Industry Background

     Effective SCE solutions allow organizations to enhance customer satisfaction and reduce the costs of operating distribution centers and transportation. In the current environment, supplier complexity, customer demands and volumes of transactions continue to increase. Consequently, many companies are required to operate larger, more complex distribution centers, which support multiple distribution methods. In addition, the volume of shipments in most distribution centers has increased tremendously, ranging from large palette shipments to smaller customer-specific shipments. These trends, along with the increased use of the Internet and the rapid growth of e-commerce have increased the relative value propositions of effective and efficient distribution. As a result, many organizations are required to redefine their supply chain, their distribution centers and their transportation networks as well as automate many supply chain processes in order to improve the effectiveness of the supply chain and to improve customer satisfaction and loyalty. In recent years, many businesses have employed technologies to improve the flow of goods and information among supply chain participants, which include manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, retailers and transportation providers. These technologies have helped businesses to reduce warehouse management and transportation costs, reduce inventory levels, improve inventory turnover and, most importantly, improve customer satisfaction. The efficient management of a distribution and logistics network, which consists of factories, distribution centers, hubs and consolidators, now requires collecting and processing increasing amounts of key information in real time. Detailed information on customer orders, inbound shipments of products, products available on-site, product storage locations, weights and sizes, customer- or store-specific shipping requirements, routing data, carrier requirements, order status and any other data needed by carriers is now essential to effective supply chain execution. Manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and transportation providers must continuously exchange this information with other participants in the supply chain in order to effectively manage the flow of goods and associated data flows from the raw materials supplier to the manufacturer to the distributor to the retailer or end consumer. In this increasingly competitive environment, effective SCE technology solutions have become critical to success in order to handle the very sophisticated transportation and distribution services required today, including:

    more frequent customer-specific inventory replenishments;
 
    distribution through multiple delivery channels;
 
    more customized packing of goods within each delivery to reduce in-store unpacking times;
 
    more sophisticated packaging and labeling of goods to meet merchandising strategies;
 
    compliance with unique, customer-specific and industry-specific shipping standards;
 
    the exchange of real-time trading information electronically;
 
    communication with and management of international trading partners;
 
    rate shopping; and
 
    carrier management.

     As a result of these additional demands, distribution centers have increased in size, complexity and cost. Distribution centers today can comprise one million square feet or more with thousands of stock keeping units, or “SKUs,” multi-million dollar investments in automated materials-handling equipment, and software solutions that can manage and provide access to huge amounts of real-time data. The efficient management of a distribution center operation now requires collecting real-time information regarding:

    customer orders and the specific contents in each order;
 
    inbound shipments of products;
 
    products available on-site;

3


Table of Contents

    product storage locations;
 
    weights and sizes;
 
    outbound shipping data including customer- or store-specific shipping requirements, routing data and carrier requirements;
 
    electronic communication with other supply chain participants; and
 
    personalization for direct-to-consumer shipping.

     Within a distribution center, SCE systems must be able to analyze dynamically the information to determine the most efficient use of the distribution center’s labor, materials handling equipment, packaging equipment and shipping, storage and receiving areas. These systems must interface, in real-time, directly with Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) and other host systems to exchange business information. The mission-critical function of SCE systems within a distribution center requires that these systems operate with high reliability and efficiency, while supporting very high transaction volumes and multiple users. Suppliers, manufacturers, distributors and retailers must exchange information in real time with other participants in the supply chain in order to effectively integrate their operations with the extended supply chain. Additionally, front-office Internet business software applications require real-time access to data provided by these SCE systems to provide a dynamic view of a company’s extended supply chain.

     Traditionally, SCE systems have been highly customized, difficult to upgrade and have required costly and lengthy implementations. Furthermore, these systems have not readily supported the increased volumes and complexities associated with recent advances in supply chain re-engineering initiatives. Specifically, they have failed to quickly incorporate dynamic changes to industry- and customer-specific shipping standards. Most legacy distribution center management systems are unable to effectively manage operations in an increasingly multi-channel distribution environment. In addition, legacy distribution center management systems are unable to provide the real-time access to supply chain data to interact with Internet-based supply chain optimization, procurement and commerce applications.

Products and Services

     Products. Our software products are designed to enable our customers to manage the operations of their distribution centers and improve visibility of critical information between supply chain partners to achieve greater effectiveness and efficiency. Our software products operate across the iSeries (AS/400), Unix and Windows computing platforms. Our products operate on multiple hardware platforms utilizing various hardware systems and inter-operate with many third-party software applications and legacy systems. This interfacing and open system capability enables customers to continue using their existing computer resources and to choose among a wide variety of existing and emerging computer hardware and peripheral technologies. We provide interface toolkits for most ERP systems to enhance communication and reduce implementation costs between our core products and our clients’ host systems. We currently offer interface toolkits to systems developed by Oracle, SAP, Lawson, JDA Software, Essentus and Intentia.

     Warehouse Management Systems

     Our warehouse management application suite includes four integrated modules: Warehouse Management, Labor Management, Slotting Optimization and Billing Management.

    Our Warehouse Management application manages all aspects of distribution center operations: receiving, returns processing, inventory management and order fulfillment, including replenishment, picking, packing and shipping. Modular in design, our warehouse management solution is designed to support large transaction volumes and users. The solution delivers benefits such as better control over all distribution center processes, significant improvements in order throughput and inventory accuracy, reduced freight charges, elimination of back-end processes, decreased labor costs and additional overhead reduction. The system also features built-in, industry-specific functionality to support sophisticated value-added programs such as compliant labeling, kitting, assembly, insertion, price ticketing and order personalization.
 
    Our Labor Management application enables distribution center managers to access performance levels in real-time; visualize labor in graphics and spreadsheets; measure productivity against Engineered Labor Standards; and analyze efficiency throughout the warehouse. With this functionality, users can better plan for upcoming labor requirements and improve productivity within the distribution center.
 
    Our Slotting Optimization application determines the most beneficial and ergonomic placement of items in a distribution center. This module, which uses genetic algorithms, is the only pickline optimization system that performs daily maintenance. Easy to implement and configure, it reduces labor costs and workers’ compensation claims and increases throughput. It identifies and solves mismatches between merchandise and slot characteristics, slots family groupings together to reduce travel time, profiles shelving for slow-movers to increase pick density and keeps top-sellers in larger slots closer to the shipping dock to cut down on replenishment and putaway time.

Table of Contents

    Our Billing Management application is a dynamic billing solution that captures information from SCE systems to enable third-party logistics, or 3PL, providers to track and bill clients for inventory handling, storage, fulfillment and transportation activities. 3PL providers can use this module to apply rates to each transaction, minimizing the inability to identify costs and enabling the development of precise contracts for increased billing accuracy. It also provides the billing flexibility that 3PL operators need to address the dynamic needs of their customers by enabling them to modify billing based on variables such as product, order attributes, market focus, number of customers and customer locations. Using the module, 3PL operators can audit these charges and make adjustments prior to creating final invoices, independent of an accounting system.

     Transportation Management Systems

     Our transportation management systems include three modules: Transportation Procurement, Transportation Planning & Execution and Carrier Management.

    Our Transportation Procurement module is a systematic approach to developing, implementing and managing a transportation strategy that takes all the critical business factors into account, such as freight variability, network flows, equipment requirements and transportation provider rates and service levels. It enables shippers to solicit bids from transportation providers, design the most optimal strategic plan for their entire transportation network, acquire transportation service contracts and manage those contracts on an ongoing basis. The system can support global and large-scale strategic network procurement projects with complex business considerations. As an automated, Web-based system, it can also handle tactical transportation procurement and is well suited for procuring single-lane service contracts and capacity for smaller networks.
 
    Our Transportation Planning & Execution module allows shippers to execute complex, strategic routing guides in real time and dynamically monitor critical metrics and events, enabling shippers to make ongoing adjustments to the routing guide that protect service and savings. Actual tendering is automated in accordance with pre-established contractual arrangements to increase productivity, ensure carrier compliance and eliminate high-cost transactions. By analyzing high volumes of shipment information and considering lane-by-lane priorities for level of service and cost, the solution dramatically improves a shipper’s ability to choose the most cost-effective provider, while also complying with the business’ contractual, capacity and service requirements. It can also create an optimal consolidation plan that minimizes transportation costs and best satisfies the shipper’s critical business constraints, including route, mode, required ship date and required receipt date.
 
    Our Carrier Management module is a management and analysis solution that maximizes profits, while solving the most challenging business problems facing transportation providers. Designed for transportation providers, the solution helps optimize decision-making processes, both strategic and day-to-day, resulting in improved profitability and customer service. The solution’s analysis capabilities allow transportation providers to determine the most profitable opportunities and then strategically target the most valuable freight and profitable destinations. It can suggest the best freight solicitation and acceptance decisions, enabling a provider to maintain network balance, increase equipment utilization, raise service levels and maximize profitability.

    The Carrier Management module helps providers make globally optimal resource-to-load assignments on a minute-to-minute basis, dramatically reducing overall empty mileage, while ensuring on-time service and maximizing net contribution per day. In addition, it helps improve driver satisfaction by consistently meeting drivers’ needs and preferences. With its fuel and route optimization capabilities, the solution can help reduce out-of-route miles and achieve an optimal balance between fuel expenditures, driver satisfaction and service delivery requirements. It can proactively identify opportunities for in-transit drivers to swap loads to improve on-time delivery, resource utilization and driver satisfaction.

     Trading Partner Management Systems

     Our trading partner management systems include three integrated modules: Supplier Management, Logistics Hub Management and Store Enablement.

    Our Supplier Management application extends supply chain execution capabilities to vendors and factories through purchase order management and fulfillment and shipping management. The benefits of this automation include greater visibility, improved operational efficiencies at the warehouses and factories as well as increased inventory accuracy, which, in turn, lead to lower inventory costs and improved operational efficiency. This module also helps to bridge the gap between remote factories or those with limited technology capabilities.
 
    Our Logistics Hub Management application extends supply chain execution capabilities to hubs. The module gives hubs and consolidators the ability to manage advance ship notices, or ASNs, associated with incoming receipts as well as create ASNs for outbound shipments. By automating the inbound and outbound processes at the hubs, users can achieve real-time visibility into orders and inventory moving in and out of logistics hubs.
 
    Our Store Enablement application provides order/inventory visibility and Web-based order entry. Through the same portal that provides order visibility, customers can place orders. These orders are then processed by the solution and passed directly to back-end systems. The module also provides customers and stores with the ability to confirm receipts using the same portal provided for order visibility and order entry. At the time of receipt, customers can indicate the exact product received and provide feedback to the supplier as to the quality, timeliness and service level provided.

     Performance Management Systems

     Our performance management systems include three integrated modules: Events, Analysis and Reporting.

    Our Events module leverages its access to global inventory visibility across the supply chain to monitor processes and provide immediate notification of problems or important events, such as giving notification when an important customer’s shipment is delayed. This visibility means companies can address issues earlier when they are easier to resolve and thereby minimizing the impact. The power of the Events module rests in its ability to monitor so many processes simultaneously and its ability to not only recognize events and determine the appropriate response, but also to execute that response automatically.
 
    Our Analysis module provides strategic distribution center activity and trend analysis. It provides extensive multi-dimensional analysis of historical data presented in a flexible, graphical format. The data is obtained directly from the databases of our other solutions. Once the data reaches the Analysis module’s auxiliary database, it organizes and cleanses the data to facilitate multi-dimensional analysis as required.
 
    Our Reporting module provides users with a set of pre-configured, browser-based productivity and management reports. Users have the ability to extend and customize the pre-configured reports, or create their own ad hoc reports utilizing the embedded report-writing tool. This module supports monitoring of distribution center and supply chain functions and operations at a granular level to enable tactical decision-making in real time.

     Professional Services. Our professional services provide our customers with expertise and assistance in planning and implementing our solutions. To ensure a successful product implementation, consultants assist customers with the initial installation of a system, the conversion and transfer of the customer’s historical data onto our system, and ongoing training, education and system upgrades. We believe that our professional services enable the customer to implement our software rapidly, ensure the customer’s success with our solution, strengthen the relationship with the customer, and adds to our industry-specific knowledge base for use in future implementations and product development efforts.

Table of Contents

     Although our professional services are optional, substantially all of our customers use at least some portion of these services for the implementation and ongoing support of our software products. Professional services are typically rendered under time and materials based contracts, with services billed on an hourly basis. Professional services are sometimes rendered under fixed-fee based contracts, but only in instances when we believe the scope of the project is reasonably quantifiable. We believe that increased sales of our software products will drive higher demand for our consulting services. Accordingly, we plan to continue to increase the number of consultants to support anticipated growth in product implementations and software upgrades. We anticipate that our internal growth will be balanced with our success in achieving our strategy of alliances expansion.

     Our professional services group consists of business consultants, systems analysts and technical personnel devoted to assisting customers in all phases of the implementation of our systems, including planning and design, customer-specific configuring of modules, and on-site implementation or conversion from existing systems. Our consulting personnel undergo extensive training on supply chain operations and our products. We believe that this training, together with the ease of implementation of our products, enables us to productively use newly-hired consulting personnel. At times, we use third-party consultants, such as those from major systems integrators, to assist our customers in certain implementations.

     We have developed a proprietary, standardized implementation methodology called PRISM, which leverages our products’ architecture with the knowledge and expertise gained from completing more than 1,300 installations worldwide. The modular design of our products significantly reduces the complexities associated with integrating to existing systems, including ERP, SCM, CRM, e-business systems and complex material handling systems. As a result, we have been able to deploy a fully automated inbound and outbound system in less than two months.

