OVERVIEW
IntelliQuest Information Group, Inc. (the "Company") is a leading
provider of information, technologies, and analysis services that are
designed to improve the marketing performance of technology companies. The
Company provides timely, objective, accurate and cost-effective information
about technology markets, customers and products on both a subscription basis
and a proprietary project basis. The Company also licenses custom proprietary
software applications and associated services to technology manufacturers for
customer registration.
The Company's continuous services are composed of renewable
subscription-based products as well as renewable proprietary products and
conferences. The Company's renewable subscription-based product revenues are
substantially derived from three product families: IntelliTrack IQ, the
Computer Industry Media Study ("CIMS") and Internet-related products.
IntelliTrack IQ is a collection of fifteen distinct product modules covering
a variety of technologies and geographic markets, which targets all relevant
customer segments including non-users as well as users. CIMS is an annual
study that measures the readership and viewership habits of technology
purchase influencers. Internet-related products include a variety of reports
and subscription-based services providing information related to the Internet
and Intranet markets based upon quantitative data and market observations.
The Company's renewable proprietary product revenues typically consist of
revenues from proprietary recurring tracking studies and customer management
products. The proprietary recurring tracking studies provide the customer
with longitudinal information for tracking designated metrics over a
continuous period of time. Revenues from the customer management products
are derived from a variety of sources including proprietary customer
registration products and proprietary customer satisfaction products. The
Company hosts various conferences which provide forums for presentation and
discussion of technology related issues.
The Company's other revenues are derived from nonrecurring proprietary
research and other nonrecurring revenue. Traditional proprietary project
research provides customized information to customers utilizing a variety of
proprietary models, research techniques and data collection methods.
In February 1997, the Company acquired Zona Research, Inc. ("Zona"), a
privately held company that provides in-depth analysis and assessment of the
Internet and Intranet markets based upon factual market data and
observations. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests;
thus the Company's results of operations as discussed herein include those of
Zona, and all periods presented have been restated.
