Notes to consolidated financial statements

(Unaudited)

1. Organization

Blackbaud, Inc. (the Company) is the leading global provider of software and related services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations, and provides products and services that enable nonprofit organizations to increase donations, reduce fundraising costs, improve communications with constituents, manage their finances and optimize internal operations. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had approximately 23,000 active customers distributed across multiple verticals within the nonprofit market including education, foundations, health and human services, religion, arts and cultural, public and societal benefits, environment and animal welfare and international foreign affairs.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

Unaudited interim financial statements

The interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2010, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. These consolidated statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to state fairly the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of cash flows and consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2009 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010 or any other future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations for interim reporting of the SEC. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and other forms filed with the SEC from time to time.

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded net out-of-period adjustments resulting in a net increase to expense of $0.2 million which is comprised of (1) $0.3 million, net of tax, for the reversal of an accrual associated with compensation expense related to 2009, offset by (2) $0.5 million, net of tax, of commission expense for the correction of errors in the recognition of deferred sales commissions. The Company has determined that the net impact of these out-of-period adjustments is immaterial to the results of operations in all applicable current and prior interim and annual periods. The Company also expects the impact of the adjustments to be immaterial to the full year 2010 results of operations.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company evaluates subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Areas of the financial statements where estimates may have the most significant effect include revenue recognition, the allowance for sales returns and doubtful accounts, valuation of long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation and provision for income taxes and valuation of deferred tax assets. Changes in the facts or circumstances underlying these estimates could result in material changes and actual results could differ from these estimates.

The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from the following sources: (1) selling perpetual licenses of its software products, (2) providing professional services including implementation, training, consulting, hosting and other services, (3) providing software maintenance and support services and (4) charging for the use of its software products in a hosted environment.

License fees

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of perpetual software license rights when all of the following conditions are met:

 

   

persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

 

   

the product has been delivered;

 

   

the fee is fixed or determinable; and

 

   

collection of the resulting receivable is probable.

The Company deems execution of an agreement to be evidence of an arrangement. Delivery occurs when the product is shipped or transmitted, and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customers. The Company’s typical license agreement does not include customer acceptance provisions; however, if acceptance provisions are provided, delivery is deemed to occur upon acceptance. The Company considers the fee to be fixed or determinable unless the fee is subject to refund or adjustment or is not payable within the Company’s standard payment terms. Payment terms greater than 90 days are considered to be beyond the Company’s customary payment terms. Collection is deemed probable if the Company expects that the customer will be able to pay amounts under the arrangement as they become due. If the Company determines that collection is not probable, it defers revenue recognition until collection.

The Company sells software licenses with maintenance, varying levels of professional services and, in certain instances, with hosting services. The Company allocates revenue to delivered components, normally the license component of the arrangement, using the residual value method based on objective evidence of the fair value of the undelivered elements, which is specific to the Company. Fair value for maintenance services associated with software licenses is based upon renewal rates stated in the agreements with customers, which vary according to the level of support service provided under the maintenance program. Fair value of professional services and other products and services is based on sales of these products and services to other customers when sold on a stand-alone basis. When a software license is sold with software customization services, generally the services are to provide customer support for assistance in creating special reports and other enhancements that will assist with efforts to improve operational efficiency and/or to support business process improvements. These services are not essential to the functionality of the software. However, when software customization services are considered essential to the functionality of the software, the Company recognizes revenue for both the software license and the services on a percent-complete basis.

Services

The Company generally bills consulting, installation and implementation services based on hourly rates plus reimbursable travel-related expenses. Revenue is recognized for these services over the period the services are performed. For service engagements of less than $10,000, the Company frequently contracts for and bills based on a fixed fee plus reimbursable travel-related expenses. The Company recognizes this revenue upon completion of the work performed.

The Company recognizes analytic services revenue from donor prospect research engagements, the sale of lists of potential donors, benchmarking studies and data modeling service engagements upon delivery.

The Company sells training at a fixed rate for each specific class, at a per attendee price or at a packaged price for several attendees, and revenue is recognized only upon the customer attending and completing training. Additionally, the Company sells a fixed-rate program, which permits customers to attend unlimited training over a specified contract period, typically one year, subject to certain restrictions, and revenue is recognized ratably over this contract period.

Maintenance

The Company recognizes revenue from maintenance services ratably over the contract term, which is typically one year. Maintenance contracts are at rates that vary according to the level of the maintenance program and are generally renewable annually. Maintenance contracts also include the right to unspecified product upgrades on an if-and-when available basis. Certain support services are sold in prepaid units of time and recognized as revenue upon their usage.

Subscriptions

The Company provides hosting services to customers who have purchased perpetual rights to certain of its software products (hosting services). Revenue from hosting services, as well as data enrichment services, data management services and online training programs is recognized ratably over the service period of the contract. Any related set-up fees are also recognized ratably over the service period of the contract.

The Company makes certain of its software products available for use in hosted application arrangements without licensing perpetual rights to the software (hosted applications). Revenue from hosted applications is recognized over the subscription agreement, which generally ranges from one to three years. For contractual arrangements covering the use of hosted applications, the stand-alone value of the delivered items or the fair value of undelivered items in the arrangement has not been established. Such items include upfront activation, implementation and hosting of the solution. For these arrangements the Company treats the transaction as a single element and the revenue is deferred until the hosted application is deployed and in use, at which time revenue is recognized over the remaining term of the arrangement. Direct and incremental costs relating to activation and implementation are capitalized until the hosted application is deployed and in use, and then expensed over the remaining term of the arrangement.

