A. | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying condensed financial statements of Logility, Inc. are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The financial information presented in the condensed financial statements reflects all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the periods indicated. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2003, as filed with the SEC. The interim results reflected in the condensed financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any other future period.
We are an approximately 86% owned subsidiary of American Software, Inc., a publicly held provider of enterprise resource planning solutions (NASDAQ AMSWA).
B. | Industry Segments |
We have adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. We operate and manage our business in one segment, providing business-to-business collaborative commerce solutions to optimize supply chain operations for manufacturers, distributors and retailers.
C. | Comprehensive Income |
We have adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of financial statements. We have not included statements of comprehensive income in the accompanying condensed financial statements since comprehensive income and net earnings presented in the accompanying condensed statements of operations would be substantially the same.
D. | Revenue Recognition |
We recognize revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, and SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions.
License. We recognize license revenue in connection with license agreements for standard proprietary and tailored software upon delivery of the software, provided that we consider collection to be probable, the fee is fixed or determinable, there is evidence of an arrangement, and vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) exists with respect to any undelivered elements of the arrangement. For multiple-element arrangements, we recognize revenue under the residual method as permitted by SOP 98-9, whereby (1) we defer the total fair value of the undelivered elements, as indicated by VSOE, and subsequently recognize the value of these elements in accordance with SOP 97-2 and (2) we recognize the difference between the total arrangement fee and the deferred amount as revenue related to the delivered elements.

Services and Other. Revenue derived from services and other primarily includes revenues from consulting, implementation, and training. We bill under both time and materials and fixed fee arrangements and recognize revenues as we perform the services. We classify the reimbursements that we receive for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with consulting, implementation, and training services as revenue in our statement of operations.
Maintenance. Revenue derived from maintenance contracts primarily includes telephone consulting, product updates, and releases of new versions of products previously purchased by the customer, as well as error reporting and correction services. Typically, we enter into maintenance contracts for a separate fee, with initial contractual periods ranging from one to three years, and with renewal provisions for additional periods thereafter.
We generally bill maintenance fees annually in advance. We recognize maintenance revenue ratably over the term of the maintenance agreement. In situations where we bundle all or a portion of the maintenance fee with the license fee, we determine VSOE for maintenance based on prices that apply when we sell maintenance separately, which are about 18% of the net license fee.
Indirect Channel Revenue. We recognize a sale that we make through indirect channels when the distributor makes the sale to an end-user, or upon delivery to the reseller when the license fee is fixed and determinable, the license fee is refundable, and all other conditions of SOP 97-2 and SOP 98-9 are met.
Deferred Revenue. Deferred revenue represents advance payments or billings for software licenses, services, and maintenance billed in advance of the time revenue is recognized.
E. | Net Earnings Per Common Share |
Basic net earnings per common share available to common shareholders is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. We base diluted net earnings per common share available to common shareholders on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares, such as dilutive stock options.
The numerator in calculating both basic and diluted net earnings per common share for each period is the same as net earnings. The denominator is based on the following number of common shares:

October 31, 2003
For the three months ended October 31, 2003, we excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share options to purchase 130,099 shares of common stock, and for the six months ended October 31, 2003, we excluded from that computation options to purchase 131,294 shares of common stock. For the three and six months ended October 31, 2002, we excluded options to purchase 709,945 shares of common stock from that computation. We excluded these option share amounts because the exercise prices of those options were greater than the average market price of the common stock during the applicable period. As of October 31, 2003, we had a total of 746,109 options outstanding and as of October 31, 2002 we had a total of 736,445 options outstanding.
F. | Stock Compensation Plans |
We apply the intrinsic-value-based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations including Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation, an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25, to account for our fixed-plan stock options. Under this method, we record compensation expense on the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, established accounting and disclosure requirements using a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans. As SFAS No. 123 allows, we have elected to continue to apply the intrinsic-value-based method of accounting described above, and have adopted only the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123. Accordingly, we have recognized no compensation cost for our stock option plan.
