Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Manhattan Associates, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or “Manhattan”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information, with the instructions to Form 10-Q and with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position at June 30, 2023, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other interim period. These statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when we transfer control of the promised products or services to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services. We derive our revenue from cloud subscriptions, software licenses, customer support services and software enhancements (“maintenance”), implementation and training services, and sales of hardware. We exclude sales and usage-based taxes from revenue.

Nature of Products and Services

Cloud subscriptions includes software as a service (SaaS) and arrangements which provide customers with the right to use our software within a cloud environment that we provide and manage, where the customer does not have the right to take possession of the software without significant penalty. SaaS and hosting revenues are recognized ratably over the contract period.

For contracts that include a perpetual license and hosting services, we generally consider the arrangement as an overall service, recognized over the initial hosting term. The software license fee typically due at the outset of the arrangement is not payable again if the customer renews the hosting services, so that the customer’s option to renew the hosting services is a material right, the revenue from which, if the option is exercised, we will recognize over the applicable renewal period. Managed services account for less than 2% of our Cloud subscription contracts.

Our perpetual software licenses provide the customer with a right to use the software as it exists at the time of purchase. We recognize revenue for distinct software licenses once the license period has begun and we have made the software available to the customer. Our perpetual software licenses are typically sold with maintenance under which we provide a comprehensive 24 hours per day, 365 days per year program that provides customers with software upgrades, when and if available, which include additional or improved functionality and technological advances incorporating emerging supply chain and industry initiatives. Revenue related to maintenance is generally paid in advance and recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically twelve months. Perpetual software license revenue accounts for approximately 2% of total revenue.

Our services revenue consists of fees generated from implementation, training, and application managed services, including reimbursements of out-of-pocket expenses in connection with our implementation services. Implementation services include system planning, design, configuration, testing, and other software implementation support, and are typically optional and distinct from our software. Following implementation, customers who have purchased perpetual licenses may purchase application managed services to support and maintain our software. Fees for our services are separately priced and are generally billed on an hourly basis, and revenue is recognized over time as the services are performed. In certain situations, we render professional services under agreements based upon a fixed fee for portions of or all of the engagement. Revenue related to fixed-fee-based services contracts is recognized over time based on the proportion performed.

As part of a complete solution, our customers periodically purchase hardware products developed and manufactured by third parties from us for use with the software licenses purchased from us. These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, radio frequency identification (RFID) chip readers, bar code printers and scanners, and other peripherals. As we do not physically control the hardware that we sell, we are acting as an agent in the transaction and recognize our hardware revenue net of related cost. We recognize hardware revenue when control is transferred to the customer upon shipment.

Significant Judgments

Our customer contracts include the sale of multiple SaaS services or licensed products. Judgement is required to determine whether each service or product sold is a distinct performance obligation that should be accounted for separately. We allocate the transaction price to the distinct performance obligations based on relative standalone selling price (“SSP”). We estimate SSP based on the prices we charge our customers or by using other information such as market conditions and other observable inputs. However, the selling price of our software licenses is highly variable. Thus, we estimate SSP for software licenses using the residual approach, determined based on total transaction price less the SSP of other goods and services promised in the contract.

Contract Balances

Timing of invoicing to customers may differ from timing of revenue recognition. Payment terms for our software licenses vary. We have an established history of collecting under the terms of our software license contracts without providing refunds or concessions to our customers. Cloud subscriptions and maintenance are typically billed annually in advance. We typically bill our professional services monthly as performed. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, we have determined that our contracts generally do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of our invoicing terms is to provide customers with predictable ways to purchase our software and services, not to provide or receive financing. Additionally, we are applying the practical expedient to exclude from consideration any contracts with payment terms of one year or less as we rarely offer terms extending beyond one year or invoice more than a year in advance.

Deferred revenue mainly represents amounts collected prior to having completed performance of cloud subscriptions, maintenance, and professional services. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $59.4 million and $142.7 million of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2022. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $89.4 million of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of March 31, 2023.

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of June 30, 2023, approximately $1.2 billion of revenue, approximately 98% of which is cloud-native subscriptions, is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations (“RPO”) with a non-cancelable term greater than 1 year (including deferred revenue as well as amounts that are expected to be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods). We expect to recognize revenue on approximately 40% of these remaining performance obligations over the next 24 months with the balance recognized thereafter. We have elected not to provide disclosures regarding remaining performance obligations for contracts with a term of 1 year or less.