Revenue from transaction processing fees is recognized when received. Credit card fees directly associated with processing donations for customers are included in subscription revenue, net of related transaction costs.

Deferred revenue

To the extent that the Company’s customers are billed or pay for the above described services in advance of delivery, the Company records such amounts in deferred revenue.

Goodwill

As discussed in Note 13, the Company reorganized its business into three operating units which resulted in a change in reportable segments effective January 1, 2010. As a result of the change in reportable segments, the Company tested goodwill for impairment as of January 1, 2010 and there was no impairment of goodwill. Goodwill has been reallocated among the new reportable segments as of December 31, 2009. The change in goodwill by reportable segment during the six months ended June 30, 2010 consisted of the following:

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In October 2009, the FASB released Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-13, which amends the existing criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. Arrangements that include perpetual software licenses are excluded from the scope of this ASU. ASU 2009-13 establishes a hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable and requires the use of best estimate of the selling price when VSOE or third party evidence (TPE) of the selling price cannot be determined. As a result of the requirement to use the best estimate of the selling price when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence of the selling price cannot be determined, the residual method will no longer be permitted. ASU 2009-13 is applicable prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified after the adoption date or retrospectively for all periods presented. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2009-13 on January 1, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2009-13 on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Business combinations

RLC

On April 29, 2009, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of RLC Customer Centric Technology B.V. (RLC), a privately held limited liability company based in the Netherlands, for €1.8 million in cash, or the equivalent of $2.4 million based on the foreign exchange rate at the time of the acquisition. The acquisition of RLC provided the Company with a foundation to expand into the Netherlands and other Western European markets. The results of operations of RLC are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the

International Business Unit reportable segment (see Note 13) from the date of acquisition. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, total revenue from RLC was $1.4 million and cost of revenue was $0.7 million. During the period from the date of acquisition through June 30, 2009 total revenue from RLC was $0.4 million and cost of revenue was $0.2 million.

In addition to the initial purchase price, the Company may be required to pay up to a maximum of €400,000, or the equivalent of $0.5 million based on the foreign exchange rate at the time of the acquisition, in earn-out payments if RLC meets revenue and EBITDA margin targets, as defined in the agreement, over the two years subsequent to the acquisition. A liability of $0.2 million was initially recognized for the estimated contingent consideration that will be paid based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow valuation technique. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized $0.1 million of income, as a result of the change in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability. This amount was recorded as a reduction of general and administrative expense.

4. Earnings per share

The Company computes basic earnings per share by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares then outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities, using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and settlement of stock appreciation rights, vesting of shares of non-vested restricted stock and vesting of shares of non-vested performance share award restricted stock units. Additionally, dilutive potential common shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 includes shares issuable for certain contingent liabilities that were payable in shares of common stock based on the number of shares that would be issuable if June 30, 2009 had been the end of the contingency period. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

8. Debt

The Company has a five-year $75.0 million revolving credit facility, which expires July 2012. Under the terms of the credit agreement, the Company may elect not more than twice over the term of the agreement to increase the amount available under the facility for an aggregate amount of up to $50.0 million, subject to certain terms and conditions. In 2008, the Company exercised one of its options and increased the credit facility by $15.0 million to an aggregate available amount of $90.0 million. The revolving credit facility is guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries and is collateralized with the Company’s equity holdings in all of its subsidiaries.

Amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a variable rate based (a) on the higher of the prime rate plus a margin of up to 0.5% or federal funds rate plus a margin of 0.5% to 1.0% (Base Rate Loans) or (b) LIBOR plus a margin of 1.0% to 1.5% (LIBOR Loans). The exact amount of any margin depends on the nature of the loan and the leverage ratio at the time of the borrowing. At June 30, 2010, the weighted average interest rate on the credit facility was 1.35%. The Company also pays a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility equal to 0.2%, 0.25% or 0.3% per annum, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.

Under the credit facility the Company has the ability to choose either Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans. Base rate borrowings mature in July 2012. LIBOR Loans can have one, two, three or six month maturities, and the Company has the ability to extend the maturity of these loans by rolling them at their maturity into new loans with the same or longer maturities. The Company evaluates the classification of its debt based on the maturity of individual borrowings and any roll-over of borrowings subsequent to the balance sheet date, but prior to issuance of the financial statements. At June 30, 2010, outstanding borrowings under the credit facility were $3.5 million, all of which were in the form of short-term LIBOR Loans, and accordingly classified as current liabilities. The fair value of the borrowings under the credit facility approximates the carrying value due to the short-term nature of the borrowings.

Note payable

As a result of the acquisition of Kintera, the Company assumed a note payable that Kintera had executed on December 1, 2007 in the amount of $3.2 million for the purchase of computer equipment. The note is collateralized by the underlying computer equipment, bears interest at a rate of 11.34% and has a maturity date of November 30, 2010. The Company recorded the note at its fair value as of the acquisition date, which resulted in an increase of $0.1 million in the carrying value. Based on the short-term nature of the note payable at June 30, 2010, the Company has determined that the fair value of this note payable approximates its carrying value of $0.7 million.

9. Commitments and contingencies

Leases

The Company leases its headquarters facility from Duck Pond Creek, LLC. Two current executive officers of the Company each have a 4% ownership interest in Duck Pond Creek, LLC. The lease agreement has a term of 15 years with two five-year renewal options by the Company. The annual base rent of the lease is $3.6 million payable in equal monthly installments. The base rent escalates annually at a rate equal to the change in the consumer price index, as defined in the agreement, but not to exceed 5.5% in any year. In addition, under the terms of the lease, the lessor will reimburse the Company an aggregate amount of $4.0 million for leasehold improvements, which will be recorded as a reduction to rent expense ratably over the term of the lease. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 rent expense was reduced by $66,700 and $133,400, respectively, related to this lease provision. The $4.0 million leasehold improvement allowance has been included in the table below of operating lease commitments as a reduction in the Company’s lease commitments ratably over the then remaining life of the lease from October 2008. The timing of the reimbursements for the actual leasehold improvements may vary from the amount reflected in the table below.

