PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
You should read the following summary together with the more detailed
information regarding Selectica and the common stock being sold in this offering
in our financial statements and notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus and
our risk factors beginning on page 6.
SELECTICA, INC.
Selectica is a leading provider of Internet selling system software and
services that enable companies to efficiently sell complex products and services
over intranets, which are networks of computers that are internal to companies
and use Internet technologies, extranets, which are intranets that outsiders,
such as suppliers and customers, are allowed to access, and the public Internet.
Our ACE suite of software products is a comprehensive Internet selling system
solution that guides a new customer through an analysis of its needs and product
or service selection and also guides an experienced customer, partner or
employee through product or service configuration, pricing and order creation
over the Internet, thereby helping convert potential buyers into customers. Our
Internet selling system solution allows companies to use the Internet platform
to deploy a selling application to many points of contact, including personal
computers, in-store kiosks and mobile devices, while offering customers,
partners and employees an interface customized to their specific needs.
The Internet is transforming the business environment by increasing
competition and enabling the development of new business models. In order to
remain competitive, companies must find innovative ways to sell, increase
efficiencies in the sales cycle and deliver greater customer satisfaction. A
growing number of companies are seeking to leverage the Internet to market and
sell their products and services. To date, many electronic commerce transactions
have been simple purchases of products such as books, compact discs, stocks and
toys. We believe, however, that growth in electronic commerce will be driven by
the ability of companies to complete complex transactions such as
business-to-business electronic commerce, which is the sale of products and
services over the Internet from businesses to other businesses, and the sale of
consumer products and services involving multiple features and options.
The completion of a complex sales transaction depends on a seller's ability
to identify and satisfy a buyer's needs. In traditional sales, companies rely on
trained salespeople to interact with customers to address customer needs,
explain product features and ultimately consummate the sale. To date, many
electronic commerce web sites have been static collections of non-interactive
content, and have limited ability to assist and guide a customer through a
purchase decision. Using the Internet to complete complex sales transactions,
however, requires businesses to implement a sophisticated system that performs
the traditional role of the salesperson throughout the sales lifecycle of the
products and services.
In parallel with the growth of electronic commerce, the Internet is
becoming a technology platform for business application deployment. With the
emergence of the Internet platform, which includes intranets, extranets and the
public Internet, companies are able to more broadly and cost-effectively deploy
business applications to customers, partners and employees and make the most
current applications and information immediately available on Internet-enabled
devices.
Our ACE suite of products enables businesses to easily develop and rapidly
deploy an Internet sales channel, or a means for selling products and services
over the Internet, that interactively assists their customers, partners and
employees through the selection, configuration, pricing, quoting and fulfillment
processes. ACE is a comprehensive Internet selling system that meets the needs
of companies looking to efficiently sell complex products and services. Our
product architecture has been designed specifically for the Internet, providing
our solution with scalability, which is the ability to accommodate substantial
increases in the number of users concurrently using the product, reliability and
flexibility. Additionally, our Internet selling system solution has been
developed with an open architecture that leverages data in existing enterprise
applications, such as enterprise resource planning systems, providing an
easy-to-install application that is designed to reduce deployment time.
Our current customers include 3Com, Allied Signal, Aspect Communications,
BMW, Centigram, Cisco, Cooper Cameron, Dell, Fireman's Fund, Fujitsu,
Hewlett-Packard, Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, Louis Vuitton Moet & Hennessy,
Network Appliance, Redback Networks, RTS Software, Samsung and Smart Pipes. We
have developed strong working relationships with system integrators, such as
Andersen Consulting, Arthur Andersen, EDS, A.T. Kearny, KPMG and
PricewaterhouseCoopers, with independent software vendors, such as BroadVision,
InterWorld, Netscape/AOL and Tibco, and with application service providers such
as Asera and Corio. Our strategic investors are the Intel 64 Fund and ITOCHU
Corporation.
Selectica was incorporated in June 1996. Our principal offices are located
at 3 West Plumeria Drive, San Jose, California 95134 and our telephone number is

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On July 18, 2000, we announced that revenues were $7.6 million and diluted
net loss per share was $0.41 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000.
In July 2000, we entered into an agreement to acquire Wakely Software,
Inc., a provider of rating software and actuarial services for the insurance
industry for total consideration of stock and cash valued at approximately $18
million on July 17, 2000, excluding transaction costs. Combined with Wakely
Software, we intend to offer a multi-channel Internet sales solution developed
for the insurance industry. The closing of the acquisition is subject to a
number of closing conditions, including our right to terminate the acquisition
if it is determined that Wakely Software would be deemed a significant
subsidiary of us.

RISK FACTORS
This offering and an investment in our common stock involve a high degree
of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and the other
information in this prospectus before investing in our common stock.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
THE UNPREDICTABILITY OF OUR QUARTERLY REVENUES AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS MAKES
IT DIFFICULT TO PREDICT OUR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND MAY CAUSE VOLATILITY OR A
DECLINE IN THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK IF WE ARE UNABLE TO SATISFY THE
EXPECTATIONS OF INVESTORS OR THE MARKET.
In the past, our quarterly operating results have varied significantly, and
we expect these fluctuations to continue. Future operating results may vary
depending on a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control.
Our quarterly revenues may fluctuate as a result of our ability to
recognize revenue in a given quarter. We enter into arrangements for the sale of
(1) licenses of our software products and related maintenance contract; (2)
bundled license, maintenance, and services; and (3) services on a time and
material basis. For each arrangement, we determine whether evidence of an
arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and
collection is probable. If any of these criteria are not met, revenue
recognition is deferred until such time as all of the criteria are met.
Additionally, because we rely on a limited number of customers for our revenue,
the loss or delay of one prospective customer may significantly harm our
operating results.
For those contracts that consist solely of license and maintenance we
recognize license revenues based upon the residual method after all elements
other than maintenance have been delivered as we have vendor specific objective
evidence of fair value of maintenance we recognize maintenance revenues over the
term of the maintenance contract. For those contracts that bundle the license
with maintenance training, and/or consulting services, we assess whether the
service element of the arrangement is essential to the functionality of the
other elements of the arrangement. In those instances where we determine that
the service elements are essential to the other elements of the arrangement, we
account for the entire arrangement using contract accounting.
For those arrangements accounted for using contract accounting that do not
include contractual milestones or other acceptance criteria we utilize the
percentage of completion method based upon input measures of hours. For those
contracts that include contract milestones or acceptance criteria we recognize
revenue as such milestones are achieved or as such acceptance occurs.
In some instances the acceptance criteria in the contract requires
acceptance after all services are complete and all other elements have been
delivered. In these instances we recognize revenue based upon the completed
contract method after such acceptance has occurred.
For those arrangements for which we have concluded that the service element
is not essential to the other elements of the arrangement we determine whether
the services are available from other vendors, do not involve a significant
degree of risk or unique acceptance criteria, and whether we have sufficient
experience in providing the service to be able to separately account for the
service. When the service qualifies for separate accounting we have vendor
specific objective evidence of fair value for the service.
In addition, because we rely on a limited number of customers, the timing
of milestone achievement or customer acceptance by, the amount of services we
provide to, or the recognition of significant license revenues upon shipment to
a single customer can significantly affect our operating results. For example,
our services revenues declined significantly in the quarter ended June 30, 1999
6
<PAGE> 8
due to completion of a services contract with BMW of North America, one of our
significant customers. Our license and service revenues increased significantly
in the quarters ended September 30, 1999, December 31, 1999 and March 31, 2000
generally due to the addition of two new customers. See "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Quarterly
Results of Operations." We intend to significantly increase our operating
expenses for the foreseeable future. Because these expenses are relatively fixed
in the near term, any shortfall from anticipated revenues could cause our
quarterly operating results to fall below anticipated levels.
We may also experience seasonality in revenues. For example, our quarterly
results may fluctuate based upon our customers' calendar year budgeting cycles.
These seasonal variations may lead to fluctuations in our quarterly revenues and
operating results.
Based upon the foregoing, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of
our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and that such
comparisons should not be relied upon as indications of future performance. In
some future quarter, our operating results may be below the expectations of
public market analysts and investors, which could cause volatility or a decline
in the price of our common stock.
WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES AND EXPECT TO CONTINUE TO INCUR NET LOSSES FOR THE
FORESEEABLE FUTURE.
We have experienced operating losses in each quarterly and annual period
since inception. We incurred net losses applicable to common stockholders of
$7.5 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999 and $31.8 million for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2000. As of March 31, 2000, we had an accumulated
deficit of $43.1 million. We expect to significantly increase our research and
development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, and
consequently our losses may increase in the future. In order to accommodate our
increase in employees, we have recently leased a larger facility, and we will
incur increased capital equipment costs. We will need to generate significant
increases in our revenues to achieve and maintain profitability. If our revenue
fails to grow or grows more slowly than we anticipate or our operating expenses
exceed our expectations, our losses will significantly increase which would
significantly harm our business and operating results.
OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS WILL BE HARMED BY CHARGES ASSOCIATED WITH OUR PAYMENT
OF STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND CHARGES ASSOCIATED WITH OTHER SECURITIES
ISSUANCE BY US.
We have in the past and expect in the future to incur a significant amount
of amortization of charges related to securities issuances in future periods,
which will negatively affect our operating results. We had deferred compensation
charges of $12.9 million for stock-based compensation and had related
amortization of $1.3 million for the year ended March 31, 2000. We expect to
amortize approximately $3.3 million of stock-based compensation for the fiscal
year ending March 31, 2001 and we may incur additional charges in the future in
connection with grants of stock-based compensation at less than fair value. In
January 2000, in connection with a license and maintenance agreement, we issued
a warrant to purchase 800,000 shares of common stock for $800,000. The fair
value of the warrant was $16.4 million. In the quarter ended March 31, 2000, we
incurred a charge of $9.7 million, of which $4.1 million was charged to cost of
license revenues and $5.6 million was charged to costs of services revenues, in
relation to the issuance of these warrants. For the year ended March 31, 2001,
we expect to amortize approximately $5.9 million, as an offset to revenue, in
relation to the issuance of these warrants. In addition, if we consummate the
acquisition of Wakely Software, we expect to incur charges in the areas of
in-process research and development. We expect to incur amortization expense of
goodwill over a period of three to five years. See Notes 10 and 14 of the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements.

