NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Basis Of Presentation
AXENT Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the
"Company" or "AXENT") develop, market, license and support enterprise-wide
information security solutions for client/server computing environments and
provide related services.
The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements have been restated to
reflect the acquisition of Internet Tools, Inc. ("ITI"), which was accounted for
as a pooling of interests and consummated on January 12, 1999, in accordance
with APB No. 16. AXENT's historical financial statements and related financial
information included in this report have been restated to combine earlier
financial statements of AXENT and ITI.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect
all the adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that, in the
opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for
the interim periods presented. The results for the three month period ended
March 31, 1999 may not necessarily be indicative of the results for the entire
year or any future period. The December 31, 1998 condensed consolidated balance
sheet was derived from audited financial statements as of the same date but does
not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
annual audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1998, which
are included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 1999.
Business Combinations
On March 31, 1999, the Company completed the acquisition of United Kingdom-based
CKS Limited, the parent of PassGO(TM) Technologies ("PassGo"). In conjunction
with the acquisition, the Company issued 1,486,146 shares of common stock to
holders of shares and warrants of CKS Limited and agreed to exchange stock
options to purchase 63,854 AXENT shares for all outstanding CKS Limited stock
options. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting and accordingly, the net assets of PassGo have been included in the
accompanying financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purchase
price, including transaction costs, was approximately $30.96 million. The
allocation of the purchase price was based on the results of an independent
third party valuation and allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed,
based on their respective fair values at the acquisition date. The purchase
price allocation resulted in goodwill and other intangibles of approximately
$28.31 million, which is being amortized, on a straight-line basis over their
useful lives, of between three and seven years. The Company anticipates
incurring amortization expense associated with the goodwill and other
intangibles of approximately $1.20 million per quarter, or approximately $4.80
million per year. The Company recorded a charge for acquired in-process research
and development of approximately $2.0 million for the three months ended March
31, 1999. The charge reflects technology acquired for which technological
feasibility has not been reached and for which there is no alternative future
use.
On January 12, 1999, the Company consummated its merger with ITI in which it
acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of ITI for 703,194 shares of AXENT common
stock and assumed stock options covering a total of 46,806 shares of AXENT
common stock. The Company incurred approximately $1.75 million in
acquisition-related transaction and other related costs in connection with the
merger. The business combination was accounted for by the pooling of interests
method of accounting and, accordingly, the assets, liabilities, and
stockholders' equity of ITI were combined with the Company's respective accounts
at recorded values. Prior period financial statements have been restated to give
effect to the merger.
On July 21, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of Secure Network
Consulting, Inc. ("SNCI"), a privately held information security consulting
firm. In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company issued 85,000 shares of
8
<PAGE>
common stock to SNCI's stockholders. The transaction was accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting. The purchase price, including transaction costs,
was $2.3 million. This amount exceeded the fair value of assets acquired by
approximately $2.1 million, which is being treated as goodwill and amortized, on
a straight-line basis, over seven years and is included in goodwill and other
intangible assets. The operating results of SNCI have been included in the
accompanying financial statements from the date of acquisition.
During 1998, the Company consummated its merger with Raptor in which it acquired
100% of the outstanding stock of Raptor for 10,952,380 shares of AXENT common
stock and exchanged stock options covering a total of 1,725,988 shares of AXENT
common stock. The Company incurred approximately $17.42 million in
acquisition-related transaction and other costs in connection with the merger.
The business combination was accounted for by the pooling of interests method of
accounting and, accordingly, the assets, liabilities, and stockholders' equity
of Raptor were combined with the Company's respective accounts at recorded
values. Prior period financial statements have been restated to give effect to
the merger.
Net Income Per Common Share
During 1997, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement
No. 128, "Earnings per Share," ("SFAS 128") to calculate net income per share.
Basic earnings per common share have been computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per share have been computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding plus an assumed increase in common
shares outstanding for dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities
consist of options and warrants to acquire common stock for a specified price
and their dilutive effect is measured using the treasury method. Potentially
dilutive securities are not included in the diluted earnings per share
calculations for the periods presented as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive
to the basic loss per share calculations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the "AICPA") issued SOP 98-1,
"Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for
Internal Use." SOP 98-1 became effective January 1, 1999. The Company adopted
SOP 98-1 on January 1, 1999.