Additionally, the Company has subleased a portion of its facilities under various agreements extending through 2012. The operating lease commitments in the table below have been reduced by minimum aggregate sublease commitments of $0.2 million, $0.3 million and $0.2 million during 2010, 2011 and 2012, respectively. No minimum aggregate sublease commitments exist after 2012. Rent expense was reduced by sublease income of $112,000 and $106,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $224,000 and $210,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company has also received, and expects to receive through 2012, quarterly South Carolina state incentive payments as a result of locating its headquarters facility in Berkeley County, South Carolina. These amounts are recorded as a reduction of rent expense and were $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and were $1.1 million and $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Additionally, the Company leases various office space and equipment under operating leases. The Company also has various non-cancelable capital leases for computer equipment and furniture.

As of June 30, 2010, the future minimum lease commitments related to lease agreements, net of related sublease commitments and lease incentives, were as follows:

million through 2013. The Company incurred expense under these arrangements of $1.2 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $2.2 million and $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Legal contingencies

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company records an accrual for a contingency when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not believe the amount of potential liability with respect to these actions will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

10. Income taxes

The Company calculated the provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 using the 2010 projected annual effective tax rate of 38.3%, which excludes period-specific items. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, including the effects of period-specific events, was as follows:

 

          Three months ended June 30,           Six months ended June 30,  
          2010      2009            2010       2009    

    Effective tax rate

        37.8%      38.1 %           38.0 %      40.4 %   

There were no material period-specific items recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. Period-specific items recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 included an increase of $0.8 million in the valuation allowance for certain state tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards and a correction of an immaterial prior period error of $0.4 million, which reduced income tax expense.

The Company has deferred tax assets for, among other items, federal net operating loss carryforwards, state net operating loss carryforwards, and state tax credits. A portion of the state net operating loss carryforwards and state tax credits have a valuation reserve due to the uncertainty of realizing such carryforwards and credits in the future. Additionally, the Company has a valuation allowance for certain state deferred tax assets acquired from Kintera.

The Company recorded net excess tax benefits on stock option exercises and restricted stock vesting of $1.0 million and $0.4 million in stockholders’ equity during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefit that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective tax rate was $1.1 million at June 30, 2010. The total amount of interest and penalties included in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2010 was $0.2 million. The Company has taken positions in certain taxing jurisdictions for which it is reasonably possible that these unrecognized tax benefits may significantly decrease within the next twelve months and be recognized as a reduction of tax expense. The possible decrease relates to state nexus issues and could result from the finalization of state income tax reviews and/or the expiration of statutes of limitations.

11. Stock-based compensation

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company issued 1,000 shares of restricted stock and 200,000 stock appreciation rights with an aggregate grant date fair value of $23,000 and $1.3 million, respectively. The Company also issued performance share awards of restricted stock units to certain executive officers with an aggregate grant date value range of zero to $2.1 million depending on the achievement of the various performance targets. Under the performance share award agreements, if the minimum performance targets are not met, the restricted stock units will

not vest and no shares of the Company’s common stock will be granted. Compensation cost for the performance awards is recognized to the extent the performance targets are achieved using the graded-vesting method over the requisite service period of 3 years. No stock options were issued in the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Stock-based compensation expense is allocated to expense categories on the consolidated statements of operations. The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

12. Stockholders’ equity

Dividends

The following table provides information with respect to quarterly dividends paid on common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

 

Declaration Date   Dividend per Share   Record Date   Payable Date

February 2010

  $0.11   February 26   March 15

April 2010

  $0.11   May 28   June 15

In July 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a third quarter dividend of $0.11 per share payable on September 15, 2010 to stockholders of record on August 27, 2010.

Stock surrenders

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights holders surrendered 7,979 shares of common stock, totaling $0.2 million, to satisfy their tax obligations due upon vesting.

Stock repurchase program

Effective August 1, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program that authorizes the Company to purchase up to $50.0 million of its outstanding shares of common stock. The prior program expired on July 31, 2010 and the remaining balance at the time of expiration was $8.2 million. The new program does not have an expiration date. The shares can be purchased from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions depending upon market conditions and other factors.

The Company accounts for purchases of treasury stock under the cost method. During the six months ended June 30, 2010 the Company purchased 958,086 shares for $21.5 million.

13. Segment information

Effective January 1, 2010, the Company reorganized its business into three operating units to better align its organization around key customer groups. The three operating units are the Enterprise Customer Business Unit (ECBU), the General Markets Business Unit (GMBU) and the International Business Unit (IBU).

Following is a description of each operating unit:

 

   

The ECBU is focused on marketing, sales, delivery and support to large and/or strategic, specifically identified named prospects and customers in North America. In addition, ECBU is focused on marketing, sales and delivery of analytic services to all prospects and customers in North America.

 

   

The GMBU is focused on marketing, sales, delivery and support to all emerging and mid-sized prospects and customers in North America that are not specifically identified as ECBU prospects and customers.

 

   

The IBU is focused on marketing, sales, delivery and support to all prospects and customers outside of North America.