Returns and Allowances

We have not experienced significant returns or warranty claims to date and, as a result, have not recorded a provision for the cost of returns and product warranty claims.

We record an allowance for credit losses based on historical experience of write-offs and a detailed assessment of accounts receivable. Additions to the allowance for credit losses generally represent a sales allowance on services revenue, which are recorded to operations as a reduction to services revenue. The total amount charged to operations was $0.7 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $1.2 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Our analysis involved utilizing a model of internal historical losses data. In estimating the allowance for credit losses, we considered the age of the accounts receivable, our historical write-offs, and the historical creditworthiness of the customer, among other factors. Should any of these factors change, the estimates made by us will also change accordingly, which could affect the level of our future allowances. We also analyzed future expected credit losses given ever present changes to future risks in projected economic conditions and future risks of customer collection.

Deferred Commissions

We consider sales commissions to be incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. We defer and recognize an asset for sales commissions related to performance obligations with an expected period of benefit of more than one year. We apply the practical expedient to expense sales commissions when the amortization period would have been one year or less. Deferred commissions were $35.1 million as of June 30, 2023, of which $26.2 million is included in other assets and $8.9 million is included in prepaid expenses. Sales commission expense is included in Sales and Marketing expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Amortization of sales commissions was $2.3 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $4.6 million and $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. No impairment losses were recognized during the periods.

Fair Value Measurement

We measure our investments based on a fair value hierarchy disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of asset or liability and its characteristics. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows:

•

Level 1–Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments.

•

Level 2–Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

•

Level 3–Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

Investments with maturities of 90 days or less from the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents; investments with maturities of greater than 90 days from the date of purchase but less than one year are generally classified as short-term investments; and investments with maturities of one year or greater from the date of purchase are generally classified as long-term investments. 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 determined on a specific identification basis.

At June 30, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents were $70.4 million and $82.9 million, respectively. We had neither short-term investments nor long-term investments at June 30, 2023. Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid money market funds. For money market funds, we use quoted prices from active markets that are classified at Level 1, the highest level of observable input in the disclosure hierarchy framework. We had no investments classified at Level 2 or Level 3 at June 30, 2023.

Equity-Based Compensation

We granted 11,107 and 23,923 restricted stock units (RSUs) during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and granted 581,333 and 677,129 RSUs during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Equity-based compensation expense related to RSUs was $17.9 million and $15.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $34.6 million and $29.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

We present below a summary of changes during the six months ended June 30, 2023 in our unvested units of restricted stock:


	Number of shares/units
Outstanding at December 31, 2022		1,427,831
Granted		581,333
Vested		(585,357	)
Forfeited		(10,608	)
Outstanding at June 30, 2023		1,413,199

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate was 23.1% and 22.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 20.6% and 17.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for three months ended June 30, 2023 is due to a decrease of favorable tax contingency reserve settlements. The increase in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 is due to a net decrease of excess tax benefits on restricted stock vesting and a decrease of favorable tax contingency reserve settlements.

We apply the provisions for income taxes related to, among other things, accounting for uncertain tax positions and disclosure requirements in accordance with Accounting Standards Classification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, our uncertain tax positions decreased by a net $0.3 million due to the settlement of a tax contingency reserve.

We conduct business globally and, as a result, file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, Manhattan is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal, substantially all state and local income tax examinations and substantially all non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 2010.

Under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, we are subject to a 1% excise tax on stock repurchases, net of stock issuances, beginning in 2023. We have included the tax in the cost of our stock repurchases as a reduction of shareholders' equity.

Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Share

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.

In the following table, we present a reconciliation of earnings per share and the shares used in the computation of earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands, except per share data):

Contingencies

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of the ordinary course of business, and occasionally legal proceedings not in the ordinary course. Many of our installations involve products that are critical to the operations of our clients’ businesses. Any failure in one of our products could result in a claim for substantial damages against us, regardless of our responsibility for such failure. Although we attempt to limit contractually our liability for damages arising from product failures or negligent acts or omissions, there can be no assurance that the limitations of liability set forth in our contracts will be enforceable in all instances. We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business or other legal proceedings the result of which we believe is likely to have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. We expense legal costs associated with loss contingencies as such legal costs are incurred.

