WAYSIDE TECHNOLOGY GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2011
1. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete audited financial statements.
The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to product returns, bad debts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, stock-based compensation and costs associated with exit or disposal activities, and contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on its historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. In the opinion of the Companys management, all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for fair presentation, have been included in the accompanying financial statements. The Companys actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The unaudited condensed consolidated statements of earnings for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2010.
2. Assets and liabilities of the Companys foreign subsidiaries have been translated at current exchange rates, and related sales and expenses have been translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the period. The sales from our Canadian operations in the first three months of 2011 were $4.7 million as compared to $3.4 million for the first three months of 2010.
3. Cumulative translation adjustments and unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities have been classified within accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a separate component of stockholders equity in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income.
4. The Company records revenues from sales transactions when title to products sold passes to the customer. Usual sales terms are FOB shipping point, at which time title and risk of loss have passed to the customer and delivery has occurred. Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 985-605 Software Revenue Recognition and ASC Topic 605-10-S99, and ASC Topic 605 -45, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent. The majority of the Companys revenues relates to physical products and is recognized on a gross basis with the selling price to the customer recorded as net sales and the acquisition cost of the product to the Company recorded as cost of sales. At the time of sale, the Company also records an estimate for sales returns based on historical experience. Certain software maintenance products, third party services and extended warranties sold by the Company (for which the Company is not the primary obligor) are recognized on a net basis. Accordingly, such revenues are recognized in net sales either at the time of sale or over the contract period, based on the nature of the contract, at the net amount retained by the Company, with no cost of goods sold.
Accounts receivable long-term result from product sales with extended payment terms that are discounted to their present values at the prevailing market rates. In subsequent periods, the accounts receivable are increased to the amounts due and payable by the customers through the accretion of interest income on the unpaid accounts receivable due in future years. The amounts due under these long-term accounts receivable due within one year are reclassified to the current portion of accounts receivable.
5. Vendor rebates and price protection are recorded when earned as a reduction to cost of sales or merchandise inventory, as applicable. Cooperative reimbursements from vendors, which are earned and available, are recorded in the period in which the related advertising expenditure is incurred. Cooperative reimbursements are recorded as reduction in cost of sales in accordance with ASC
Topic 605-50 Accounting by a Customer (including reseller) for Certain Consideration Received from a Vendor.
6. The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, because of the relative short maturity of these instruments.

7. The Company accounts for the fair value measurement in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820 Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company uses the following methods for determining fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820. For assets and liabilities that are measured using quoted prices in active markets for the identical asset or liability, the total fair value is the published market price per unit multiplied by the number of units held without consideration of transaction costs (Level 1). Assets and liabilities that are measured using significant other observable inputs are valued by reference to similar assets or liabilities, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data (Level 2). For all remaining assets and liabilities for which there are no significant observable inputs, fair value is derived using an assessment of various discount rates, default risk, credit quality and the overall capital market liquidity (Level 3).
The following table summarizes the basis used to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis in the condensed consolidated balance sheets:

10. The Company had no major vendors that accounted for more than 10% of total purchases for the three months ended March 31, 2011 or March 31, 2010. The Company had three major customers that accounted for 14.3%, 10.6% and 10.3%, respectively, of its total net sales during the three months ended March 31, 2011. These same customers accounted for 15.4%, 2.6% and 12.3%, respectively, of total net accounts receivable as of March 31, 2011. The Company had one major customer that accounted for 17.1% of its total net sales during the three months ended March 31, 2010.
11. The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2007. The Companys policy is to recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and penalties as operating expenses. The Company believes that it has appropriate support for the income tax positions it takes and expects to take on its tax returns, and that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years based on an assessment of many factors including past experience and interpretations of tax law applied to the facts of each matter.

12. The 2006 Stock- Based Compensation Plan (the 2006 Plan).

As of March 31, 2011, there is approximately $3.5 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements. The unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 4.1 years.
For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized share-based compensation cost of approximately $289,000 and $301,000, respectively, which is included in the Companys general and administrative expense.
13. ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, requires that public companies report profits and losses and certain other information on their reportable operating segments in their annual and interim financial statements. The internal organization used by the public companys Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to assess performance and allocate resources determines the basis for reportable operating segments. The Companys CODM is the Chief Executive Officer.
The Company is organized into two reportable operating segments the Programmers Paradise segment, which sells technical software, hardware and services directly to end-users (such as individual programmers, corporations, government agencies, and educational institutions) and the Lifeboat segment, which distributes technical software to corporate resellers, value added resellers (VARs), consultants and systems integrators.
As permitted by ASC Topic 280, the Company has utilized the aggregation criteria in combining its operations in Canada with the domestic segments as the Canadian operations provide the same products and services to similar clients and are considered together when the Companys CODM decides how to allocate resources.
Segment income is based on segment revenue less the applicable segments cost of revenues as well as segment direct costs (including such items as payroll costs and payroll related costs, such as profit sharing, incentive awards and insurance) and excluding general and administrative expenses not attributed to an individual segment business unit. The Company only identifies accounts receivable and inventory by segment as shown below as Selected Assets; it does not allocate its other assets, including capital expenditures by segment.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains, in addition to historical information, forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of risk and uncertainties, including those set forth under the heading Certain Factors Affecting Results of Operations and Stock Price and elsewhere in this report and those set forth in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this report and the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Overview
The Company is organized into two reportable operating segments the Programmers Paradise segment, which sells technical software, hardware and services directly to end-users (such as individual programmers, corporations, government agencies, and educational institutions) and the Lifeboat segment, which distributes technical software to end-users through corporate resellers, value added resellers (VARs), consultants and systems integrators.
More generally, the Companys sales, gross profit and results of operations have fluctuated and are expected to continue to fluctuate on a quarterly basis as a result of a number of factors, including but not limited to: the loss of any major vendor; condition of the software industry in general; shifts in demand for software products; our customers ability to meet their payment obligations in a timely manner; industry shipments of new software products or upgrades; the timing of new merchandise and catalog offerings; fluctuations in response rates; fluctuations in postage, paper, shipping and printing costs and in merchandise returns; adverse weather conditions that affect response, distribution or shipping; shifts in the timing of holidays; and changes in the Companys product offerings. The Companys operating expenditures are based on sales forecasts. If revenues do not meet expectations in any given quarter, operating results may be materially adversely affected.
Results of Operations
The following table sets forth for the periods indicated certain financial information derived from the Companys unaudited condensed consolidated statements of earnings expressed as a percentage of net sales. This comparison of financial results is not necessarily indicative of future results:

Net Sales
Net sales for the first quarter of 2011 increased 28% or $11.1 million to $51.5 million compared to $40.4 million for the same period in 2010. Total sales for the first quarter of 2011 for our Lifeboat segment were $39.5 million compared to $29.1 million in the first quarter of 2010, representing an increase of $10.4 million or 36%. Total sales for the first quarter of 2011 for our Programmers Paradise segment were $12.0 million compared to $11.2 million in the first quarter of 2010, representing a 7% increase.
Sales from our Lifeboat segment showed strong growth. The 36% increase in net sales in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 was mainly a result of our continued focus on the expanding virtual infrastructure-centric business, the addition of several key product lines, and the strengthening of our account penetration.
Gross Profit
Gross Profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 was $4.8 million compared to $4.0 million for the first quarter of 2010, a 22% increase. Total gross profit for our Lifeboat segment in the first quarter of 2011 was $3.4 million compared to $2.6 million for the first quarter of 2010, representing a 29% increase. This increase in gross profit for the Lifeboat segment was due to aggressive sales volume growth within our Lifeboat segment. Total gross profit for our Programmers Paradise segment in the first quarter of 2011 was $1.4 million compared to $1.3 million for the first quarter of 2010, representing a 7% increase. This increase for the Programmers Paradise segment was primarily due to the increased sales volume.
