price of the remaining outstanding Notes. This conversion price was based upon a formula that calculated an adjusted conversion rate using the relative per common share values of HNC and Retek as of the date of the spin-off. As a result of this adjustment, the remaining Notes became convertible into our common stock at a conversion rate of 100.20 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of $9.98 per share). As discussed in Note 15, the remaining outstanding Notes were converted into our common stock in March 2001.

     The fair value of the Notes at December 31, 2000 was estimated to be $48,657, calculated based upon the fair value of the underlying shares of HNC common stock that the Notes were convertible into as of this date based upon the revised conversion rate.

     Cash amounts paid for interest related to the Notes totaled $4,750, $4,750, and $2,335 during 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.

Note 10 — Treasury, Common and Preferred Stock

     During 2000, we repurchased 250 shares of our outstanding common stock for treasury at a cost of $18,616. During 1999, we repurchased 2,266 shares of our outstanding common stock for treasury at a cost of $50,383.

     During March 1998, we completed a secondary public offering of 2,100 shares of common stock (of which 2,080 shares were sold by selling stockholders and 20 shares were sold by us) at a price to the public of $34.50 per share, which resulted in net proceeds of $655 after the payment of underwriters’ commissions but before the deduction of offering expenses.

     Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 4,000 shares of preferred stock and to determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, of those shares without any further vote or action by the stockholders. The rights of common stockholders will be superceded by the rights of any preferred stock holders, if preferred stock is issued in the future.

     During 2000, 1999 and 1998, we realized certain tax benefits related to stock option transactions in the amounts of $36,392, $16,993 and $7,569, respectively. The tax benefits from these stock option tax deductions were credited directly to paid-in capital.

     Deferred tax assets (liabilities) are summarized as follows:

     No valuation allowance has been recorded against our net deferred tax assets as we believe it to be more likely than not that our tax assets will be realized.

     At December 31, 2000, we had federal and state net operating loss carry-forwards totaling $143,187 and $84,189, respectively. The federal net operating loss carry-forwards include $4,772 that expires in 2011, $24,618 that expires in 2019 and $113,797 that expires in 2020. The state net operating loss carry-forwards expire from 2002 through 2010.

     At December 31, 2000, we also had $2,391 of federal research and development credit carry-forwards that expire from 2001 to 2020, $1,643 of state research and development credit carry-forwards that have no expiration dates, $1,525 of foreign tax credit carry-forwards that expire from 2000 to 2005, and federal and state alternative minimum tax credits of $150 and $4, respectively, that have no expiration dates. These net operating loss and research and development credit carry-forwards are subject to annual limitations and also are limited to utilization solely by the segment that generated them. Should a substantial change in our ownership occur, as defined by the Tax Reform Act of 1986, there will be additional annual limitations on our utilization of net operating loss and research and development credit carry-forwards.

     We paid $484, $6,312 and $1,151 of income taxes during 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Note 12 — Segment Information

     During 2000, 1999 and 1998, our reportable segments were based upon our method of internal reporting to management, who viewed our business for these periods by functional market. During 2000, 1999 and 1998, our operating segments reflected the way management organized and evaluated internal financial information to make operating decisions and assess performance. Excluding Retek, our primary operating segments include HNC Financial Solutions (“HNC FS”), HNC Insurance Solutions (“HNC IS”) and HNC Telecommunications Solutions (“HNC TS”).

     HNC FS provides transaction-based, real-time fraud detection, authorization and action decisions for applications such as credit card charge authorization and the loan approval decision process. Our HNC FS segment also includes the activities associated with our former eHNC division, the activities of which we reintegrated into FS in July 2000. HNC IS provides users with the ability to reduce fraud losses and streamline operations in the containment of the medical costs of workers’ compensation and automobile accident insurance claims, workers’ compensation loss reserving, workers’ compensation fraud, managed care effectiveness and provider effectiveness. HNC TS provides our telecommunications carrier customers with the ability to reduce fraud losses and determine customer profitability. HNC TS is presented below along with activities associated with our Advanced Technology Solutions group, which primarily conducts research and development for the United States government, as well as corporate activity. Retek, which we spun-off to stockholders effective September 29, 2000, is also presented separately below.