     Customer Support Services and Software Enhancements. We offer a comprehensive program that provides our customers with timely software upgrades that offer additional or improved functionality and technological advances incorporating emerging supply chain and industry initiatives. Over the last three years, our annual renewal rate of customers subscribing to comprehensive support and enhancements has been in excess of 90%. We have the ability to remotely access the customer’s system in order to perform diagnostics, on-line assistance and assist in software upgrades. We offer 24x7 customer support plus software upgrades for an annual fee paid in advance, determined based on the level of service needed by the customer.

     Training. We offer training in a structured environment for new and existing users. Training programs are provided on a per-person, per-class basis at fixed fees. We currently have 13 courses available to provide training on product use, configuration, implementation and system administration. We have also developed several computer-based training programs that can be purchased for a fixed fee for use at client sites.

     Hardware. In conjunction with the licensing of our software, we resell a variety of hardware products developed and manufactured by third parties in order to provide our customers with an integrated supply chain execution solution. These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, bar code printers and scanners, and other peripherals. We resell all third-party hardware products pursuant to agreements with manufacturers or through distributor-authorized reseller agreements pursuant to which we are entitled to purchase hardware products at discount prices and to receive technical support in connection with product installations and any subsequent product malfunctions. We generally purchase hardware from our vendors only after receiving an order from a customer. As a result, we do not maintain significant hardware inventory.

Sales and Marketing

     We employ multiple discipline sales teams that consist of professionals with industry experience in sales and technical sales support. To date, we have generated the majority of our revenue from sales of software through our direct sales force. We plan to continue to invest significantly to expand our sales, services and marketing organizations within the United States, Europe and other international locations and to pursue strategic marketing partnerships. We conduct comprehensive marketing programs that include advertising, public relations, trade shows, joint programs with vendors and consultants and ongoing customer communication programs. The sales cycle typically begins with the generation of a sales lead, through in-house telemarketing efforts, trade shows or other means of referral, or the receipt of a request for proposal from a prospective customer. The sales lead or request for proposal is followed by the qualification of the lead or prospect, an assessment of the customer’s requirements, a formal response to the request for proposal, presentations and product demonstrations, site visits to an existing customer using our supply chain execution system and contract negotiation. The sales cycle can vary substantially from customer to customer, but typically requires three to six months.

     In addition to sales to new customers, we will continue to leverage our existing customer base to provide for system upgrades, sales of additional licenses of purchased products and sales of new or add-on products. We also plan to further develop and expand our indirect sales channels, including sales through reseller agreements, marketing agreements and agreements with third-party logistics providers. To extend our market coverage and to provide us with new business leads and access to trained implementation personnel, we further intend to develop and expand our strategic alliances with systems integrators capable of performing implementations of our solutions. Business referrals and leads helping us to grow our business continue to be positively influenced by systems integrators, which include most of the large consulting firms and other systems consulting firms specializing in our targeted industries. We believe that our leadership position in providing SCE solutions perpetuates the willingness of systems integrators to recommend our solutions where appropriate.

     During 2000, we formalized a program intended to foster joint sales and marketing efforts with our business partners. In some cases, this included joint development work to make our products and our partner’s products interface seamlessly. Among others, partnerships arising from our Manhattan Associates Partner Program (MAP2) include:

    JDA Software Group, Inc., a leading global provider of integrated software and professional services to retailers and their suppliers;
 
    Intentia International AB, a leading global supplier of ERP solutions;
 
    ProClarity Corporation (formerly Knosys, Inc.), a provider of analytic front-end technology designed specifically for Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services; and
 
    Siemens Dematic, a world leader, providing system solutions from concept through implementation in manufacturing, automotive, distribution, parcel and freight, postal, air cargo, baggage handling and software applications.

Product Development

     Our development efforts are focused on adding new functionality to existing products, enhancing the operability of our products across distributed and alternative hardware platforms, operating systems and database systems and developing new products. We believe that our future success depends in part upon our ability to continue to enhance existing products, to respond to dynamically changing customer requirements and to develop new or enhanced products that incorporate new technological developments and emerging supply chain and industry standards. To that end, our development efforts frequently focus on base system enhancements and the incorporation into our products of new user requirements and features identified and created through customer and industry interactions and systems implementations. As a result, we are able to continue to offer our customers a packaged, highly configurable product with increasing functionality rather than a custom-developed software program. We have also developed interface toolkits for most major ERP systems to enhance communication and improve data flows between our core products and our clients’ host systems.

     We plan to principally conduct our development efforts internally in order to retain development knowledge and promote the continuity of programming standards; however, some projects that can be performed separately and/or require special skills may be outsourced. In 2001 and 2002, we used a third-party research and development company to localize our products into Japanese, German, French and Spanish. We also established an off-shore development center (ODC) in Bangalore, India during 2002. The ODC employs several Indian citizens currently working for and holding extensive development experience with us.

     We continue to devote a significant portion of our research and development efforts to the enhancement and integration of all of our product suites. We have developed a synchronized release program for all products, which will provide our customers with updates to all our products simultaneously. Our product development efforts will principally be focused on enhancement of our transportation management solution, enhanced integration of the transportation products with our other product suites, enhancement of our warehouse management solutions and continued localization of our products into various international markets.

     Our research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002 were $16.1 million, $19.4 million, and $20.8 million, respectively. We intend to continue to invest significantly in product development.

Competition

     Our products are targeted at the SCE market, which is highly fragmented, intensely competitive and characterized by rapid technological change. The principal competitive factors affecting the market for our products include:

    vendor and product reputation;
 
    compliance with industry standards;
 
    product architecture, functionality and features;
 
    ease and speed of implementation;
 
    return on investment;
 
    product quality, price and performance; and
 
    level of support.

     We believe that we compete favorably with respect to each of these factors. Our competitors are diverse and offer a variety of solutions directed at various aspects of the extended supply chain, as well as the enterprise as a whole. Our existing competitors include:

12


Table of Contents

    the corporate information technology departments of current or potential customers capable of internally developing solutions;
 
    supply chain execution vendors, including Catalyst International, Inc., EXE Technologies, Inc., HighJump Software, Logistics & Internet Systems Limited, RedPrairie Corporation, Optum, Inc. and Provia Software, Inc. among others;
 
    ERP or Supply Chain Management (“SCM”) application vendors with products or modules of their product suite offering varying degrees of SCE functionality, such as Retek, Inc., J.D. Edwards & Company or SAP AG; and
 
    smaller independent companies that have developed or are attempting to develop distribution center management software that competes with our SCE solutions.

     We may face competition in the future from ERP and SCM applications vendors and business application software vendors that may broaden their product offerings by internally developing or by acquiring or partnering with independent developers of supply chain execution software. To the extent such ERP and SCM vendors develop or acquire systems with functionality comparable or superior to our products, their significant installed customer bases, long-standing customer relationships and ability to offer a broad solution could provide a significant competitive advantage over our products. In addition, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among current and new competitors may emerge and rapidly gain significant market share. Increased competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced gross margins and loss of market share. Both Oracle and SAP have announced plans to enter the market for SCM applications. We believe that the domain expertise required to compete provides us with a competitive advantage and is a significant barrier to market entry. However, some of our competitors have significant resources at their disposal, and the degree to which we will compete with these new products in the marketplace is still undetermined.

     Many of our competitors and potential competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources, greater name recognition and a larger installed base of customers than we do. In order to be successful in the future, we must continue to respond promptly and effectively to technological change and competitors’ innovations. We cannot assure you that our current or potential competitors will not develop products comparable or superior in terms of price and performance features to those developed by us. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will not be required to make substantial additional investments in connection with our research, development, marketing, sales and customer service efforts in order to meet any competitive threat, or that we will be able to compete successfully in the future. Increased competition may result in reductions in market share, pressure for price reductions and related reductions in gross margins, any of which could materially and adversely affect our ability to achieve our financial and business goals. We cannot give assurance that in the future we will be able to successfully compete against current and future competitors.

International Operations

     Our international revenue was approximately $15.1 million, $26.6 million and $33.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively, which represents approximately 11%, 17% and 19% of our total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. International revenue includes all revenue derived from sales to customers outside the United States. We now have over 150 employees outside the United States, most of whom are located in the United Kingdom and India. We recently installed our product in Asia and also began marketing our solutions in Australia, Latin America and the Pacific Rim.

     We conduct our direct European operations principally out of an office in the United Kingdom, consisting of approximately 115 employees. We recently signed a multi-year agreement to occupy a facility in Utrecht, The Netherlands to accommodate our planned growth in continental Europe. Total revenue for European operations was approximately $10.5 million, $22.2 million and $29.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively, which represents approximately 8%, 14% and 17% of our total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively.

Proprietary Rights

     We rely on a combination of copyright, trade secret, trademark, service mark and trade dress laws, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary rights in our products and technology. We have a registered trademarks for SLOT-IT, Have/Needs Analysis, PTRS, PkMS PickTicket Management System, LogisticsPRO and the Manhattan Associates logo as a design mark. We have pending federal trademark applications for infolink Source, PkAllocate, PkCost, X-SCE, WorkInfo, infolink Order, PkMS Pronto, SlotInfo, SmartInfo, E-Fulfillnow, SystemLink, Driving the New E-Supply Chain, infolink and BizLink. We have no registered copyrights. We generally enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, clients and potential clients and limit access to, and distribution of, our proprietary information. We license our products to our customers and restrict the customer’s use for internal purposes without the right to sublicense the products. However, we believe that this provides us only limited protection. Despite our efforts to safeguard and maintain our proprietary rights both in the United States and abroad, we cannot assure you that we will successfully deter misappropriation or independent third-party development of our technology or prevent an unauthorized third party from copying or obtaining and using our products or technology. In addition, policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and while we are unable to determine the extent to which piracy of our software products exist, software piracy could become a problem.

     As the number of supply chain management applications in the industry increases and the functionality of these products further overlaps, companies that develop software may increasingly become subject to claims of infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights. Third parties may assert infringement or misappropriation claims against us in the future for current or future products. Any claims or litigation, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, divert management’s attention and cause product shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing arrangements. Any royalty or licensing arrangements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Adverse determinations in such claims or litigation could also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

     We may be subject to additional risks as we enter into transactions in countries where intellectual property laws are not well developed or are poorly enforced. Legal protections of our rights may be ineffective in such countries. Litigation to defend and enforce our intellectual property rights could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, regardless of the final outcome of such litigation. Despite our efforts to safeguard and maintain our proprietary rights both in the United States and abroad, we cannot assure that we will be successful in doing so, or that the steps taken by us in this regard will be adequate to deter misappropriation or independent third party development of our technology or to prevent an unauthorized third party from copying or otherwise obtaining and using our products or technology. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Employees

     As of December 31, 2002, we had 955 full-time employees. None of our employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We consider our relations with our employees to be good. As of December 31, 2002, certain of our employees were employed pursuant to the H-1(B), non-immigrant work-permitted visa classification.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

     All statements, trend analyses and other information contained in the following discussion relative to markets for our products and trends in revenue, gross margins and anticipated expense levels, as well as other statements including words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “expect,” and “intend” and other similar expressions constitute forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to business and economic risks and uncertainties, and our actual results of operations may differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

Overview

     We are a leading global provider of technology-based solutions to improve the effectiveness of and the efficiencies within and across the supply chain. Our solutions, which consist of software, services and hardware, enhance distribution and transportation efficiencies through the real-time integration of supply chain constituents, including manufacturers, distributors, retailers, suppliers, transportation providers and consumers. Our software provides solutions for the four principal elements of supply chain execution, or SCE: warehouse management; transportation management; trading partner management; and performance management. Warehouse management solutions include the performance of the many processes that take place in the warehouse and distribution center, beginning with the placement of an order by a customer and ending with the order fulfillment process. Transportation management solutions include functionality that allows a company to optimally procure, plan and execute transportation services, including the delivery of the order to the end customer. Trading partner management solutions provide real-time synchronization of key processes and their associated information flows across the supply chain, including customer process synchronization, supplier process management, global inventory visibility and supply chain event management. Performance management solutions use analytic tools that allow distribution center managers to monitor events within the supply chain cycle, analyze historical data and generate reports. We also provide services, including design, configuration, implementation and training services, plus customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

     The consolidated financial statements include accounts of the Company and all subsidiaries. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related footnotes. In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. We do not believe there is a great likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported related to the accounting policies described below. However, application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Revenues and Revenue Recognition

     Revenue recognition rules for software companies are very complex. Although we follow very specific and detailed guidelines in measuring revenue, certain judgments affect the application of our revenue recognition policy. The complexity of the revenue recognition rules and estimates inherent in the revenue recognition process makes revenue results difficult to predict, and any shortfall in revenue or delay in recognizing revenue could cause our operating results to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and could result in future operating losses.

     Our revenues consist of fees from the licensing of software; fees from consulting, implementation and training services (collectively, “professional services”), plus customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions; and sales of hardware.

     We recognize software fees in accordance with Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP 97-2”), as amended by Statement of Position No. 98-9, “Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions” (“SOP 98-9”). Under SOP 97-2, we recognize software license revenue when the following criteria are met: (1) a signed contract is obtained; (2) delivery of the product has occurred; (3) the license fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectibility is probable. SOP 98-9 requires recognition of revenue using the “residual method” when (1) there is vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair values of all undelivered elements in a multiple-element arrangement that is not accounted for using long-term contract accounting; (2) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value does not exist for one or more of the delivered elements in the arrangement; and (3) all revenue-recognition criteria in SOP 97-2 other than the requirement for vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair value of each delivered element of the arrangement are satisfied. For those contracts that

20


Table of Contents

contain significant customization or modifications, license revenue is recognized under the percentage of completion method.