Reportable Segments

We manage our business by geographic region and have three geographic reportable segments: North and Latin America (the “Americas”); Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA); and Asia Pacific (APAC). All segments derive revenue from the sale and implementation of our supply chain commerce solutions. The individual products sold by the segments are similar in nature and are all designed to help companies manage the effectiveness and efficiency of their supply chain commerce. We use the same accounting policies for each reportable segment. The chief operating decision maker evaluates performance based on revenue and operating results for each reportable segment.

The Americas segment charges royalty fees to the other segments based on software licenses and cloud subscriptions sold by those reportable segments. The royalties, which totaled approximately $3.1 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $6.5 million and $4.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, are included in costs of revenue for each segment with a corresponding reduction in the Americas segment’s cost of revenue. The revenues represented below are from external customers only. The geography-based costs consist of costs for professional services personnel, direct sales and marketing expenses, infrastructure costs to support the employee and customer base, billing and financial systems, management and general and administrative support. Certain corporate expenses included in the Americas segment are not charged to the other segments. Such expenses include research and development, certain marketing and general and administrative costs that support the global organization, and the amortization of acquired developed technology. Costs in the Americas segment include all research and development costs, including the costs associated with our operations in India.

In accordance with the segment reporting topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, we present below certain financial information by reportable segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands):

Cloud subscriptions revenue primarily relates to our Manhattan Active omnichannel, warehouse management solutions, and transportation management solutions for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The majority of our software license revenue (over 75%) relates to our warehouse management product group for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

At June 30, 2023, total assets for the Americas, EMEA and APAC segments were $424.1 million, $83.0 million and $19.9 million, respectively.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, including the notes to those statements, included elsewhere in this quarterly report. We also recommend the following discussion be read in conjunction with management’s discussion and analysis and consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Statements in the following discussion that are not statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements.” Actual results may differ materially from the results predicted in such forward-looking statements, for a variety of factors. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.

References in this filing to the “Company,” “Manhattan,” “Manhattan Associates,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Manhattan Associates, Inc., our predecessors, and our wholly owned and consolidated subsidiaries.

Business Overview

We develop, sell, deploy, service and maintain software solutions designed to manage Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain, inventory and omnichannel operations for retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers, logistics providers and other organizations. Our customers include many of the world’s most premier and profitable brands.

Our business model is singularly focused on the development and implementation of complex commerce enablement software solutions that are designed to optimize supply chains, and retail store operations including point-of-sale effectiveness and efficiency for our customers.

We have five principal sources of revenue:

•

cloud subscriptions, including software as a service (SaaS) and hosting of software;

•

licenses of our software;

•

customer support services and software enhancements (collectively, “maintenance”);

•

professional services, including solutions planning and implementation, related consulting, customer training, and reimbursements from customers for out-of-pocket expenses (collectively, “services”); and

•

hardware sales.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we generated $231.0 million and $452.0 million in total revenue, respectively. The revenue mix for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was: cloud subscriptions 26%; software license 2%; maintenance 16%; services 54%; and hardware 2%. The revenue mix for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was: cloud subscriptions 26%; software license 2%; maintenance 16%; services 53%; and hardware 3%.

We have three geographic reportable segments: North and Latin America (the “Americas”), Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and Asia-Pacific (APAC). Geographic revenue is based on the location of the sale. Our international revenue was approximately $76.3 million and $149.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, which represents approximately 33% of our total revenue for both three and six months ended June 30, 2023. International revenue includes all revenue derived from sales to customers outside the United States. At June 30, 2023, we employed approximately 4,500 employees worldwide. We have offices in Australia, Chile, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Singapore, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as representatives in Mexico and reseller partnerships in Latin America, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, South Africa, and Asia.

Future Expectations

While we remain cautious about the global economy, our results for the first six months of 2023 exceeded our expectations due to solid demand for our cloud solutions. Our solutions are mission critical, supporting complex global supply chains. We believe that favorable secular tailwinds, such as the digital transformation of businesses in manufacturing, wholesale and retail, coupled with our commitment to investing in organic innovation to deliver leading cloud supply chain, inventory and omnichannel commerce solutions is in synergistic alignment with current market demand. We believe that this alignment is contributing to our strong financial results, higher demand and strong win rates for our solutions for the period.