     The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1. We evaluate the performance of our segments and allocate resources to them based on operating income. Inter-segment sales are accounted for at fair value as if the sales were to third parties.

     Our operating segments reflect the way our management team organizes and evaluates internal financial information, in order to make operating decisions and assess performance. Each segment represents a strategic business unit that offers unique products and services to their functional markets. The table below presents segment data for certain statement of operations and balance sheet line items as of and for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998.

     Segment revenues are summarized as follows:

     During 2000, 1999 and 1998, one product line in the HNC FS segment accounted for 16.8%, 15.4% and 14.5% of our total revenues, respectively. During those same periods, revenues from one product in the HNC IS segment accounted for 23.5%, 20.9% and 21.5% of our total revenues, respectively. During 1999 and 1998, one product in the Retek segment accounted for 10.1% and 13.2% of our total revenues, respectively.

Note 13 — Stock Compensation Plans

     We apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for our stock-based compensation. Had compensation cost for our stock-based compensation awards been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates of awards, consistent with the method of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123, our net income (loss) and basic and diluted pro forma net income (loss) per common share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

HNC Software Inc. Sponsored Plans

     We administer several employee benefit plans, both active and inactive. Our active plans include our 1995 Equity Incentive Plan, our 1995 Directors Stock Option Plan, our 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, and our 1998 Stock Option Plan. Our inactive plans include our original 1987 Stock Option Plan and various plans that we acquired in conjunction with our acquisitions. Our inactive plans also include the eHNC 1999 Equity Incentive and Executive Equity Incentive Plans. As a result of a short-form merger of eHNC into HNC in July 2000, all outstanding options under eHNC plans were assumed. These assumed plans were amended to convert their respective options into HNC options as of the respective acquisition or merger dates. While subsequent to the assumption of these plans the acquired employees participated in our own stock option plans and are subject to our plans’ terms and conditions, options issued prior to the acquisition or merger dates are subject to their respective plan terms and conditions. Our inactive plans are not discussed herein. For purposes of the discussion regarding our active plans below, “fair market value” means the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq National Market on the grant date.

     Our 1995 Directors Stock Option Plan (“Directors Plan”), as amended, provides for the issuance of up to 600 nonqualified stock options to our outside directors. Under the provisions of the Directors Plan, nonqualified options to purchase 25 shares of our common stock are granted to outside directors upon their respective dates of becoming members of the Board of Directors, and nonqualified options to purchase ten shares of our stock will be granted on each anniversary date. Options under the Directors Plan are to be granted at the fair market value of the stock at the grant date and vest at specific times over a four-year period. As of December 31, 2000, 255 shares remained available for future grant under this plan.

     Our 1995 Equity Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”) as amended, provides for the issuance of up to 9,100 shares of our common stock in the form of nonqualified or incentive stock options, restricted stock or stock bonuses. Nonqualified stock options and restricted stock may be awarded at a price not less than 85% of the fair market value of the stock at the date of the award. Incentive stock options must be awarded at a price not less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock at the date of the award. Options granted under the Incentive Plan may have a term of up to ten years. We have the discretion to provide for restrictions, and the lapse of restrictions, in respect of restricted stock awards. Options typically vest at the rate of 25% of the total grant per year over a four-year period; however, we may, at our discretion, implement a different vesting schedule with respect to any new stock option grant. At December 31, 2000, 1,172 shares remained available for future grant under this plan.