Gross profit margin, i.e., gross profit as a percentage of net sales, decreased from 9.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 to 9.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in gross profit dollars and the decrease in gross profit margin were caused primarily by the aggressive sales growth within our Lifeboat segment, driven in part by our having won several large bids based on aggressive pricing, which we plan to continue to do. Gross profit margin for our Lifeboat segment was 8.6% compared to 11.8% for our Programmers Paradise segment in the first quarter of 2011. The decrease in gross margin of our Lifeboat segment to 8.6% in the first quarter of 2011 from 9.1 % in the first quarter of 2010 mainly reflects the competitive nature of our business and a shift in our product mix.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Total selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $3.5 million compared to $3.0 million for the first quarter of 2010, which was mainly the result of an increase in employee and employee related expenses (salaries, commissions, bonus accruals and benefits) of $0.4 million and an increase in sales and marketing expenses of $0.1 million in the first three months of 2011 compared to the first three months of 2010. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were 6.9% compared to 7.5% for the first quarter of 2010, mainly due to sales increasing at a faster pace than SG&A expenses.
The Company expects that its SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, may vary by quarter depending on changes in sales volume, and levels of continuing investments in information technology and marketing. We continue to monitor our SG&A expenses closely.
Direct selling costs (a component of SG&A) for the first quarter of 2011 were $1.8 million compared to $1.5 million for the first quarter of 2010. Total direct selling costs for our Programmers Paradise segment for the first quarter of 2011 were $0.7 million compared to $0.7 million for the same period in 2010. Total direct selling costs for our Lifeboat segment for the first quarter of 2011 were $1.1 million compared to $0.8 million for the first quarter of 2010 mainly due to increased employee related costs to manage and reward our growth in this segment.
Foreign Currency Transactions Gain (Loss)
There was no realized foreign currency exchange gain for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, compared to a foreign currency exchange gain of $1,000 for the same period in 2010. Foreign exchange gains and losses primarily result from our trade activity with our Canadian subsidiary. Although the Company does maintain bank accounts in Canadian currencies to reduce currency exchange fluctuations, the Company is, nevertheless, subject to risks associated with such fluctuations.
Income Taxes
For the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $538,000 which consists of a provision of $356,000 for U.S. federal income taxes as well as a $103,000 provision for state and local taxes and $57,000 for Canadian taxes, and a deferred tax expense of $22,000. For the quarter ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $424,000 which consists of a provision of $215,000 for U.S. federal income taxes as well as a $62,000 provision for state and local taxes and $38,000 for Canadian taxes, and a deferred tax expense of $109,000.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the first three months of 2011 our cash and cash equivalents increased by $2.1 million to $13.1 million at March 31, 2011, from $11.0 million at December 31, 2010. During the first three months of 2011, net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $1.2 million; net cash provided by investing activities amounted to $2.1 million and net cash used in financing activities amounted to $1.3 million.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the first three months of 2011 was $1.2 million and primarily resulted from an $8.3 million decrease in accounts receivable, and $1.2 million from net income excluding non-cash charges, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable to $8.1 million, and an increase in inventory of $0.1 million. The decreases in accounts receivable and accounts payable were mainly due to lower sales volume in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the fourth quarter of 2010.
Net cash provided by investing activities in the first three months of 2011 amounted to $2.1 million. This primarily resulted from net sales of $2.2 million in marketable securities offset by capital expenditures of $0.1 million. These marketable securities are highly rated , highly liquid and are classified as available-for-sale securities in accordance with ASC Topic 320 Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, and as a result, unrealized gains and losses are reported as part of accumulated other comprehensive income.
Net cash used in financing activities in the first three months of 2011 amounted to $1.3 million. This consisted primarily of dividends paid of $0.8 million and Common Stock repurchases of $0.6 million, partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $0.1 million.
The Companys current and anticipated use of its cash and cash equivalents is, and will continue to be, to fund working capital, operational expenditures, the Common Stock repurchase program and dividends if declared by the board of directors. The Companys business plan furthermore contemplates our continuing use of our cash to pay vendors promptly in order to obtain more favorable terms.
We believe that the funds held in cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund our working capital and cash requirements for at least the next 12 months. Currently we do not have any credit facility and, in the foreseeable future, we do not believe that the Company will enter into a credit facility.

(1) Operating leases primarily relate to the leases of the space used for our operations in Shrewsbury, New Jersey, and Mississauga, Canada. The commitments for operating leases include the minimum rent payments and a proportionate share of operating expenses and property taxes.