OUR LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AND THE FACT THAT WE OPERATE IN A NEW INDUSTRY
MAKES EVALUATING OUR BUSINESS PROSPECTS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS DIFFICULT.
We were founded in June 1996 and have a limited operating history. We began
marketing our ACE suite of products in early 1997 and released ACE 4.0 in
November 1999. Our business model is still emerging, and the revenue and income
potential of our business and market are unproven. As a result of our limited
operating history, we have limited financial data that you can use to evaluate
our business. You must consider our prospects in light of the risks and
difficulties we may encounter as an early stage company in the new and rapidly
evolving market for Internet selling systems.
IF THE MARKET FOR INTERNET SELLING SYSTEM SOFTWARE DOES NOT DEVELOP AS WE
ANTICIPATE, OUR OPERATING RESULTS WILL BE SIGNIFICANTLY HARMED, WHICH COULD
CAUSE A DECLINE IN THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
The market for Internet selling system software, which has only recently
begun to develop, is evolving rapidly and likely will have an increased number
of competitors. Because this market is new, it is difficult to assess its
competitive environment, growth rate and potential size. The growth of the
market is dependent upon the willingness of businesses and consumers to purchase
complex goods and services over the Internet and the acceptance of the Internet
as a platform for business applications. In addition, companies that have
already invested substantial resources in other methods of Internet selling may
be reluctant or slow to adopt a new approach or application that may replace,
limit or compete with their existing systems.
The acceptance and growth of the Internet as a business platform may not
continue to develop at historical rates and a sufficiently broad base of
companies may not adopt Internet platform-based business applications, either of
which could significantly harm our business and operating results. The failure
of the market for Internet selling system software to develop, or a delay in the
development of this market, would significantly harm our business and operating
results.
WE FACE INTENSE COMPETITION, WHICH COULD REDUCE OUR SALES, PREVENT US FROM
ACHIEVING OR MAINTAINING PROFITABILITY AND INHIBIT OUR FUTURE GROWTH.
The market for software and services that enable electronic commerce is
new, intensely competitive and rapidly changing. We expect competition to
persist and intensify, which could result in price reductions, reduced gross
margins and loss of market share. Our principal competitors include Calico
Commerce, FirePond and Trilogy Software, BAAN, Oracle Corporation, SAP and
Siebel Systems offer integrated solutions for electronic commerce incorporating
some of the functionality of an Internet selling system and may intensify their
efforts in our market. In addition, other enterprise software companies may
offer competitive products in the future.
Competitors vary in size and in the scope and breadth of the products and
services offered. Many of our competitors and potential competitors have a
number of significant advantages over us, including:
- a longer operating history;
- preferred vendor status with our customers;
- more extensive name recognition and marketing power; and
- significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other
resources, giving them the ability to respond more quickly to new or
changing opportunities, technologies and customer requirements.
8
<PAGE> 10
Our competitors may also bundle their products in a manner that may
discourage users from purchasing our products. Current and potential competitors
may establish cooperative relationships with each other or with third parties,
or adopt aggressive pricing policies to gain market share. Competitive pressures
may require us to reduce the prices of our products and services. We may not be
able to maintain or expand our sales if competition increases and we are unable
to respond effectively.
OUR LENGTHY SALES CYCLE MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR US TO FORECAST REVENUE AND
AGGRAVATES THE VARIABILITY OF QUARTERLY FLUCTUATIONS, WHICH COULD CAUSE OUR
STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE.
The sales cycle of our products has historically averaged between four and
six months, and may sometimes be significantly longer. We are generally required
to provide a significant level of education regarding the use and benefits of
our products, and potential customers tend to engage in extensive internal
reviews before making purchase decisions. In addition, the purchase of our
products typically involves a significant commitment by our customers of capital
and other resources, and is therefore subject to delays that are beyond our
control, such as customers' internal budgetary procedures and the testing and
acceptance of new technologies that affect key operations. In addition, because
we intend to target large companies, our sales cycle can be lengthier due to the
decision process in large organizations. As a result of our products' long sales
cycles, we face difficulty predicting the quarter in which sales to expected
customers may occur. If anticipated sales from a specific customer for a
particular quarter are not realized in that quarter, our operating results for
that quarter could fall below the expectations of financial analysts and
investors, which could cause our stock price to decline.
IF WE DO NOT KEEP PACE WITH TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE, INCLUDING MAINTAINING
INTEROPERABILITY OF OUR PRODUCT WITH THE SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE PLATFORMS
PREDOMINANTLY USED BY OUR CUSTOMERS, OUR PRODUCT MAY BE RENDERED OBSOLETE AND
OUR BUSINESS MAY FAIL.
Our industry is characterized by rapid technological change, changes in
customer requirements, frequent new product and service introductions and
enhancements and emerging industry standards. In order to achieve broad customer
acceptance, our products must be compatible with major software and hardware
platforms used by our customers. Our products currently operate on the Microsoft
Windows NT, Sun Solaris IBM AIX, Linux and HP/UX operating systems. In addition,
our products are required to interoperate with electronic commerce applications
and databases. We must continually modify and enhance our products to keep pace
with changes in these operating systems, applications and databases. Internet
selling system technology is complex and new products and product enhancements
can require long development and testing periods. If our products were to be
incompatible with a popular new operating system, electronic commerce
application or database, our business would be significantly harmed. In
addition, the development of entirely new technologies to replace existing
software could lead to new competitive products that have better performance or
lower prices than our products and could render our products obsolete and
unmarketable.
DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES WILL DECLINE SIGNIFICANTLY IF OUR SOFTWARE
CANNOT SUPPORT AND MANAGE A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF USERS.
Our strategy requires that our products be highly scalable. To date, only a
limited number of our customers have deployed our ACE products on a large scale.
If our customers cannot successfully implement large-scale deployments, or if
they determine that we cannot accommodate large-scale deployments, our business
and operating results would be significantly harmed.
9
<PAGE> 11
IF WE FAIL TO IMPROVE OUR ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL CONTROL SYSTEMS OR ACCURATELY
MANAGE THE PROGRESS OF OUR CUSTOMER CONTRACTS, OUR OPERATING RESULTS WILL BE
SIGNIFICANTLY HARMED.
In the past, we have had difficulty managing our accounting and financial
reporting systems and the volume and complexity of our customer contracts. We
need to improve our financial and accounting controls, improve our reporting and
approval procedures, expand and train key personnel within our finance and
management organizations, implement more robust information systems, and
accurately record and track our customer contracts. If we fail to improve our
financial systems, procedures and controls or if we fail to effectively manage
our customer contracts, our business and operating results would be
significantly harmed.
WE HAVE RELIED AND EXPECT TO CONTINUE TO RELY ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS
FOR A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF OUR REVENUES, AND THE LOSS OF ANY OF THESE
CUSTOMERS COULD SIGNIFICANTLY HARM OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING RESULTS.
Our business and financial condition is dependent on a limited number of
customers. Our five largest customers accounted for approximately 53% of our
revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000, and our ten largest customers
accounted for 76% of our revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000.
Revenues from significant clients as a percentage of total revenues are as
follows:
FISCAL YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2000
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
LVMH........................................................ 12%
Samsung, SDS................................................ 12%
3Com Corporation............................................ 10%
Fireman's Fund Insurance.................................... 10%
</TABLE>
We expect that we will continue to depend upon a relatively small number of
customers for a substantial portion of our revenues for the foreseeable future.
Contracts with our customers can generally be terminated on short notice by the
customer. As a result, if we fail to successfully sell our products and services
to one or more customers in any particular period, or a large customer purchases
less of our products or services, defers or cancels orders, or terminates its
relationship with us, our business and operating results would be harmed.
OUR FAILURE TO MEET CUSTOMER EXPECTATIONS ON DEPLOYMENT OF OUR PRODUCTS COULD
RESULT IN NEGATIVE PUBLICITY AND REDUCED SALES, BOTH OF WHICH WOULD
SIGNIFICANTLY HARM OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING RESULTS.
In the past, our customers have experienced difficulties or delays in
completing implementation of our products. We may experience similar
difficulties or delays in the future. Our Internet selling system solution
relies on defining a knowledge base that must contain all of the information
about the products and services being configured. We have found that extracting
the information necessary to construct a knowledge base can be more time
consuming than we or our customers anticipate. If our customers do not devote
the resources necessary to create the knowledge base, the deployment of our
products can be delayed. Deploying our ACE products can also involve
time-consuming integration with our customers' legacy systems, such as existing
databases and enterprise resource planning software. Failing to meet customer
expectations on deployment of our products could result in a loss of customers
and negative publicity regarding us and our products, which could adversely
affect our ability to attract new customers. In addition, time-consuming
deployments may also increase the
10
<PAGE> 12
amount of professional services we must allocate to each customer, thereby
increasing our costs and adversely affecting our business and operating results.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO MAINTAIN AND EXPAND OUR DIRECT SALES FORCE, SALES OF OUR
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES MAY NOT MEET OUR EXPECTATIONS AND OUR BUSINESS AND
OPERATING RESULTS WILL BE SIGNIFICANTLY HARMED.
We depend on our direct sales force for all of our current sales and our
future growth depends on the ability of our direct sales force to develop
customer relationships and increase sales to a level that will allow us to reach
and maintain profitability.
There is a shortage of the sales personnel we need, such as sales
engineers, and competition for qualified personnel is intense. In addition, it
will take time for new sales personnel to achieve full productivity. If we are
unable to hire or retain qualified sales personnel, or if newly hired personnel
fail to develop the necessary skills or to reach productivity when anticipated,
we may not be able to expand our sales organization and increase sales of our
products and services.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO GROW AND MANAGE OUR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES ORGANIZATION, WE
WILL BE UNABLE TO PROVIDE OUR CUSTOMERS WITH TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR OUR PRODUCTS,
WHICH COULD SIGNIFICANTLY HARM OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING RESULTS.
As we increase licensing of our software products, we must grow our
professional services organization to assist our customers with implementation
and maintenance of our products. Because these professional services have been
expensive to provide, we must improve the management of our professional
services organizations to improve our results of operations. Improving the
efficiency of our consulting services is dependent upon attracting and retaining
experienced project managers. Competition for these project managers is intense,
particularly in the Silicon Valley and in India where the majority of our
professional services organization is based, and we may not be able to hire
qualified individuals to fill these positions.
Although services revenues, which are primarily comprised of revenues from
consulting fees, maintenance contracts and training, are important to our
business, representing 43% of total revenues for the year ended March 31, 2000,
services revenues have lower gross margins than license revenues. Gross margins
for services revenues were negative 113% for the year ended March 31, 2000
compared to gross margins for license revenues of 51% for the same period. As a
result, a continued increase in the percentage of total net revenues represented
by services revenues or an unexpected decrease in license revenues could have a
detrimental impact on our overall gross margins and our operating results.
We anticipate that customers will increasingly utilize third-party
consultants to install and deploy our products. Additionally, for all new
contracts we charge for our professional services on a time and materials rather
than a fixed-fee basis. To the extent that customers are unwilling to utilize
third-party consultants or require us to provide professional services on a
fixed fee basis, our cost of services revenues could increase and could cause us
to recognize a loss on a specific contract, either of which would adversely
affect our operating results. In addition, if we are unable to provide these
resources, we may lose sales or incur customer dissatisfaction and our business
and operating results could be significantly harmed.
11
<PAGE> 13
FAILURE TO ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN RELATIONSHIPS WITH SYSTEMS INTEGRATORS AND
CONSULTING FIRMS, WHICH ASSIST US WITH THE SALE AND INSTALLATION OF OUR
PRODUCTS, WOULD IMPEDE ACCEPTANCE OF OUR PRODUCTS AND THE GROWTH OF OUR
REVENUES.
We rely in part upon systems integrators and consulting firms to recommend
our products to their customers and to install and deploy our products. To
increase our revenues and implementation capabilities, we must develop and
expand our relationships with these systems integrators and consulting firms. If
systems integrators and consulting firms develop, market or recommend
competitive Internet selling systems, our revenues may decline. In addition, if
these systems integrators and consulting firms are unwilling to install and
deploy our products, we may not have the resources to provide adequate
implementation services to our customers and our business and operating results
could be significantly harmed.
OUR OPERATING RESULTS ARE SIGNIFICANTLY DEPENDENT UPON THE SALE OF OUR ACE SUITE
OF PRODUCTS, INCLUDING THE NEW VERSION OF OUR PRODUCT RELEASED IN NOVEMBER 1999.
We expect that we will continue to depend on revenue from new and enhanced
versions of ACE for the foreseeable future, and if companies do not adopt or
expand their use of ACE, our business and operating results would be
significantly harmed. ACE 4.0 was introduced in November 1999. Since ACE 4.0 has
only recently been introduced, customers may discover errors or other problems
with the product, which may adversely affect its acceptance.
IF NEW VERSIONS AND RELEASES OF OUR PRODUCTS CONTAIN ERRORS OR DEFECTS, WE COULD
SUFFER LOSSES AND NEGATIVE PUBLICITY, WHICH WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS
AND OPERATING RESULTS.
Complex software products such as ours often contain errors or defects,
including errors relating to security, particularly when first introduced or
when new versions or enhancements are released. In the past, we have discovered
defects in our products and provided product updates to our customers to address
such defects. ACE and other future products may contain defects or errors, which
could result in lost revenues, a delay in market acceptance or negative
publicity, which would significantly harm our business and operating results.
MANY OF OUR EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND KEY PERSONNEL ARE RELATIVELY NEW AND MUST BE
INTEGRATED INTO OUR ORGANIZATION.
Many of our executive officers and key personnel have recently joined
Selectica, including our Vice President of Marketing and our Chief Financial
Officer, each of whom have joined Selectica since June 1999. Our future
performance will depend, in part, on our ability to successfully integrate our
newly hired executive officers and key personnel into our management team, and
our ability to develop an effective working relationship among management.
OUR RAPID GROWTH PLACES A SIGNIFICANT STRAIN ON OUR MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND
RESOURCES, AND IF WE FAIL TO MANAGE THIS GROWTH, OUR BUSINESS WILL BE HARMED.
We have recently experienced a period of rapid growth and expansion, which
places significant demands on our managerial, administrative, operational,
financial and other resources. From December 31, 1998 to June 30, 2000, we
expanded from 68 to 549 employees. We have also significantly expanded our
operations in the U.S. and internationally and we plan to continue to expand the
geographic scope of our operations.
12
<PAGE> 14
We will be required to manage an increasing number of relationships with
customers, suppliers and employees, and an increasing number of complex
contracts. If we are unable to initiate procedures and controls to support our
future operations in an efficient and timely manner, or if we are unable to
otherwise manage growth effectively, our business would be harmed.
THE LOSS OF ANY OF OUR KEY PERSONNEL WOULD HARM OUR COMPETITIVENESS BECAUSE OF
THE TIME AND EFFORT THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO EXPEND TO REPLACE SUCH PERSONNEL.
We believe that our success will depend on the continued employment of our