     Our 1998 Stock Option Plan (“1998 Plan”), as amended, provides for the issuance of up to 2,980 shares of our common stock in the form of nonqualified stock options to our employees, officers, consultants and independent advisors. Options granted under the 1998 Plan may have a term of up to ten years and typically vest at the rate of 25% of the total grant per year over a four-year period; however, we may, at our discretion, implement a different vesting schedule with respect to any new stock option grant. At December 31, 2000, 1,148 shares remained available for future grant under this plan.

     Our 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“Stock Purchase Plan”), as amended, provides for the issuance of a maximum of 850 shares of common stock. Each purchase period, eligible employees may designate between 2% and 10% of their cash compensation, up to legally permitted amounts, to be deducted from their compensation for the purchase of common stock under the Stock Purchase Plan. The purchase price of the shares under the Stock Purchase Plan is equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value per share on the first day of the twelve-month offering period or the last day of each six-month purchase period. During 2000, 1999 and 1998, 106, 115 and 68 shares of our common stock were issued under the Stock Purchase Plan at an average price of $29.55, $24.46 and $28.34 per share, respectively. As of December 31, 2000, 416 shares were reserved for future issuance under the Stock Purchase Plan.

(a)   On September 29, 2000, in connection with the spin-off of Retek, we adjusted the exercise price of all outstanding stock options in accordance with the distribution ratio discussed in Note 2. The weighted average exercise price of options outstanding at September 29, 2000 after consummation of the spin-off was $11.21.

     The fair value of each option grant under our HNC plans was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for grants during 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively: dividend yield of 0.0% for all three years; risk-free interest rates of 6.21%, 5.47% and 5.14%; expected volatilities of 100%, 100% and 65%; and expected lives of 4.1, 4.1 and 5.0 years. The weighted average fair value of options granted under HNC plans during 2000, 1999 and 1998 was $37.61, $23.15 and $22.17, respectively. The fair value of the employees’ purchase rights issued pursuant to the Stock Purchase Plan were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions during 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively: dividend yield of 0.0% for all three years; risk-free interest rates of 6.18%, 4.98% and 5.02%; expected volatilities of 100%, 100% and 65%; and an expected life of 6 months for all three years. The weighted average fair value of those purchase rights granted in 2000, 1999 and 1998 was $7.29, $16.66 and $16.25, respectively.

Retek Inc. Sponsored Plans

     During 1999, Retek adopted the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan, the 1999 Director Stock Option Plan and the Employee Stock Option Exchange Program, under which options to purchase common stock in our former subsidiary Retek had been granted. During 1999, Retek also adopted the 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which provides for the issuance of Retek’s common stock to eligible employee participants at a purchase price equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value per share on the first day of the two-year offering period and the date of purchase. As a result of our September 2000 spin-off of Retek, HNC is no longer affiliated with any Retek stock compensation plans.

     During the period from January 1, 2000 through the Retek spin-off date of September 29, 2000, 464 shares of Retek common stock were issued under Retek’s employee stock purchase plan at an average price of $12.75 per share. No shares were issued under this plan during 1999. Option activity under Retek’s option plans during 1999 and during the period from January 1, 2000 through the spin-off date, is summarized as follows:

(a)   As a result of the Retek spin-off, HNC has no further affiliation with Retek’s plans or underlying options, including those outstanding as of the September 29, 2000 spin-off date.

     The fair value of each option granted under Retek’s plans was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following weighted average assumptions used for grants during the period from January 1, 2000 through the September 29, 2000 spin-off date and during 1999, respectively: dividend yield of 0.0% for both years; risk-free interest rates of 5.12% and 5.47%; expected volatility of 130% and 100%; and expected lives of 4.4 and 4.1 years. The weighted average fair value of options granted under Retek plans during the period from January 1, 2000 through September 29, 2000, and during 1999, was $24.49 and $7.62, respectively. The fair value of the employees’ purchase rights issued pursuant to Retek’s stock purchase plan in 2000 were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0.0%; risk-free interest rate of 5.50%; expected volatility of 130%; and an expected life of 6 months. The weighted average fair value of those purchase rights granted was $8.33.