     Fees from professional services performed by us are generally billed on an hourly basis, and revenue is recognized as the services are performed. From time to time, we will enter into professional services agreements in which billings are limited to contractual maximums or based upon a fixed-fee for portions of or all of the engagement. Revenue related to fixed-fee based contracts is recognized on a percent complete basis based on the hours incurred. Project losses are provided for in their entirety in the period in which they become known. Fees from customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions are generally paid in advance and recognized as revenue ratably over the term of the agreement, typically 12 months.

     Hardware revenue is generated from the resale of a variety of hardware products, developed and manufactured by third parties, which are integrated with and complementary to our software solutions. These products include computer equipment, radio frequency terminal networks, bar code printers and scanners and other peripherals. We generally purchase hardware from our vendors only after receiving an order from a customer, and revenue is recognized upon shipment by the vendor to the customer.

Accounts Receivable

     We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain a provision for estimated credit losses based upon our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. Our top five customers in aggregate accounted for 22%, 21% and 16% of total revenue for each of the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001, and 2002, respectively. Sales to one customer (“the significant customer”) accounted for approximately 10% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2001. Most of the revenue from the significant customer in 2001 arose from purchases of hardware. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of revenue in 2000 or 2002. Accounts receivable from the significant customer on December 31, 2001 was approximately $4.3 million.

     On January 22, 2002, the significant customer for 2001 filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the filing, the uncertainties around the bankruptcy proceedings and the ultimate timing of payment, we recorded an allowance of $4.3 million in 2001 to effectively defer revenues arising in the fourth quarter of 2001 from the significant customer, but unpaid at the time of the bankruptcy declaration. The allowance included approximately $2.3 million of software fees, $1.6 million of fees for professional services and $0.4 million of hardware. In September 2002, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division authorized the significant customer’s request to assume the software license, services, support and enhancement agreement. With the appeals process completed in October 2002, we recovered approximately $2.3 million during the fourth quarter of 2002.

Valuation of long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill

     Our business acquisitions have resulted in, and future acquisitions typically will result in, the recording of goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired, as well as capitalized technology and other definite-lived intangible assets.

21


Table of Contents

     In 2002, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” became effective and as a result, we ceased amortizing goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives. In lieu of amortization, we perform annual impairment reviews. We completed the initial impairment review of our goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives on June 30, 2002 as required by SFAS No. 142 and no impairment losses were recognized. Additionally, we performed our periodic review of our goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment as of December 31, 2002, and did not identify any asset impairment as a result of the review. We will continue to test for impairment on an annual basis as of December 31, or on an interim basis if circumstances change that would indicate the possibility of an impairment. The impairment review requires an analysis of future projections and assumptions about the Company’s operating performance. Should such review indicate the assets are impaired, we would record an expense for the impaired assets.

     In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.” This new Statement also supercedes certain aspects of APB 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual, and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions,” with regard to reporting the effects of a disposal of a segment of a business. SFAS No. 144 requires that we evaluate long-lived assets based on the net future cash flow expected to be generated from the asset on an undiscounted basis whenever significant events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In addition, SFAS No. 144 will require expected future operating losses from discontinued operations to be reported as discontinued operations in the period incurred (rather than as of the measurement date as presently required by APB 30). In addition, more dispositions may qualify for discontinued operations treatment. The provisions of this Statement are required to be applied for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this Statement did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Acquisitions

     On October 24, 2000, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Intepra, L.L.C. (“Intepra”) for a purchase price of approximately $31.0 million. Intepra was a provider of warehouse management and transportation management solutions. We completed the acquisition to enhance our product offering and to expand our customer base. The purchase price consisted of a cash payment of $13.0 million, the issuance of approximately $10.0 million of our $.01 par value per share common stock (totaling 236,957 shares), and the issuance by us of a promissory note for $7.0 million. We also incurred approximately $0.9 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition. The purchase price included the assumption of substantially all of the liabilities of Intepra, including immediate payment by us of the remaining $2.0 million of principal and up to $15,000 of interest on a promissory note previously issued by Intepra. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Based on an independent appraisal, the purchase price was allocated to net liabilities assumed of $2.6 million, acquired in-process research and development of $2.4 million, acquired developed technology of $7.5 million, and other intangible assets of $23.5 million. Values assigned to the acquired in-process research and development (“IPRD”) were determined using the income approach. To determine the value of the IPRD, we considered, among other factors, the state of development of each project, the time and costs required to complete each project, expected income and associated risks, which included the inherent difficulties and uncertainties in completing the project and achieving technological feasibility and risks related to the viability of and potential changes in future target markets. This analysis resulted in amounts assigned to IPRD for projects that had not yet reached technological feasibility and do not have alternative future uses. Acquired developed technology is being amortized over the greater of the amount computed using (a) the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product or (b) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product including the period being reported on. Approximately $1.3 million of other intangible assets are being amortized over a seven-year useful life. The remaining $22.2 million of goodwill was amortized until December 31, 2001, which resulted in accumulated amortization expense of approximately $3.7 million. Effective January 1, 2002, the other indefinite-lived intangible assets are no longer being amortized, but are being reviewed for impairment on at least an annual basis.

     On December 31, 2002, we acquired certain assets of Logistics.com, Inc. from Internet Capital Group for a cash payment of approximately $21.2 million. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Based on an independent appraisal, the purchase price has been allocated to net assets assumed of $0.7 million, acquired in-process research and development of $1.5 million, acquired developed technology of $1.5 million, and other intangible assets of $17.5 million. Values assigned to the acquired in-process research and development (“IPRD”) were determined using the income approach. To determine the value of the IPRD, we considered, among other factors, the state of development of each project, the time and costs required to complete each project, expected income and associated risks, which included the inherent difficulties and uncertainties in completing the project and achieving technological feasibility and risks related to the viability of and potential changes in future target markets. This analysis resulted in amounts assigned to IPRD for projects that had not yet reach technological feasibility and do not have alternative future uses. Acquired developed technology is being amortized over the greater of the amount computed using (a) the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product or (b) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product including the period being reported on. Approximately $2.9 million and $0.4 million of the other intangible assets are being amortized over seven-year and two-year useful lives, respectively. The remaining $14.2 million of goodwill and other intangible assets will not be amortized, but will be reviewed for impairment on an annual basis. The allocation of purchase price is based on preliminary estimates of the fair value and the estimated useful life of the acquired assets and is subject to revision based upon the finalization of management’s assessment of the fair value and estimated useful life of the acquired net assets, particularly intangible assets. Changes in the allocation of purchase price will be limited to changes to the estimated useful lives of other identified intangible assets, possibly resulting in a change in the allocation between indefinite-lived assets, which are not amortized, but rather are tested for impairment, and definite-lived assets, which are amortized over their useful lives.

Revenue

     Our revenue consists of fees generated from the licensing of software; fees from professional services, customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions; and sales of complementary radio frequency and computer equipment, which are considered non-strategic. Total revenue increased 12.8% from $138.6 million in 2000 to $156.4 million in 2001, reflecting an overall growth in demand for our SCE solutions. Total revenue increased 12.4% from $156.4 million in 2001 to $175.7 million in 2002, reflecting continued growth in fees from licensing software and professional services partially offset by an 18.3% decline in non-strategic hardware sales. We believe our revenue growth in 2002 is attributable to several factors, including, among others, geographic expansion, our market leadership positions as to breadth of product offerings and financial stability and a compelling return on investment proposition for our customers. In spite of the increase in software fees and services revenue over the prior year, we have continued to experience effects from the deterioration of the United States’ and European economies in the form of delayed and cancelled buying decisions by customers for our software, services and hardware, deferrals by customers of service engagements previously scheduled and pressure by our customers and competitors to discount our offerings. We believe that prolonged continuation of or further deterioration in the current macro-economic conditions and business climates within the United States and/or other geographic regions in which we operate, principally the United Kingdom and continental Europe, could have a material adverse impact on our operations. There remains much uncertainty as to whether the macro-economic and business environmental conditions will further deteriorate or improve in the near future, making forecasting difficult.

     Software Fees. Software fees increased from $26.2 million in 2000 to $35.4 million in 2001, an increase of $9.2 million or 35.3%. Software fees increased from $35.4 million in 2001 to $40.2 million in 2002, an increase of $4.8 million or 13.5%. The increases in software fees were principally due to increases in: (i) sales of software licenses outside of the United States, which accounted for approximately 13%, 22% and 20% of software fees in 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively; and (ii) sales of new products, including our lower cost Warehouse Management product, Trading Partner Management products, Performance Management products, and the Billing Management module, all of which collectively accounted for approximately 2.5%, 11.0% and 18.7% of software fees in 2000,

23


Table of Contents

2001 and 2002, respectively. Additionally, we have experienced an increase in sales of our warehouse management systems, our flagship product, due to growing market acceptance for warehouse management systems and increased product functionality. Also see the discussion below regarding Recovery (allowance) relating to Bankrupt Customer.

     Services. Services revenue increased from $81.1 million in 2000 to $97.5 million in 2001, an increase of $16.4 million or 20.2%. Services revenue increased from $97.5 million in 2001 to $110.5 million in 2002, an increase of $13.0 million or 13.3%. The increases in services revenue were principally due to: (i) increases in engagements required to implement the increased amount of software sold and to upgrade existing customers to more current versions of our offerings; (ii) renewals of customer support services and software enhancement subscription agreements on a growing installed base; and (iii) greater average billing rates as a result of an increase in the percentage of billed time by more experienced services personnel. During the economic downturn, we have experienced some pricing pressures with regard to our services. We believe that the pricing pressures are attributable to global macro-economic conditions and competitive pressures. Also see the discussion below regarding Recovery (allowance) relating to Bankrupt Customer.

     Hardware and other. Hardware and other revenue decreased from $31.3 million in 2000 to $27.8 million in 2001, a decrease of $3.5 million or 11.4%. Hardware and other revenue decreased from $27.8 million in 2001 to $22.7 million in 2002, a decrease of $5.1 million or 18.3%. Sales of hardware are non-strategic and largely dependent upon customer-specific desires. Sales of hardware decreased $3.2 million, or 12.3%, from approximately $25.8 million in 2000 to approximately $22.7 million in 2001. Sales of hardware decreased $5.4 million, or 23.7%, from approximately $22.7 million in 2001 to approximately $17.3 million in 2002. The decreases in hardware sales during 2001 and 2002 are attributable to customers’ desires in the current macro-economic environment to buy hardware from other suppliers offering greater discounts, combined with increased sales of our Optimize Suite of products, which require less hardware than PkMS, and increased sales of software licenses outside of the United States where customers have historically not bought hardware from us. As described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses are required to be classified as revenue and are included in hardware and other revenue. For 2000, 2001 and 2002, reimbursements by customers for out-of-pocket expenses were approximately $5.5 million, $5.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively.

     Recovery (allowance) relating to Bankrupt Customer. On January 22, 2002, a significant customer for 2001 filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the filing, the uncertainties around the bankruptcy proceedings and the ultimate timing of payment, we recorded an allowance of $4.3 million in 2001 to effectively defer revenues arising in the fourth quarter of 2001 from the significant customer, but unpaid at the time of the bankruptcy declaration. The allowance included approximately $2.3 million of software fees, $1.6 million of fees for professional services and $0.4 million of hardware. In September 2002, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division authorized the significant customer’s request to assume the software license, services, support and enhancement agreement. With the appeals process completed in October 2002, we recovered approximately $2.3 million of the allowance during the fourth quarter of 2002.

Costs and Expenses

     Cost of Software Fees. Cost of software fees consists of the costs associated with software reproduction and delivery; media, packaging, documentation and other related costs; royalties on third-party software sold with or as part of our products; and the amortization of research and development costs capitalized. Cost of software fees was $1.2 million, $1.5 million and $1.9 million, which represents 4.7%, 4.1% and 4.8% of software fees for 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively.

     Cost of Services. Cost of services consists primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of employees dedicated to professional services and customer support services. Cost of services increased from $34.3 million in 2000, or 42.3% of services revenue, to $42.4 million in 2001, or 43.5% of services revenue, to $46.6 million in 2002, or 42.2% of services revenue. The increases in cost of services were directly related to increases in the number of employees and contracted personnel dedicated to the delivery of professional services. The slight increase in cost of services as a percent of services revenue in 2001 was attributable to additional costs associated with our growing international business, including the temporary use of U.S. and contracted personnel on international engagements and the costs to hire and train our

24


Table of Contents

growing international services organization, coupled with market pricing pressures in a slower economy.

     Cost of Hardware and other. Cost of hardware and other decreased from $26.3 million in 2000, or 84.1% of hardware revenue, to $23.1 million in 2001, or 83.2% of hardware revenue, and to $19.0 million in 2002, or 83.9% of hardware revenue. The decreases in cost of hardware and other are directly related to the amount of hardware sold. Cost of hardware as a percentage of hardware sales fluctuates depending upon the type of equipment sold and the discount we are willing to provide. Cost of hardware and other includes out-of-pocket expenses to be reimbursed by customers of approximately $5.5 million, $5.1 million and $5.4 million for 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively.

     Research and Development. Research and development expenses primarily consist of salaries and other personnel-related costs of personnel involved in our product development efforts. Our research and development expenses increased from $16.1 million in 2000, or 11.6% of total revenue, to $19.4 million in 2001, or 12.4% of total revenue, to $20.8 million in 2002, or 11.8% of total revenue. The increases in research and development expenses are principally attributable to a greater number of employees and contracted personnel dedicated to the development and enhancement of our products, annual compensation increases and the initial start up costs associated with our offshore development center in India during 2002. Our principal research and development activities in 2002 focused on the enhancement of all existing product lines with additional functionality. See further discussion on research and development in Item 1. Business and in Exhibit 99.1. Computer software development costs are charged to research and development expense until technological feasibility is established, after which remaining software production costs are capitalized. We have defined technological feasibility as the point in time at which the Company has a detailed program design on a working model of the related product, depending upon the type of development effort. For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2002, the Company capitalized no research and development costs because the costs between the attainment of technological feasibility for the related software product through the date of general release were insignificant. During 2001, we made payments of approximately $717,000 to an outside research and development organization to internationalize PkMS into Japanese, German, French and Spanish. These payments have been capitalized as Other Assets and are being amortized over a three-year period.

     Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses include salaries, commissions, travel and other personnel-related costs of sales and marketing personnel and the costs of our marketing programs and related activities. Sales and marketing expenses increased from $18.1 million in 2000, or 13.0% of total revenue, to $22.3 million in 2001, or 14.3% of total revenue, to $26.4 million in 2002, or 15.0% of total revenue. The increases in sales and marketing expenses, as a percent of revenues and in absolute dollars, are principally attributable to: (i) growth in the number of international and domestic sales and marketing personnel; (ii) greater incentive compensation paid on greater level of sales; and (iii) continued expansion of our sales and marketing programs around our SCE offerings. The increases in sales and marketing expenses as a percent of total revenue were principally attributable to increases in expenditures to staff, brand and launch newly developed and acquired products.

     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related costs of executive, financial, human resources and administrative personnel, as well as facilities, depreciation and amortization of tangible assets, legal, insurance, accounting and other administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased from $15.1 million in 2000, or 10.9% of total revenue, to $18.8 million in 2001, or 12.0% of total revenue, to $20.9 million in 2002, or 11.9% of total revenue. The increases in general and administrative expenses were principally attributable to increased depreciation and amortization expense, executive compensation and administrative costs and personnel needed to grow our business and improve our infrastructure. We were able to leverage our infrastructure substantially in 2000 with the growth in our business. Growth within our international operations, representing 19% of revenues in 2002, as compared to 17% and 11% of revenues in 2001 and 2000, respectively, required additional investments in infrastructure in 2001 and 2002. Depreciation expense included in general and administrative expenses was $4.3 million, $5.7 million and $6.3 million during 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively.

     In-Process Research and Development and Acquisition-Related Charges. On October 24, 2000, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Intrepa, L.L.C. (“Intrepa”) for a purchase price of approximately $31.0 million. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Based on an independent appraisal, the purchase price was allocated to net liabilities assumed of $2.6 million, acquired in-process research and development of $2.4 million, acquired developed technology of $7.5 million, and other intangible assets of $23.3 million. In connection with this acquisition, we realigned our resources, which resulted in severance-related expenses of $576,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2000.

     On December 31, 2002, we acquired certain assets of Logistics.com, Inc. from Internet Capital Group for a one-time cash payment of approximately $21.2 million. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Based on an independent

appraisal, the purchase price has been allocated to net assets assumed of $0.7 million, acquired in-process research and development of $1.5 million, acquired developed technology of $1.5 million, and other intangible assets of $17.5 million.

     Amortization of Acquisition-Related Intangibles. We have recorded goodwill and other intangible assets as part of the purchase accounting associated with three acquisitions: (i) the acquisition of Performance Analysis Corporation in February 1998; (ii) the acquisition of certain assets of Kurt Salmon Associates in October 1998; and (iii) the acquisition of Intrepa in October 2000. Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles increased from $1.2 million in 2000, or 0.9% of total revenue, to $5.2 million in 2001, or 3.3% of total revenue, and decreased to $1.8 million in 2002, or 1.0% of total revenue. The increase in 2001 was attributable to amortization expense of $4.9 million in 2001 associated with the acquisition of Intrepa. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (SFAS 142). SFAS 142 requires that goodwill and certain intangible assets, including those recorded in past business combinations and existing as of June 30, 2001, no longer be amortized to earnings, but instead be tested for impairment at least annually. The decrease in amortization expense from 2001 to 2002 was the direct result of the adoption of SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002.

     Operating Income. Operating income increased from $23.3 million in 2000, or 16.8% of total revenue, to $23.7 million in 2001, or 15.1% of total revenue, to $36.8 million in 2002, or 20.9% of total revenue. The increases in operating income represent a combination of growth in higher margin software and services fees and improved efficiencies across all areas of our business. Operating income for 2000 reflects charges for in-process research and development and severance-related expenses totaling $3.0 million associated with the acquisition of Intrepa and non-cash, acquisition-related intangible asset amortization totaling $1.2 million. Operating income for 2001 reflects an allowance for a bankrupt customer totaling $4.3 million and non-cash, acquisition-related intangible asset amortization totaling $5.2 million. Operating income for 2002 reflects a recovery relating to the bankrupt customer totaling $2.3 million; a charge for in-process research and development totaling $1.5 million associated with the acquisition of Logistics.com and non-cash, acquisition-related intangible asset amortization totaling $1.8 million, all as discussed above. Excluding these items, non-GAAP operating income would be $27.5 million, or 19.8% of total revenues, in 2000, $33.2 million, or 20.7% of total revenues, in 2001 and $37.7 million, or 21.8% of total revenues, in 2002. See reconciliation of non-GAAP operating income included at the end of this section.

     Interest Income and Interest Expense. Interest income decreased from $3.1 million in 2000, or 2.3% of total revenue, to $2.7 million in 2001, or 1.7% of total revenue, and decreased to $2.1 million in 2002, or 1.2% of total revenue. The decrease in interest income in 2001 and 2002 was due to an overall decline in market interest rates. Interest expense increased from $284,000 in 2000 to $586,000 in 2001, and decreased to $147,000 in 2002. The increase in interest expense in 2001 was attributable to the note payable to Intrepa, which was outstanding for twelve months in 2001 compared to two months in 2000. The decrease in interest expense in 2002 was attributable to the $5.3 million note payable to Intrepa being prepaid in full in April 2002.

     Other Income (Expense), Net. Other income (expense), net, principally includes foreign exchange gains and losses. Other income (expense), net, increased from a net expense of $123,000 in 2000 to a net expense of $44,000 in 2001 and increased to a net gain of $850,000 in 2002. The increase in other income, net, in 2002 was due to foreign currency gains recognized, which resulted from the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to other foreign currencies, primarily the British Pound and Euro.

Income Taxes

     Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes was $9.7 million in 2000, compared to $9.5 million in 2001, and $14.4 million in 2002. The slight decrease in the provision for income taxes for 2001 is attributable to an increase in income generated in countries with lower tax rates. The increase in the provision for income taxes for 2002 is attributable to the increase in income before income taxes in 2002. Our effective income tax rates were 37.5%, 37.0% and 36.3% in 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Our effective income tax rate takes into account the source of taxable income, domestically by state and internationally by country, and available income tax credits. The slight decrease in the tax rate in 2001 is attributable to an increase in income generated in countries with lower tax rates. The decrease in the tax rate in 2002 is attributable to an increase in income generated in countries with lower tax rates along with an increase in research and development credits. The provisions for income taxes for 2000, 2001 and 2002 do not include the $13.5 million, $9.0 million and $14.0 million of tax benefits realized from stock options exercised during the years, respectively. These tax benefits reduce our income tax liabilities and are included in additional paid-in capital.

Earnings per Share

     Net Income per Share. Net income was $16.3 million, or 11.7% of total revenue and $0.53 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2000. Net income was $16.2 million, or 10.3% of total revenue and $0.53 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2001. Net income was $25.2 million, or 14.3% of total revenue and $0.83 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2002. Excluding the effect of the in-process research and development and acquisition-related charges, adjustments relating to the bankrupt customer and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, non-GAAP net income for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002 was $18.9 million, $22.2 million and $25.8 million, respectively. This represents 13.6%, 13.8% and 14.9% of total revenues, or $0.62, $0.72 and $0.85 per diluted share for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. See reconciliation of non-GAAP net income included at the end of this section.

Adjusted Results of Operations

     The following summary of adjusted consolidated selected statement of income data presents our non-GAAP results of operations for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002, excluding: amortization of acquisition-related intangibles; the write-off of in-process research and development and other acquisition-related charges associated with the acquisitions of Intrepa and Logistics.com; and the recovery and allowance for a significant bankrupt customer. We believe the exclusion of these items provide stockholders and potential investors a relevant summary of the results of our operations as they relate to our ongoing core business, and we use these measures internally to evaluate our operating performance. This information is not to be construed as a measurement of profitability under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and is not to be accepted or used as an alternative to net income. Additionally, the adjusted results of operations, as presented, may not be consistent with measures used by other companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     During 2001 and 2002, we have funded our operations primarily through cash generated from operations. As of December 31, 2001, we had $104.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments compared to $121.9 million at December 31, 2002.

29


Table of Contents

     Our operating activities provided cash of $36.4 million in 2000, $39.4 million in 2001 and $46.0 million in 2002. During 2001, cash from operating activities arose principally from operating income, improved payments on accounts by customers, an accelerated refund of income taxes and substantial income tax benefits arising from exercises of stock options by employees. Days sales outstanding declined from 69 days at December 31, 2000 to 58 days at December 31, 2001. Cash from operating activities for 2002 arose principally from a substantial increase in operating income, the substantial income tax benefits arising from exercises of stock options by employees, partially off-set by the increase in accounts receivable. Days sales outstanding increased from 58 days at December 31, 2001 to 65 days at December 31, 2002. Days sales outstanding as of December 31, 2001 was positively impacted by an unusually large hardware sale in the fourth quarter of 2001, which was collected prior to December 31, 2001.

     Our investing activities used approximately $14.3 million, $10.3 million and $64.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. During 2001, our principal uses of cash were $6.1 million for purchases of capital equipment and net purchases of $3.5 million in short-term investments. During 2002, our principal uses of cash were $21.2 million for the acquisition of Logistics.com, $6.0 million for purchases of capital equipment to support our business and infrastructure and net purchases of $37.1 million in short-term investments.

     Our financing activities provided approximately $9.1 million in 2000 and $3.9 million in 2001 and used approximately $0.9 million in 2002. The principal sources and uses of cash from financing activities for 2001 and 2002 were the proceeds from the issuance of our common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock options, reduced by payments for notes payable either assumed or issued in conjunction with the acquisition of Intrepa. Also during 2001 and 2002, we purchased 65,000 and 260,000 shares of our common stock, respectively, for approximately $0.9 million and $4.1 million. These purchases were through open market transactions as part of a publicly-announced buy-back program.

     We believe there are opportunities to grow our business through the acquisition of complementary and synergistic companies, products and technologies. Any material acquisition could result in a decrease to our working capital depending on the amount, timing and nature of the consideration to be paid.

     We believe that existing balances of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs at least for the next twelve months.

New Accounting Pronouncements

     In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” This Statement requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method. The adoption of this Statement did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

     Also in July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” This Statement requires that goodwill and certain intangible assets, including those recorded in past business combinations, no longer be amortized to earnings, but instead be tested for impairment at least annually. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. We adopted SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002. Adoption of this statement resulted in no goodwill impairment losses and had no impact on our financial position as of January 1, 2002. In addition, the remaining useful lives of amortizable intangible assets were reviewed and deemed appropriate. The following reflects our results of operations as they would have appeared if we had not recorded amortization expense for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, net of taxes, during 2000 and 2001:

     In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.” This new Statement also supercedes certain aspects of APB 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual, and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions,” with regard to reporting the effects of a disposal of a segment of a business. SFAS No. 144 will require expected future operating losses from discontinued operations to be reported as discontinued operations in the period incurred (rather than as of the measurement date as presently required by APB 30). In addition, more dispositions may qualify for discontinued operations treatment. The provisions of this Statement are required to be applied for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this Statement did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

     In January 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board Emerging Issues Task Force issued No. 01-14 (“EITF No. 01-14”), “Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of-Pocket Expenses Incurred.” EITF No. 01-14 establishes that reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses should be reported as revenue in the statement of operations. During 2000 and 2001, we classified reimbursed out-of-pocket expenses as a reduction of operating expenses. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2002. Our adoption of EITF No. 01-14 resulted in increased hardware and other revenue and increased costs of hardware and other. Our results of operations for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the new presentation. The total amount of expense reimbursement recorded to expense was $5.5 million, $5.1 million and $5.4 million for 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Our adoption of EITF No. 01-14 will not affect our net income or loss in any past or future periods.

     In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.” SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. This statement is effective for restructuring activities commencing after December 31, 2002 and will have the effect of delaying the recognition of costs of any restructuring activities of the Company.

     In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 45 (FIN 45), “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others,” which clarifies disclosure and recognition/measurement requirements related to certain guarantees. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements issued after December 15, 2002 and the recognition/measurement requirements are effective on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

     In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.” SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002 and have been adopted by us in the notes to the financial statements. The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. As we did not make a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation in 2002, the adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

     In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” This interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities that possess certain characteristics. The interpretation requires that if a business enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities, and results of the activities of the variable interest entity must be included in the consolidated financial statements with those of the business enterprise. This interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. We do not have any ownership in any variable interest entities as of December 31, 2002. We will apply the consolidation requirement of the interpretation in future periods if we acquire any interest in any variable interest entity.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Exchange

     Our international business is subject to risks typical of an international business, including, but not limited to: differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility. Accordingly, our future results could be materially adversely impacted by changes in these or other factors.

     Total international revenue was approximately $15.1 million, $26.6 million and $33.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively, which represents approximately 11%, 17% and 19% of our total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. International revenue includes all revenue associated with sales of software, services and hardware outside the United States.

     We conduct our direct European operations principally out of an office in the United Kingdom, consisting of approximately 115 employees. Total revenue for European operations was approximately $10.5 million, $22.5 million and $29.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively, which represents approximately 8%, 14% and 17% of our total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Total net income for Europe was approximately $1.2 million, $2.2 million and $1.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. These transactions are typically denominated in British Pounds and Euros. A fluctuation of 10% in the average exchange rate of the British Pound and Euro relative to the US dollar during 2002 would have resulted in an increase or decrease in net income of approximately $150,000.