We remain committed to investing in our business to drive customer success and expand our total addressable market, which we believe will position us well to achieve long-term sustainable growth and earnings. We have taken steps to best ensure the health and safety of our employees globally. Our daily execution is a hybrid (office and virtual) model, and we continue to find innovative ways to engage with employees, customers and prospects, ensuring that they are supported.

Going forward, we are investing in our cloud business, including enterprise investments in innovation, and strategic operating expenses to support growth objectives. The pace at which the market adopts our cloud subscriptions, resulting in revenue recognition spread out over the subscription period rather than up front, combined with extended lead times for developing new business, can cause uncertainty, impacting our ability to accurately forecast bookings and revenues from quarter to quarter and over the longer term.

For the remainder of 2023, our five strategic goals remain to:

•

Focus on employees, customer success and drive sustainable long-term growth;

•

Invest in innovation to expand our products and total addressable market;

•

Expand our Manhattan Active Suite of Cloud Solutions;

•

Develop and grow our cloud business and cloud subscription revenue; and

•

Expand our global sales and marketing teams.

Cloud Subscription

In 2017, we released Manhattan Active™ Solutions, accelerating our business transition to cloud subscriptions. Under a cloud subscription, customers pay a periodic fee for the right to use our software within a cloud environment that we provide and manage over a specified period of time. As part of our subscription program, we allow our existing customers to convert their maintenance contracts to cloud subscription contracts.

In the sixth year of our cloud transition, demand for our cloud solutions is the dominant preference of customers. Cloud solutions are our fastest growing revenue line and represents 93% of total software revenue in the first six months of 2023. We believe the reduction in license and maintenance revenue in favor of our cloud offerings is positive for our customers and Manhattan Associates.

Global Economic Trends and Industry Factors

Global macro-economic trends, technology spending, and supply chain management market growth are important barometers for our business. In both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, approximately 67% of our total revenue was generated in the United States, 18% in EMEA, and the remaining balance in APAC, Canada, and Latin America. In addition, Gartner Inc. (“Gartner”), an information technology research and advisory company, estimates that nearly 75% of every supply chain software solutions dollar invested is spent in North America and Western Europe; consequently, the health of the U.S. and the Western European economies have a meaningful impact on our financial results.

We sell technology-based solutions with total pricing, including software and services, in many cases exceeding $1.0 million. Our software is often a part of our customers’ and prospects’ much larger capital commitment associated with facilities expansion and business improvement. We believe that, given the mission critical nature of our software, combined with a challenging global macro environment, our current sales cycles for large cloud subscriptions in our target markets could be extended. While demand for our solutions is solid, the current business climate within the United States and geographic regions in which we operate may affect customers’ and prospects’ decisions regarding timing of strategic capital expenditures.

While we are encouraged by our results, we remain cautious regarding the pace of global economic growth. We believe global geopolitical and economic volatility likely will continue to shape customers’ and prospects’ enterprise software buying decisions.

Revenue

Cloud Subscriptions and Software License Revenue. Cloud subscriptions revenue and remaining performance obligation (“RPO”) growth are the leading indicators of our business performance, primarily derived from cloud native subscription fees that customers pay for our Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain solutions.

In the six months ended June 30, 2023, cloud subscriptions revenue was 93% of total cloud and software license revenue. RPO increased 38% over prior year on strong demand. As of June 30, 2023, approximately $1.2 billion of revenue, 98% of which is cloud native subscriptions, is expected to be recognized from RPO with a non-cancelable term greater than 1 year (including deferred revenue as well as amounts that are expected to be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods).

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, cloud subscriptions revenue totaled $60.9 million or 26% of total revenues. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, cloud subscriptions revenue totaled $118.2 million or 26% of total revenues. Cloud subscriptions revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically five years and more. Cloud subscription revenue growth is influenced by the strength of general economic and business conditions and the competitive position of our software products. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, software license revenue totaled $3.7 million, or 2% of total revenue. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, software license revenue totaled $9.1 million or 2% of total revenue.