In December 1998, the AICPA issued Statement of Position (SOP) 98-9,
"Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain
Transactions." SOP 98-9 modifies SOP 97-2 by requiring revenue to be recognized
using the "residual method" if certain conditions are met. SOP 98-9 will be
effective for the Company's 2000 financial statements. Management does not
believe that SOP 98-9 will have a material impact on the Company's results of
operations or financial condition.
Information Concerning Business Segments
In June 1997, SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information." SFAS No. 131 established standards for reporting
information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires
selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports
issued to stockholders. Operating segments are defined as components of an
enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is
evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making
group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
The Company's approach to information security is to develop, market and support
security software products that perform a broad range of security functions and
to provide consulting services to address customers' security needs. As such,
the Company has two reportable segments: a software product segment and a
consulting services segment. The software product segment includes products
which provide security assessment and policy management, host and network based
intrusion detection, systems and network access control, data confidentiality,
user administration, activity monitoring, secure authentication solutions for
remote network access and virtual private networking capabilities for remote
users and remote sites. The consulting services segment includes training and
"Lifecycle Security Services" designed to help organizations develop a framework
and roadmap for assessing potential
9
<PAGE>
vulnerabilities; developing security policies, guidelines, practices and
metrics; selecting and implementing solutions; conducting training; and ensuring
appropriate monitoring and compliance.
The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on income
before royalty, interest, taxes and gains on the sale of marketable securities.
Intersegment sales and transfers are not significant.
Summarized financial information concerning the Company's reportable segments is
shown in the following table. The "Other" column includes the consulting
services segment as it is below the quantitative thresholds, corporate related
items and, as it relates to segment profit(loss), income and expense not
allocated to reportable segments.

Subsequent Event
On May 12, 1999, a venture capital entity and a small former stockholder owning
a less than majority share of CKS Limited, the parent company of PassGo
Technologies, commenced an action in the Suffolk County Superior Court in
Boston, Massachusetts against AXENT and its directors. The action alleges
violations of the Massachusetts Uniform Securities Act, negligent
misrepresentations, and unfair trade practices. The Company believes the claims
are without merit and intends to defend the action vigorously.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 27A of the Securities Act of
1933, which involve risk and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are
identified by the use of the words "believes", "expects", "anticipates", "will",
"would" or similar expressions that contemplate future events. The Company's
actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the
forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include,
but are not limited to, those identified in "Certain Factors Affecting Future
Performance" (see below) and those discussed in the "Risk Factors" set forth in
the Company's Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement dated January 2, 1998, as filed
with the SEC on January 5, 1998. The Company assumes no obligation to update or
correct forward-looking statements due to events or changes after the date of
this report.
Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to
Three Months Ended March 31, 1998
Net Revenues
The Company's net revenues from product licenses decreased approximately 6.7%,
or $1.10 million, from $16.28 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998
to $15.19 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999. For those periods
in 1998 and 1999, net revenues from product licenses represented 80.1% and
70.8%, respectively, of total net revenues. The Company's revenues are subject
to a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to, the level
of demand for the Company's products, the volume and timing of customer orders,
many of which come at the end of a quarter; product and price competition; the
Company's ability to maintain and expand its domestic and international sales
and marketing organizations; the Company's ability to develop new and enhanced
products; the availability of personnel and the Company's ability to attract and
retain key personnel; the mix of distribution channels through which the
Company's products are sold; the extent to which unauthorized access and use of
online information is perceived as a threat to information security; customer
budgets and priorities; Year 2000 issues; seasonal trends in customer
purchasing; foreign currency exchange rates; general economic factors; and
risks associated with the rapid change in technology. In addition, the value of
individual transactions as a percentage of the Company's actual or anticipated
quarterly revenues can be substantial and the inability to close such
transactions may have a material adverse impact on the operating results of the
Company.
The Company's net revenues from services increased approximately 54.6%, or $2.21
million, from $4.05 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $6.26
million for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The increase in services
revenues is primarily attributable to the increases in implementation consulting
services, customer training courses and customers under maintenance contracts.
For those periods in 1998 and 1999, net revenues from services represented 19.9%
and 29.2%, respectively, of total net revenues.
The Company's net revenues from North American and international operations were
75% and 25% of total revenues, respectively, for the three months ended March
31, 1999 as compared to 82% and 18%, respectively, for the same period in 1998.