The Company is not committed by lines of credit or standby letters of credit, and has no standby repurchase obligations or other commercial debt commitments. The Company is not engaged in any transactions with related parties.
The Companys Canadian business is subject to changes in demand or pricing resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates or other factors. We are subject to fluctuations in the Canadian Dollar to U.S. Dollar exchange rate.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2011, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Managements discussion and analysis of the Companys financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Companys unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Generally, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of software and hardware for microcomputers, servers and networks upon shipment or upon electronic delivery of the product as previously described herein. The Company expenses the advertising costs associated with producing its catalogs. The costs of these catalogs are expensed in the same month the catalogs are mailed.
On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to product returns, bad debts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, stock-based compensation and costs associated with exit or disposal activities, and contingencies and litigation.
The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The Companys actual results may differ from these estimates.
The Company believes the following critical accounting policies described below, used in the preparation of its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, affect its more significant judgments and estimates.
The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Companys customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
The Company writes down its inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory in an amount equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-offs may be required.
The Company has considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets. In the event the Company was to determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.
Under the fair value recognition provision stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense as it is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. We make certain assumptions in order to value and expense our various share-based compensation awards. In connection with valuing stock options, we use the Black-Scholes model, which requires us to consider certain facts and to estimate certain subjective assumptions. The key facts and assumptions we consider are: (i) the expected volatility of our Common Stock; (ii) the expected term of the award; and (iii) the expected forfeiture rate. In connection with valuing shares of our Restricted Stock we make assumptions principally related to the forfeiture rate. We review our valuation assumptions periodically and, as a result, we may change our valuation assumptions used to value Common Stock based compensation awards granted in future periods. Such changes may lead to a significant change in the expense we recognize in connection with share-based compensation.
Certain Factors Affecting Results of Operations and Stock Price
This report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Statements in this report regarding future events or conditions, including statements regarding industry prospects and the Companys expected financial position, results of operations (including sales and gross profit margin), business and financing plans, are forward-looking statements. These statements can be identified by forward-looking words such as may, will, expect, intend, anticipate, believe, estimate and continue or similar words. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Substantial risks and uncertainties unknown at this time could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the continued acceptance of the Companys distribution channel by vendors and customers, the timely availability and acceptance of new products, product mix, market conditions, contribution of key vendor relationships and support programs, as well as factors that affect the software industry in general and other factors. We strongly urge current and prospective investors to carefully consider the cautionary statements and risk factors contained in this report and our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
The Company operates in a rapidly changing business environment, and new risk factors emerge from time to time. Management cannot predict every risk factor, nor can it assess the impact, if any, that all such risk factors may have on the Companys business or the extent to which any one risk factor, or any combination of risk factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements.
Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a prediction of actual results and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their dates. Unless otherwise required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Stock Volatility. The technology sector and the United States stock markets continue to experience substantial volatility. Numerous conditions, which impact the technology sector or the stock markets in general, and/or the Company in particular, whether or not such events relate to or reflect upon the Companys operating performance, could adversely affect the market price of the Companys Common Stock.
Furthermore, fluctuations in the Companys operating results, announcements regarding litigation, the loss of a significant vendor, increased competition, reduced vendor incentives and trade credit, higher operating expenses, and other developments, could have a significant impact on the market price of the Companys Common Stock.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
In addition to its activities in the United States, the Company also conducts business in Canada. We are subject to general risks attendant to the conduct of business in Canada, including economic uncertainties and foreign government regulations. In addition, the Companys Canadian business is subject to changes in demand or pricing resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates or other factors. See Item 2 Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Results of Operations - Foreign Currency Transactions Gain (Loss).
The Companys $2.3 million investments in marketable securities at March 31, 2011 are invested in highly rated and liquid U.S. government securities and insured certificates of deposit. The remaining cash balance is invested in short-term savings accounts with our primary bank, JPMorgan Chase Bank. As such, we believe that the risk of significant changes in the value of our cash invested is minimal.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management is responsible for and carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of various members of our management, including our Companys President, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer (principal financial officer). Based upon that evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act, that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2011, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