The following table illustrates the effect on net earnings (loss) if the fair-value-based method had been applied in each period:

G. | Agreements with American Software, Inc. (ASI) |
We have entered into certain contractual arrangements with ASI, as described below. Because ASI owns a majority of our shares, the terms of these agreements do not reflect arms length negotiation.
Tax Sharing AgreementIn 1997, we entered into a Tax Sharing Agreement with ASI (the Tax Sharing Agreement). Under this Agreement, we will determine with ASI the amount of taxes that we will pay, subject to certain adjustments, as if we were to file separate federal, state, and local income tax returns, rather than as a consolidated subsidiary of ASI. Pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement, we compute a separate, stand-alone income tax provision and settle balances due to or from ASI on this basis. The Tax Sharing Agreement allocated to ASI all benefits derived from deferred tax assets as defined in the Tax Sharing Agreement (which include net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards) that arose prior to our October 1997 initial public offering ($5,768,000). Accordingly, we will not receive any benefit from the $5,768,000 of contributed gross deferred tax assets. In addition, the Tax Sharing Agreement allocates to us certain deferred tax liabilities that arose prior to the initial public offering. To the extent the tax computation produces a tax benefit for us, ASI is required to pay such amounts to us only if and when ASI realizes a reduction in income taxes payable with respect to the current tax period. At April 30, 2003, ASI had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $13.0 million that ASI must utilize before we would receive payment for any currently generated tax benefits. Such net operating losses expire in varying amounts through 2022.

The Services Agreement had an initial term of three years and is renewed automatically thereafter for successive one-year terms unless either party elects not to renew. The Services Agreement has been renewed annually since the initial term. We will indemnify ASI against any damages that ASI may incur in connection with its performance of services under the Services Agreement (other than those arising from its gross negligence or willful misconduct), and ASI will indemnify us against any damages arising out of its gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with ASIs rendering of services under the Services Agreement.
Facilities AgreementWe lease various properties from ASI for specified square foot rates. The stated term of the agreement is for two years with automatic one year extensions; however, either party may terminate the agreement after a 90 day notice. ASI also allocates utilities, telephone and security expenses under this agreement based on our percentage of occupancy. Our lease of space at any facility under the agreement is limited by the term of the underlying lease between ASI and a landlord with respect to any facility leased by ASI and is subject to the disposition by ASI of any facility that ASI owns. The parties valued the services related to this agreement at $114,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2003, $111,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2002, $230,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2003, and $240,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2002. These costs include lease expense, utilities expense, telephone expense and security expenses.
Marketing License AgreementEffective August 1, 2002, we entered into a Marketing License Agreement (the Marketing License Agreement) with American Software, USA (USA), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ASI, in which USA agreed to act as a nonexclusive marketing representative for licensing of our products. The Marketing License Agreement provided that we pay USA 30% of net license fees collected by us for its services. The parties have had similar agreements in effect since 1997. The Marketing License Agreement expired July 31, 2003 and has not been extended. We incurred no payment obligations under the Marketing License Agreement for the three and six months ended October 31, 2003. The parties valued the services related to the Marketing License Agreement at $23,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2002, and $63,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2002.
Technology License AgreementWe have granted ASI a nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide right and license to use, execute, reproduce, display, modify and prepare derivatives of our Supply Chain Planning and Execution Solutions, which we call the Logility Voyager Solutions product line (which ASI had transferred to us), so that ASI may maintain and support end-users of the software products. The license is fully paid and royalty-free. Pursuant to this Agreement, the parties disclose to one another any enhancements and improvements that they may make or acquire in relation to a Logility Voyager Solutions product, subject to third-party confidentiality requirements. The term of this Agreement is indefinite, although we may terminate the Agreement for cause, and ASI may terminate it at any time upon 60 days prior written notice to us. Upon termination of this Agreement, all rights to Logility Voyager Solutions products that we license to ASI revert to us, while all rights to enhancements and improvements ASI make to Logility Voyager Solutions products revert to ASI.