The increase in the international revenues as a percentage of total revenue from
1998 to 1999 is attributable to increased sales due to the expansion of the
Company's operations in European and Asian markets.
Cost Of Net Revenues
The Company's cost of net revenues includes cost of media, product packaging,
documentation and other production costs, amortization of purchased software
costs, product royalties, and the direct and indirect costs of providing
technical support, training and consulting services to the Company's customers.
Cost of net revenues increased approximately 55.5%, or $1.18 million, from $2.12
million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $3.29 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1999. For those periods in 1998 and 1999, cost of net
revenues represented 10.4% and 15.4% of net revenues, respectively. The
increase in the cost of net revenues is primarily attributable to the increase
in staff of the Company's customer support and consulting services operations
necessary
11
<PAGE>
to support a larger installed customer base as well as additional products
offered by the Company. The increase in the cost of net revenues as a percentage
of revenues is primarily attributable to the increased costs associated with
consulting services, which have lower margins. Cost of net revenues, as a
percentage of revenues, may fluctuate from period to period due to a change in
the mix of license revenues and consulting service revenues, a change in the
number or size of transactions recorded in a quarter, integration of acquired
operations or products, or an increase or decrease in licenses of royalty-
bearing products.
Sales And Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, including
commissions, salaries, benefits and bonuses, travel, telephone, costs of
advertising, public relations seminars and trade shows. Sales and marketing
expenses increased 49.4%, or $4.52 million, from $9.14 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 to $13.66 million for the three months ended March
31, 1999. For those periods in 1998 and 1999, sales and marketing expenses
represented 45.0% and 63.7% of total net revenues, respectively. The increase
in dollar amount was due to an increase in staff and marketing programs to
support the Company's sales and marketing activities. The increase in sales and
marketing expenses as a percentage of total net revenues was due primarily to
the decrease in license revenues in the first quarter of 1999. The Company
currently anticipates that the dollar amount of sales and marketing expenses
will increase as the Company continues to hire additional staff and expand its
marketing activities to promote expansion of the Company's business.
Research And Development
Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs,
including salaries, benefits and bonuses, travel and other personnel-related
expenses of the employees engaged in ongoing research and development projects
and third-party development contracts. Costs related to research and
development of products are expensed as incurred. Research and development
expenses increased 51.4%, or $2.14 million, from $4.16 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 to $6.29 million for the three months ended March
31, 1999. For those periods in 1998 and 1999, research and development expenses
represented 20.5% and 29.4% of total net revenues, respectively. The increase
in dollar amount resulted from the addition of staff and the use of outside
consultants needed to develop, maintain and enhance the Company's software
products. The increase as a percentage of total net revenues was a result of
the decline in license revenues. The Company currently anticipates that the
dollar amount of research and development expenses will increase as the Company
continues to commit substantial resources to research and development in future
periods.
General And Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs,
including salaries, benefits and bonuses and related costs for management,
finance and accounting, legal and other professional services. General and
administrative expenses increased 82.3%, or $1.22 million, from $1.48 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $2.70 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999. For those periods in 1998 and 1999, general and
administrative expenses represented 7.6% and 12.6% of total net revenues,
respectively. The increase in dollar amount is primarily a result of additional
staff and investments in corporate infrastructure and information systems needed
to support the Company's operations. This increase is also the result of
expenses incurred in connection with several uncompleted acquisitions in the
first quarter of 1999. The Company currently anticipates that the dollar amount
of general and administrative expenses will increase as the Company continues to
invest in the corporate infrastructure.

In the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company incurred charges of
approximately $1.75 million for legal and accounting fees and other costs
related to the merger with ITI, and approximately $2.00 million of in-process
research and development expense in connection with the acquisition of PassGo.
In the three months ended March 31, 1998, the Company incurred a charge of
$17.42 million, $13.3 million net of taxes, for severance, investment banking,
legal and accounting fees, and other costs related to the merger with Raptor.

Income (Loss) Before Royalties, Interest And Taxes
Loss from continuing operations before royalties, interest and taxes decreased
$5.74 million from a loss of $13.99 million for the three months ended March 31,
1998 to a loss of $8.26 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The
decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease in non-recurring charges
offset by increases in other operating expenses.