The Company has determined that the three operating units represent the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its chief executive officer, or CEO. The CEO reviews financial information presented on an operating segment basis for the purposes of making certain operating decisions and assessing financial performance. The CEO uses internal financial reports that provide segment revenues and operating income, excluding stock-based compensation expense, amortization expense, depreciation expense, research and development expense and certain corporate sales, marketing, general and administrative expenses. The

CEO believes that the exclusion of these costs allows for a better understanding of the operating performance of the operating units and management of other operating expenses and cash needs. The CEO does not review any segment balance sheet information.

The Company has recast its segment disclosures for 2009 in order to present comparable financial results for the new reportable segments. Summarized reportable segment financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

Item 2. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements reflect our current view with respect to future events and financial performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those set forth under “Cautionary statement” included in this “Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations” and elsewhere in this report, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical or anticipated results.

Executive summary

We are the leading global provider of software and related services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations. Our products and services enable nonprofit organizations to increase donations, reduce fundraising costs, improve communications with constituents, manage finances and optimize internal operations. We have focused solely on the nonprofit market since our incorporation in 1982 and have developed our suite of products and services based upon our extensive knowledge of the operating challenges facing nonprofit organizations. As of June 30, 2010, we had approximately 23,000 active customers. Our customers operate in multiple verticals within the nonprofit market, including education, foundations, health and human services, religion, arts and cultural, public and societal benefits, environment and animal welfare and international foreign affairs.

We derive revenue from selling perpetual licenses or charging for the use of our software products in a hosted environment and providing a broad offering of services, including consulting, training, installation and implementation, as well as ongoing customer support and maintenance. Consulting, training and implementation services are generally not essential to the functionality of our software products and are sold separately. Furthermore, we derive revenue from providing hosting services, performing donor prospect research engagements, selling lists of potential donors, and providing benchmarking studies and data modeling services.

Overall, revenue for the second quarter of 2010 and the first six months of 2010 increased 6% and 4% compared to the same periods in 2009, respectively. When removing the impact of foreign currency translation, revenue increased by 5% and 2% when comparing the second quarter of 2010 and the first six months of 2010 to the same periods in 2009, respectively. Revenue associated with our core perpetual license offerings and related services have decreased when compared with the first six months of 2009 as a result of the continuing decreases in sales of our perpetual license offerings to the mid-market customer base. However, our recurring revenue, which is comprised of maintenance and subscription offerings and represents 64% of our revenue on a combined basis, continues to experience growth. The growth in maintenance revenue was principally driven by maintaining high renewal rates, new maintenance contracts associated with new license arrangements and existing client increases. The growth in subscription revenue is principally attributable to increased demand for our hosting services, online fundraising and data management offerings.

We continued to closely manage our operating expenses and focus on achieving a targeted level of profitability. Income from operations for the second quarter of 2010 and the first six months of 2010 increased by approximately $0.3 million and $2.2 million compared to the same periods in 2009, respectively. The increase in income from operations is primarily attributable to the increase in maintenance and subscription gross profit which is driven by our continued strong retention rate for our recurring revenue and the scalability of our infrastructure that supports these offerings.

We ended the second quarter of 2010 with cash and cash equivalents totaling $13.3 million and $3.5 million of outstanding borrowings on our credit facility. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we generated $24.7 million in cash flows from our operations, which we used to pay $9.8 million in dividends and to purchase $21.5 million of treasury stock.

We expect that our operating environment will remain challenging in 2010 as existing and prospective customers continue to exercise caution in expenditure decisions. Notwithstanding these conditions, we remain focused on execution, investing in our key growth initiatives and strengthening our leadership position. To the extent our operating results continue to be challenged by a weakened economic environment, we will focus on controlling and, as necessary, reducing costs and expenses of our operations to achieve our targeted level of profitability.

Results of operations

Comparison of the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

We completed the acquisition of RLC, on April 29, 2009. We have included RLC’s results of operations in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition, which impacts the comparability of our results of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, RLC’s total revenue was $1.4 million and cost of revenue was $0.7 million compared to total revenue of $0.4 million and cost of revenue of $0.2 million for the partial period from the date of acquisition through June 30, 2009.

Revenue

Total revenue increased $4.3 million, or 6%, in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the second quarter of 2009. The increase in revenue is primarily attributable to growth in our maintenance and subscription revenue. The increase in maintenance revenue is attributable to new maintenance contracts associated with new license agreements sold over the last twelve months and increases in contracts with existing customers when comparing the second quarter of 2010 to the same period in 2009. The increase in subscription revenue is primarily attributable to an increase in demand for our hosting services, online fundraising and data management offerings. The growth in revenue from our subscription offerings is also a result of the ongoing evolution of our product offerings from license-based to subscription-based offerings. License fees growth is primarily due to a greater contribution in the second quarter 2010 from Blackbaud Enterprise CRM perpetual license arrangements that had upfront revenue recognition. These increases are offset by a decrease in services revenue which is principally attributable to a decrease in revenue from consulting and educational services.

Total revenue increased $5.7 million, or 4%, in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. The increase in revenue is primarily due to increases in maintenance and subscriptions revenue, partially offset by decreases in license fees and services revenue. The increase in maintenance revenue is attributable to new maintenance contracts associated with new license agreements and increases in contracts with existing customers. The increase in subscription revenue is principally due to an increase in demand for our hosting services and online fundraising and other services. The decreases in license fees and services revenue is principally attributable to the delays and postponements of purchasing decisions by our existing and prospective customers resulting from the weak economic environment that has largely affected our mid-market customer and prospect base. Additionally, we continue to experience a shift in our customers’ buying preference away from perpetual license towards subscription-based hosted applications.