Stock Option AgreementWe have granted ASI an option to purchase that number of shares of our common stock that would enable ASI to maintain the necessary ownership percentage required to consolidate Logility in ASIs consolidated Federal income tax return. The purchase price of the option is the average of the closing price on each of the five business days immediately preceding the date of payment.

H. | Lease Commitments |
We occupy our principal office facilities under a facilities agreement with ASI dated August 1, 1997, that is cancelable upon 90-day notice by either party (see note G). Amounts allocated to the Company for rent expense for these facilities were $82,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2003 and the three months ended October 31, 2002, $164,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2003, and $167,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2002. The Facilities Agreement, summarized above, is the basis for the calculation of these amounts. In addition, we have various other operating facilities leases. Rent expense under these operating facilities leases was $32,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2003, $35,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2002, $59,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2002, and $152,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2002.

These factors include, but are not limited to, continuing economic uncertainty, the timing and degree of business recovery, unpredictability and the irregular pattern of future revenues, competitive pressures, delays and other risks associated with new product development, the difficulty of predicting the effectiveness and duration of third-party marketing agreements, undetected software errors, and risks associated with market acceptance of our products and services. The terms fiscal 2004 and fiscal 2003 refer to our fiscal years ending April 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
OVERVIEW
We provide collaborative supply chain solutions to help streamline and optimize the management, production and distribution of products between manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, retailers, carriers and other organizations and their respective trading partners. The supply chain refers to the complex network of relationships that organizations maintain with trading partners (customers, suppliers and carriers) to source, manufacture, and deliver products and
12
services to the customer and includes demand chain, supply chain, logistics, warehouse management and business-to-business process management for collaborative relationships between customers, suppliers and carriers. Our solutions enable enterprises to build competitive advantages and increase profitability by significantly reducing costs, increasing revenues, improving operational efficiencies and collaborating with suppliers and customers to more effectively respond to dynamic market conditions.
Leveraging our supply chain management expertise, we have been an innovator in developing and deploying collaborative supply chain management solutions, with our first Internet-based collaborative planning solution implemented in 1996. We continue to invest and expand our Internet-based offerings and innovative solutions, which support the Voluntary Interindustry Commerce Standards Association (VICS), collaborative planning, forecasting and replenishment (CPFR®) standards, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), as well as other emerging collaborative supply chain management standards for transportation and distribution center management. We market our solutions worldwide, primarily to large enterprises that require comprehensive supply chain planning, warehouse management and logistics solutions. We make sales through a dedicated sales force and through relationships with third-party vendors and service providers.
We previously conducted our business and operations as three separate business units of American Software: a supply chain planning software group, a warehouse management software group, and a transportation management software group. In 1997, American Software transferred to us substantially all of its Supply Chain Planning division and its WarehousePRO software and substantially all associated operations (including research and development), assets and liabilities. Also in 1997, American Softwares wholly-owned subsidiary, Distribution Sciences, Inc., was merged into Logility, transferring its business, operations, assets and liabilities, including the Transportation Planning and Transportation Management software, to us.
We derive revenues primarily from three sources: software licenses, services, and maintenance. We generally base software license fees on the number of modules, servers, users and/or sites licensed. Services and other revenues consist primarily of fees from software implementation, training, consulting and customization services. Maintenance agreements typically are for a one- to three-year term and usually are entered into at the time of the initial product license. Deferred revenues represent advance payments or billings for software licenses, services and maintenance billed in advance of the time we recognize the related revenues.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
We have based the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations on our financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. The Notes to the Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2003 describe the significant accounting policies that we have used in preparing our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to bad debts, income taxes and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe 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. Our actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe the critical accounting policies listed below affect significant judgments and estimates we use in the preparation of our financial statements.
13
Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, and SOP 98-9, Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions. We recognize license revenues in connection with license agreements for standard proprietary and tailored software upon delivery of the software, provided we deem collection to be probable, the fee is fixed or determinable, there is evidence of an arrangement, and vendor specific objective evidence exists with respect to any undelivered elements of the arrangement. We generally bill maintenance fees annually in advance and recognize the resulting revenues ratably over the term of the maintenance agreement. We derive revenues from services which primarily include consulting, implementation, and training. We bill for these services primarily under time and materials arrangements and recognize fees as we perform the services. Deferred revenues represent advance payments or billings for software licenses, services, and maintenance billed in advance of the time we recognize revenues. We record revenues from sales of third-party products net of royalties, in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent.