     We recognized a foreign exchange rate loss of approximately $130,000 during 2000 and foreign exchange rate gains of approximately $7,000 in 2001 and $830,000 in 2002, classified in “Other income, net” on our Consolidated Statements of Income. A fluctuation of 10% in the period end exchange rates at December 31, 2002 relative to the US dollar would result in approximately a $400,000 change in the reported foreign currency gain.

Interest Rates

     We invest our cash in a variety of financial instruments, including taxable and tax-advantaged variable rate and fixed rate obligations of corporations, municipalities, and local, state and national governmental entities and agencies. These investments are denominated in U.S. dollars. Cash balances in foreign currencies overseas are derived from operations.

     We account for our investment instruments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” (“SFAS 115”). All of the cash equivalents and short-term investments are treated as available-for-sale under SFAS 115.

     Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates, or we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have seen a decline in market value due to changes in interest rates. The weighted-average interest rate on investment securities at December 31, 2002 was approximately 1.4%, as compared to 1.7% at December 31, 2001. The fair value of cash equivalents and short-term investments held at December 31, 2002 was $114.8 million. Based on the average investments outstanding during 2002, an increase or decrease of 25 basis points would result in an increase or decrease to interest income of approximately $270,000 from the reported interest income.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Manhattan Associates, Inc.

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Manhattan Associates, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, comprehensive income and cash flow for the year then ended. Our audit also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) as of December 31, 2002, and for the year then ended. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audit. The financial statements and schedule of the Company as of December 31, 2001, and for the two years then ended were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations and whose reports dated January 31, 2002 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and schedule before the restatement adjustments described in Notes 1, 3 and 7.

     We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

     As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2002, the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets to conform with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combination, and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Also, as described in Note 1, in 2002 the Company changed its method of presenting reimbursements of out-of-pocket expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income upon adoption of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 01-14, Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of-Pocket Expenses Incurred.

     As discussed above, the consolidated financial statements and schedule of the Company as of December 31, 2001, and for the two years then ended were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations. As discussed in Note 1, the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2001, and for the two years then ended have been revised to reclassify certain assets included in Intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization in the prior year financial statements to Acquisition-related intangible assets, net, Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, net and Other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additionally, Interest income and Interest expense included in Other income (expense), net, in the prior years’ financial statements were reclassified to Interest income and Interest Expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Our audit procedures with respect to the adjustments included agreeing all of the assets and income statement amounts reclassified to the Company’s underlying records obtained from management.

     Also, the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2001, and for the two years then ended have been restated to include the income tax effect for Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity. Additionally, Note 1 has been revised to disclose additional detail with respect to the components of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of December 31, 2001. Our audit procedures with respect to the adjustments and additional detail included (a) agreeing the Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of related income taxes, the Deferred income taxes balances, and the components of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to the Company’s underlying records obtained from management and (b) testing the mathematical accuracy of the application of those restatement adjustments to the previously reported amounts of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and Deferred income taxes and the additional detail included in Note 1.

     Also, as discussed in Notes 1 and 7, the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2001, and for the two years then ended have been revised to include the transitional disclosures required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangibles, which was adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2002. Our audit procedures with respect to the disclosures in Notes 1 and 7 with respect to 2001 and 2000 included (a) agreeing the previously reported net income to the previously issued financial statements, (b) agreeing the adjustments to reported net income representing amortization expense (including any related tax effects) recognized in those periods related to goodwill that is no longer being amortized as a result of initially applying Statement No. 142 (including any related tax effects) to the Company’s underlying records obtained from management, (c) agreeing all 2001 separate asset and accumulated amortization balances as disclosed for individual intangibles to the Company’s underlying accounting records obtained from management,

(d) agreeing all 2001 and 2000 amortization expense disclosures to the Company’s underlying accounting records obtained from management and (e) testing the mathematical accuracy of the reconciliation of adjusted net income to reported net income.

     Also, as discussed in Notes 1 and 3, the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2001 and for the two years then ended have been revised to include the disclosures required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, which was adopted by the Company as of December 31, 2002. Our audit procedures with respect to the disclosures in Note 1 for 2001 and 2000 included (a) agreeing the previously reported net income to the previously issued financial statements, (b) agreeing the adjustments to reported net income representing compensation expense and pro forma compensation expense (including any related tax effects) related to those periods to the Company’s underlying records obtained from management and (c) testing the mathematical accuracy of the reconciliation of pro forma net income to reported net income and related earnings per share amounts.

     Also, the disclosures in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2001, have been revised to disclose additional detail with respect to the Net operating loss carryforwards and Valuation allowance. Our audit procedures with respect to this additional detail included (a) agreeing the Net operating loss carryforwards and Valuation allowance balances to the Company’s underlying records obtained from management and (b) testing the mathematical accuracy of the revisions to the table included in Note 2.

     Also, as discussed in Note 1, the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the two years ended December 31, 2001 have been revised to reclassify reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses previously recorded as a reduction of operating expenses to hardware and other revenue and an increase in cost of hardware and other revenue required by Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 01-14, Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of-Pocket Expenses Incurred, which was adopted by the Company in 2002. Our audit procedures with respect to these reclassifications for 2001 and 2000 included (a) agreeing the amounts of reimbursed out-of-pocket expenses related to those periods to the Company’s underlying records obtained from management, and (b) testing the mathematical accuracy of the application of these reclassification adjustments to the previously reported amounts of hardware and other revenue and cost of hardware and other.

     In our opinion, the disclosures and restatements for 2001 and 2000 with respect to the matters referred to in the preceding six paragraphs are appropriate. However, we were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the 2001 and 2000 consolidated financial statements of the Company other than with respect to such disclosures and restatements and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the 2001 and 2000 consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

Note: This is a copy of a report previously issued by Arthur Andersen LLP, the Company’s former independent accountants. The Arthur Andersen LLP report refers to certain financial information for the year ended December 31, 1999 and certain balance sheet information at December 31, 2000, which are no longer included in the accompanying financial statements. Arthur Andersen LLP has not reissued this report in connection with the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

      Section 11(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provides that if any part of a registration statement at the time such part becomes effective contains an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, any person acquiring a security pursuant to such registration statement (unless it is proved that at the time of such acquisition such person knew of such untruth or omission) may assert a claim against, among others, every accountant who has consented to be named as having prepared or certified any part of the registration statement, or as having prepared or certified any report or valuation which is used in connection with the registration statement, with respect to such statements in such registration statement, report or valuation if they purport to have been prepared or certified by the accountant.

      On April 24, 2002, Manhattan Associates, Inc. (“Manhattan”) determined not to renew the engagement of Arthur Andersen LLP (“Andersen”) as its independent auditor and retained Ernst & Young LLP as Manhattan’s independent auditors with respect to the audit of Manhattan’s consolidated financial statements for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2002. This Form 10-K is incorporated by reference into Manhattan’s previously filed registration statements on Form S-8 (File Nos. 333-68968, 333-45802 and 333-60635) and registration statements on Form S-3 and Post Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-3 (File Nos. 333-68972 and 333-53388) (the “Registration Statements”) and, for purposes of determining liability under the Securities Act, is deemed a new registration statement for each Registration Statement into which it is incorporated by reference. After reasonable efforts, Manhattan has been unable to obtain Andersen’s written consent to the incorporation by reference into the Registration Statements of Andersen’s audit report with respect to Manhattan’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001. Under these circumstances, Rule 437a under the Securities Act permits Manhattan to file this Form 10-K without a written consent from Andersen. As a result, Andersen will not have any liability under Section 11(a) of the Securities Act for any untrue statements of material fact contained in the financial statements audited by Andersen or any omissions of a material fact required to be stated therein. Accordingly, you would be unable to assert a claim against Andersen under Section 11(a) of the Securities Act for any purchases of securities under the Registration Statements made on or after the date of this Form 10-K. In addition, the ability of Andersen to satisfy any claims (including claims arising from Andersen’s provision of auditing and other services to Manhattan) may be limited as a practical matter due to recent events regarding Andersen. To the extent provided in Section 11(b)(3)(C) of the Securities Act, however, other persons who are liable under Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, including the Manhattan’s officers and directors, may still rely on Andersen’s original audit reports as being made by an expert for purposes of establishing a due diligence defense under Section 11(b) of the Securities Act.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To Manhattan Associates, Inc.:

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MANHATTAN ASSOCIATES, INC. (a Georgia corporation) AND SUBSIDIARIES as of December 31, 2000 and 2001 and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Manhattan Associates, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 2001 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Business

     Manhattan Associates, Inc. (“Manhattan” or the “Company”) is a provider of technology-based solutions to improve supply chain effectiveness and efficiencies across the supply chain. The Company’s solutions are designed to optimize the receipt, storage, assembly and distribution of inventory and the management of equipment and personnel within a distribution center, enhance the management of transportation costs and transportation providers, and improve the management of trading partners. The Company’s solutions consist of software, including, a comprehensive suite of robust and modular software products; services, including design, configuration, implementation and training services, plus customer support services and software enhancements subscriptions; and hardware.

     The Company’s operations are in North America, Europe and Asia/Pacific. Its European operations are conducted through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Manhattan Associates, Ltd. and Manhattan Associates Europe, B.V. in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, respectively. The Company’s Asia/Pacific operations are conducted through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Manhattan Associates, Pty Ltd. and Manhattan Associates (India) Development Centre Private Limited in Australia and India, respectively. The Company occasionally sells its products in other regions, such as Latin America and the Far East through its direct sales channel as well as various reseller channels.

Principles of Consolidation and Foreign Currency Translation

     The accompanying 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 financial statements of foreign subsidiaries have been translated into United States dollars in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation. Revenues from international customers were denominated in the respective local currencies and translated using the average monthly exchange rates for the year. All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and the effect of changes in exchange rates from year to year are disclosed as a separate component of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents.

     Concentrations of Credit Risk

     Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments with various financial institutions. The Company’s sales are primarily to companies located in the United States and Europe. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and does not require collateral. Accounts receivable are due principally from large U.S. companies under stated contract terms. The Company provides for estimated credit losses at the time of sale.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

     Concentrations of Credit Risk (continued)

     Our top five customers in aggregate accounted for 22%, 21% and 16% of total revenue for each of the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001, and 2002, respectively. Sales to one customer (“the significant customer”) accounted for approximately 10% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2001. Most of the revenue from the significant customer in 2001 arose from purchases of hardware. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of revenue in 2000 or 2002. Accounts receivable from the significant customer on December 31, 2001 was approximately $4.3 million. On January 22, 2002, the significant customer for 2001 filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the filing, the uncertainties around the bankruptcy proceedings and the ultimate timing of payment, we recorded an allowance of $4.3 million in 2001 to effectively defer revenues arising in the fourth quarter of 2001 from the significant customer, but unpaid at the time of the bankruptcy declaration. The allowance included approximately $2.3 million of software fees, $1.6 million of fees for professional services and $0.4 million of hardware. In September 2002, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division authorized the significant customer’s request to assume the software license, services, support and enhancement agreement. With the appeals process completed in October 2002, the Company recovered approximately $2.3 million of the allowance during the fourth quarter of 2002. As of December 31, 2002, approximately $850,000 remains in accounts receivable from the significant customer. Because the receipt of the final $850,000 payment is contingent on the significant customer emerging from bankruptcy, the receivable is fully reserved for in the allowance for doubtful accounts.

     Marketable Securities

     The Company’s investments in marketable securities consist of debt instruments of the U.S. Treasury, U.S. government agencies and corporate commercial paper. These investments are categorized as available-for-sale securities and recorded at fair market value, as defined by SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” Unrealized holding gains and losses are reflected as a net amount in a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized. For the purposes of computing realized gains and losses, cost is identified on a specific identification basis. At December 31, 2001 and 2002, the cumulative unrealized gain on short-term investments was $73,000 and $29,000, respectively. The following is a summary of the available-for-sale securities, all of which have maturities of less than one year (in thousands):

     Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based upon an evaluation of the Company’s customers’ ability to pay and general economic conditions; the useful lives of intangible assets; the recoverability or impairment of intangible asset values; and the Company’s effective income tax rate and deferred tax assets, which are based upon the Company’s expectations of future taxable income, allowable deductions, and projected tax credits. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

     Fair Value of Financial Instruments

     The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other financial instruments included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximate their fair values principally due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

     Risks Associated with Single Business Line, Technological Advances, and Foreign Operations

     The Company currently derives a substantial portion of its revenues from sales of its software and related services and hardware. Any factor adversely affecting the markets for distribution management center solutions could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

     The markets for supply chain collaboration and distribution center management solutions are subject to rapid technological change, changing customer needs, frequent new product introductions, and evolving industry standards that may render existing products and services obsolete. As a result, the Company’s position in these markets could be eroded rapidly by unforeseen changes in customer requirements for application features, functions, and technologies. The Company’s growth and future operating results will depend, in part, upon its ability to enhance existing applications and develop and introduce new applications that meet changing customer requirements, that respond to competitive products and that achieve market acceptance.

     The Company’s international business is subject to risks typical of an international business, including, but not limited to: differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility. Accordingly, the future results could be materially adversely impacted by changes in these or other factors. The Company recognized a foreign exchange rate loss of approximately $130,000 during 2000 and foreign exchange rate gains of approximately $7,000 in 2001 and $830,000 in 2002, classified in “Other income, net” on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

     Revenue Recognition

     The Company’s revenue consists of revenues from the licensing of software; fees from consulting, implementation and training services (collectively, “professional services”), plus customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions; and sales of hardware.