Our Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain solutions are focused on core omnichannel operation (e-commerce, retail store operations and point-of-sale), supply chain commerce operations (Warehouse Management, Transportation Management and Labor Management), and Inventory Optimization, which are intensely competitive markets characterized by rapid technological change. We are a market leader in the supply chain management and omnichannel software solutions market as defined by industry analysts such as ARC Advisory Group and Gartner. Our goal is to extend our position as a leading global supply chain

solutions provider by growing our cloud subscriptions and software license revenues faster than our competitors through investment in innovation.

Maintenance Revenue. Our maintenance revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 totaled $35.8 million, or 16% of total revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, maintenance revenue totaled $71.5 million or 16% of total revenue. For maintenance, we offer a comprehensive 24 hours per day, 365 days per year program that provides our perpetual software license customers with software upgrades, when and if available, which include additional or improved functionality and technological advances incorporating emerging supply chain and industry initiatives.

Maintenance revenue is influenced by: (1) the amount of new software license revenue; (2) annual renewal of support contracts; (3) increase in customers through acquisitions; (4) fluctuations in currency rates; and (5) conversion of maintenance contracts to cloud subscription contracts. Substantially all of our customers renew their annual support contracts. Maintenance revenue is generally paid in advance and recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically twelve months. Maintenance renewal revenue is recognized over the renewal period once we have a contract upon payment from the customer.

Services Revenue. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, our services revenue totaled $124.6 million, or 54% of total revenue. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, our services revenue totaled $240.8 million, or 53% of total revenue.

Our professional services organization provides 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 our professional services enable customers to implement our software rapidly, ensure the customer’s success with our solutions, strengthen our customer relationships, and add to our industry-specific knowledge base for use in future implementations and product innovations.

Services revenue growth is contingent upon cloud sales and customer upgrade cycles, which are influenced by the strength of general economic and business conditions and the competitive position of our software products. In addition, our professional services business has competitive exposure to offshore providers and other consulting companies.

Hardware Revenue. Our hardware revenue, which we recognize net of related costs, totaled $5.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023 representing 2% of total revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, hardware revenue totaled $12.5 million, or 3% of total revenue. In conjunction with the licensing of our software, and as a convenience for our customers, we resell a variety of hardware products developed and manufactured by third parties. These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, RFID chip readers, bar code printers and scanners, and other peripherals.

Product Development

We continue to invest significantly in research and development (R&D) to provide leading Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain solutions to enable global retailers, manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and logistics providers to successfully manage accelerating and fluctuating demands as well as the increasing complexity and volatility of their local and global supply chains, retail store operations and points of sale. Our R&D expenses were $31.6 million and $62.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

We expect to continue to focus our R&D resources on the development and enhancement of our core supply chain, inventory optimization, omnichannel and point-of-sale software solutions. We offer what we believe to be the broadest solutions portfolio in the supply chain solutions marketplace, addressing all aspects of inventory optimization, transportation management, distribution management, planning, and omnichannel operations including order management, store inventory & fulfillment, call center and point-of-sale.

We also plan to continue to enhance our existing solutions and to introduce new solutions to address evolving industry standards and market needs. We identify opportunities to further enhance our solutions and to develop and provide new solutions through our customer support organization, as well as through ongoing customer consulting engagements and implementations, interactions with our user groups, association with leading industry analysts and market research firms, and participation in industry standards and research committees. Our solutions address the needs of customers in various vertical markets, including retail, consumer goods, food and grocery, logistics service providers, industrial and wholesale, high technology and electronics, life sciences, and government.

Cash Flow and Financial Condition

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we generated cash flow from operating activities of $40.6 million and $99.3 million, respectively. Our cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2023 totaled $153.3 million, with no debt on our balance sheet. We currently have no credit facilities. Our primary uses of cash have been for funding investments in R&D in our Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain solutions to drive revenue and earnings growth. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased approximately $140.9 million of Manhattan Associates’ outstanding common stock under the share repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors. In July 2023, our Board of Directors approved replenishing the Company’s remaining share repurchase authority to an aggregate of $75.0 million of our common stock.

For the remainder of 2023, we expect our first priority for use of cash will continue to be investments in our Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain solutions. We also expect to prioritize capital allocation in our global teams to fund growth, and share repurchases. We do not anticipate any borrowing requirements in 2023 for general corporate purposes.