senior management team and key technical personnel, none of whom, except Rajen
Jaswa, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Dr. Sanjay Mittal, our
Chief Technical Officer and Vice President of Engineering, has an employment
agreement with us. If one or more members of our senior management team or key
technical personnel were unable or unwilling to continue in their present
positions, these individuals would be difficult to replace. Consequently, our
ability to manage day-to-day operations, including our operations in Pune,
India, develop and deliver new technologies, attract and retain customers,
attract and retain other employees and generate revenues would be significantly
harmed.
A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF OUR OPERATIONS ARE CONDUCTED BY INDIA-BASED PERSONNEL,
AND ANY CHANGE IN THE POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS OF INDIA OR IN
IMMIGRATION POLICIES, WHICH WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO CONDUCT OUR
OPERATIONS IN INDIA, COULD SIGNIFICANTLY HARM OUR BUSINESS.
We conduct quality assurance and professional services operations in India.
As of June 30, 2000, there were 184 persons employed in India. We are dependent
on our India-based operations for these aspects of our business and we intend to
grow our operations in India. As a result, we are directly influenced by the
political and economic conditions affecting India. Operating expenses incurred
by our operations in India are denominated in Indian currency and accordingly,
we are exposed to adverse movements in currency exchange rates. This, as well as
any other political or economic problems or changes in India, could have a
negative impact on our India-based operations, resulting in significant harm to
our business and operating results. Furthermore, the intellectual property laws
of India may not adequately protect our proprietary rights. We believe that it
is particularly difficult to find quality management personnel in India, and we
may not be able to timely replace our current India-based management team if any
of them were to leave our company.
Our training program for some of our India-based employees includes an
internship at our San Jose, California headquarters. Additionally, we provide
services to some of our customers internationally with India-based employees. We
presently rely on a number of visa programs to enable these India-based
employees to travel and work internationally. Any change in the immigration
policies of India or the countries to which these employees travel and work
could cause disruption or force the termination of these programs, which would
harm our business.
BECAUSE COMPETITION FOR QUALIFIED PERSONNEL IS INTENSE IN OUR INDUSTRY AND IN
OUR GEOGRAPHIC REGION, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RECRUIT OR RETAIN PERSONNEL, WHICH
COULD IMPACT THE DEVELOPMENT OR SALES OF OUR PRODUCTS.
Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain qualified
management, engineering, sales and marketing and professional services
personnel. Competition for these types of personnel is intense, especially in
the Silicon Valley. We do not have employment agreements with most of our key
personnel. If we are unable to retain our existing key personnel, or attract and
train additional qualified personnel, our growth may be limited due to our lack
of capacity to develop and market our products.
13
<PAGE> 15
IF WE BECOME SUBJECT TO PRODUCT LIABILITY LITIGATION, IT COULD BE COSTLY AND
TIME CONSUMING TO DEFEND AND COULD DISTRACT US FROM FOCUSING ON OUR BUSINESS AND
OPERATIONS.
Since our products are company-wide, mission-critical computer applications
with a potentially strong impact on our customers' sales, errors, defects or
other performance problems could result in financial or other damages to our
customers. Although our license agreements generally contain provisions designed
to limit our exposure to product liability claims, existing or future laws or
unfavorable judicial decisions could negate such limitation of liability
provisions. Product liability litigation, even if it were unsuccessful, would be
time consuming and costly to defend.
OUR FUTURE SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR PROPRIETARY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, AND IF WE
ARE UNABLE TO PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY FROM POTENTIAL COMPETITORS OUR
BUSINESS MAY BE SIGNIFICANTLY HARMED.
We rely on a combination of trademark, trade secret and copyright law and
contractual restrictions to protect the proprietary aspects of our technology.
These legal protections afford only limited protection for our technology. We
currently hold one patent. We also currently have two pending U.S. patent
applications. In addition, we have three trademarks and have applied to register
two of the trademarks in the United States. Our trademark and patent
applications might not result in the issuance of any trademarks or patents. If
any patent or trademark is issued, it might be invalidated or circumvented or
otherwise fail to provide us any meaningful protection. We seek to protect
source code for our software, documentation and other written materials under
trade secret and copyright laws. We license our software pursuant to signed
license agreements, which impose certain restrictions on the licensee's ability
to utilize the software. We also seek to avoid disclosure of our intellectual
property by requiring employees and consultants with access to our proprietary
information to execute confidentiality agreements. Despite our efforts to
protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects
of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary.
In addition, the laws of many countries do not protect our proprietary rights to
as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. Litigation may be
necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect
our trade secrets and to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary
rights of others. Our failure to adequately protect our intellectual property
could significantly harm our business and operating results.
ANY ACQUISITIONS THAT WE MAY MAKE COULD DISRUPT OUR BUSINESS AND HARM OUR
OPERATING RESULTS.
We may acquire or make investments in complementary companies, products or
technologies. In the event of any such investments, acquisitions or joint
ventures, we could:
- issue stock that would dilute our current stockholders' percentage
ownership;
- incur debt;
- assume liabilities;
- incur amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible
assets; or
- incur large and immediate write-offs.
These investments, acquisitions or joint ventures also involve numerous
risks, including:
- problems combining the purchased operations, technologies or products
with ours;
- unanticipated costs;
- diversion of managements' attention from our core business;
14
<PAGE> 16
- adverse effects on existing business relationships with suppliers and
customers;
- potential loss of key employees, particularly those of the acquired
organizations; and
- reliance to our disadvantage on the judgment and decisions of third
parties and lack of control over the operations of a joint venture
partner.
Any acquisition or joint venture may cause our financial results to suffer
as a result of these risks. In July 2000, we entered into an agreement to
acquire Wakely Software, Inc. for total consideration of stock and cash valued
at approximately $18 million on July 17, 2000, excluding transaction costs. If
consummated, the acquisition of Wakely Software could subject us to these risks.
In addition, the acquisition of Wakely Software is subject to a number of
closing conditions, including our right to terminate the acquisition if it is
determined that Wakely Software would be a significant subsidiary of us.
IF WE ARE SUBJECT TO INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LITIGATION, WE MAY INCUR SUBSTANTIAL
COSTS, WHICH WOULD HARM OUR OPERATING RESULTS.
Our success and ability to compete are dependent on our ability to operate
without infringing upon the proprietary rights of others. Any intellectual
property litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources
and could significantly harm our business and operating results. In the past, we
received correspondence from two patent holders recommending that we license
their respective patents. After review of these patents, we informed these
patent holders that in our opinion, it would not be necessary to license these
patents. However, we may be required to license either or both patents or incur
legal fees to defend our position that such licenses are not necessary. We
cannot assure you that if required to do so, we would be able to obtain a
license to use either patent on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
Any threat of intellectual property litigation could force us to do one or
more of the following:
- cease selling, incorporating or using products or services that
incorporate the challenged intellectual property;
- obtain from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right a
license to sell or use the relevant intellectual property, which license
may not be available on reasonable terms;
- redesign those products or services that incorporate such intellectual
property; or
- pay money damages to the holder of the infringed intellectual property
right.
In the event of a successful claim of infringement against us and our
failure or inability to license the infringed intellectual property on
reasonable terms or license a substitute intellectual property or redesign our
product to avoid infringement, our business and operating results would be
significantly harmed. If we are forced to abandon use of our trademark, we may
be forced to change our name and incur substantial expenses to build a new
brand, which would significantly harm our business and operating results.
RESTRICTIONS ON EXPORT OF ENCRYPTED TECHNOLOGY COULD CAUSE US TO INCUR DELAYS IN
INTERNATIONAL PRODUCT SALES, WHICH WOULD ADVERSELY IMPACT THE EXPANSION AND
GROWTH OF OUR BUSINESS.
Our software utilizes encryption technology, the export of which is
regulated by the United States government. If our export authority is revoked or
modified, if our software is unlawfully exported or if the United States adopts
new legislation restricting export of software and encryption technology, we may
experience delay or reduction in shipment of our products internationally.
Current or future export regulations could limit our ability to distribute our
products outside of the
15
<PAGE> 17
United States. While we take precautions against unlawful exportation of our
software, we cannot effectively control the unauthorized distribution of
software across the Internet.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO EXPAND OUR OPERATIONS INTERNATIONALLY OR ARE UNABLE TO
MANAGE THE GREATER COLLECTIONS, MANAGEMENT, HIRING, LEGAL, REGULATORY AND
CURRENCY RISKS FROM THESE INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS, OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING
RESULTS WILL BE HARMED.
We intend to expand our operations internationally. This expansion may be
more difficult or take longer than we anticipate, and we may not be able to
successfully market, sell or deliver our products internationally. If successful
in our international expansion, we will be subject to a number of risks
associated with international operations, including:
- longer accounts receivable collection cycles;
- expenses associated with localizing products for foreign markets;
- difficulties in managing operations across disparate geographic areas;
- difficulties in hiring qualified local personnel;
- difficulties associated with enforcing agreements and collecting
receivables through foreign legal systems;
- unexpected changes in regulatory requirements that impose multiple
conflicting tax laws and regulations; and
- fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the possible lack of financial
stability in foreign countries that prevent overseas sales growth.
RISKS RELATED TO THE INDUSTRY
IF USE OF THE INTERNET DOES NOT CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND RELIABLY SUPPORT THE
DEMANDS PLACED ON IT BY ELECTRONIC COMMERCE, THE MARKET FOR OUR PRODUCTS AND
SERVICES MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED, AND WE MAY NOT ACHIEVE ANTICIPATED SALES
GROWTH.
Growth in sales of our products and services depends upon the continued and
increased use of the Internet as a medium for commerce and communication. Growth
in the use of the Internet is a recent phenomenon and may not continue. In
addition, the Internet infrastructure may not be able to support the demands
placed on it by increased usage and bandwidth requirements. There have also been
recent well-publicized security breaches involving "denial of service" attacks
on major web sites. Concerns over these and other security breaches may slow the
adoption of electronic commerce by businesses, while privacy concerns over
inadequate security of information distributed over the Internet may also slow
the adoption of electronic commerce by individual consumers. Other risks
associated with commercial use of the Internet could slow its growth, including:
- inadequate reliability of the network infrastructure;
- slow development of enabling technologies and complementary products; and
- limited accessibility and ability to deliver quality service.
In addition, the recent growth in the use of the Internet has caused
frequent periods of poor or slow performance, requiring components of the
Internet infrastructure to be upgraded. Delays in the development or adoption of
new equipment and standards or protocols required to handle increased
16
<PAGE> 18
levels of Internet activity, or increased government regulation, could cause the
Internet to lose its viability as a commercial medium. If the Internet
infrastructure does not develop sufficiently to address these concerns, it may
not develop as a commercial marketplace, which is necessary for us to increase
sales.
INCREASING GOVERNMENT REGULATION OF THE INTERNET COULD LIMIT THE MARKET FOR OUR
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, OR IMPOSE GREATER TAX BURDENS ON US OR LIABILITY FOR
TRANSMISSION OF PROTECTED DATA.
As electronic commerce and the Internet continue to evolve, federal, state
and foreign governments may adopt laws and regulations covering issues such as
user privacy, taxation of goods and services provided over the Internet,
pricing, content and quality of products and services. If enacted, these laws
and regulations could limit the market for electronic commerce, and therefore
the market for our products and services. Although many of these regulations may
not apply directly to our business, we expect that laws regulating the
solicitation, collection or processing of personal or consumer information could
indirectly affect our business.
Laws or regulations concerning telecommunications might also negatively
impact us. Several telecommunications companies have petitioned the Federal
Communications Commission to regulate Internet service providers and online
service providers in a manner similar to long distance telephone carriers and to
impose access fees on these companies. This type of legislation could increase
the cost of conducting business over the Internet, which could limit the growth
of electronic commerce generally and have a negative impact on our business and
operating results.
RISKS RELATED TO THIS OFFERING
BECAUSE WE ARE IN THE INTERNET INDUSTRY, OUR STOCK PRICE MAY BE PARTICULARLY
VOLATILE, WHICH COULD LEAD TO CLASS ACTION LITIGATION.
The stock market in general has recently experienced extreme price and
volume fluctuations. In addition, the market prices of securities of
Internet-related companies in general and our stock price in particular, have
been extremely volatile, and have experienced fluctuations that have often been
unrelated to or disproportionate to the operating performance of these
companies. For example from March 10, 2000, the date of the initial public
offering of our common stock, through July 19, 2000 our stock price has
fluctuated from $30 per share to $154.43 and has on many days fluctuated more
than 10%. The trading prices of many technology companies' stocks are at or near
historical highs and reflect valuations substantially above historical levels.
These trading prices and valuations may fall significantly. These broad market
fluctuations could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. In
addition, these fluctuations could lead to costly class action litigation that
could significantly harm our business and operating results.
In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought
against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its
securities. We may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities
litigation could result in substantial costs and divert management's attention
and resources, which could harm our business and operating results.
OUR EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTORS WILL RETAIN SUBSTANTIAL VOTING CONTROL OVER
US AFTER THE OFFERING THAT WILL ALLOW THEM TO INFLUENCE THE OUTCOME OF MATTERS
SUBMITTED TO STOCKHOLDERS FOR APPROVAL.
Our executive officers and directors and their affiliates, based on
ownership as of June 30, 2000, beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately
53% of our outstanding common stock. These stockholders will be able to exercise
significant influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including
the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions,
which
17
<PAGE> 19
could have the effect of delaying or preventing a third party from acquiring
control over us. For more information regarding the ownership of our outstanding
stock by our executive officers and directors and their affiliates, see
"Principal and Selling Stockholders."
WE HAVE VARIOUS MECHANISMS IN PLACE TO DISCOURAGE TAKEOVER ATTEMPTS THAT COULD
SUPPRESS OUR STOCK PRICE AND MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT TO ACQUIRE US.
Our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws and Delaware law contain
provisions that could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us,
even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders. These provisions
include:
- authorizing the issuance of shares of blank check preferred stock;
- providing for a classified board of directors with staggered, three year
terms; and
- prohibiting specified stockholder action by written consent.
For information regarding these and other provisions, please see
"Description of Capital Stock." We are also currently considering other
anti-takeover measures, including a stockholders' rights plan.
SUBSTANTIAL SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD DEPRESS OUR STOCK PRICE.
After this offering, we will have outstanding approximately 38 million
shares of common stock, of which approximately 9.2 million shares, including the
shares sold in this offering, plus any shares issued upon exercise of the
underwriters' over-allotment option, will be freely tradeable. The remaining
approximately 28.8 million shares of common stock outstanding after this
offering will become available for sale in the public market as follows:

If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of common stock in the public
market, including shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options, the
market price of our common stock could fall. See "Shares Eligible for Future
Sale" and "Underwriting."
AS A NEW INVESTOR, YOU WILL INCUR SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION AS A RESULT OF THIS
OFFERING AND FUTURE EQUITY ISSUANCES.
The public offering price will be substantially higher than the book value
per share of our outstanding common stock. As a result, investors purchasing
common stock in this offering will incur immediate substantial dilution. The
exercise of outstanding options and warrants would result in further dilution.
WE HAVE BROAD DISCRETION TO USE THE PROCEEDS FROM THIS OFFERING FOR PURPOSES
WITH WHICH YOU MAY NOT AGREE, AND WE MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL IN INVESTING THESE
PROCEEDS.
We plan to use the proceeds from this offering for general corporate
purposes. Therefore, we will have broad discretion as to how we will spend the
proceeds, and our stockholders may not agree with the ways in which we use the
proceeds. We may not be successful in investing the proceeds from this offering
in our operations or external investments to yield a favorable return.

USE OF PROCEEDS
Our net proceeds from the sale of the 2,000,000 shares of common stock by
us in this offering are estimated to be $132,018,000, assuming a public offering
price of $70.38 and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and
commissions and estimated offering expenses. We will not receive any proceeds
from the sale of shares by selling stockholders.
We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for additional working
capital and other general corporate purposes. These operating expenses will be
offset by the degree to which we recognize revenues from the sales of our
products and services. The amounts that we actually expend for working capital
and other general corporate purposes will vary significantly depending on a
number of factors, including future revenue growth, if any, and the amount of
cash that we generate from operations. As a result, we will retain broad
discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this offering. A portion
of the net proceeds may also be used for the acquisition of businesses, products
and technologies that are complementary to ours. Other than the proposed
acquisition of Wakely Software, Inc., we have no current agreements or
commitments for acquisitions of complementary businesses, products or
technologies. Pending these uses, we will invest the net proceeds of this
offering in short-term, investment grade and interest-bearing securities.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have not paid any cash dividends since inception and do not currently
intend to pay any cash dividends.

DILUTION
Our pro forma net tangible book value as of March 31, 2000 was $210.9
million, or approximately $5.90 per share. Net tangible book value per share
represents the amount of stockholders' equity, less intangible assets divided by
35,740,291 shares of common stock outstanding.
Net tangible book value dilution per share to new investors represents the
difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of common
stock in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of common stock
immediately after completion of this offering. After giving effect to our sale
of 2,000,000 shares of common stock in this offering at an assumed public
offering price of $70.38 per share and after deducting the estimated
underwriting discounts and commissions, and estimated offering expenses, our net
tangible book value as of March 31, 2000 would have been $342.9 million or $9.09
per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of
$3.19 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net
tangible book value of $61.29 per share to purchasers of common stock in the
offering, as illustrated in the following table:

The following table summarizes, on a pro forma basis, as of March 31, 2000,
the differences between the number of shares of common stock purchased from us,
the total consideration paid and the average price per share paid by existing
stockholders and by the new investors purchasing shares in this offering. We
have used an assumed public offering price of $70.38 per share, and we have not
deducted estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering
expenses in our calculations.