     The Company recognizes software license revenue under Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP 97-2”), as amended by Statement of Position No. 98-9, “Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions” (“SOP 98-9”), specifically when the following criteria are met: (1) a signed contract is obtained; (2) delivery of the product has occurred; (3) the license fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectibility is probable. SOP 98-9 requires recognition of revenue using the “residual method” when (1) there is vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair values of all undelivered elements in a multiple-element arrangement that is not accounted for using long-term contract accounting; (2) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value does not exist for one or more of the delivered elements in the arrangement; and (3) all revenue-recognition criteria in SOP 97-2, other than the requirement for vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair value of each delivered element of the arrangement are satisfied. For those contracts that contain significant customization or modifications, license revenue is recognized under the percentage of completion method.

     The Company’s services revenue consists of fees generated from professional services, customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions related to the Company’s software products. Fees from professional services performed by the Company are generally billed on an hourly basis, and revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Professional services are sometimes rendered under agreements in which billings are limited to contractual maximums or based upon a fixed-fee for portions of or all of the engagement, but only in instances when the scope of the project is reasonably quantifiable. Revenue related to fixed-fee based contracts is recognized on a percent complete basis based on the hours incurred. Project losses are provided for in their entirety in the period in which they become known. Revenue related to customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions are generally paid in advance and recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically 12 months.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

     Revenue Recognition (continued)

     Hardware revenue is generated from the resale of a variety of hardware products, developed and manufactured by third parties, that are integrated with and complementary to the Company’s software solutions. As part of a complete solution, the Company’s customers frequently purchase hardware from the Company in conjunction with the licensing of software. These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminals networks, bar code printers and scanners, and other peripherals. Hardware revenue is recognized upon shipment to the customer when title passes. The Company generally purchases hardware from its vendors only after receiving an order from a customer. As a result, the Company does not maintain significant hardware inventory.

     Deferred Revenue

     Deferred revenue represents amounts collected prior to complete performance of professional services, customer support services and software enhancement subscriptions and significant obligations under license agreements. The Company expects to complete such services or obligations within the next twelve months.

     Returns and Allowances

     The Company has not experienced significant returns or warranty claims to date and, as a result, has not recorded a provision for the cost of returns and product warranty claims at December 31, 2001 or 2002.

     The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the historical experience of write-offs and a detailed assessment of accounts receivable. In estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts, management considers the age of the accounts receivable, the Company’s historical write-offs, and the credit worthiness of the customer, among others. Should any of these factors change, the estimates made by management will also change accordingly, which could affect the level of the Company’s future provision for doubtful accounts. Uncollectible accounts are written off when it is determined that the specific balance is not collectible.

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment consists of furniture, computers, other office equipment, purchased software for internal use, and leasehold improvements recorded at cost. The Company depreciates the cost of furniture, computers, other office equipment and purchased software on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives (three years for computer equipment and software, five years for office equipment, seven years for furniture). Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of its useful life or the term of the lease. Included in computer equipment and software are assets under a capital lease of approximately $447,000 and $239,000, net of depreciation, as of December 31, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Depreciation and amortization expense for property and equipment for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002 was approximately $4,315,000, $5,719,000 and $6,275,000, respectively, and was included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income.

     Property and equipment, at cost, consist of the following (in thousands):

                 
    December 31,
   
    2001   2002
   
 
Computer equipment and software

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

     Acquisition-Related Intangible Assets

     Acquisition-related intangible assets are stated at historical cost and include acquired software and certain other intangible assets with definite lives. The acquired software is being amortized over the greater of the amount computed using (a) the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product or (b) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product including the period being reported on. The other intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of two to ten years. Total amortization expense related to acquisition-related intangible assets was approximately $394,000, $1,867,000 and $1,772,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively, and is included in amortization of acquisition-related intangibles in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

     Acquisition-Related Intangible Assets consist of the following (in thousands):

                 
    December 31,
   
    2001   2002
   
 
Acquired software
  $ 9,108     $ 9,230

  $ 7,408     $ 10,379  
 
   
     
 

     The Company expects amortization expense for the next five years to be as follows based on intangible assets as of December 31, 2002 (in thousands):

         
2003
  $ 2,670  
2004
    2,670

    990  
2007
    974  

     Goodwill and Intangible Assets with Indefinite Lives

     Goodwill, which represents the excess of purchase price over fair value of net assets acquired, and certain other intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer being amortized on a straight-line basis. On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Under the new statement, the Company no longer amortizes goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, but instead tests for impairment on at least an annual basis. Total amortization expense related to goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives was approximately $771,000 and $3,373,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively, and is included in amortization of acquisition-related intangibles in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

     Goodwill and Intangible Assets with indefinite lives consist of the following (in thousands):

                 
    December 31,
   
    2001   2002

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

     Software Development Costs

     Research and development expenses are charged to expense as incurred. The Company determines the amount of development costs capitalizable under the provisions of SFAS No. 86, “Accounting for Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed.” Computer software development costs are charged to research and development expense until technological feasibility is established, after which remaining software production costs are capitalized in accordance with SFAS No. 86. The Company has defined technological feasibility as the point in time at which the Company has a detailed program design or a working model of the related product, depending on the type of development efforts. For the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, the Company capitalized no internal research and development costs because the costs incurred between the attainment of technological feasibility for the related software product through the date when the product was available for general release to customers has been insignificant. During 2001, payments of approximately $717,000 were made to an outside research and development organization to internationalize PkMS into Japanese, German, French and Spanish. The payments have been capitalized as Other Assets and are being amortized over a three-year period beginning in January 2002. Total amortization expense related to software development costs capitalized prior to 2000 and during 2001 was approximately $620,000, $406,000 and $526,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively, and is included in cost of software fees in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

     Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

     The Company periodically reviews the values assigned to long-lived assets, including property and certain intangible assets, to determine whether events and circumstances have occurred which indicate that the remaining estimated useful lives may warrant revision or that the remaining balances may not be recoverable. In such reviews, undiscounted cash flows associated with these assets are compared with their carrying value to determine if a write-down to fair value is required. Management believes the long-lived and intangible assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are fairly valued.

     The evaluation of asset impairment requires management to make assumptions about future cash flows over the life of the asset being evaluated. These assumptions require significant judgment, and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts.

     Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets with Indefinite Lives

     In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” which was adopted in its entirety on January 1, 2002, the Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets annually as of December 31 and between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to, (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. When evaluating whether the goodwill or other intangible asset is impaired, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill or other intangible asset is assigned to its carrying amount, including goodwill and the other intangible assets. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of the impairment loss must be measured. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill to its carrying amount. In calculating the implied fair value of goodwill or other intangible assets, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities of that unit based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. The initial evaluation of goodwill and other intangible assets completed as of June 30, 2002 in accordance with SFAS No. 142 resulted in no impairment losses. Additionally, the Company performed its periodic review of its goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment as of December 31, 2002, and did not identify any asset impairment as a result of the review. The Company also recorded no impairment losses during 2001 or 2000 prior to adopting SFAS No. 142.

     Segment Information

     The Company operates in a single segment as defined by SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” See Note 9 for discussion of foreign operations.

     Advertising Costs

     Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and totaled approximately $820,000, $540,000 and $715,000 in 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Advertising costs are included in sales and marketing on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

     Basic net income per share is computed using net income divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (“Weighted Shares”) for the period presented.

     Diluted net income per share is computed using net income divided by Weighted Shares, and the treasury stock method effect of common equivalent shares (“CESs”) outstanding for each period presented. The following is a reconciliation of the shares used in the computation of net income per share for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002:

                                                 
    2000   2001   2002
   
 
 
    Basic   Diluted   Basic   Diluted   Basic   Diluted

     Options to purchase 989,600, 1,137,100 and 1,924,075 shares of common stock were outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options exercise price was greater than the average marked price of the common shares during the respective years. See Note 3 for further information on those securities.

     Stock-Based Compensation

     The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plan for stock issued to employees under Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and, accordingly, records deferred compensation for options granted at an exercise price below the fair value of the underlying stock. The deferred compensation is presented as a component of equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and is amortized over the periods to be benefited, generally the vesting period of the options. Effective in fiscal year 1996, the Company adopted the pro forma disclosure option for stock-based compensation issued to employees of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.”

     Pro forma information regarding net income and net income per share is required by SFAS No. 123, which also requires that the information be determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock option grants under the fair value method required by SFAS No. 123. The fair value of each option grant has been estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

                         
    2000   2001   2002
   
 
 
Dividend yield
                 
Expected volatility
    131 %     122 %     84 %
Risk-free interest rate at the date of grant
    5.0 %     5.0 %     2.0 %
Expected life
  5 years   5 years   6 years

     Using these assumptions, the fair values of the stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002 are $37,221,000, $30,421,000 and $24,693,000, respectively, which would be amortized over the vesting period of the options.

     The weighted average fair values of options at the date of grant for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002 was $33.07, $22.37 and $16.61, respectively.

     During the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, the Company granted 1,460,275, 1,658,700 and 1,637,900 options, respectively, with exercise price ranges of $7.38 to $68.38 during 2000, $12.90 to $42.63 during 2001 and $14.85 to $39.55 during 2002. The weighted average exercise prices of options granted during 2000, 2001 and 2002 were $37.90, $26.23 and $23.12, respectively. All options were granted at fair market value.

     Comprehensive Income

     In fiscal 1999, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income.” This statement establishes the rules for the reporting of comprehensive income and its components. The Company’s comprehensive income includes net income, foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on short-term investments. The components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of December 31, 2001 and 2002 are as follows:

2001 2002


Foreign currency translation adjustment

     Reclassifications

     Certain reclassifications were made to the prior years’ financial statements to conform to the 2002 presentation.

     New Accounting Pronouncements

     In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” This Statement requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method. The adoption of this Statement did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

     New Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

     Also in July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” This Statement requires that goodwill and certain intangible assets, including those recorded in past business combinations, no longer be amortized to earnings, but instead be tested for impairment at least annually. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002. Adoption of this statement resulted in no goodwill impairment losses and had no impact on the Company’s financial position as of January 1, 2002. In addition, the remaining useful lives of amortizable intangible assets were reviewed and deemed appropriate. The following reflects the Company’s results of operations as they would have appeared if the Company had not recorded amortization expense for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, net of taxes, during 2000 and 2001:

Diluted net income per share — adjusted
  $ 0.55     $ 0.60     $ 0.83  

     In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.” This new Statement also supercedes certain aspects of APB 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual, and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions,” with regard to reporting the effects of a disposal of a segment of a business. SFAS No. 144 requires that we evaluate long-lived assets based on the net future cash flow expected to be generated from the asset on an undiscounted basis whenever significant events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying of any asset may not be recoverable. In addition, SFAS No. 144 will require expected future operating losses from discontinued operations to be reported as discontinued operations in the period incurred (rather than as of the measurement date as presently required by APB 30). In addition, more dispositions may qualify for discontinued operations treatment. The provisions of this Statement are required to be applied for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this Statement did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

     In January 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Emerging Issues Task Force issued No. 01-14 (“EITF No. 01-14”), “Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of-Pocket Expenses Incurred.” EITF No. 01-14 establishes that reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses should be reported as revenue in the statement of operations. During 2000 and 2001, we classified reimbursed out-of-pocket expenses as a reduction of operating expenses. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2002. The adoption of EITF No. 01-14 resulted in increased hardware and other revenue and increased costs of hardware and other. The results of operations for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the new presentation. The total amount of expense reimbursement recorded to expense was $5.5 million, $5.1 million and $5.4 million for 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. The adoption of EITF No. 01-14 does not affect the Company’s net income or loss in any past or future periods.

     In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.” SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. This statement is effective for restructuring activities commencing after December 31, 2002 and will have the effect of delaying the recognition of costs of any future restructuring activities of the Company.

     New Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

     In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 45 (FIN 45), “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others,” which clarifies disclosure and recognition/measurement requirements related to certain guarantees. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements issued after December 15, 2002 and the recognition/measurement requirements are effective on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The Company does not believe that the impact of adopting FIN 45 will have a material impact on the financial statements.

     In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.” SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002 and have been adopted by the Company in these notes to the financial statements. The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. As the Company did not make a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation in 2002, the adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

     In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” This interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities that possess certain characteristics. The interpretation requires that if a business enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities, and results of the activities of the variable interest entity must be included in the consolidated financial statements with those of the business enterprise. This interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. The Company does not believe that it has any ownership in any variable interest entities as of December 31, 2002. The Company will apply the consolidation requirement of the interpretation in future periods if it acquires any interest in any variable interest entity.

     The income tax benefits related to the exercise of stock options were allocated to additional paid-in capital. Such amounts were approximately $13,522,000, $9,049,000 and $14,024,000 for 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively.

     As a result of the tax benefit related to the exercise of stock options, the Company has federal net operating loss carry-forwards (“NOLs”) of approximately $32,653,000 available to offset future income in those respective taxing jurisdictions. The federal NOLs expire in 2021. The NOLs may be subject to certain limitations in the event of a change in ownership. In addition, the Company has approximately $2,246,000 of research and development tax credit carryforwards that expire in 2018 to 2022.

     The following is a summary of the items that cause recorded income taxes to differ from taxes computed using the statutory federal income tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002:

3. Stock Option Plans

     The Manhattan Associates LLC Option Plan (the “LLC Option Plan”) became effective on January 1, 1997. The LLC Option Plan is administered by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors. The options are granted at terms determined by the committee; however, the options cannot have a term exceeding ten years. Options granted under the LLC Option Plan have vesting periods ranging from immediately to six years. Subsequent to February 28, 1998, no additional options could be granted pursuant to the LLC Option Plan.

     Prior to the establishment of the LLC Option Plan, the Company issued options to purchase 661,784 shares of common stock to certain employees. These grants contain provisions similar to options issued under the LLC Option Plan.