Generally, our software products do not require significant modification or customization. Installation of the products is normally routine and is not essential to the functionality of the product. Our sales frequently include maintenance contracts and professional services with the sale of our software licenses. We have established vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value (VSOE) for our maintenance contracts and professional services. We determine fair value based upon the prices we charge to customers when we sell these elements separately. We defer maintenance revenues, including those sold with the initial license fee, based on VSOE, and recognize the revenue ratably over the maintenance contract period. We recognize consulting and training service revenues, including those sold with license fees, as we perform the services based on their established VSOE. We determine the amount of revenue we allocate to the licenses sold with services or maintenance using the residual method of accounting. Under the residual method, we allocate the total value of the arrangement first to the undelivered elements based on their VSOE and allocate the remainder to license fees.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of these customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, we may require additional allowances or we may defer revenue until we determine that collection is probable or we decide to charge off the account. We specifically analyze accounts receivable and historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when we evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Valuation of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, (SFAS No. 144) and Statement No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed (SFAS No. 86), we review the carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets (asset group), including, but not limited to, capitalized computer software development costs, on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. Factors we consider important that could trigger an impairment review include:
| significant under-performance relative to historical or projected future operating results; |
| significant negative industry or economic trends; |
| significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period; |
| significant decline in our technological value as compared to the market; and |
| our market capitalization relative to net book value. |
14
If these circumstances exist, we evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets to determine if impairment exists based upon estimated undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining useful life of the assets and comparing that value to the carrying value of the assets. If the carrying value of the asset is greater than the present value of estimated future cash flows, we write down the asset to the estimated fair value. We determine the estimated fair value of the assets on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in the current business model. In determining expected future cash flows, we group assets at the lowest level for which cash flows are identifiable and independent of cash flows from other asset groups. Our cash flow estimates contain our best estimates, using appropriate and customary assumptions and projections at the time.
Income Taxes. We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their tax bases. We measure deferred tax assets and liabilities using statutory tax rates in effect in the year in which we expect the differences to reverse. We establish a deferred tax asset for the expected future benefit of net operating loss and credit carry-forwards. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS No. 109), Accounting for Income Taxes, we cannot recognize a deferred tax asset for the future benefit of our net operating losses, tax credits and temporary differences unless we can establish that it is more likely than not that we would realize the deferred tax asset. Due to our history of net losses, including a three year cumulative net taxable loss of approximately $1.8 million, we have not recognized a tax asset and have recorded a full valuation allowance against our otherwise recognizable net deferred tax asset, in accordance with SFAS No. 109. Future events could cause us to conclude that it is more likely than not that we will realize a portion of the net deferred tax asset. If we reach such a conclusion, we would reduce the valuation allowance and recognize the net deferred tax asset. We have generated taxable income in fiscal 2003 and fiscal 2002, and if our operating results for fiscal 2004 indicate the generation of additional taxable income, we may reduce the valuation allowance in the third or fourth quarter of fiscal 2004.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2003 AND 2002:
REVENUES:
Our total revenues decreased 4% to approximately $5.2 million from $5.4 million for the comparable quarter a year ago. This decrease was due primarily to decreases in license fee and services and other revenues. International revenues represented approximately 7% of total revenues in the quarter ended October 31, 2003, compared to approximately 12% a year ago, due primarily to lower international license fees in the current quarter. Our international revenues fluctuate substantially from period to period primarily because we derive these revenues from a relatively small number of customers in a given period. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues in the quarters ended October 31, 2003 and October 31, 2002.