Royalty Income
Royalty income in 1998 consisted of amounts payable to AXENT pursuant to the
Exclusive Distributor License Agreement with Raxco Software, Inc. ("Raxco")
related to certain OpenVMS utility software products owned by AXENT. Raxco has
experienced declining revenues for these products as a result of the erosion of
market share that the OpenVMS platform has experienced world-wide. Royalty
income declined to zero from $569,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999
and 1998, respectively, as a result of the transfer of those products and all
related liabilities to Raxco and termination of the Exclusive Distributor
License Agreement.
Interest Income And Other
Interest income and other decreased 26%, or $384,000, from $1.45 million for the
three month period ended March 31, 1998 to $1.07 million for the three month
period ended March 31, 1999. The decrease is primarily attributable to the
decrease in the gain on the sale of marketable securities. Interest income and
other may fluctuate from period to period due to changes in investment mix,
varying cash balances and fluctuations in interest rates.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"). Under SFAS 109,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and their
respective tax basis. The Company's subsidiaries have a history of net operating
losses making the realization of its tax credit carryforwards uncertain.
Accordingly, the Company placed a partial valuation allowance against the
deferred tax assets of its subsidiaries.
The Company recorded a tax benefit related to its taxable loss from continuing
operations of $2.11 and $1.12 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and
1999, respectively.
Income (Loss)
As a result of the above, the Company recorded a loss of $6.07 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to a loss of $9.86 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1998.
Certain Risks And Uncertainties
- -------------------------------
Year 2000
The Company is assessing the impact of Year 2000 compliance on the current and
prior versions of its products, internal information systems, other internal
computer systems and equipment containing embedded systems, and is implementing
corrective actions, which are complete or substantially complete in many
instances. The Company is using an approach to Year 2000 compliance that
involves preparing an inventory of all business disruption problems that the
Company regards as reasonably possible, prioritizing those possible problems to
allocate appropriate resources to the most critical areas, remediating or
replacing systems and equipment to solve or mitigate Year 2000 problems and, if
necessary, developing contingency plans if the Company or its key distributors,
resellers and suppliers will not be Year 2000 compliant and such noncompliance
is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations.
13
<PAGE>
The Company is substantially complete in its process of assessing Year 2000
compliance of its software products. The Company believes that the current
version of each of its products has been designed and tested to process Year
2000 date data without interruption or error, and that the current version of
each of its product offerings is Year 2000 compliant assuming no error after
1999 in the operating system or other management software products operating on
the same computer system as the Company's product. The Company expects to
continue Year 2000 testing of the current and new versions of its products and
of any products it acquires or distributes.
The Company believes it has identified its equipment and systems that are
critical to its operations, such as communications and networking equipment,
related software and certain hardware and software systems, and has completed
its assessment of the Year 2000 compliance of substantially all of such
equipment and systems, although it is continuing to assess and test. The
Company also is continuing to assess and test the Year 2000 compliance of
various items of equipment, computer systems, applications software, and
equipment containing embedded systems that the Company does not consider
critical to its operations. The Company has replaced or is replacing several
internal information systems critical to its operations as part of its normal
development and expansion or salesforce automation, accounting and customer
service-related information systems. The Company has received product
warranties that those systems are Year 2000 compliant, and expects that
installation and Year 2000 testing will be completed by September 1999.
The Company is continuing to assess the Year 2000 compliance of systems used by
distributors, resellers and suppliers, whom the Company expects may be material
to its business after 1999. This assessment process generally consists of
obtaining completed questionnaires or written assurances regarding anticipated
Year 2000 compliance. The Company expects that this process will continue
through 1999.
The Company anticipates that costs to be incurred in Year 2000 testing and
remediation or replacement of noncompliant systems will not be material to its
financial condition or results of operations. The cost of continued testing of
the Company's products will be included in the Company's research and
development expenses, and testing of internal equipment, hardware and software
systems generally will be included in general and administrative expense.
Even with those efforts, there can be no assurance that undetected errors or
defects may not cause Year 2000 problems in the Company's products. The Company
provides limited warranties as to Year 2000 compliance on current versions of
its products, but the Company does not believe that it is legally responsible
otherwise for costs incurred by its customers in achieving Year 2000 compliance.