exercise of any outstanding stock options. The exercise of stock options
outstanding under our stock option plans having an exercise price less than the
offering price would increase the dilutive effect to new investors.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements that appear
elsewhere in this prospectus.
OVERVIEW
Selectica is a leading provider of Internet selling system software and
services that enable companies to efficiently sell complex products and services
over intranets, extranets and the Internet. Our ACE suite of software products
is a comprehensive Internet selling system solution that gives sellers the
ability to manage the sales process in order to facilitate the conversion of
prospective buyers into customers. Our Internet selling system solution allows
companies to use the Internet platform to deploy a selling application to many
points of contact, including personal computers, in-store kiosks and mobile
devices, while offering customers, partners and employees an interface
customized to their specific needs.
History
Selectica was incorporated in June 1996 and acquired the technology and
assets of Catalogics Software Corporation, a development stage Internet software
company founded by Dr. Sanjay Mittal, a co-founder of Selectica, in July 1996.
Selectica was a development-stage company until October 1997. In October 1997,
we released our first version of ACE, which consisted of the ACE Enterprise
Server and ACE Studio. During the following year, we primarily licensed our
products to businesses for pilot programs that involved limited deployments.
Beginning in calendar 1999, we licensed our products for larger scale
deployments and continued to develop and market our ACE suite of products,
expanding our product offering with ACE Enterprise Manager, ACE Quoter and ACE
Mobile. In November 1999, we released the current version of ACE, ACE 4.0, and
expanded our product offering with ACE Repository and ACE Connector.
In addition to our engineering and professional services employees based in
San Jose, California, we provide professional services and perform quality
assurance testing with the assistance of Selectica Configurators India Private
Limited, or Selectica India, a corporation located in Pune, India. Selectica
India was formed in June 1997. From June 1997 through July 1999, we purchased
services from Selectica India on an arms-length contract basis. In July 1999, we
completed an agreement to acquire a 99.9% ownership of Selectica India, making
it a subsidiary of Selectica, Inc. As of June 30, 2000, there were 184 employees
of Selectica India. Because we believe that Selectica India provides us with a
strategic advantage in advancing our product development and consulting
activities, we plan to continue expanding this operation. See "Related Party
Transactions -- Selectica Configurators India Pvt. Ltd."
Revenues
We enter into arrangements for the sale of (1) licenses of our software
products and related maintenance contract; (2) bundled license, maintenance, and
services; and (3) services on a time and material basis. In instances where
maintenance is bundled with a license of our software products, such maintenance
term is typically one year.
For each arrangement, we determine whether evidence of an arrangement
exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection
is probable. If any of these criteria are not met, revenue recognition is
deferred until such time as all of the criteria are met.
24
<PAGE> 26
For those contracts that consist solely of license and maintenance we
recognize license revenues based upon the residual method after all elements
other than maintenance have been delivered and recognize maintenance revenues
over the term of the maintenance contract as vendor specific objective evidence
of fair value for maintenance does exist.
Services can consist of maintenance, training and/or consulting services.
Consulting services include a range of services including installation of our
off-the-shelf software, customization of our software for the customer's
specific application, data conversion and building of interfaces to allow our
software to operate in customized environments.
In all cases, we assess whether the service element of the arrangement is
essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement. In this
determination we focus on whether the software is off-the-shelf software,
whether the services include significant alterations to the features and
functionality of the software, whether the services involve the building of
complex interfaces, the timing of payments and the existence of milestones.
Often the installation of our software requires the building of interfaces to
the customer's existing applications or customization of the software for
specific applications. As a result, judgement is required in the determination
of whether such services constitute "complex" interfaces. In making this
determination we consider the following: (1) the relative fair value of the
services compared to the software, (2) the amount of time and effort subsequent
to delivery of the software until the interfaces or other modifications are
completed, (3) the degree of technical difficulty in building of the interface
and uniqueness of the application, (4) the degree of involvement of customer
personnel, and (5) any contractual cancellation, acceptance, or termination
provisions for failure to complete the interfaces. We also consider refunds,
forfeitures and concessions when determining the significance of such services.
In those instances where we determine that the service elements are
essential to the other elements of the arrangement, we account for the entire
arrangement using contract accounting.
For those arrangements accounted for using contract accounting that do not
include contractual milestones or other acceptance criteria we utilize the
percentage of completion method based upon input measures of hours. For those
contracts that include contract milestones or acceptance criteria we recognize
revenue as such milestones are achieved or as such acceptance occurs.
In some instances the acceptance criteria in the contract requires
acceptance after all services are complete and all other elements have been
delivered. In these instances we recognize revenue based upon the completed
contract method after such acceptance has occurred.
For those arrangements for which we have concluded that the service element
is not essential to the other elements of the arrangement we determine whether
the services are available from other vendors, do not involve a significant
degree of risk or unique acceptance criteria, and whether we have sufficient
experience in providing the service to be able to separately account for the
service. When the service qualifies for separate accounting we use vendor
specific objective evidence for the fair value of the services and the
maintenance to account for the arrangement using the residual method, regardless
of any separate prices stated within the contract for each element.
Vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of services is based upon
hourly rates. As noted above, we enter into contracts for services alone and
such contracts are based upon time and material basis. Such hourly rates are
used to assess the vendor specific objective evidence in multiple element
arrangements.
In accordance with paragraph 10 of Statement of Position 97-2, Software
Revenue Recognition, vendor specific objective evidence of fair value of
maintenance is determined by reference to the price the customer will be
required to pay when it is sold separately (that is, the renewal rate), which is
25
<PAGE> 27
based on the price established by management having the relevant authority. Each
license agreement offers additional maintenance renewal periods at a stated
price. Maintenance contracts are typically one year in duration. To date we have
had four maintenance contracts come up for renewal for which the customer
elected to renew such maintenance contracts. We believe that given the nature of
our products as selling solutions for the Internet, our customers view
maintenance of those products as important to their business and will continue
to need upgrades and support of licensed products. As a result, we believe
renewals will occur in the future as more contracts come up for renewal.
To date we have not entered into arrangements solely for license of our
products and, therefore, we have not demonstrated vendor specific objective
evidence for the fair value of the license element.
In all cases we classify revenues for these arrangements as license
revenues and services revenues based on the estimates of fair value for each
element.
For the year ended March 31, 2000, we recognized 45% of license revenues
under the residual method, 28% under the percentage-of-completion method, and
23% using the completed contract method. For the fiscal year ended March 31,
1999 we recognized 63% of license and services revenues under the
percentage-of-completion method and 36% using the completed contract method.
Because we rely on a limited number of customers, the timing of customer
acceptance or milestone achievement, or the amount of services we provide to a
single customer can significantly affect our operating results. For example, our
services revenues declined significantly in the quarter ended June 30, 1999 due
to the completion of services under a contract with BMW of North America, one of
our significant customers. Our license and services revenues increased
significantly in the quarters ended September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1999
generally due to the addition of two new customers in each respective quarter.
Customer billing occurs in accordance with contract terms. Customer
advances and amounts billed to customers in excess of revenue recognized are
recorded as deferred revenue. Amounts recognized as revenue in advance of
billing (typically under percentage-of-completion accounting) are recorded as
unbilled receivables.
Factors Affecting Operating Results
A relatively small number of customers account for a significant portion of
our total revenues. For the year ended March 31, 2000, revenue from Samsung SDS,
LVMH Group, 3Com Corporation, and Fireman's Fund accounted for 12%, 12%, 10%,
and 10% of our revenues, respectively. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999,
revenue from BMW of North America and Olicom accounted for 60% and 10% of our
revenues, respectively. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998, revenue from
Hewlett-Packard of Germany, Ascend Communications, InterVoice and Insight
accounted for 45%, 27%, 16% and 12% of our total revenues, respectively. We
expect that revenues from a limited number of customers will continue to account
for a large percentage of total revenues in future quarters.
To date, our revenues have been predominantly attributable to sales in the
United States. We plan to expand our international operations significantly,
because we believe international markets represent a significant growth
opportunity. Consequently, we expect that international revenues will increase
as a percentage of total revenues in the future. The expansion of our
international operations will be subject to a variety of risks that could
significantly harm our business and operating results. As our international
sales and operations expand, we anticipate that our exposure to foreign currency
fluctuations will increase because we have not adopted a hedging program to
protect us from risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations.
26
<PAGE> 28
We have a limited operating history upon which we may be evaluated. We have
incurred significant losses since inception and, as of March 31, 2000, we had an
accumulated deficit of approximately $43.1 million. We believe our success
depends on the continued growth of our customer base and the development of the
emerging Internet selling system market. Accordingly, we intend to continue to
invest heavily in sales and marketing and research and development. Furthermore,
we expect to continue to incur substantial operating losses for the foreseeable
future.
In view of the rapidly changing nature of our business and our limited
operating history, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of revenues and
operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon
as indications of future performance. Our limited operating history makes it
difficult to forecast future operating results. Additionally, despite our recent
revenue growth, we do not believe that historical growth rates are necessarily
sustainable or indicative of future growth and we cannot be certain that
revenues will increase. Even if we were to achieve profitability in any period,
we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual
basis.
Equity Transactions
During October 1999, we issued, 1,505,702 shares of Series E Preferred
Stock to various investors, including parties related to us, for gross proceeds
of $6,597,986. Of this amount, $23,000 related to the exercise of warrants to
purchase 5,250 shares of Series E Preferred Stock issued in connection with the
convertible debt financing in May 1999. We issued 1,500,452 of these shares at
$4.382 per share while the deemed fair value of such preferred stock at that
date was approximately $7.70. As a result, in the third quarter of fiscal 2000
we recorded $5.0 million of charges related to the difference between the actual
issuance price of the preferred stock and its deemed fair value. Of this amount,
$266,000 was accounted for as compensation expense, $925,000 was accounted for
as a dividend to stockholders in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 and the
remaining amount will be amortized over an approximate two-year period in
connection with a development agreement entered into in September 1999 with
Intel, one of the investors. As of March 31, 2000 approximately $946,000 had
been amortized.
Under the terms of the development agreement with Intel, we will work with
Intel to port the current suite of ACE products to additional platforms. In
connection with the development agreement, we issued warrants to purchase 57,000
shares of Series E convertible Preferred Stock. The warrants were issued in
December 1999 and were valued using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The value
of the warrants is approximately $381,000 and this amount will be expensed over
the remaining life of the development agreement, which will be approximately two
years. As of March 31, 2000, approximately $65,000 had been amortized.
On January 7, 2000, in connection with a license agreement entered into in
November 1999 and one year maintenance agreement of $3.0 million, we issued a
warrant to purchase 800,000 shares of common stock to one of our customers, for
$800,000. The warrant is fully vested, has a life of two years, and an exercise
price per share of $13. The value of the warrant is approximately $16.4 million
and was determined based upon a Black-Scholes valuation model. The value of the
warrant, less the warrant purchase price of $800,000, is greater than the
revenues associated with the license and maintenance agreement, and accordingly,
we recorded a loss of approximately $9.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2000.
Between January 1, 2000 and March 31, 2000, an aggregate of 2,237,200
options to purchase common stock were granted at a weighted average price of
$17.72 We have recorded deferred compensation related to these options of
approximately $6.7 million representing the difference
27
<PAGE> 29
between the exercise price of the options granted and the deemed fair value of
our common stock at the date of grant.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Selectica reports financial results on a fiscal year basis ending March 31.
Therefore, the following references to years relate to our fiscal years.
FISCAL YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000, 1999, AND 1998
Revenues
Our revenues increased to $16.1 million in fiscal 2000 from $3.4 million in
fiscal 1999 from $170,000 in fiscal 1998, representing increases of 367% and
1932%, respectively. We believe that the future percentage increase in revenues
will be significantly less than what has been achieved in prior years.
License. License revenues increased to $9.2 million in fiscal 2000 from
$1.7 million in fiscal 1999 from $170,000 in fiscal 1998, representing increases
of 454% and 877%, respectively. The increase in license revenues was primarily
due to the addition of new customers as a result of expanded marketing
activities, growth in our sales force, and greater demand for and the acceptance
of our ACE suite of products. We intend to generate additional license revenues
from our existing customers and anticipate that this number will increase in
absolute dollars in future periods, although it will fluctuate as a percentage
of total revenues as our customers and size of transactions change.
Services. Services revenues increased to $6.9 million in fiscal 2000 from
$1.8 million in fiscal 1999 from none in fiscal 1998, representing an increase
of 286% from 1999 to 2000. Our services revenues are comprised of fees from
consulting, maintenance and training services. The increases in both fiscal 1999
and fiscal 2000 were due primarily to the increase in maintenance and
maintenance renewals, consulting, and training services associated with
increased sales of our products. We expect services revenues to continue to
increase in terms of absolute dollars in future periods as the number of
consulting projects and maintenance contracts increases with the addition of new
customers.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of License Revenues. Cost of license revenues consists of the costs of
the product media, duplication, packaging and delivery of our software products
to our customers, which may include documentation, shipping and other data
transmission costs. Cost of license revenues increased to $4.5 million in fiscal
2000, from $184,000 in fiscal 1999 from $9,000 in fiscal 1998, representing 49%,
11%, and 5% of license revenues, respectively. The increase in fiscal 2000 was
primarily due to a non-recurring $4.1 million warrant charge associated with a
license agreement entered into in November 1999. We expect cost of license
revenues to maintain levels as a percentage of license revenues consistent with
fiscal 1999.
Cost of Services Revenues, including Related Party. Cost of services
revenue is comprised mainly of salaries and related expenses of our services
organization. For the fiscal years 1999 and 1998 and through the three months
ended June 30, 1999, cost of services revenues excludes expenses of our
professional services organization in Pune, India, which are included in costs
of services revenues -- related party. Cost of services revenues including cost
of services from a related party, increased to $14.7 million in fiscal 2000 from
$1.2 million in fiscal 1999 from $51,000 in fiscal 1998, representing 213% and
66% of services revenues for fiscal 2000 and fiscal 1999, respectively. Of the
$13.5 million increase in cost of services revenues for fiscal 2000, $5.6
million was attributable to a
28
<PAGE> 30
non-recurring warrant charge associated with a license agreement entered into in
November 1999. $2.6 million was due to increased personnel and related expenses
in our services organization to support the increase in the amount of
professional services provided to our customers. The increase in cost of
services revenues in fiscal 2000 was also attributable to $2.1 million to
support our subsidiary in India and $1.8 million to increased travel and
accommodations expenses to client locations as well as consulting fees to system
integrators. We anticipate that cost of services revenues will increase in
absolute dollars in future periods as our number of customers increases. In
addition, with respect to the warrants associated with the revenue contracts, we
expect to amortize $5.9 million as an offset to revenue for fiscal 2001. We
expect cost of services revenues to fluctuate as a percentage of service
revenue.
GROSS PROFIT
The increase in services revenues has resulted in reduced overall gross
margins, since services revenues typically have lower gross margins than license
revenues. For fiscal 2000, we experienced negative gross margins for services
revenues due to a $5.6 million warrant charge associated with a license
agreement entered into in November 1999 and due to the timing of services
revenues recognition. We expect that our overall gross margins will continue to
fluctuate due to the timing of services and license revenue recognition and will
continue to be adversely affected by the lower margins on our service contracts.
The amount of impact on our gross profit will depend on the mix of services we
provide, whether the services are performed by our in-house staff or third party
consultants, and the overall utilization rates of our professional services
organization.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Research and Development. Our research and development costs primarily
consist of salaries and related costs of our engineering, quality assurance, and
technical publications efforts. Research and development costs increased to $7.3
million in fiscal 2000 from $3.9 million in fiscal 1999 from $2.0 million in
fiscal 1998, representing increases of 89% and 100%, respectively. In fiscal
2000, the increase of $3.5 million was attributable to $2.8 million in increased
personnel and related expenses, including $116,000 in amortization of deferred
compensation, from the hiring of additional technical personnel to support the
development of ACE 4.0. The remaining $600,000 consists of $1.0 million of
amortization from the development agreement entered into with Intel offset by a
reduction in the allocation of overhead costs. The $1.9 million increase in
research and development costs in fiscal 1999 was primarily due to our increased
personnel and related expenses of $1.3 million. We believe our investment in
research and development will increase in absolute dollars in future periods.
Sales and Marketing. Our sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of
salaries and related costs for our sales and marketing organization and
marketing programs, including trade shows, collateral, sales materials, and
advertising. Sales and marketing expenses increased to $17.0 million in fiscal
2000 from $4.4 million in fiscal 1999 from $1.1 million fiscal 1998,
representing increases of 284% and 320%, respectively. The $12.6 million
increase in fiscal 2000 is primarily due to $7.5 million from the hiring of
additional sales and marketing personnel, including increased sales commissions
resulting from higher revenues, and $737,000 of amortization of deferred
compensation. Also in fiscal 2000, we incurred $2.9 million in increased
expenses in the areas of marketing programs and sales related travel. The $3.4
million increase in sales and marketing expenses in fiscal 1999 is primarily
attributable to increases in payroll expenses of $1.9 million from the hiring of
additional sales and marketing personnel and $742,000 relating to increased
marketing activities. We expect that sales and marketing expenses will increase
in absolute dollars over the next year as we hire additional sales and marketing
personnel, increase spending on advertising and marketing programs and establish
sales offices in additional and international locations.
29
<PAGE> 31
General and Administrative. Our general and administrative expenses consist
primarily of personnel and related costs for general corporate functions,
including finance, accounting, legal, human resources and facilities as well as
information system expenses not allocated to other departments. General and
administrative expenses increased to $4.6 million in fiscal 2000 from $1.4
million in fiscal 1999 from $293,000 in fiscal 1998, representing increases of
228% and 375%, respectively. In fiscal 2000, we experienced an increase of $3.2
million primarily due to an increase of $1.7 million in payroll and payroll
related expenses, including $247,000 in amortization of deferred compensation.
We also incurred $930,000 for other legal and professional fees associated with
enhancing our infrastructure to support expansion of our operations and to a
lesser extent, an increase in the provision for the allowance for doubtful
accounts. The $1.1 million increase in general and administrative expenses in
fiscal 1999 primarily resulted from a $495,000 increase in payroll expenses due
to hiring additional administrative and support personnel and $370,000 in
increased legal and accounting fees to support our overall growth. We expect
that general and administrative expenses will increase in absolute dollars over
the next year as we assume the responsibilities of a public company and as we
hire additional general and administrative personnel.
INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME, NET
Interest and other income, net primarily consists of interest earned on
cash balances and stockholders notes receivable, offset by interest expense
related to convertible debt issued in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 and
converted in the same quarter. Interest and other income, net increased to $1.2
million in fiscal 2000 from $99,000 in fiscal 1999 and from $87,000 in fiscal
1998. The significant increase of $1.1 million in fiscal 2000 resulted primarily
from interest income on our initial public offering net proceeds of $194.2
million, which was completed on March 10, 2000.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
We have recorded a tax provision of $50,000 for the year ended March 31,
2000. The provision for income taxes consists primarily of state income taxes
and foreign taxes.
FASB Statement No. 109 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets
if realization of such assets is more likely than not. Based upon the weight of
available evidence, which includes our historical operating performance and the
reported cumulative net losses in all prior years, we have provided a full
valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets. We intend to evaluate
the realizability of the deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis.