LICENSES. Software license fee revenues decreased 8% to approximately $1.2 million from $1.3 million for the same quarter a year ago primarily as a result of continued slow economic conditions. In the three months ended October 31, 2003, the global supply chain market continued to experience reduced capital spending, which adversely affected virtually all industry participants. The direct sales channel provided approximately 82% of license fee revenues for the quarter ended October 31, 2003, compared to approximately 84% in the comparable quarter a year ago. This decrease was due primarily to lower sales volume generated by the direct sales channel. For the quarter ended October 31, 2003, our margins after commissions on direct sales were approximately 83% and our margins after commissions on indirect sales were approximately 91%.
SERVICES AND OTHER. Services and other revenues decreased 8% to approximately $1.3 million from $1.4 million for the same quarter a year ago. This decrease was primarily a result of lower software implementation services related to decreased license fees in recent periods.
MAINTENANCE. Maintenance revenues remained unchanged at $2.7 million compared to the same quarter a year ago. Maintenance revenues have a direct relationship to current and historic license fee revenues, since new licenses are the potential source of new maintenance customers.
GROSS MARGIN:
Total gross margin in the quarter ended October 31, 2003 was $3.0 million, or 59% of total revenues, compared to $3.4 million, or 63%, a year ago. This decrease was due primarily to a reduction in gross margin on license fees. Gross margin on license fees decreased to $161,000, or 14%, for the current quarter compared to $497,000, or 39%, for the same quarter in the prior period, due primarily to higher software amortization expense related to a product release, and to a lesser extent lower license fee revenues. Services and other gross margin decreased to $614,000, compared to $667,000 in the prior year period, in each case representing 48% of total revenues. The dollar amount of services and other gross margin decreased while services and other gross margin percentage remained constant due to the 8% decrease in services and other revenues coupled with the 9% decrease in cost of services and other. Maintenance gross margin was $2.3 million, or 83%, in the current quarter, compared to $2.2 million, or 82%, in the same period one year ago. The increase in maintenance gross margin was due primarily to cost containment efforts.

Gross product research and development costs increased 6% in the quarter ended October 31, 2003 compared to the prior year quarter. Capitalized computer software development costs increased 18% from a year ago, and the rate of capitalized computer software development costs as a percentage of gross product development costs increased to 61% versus 55% a year ago. We typically capitalize higher levels of development costs towards the end of the development phase of a large project. In the quarter ended October 31, 2003, we ended the development phase of Logility Voyager Solutions 7.0, which caused the increase in capitalized development costs during the period. Product development expenses, as a percentage of total revenues, remained constant at 11% compared to the prior year quarter.
SALES AND MARKETING. Sales and marketing expenses decreased 13% from the same period a year ago, to approximately $1.6 million in the quarter ended October 31, 2003, due primarily to cost reduction efforts. As a percentage of total revenues, sales and marketing expenses were 31% for the quarter ended October 31, 2003, compared to 34% for the quarter ended October 31, 2002.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses decreased 20% to approximately $726,000 from $910,000 a year ago, mainly as a result of cost reduction efforts. As a percentage of total revenues, general and administrative expenses were 14% for the quarter ended October 31, 2003, compared to 17% for the quarter ended October 31, 2002. For the three months ended October 31, 2003, we did not incur a provision for doubtful accounts, compared to $45,000 taken in the prior year period. For the three months ended October 31, 2003, the average number of total employees was approximately 126, compared to approximately 125 for the three months ended October 31, 2002.
OTHER INCOME:
Other income is comprised of earnings from the investment of our cash reserves. Our investments are short-term in nature, and all investments mature within one year. Investments consist of money market funds, U.S. Government Securities, A1/P1 rated commercial paper, and minimum A- rated corporate bonds. For the three months ended October 31, 2003, these investments generated an annualized yield of approximately 1.1%, compared to approximately 2.5% for the three months ended October 31, 2002.
19
INCOME TAXES:
We are included in the consolidated federal income tax return filed by American Software, Inc. However, we provide for income taxes as if we were filing a separate income tax return. For the quarter ended October 31, 2003, we did not record any income taxes, as a result of cumulative net operating losses in prior years.
COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2003 AND 2002:
REVENUES:
Our total revenues decreased 6% to approximately $10.5 million from $11.2 million for the comparable period a year ago. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in license fee revenues, and to a lesser extent a decrease in services and other revenues, partially offset by an increase in maintenance revenues. International revenues represented approximately 8% of total revenues in the six months ended October 31, 2003, compared to approximately 11% a year ago, due primarily to lower international license fees in the current period. Our international revenues fluctuate substantially from period to period primarily because we derive these revenues from a relatively small number of customers in a given period. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues for the six months ended October 31, 2003 and the six months ended October 31, 2002.

MAINTENANCE. Maintenance revenues increased 2% to approximately $5.5 million from $5.4 million for the same period a year ago. Maintenance revenues have a direct relationship to current and historic license fee revenues, since new licenses are the potential source of new maintenance customers.
GROSS MARGIN:
Total gross margin in the six months ended October 31, 2003 was $6.3 million, or 60% of total revenues, compared to $6.6 million, or 59%, a year ago. Total gross margin percentage increased while the dollar amount of total gross margin declined due to the 6% decrease in total revenues. Gross margin on license fees decreased to $316,000, or 14%, for the current period compared to $1.3 million, or 42%, for the prior year period, due primarily to lower license fee revenues, and to a lesser extent higher software amortization costs. Services and other gross margin increased to $1.4 million, or 50%, compared to $861,000, or 31%, in the prior year period. This increase was due primarily to cost reduction efforts, partially offset by the decrease in services and other revenues. Maintenance gross
20
margin was $4.6 million, or 84%, in the current period, compared to $4.5 million, or 82%, in the same period one year ago. This increase was due primarily to the increase in maintenance revenues.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
The following table shows information about our cash flows during the six months ended October 31, 2003 and October 31, 2002. This table and the discussion that follows should be read in conjunction with our condensed statements of cash flows contained in Item 1. Financial Statements in Part I of this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2003.

We fund our operations and capital expenditures primarily with cash generated from operating activities. The changes in net cash provided by operating activities generally reflect the changes in net income and non-cash operating items plus the effect of changes in operating assets and liabilities, such as investment securities, trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and deferred revenue.
Our operating activities provided cash of approximately $2.7 million in the six months ended October 31, 2003, and approximately $2.5 million in the same period last year. For the six months ended October 31, 2003, cash provided by operations was composed primarily of a decrease in accounts receivable of $2.7 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $2.1 million, net earnings of $591,000, and an increase in amount due to American Software of $116,000. These were partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities of $1.4 million, a decrease in deferred revenues of $1.3 million, and an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $40,000. For the six months ended October 31, 2002, cash provided by operations was composed primarily of a decrease in accounts in receivable of $2.0 million, and depreciation and amortization expense of $1.9 million. These were partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities of $1.1 million and a decrease in deferred revenues of $722,000.
Cash used in investing activities was approximately $325,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2003. This was composed primarily of purchases of investments of $50.2 million, and additions to capitalized software development costs of $1.7 million. These were partially offset by proceeds from maturities of investments of $51.6 million. Cash
22
provided by investing activities was approximately $2.3 million for the six months ended October 31, 2002. This was composed of the proceeds of maturities of investments of $53.5 million, partially offset by purchases of investments of $49.7 million, and additions to capitalized software development costs of $1.5 million.
Cash used in financing activities was $237,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2003, composed primarily of $317,000 in repurchases of our common stock, partially offset by $80,000 in cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options. For the same period last year, cash used in financing activities of $74,000 was composed of $79,000 used for repurchases of our common stock, partially offset by $5,000 in cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Days Sales Outstanding in accounts receivable were 59 days as of October 31, 2003, compared to 70 days as of October 31, 2002. This decrease was due primarily to lower total revenues in the six months ended October 31, 2003.
Our current ratio on October 31, 2003 was 3.9 to 1 and we have no debt. Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash, cash equivalents and investments, which totaled approximately $27.7 million at October 31, 2003. We believe that our sources of liquidity and capital resources will be sufficient to satisfy our presently anticipated requirements during at least the next twelve months for working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate needs. However, due to the uncertainty in the current economic environment, at some future date we may need to seek additional sources of capital to meet our requirements. If such need arises, we may be required to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing. Neither we nor American Software currently have a bank line of credit. We can provide no assurance that bank lines of credit or other financing will be available on terms acceptable to us. If available, such financing may result in dilution to our shareholders or higher interest expense.