Operating results

The operating results analyzed below are presented on a non-GAAP basis; the results exclude the impact of stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations because, in managing our operations, we believe that the exclusion of these costs allows us to better understand and manage other operating expenses and cash needs. These excluded costs are analyzed separately following the discussion of operating expenses.

License fee gross margin

     87%      84%            88%      87%      

Revenue from license fees is derived from the sale of our software products under a perpetual license agreement. We continue to experience longer sales cycle times, delays and postponements of purchasing decisions and overall caution exercised by existing and prospective customers as a result of continued challenges posed by the weak economic environment. In addition, we are increasingly experiencing a shift in our customers’ buying preference away from perpetual license towards subscription-based hosted applications.

During the second quarter of 2010, revenue from license fees to existing customers increased $0.4 million and sales to new customers increased by $0.8 million. The increase in license fees is largely impacted by a greater contribution in the second quarter of 2010 from Blackbaud Enterprise CRM arrangements with upfront revenue recognition when compared to the second quarter of 2009.

During the first six months of 2010, revenue from license fees to existing customers increased $0.4 million, offset by a $1.5 million decrease in sales to new customers. The decrease in license fees is largely impacted by a greater contribution in the first six months of 2009 from Blackbaud Enterprise CRM arrangements with upfront revenue recognition when compared to the first six months of 2010.

Direct controllable cost of license fees is principally comprised of third-party software royalties and variable reseller commissions. Cost of license fees remained unchanged for the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease in cost of license fees in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is primarily attributable to lower third-party software royalty costs. Third-party software royalty costs have decreased due to the decrease in sales of perpetual licenses when comparing the first six months of 2010 to the same period in 2009.

The increase in license fee gross margin in the second quarter of 2010 and the first six months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 is the result of a change in the mix of products sold. During 2010, we sold fewer products that have third-party software royalty costs associated with them.

Services gross margin

     28%      34%            26%      30%      

Services revenue consists of consulting, installation, implementation, education services and analytic services. Consulting, installation and implementation services involve converting data from a customer’s existing system, assisting in file set up and system configuration, and/or process re-engineering. Education services involve

Table of Contents

Item 2. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (continued)

 

customer training activities. Analytic services are comprised of donor prospect research, selling lists of potential donors, benchmarking studies and data modeling services. These services involve the assessment of current and prospective donor information of the customer and are performed using our proprietary analytical tools. The end product enables the customer to more effectively target its fundraising activities.

Overall, the decrease in services revenue during the second quarter of 2010 when compared to the same period in 2009 is principally attributable to a decrease in education service revenue of $1.0 million and consulting services revenue of $0.8 million, offset by an increase in analytic services revenue of $0.2 million. The rates we charge for our education and analytic service offerings have remained relatively constant year over year and, as such, the change in revenue is principally the result of a change in volume of services provided. The decrease in consulting services revenue is principally attributable to an increase in our investment, which is in the form of non-billable implementation hours, in early adopters of our Blackbaud Enterprise CRM offering, which is partially offset by an increase in the volume of consulting services we delivered.

The decrease in services revenue during the first six months of 2010 when compared to the same period in 2009 is principally attributable to a decrease in education service revenue of $1.9 million, analytic services revenue of $0.3 million and consulting services revenue of $0.4 million. The rates we charge for our education and analytic service offerings have remained relatively constant year over year and, as such, the decrease in revenue is principally the result of a decrease in the volume of services provided. The decrease in consulting services revenue is principally attributable to an increase in our investment, which is in the form of non-billable implementation hours, in early adopters of our Blackbaud Enterprise CRM offering, which is partially offset by an increase in the volume of consulting services we delivered.

Cost of services is principally comprised of human resource costs, third-party contractor expenses, classroom rentals, other costs incurred in providing consulting, installation and implementation services and customer training, data expense incurred to perform analytic services and an allocation of depreciation, facilities and IT support costs. The increase in cost of services of $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2010 when compared to the same period in 2009 is primarily attributable to an increase in data expense of $0.3 million and travel and other costs of $0.4 million. These increases are offset by a decrease in human resource costs of $0.4 million. The decrease in human resource costs is principally attributable to an increase in the deferral of direct incremental costs associated with an increased number of service implementation projects where the associated revenue is also deferred.

The decrease in cost of services of $0.2 million in the first six months of 2010 when compared to the same period in 2009 is primarily attributable to a decrease in training-related costs of $0.4 million, allocated costs of $0.2 million and other costs of $0.1 million, partially offset by an increase in data expense of $0.5 million. The increase in data expense is associated with our analytic service offerings, which experienced growth in demand in the second quarter of 2010.

The services gross margin decreased in the second quarter of 2010 and the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 primarily as a result of investments we are making in early stage Blackbaud Enterprise CRM offering related consulting services.

updates, enhancements and upgrades to our software products and online, telephone and email support. The increase in maintenance revenue of $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is principally comprised of $3.3 million of maintenance with new customers associated with new license agreements and increases in contracts with existing customers and $0.1 million from maintenance contract inflationary rate adjustments, offset by $1.3 million from maintenance contracts that were not renewed.

The increase in maintenance revenue of $4.7 million in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is principally comprised of $6.4 million of maintenance with new customers associated with new license agreements and increases in contracts with existing customers and $0.2 million from maintenance contract inflationary rate adjustments, offset by $1.9 million from maintenance contracts that were not renewed.

Direct controllable cost of maintenance is primarily comprised of human resource costs, third-party contractor expenses, third-party royalty costs, an allocation of depreciation, facilities and IT support costs and other costs incurred in providing support and services to our customers. The increase in cost of maintenance in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is principally attributable to an increase in proprietary software costs of $0.2 million and human resource costs of $0.2 million. The increase in proprietary software costs is attributable to increases in maintenance contracts with existing customers for software products which include third-party royalty costs associated with the maintenance revenue. Human resource costs increased due to salary merit increases and an increase in headcount to meet the volume of our new maintenance contracts and increases in our existing customer contracts.