QUARTERLY RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table sets forth, for the periods presented, selected data
from our consolidated statements of operations. The data has been derived from
our unaudited consolidated financial statements, and, in the opinion of our
management, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for these periods. This unaudited information should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included
elsewhere in this prospectus. The operating results in any quarter are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future
period. We have incurred losses in each quarter since inception and expect to
continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future.

Total revenues declined significantly in the quarter ended June 30, 1999
due to the completion of a services contract with a single customer, and
increased significantly in the quarter ended September 30, 1999 primarily as a
result of the addition of two new customers. Revenues for the quarter ended
December 31, 1999 increased by $1.1 million primarily due to the increase in the
number of customers during the quarter, including two customers which, in the
aggregate, comprised approximately 41% of total revenues for the quarter. We
experience significant variability in license and services revenues from quarter
to quarter due to our dependence on a limited number of customers, the large
transaction size of contracts with these customers, the timing of customer
acceptance and the timing of milestone achievement under contracts with
recognition of revenues on a percentage-of-completion basis. Gross profit has
also fluctuated as a result of increased investment in the development of our
customer support and consulting organizations to support the increase in
professional services provided to our customers. Cost of services revenues are
affected by our allocation of overhead costs by department based upon headcount.
As headcount in our professional services organization has increased as a
percentage of overall headcount from fiscal 1999 through the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2000, an increasing percentage of overhead costs were allocated to cost
of services revenues, resulting in a corresponding reduction in the allocation
of overhead costs to research and development, sales and marketing and general
and administrative expenses in those quarters. We expect gross margin to
continue to fluctuate as a result of continued variation in the mix of our
revenues between high margin license revenues and lower margin services
revenues.
Cost of revenues increased by $11.6 million during the quarter ended March
31, 2000 primarily due to the non-recurring charge associated with a license
agreement entered into in November 1999. Charges associated with this agreement
in the quarter ended March 31, 2000 increased cost of license revenues by $4.1
million and increased cost of services revenues by $5.6 million, cost of
services revenues also increased by $650,000 due to increased headcount during
the quarter.
Our operating expenses have increased significantly from inception through
fiscal 2000 as we have transitioned from development stage to the
commercialization of our services. Research and development expenses fluctuated
from the end of fiscal 1999 through fiscal 2000, with an increase in the quarter
ended June 30, 1999 as a result of the payment of a $544,000 bonus to our Chief
Technology Officer, offset by a reduction in the allocation of overhead costs.
Sales and marketing expenses increased significantly through fiscal 2000 as a
result of the additional hiring of sales and marketing personnel, including our
Vice President of Sales, Americas and Vice President of Marketing, increased
sales commissions resulting from higher revenues and increased advertising and
promotion expenses, offset by a reduction in the allocation of overhead costs.
General and administrative expenses increased significantly through fiscal 2000
as a result of an increase in payroll expenses due to hiring additional
administrative and support personnel and an increase in legal and accounting
services, offset by a reduction in the allocation of overhead costs.
We plan to increase our operating expenses as we continue to increase sales
and marketing operations, expand our professional services organization and
continue to fund research and development. Consequently, our losses will
increase in the future. Although we have experienced revenue growth in recent
periods, we cannot be certain that such growth will continue at its current rate
or at all. If our revenue growth is slower than we anticipate or our operating
expenses exceed our expectations, our losses will be significantly greater.
During October and November 1999, we issued a total of 1,505,702 shares of
Series E Preferred Stock to various investors, including 261,981 shares to
related parties and a member of our board of directors, of which 5,250 shares
were a result of exercise of warrants to purchase stock, 79,871 shares to our
officers, 22,820 shares to unrelated parties and 1,141,030 shares to an investor
who will work with us to port the current suite of ACE products to additional
platforms. Gross proceeds from these issuances were $6,597,986. Excluding those
related to warrant exercises, the shares were issued at
32
<PAGE> 34
$4.382 per share while the deemed fair value of our preferred stock at that date
was approximately $7.70, 110% of the deemed fair value of our common stock on
the date of the closing of Series E convertible Preferred Stock. We recorded
approximately $5.0 million of charges related to cheap stock valuation in the
third quarter of fiscal 2000. Of this amount, approximately $925,000 was
accounted for as a dividend to stockholders, approximately $190,000 as sales and
marketing compensation expense, and approximately $76,000 as general and
administrative compensation expense. The remaining $3.8 million will be
amortized over a two-year period in connection with a development agreement with
one of our investors. Amortization of the development agreement in the amount of
$1.0 million was recorded in the year ended March 31, 2000, consistent with the
level of our efforts in the area of research and development.
In the past, our quarterly operating results have varied significantly, and
we expect these fluctuations to continue. Future operating results may vary
depending on a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control.
In the short term, we expect our quarterly revenues to be significantly
dependent on the sale of a small number of relatively large orders for our
products and services. In addition, our products and services generally have a
long sales cycle. As a result, our quarterly revenues may fluctuate
significantly if we are unable to complete one or more substantial sales in any
given quarter. In many cases, we recognize revenues from licenses and services
on a percentage-of-completion basis. Deployment of our products requires a
substantial commitment of resources by our customers or their consultants over
an extended period of time. The time required to complete a deployment may vary
from customer to customer and may be protracted due to unforeseen circumstances.
Our ability to recognize these revenues thus may be delayed if we are unable to
meet milestones on a timely basis. We intend to significantly increase our
operating expenses for the foreseeable future. Because these expenses are
relatively fixed in the near term, any shortfall in anticipated revenues could
cause our quarterly operating results to fall below anticipated levels.
We may also experience seasonality in revenues. For example, our quarterly
results may fluctuate based upon our customers' calendar year budgeting cycles.
These seasonal variations may lead to fluctuations in our quarterly revenues and
operating results.
Based upon the foregoing, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of
our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and that such
comparisons should not be relied upon as indications of future performance. In
some future quarter, our operating results may be below the expectations of
public market analysts and investors, which could cause volatility or a decline
in the price of our common stock.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of March 31, 2000, cash and cash equivalents totaled $215.8 million,
compared to no cash at March 31, 1999. We currently have no significant capital
commitments other than obligations under operating leases.
We have funded our operations with proceeds from the private sale of
capital stock, and the public sale of our common stock. Our initial public
offering and simultaneous private placement during March 2000 netted proceeds of
$194.2 million. Cash used by operating activities for the years ended March 31,
2000 and 1999 was $1.5 million and $6.6 million, respectively. Cash used in
operations for fiscal 2000 was primarily a result of our net loss offset by a
$17.2 million increase in deferred revenues and a $9.7 million non-recurring
warrant charge associated with a license agreement entered into in November
1999.
Cash used for investing activities for the years ended March 31, 2000 and
1999 was $6.2 million and $731,000, respectively. Investing activities consisted
primarily of capital expenditures.
33
<PAGE> 35
Cash provided by financing activities for the years ended March 31, 2000
and 1999 was $223.5 million and $7.1 million, respectively. Financing activities
consisted primarily of proceeds from the issuance of stock, and to a lesser
extent, proceeds from borrowings.
We expect to experience growth in our operating expenses in absolute
dollars for the foreseeable future in order to execute our business plan. As a
result, we anticipate that operating expenses and planned capital expenditures
will constitute a material use of our cash resources. Our capital requirements
depend on numerous factors, including developing, marketing, selling and
supporting our products, the timing and extent of establishing international
operations, and other factors. We expect to devote substantial resources to hire
additional research and development personnel to support the development of new
products and new versions of existing products. Sales and marketing expenses are
expected to increase in absolute dollars as we hire additional sales and
marketing personnel, increase spending on advertising and marketing programs and
establish sales offices in additional domestic and international locations.
General and administrative expenses are expected to increase in absolute dollars
as we assume the responsibilities of a public company and as we hire additional
general and administrative personnel.
In June 2000, we approved the purchase of 22,500 square feet of office
space in Pune, India for approximately $1.4 million.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 1998, the AICPA issued SOP No. 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. SOP No. 98-1 requires
entities to capitalize certain costs related to internal-use software once
certain criteria have been met. The adoption of SOP No. 98-1 does not have a
material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
We implemented SOP No. 98-1 in the current fiscal year.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 133
establishes methods for derivative financial instruments and hedging activities
related to those instruments, as well as other hedging activities. Because we do
not currently hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in hedging
activities, we expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will not have a material
impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We will
be required to implement SFAS No. 133 for the year ending March 31, 2002.
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB
101 provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of
revenue in financial statements. SAB 101 is effective for years beginning after
December 15, 1999 and is required to be reported beginning in the quarter ended
March 31, 2001. SAB 101 is not expected to have a significant effect on the
Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB
Interpretation No. 44 ("FIN 44"), "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving
Stock Compensation -- an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25." FIN 44 clarifies
the application of APB Opinion No. 25 and, among other issues, clarifies the
following: the definition of an employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion
No. 25; the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a
noncompensatory plan; the accounting consequence of various modifications to the
terms of the previously fixed stock options or awards; and the accounting for an
exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. FIN 44 is
effective July 1, 2000, but certain conclusions in FIN 44 cover specific events
that occurred after either December 15, 1998 or January 12, 2000. We do not
expect the application of FIN 44 to have a material impact on our financial
position or results of operations.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
We develop products in the United States and India and sell them worldwide.
As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes
in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign
markets. Since our sales are currently priced in U.S. dollars and are translated
to local currency amounts, a strengthening of the dollar could make our products
less competitive in foreign markets. Interest income is sensitive to changes in
the general level of U.S. interest rates, particularly since our investments are
in short-term instruments calculated at variable rates.
We established policies and business practices regarding our investment
portfolio to preserve principal while obtaining reasonable rates of return
without significantly increasing risk. We place investments with high credit
quality issuers according to our investment policy. We do not use derivative
financial instruments in our investment portfolio. All investments are carried
at cost, which approximates market value. Due to the short-term nature of our
investments and the immaterial amount of our debt obligation, we believe that
there is no material exposure to interest fluctuation. Therefore, no
accompanying table has been provided.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND
Evolution of Electronic Commerce
The Internet is transforming the business environment by increasing
competition and enabling the development of new business models. People,
businesses and other organizations are using the Internet as a platform to
communicate, collaborate, access information and conduct business with greater
speed and efficiency. As a result, business-to-business, business-to-consumer
and business-to-employee interactions are being fundamentally altered. In order
to remain competitive, companies must find innovative ways to sell, increase
efficiencies in the sales cycle and deliver greater customer satisfaction.
Forrester Research estimates that the combined value of business-to-consumer and
business-to-business transactions conducted via the Internet will grow to over
$1.4 trillion by 2003. A growing number of companies are seeking to leverage the
Internet to market and sell their products and services. To date, many
electronic commerce transactions have been simple purchases of products such as
books, compact discs, stocks and toys. We believe, however, that the growth in
electronic commerce will be driven by the ability of companies to complete
complex transactions such as business-to-business electronic commerce and the
sale of consumer products and services involving multiple features, options or
involving custom pricing or service options.
Complexity in Electronic Commerce
Complexity in the selling process manifests itself in many ways. One type
is product complexity, where the product has many possible features, with
factors interacting with one another and with other factors to influence the
performance or manufacturability of that item. Examples of complex products
include networking and telecommunications equipment, automobiles and computers.
A second type of complexity is needs complexity, in which the product or service
itself may be relatively simple, such as an insurance policy or a printer, but
the factors that go into evaluating a specific customer's needs and pairing
those needs with the optimal product or service may be complex. A third type of
complexity comes from flexible or customized pricing and discounting schemes,
including those based on the features of the product.
The completion of a complex sales transaction depends on a seller's ability
to identify and satisfy a buyer's needs. In traditional sales, companies rely on
trained salespeople to interact with customers
36
<PAGE> 38
to address customer needs, explain product features and ultimately consummate
the sale. To date, many electronic commerce web sites have been static
collections of non-interactive content, and have limited ability to assist and
guide a customer through a purchase decision. Using the Internet to complete
complex sales transactions, however, requires businesses to implement a
sophisticated system that performs the traditional role of the salesperson
throughout the sales lifecycle of the products and services. We believe that
such a system must also be able to take advantage of the emergence of the
Internet as an application platform.
The Internet as an Emerging Platform for Business Applications
In parallel with the growth of electronic commerce, the Internet is
becoming a technology platform for business application deployment.
Traditionally, companies seeking to improve their operations have implemented
applications such as ERP, customer relationship management, or CRM, or sales
force automation, or SFA, software based on client-server architectures that
require a significant part of the application to be loaded on every user's
computer. With the emergence of the Internet platform, companies are able to
more broadly and cost effectively deploy business applications to customers,
partners and employees and make the most current application and information
immediately available on Internet-enabled devices. We believe that a selling
application based on the Internet platform offers significant advantages over
one based on traditional client-server architectures, such as the ability to be
deployed on a broad range of browser-enabled devices and easy integration with
other Internet-based applications and legacy systems, including those running on
relational database management systems, or RDBMS.
Limitations of Existing Solutions
Until recently, businesses have generally attempted to address the
challenges of complexity in the selling process by building in-house solutions.
These solutions often require significant up-front development costs and lengthy
deployment periods. Furthermore, due to the rapid pace of change in products and
business processes, companies often find it difficult and expensive to maintain
these systems and integrate new functionality and technologies. As a result,
businesses are seeking to implement third-party packaged applications.
Current commercially available software designed to help companies address
the challenges of complexity in the selling process may have one or more of the
following limitations:
- have not been engineered for the Internet platform and as such are not
easily deployed across a broad range of Internet-enabled devices;
- require significant custom programming;
- provide a limited interactive experience; or
- employ application architectures that limit their scalability and
reliability.
We believe that there is a significant opportunity for an Internet selling
system that leverages the Internet platform to enable companies to efficiently
sell complex products and services using a broad range of Internet-enabled
devices.
THE SELECTICA SOLUTION
Our ACE suite of products is a comprehensive Internet selling system
solution that enables businesses to easily develop and rapidly deploy an
Internet sales channel that interactively assists their customers, partners and
employees through the selection, configuration, pricing, quoting and fulfillment
processes. Our Internet selling system solution allows companies to use the
Internet platform to deploy a selling application to many points of contact
including personal computers,
37
<PAGE> 39
in-store kiosks and mobile devices while offering customers, partners and
employees an interface customized to meet their specific needs. ACE is built
using Java technology and utilizes a multi-threaded architecture, which is an
application server design that manages a server to reduce the amount of memory
used to support new users as they make connections to the server, to rapidly
deploy, without custom programming, a cost-effective, robust and highly
scalable, Internet-enhanced sales channel.
Some of the major benefits of Selectica's Internet selling system solution
are described below:
Provides Comprehensive Solution. ACE provides all of the functionality for
Internet selling in a single comprehensive solution. Our Internet selling system
solution has been developed with an open architecture that leverages data in
existing enterprise applications, such as ERP systems, providing an
easy-to-install application that is designed to reduce deployment time.
Opportunity for Increased Sales. We enable sellers of complex products and
services to reach and sell to additional customers by enabling them to use the
Internet as an effective sales channel. Our Internet selling system solution is
designed for the Internet platform, providing increased scalability and allowing
companies to sell over a broad range of Internet-enabled devices, including
devices with limited processing power, such as mobile devices.
Shorten Sales Cycle. Generally, in a traditional sales environment for
complex products and services, prospective buyers repeatedly interact with a
seller's sales force to determine an appropriate configuration and pricing.
Selectica's ACE software is designed to enable companies to reduce the time
required to convert interested prospects into customers in several ways,
including:
- providing comprehensive product information to the customer or sales
person at the point of sale without requiring interaction with product
experts; and
- automating the pricing and configuration of complex products and
services, thereby providing customers with accurate real-time
information.
Improves Efficiency of the Indirect Sales Channel. Using our Internet
selling system solution, companies can enable their channel partners, such as
distributors and resellers to access their selling tools and product
information. This allows distributors and resellers to effectively sell complex
products and services with less support from the company. It also improves order
accuracy, which ultimately leads to greater efficiency and increased customer
satisfaction.
Opportunity for Greater Revenue per Customer. Sellers can use our Internet
selling system solution to perform real-time analysis and optimization to
identify cross-selling and up-selling opportunities, thereby increasing average
order size. For example, a prospective buyer of a computer may be prompted by
ACE to consider additional features such as increased memory or complementary
products such as a printer, based on specific selections made. In addition, by
enabling companies to build an easy-to-use selling channel that is always
available to their customers, ACE allows companies to capture a greater
percentage of their customers' business.
Allows Selling Process to Support Key Business Goals. ACE enables companies
to ensure that all orders conform to specific criteria. For example, if a
company had a minimum gross margin requirement for a given product, ACE could
ensure that the features and options chosen will result in a product that meets
the company's margin objectives. ACE also improves inventory management. For
example, ACE can automatically promote the sale of a product for which there is
excess inventory.
Enhances Customer Relations. ACE enables a seller of complex products and
services to present each customer with different options based upon the
customer's specified needs. This customization of the selling process actively
engages the customer in the decision making process. ACE also ensures that
customers arrive at a product configuration that meets the business and