On December 15, 1997, our Board of Directors approved a resolution authorizing us to repurchase up to 350,000 shares of our common stock through open market purchases at prevailing market prices. We completed this repurchase plan in November 1998, at which time we adopted an additional repurchase plan for up to 800,000 shares. In February 2003, our Board of Directors approved a resolution authorizing us to repurchase an additional 400,000 shares for a total authorized repurchase amount of 1,550,000 shares. The timing of any repurchases would depend on market conditions, the market price of Logilitys common stock and managements assessment of our liquidity and cash flow needs. For all repurchase plans, through December 10, 2003, we had purchased a cumulative total of approximately 818,000 shares at a total cost of approximately $5.1 million. In the second quarter of fiscal 2004, we purchased a total of 43,100 shares at a total cost of approximately $188,400, for an average price of $4.37 per share.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations (SFAS 143). SFAS 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. SFAS 143 applies to all entities. SFAS 143 applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development or the normal operation of a long-lived asset, except for certain lease obligations. SFAS 143 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS 143 did not have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
In June 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities (SFAS 146). Under the new rules, an issuer may only recognize a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity when the liability is incurred. Under the previous guidance of EITF No. 94-3, issuers
23
recognized a liability for exit costs at the date of an entitys commitment to an exit plan. SFAS 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of SFAS 146 had no material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123 (SFAS 148). SFAS 148 amends FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, (SFAS 123) to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements. We adopted SFAS 148 for our fiscal year ended April 30, 2003 and the required disclosures are presented in our financial statements.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51 (Interpretation 46). Interpretation 46 addresses the consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities, as defined. Interpretation 46 applied immediately to variable interests in variable interest entities obtained after January 31, 2003. The application of Interpretation 46 had no effect on our financial statements. In addition, for variable interests in variable interest entities obtained before February 1, 2003, consolidation is required for interim periods ending after December 15, 2003. We are evaluating the impact, if any, of this provision of the Interpretation.
In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (SFAS 150). SFAS 150 establishes standards for the classification of liabilities in the financial statements that have characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The adoption of SFAS 150 is not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
Foreign Currency. For the quarter ended October 31, 2003, we generated 7% of our revenues outside the United States. International sales usually are made by our foreign operations or value added resellers, and are denominated typically in U.S. Dollars, British Pounds Sterling, or Euros. However, the expenses that we incur in our foreign operations are denominated in the local currency. The effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on us during the quarter ended October 31, 2003 was not material. We have not engaged in any hedging activities.
Interest rates. We manage our interest rate risk by maintaining an investment portfolio of held-to-maturity instruments with high credit quality and relatively short average maturities. These instruments include, but are not limited to, money-market instruments, bank time deposits, and taxable and tax-advantaged variable rate and fixed rate obligations of corporations, municipalities, and national, state, and local government agencies, in accordance with our investment policy. These instruments are denominated in U.S. Dollars. The fair market value and carrying value of securities held at October 31, 2003 were both approximately $27.6 million.
We also hold cash balances in accounts with commercial banks in the United States and foreign countries. These cash balances represent operating balances only and are invested in short-term time deposits of a local bank. The operating cash balances we hold at banks outside the United States are minor and denominated in the local currency.
Many of our investments carry a degree of interest rate risk. When interest rates fall, our income from investments in variable-rate securities declines. When interest rates rise, the fair market value of our investments in fixed-rate securities declines. Should our liquidity needs force us to sell fixed-rate securities prior to maturity, we may experience a loss of principal. We attempt to limit our exposure to the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations
24
by holding fixed-rate securities to maturity and by limiting our investments to those with relatively short maturities. Accordingly, we believe that fluctuations in interest rates will not have a material affect on our financial condition or results of operations.