The increase in cost of maintenance in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is principally attributable to an increase in proprietary software costs of $0.6 million and human resource costs of $0.5 million. The increase in proprietary software costs is attributable to increases in maintenance contracts with existing customers for software products which include third-party royalty costs associated with the maintenance revenue. Human resource costs increased due to salary merit increases and an increase in headcount associated with the continued growth in our customer support function commensurate with maintenance revenue growth.

     67%      66%            67%      66%      

Revenue from subscriptions is principally comprised of revenue from providing access to hosted applications and hosting services, access to certain data services and our online subscription training offerings, and variable transaction fees associated with the use of our products to fundraise online. We continue to experience growth in our hosted applications business and are increasingly experiencing a shift in our customers’ buying preference away from perpetual licenses towards subscription based-offerings. Additionally, revenue from our hosting services continues to increase as demand for these services continues to grow from both our existing and new perpetual license customers. The increase in subscription revenue for the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009 of $2.6 million is principally attributable to the increase in demand for hosting services, data management offerings and online fundraising offerings.

The increase in subscription revenue for the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009 of $5.1 million is principally attributable to the increase in demand for hosting services, online training, data management offerings and online fundraising offerings.

Direct controllable cost of subscriptions is primarily comprised of human resource costs, third-party royalty and data expenses, hosting expenses, an allocation of depreciation, facilities and IT support costs and other costs incurred in providing support and services to our customers. The increase in cost of subscriptions in second quarter of 2010

compared to the same period in 2009 is principally due to an increase in data expense, hosting and other costs of $0.4 million resulting from an increase in the demand for hosting and other online services. Human resource costs also increased by $0.3 million as a result of an increase in headcount.

The increase in cost of subscriptions in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is principally due to an increase in data expense, hosting and other costs resulting from an increase in the demand for hosting and other online services.

The increase in subscriptions gross margin in the second quarter of 2010 and the first six months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 is due to an increase in demand for our subscription-based offerings and the scalability of our infrastructure that supports these offerings.

Other revenue includes the sale of business forms that are used in conjunction with our software products; reimbursement of travel-related expenses, primarily incurred during the performance of services at customer locations and fees from user conferences. Other revenue remained unchanged in the second quarter of 2010 when compared to the same period in 2009. Other revenue decreased in the first six months of 2010 when compared to the same period in 2009 primarily due to a decrease in fees from user conferences as a result of consolidating conferences previously held early in the year into our primary conference which occurs during the fourth quarter each year.

Direct controllable cost of other revenue includes human resource costs, costs of business forms, costs of user conferences, reimbursable expenses related to the performance of services at customer locations and an allocation of depreciation, facilities and IT support costs. The decrease in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is due to a decrease in conference costs. The decrease in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is due to a decrease in the number of user conferences and the related costs, and a decrease in reimbursable travel expenses related to providing services at customer locations.

The increase in other gross margin for the second quarter and the first six months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 is principally due to a decrease in user conferences and the associated revenue and costs.

Operating expenses

The operating expenses analyzed below are presented on a non-GAAP basis in that they exclude stock-based compensation expense. We believe that the exclusion of these costs allows us to better understand and manage other operating expenses and cash needs. Stock-based compensation expense is analyzed separately following the operating expense analysis.

     23%      19%            22%      20%      

Sales and marketing expense includes salaries and related human resource costs, travel-related expenses, sales commissions, advertising and marketing materials, public relations and an allocation of depreciation, facilities and IT support costs. Sales and marketing expense in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 increased by $3.9 million principally due to an increase of $1.6 million in commission expense. The increase in commission expense is due to higher commission rates and an increased amount of commissionable revenue in 2010, and an out of period adjustment of $0.8 million recorded during the second quarter of 2010 related to our accounting for deferred sales commissions. Additionally, human resources costs increased by $0.8 million as a result of additional headcount, salary merit increases and travel and other marketing expenses increased by $1.5 million as a result of increased investment in selling and marketing programs to support our new offerings and newly packaged offerings.

Sales and marketing expense in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 increased by $4.2 million primarily due to an increase of $2.1 million in commission expense. The increase in commission expense is due to higher commission rates and an increased amount of commissionable revenue in 2010, and an out of period adjustment of $0.8 million recorded during the first six months of 2010 related to our accounting for deferred sales commissions. Additionally, human resource costs increased by $0.7 million as a result of additional headcount, salary merit increases and travel and other marketing expenses increased by $1.4 million as a result of increased investment in selling and marketing programs to support our new offerings and newly packaged offerings.

As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expense in the second quarter and first six months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 increased principally as a result of higher commission rates, higher commissionable sales, and additional investments in our sales and marketing efforts.

Research and development expenses include human resource costs, third-party contractor expenses, software development tools and other expenses related to developing new products, upgrading and enhancing existing products and an allocation of depreciation, facilities and IT support costs. The increase in research and development costs during the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is primarily due to an increase in human resource costs of $0.6 million principally attributable to salary merit increases, partially offset by $0.2 million in costs allocated to cost of services commensurate with the development efforts supporting product customizations under revenue generating arrangements. Human resource costs have increased as we continue to invest in our products development efforts.

The decrease in research and development costs during the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is primarily due to a decrease in human resource costs. The decrease in human resources costs is the result of allocating costs to cost of services commensurate with the development efforts supporting product customizations under revenue generating arrangements.