     The Manhattan Associates, Inc. 1998 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Incentive Plan”) was adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by the shareholders in February 1998. The Stock Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options. Optionees have the right to purchase a specified number of shares of common stock at a specified option price and subject to such terms and conditions as are specified in connection with the option grant. The Stock Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The committee has the authority to adopt, amend and repeal the administrative rules, guidelines and practices relating to the Stock Incentive Plan generally and to interpret the provisions thereof. Options granted under the Stock Incentive Plan cannot have a term exceeding ten years and typically vest over a period of three to six years.

     As of December 31, 2002, the Stock Incentive Plan provides for issuance of up to 12,017,358 shares of common stock (subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits and other similar events), less the number of shares issued under the LLC Option Plan, in the form of stock options and other stock incentives. The number of shares available for issuance under the Plan is automatically adjusted, without shareholder approval, on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning with the 2000 fiscal year, by a number of shares such that the total number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan equals the sum of (i) the aggregate number of shares previously issued under the Plan and the LLC Option Plan; (ii) the aggregate number of shares subject to then outstanding stock incentives granted under the Plan and the LLC Option Plan; and (iii) 5% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding on the last day of the preceding fiscal year. However, no more than 1,000,000 of the shares available for grant each year shall be available for issuance pursuant to incentive stock options, and no more than 10,000,000 shares resulting from such automatic adjustments may ever be issued during the term of the Plan.

     A summary of changes in outstanding options is as follows:

Leases

     Rents charged to expense were approximately $2,423,000, $3,269,000 and $4,015,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. The principal leases expire on March 31, 2008, at which time the Company has the option to renew for an additional five years at then current market rates. Aggregate future minimum lease payments under the capital lease and noncancellable operating leases as of December 31, 2002 are as follows (in thousands):

Employment Agreements

     The Company has entered into employment contracts with certain executives and other key employees. The agreements provide for total severance payments of up to approximately $2.1 million for termination of employment for any reason other than cause. Payment terms vary from a lump sum payment to equal monthly installments over a period of not more than 12 months. No amounts have been accrued because the amounts cannot be reasonably estimated.

Legal Matters

     Many of the Company’s installations involve products that are critical to the operations of its clients’ businesses. Any failure in a Company product could result in a claim for substantial damages against the Company, regardless of the Company’s responsibility for such failure. Although the Company attempts to limit contractually its liability for damages arising from product failures or negligent acts or omissions, there can be no assurance the limitations of liability set forth in its contracts will be enforceable in all instances. The Company expenses legal costs associated with loss contingencies as such legal costs are incurred.

6. Long-Term Debt

     A portion of the purchase price of the Intrepa acquisition was funded with the issuance of a promissory note (the “Note”). The Note was payable in four equal installments of $1.75 million, to be paid every six months beginning on October 1, 2001 and concluding on April 1, 2003. The Note was subject to interest at a rate of 8% per year, which was due on the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Company for so long as principal remained outstanding under the Note. Long-term debt as of December 31, 2001 consisted of the $1.75 million payment due in April 2003. In April 2002, the Company prepaid in full $5.25 million outstanding under the Note; therefore, the Company has no long-term debt as of December 31, 2002.

7. Acquisitions

     Intrepa L.L.C.

     On October 24, 2000, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Intrepa, L.L.C. (“Intrepa”) for a purchase price of approximately $31.0 million. Intrepa was a provider of warehouse management and transportation management solutions. We completed the acquisition to enhance our product offering and to expand our customer base. The purchase price consisted of a cash payment of $13.0 million, the issuance of approximately $10.0 million of the Company’s $.01 par value per share common stock (totaling 236,957 shares), and the

Acquisitions (continued)

issuance by the Company of a promissory note for $7.0 million. The Company also incurred approximately $0.9 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition. The purchase price included the assumption of substantially all of the liabilities of Intrepa, including immediate payment by the Company of the remaining $2.0 million of principal and up to $15,000 interest on a promissory note previously issued by Intrepa. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Based on an independent appraisal, the purchase price was allocated to net liabilities assumed of $2.6 million, acquired in-process research and development of $2.4 million (see Note 8), acquired developed technology of $7.5 million, and other intangible assets of $23.5 million. Acquired developed technology is being amortized over the greater of the amount computed using (a) the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product or (b) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product including the period being reported on. Approximately $1.3 million of the other intangible assets are being amortized over a seven-year useful life. The remaining $22.2 million was amortized until December 31, 2001, which resulted in accumulated amortization expense of approximately $3.7 million. Effective January 1, 2002, the other indefinite-lived intangible assets are no longer being amortized, but are being reviewed for impairment on at least an annual basis.

     Logistics.com

     On December 31, 2002, the Company acquired certain assets of Logistics.com, Inc. from Internet Capital Group for a one-time cash payment of approximately $21.2 million, of which $1.5 million is being held in escrow until December 31, 2003. Logistics.com provides logistics planning and execution solutions that provide cost savings to shippers and carriers. The Company acquired the assets of Logistics.com to enhance its existing transportation management product offering and to expand its customer base. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and the results of operations will be included in the Company’s operations after that date. No amounts are included in the operating results for the year ended December 31, 2002.

     The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired, based on an independent appraisal, and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition, December 31, 2002 (in thousands):

          $ 1,724

     The $1.5 million assigned to in-process research and development assets were written off at the date of acquisition in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 4, Applicability of FASB Statement No. 2 to Business Combinations Accounted for by the Purchase Method.

     The allocation of purchase price is based on preliminary estimates of the fair value and the estimated useful life of the acquired assets and is subject to revision based upon the finalization of management’s assessment of the fair value and estimated useful life of the acquired net assets, particularly intangible assets. Changes in the allocation of purchase price will be limited to changes to the estimated useful lives of other identified intangible assets, possibly resulting in a change in the allocation between indefinite-lived assets, which are not amortized, but rather are tested for impairment, and definite-lived assets, which are amortized over their useful lives.

     The Goodwill will not be amortized, but will be reviewed for impairment on an annual basis.

8. In-Process Research and Development and Acquisition-Related Restructuring Charges

     In-process research and development represents the value assigned in a purchase business combination to research and development projects of the acquired business that had commenced but had not reached technological feasibility and has no alternative future use. In accordance with SFAS No. 2, “Accounting for Research and Development Costs,” as clarified by FASB Interpretation No. 4, amounts assigned to in-process research and development meeting the above stated criteria must be charged to expense as part of the allocation of the purchase price of the business combination. Accordingly, charges totaling $2,425,000 and $1,470,000 were recorded during 2000 and 2002, respectively, as part of the allocations of the purchase prices related to the acquisitions of Intrepa and Logistics.com.

     In 2000, the Company recorded a restructuring charge as a result of the acquisition of Intrepa. The charge consists entirely of severance related costs. These costs were paid in the fourth quarter of 2000 and the first quarter of 2001. The following is a summary of the amounts incurred:

                         
    2000 Charge   Paid 2000   Paid 2001
   
 
 
Employee severance
  $ 576,000     $ 121,000     $ 455,000

International revenue includes all revenue associated with sales of software, services and hardware outside the United States.

     During 1998, the Company commenced operations in Europe. Total revenue for Europe was approximately $10.5 million, $22.5 million and $29.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Total net income for Europe was approximately $1.2 million, $2.2 million and $1.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Total long-lived assets for Europe were approximately $4.6 million, $7.7 million and $10.3 million as of December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively.

10. Employee Benefit Plan

     The Company sponsors the Manhattan Associates 401(k) Plan and Trust (the “401(k) Plan”), a qualified profit sharing plan with a 401(k) feature covering substantially all employees of the Company. Under the 401(k) Plan’s deferred compensation arrangement, eligible employees who elect to participate in the 401(k) Plan may contribute up to 18% of eligible compensation up to $11,000, as defined, to the 401(k) Plan. The Company provides for a 50% matching contribution up to 6% of eligible compensation being contributed after the participant’s first year of employment. During the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, the Company made matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan of $706,000, $1,059,000 and $1,006,000, respectively.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

     On April 24, 2002, our Board of Directors, upon recommendation of our audit committee, engaged Ernst & Young LLP as the principal accountant to audit our financial statements for fiscal year 2002. Our Board of Directors dismissed Arthur Andersen LLP for fiscal year 2002. The dismissal of Arthur Andersen occurred simultaneously with our engagement of Ernst & Young. Arthur Andersen’s reports on our financial statements for fiscal years 2001 and 2000 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 and through the date hereof, there were no disagreements with Arthur Andersen on any matter of accounting principle or practice, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure that, if not resolved to Arthur Andersen’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter in connection with its report on our financial statements for such years; and there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. During the two most recent fiscal years and subsequent interim period prior to our engagement of Ernst & Young, we did not consult with Ernst & Young regarding either the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, or any matter that was either the subject of disagreement on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures or a reportable event, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

This system is continually reviewed and is augmented by written policies and procedures, the careful selection and training of qualified personnel and an internal audit program to monitor its effectiveness. During the quarter ended December 31, 2002, there were no significant changes to this system of internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect those controls.

EXHIBIT 23.1 CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS We consent to the incorporation by reference in the Registration Statements of Manhattan Associates, Inc. listed below of our report dated February 11, 2003, with respect to the consolidated financial statements and schedule of Manhattan Associates, Inc. and subsidiaries included in the Annual Report (Form 10-K) for the year ended December 31, 2002. 1. Registration Statement on Form S-8 pertaining to the Manhattan Associates, Inc. 1998 Stock Incentive Plan (File No. 333-68968); 2.

EXHIBIT 99.1 SAFE HARBOR COMPLIANCE STATEMENT FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS You should consider the following factors in evaluating our business or an investment in our common stock. If any of the following or other risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline. OUR OPERATING RESULTS ARE DIFFICULT TO PREDICT AND COULD CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO FALL. Our quarterly revenue and operating results are difficult to predict and may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. If our quarterly revenue or operating results fall below the expectations of investors or public market analysts, the price of our common stock could fall substantially. Our quarterly revenue is difficult to forecast for several reasons, including the following: o the varying sales cycle for our products and services from customer to customer; o demand for our products; o customers' budgeting and purchasing cycles; o delays in our implementations at customer sites; o timing of hiring new services employees and the rate at which these employees become productive; o development and performance of our distribution channels; and o timing of any acquisitions and related costs. As a result of these and other factors, our license revenue is difficult to predict. Because our revenue from services is largely correlated to our license revenue, a decline in license revenue could also cause a decline in our services revenue in the same quarter or in subsequent quarters. In addition, an increase or decrease in hardware sales, which provide us with lower gross margins than sales of software licenses or services, may cause variations in our quarterly operating results. Most of our expenses, including employee compensation and rent, are relatively fixed. In addition, our expense levels are based, in part, on our expectations regarding future revenue increases. As a result, any shortfall in revenue in relation to our expectations could cause significant changes in our operating results from quarter to quarter and could result in quarterly losses. As a result of these factors, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our revenue levels and operating results are not necessarily meaningful. Although we have grown significantly during the past five years, we do not believe that our prior growth rates are sustainable or a good indicator of future operating results. You should not rely on our historical quarterly revenue and operating results to predict our future performance. OUR PERFORMANCE MAY BE NEGATIVELY IMPACTED BY MACRO-ECONOMIC OR OTHER EXTERNAL INFLUENCES. Approximately 80% of our revenues and the vast majority of our profits and cash flows are derived within the United States. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2000, a declining United States economy began to adversely impact the performances of many businesses particularly within the technology sector. We are a technology company selling technology-based solutions with total pricing, including software and services, in many cases, exceeding $1.0 million. Reductions in the capital budgets of our customers and prospective customers could have an adverse impact on our ability to sell our solutions. The prolonged recession of the U.S. economy will likely result in less capital expenditures, which may adversely impact our business and/or our ability to compete, and is

likely to further intensify our intensely competitive markets. Competitors with greater capital resources and operational efficiencies than us are likely better positioned to prevail in a prolonged recession. In addition, the threat of terrorist activity and the armed conflict in Iraq could exacerbate the recession of the U.S. economy and could require changes in our international operations and security arrangements increasing our operating costs. OUR OPERATING RESULTS ARE SUBSTANTIALLY DEPENDENT ON ONE LINE OF BUSINESS. We currently derive a substantial portion of our revenues from sales of our software and related services and hardware. Any factor adversely affecting the markets for supply chain execution ("SCE") solutions could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Accordingly, our future operating results will depend on the demand for our products and related services and hardware by our customers, including new and enhanced releases that we subsequently introduce. We cannot assure you that the market will continue to demand our current products or that we will be successful in marketing any new or enhanced products. If our competitors release new products that are superior to our products in performance or price, demand for our products may decline. A decline in demand for our products as a result of competition, technological change or other factors would reduce our total revenues and harm our ability to maintain profitability. DELAYS IN IMPLEMENTATIONS OF OUR PRODUCTS COULD ADVERSELY IMPACT US. Due to the size and complexity of most of our software implementations, our implementation cycle can be lengthy and may result in delays. These delays could cause customer dissatisfaction, which could harm our reputation. Additional delays could result if we fail to attract, train and retain services personnel, or if our alliance companies fail to commit sufficient resources towards implementing our software. These delays and resulting customer dissatisfaction could harm our reputation and cause our revenue to decline. OUR ABILITY TO SUCCESSFULLY COMPETE WITH OTHER COMPANIES MAY FAIL. We compete in markets that are intensely competitive and are expected to become more competitive as current competitors expand their product offerings and new competitors enter the market. Our current competitors come from many segments of the software industry and offer a variety of solutions directed at various aspects of the extended supply chain, as well as the enterprise as a whole. We face competition for product sales from: o supply chain execution vendors, including Catalyst International, Inc., EXE Technologies, Inc., HighJump Software, Inc., LIS Logistics & Internet Systems Limited, RedPrarie Corporation, Optum, Inc. and Provia Software Inc. among others; o ERP or Supply Chain Management ("SCM") application vendors with products or modules of their product suite offering varying degrees of SCE functionality, such as Retek, Inc., J.D. Edwards & Company and SAP AG; o the corporate information technology departments of current or potential customers capable of internally developing solutions; and o smaller independent companies that have developed or are attempting to develop distribution center management software that competes with our SCE solutions. We may face competition in the future from ERP and SCM applications vendors and business application software vendors that may broaden their product offerings by internally developing, acquiring or partnering with independent developers of supply chain execution software. To the extent such ERP and SCM vendors develop or acquire systems with functionality comparable or superior to our products, their significant installed customer bases, long-standing customer relationships and ability to offer a broad solution could provide a significant competitive advantage over our products. In addition, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among current and new competitors may emerge and rapidly gain significant market share. Increased competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced gross margins and loss of market share. We believe that the domain expertise required to compete provides us with a competitive advantage and is a significant barrier to market entry.