manufacturing guidelines of the company. We believe that ACE's functionality
enhances customer loyalty and satisfaction, ultimately resulting in increased
sales.
Rapid Deployment and Reduced Costs of Ownership. An effective Internet
selling system requires the user to build a knowledge base that captures its
product configurations and selling rules. ACE allows users to build, tailor and
maintain their knowledge base without custom programming. This enables users to
rapidly deploy our Internet selling system solution. It also reduces the need
for expensive technical specialists and programmers to maintain and enhance
their businesses' Internet selling systems.
STRATEGY
Our objective is to become the leading platform for Internet selling
systems. Key components of our strategy include:
Maintain Technology Leadership. We have developed ACE to be a comprehensive
Internet selling system that meets the needs of companies looking to efficiently
sell complex products and services. Our product architecture has been
specifically designed for the Internet, providing our solution with scalability,
reliability and flexibility. We intend to continue to invest heavily in research
and development to introduce new functionality and develop innovative products
that enable our customers to increase their selling efficiency.
Pursue Vertical Market Strategy. To date, we have targeted the computer,
networking systems, automotive and communication services industries. By
offering a high-performance and feature-rich Internet selling system solution to
meet complex and evolving needs, we have established reference accounts with
high-profile, market leaders including 3Com, BMW AG, BMW of North America,
Fujitsu PC, Fujitsu Networking Communications and Hewlett-Packard. We intend to
expand our position in these markets and leverage this position to target other
markets with complex products and services such as financial services and
manufacturing. In addition, we intend to leverage our experience in specific
industries to develop solutions that incorporate the business processes and
product knowledge used in those industries.
Continue to Build Relationships with Technology Providers. We believe that
establishing relationships with key technology providers is essential in
providing a comprehensive business solution for our customers. We intend to
focus on enhancing our Internet selling system functionality while partnering
with other leading technology providers to offer enhanced infrastructure and
complementary applications such as one-to-one marketing, supply chain
management, SFA or CRM.
Leverage and Expand Strategic Relationships. Our strategy is to complement
our direct sales force and professional service organization with strategic
partnerships with leading systems integrators and application service providers,
or ASPs. We believe that these partnerships will enable us to expand our market
reach, extend into new vertical markets and increase access to senior decision-
makers. These firms influence a customer's technology selection and their
recommendation represents a significant endorsement of our products. In
addition, our relationships with systems integrators and ASPs provide additional
implementation and integration resources.
Expand Internationally. As Internet adoption accelerates overseas, we
believe that international market demand for Internet selling system software
and services will increase. We plan to devote significant resources to grow our
sales and marketing efforts in order to penetrate international markets. We
intend to continue to target businesses characterized by high sales volumes and
countries characterized by high growth in demand for Internet selling system
products and services.

SELECTICA SERVICES
Professional Services
We maintain a highly qualified and experienced professional services
organization to deliver quality Internet selling system solutions. Our
professional services organization offers a broad range of services through its
consulting, customer education and technical support groups. These services
include product education, presales prototype development, training seminars,
product installation, application development, customizations, integration and a
full range of education and technical support. This organization is also
responsible for training our partners to provide professional services and
technical support to our customers. The professional services organization
consisted of 209 people as of June 30, 2000, 65 of which are based in the United
States 144 of which are based in Pune, India. Because significant portions of
Internet selling system implementations can be performed away from the
customer's site, we have the flexibility of being able to provide services from
either our U.S. or India-based operations.
Customer Support
In addition to professional services, we offer various levels of product
maintenance to our customers. Maintenance services are typically subject to an
annual, renewable contract and are typically priced as a percentage of product
license fees. Customers under maintenance contracts receive technical product
support and product upgrades as they are released throughout the life of the
maintenance contracts. We also provide Select Onsite, which consists of
specialized services provided at our customers' locations.