General and administrative expense consists primarily of human resource costs for general corporate functions, including senior management, finance, accounting, legal, human resources, corporate development, third-party professional fees, insurance, an allocation of depreciation, facilities and IT support costs, and other administrative expenses. During the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009, the decrease in general and administrative expense was principally due to a decrease in human resource costs of $1.1 million, bad debt expense of $0.2 million and other costs of $0.1 million. The decrease in human resource costs is primarily due to a decrease in headcount resulting from consolidation and centralization efforts of our accounting function in the second half of 2009 and first quarter of 2010.

During the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009, the decrease in general and administrative expense was principally due to a decrease in human resource costs of $1.5 million, bad debt expense of $0.2 million and other costs of $0.2 million. The decrease in human resource costs is primarily due to a decrease in headcount resulting from consolidation and centralization efforts of our accounting function in the second half of 2009 and first quarter of 2010.

The decrease in general and administrative costs as a percentage of revenue during the second quarter of 2010 and the first six months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 is principally attributable to the realization of cost reductions resulting from the consolidation and centralization efforts in our accounting function implemented in the second half of 2009 and first quarter 2010.

Stock-based compensation

We recognize compensation expense related to stock-based awards granted to employees. We measure stock-based compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and recognize it as expense over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.

Our consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 include the amounts of stock-based compensation illustrated below:

During the second quarter of 2009 and the first six months of 2009, we expensed $0.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively, related to compensation and incentive arrangements payable in common stock associated with business acquisitions completed in 2008 and 2007. There were no similar arrangements payable in common stock in the first six months of 2010. Stock-based compensation expense from restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights slightly increased in the second quarter of 2010 and the first six months of 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 due to the issuance of additional grants and rights in the second half of 2009, partially offset by the vesting of grants issued in prior years.

The total amount of compensation costs related to non-vested awards not yet recognized was $22.7 million as of June 30, 2010. This amount will be recognized as expense over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.

Amortization

We allocated amortization expense to cost of revenue based on the nature of the respective identifiable intangible asset and whether the asset is directly associated with a specific component of revenue. Amortization expense included in our consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 is illustrated below:

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased slightly in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. Interest expense was $0.1 million in the first six months of 2010 compared to $0.7 million for the same period in 2009. These decreases in interest expense are directly related to repayment of debt during the second half of 2009. As of June 30, 2010 we had $3.5 million of borrowings outstanding on our credit facility compared to $40.5 million at June 30, 2009 and no borrowings at December 31, 2009.

Income tax provision

We record income tax expense in our consolidated financial statements based on an estimated annual effective income tax rate, prior to any quarter-specific items. The 2010 estimated annual effective tax rate of 38.3%, which excludes period-specific items, was applied as the effective rate for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Our actual effective rates the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

 

     Three months ended June 30,    Six months ended June 30,
         
     2010    2009    2010    2009

Effective tax rate

   37.8%    38.1%    38.0%    40.4%

The higher effective rate in 2009 was attributable to a lesser amount of benefit we were able to recognize for certain state income tax credits, partially offset by a correction of an immaterial prior period error which reduced income tax expense by $0.4 million.

Our deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded at an amount based upon a U.S. federal income tax rate of 35.0% and appropriate statutory tax rates of various foreign, state and local jurisdictions in which we operate. If our tax rates change in the future, we will adjust our deferred tax assets and liabilities to an amount reflecting those income tax rates. Any change will affect the provision for income taxes during the period in which the determination is made.

The amount of unrecognized tax benefit that, if recognized, would favorably affect our effective rate as of June 30, 2010 was $1.1 million. As of June 30, 2010, the total amount of accrued interest and penalties included in the consolidated balance sheet was $0.2 million.

Item 2. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (continued)

 

We have taken positions in certain taxing jurisdictions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits may significantly decrease within the next twelve months. The possible decrease could result from the finalization of state income tax reviews and the expiration of statutes of limitations. The reasonably possible decrease is $0.3 million.

Liquidity and capital resources

At June 30, 2010, cash and cash equivalents totaled $13.3 million, compared to $22.8 million at December 31, 2009. The $9.5 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents during the first six months of 2010 is principally the result of using cash generated from operations of $24.7 million to purchase $21.5 million of treasury stock, pay $9.8 million in dividends to stockholders and buy $6.8 million of fixed assets. We also had net borrowings on our credit facility of $3.5 million during the first six months of 2010. These borrowings were used to fund a portion of our treasury stock purchases.

Our principal source of liquidity is our operating cash flow, which depends on continued customer renewal of our maintenance, support and subscription agreements and market acceptance of our products and services. Based on current estimates of revenue and expenses, we believe that the currently available sources of funds and anticipated cash flows from operations will be adequate for at least the next twelve months to finance our operations, fund anticipated capital expenditures and pay dividends. Dividend payments are not guaranteed and our Board of Directors may decide, in its absolute discretion, at any time and for any reason, not to declare or pay further dividends and/or repurchase our common stock.

At June 30, 2010, we had $3.5 million of outstanding borrowings under our credit facility. We have drawn on our credit facility from time to time to help us meet short-term financial needs, such as business acquisitions and purchases of common stock under our repurchase program. Under this five-year credit facility, which matures in July 2012, we may elect not more than twice over the five-year term of the agreement to increase the aggregate amount available of $75.0 million by up to $50.0 million. We exercised one of these options for an additional $15.0 million in June 2008. We believe our $90.0 million credit facility provides us with sufficient flexibility to meet our financial needs.