Year 2000 problems in or affecting the Company's products probably would result
in litigation and contractual claims by customers and increased expenses
negatively affecting the Company's future operating results. In the worst case,
litigation, claims and increased expenses could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition,
although the Company currently believes such a result to be unlikely. In
addition, Year 2000 problems in older versions of the Company's products may
result in increased expense levels for the Company and defocus in development of
new products and enhancement of existing products. The Company expects that
Year 2000 issues may alter the purchasing patterns of some of its customers or
prospective customers, which could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business and results of operations.
There also can be no assurance that equipment, hardware and software systems
used internally in the Company's business will be free of Year 2000 problems.
Failure of internal information systems, equipment or other vendors' software to
operate properly after 1999 could disrupt or interfere with the Company's
business and result in unanticipated expense, which could adversely affect the
Company's business, operating results and financial condition. Year 2000
problems experienced by distributors, resellers and suppliers of the Company may
result in disruption of the Company's business and may require the Company to
obtain alternative sources of distribution and supply, if possible.
The Company is developing certain contingency plans in the event of Year 2000
problems in its products, critical equipment, hardware and software systems and
equipment with embedded systems, or in the event that key distributors or
resellers or critical suppliers experience Year 2000 problems. The Company
expects to continue development and focus of those contingency plans throughout
1999.
14
<PAGE>
The foregoing statements are based upon management's best estimates at the
present time, which were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events
and conditions. There can be no assurance that these assumptions will be
accurate and that estimates will be achieved. The Company's evaluation and
assessment is ongoing and it expects that new or different information may
become available as its assessment and evaluation continue.
Euro Currency
The European Union's adoption of the Euro currency raises a variety of issues
associated with the Company's European operations. Although the transition from
national currencies to the Euro will be phased in over several years, the Euro
became the single currency for most European countries on January 1, 1999. The
Company is assessing Euro issues related to its treasury operations, product
pricing, contracts and accounting systems. Although the evaluation of these
issues is still in process, management currently believes that the Company's
existing or planned hardware and software systems will accommodate the
transition to the Euro and any required operating changes will not have a
material effect on future results of operations or financial condition.
Financial Condition-Liquidity and Capital Resources
- ----------------------------------------------------
The Company's overall cash and cash equivalents were $92.82 million at March 31,
1999, an increase of approximately $12.78 million from $80.04 million at
December 31, 1998. During the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and
1999, respectively, the Company financed its operations primarily through cash
reserves and available working capital. The Company's operating
activities used cash of $2.10 million and $465,000 for the three month periods
ended March 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively. Net cash used by operating
activities in the three months ended March 31, 1999 was primarily a result of
the payments for transaction related costs associated with the acquisitions of
Raptor and ITI.
The Company made capital expenditures of approximately $1.86 million and $1.68
million for the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively.
These purchases have generally consisted of computer workstations, networking
equipment, office furniture and equipment. The Company had no firm commitments
for capital expenditures as of March 31, 1999.
During the three month period ended March 31, 1999, the Company's cash position
was also affected by the following: 1) the Company had cash outlays of
approximately $448,000 and $1.06 million for transaction costs associated with
the acquisitions of Raptor and ITI, respectively; 2) the Company received
proceeds of $2.33 million from the issuance of common stock upon stock option
exercises and under its employee stock purchase plan; 3) the Company purchased
$1.78 million of marketable securities; 4) the Company received $14.52 million
from the maturity of short-term investments; and 5) the Company received
$227,000 for acquired cash offset by transaction costs related to the PassGo
business acquisition.
The Company believes that cash generated from operations, together with existing
sources of liquidity, will be sufficient to meet its capital expenditures,
working capital and other cash requirements for the next twelve months.
Certain Factors Affecting Future Performance
- --------------------------------------------
Factors Affecting the Company's Business and Prospects
Although the Company historically has experienced significant growth in revenues
from its software products, the Company does not believe prior growth rates and
past performance are necessarily indicative of future operating results. The
Company expects increased competition and intends to invest significantly in
product development, sales, marketing and administrative functions as it pursues
its business strategy. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Company
will be profitable on a quarterly or annual basis. Due to the Company's
relatively limited operating history with respect to many of its software
products, predictions as to future operating results are difficult. Future
operating results may fluctuate due to, but not limited to, factors such as:
demand for the Company's products; the size and timing of customer orders; the
number of competitors and the breadth and functionality of their product
offerings; the introduction of new products and product enhancements by the
Company or its competitors; the budgeting cycle of customers; changes in the
proportion of revenues attributable to license fees and consulting services; the
availability of services personnel to demonstrate, install, configure and
15
<PAGE>
implement products; seasonal trends in customer purchasing; changes in the level
of operating expenses; competitive conditions in the industry; and changes in
technologies affecting computing, networking, communications, systems and
applications management and data security.
