NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Mobius
Management Systems, Inc. (the "Company") presented herein have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. These consolidated interim statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the
year ended June 30, 1997 and the six months ended December 31, 1997, included in
the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on April 27, 1998.
These financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) which management believes to be necessary for the fair
presentation of the financial position, results of operations and changes in
cash flow for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of
revenues and expenses during the reported period. Despite management's best
effort to establish good faith estimates and assumptions, actual results may
differ.
(2) Earnings Per Share
Effective December 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". SFAS No. 128
stipulates that the calculation of earnings per share (EPS) be shown for all
historical periods as Basic EPS and Diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by
dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of Diluted EPS
is similar to the computation of Basic EPS except that it gives effect to all
potentially dilutive instruments that were outstanding during the period. Such
dilutive instruments include stock options, the conversion of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock, and the conversion of the Class A Non-Voting Common
Stock.
The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators for the
basic and diluted EPS calculations (in thousands, except per share data):

(5) Common Stock
The Board of Directors authorized a 100-to-one stock split of the
Company's common stock. All common share and per share amounts have been
retroactively adjusted in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to
reflect the stock split.
<PAGE>
(6) Stock Incentive Plan
In January, February and March 1998 the Company granted 350,000, 370,000 and
53,000 stock options, respectively, under the 1996 Incentive Plan at an exercise
price of $9.86, $11.00 and $11.00 per share, respectively which were deemed by
the Board of Directors to be fair market values for the shares on these dates.
The Company subsequently determined that these options were granted at exercise
prices below the fair market value of $14.00 per share, the low end of the
Company's Initial Public Offering ("IPO") range. As a result, and assuming that
all such options vest in accordance with their terms, the Company expects to
incur total compensation expense of approximately $2,718,000, which will be
amortized over the respective option holders' service periods. For the three and
nine months ended March 31, 1998, $313,000 of compensation expense was
recognized.
(7) Initial Public Offering
In April 1998, the Company sold 2,500,000 shares of common stock at a price of
$14.50 per share in the IPO. The net proceeds to the Company were $33,112,500
after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses
payable by the Company. As a result of the IPO, the Company's outstanding Series
A Convertible Stock and Class A Non-Voting Common Stock were converted into an
aggregate of 4,171,000 shares of Common Stock.
(8) Pro forma Earnings Per Share (unaudited)
Pro forma basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing income
available to common stockholders by the pro forma weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the period. Pro forma diluted earnings per share
is calculated by dividing income available to common stockholders by the pro
forma weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares
outstanding for the period. Both the pro forma basic and diluted weighted
average shares include the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock and the Class A Non-Voting Common Stock into Common Stock. The following
is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators for the pro forma basic
and pro forma diluted EPS calculation (in thousands, except per share data):
Nine Months Ended
March 31, 1998
Net Per
Income Shares Share
(Numerator)(Denominator) Amount
Pro forma basic EPS:
Net income $2,619
======
Weighted average shares outstanding 10,909
Common shares expected to be issued for
conversion of Preferred Stock 4,091
Common shares expected to be issued for
conversion of Class A Non-Voting Common Stock 80

Pro forma basic EPS 15,080 $0.17
=====
Pro forma diluted EPS
Net income $2,619
======
Dilutive effect of stock options 1,241
------
Pro forma diluted EPS 16,321 $0.16
====== =====
If the assumed conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
and the Class A Non-Voting Common Stock into Common Stock had occurred as of
March 31, 1998, total stockholder's equity would have increased to $10,601,000.
The pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share giving effect to the
2,500,000 shares in the offering would be $0.14 for the nine months ended March
31, 1997 based on the pro forma basic and diluted weighted average shares
outstanding of 18,821,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997.

Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998
Revenues. Total revenues, consisting principally of software license
revenues and maintenance and other revenues, increased 38.3% from $9.3 million
in the first three months of fiscal 1997 to $12.9 million in the first three
months of fiscal 1998. Domestic revenues increased 40.3% from $8.4 million in
the first three months of fiscal 1997 to $11.8 million in the same period in
fiscal 1998. International revenues increased 20.3% from $946,000 in the
first three months of fiscal 1997 to $1.1 million in the same period in fiscal
1998.
Software license revenues increased 54.2% from $5.2 million in the
first three months of fiscal 1997 to $8.1 million in the comparable period of
fiscal 1998. The increase was primarily attributable to increased sales of the
ViewDirect and DocumentDirect products.
Maintenance and other revenues increased 17.8% from $4.1 million for
the first three months of fiscal 1997 to $4.8 million in the first three months
of fiscal 1998. The increase was primarily attributable to the growth of the
number and size of software licenses covered by maintenance contracts. Other
revenues for both periods were not significant.
<PAGE>
Costs of Revenues. Costs of license revenues consist primarily of
royalties and sublicense fees. The costs of license revenues decreased 21.4%
from $276,000 in the first three months of fiscal 1997 to $217,000 in the
comparable period of fiscal 1998, representing 5.3% and 2.7%, respectively, of
license revenues in those periods. The decrease in the costs of license revenues
was primarily related to a decrease in the royalty fees for the
INFOPAC-TapeSaver product.