Stock-Based Compensation

     During 2000, we recorded net stock-based compensation expense totaling $21,670, consisting of $13,762 in stock-based compensation charges attributable to our Retek spin-off, which are discussed separately below, and $7,908 in additional net compensation expense. This additional net compensation expense relates primarily to the amortization of unearned stock-based compensation of $8,772 (of which $8,266 related to Retek) and also includes additional net compensation income of $864, primarily related to the reversal of compensation expense recorded in 1999 on variable awards, as a result of a decline in the fair values of these awards during 2000.

     During 1999, Retek granted stock options to employees and directors to purchase Retek common stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share when the deemed fair market value of Retek’s common stock was $13.00 per share. As a result, Retek recorded unearned stock-based compensation totaling $21,886 representing the aggregate intrinsic value of the options on the date of grant. Additionally, during 2000, Retek recorded additional unearned stock-based compensation totaling $1,750 related to an employee option grant having an exercise price below the fair value of Retek’s common stock on the date of grant. Amortization of Retek’s unearned stock-based compensation totaled $1,908 during 1999 and $8,266 during the period from January 1, 2000 through the Retek spin-off date of September 29, 2000. Retek’s unearned stock-based compensation balance of $13,255 at September 29, 2000, net of forfeiture reductions, was removed from our consolidated equity accounts in connection with the Retek spin-off.

     During 1999, in addition to Retek’s amortization of unearned stock-based compensation as described above, we recorded stock-based compensation expense totaling $10,077. This compensation expense relates primarily to stock awards granted to former employees and non-employee consultants, of which $7,972 was calculated at intrinsic value while the remainder related to variable awards measured at fair value. The intrinsic value charge consisted primarily of a one-time charge of $6,064 related to a key employee severance agreement executed in the fourth quarter of 1999.

     The fair values of HNC’s variable awards during 2000 and 1999 were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0.0% for both years; risk-free interest rate of 5.02% and 5.23% in 2000 and 1999, respectively; volatility of 100% for both years; and expected

lives from four months to one year according to the vesting date and subsequent exercise period of each option grant, and our stock prices on the various grant dates as well as on December 31, 2000 and 1999.

     In August 2000, we accelerated the vesting of 25 percent of the outstanding stock options that would have been unvested as of the September 15, 2000 record date to afford our option holders the opportunity to participate in receipt of the Retek share dividend. As a result of this award modification, we recorded a non-cash stock-based compensation charge of $6,688 during the third quarter of 2000 in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44, or FIN 44. Additionally, as a result of the proportionate option repricing in connection with the Retek spin-off, certain options failed to qualify for fixed accounting treatment under FIN 44. As a result, we recorded a one-time charge to operations of $7,074 related to the modification and cash repurchase of options in connection with the Retek spin-off.

Note 14 — Contingencies

     Various claims arising in the course of business, seeking monetary damages and other relief, are pending. We believe that these claims will not result in a material negative impact on our results of operations, liquidity or financial condition. However, the amount of the liability associated with these claims, if any, cannot be determined with certainty.

     We recently settled, without liability, a suit that Nestor Inc. filed against us in November 1998 in the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island. In this suit, Nestor had alleged antitrust violations and unfair competition claims with respect to our marketing of our Falcon credit card fraud detection product. Nestor’s complaint also alleged that we infringed United States patents held by Nestor and sought a declaratory judgment that a United States patent we hold relating to technology used in our Falcon products is invalid and unenforceable. In January 2000 Nestor dropped its claim of patent infringement against us and in January 2001 the case settled and Nestor’s remaining claims for antitrust and unfair competition were dismissed.

Note 15 — Subsequent Event

     In February 2001, we announced the call for redemption of our outstanding Convertible Subordinated Notes on March 6, 2001. In March 2001, all remaining outstanding Notes were converted into 1,639 shares of our common stock at a conversion ratio of 100.2004 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes held.