Operating cash flow

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of 2010 of $24.7 million decreased by $9.8 million when compared to the same period in 2009. Throughout both periods, our cash flows from operations were derived principally from: (i) our earnings from on-going operations prior to non-cash expenses such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation and adjustments to our provision for sales returns and allowances; (ii) the tax benefit associated with our deferred tax asset, which reduces our cash outlay for income tax; and (iii) changes in our working capital.

Working capital changes as they impact the statement of cash flows are composed of changes in accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued liabilities and deferred revenue. Net collections of accounts receivable and the change in deferred revenue represent a net decrease in cash associated with working capital changes of $2.4 million in the first six months of 2010 and a net increase of $5.2 million in the first six months of 2009. The year-over-year change is principally due to a decrease in the collections of accounts receivable in the first six months of 2010 when compared to the same period in 2009, partially offset by a decrease in the billings in the first six months of 2010 when compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease in collections is primarily the result of a difference in the timing of billings. Changes in our balances of accounts payable, prepaid expenses, accrued liabilities and other current assets and liabilities represent a net decrease in cash associated with working capital changes of $0.8 million in first six months of 2010 and a net increase of $0.5 million for the same period in 2009, respectively. The primary driver of the increase in the net cash flow associated with these accounts is principally attributable to fluctuations in the timing of payments to vendors, partially offset by an increase in the portion of currently payable income tax liability and an increase in the amount of bonuses paid in 2010 when compared to 2009.

Investing cash flow

Net cash used in the first six months of 2010 for investing activities was $9.3 million compared to $4.9 million in the same period in 2009. The increase is principally due to an increase in payments for property and equipment of $4.1 million, of which $3.7 million relates to purchases made at the end of 2009.

Financing cash flow

Net cash used in financing activities for the first six months of 2010 was $24.5 million compared to $27.3 million in the same period in 2009. During the first six months of 2010, cash used for financing activities was principally attributable to $21.5 million of treasury stock purchases and $9.8 million of dividend payments to stockholders, partially offset by borrowings on our credit facility and proceeds from stock option exercises. During the first six months of 2009, cash used for financing activities was principally attributable to $19.0 million of payments on debt and $8.8 million of dividend payments to stockholders.

Commitments and contingencies

As of June 30, 2010, we had $4.2 million of outstanding debt and future minimum lease commitments of $67.0 million. There were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in our contractual obligations since December 31, 2009.

We utilize third-party relationships in conjunction with our products. The contractual arrangements vary in length from one to three years. In certain cases, these arrangements require a minimum annual purchase commitment. The total minimum purchase commitments under these arrangements at June 30, 2010 are $5.7 million through 2013. We incurred expense under these arrangements of $1.2 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $2.2 million and $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

In February 2010, our Board of Directors approved our annual dividend of $0.44 per share for 2010. Dividends at the annual rate would aggregate to $19.4 million assuming 44 million shares of common stock are outstanding. Our ability to continue to declare and pay dividends may be restricted by, among other things, the terms of our credit facility, general economic conditions and our ability to generate operating cash flow.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We do not believe we currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons.

Foreign currency exchange rates

Approximately 14% of our total net revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010 was derived from operations outside the United States. We do not have significant operations in countries in which the economy is considered to be highly inflationary. Our consolidated financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars and, accordingly, changes in the exchange rate between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar will affect the translation of our subsidiaries’ financial results into U.S. dollars for purposes of reporting our consolidated financial results. The accumulated currency translation adjustment, recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, was $0.5 million and $0.2 million at June 30, 2010 and at December 31, 2009, respectively.

The vast majority of our contracts are entered into by our U.S., Canadian or U.K. entities. The contracts entered into by the U.S. entity are almost always denominated in U.S. dollars, contracts entered into by our Canadian subsidiary are generally denominated in Canadian dollars, and contracts entered into by our U.K., Australian and Netherlands subsidiaries are generally denominated in pounds sterling, Australian dollars and euros, respectively. Historically, as the U.S. dollar weakened, foreign currency translation resulted in an increase in our revenues and expenses denominated in non-U.S. currencies. During second quarter 2010, the foreign translation has resulted in an increase

in our revenues and expenses denominated in non-U.S. currencies. Though we do not believe our increased exposure to currency exchange rates have had a material impact on our results of operations or financial position, we intend to continue to monitor such exposure and take action as appropriate.

Cautionary statement

We operate in a highly competitive environment that involves a number of risks, some of which are beyond our control. The following statement highlights some of these risks.

Statements contained in this Form 10-Q, which are not historical facts, are or might constitute forward-looking statements under the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although we believe the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our expectations will be attained. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations expressed in the report include general economic risk; lengthy sales and implementation cycles, particularly in larger organizations; uncertainty regarding increased business and renewals from existing customers; continued success in sales growth; risk associated with successful implementation of multiple integrated software products; management of integration of recently acquired companies and other risks associated with acquisitions; the ability to attract and retain key personnel; risks related to our dividend policy and stock repurchase program, including potential limitations on our ability to grow and the possibility that we might discontinue payment of dividends; risks relating to restrictions imposed by the credit facility; risks associated with management of growth; technological changes that make our products and services less competitive; and the other risk factors set forth from time to time in our SEC filings.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk

Due to the nature of our short-term investments and the lack of material debt, we have concluded at June 30, 2010 that we face no material market risk exposure. Therefore, no quantitative tabular disclosures are required. For a discussion of our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, see the “Foreign currency exchange rates” section of Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in this report.

 

Item 4. Controls and procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) are designed only to provide reasonable assurance that they will meet their objectives. As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide the reasonable assurance discussed above.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

No change in internal control over financial reporting occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter with respect to our operations, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