Costs of maintenance and other revenues consist primarily of customer
support staff costs. The costs of maintenance revenues increased 15.3% from
$751,000 in the first three months of fiscal 1997 to $866,000 in the first three
months of fiscal 1998, representing 18.4% and 18.0% of maintenance revenues,
respectively. The increase in the costs of maintenance and other revenues is
primarily attributable to increased staffing, bad debt reserves and personnel
related costs.
Operating Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of
the cost of personnel associated with the selling and marketing of the Company's
products, including salaries, commissions, bonus and travel and entertainment
costs. Sales and marketing expenses also include the cost of branch sales
offices, marketing and promotional materials and advertising. Sales and
marketing expenses increased 24.9% from $5.3 million in the first three months
of fiscal 1997 to $6.6 million in the comparable period of fiscal 1998. This
increase was primarily attributable to increased commissions and the cost of
travel and entertainment associated with increased revenues and expenses for
additional sales staff and personnel related costs, offset by a decrease in
subcontractor fees.
Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs
attributable to the development of new software products and the enhancement of
existing products. Research and development expenses increased 28.8% from $1.5
million in the first three months of fiscal 1997 to $2.0 million in the
comparable period of fiscal 1998. The increase is primarily attributable to
increased staffing and personnel-related costs. The Company believes that a
significant level of research and development expenses will be required to
maintain its competitive position in the future.
General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel
costs related to management, accounting, human resources, network services,
administration and associated overhead costs, as well as fees for professional
services. General and administrative expenses increased 53.2% from $1.1 million
in the first three months of fiscal 1997 to $1.7 million in the comparable
period of fiscal 1998. The increase primarily reflects additional personnel
related costs as a result of the Company's expanded operations. The Company
expects general and administrative expenses to increase in fiscal 1998 as a
result of the costs associated with the regulatory and communication
requirements applicable to public companies.
License and other interest income; interest expense; foreign currency
transaction gains (losses). License and other interest income consists primarily
of the portion of license payments under installment contracts allocated by the
Company to interest based on a discount rate. License and other interest income
increased from $223,000 in the first three months of fiscal 1997 to $541,000 in
the comparable period of fiscal 1998 as a result of the larger balances of
software license installments.
Interest expense consists primarily of costs associated with the
Company's capital lease obligations. Foreign currency transaction losses consist
of income or expenses associated with the valuation of the Company's non-dollar
denominated assets held by its foreign subsidiaries. Both interest expense and
foreign currency transaction losses were not material in the third quarter of
each of fiscal years 1997 and 1998.
Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes was $354,000
for the first three months of fiscal 1997 and $979,000 for the comparable period
of fiscal 1998. The effective tax rates for these respective periods were 60.6%
and 56.0%. The difference between these rates and the applicable statutory rates
is primarily attributable to the unrecognized tax benefit related to operating
losses of the Company's foreign subsidiaries.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 1997 Compared to Nine Months Ended March 31, 1998
Revenues. Total revenues, consisting principally of software license
revenues and maintenance and other revenues, increased 34.6% from $26.7 million
in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 to $36.0 million in the first nine
months of fiscal 1998. Domestic revenues increased 33.2% from $24.1 million in
the first nine months of fiscal 1997 to $32.1 million in the same period in
fiscal 1998. International revenues increased 47.1% from $2.6 million in the
first nine months of fiscal 1997 to $3.9 million in the same period in fiscal
1998.
Software license revenues increased 44.5% from $15.5 million in the
first nine months of fiscal 1997 to $22.4 million in the comparable period of
fiscal 1998. The increase was primarily attributable to increased sales of the
ViewDirect and DocumentDirect products and, to a lesser extent, the INFOPAC- ABS
product and DocuAnalyzer.
Maintenance and other revenues increased 20.9% from $11.2 million for
the first nine months of fiscal 1997 to $13.6 million in the first nine months
of fiscal 1998. The increase was primarily attributable to the growth of the
installed base of customers with maintenance contracts, and, to a lesser extent,
increases in the fees charged by the Company. Other revenues for both periods
were not significant.
Costs of Revenues. Costs of license revenues consist primarily of
royalties and sublicense fees. The costs of license revenues increased 11.3%
from $804,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 to $895,000 in the
comparable period of fiscal 1998, representing 5.2% and 4.0%, respectively, of
license revenues in those periods. The increase in the costs of license revenues
was primarily related to increased sales of DocuAnalyzer, which require the
Company to pay third party royalty fees.
The costs of maintenance and other revenues consist primarily of
customer support staff costs. The costs of maintenance revenues increased 10.4%
from $2.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 to $2.4 million in the
first nine months of fiscal 1998, representing 19.5% and 17.8% of maintenance
revenues, respectively. The increase in the costs of maintenance and other
revenues is primarily attributable to increased staffing and personnel-related
costs.
Operating Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of
the cost of personnel associated with the selling and marketing of the Company's
products, including salaries, commissions, bonus and travel and entertainment.