However, some of our competitors have significant resources at their disposal, and the degree to which we will compete with these new products in the marketplace is still undetermined. Many of our competitors and potential competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources, greater name recognition and a larger installed base of customers than we do. In order to be successful in the future, we must continue to respond promptly and effectively to technological change and competitors' innovations. We cannot assure you that our current or potential competitors will not develop products comparable or superior in terms of price and performance features to those developed by us. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will not be required to make substantial additional investments in connection with our research, development, marketing, sales and customer service efforts in order to meet any competitive threat, or that we will be able to compete successfully in the future. Increased competition may result in reductions in market share, pressure for price reductions and related reductions in gross margins, any of which could materially and adversely affect our ability to achieve our financial and business goals. OUR FAILURE TO MANAGE GROWTH OF OPERATIONS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT US. We plan to continue to increase the scope of our operations domestically and internationally. This growth may place a significant strain on our management systems and resources. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected. We may further expand domestically or internationally through internal growth or through acquisitions of related companies and technologies. For us to effectively manage our growth, we must continue to: o maintain continuity in our executive officers; o improve our operational, financial and management controls; o improve our reporting systems and procedures; o enhance management and information control systems; o develop the management skills of our managers and supervisors; and o train and motivate our employees. OUR INABILITY TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN MANAGEMENT AND OTHER PERSONNEL MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT US. Our success greatly depends on the continued service of our executives, as well as our other key senior management, technical and sales personnel. The loss of any of our senior management or other key professional services, research and development, sales and marketing personnel, particularly if lost to competitors, could impair our ability to grow our business. We do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our executive officers. Our future success will depend in large part upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly-skilled employees. We face significant competition for individuals with the skills required to perform the services we offer. We cannot assure you that we will be able to attract and retain sufficient numbers of these highly-skilled employees or to motivate them. Because of the complexity of the SCE market, we may experience a significant time lag between the date on which technical and sales personnel are hired and the time at which these persons become fully productive. FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR HARDWARE SALES MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT US. A portion of our revenue in any period is comprised of the resale of a variety of third-party hardware products to purchasers of our software. Our customers may choose to purchase this hardware directly from manufacturers or distributors of these products. We view sales of hardware as non-strategic. We perform this service to our customers seeking a single source for their supply chain execution needs. Hardware sales are difficult to forecast and fluctuate from quarter to quarter, leading to unusual comparisons of total revenue and fluctuations in profits. Revenue from hardware sales as a percentage of total revenue decreased in 2001 and 2002, and may

continue to decrease in the future. If we are not able to increase our revenue from software licenses and services or maintain our hardware revenue, our ability to maintain profitability may be adversely affected. OUR EMPLOYEE RETENTION AND HIRING MAY BE HINDERED BY IMMIGRATION RESTRICTIONS. A number of our employees are Indian nationals employed pursuant to non-immigrant work-permitted visas issued by the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service, or INS. We are anticipating many changes within the INS as a result of the events of September 11, 2001. We do not know how such changes may affect us. There is a limit on the number of new visas issued by the INS each year. In years in which this limit is reached, we may be unable to retain or hire additional foreign employees. The federal government may in the future further restrict the issuance of new visas. If we are unable to retain or hire additional foreign employees, we may incur additional labor costs and expenses or not have sufficient qualified personnel to carry on our business, which could harm our ability to successfully continue and grow our business. OUR BUSINESS AND OUR PROFITABILITY MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF WE CANNOT INTEGRATE ACQUIRED COMPANIES. We acquired Intrepa, L.L.C. in October 2000 and Logistics.com, Inc. in December 2002. We may from time to time acquire companies with complementary products and services. These acquisitions will continue to expose us to increased risks and costs, including the following: o difficulties in assimilating new operations and personnel; o diverting financial and management resources from existing operations; and o difficulties in integrating acquired technologies. We may not be able to generate sufficient revenue from any of these acquisitions to offset the associated acquisition costs. We will also be required to maintain uniform standards of quality and service, controls, procedures and policies. Our failure to achieve any of these standards may hurt relationships with customers, employees and new management personnel. In addition, future acquisitions may result in additional issuances of stock that could be dilutive to our shareholders. We may also evaluate joint venture relationships with complementary businesses. Any joint venture we enter into would involve many of the same risks posed by acquisitions, particularly the following: o risks associated with the diversion of resources; o the inability to generate sufficient revenue; o the management of relationships with third parties; and o potential additional expenses. Many acquisition candidates have significant intangible assets, and an acquisition of these businesses would likely result in significant amounts of goodwill and other intangible assets. Under new accounting rules, goodwill and certain other intangible assets will no longer be amortized to income, but will be subject to at least annual impairment reviews. If the acquisitions do not perform as planned, future charges to income arising from such impairment reviews could be significant. Likewise, future quarterly and annual earnings could be significantly adversely affected. In addition, these acquisitions could involve acquisition-related charges, such as one-time acquired research and development charges. The acquisitions of Intrepa and Logistics.com resulted in non-recurring, one-time charges of $3.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, in 2000 and 2002, respectively.

OUR GROWTH IS DEPENDENT UPON THE SUCCESSFUL DEVELOPMENT OF OUR DIRECT AND INDIRECT SALES CHANNELS. We believe that our future growth also will depend on developing and maintaining successful strategic relationships with systems integrators and other technology companies. Our strategy is to continue to increase the proportion of customers served through these indirect channels. We are currently investing, and plan to continue to invest, significant resources to develop these indirect channels. This investment could adversely affect our operating results if these efforts do not generate license and service revenue necessary to offset this investment. Also, our inability to partner with other technology companies and qualified systems integrators could adversely affect our results of operations. Because lower unit prices are typically charged on sales made through indirect channels, increased indirect sales could reduce our average selling prices and result in lower gross margins. In addition, sales of our products through indirect channels will reduce our consulting service revenues, as the third-party systems integrators provide these services. As indirect sales increase, our direct contact with our customer base will decrease, and we may have more difficulty accurately forecasting sales, evaluating customer satisfaction and recognizing emerging customer requirements. In addition, these systems integrators and third-party software providers may develop, acquire or market products competitive with our products. Our strategy of marketing our products directly to customers and indirectly through systems integrators and other technology companies may result in distribution channel conflicts. Our direct sales efforts may compete with those of our indirect channels and, to the extent different systems integrators target the same customers, systems integrators may also come into conflict with each other. Any channel conflicts that develop may have a material adverse effect on our relationships with systems integrators or harm our ability to attract new systems integrators. OUR INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS HAVE MANY ASSOCIATED RISKS. We continue to expand our international operations, and these efforts require significant management attention and financial resources. We may not be able to successfully penetrate international markets or if we do, there can be no assurance that we will grow these markets at the same rate as in North America. Because of the complex nature of this expansion, it may adversely affect our business and operating results. In 2002, we opened new offices in Germany, France, Australia, India and Japan. These openings constituted a substantial expansion of our international presence, which, prior to 2002, consisted principally of offices in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. We have committed resources to the opening and integration of international sales offices and the expansion of international sales and support channels. Our efforts to develop and expand international sales and support channels may not be successful. International sales are subject to many risks, including the following: - - difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations; - - difficulties in managing international systems integrators; - - difficulties and expenses associated with complying with a variety of foreign laws; - - difficulties in producing localized versions of our products; - - import and export restrictions and tariffs; - - difficulties in collecting accounts receivable; - - unexpected changes in regulatory requirements; - - currency fluctuations; and - - political and economic instability abroad.

Seasonal fluctuations may arise from the lower sales that typically occur during the summer months in Europe and other parts of the world. Additionally, our moves into other geographical markets may give rise to greater foreign currency exchange risk, in addition to further concentration of risk in Europe. OUR TECHNOLOGY MUST BE ADVANCED IF WE ARE TO REMAIN COMPETITIVE. The market for our products is characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions and enhancements, changes in customer demands and evolving industry standards. Our existing products could be rendered obsolete if we fail to continue to advance our technology. We have also found that the technological life cycles of our products are difficult to estimate, partially because of changing demands of other participants in the supply chain. We believe that our future success will depend upon our ability to continue to enhance our current product line while we concurrently develop and introduce new products that keep pace with competitive and technological developments. These developments require us to continue to make substantial product development investments. Although we are presently developing a number of product enhancements to our product sets, we cannot assure you that these enhancements will be completed on a timely basis or gain customer acceptance. OUR LIABILITY TO CLIENTS MAY BE SUBSTANTIAL IF OUR SYSTEMS FAIL. Our products are often critical to the operations of our customers' businesses and provide benefits that may be difficult to quantify. If our products fail to function as required, we may be subject to claims for substantial damages. Courts may not enforce provisions in our contracts that would limit our liability or otherwise protect us from liability for damages. Although we maintain general liability insurance coverage, including coverage for errors or omissions, this coverage may not continue to be available on reasonable terms or in sufficient amounts to cover claims against us. In addition, our insurer may disclaim coverage as to any future claim. If claims exceeding the available insurance coverage are successfully asserted against us, or our insurer imposes premium increases, large deductibles or co-insurance requirements on us, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected. OUR SOFTWARE MAY CONTAIN UNDETECTED ERRORS OR "BUGS," RESULTING IN HARM TO OUR REPUTATION AND OPERATING RESULTS. Software products as complex as those offered by us might contain undetected errors or failures when first introduced or when new versions are released. We cannot assure you, despite testing by us and by current and prospective customers, that errors will not be found in new products or product enhancements after commercial release. Any errors found may cause substantial harm to our reputation and result in additional unplanned expenses to remedy any defects as well as a loss in revenue. OUR FAILURE TO ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR PROPRIETARY RIGHTS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT US. Our success and ability to compete is dependent in part upon our proprietary technology. We cannot assure you that we will be able to protect our proprietary rights against unauthorized third-party copying or use. We rely on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality agreements and licensing arrangements, to establish and protect our proprietary rights. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, existing copyright, trademark and trade secret laws afford only limited protection. In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries do not protect our rights to the same extent, as do the laws of the United States. Attempts may be made to copy or reverse engineer aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Any infringement of our proprietary rights could negatively impact our future operating results. Furthermore, policing the unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could negatively impact our future operating results. OUR LIABILITY FOR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CLAIMS CAN BE COSTLY AND RESULT IN THE LOSS OF SIGNIFICANT RIGHTS. It is possible that third parties will claim that we have infringed their current or future products. We expect that SCE software developers like us will increasingly be subject to infringement claims as the number of products

grows. Any claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, any of which could negatively impact our operating results. We cannot assure you that these royalty or licensing agreements, if required, would be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. We cannot assure you that legal action claiming patent infringement will not be commenced against us, or that we would prevail in litigation given the complex technical issues and inherent uncertainties in patent litigation. If a patent claim against us was successful and we could not obtain a license on acceptable terms or license a substitute technology or redesign to avoid infringement, we may be prevented from distributing our software or required to incur significant expense and delay in developing non-infringing software. OUR BUSINESS AFFAIRS AND OUR COMPANY MAY BE INFLUENCED BY A FEW EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS. Our directors, executive officers and key employees together control approximately 19.8% of our outstanding common stock. In particular, Alan J. Dabbiere, the Chairman of the Board, controls approximately 15.2% of our common stock. As a result, these shareholders, if they act together, are able to influence the management and affairs of our company and all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company and might affect the market price of the common stock. OUR BUSINESS MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL. We may require additional capital to finance our growth or to fund acquisitions or investments in complementary businesses, technologies or product lines. Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, including: o demand for our products; o the timing of and extent to which we invest in new technology; o the level and timing of revenue; o the expenses of sales and marketing and new product development; o the success and related expense of increasing our brand awareness; o the extent to which competitors are successful in developing new products and increasing their market share; and o the costs involved in maintaining and enforcing intellectual property rights. To the extent that our resources are insufficient to fund our future activities, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private financing. However, additional funding, if needed, may not be available on terms attractive to us, or at all. Our inability to raise capital when needed could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities, the percentage ownership of our company by our current shareholders would be diluted. OUR STOCK PRICE HAS BEEN HIGHLY VOLATILE. The trading price of our common stock has fluctuated significantly since our initial public offering in April 1998. In addition, the trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, including: o quarterly variations in operating results; o announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors;

o developments with respect to patents or proprietary rights; and o changes in financial estimates by securities analysts. In addition, the stock market has experienced volatility that has particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of many technology companies and that often has been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS AND GEORGIA LAW MAY INHIBIT A TAKEOVER OF OUR COMPANY. Our basic corporate documents and Georgia law contain provisions that might enable our management to resist a takeover of our company. These provisions might discourage, delay or prevent a change in the control of our company or a change in our management. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for you and other shareholders to elect directors and take other corporate actions. The existence of these provisions could also limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.