The Company's future operating results and financial condition may also be
affected if it fails to recognize the anticipated benefits of its acquisitions
on the timetable projected by the Company. Those benefits include, among
others, integration of product offerings and coordination of their sales,
marketing and research and development teams without disruption or unanticipated
expense, elimination of duplicative functions and increased name and product
recognition. The Company's future results of operations and financial condition
may also be adversely affected if the anticipated integration of operations of
acquired companies produces unexpected expenses, delays, inefficiencies, loss of
key personnel, loss of resellers or distributors or loss of consultants or if it
leads to adverse effects on customer purchasing decisions.
The market for the Company's software products is highly competitive, and the
Company expects that it will face increasing pricing pressures from its current
competitors and new market entrants. As a result of increasing consolidation in
the information security industry, the Company expects that it will become
subject to increased competition, which may negatively impact existing
collaborative, marketing, reselling, distribution or marketing agreements or
relationships and thereby materially adversely affect the Company's financial
condition and results of operations. Any material reduction in the price of the
Company's software products would negatively affect gross margins and could
materially adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of
operations.
The licensing of many of the Company's software products generally involve
significant testing by and education of prospective customers as well as a
commitment of resources by both parties. For these and other reasons, the sales
cycle associated with the enterprise-wide licensing of the Company's security
software products is typically long and subject to a number of significant risks
over which the Company has little or no control and, as a result, may expend
significant resources pursuing potential sales that will not be consummated.
Many of the Company's operating expenses are based on anticipated revenue levels
and are fixed or cannot quickly be adjusted if the anticipated level of revenues
are not achieved. Therefore delays in the receipt of orders or the failure to
achieve the anticipated level of revenues can cause a significant variation in
the operating results of the Company from quarter to quarter. The Company also
may choose to increase spending in response to competition or to pursue new
market opportunities, which may significantly reduce its operating results.
Factors Affecting International Operations
The Company anticipates that international sales will continue to represent a
significant percentage of revenue in the foreseeable future. International
sales are subject to a number of risks, including unexpected changes in
regulatory requirements, export limitations on encryption technologies, import
restrictions, tariffs and other trade barriers, political and economic
instability in foreign markets, difficulty in the staffing, management and
integration of foreign operations, longer payment cycles, greater difficulty in
accounts receivable collection, currency fluctuations and potentially adverse
tax consequences. The uncertainty of the monetary exchange values has caused,
and may in the future cause, some foreign customers to delay new orders or delay
payment for existing orders. These factors may, in the future, contribute to
fluctuations in the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
Although the Company's results of operations have not been materially adversely
affected to date as a result of currency fluctuations, the long-term impact of
currency fluctuations, including any possible effect on the business outlook in
other developing countries, cannot be predicted.
Factors Affecting Marketable Securities
The fair value of the Company's investments in marketable securities at March
31, 1999 was $19.0 million. The Company's investment policy is to manage its
marketable securities portfolio to preserve principal and liquidity while
maximizing the return on the investment portfolio through the full investment of
available funds. The Company diversifies the marketable securities portfolio by
investing in multiple types of investment-grade securities. The Company's
marketable securities portfolio is primarily invested in short-term securities
with at least an investment grade rating to minimize interest rate and credit
risk as well as to provide for an immediate source of
16
<PAGE>
funds. Although changes in interest rates may affect the fair value of the
marketable securities portfolio and cause unrealized gains or losses, such gains
or losses would not be realized unless the investments are sold.

EXHIBIT 10.17A
FIRST AMENDMENT TO MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
AXENT Technologies, Inc. ("AXENT"), Richard A. Lefebvre and the Compensation
Committee of the AXENT Board of Directors, on behalf of the AXENT Board, have
entered into this First Amendment to Memorandum of Understanding ("Amendment")
on November 25, 1998 to amend the Memorandum of Understanding dated July 22,
1997 ("MOU") by and among them.