Sales and marketing expenses also include the cost of branch sales offices, bad
debts, marketing and promotional materials, tradeshows and advertising. Sales
and marketing expenses increased 20.3% from $14.4 million in the first nine
months of fiscal 1997 to $17.4 million in the comparable period of fiscal 1998.
This increase was primarily attributable to increased commissions and travel and
entertainment expenses associated with increased revenues and expenses for
additional sales staff and personnel related costs, offset by a decrease in
subcontractor expenses.
Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs
attributable to the development of new software products and the enhancement of
existing products. Research and development expenses increased 27.2% from $4.3
million in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 to $5.5 million in the
comparable period of fiscal 1998. The increase is primarily attributable to
increased staffing and personnel related costs. The Company believes that a
significant level of research and development expenses will be required to
maintain its competitive position in the future.
General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel
costs related to management, accounting, human resources, network
services,administration and associated overhead costs, as well as fees for
professional services. General and administrative expenses increased 55.7% from
$3.0 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 to $4.7 million in the
comparable period of fiscal 1998. The increase primarily reflects additional
personnel related costs as a result of the Company's expanded operations. The
Company expects general and administrative expenses to increase in fiscal 1998
as a result of the costs associated with the regulatory and communication
requirements applicable to public companies.
License and other interest income; interest expense; foreign currency
transaction gains (losses). License and other interest income consists primarily
of the portion of license payments under installment contracts allocated by the
Company to interest based on a discount rate. License and other interest income
increased from $551,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 to $1.4 million
in the comparable period of fiscal 1998 as a result of larger balance of
software license installments.
Interest expense consists primarily of costs associated with the
Company's capital lease obligations. Foreign currency transaction losses consist
of income or expenses associated with the valuation of the Company's non-dollar
denominated assets held by its foreign subsidiaries. Both interest expense and
foreign currency transaction losses were not material in the first nine months
of each of fiscal years 1997 and 1998.
Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes was $1.4
million for the first nine months of fiscal 1997 and $3.3 million for the
comparable period of fiscal 1998. The effective tax rates for these respective
periods were 57.5% and 55.1%. The difference between these rates and the
applicable statutory rates is primarily attributable to the unrecognized tax
benefit related to operating losses of the Company's foreign subsidiaries.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since its inception, the Company has funded its operations principally
through cash flows from operating activities and, to a lesser extent, bank
financings and capital leases. As of March 31, 1998, the Company had cash and
cash equivalents of $9.7 million, an increase of $4.0 million from the $5.7
million held at June 30, 1997.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $930,000 and $5.1 million
in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 and 1998, respectively. The Company's
cash position was improved by diligent collection efforts, resulting in lower
accounts receivable per dollar of revenue, offset by the increase in software
license installments. Software license installments, which, in total, increased
45.5% to $18.2 million at the nine months ended March 31, 1998 represent
payments due from customers for license fees that are paid over the term of the
installment agreement. These payments are typically made over 3-5 year terms.
Since payments are made over multiple reporting periods, software license
installments will increase with the increase in license revenue if the
percentage of licenses sold on this basis remains relatively stable, as it has
over the past 3 years.
The Company's cash position has also benefited from increases in
deferred maintenance revenue, which in total, has increased 43.7% to $16.0
million for the nine months ended March 31, 1998. Deferred maintenance revenue
represents the unrecognized portion of maintenance billings and the unrecognized
portion of maintenance revenue unbundled from customer license agreements which
are recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, or the first year of the
license agreement. These increases are primarily due to increases in license
fees, the increase in the number of customers covered by maintenance agreements
and, to a lesser extent, increases in the fees charged to customers for
maintenance.
Cash used in investing activities, consisting of capital expenditures
for the purchase of computer equipment and software used in product development
and customer support, was $589,000 and $1.1 million in the first nine months of
fiscal 1997 and 1998, respectively.
Cash used in financing activities, consisting of repayment of capital lease
obligations, was $135,000 and $43,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 1997
and 1998, respectively.
The Company currently has a $5.0 million line of credit for working
capital purposes secured by certain assets of the Company. The line of credit
requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and provides for
certain negative covenants by the Company including, among others, restrictions,
subject to the qualifications and limitations contained therein, on the
Company's ability to (i) dispose of a substantial part of its business or
property; (ii) change its business; (iii) materially change the Company's
ownership or management; (iv) merge or consolidate with any other business
organization, or acquire all or substantially all of the capital stock or
property of another person; (v) incur any indebtedness or encumbrances, other
than indebtedness or encumbrances specifically permitted by the line of credit;
and (vi) make any other distribution with respect to any capital stock of the
Company. The line of credit expires on October 20, 1998.
In April 1998, the Company sold 2,500,000 shares of common stock at a
price of $14.50 per share in the IPO. The net proceeds to the Company was
$33,112,500 after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering
expenses payable by the Company.
The Company believes that the net proceeds from the IPO, combined with
its existing cash balances, its line of credit and cash flows expected from
future operations, will be sufficient to meet the Company's capital requirements
for at least 12 months.