We have three geographic reportable segments: the Americas, EMEA, and APAC. Geographic revenue information is based on the location of sale. The revenues represented below are from external customers only. The geography-based expenses include costs of personnel, direct sales, marketing expenses, and general and administrative costs to support the business. There are certain corporate expenses included in the Americas segment that we do not charge to the other segments, including R&D, certain marketing and general and administrative costs that support the global organization, and the amortization of acquired developed technology. Included in the Americas costs are all R&D costs, including the costs associated with our operations in India. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we derived the majority of our revenues from sales to customers within our Americas segment.

Other income, net. Other income, net primarily includes interest income, foreign currency gains and losses, and other non-operating expenses.

Other Income and Income Taxes


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023		2022		% Change vs. Prior Year

Other income, net	$	1,184	$	2,981		-60	%
Income tax provision		20,341		12,789		59	%

Other income, net. Other income, net decreased $1.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a $4.1 million decrease in foreign currency gains partially offset by a $2.4 million increase in interest income. The decrease of foreign currency gains is mainly due to gains or losses on intercompany transactions denominated in foreign currencies with subsidiaries due to the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar relative to other foreign currencies, primarily the Indian Rupee. We recorded net foreign currency losses of $1.3 million in the first six months of 2023, and $2.8 million of net foreign currency gains in the first six months of 2022.

Income tax provision. Our effective income tax rate was 20.6% and 17.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 is due to a net decrease of excess tax benefits on restricted stock vesting and a decrease of favorable tax contingency reserve settlements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the first six months of 2023, we funded our business exclusively through cash generated from operations. Our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 included $92.1 million held in the U.S. and $61.2 million held by our foreign subsidiaries. We believe that our cash balances in the U.S. are sufficient to fund our U.S. operations. In the future, if we elect to repatriate the unremitted earnings of our foreign subsidiaries, we would not be subject to additional U.S. income taxes on such earnings, but we could be subject to additional local withholding taxes.

Cash flow from operating activities totaled $99.3 million and $84.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Typical factors affecting our cash provided by operating activities include our level of revenue and earnings for the period, the timing and amount of employee bonus and income tax payments, and the timing of cash collections from our customers which is our primary source of operating cash flow. Cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $14.8 million compared to the same period in the prior year, which is mainly due to earnings growth for the first six months of 2023, and the timing of cash collections from our customers.

Cash flow used in investing activities totaled $1.7 million and $2.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our investing activities for both the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 consisted of capital spending to support company growth.

Financing activities used cash of $169.1 million and $127.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The principal use of cash for financing activities in both periods was to purchase our common stock, including shares withheld for taxes due upon vesting of restricted stock. Repurchases of our common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 totaled $169.1 million and $127.8 million, respectively, including shares withheld for taxes of $28.2 million and $27.7 million, respectively.

Periodically, opportunities may arise to grow our business through the acquisition of complementary 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 our existing cash will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs at least for the next twelve months, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. We continue to focus on managing liquidity, while investing in and growing our headcount capacity to support our customers and grow our business. For the remainder of 2023, we anticipate that our priorities for use of cash will be similar to prior years, with our first priority being continued investment in product development and profitably investing in our business to extend our market leadership. We will continue to weigh our share repurchase options against cash for acquisitions and investing in the business. We will also continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities that are complementary to our product footprint and technology direction. At this time, we do not anticipate any borrowing requirements for the remainder of 2023 for general corporate purposes.

Aggregate Contractual Obligations

Our principal commitments consist of multiple non-cancellable contracts for cloud infrastructure services and obligations under operating leases. As of June 30, 2023, our cloud infrastructure obligations are approximately $129.9 million over the next 5 years. We also enter into non-cancellable subscriptions in the ordinary course of business for internal software to support our operations. Our obligations, as of June 30, 2023, are approximately $18.7 million over the next 5 years. We expect to fulfill all these commitments from our working capital.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, including any corrective actions with regard to material weaknesses.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, we may be a party to legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, and we could be a party to legal proceedings not in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently a party to any legal proceeding the result of which we believe could have a material adverse impact upon our business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Many of our product installations involve software products that are critical to the operations of our customers’ businesses. Any failure in our products could result in a claim for substantial damages against us, regardless of our responsibility for such failure. Although we attempt to contractually limit our liability for damages arising from product failures or negligent acts or omissions, there can be no assurance that the limitations of liability set forth in our contracts will be enforceable in all instances.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