TECHNOLOGY
We have developed a unique architecture for developing a personalized,
intuitive, interactive and scalable Internet selling system solution that
includes selection, configuration, pricing, quoting and fulfillment processes.
The four key technological advantages of our Internet selling system solution
include:
- a declarative constraint engine;
- an integrated modeling environment;
- a multi-threaded server; and
- a scalable, thin-client architecture.
Declarative constraint engine
Most existing configurators are custom programs that were written
specifically for the product or family of products being configured. This means
both the configuration logic and the data describing product attributes are
combined in a single computer program that necessitates significant
reprogramming to reflect simple product changes. In contrast, our Internet
selling system solution utilizes a constraint-based engine that is completely
separate from the data describing the product attributes. This means that a
business can easily create and modify the knowledge base to reflect product
changes utilizing our integrated modeling environment thereby eliminating the
need for expensive programming teams.
Our engine, written in Java, is easily deployed on various operating
platforms. The use of Java allows us to support a range of deployment
environments including Java applications in a notebook computer and ACE
Enterprise server generated browser-readable pages, with the same engine and the
same knowledge base.
Integrated modeling environment
We have developed an integrated modeling environment that allows our
customers to easily create a sophisticated Internet selling system solution
without any programming. Our Internet selling system solution utilizes drag and
drop tools that enable sales and marketing personnel, rather than expensive
programmers, to maintain and enhance their businesses' Internet selling systems.
Using these drag and drop tools, businesses can:
- easily create and update knowledge bases containing product attributes;
- create HTML-based graphical user interface, or GUI, applications;
42
<PAGE> 44
- test the application interactively as the application is being built and
conduct batch order checks;
- verify the semantics of the knowledge base and identify some semantic
errors; and
- create flex models from individual models.
Multi-threaded server
We have a unique highly scalable server architecture for deploying our
customers' applications. The n-tier architecture, an architecture that enables
multiple servers to run at the same time, allows us to support a range of
configurations from a single ACE Enterprise Server, to several ACE Enterprise
Servers managed via a single ACE Enterprise Manager running on an HTTP server or
another server. An ACE Enterprise Manager can manage a single server running ACE
Enterprise Server or multiple, possibly overlapping servers all running ACE
Enterprise Servers. Our multi-threaded technologies enhance the performance for
each buyer session because each session state is preserved as the buyer makes
subsequent selections. Furthermore, our ACE Enterprise Server supports a large
number of concurrent user sessions because the engine uses a very small amount
of memory for each incremental user session.
Scalable thin-client architecture
Our software, employing a thin-client architecture, supports an Internet
computing model, enabling users to access an ISS with only an industry-standard
browser on a broad range of Internet-enabled devices. Our ACE Enterprise Servers
use our engine to process the user request from an HTML session, using the
knowledge base and legacy data as needed, to enforce rules, eliminate incorrect
choices and make calculations and then suggest choices by generating the next
HTML screen dynamically. Our servers can also be accessed by custom applications
using our thin-client application programming interfaces. Our ACE Enterprise
Server can communicate with our ACE Quoter or one or more database servers from
other vendors, and other enterprise resources, including legacy resources using
ACE Connectors.
SALES AND MARKETING
Our sales and marketing objective is to achieve broad market penetration
through targeted sales and increased brand name recognition. As of June 30,
2000, our sales and marketing team consisted of 153 persons, with offices in
California, Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas,
Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, Canada, England, Germany, Australia, Mexico,
and Sweden and 33 marketing personnel located in San Jose.
We sell our ACE products primarily through a direct sales force supported
by telesales, system engineering and integration support. We believe that the
integration of these support networks assists in both the establishment and
enhancement of customer relationships. We have developed programs to attract and
retain high quality, motivated sales representatives that have the necessary
technical skills and consultative sales experience.
Our marketing department is engaged in a wide variety of activities, such
as awareness and lead generation programs and product management. These
activities include public relations, speaking programs, seminars, direct mail,
trade shows and advertising.

<PAGE> 45
STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS
Our business development group focuses on developing strategic
relationships with vendors who will help us rapidly penetrate key markets with
our comprehensive Internet selling system solution. We have developed strong
working relationships with system integrators, such as Andersen Consulting,
Arthur Andersen, EDS, KPMG and PricewaterhouseCoopers, with independent software
vendors such as BroadVision, InterWorld, Netscape/AOL and Tibco, and with
application service providers such as Asera and Corio.
STRATEGIC INVESTORS
One of our investors is the Intel 64 Fund. The Intel 64 Fund is a quarter
billion dollar equity fund that invests in emerging technologies for
next-generation servers and workstations utilizing Intel's IA-64 architecture.
The Fund is coordinated by Intel and Compaq, Dell, HP, Intel, NEC, and SGI as
co-investors. The Fund's other investors, managed by Morgan Stanley Dean Witter,
include Bank of America, The Boeing Company, Circuit City, Enron, Ford Motor
Company, General Electric, McKessonHBOC, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, Reuters,
Sabre, SmithKline Beecham, Sumitomo Corp., SunAmerica and Telmex. In October
1999, the Intel 64 Fund purchased shares of our preferred stock as part of a
private sale of our securities.
In October 1999 we entered into a license and one-year maintenance
agreement with a customer. In connection with this agreement, we issued a
warrant to purchase 800,000 shares of our common stock. The fair value of the
warrant is approximately $16.4 million. The value of the warrant less the
purchase price of $800,000, is greater than the revenues under the related
license and service agreement, and accordingly, we recorded a loss on this
contract of $9.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000.
In September 1999 we entered into a development agreement with an investor.
At the same time we issued shares of convertible preferred stock to this
investor for less than the deemed fair value. The excess of fair value over
purchase prices of these shares of $3.8 million will be expensed over the life
of the development agreement, approximately 2 years. As well, in connection with
this agreement we issued warrants to purchase 57,000 shares of our common stock.
The fair value of these warrants of $381,000 will also be expensed over the life
of the agreement.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
To date we have invested substantial resources in research and development.
At June 30, 2000, we had approximately 123 full-time engineers and technical
writing specialists that primarily work on product development, documentation,
quality assurance and testing.
We expect that most of our new products and enhancements to existing
products will be developed internally. However, we will evaluate on an ongoing
basis externally developed technologies for integration into our suite of
products. Enhancements to our existing products are released periodically to add
new features, improve functionality and incorporate feedback and suggestions
from our current customer base. These updates are usually provided as part of
separate maintenance agreement sold with the product license.
COMPETITION
Although we are a leading provider of Internet selling system software and
services, the market for software products that enable electronic commerce is
intensely competitive, and we expect competition in the Internet selling system
software and services market to increase substantially. We
44
<PAGE> 46
encounter competition from a number of different sources, including in-house and
customized Internet-development companies, companies focused on Internet selling
systems and other enterprise software companies. We expect competition to
persist and intensify, which could result in price reductions, reduced gross
margins and loss of market share. Our principal competitors include Calico
Commerce, FirePond and Trilogy Software. BAAN, Oracle Corporation, SAP and
Siebel Systems offer integrated solutions for electronic commerce incorporating
some of the functionality of an Internet selling system and may intensify their
efforts in our market. In addition, other enterprise software companies may
offer competitive products in the future.
Competitors vary in size and in the scope and breadth of the products and
services offered. Although we believe we have advantages over our competitors
including the comprehensiveness of our solution, our use of Java technology and
our multi-threaded architecture, many of our competitors and potential
competitors have a number of advantages over us, including:
- a longer operating history;
- a preferred vendor status with our customers;
- more extensive name recognition and marketing power; and
- significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other
resources, giving them the ability to respond more quickly to new or
changing opportunities, technologies and customer requirements.
Our competitors may also bundle their products in a manner that may
discourage users from purchasing our products. Current and potential competitors
may establish cooperative relationships with each other or with third parties,
or adopt aggressive pricing policies to gain market share. Competitive pressures
may require us to reduce the prices of our products and services. We may not be
able to maintain or expand our sales if competition increases and we are unable
to respond effectively.
PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
We rely on a combination of trademark, trade secret and copyright law and
contractual restrictions to protect the proprietary aspects of our technology.
These legal protections afford only limited protection for our technology. We
currently hold one patent. We also currently have two pending U.S. patent
applications. In addition, we have three trademarks and have applied to register
two of them in the United States. Our trademark and patent applications might
not result in the issuance of any trademarks or patents. If any patent or
trademark is issued, it might be invalidated or circumvented or otherwise fail
to provide us any meaningful protection. We seek to protect the source code for
our software, documentation and other written materials under trade secret and
copyright laws. We license our software pursuant to signed license agreements,
which impose certain restrictions on the licensee's ability to utilize the
software. We also seek to avoid disclosure of our intellectual property by
requiring employees and consultants with access to our proprietary information
to execute confidentiality agreements. Despite our efforts to protect our
proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our
products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. In
addition, the laws of many countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as
great an extent as do the laws of the United States. Litigation may be necessary
in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade
secrets and to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of
others. Our failure to adequately protect our intellectual property could have a
material adverse effect on our business and operating results.
Our success and ability to compete are dependent on our ability to operate
without infringing upon the proprietary rights of others. Any intellectual
property litigation could result in substantial
45
<PAGE> 47
costs and diversion of resources and could significantly harm our business and
operating results. In the past, we received correspondence from two patent
holders recommending that we license their respective patents. After review of
these patents, we informed these patent holders that in our opinion, it would
not be necessary to license these patents. However, we may be required to
license either or both patents or incur legal fees to defend our position that
such licenses are not necessary. We may not be able to obtain a license to use
either patent on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
Any threat of intellectual property litigation could force us to do one or
more of the following:
- cease selling, incorporating or using products or services that
incorporate the challenged intellectual property;
- obtain from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right a
license to sell or use the relevant intellectual property, which license
may not be available on reasonable terms;
- redesign those products or services that incorporate such intellectual
property; or
- pay money damages to the holder of the infringed intellectual property
right.
In the event of a successful claim of infringement against us and our
failure or inability to license the infringed intellectual property on
reasonable terms or license a substitute intellectual property or redesign our
product to avoid infringement, our business and operating results would be
significantly harmed. If we are forced to abandon use of our trademark, we may
be forced to change our name and incur substantial expenses to build a new
brand, which would significantly harm our business and operating results.
EMPLOYEES
At June 30, 2000, we had a total of 549 employees, 184 of whom were based
in India. Of the total, 332 were in engineering, consulting and research and
development, 153 were engaged in sales, marketing and business development and
64 were in administration and finance. None of our employees is represented by a
labor union and we consider our relations with our employees to be good.
FACILITIES
Our principal administrative, sales, marketing and research and development
facility occupies approximately 80,000 square feet of office space at 3 West
Plumeria Drive, San Jose, California 95134. The lease extends through November
2009. We believe the office space in the new facility will be adequate to meet
our needs for the next 12 months. We also have regional offices in California,
Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan,
Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia,
Washington, Wisconsin, Canada, England, Germany, Australia, Mexico, and Sweden.

Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year
The following table designates each grant of stock options during fiscal
year 2000 to our chief executive officer and our four other highest-paid
executive officers.
The figures representing percentages of total options granted to employees
in the last fiscal year are based on a total of 5,314,020 option shares granted
to our employees under our 1996 Stock Plan during fiscal year 2000.
The exercise price of each option granted is equal to the fair value of our
common stock as valued by our board of directors on the date of grant. The
exercise price may be paid in cash, in shares of our common stock valued at fair
value on the exercise date or through a cashless exercise procedure involving a
same-day sale of the purchased shares. We may also finance the option exercise
by lending the optionee sufficient funds to pay the exercise price for the
purchased shares. See "Related Party Transactions -- Loans."
The calculation of the potential realizable value is based on the ten-year
term of the option at the time of grant. We assumed stock price appreciation of
5% and 10% over the assumed offering price of $70.38 per share; this does not
represent our prediction of our stock price performance. The
51
<PAGE> 53
potential realizable value is calculated based on the ten-year term of the
option at the time of grant. Stock price appreciation of 5% and 10% is assumed
according to rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and
does not represent our prediction of our stock price performance. The potential
realizable value at 5% and 10% appreciation is calculated by assuming that the
exercise price on the date of grant appreciates at the indicated rate for the
entire term of the option and that the option is exercised at the exercise price
and sold on the last day of its term at the appreciated price.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
1999 Equity Incentive Plan.
Our board of directors adopted our 1999 Equity Incentive Plan on November
18, 1999. Our stockholders have also approved this plan. We have reserved
2,200,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under the 1999 Equity
Incentive Plan. As of January 1 of each year, starting in 2001, the number of
shares reserved for issuance under our 1999 Equity Incentive Plan will be
increased automatically by 5% of the total number of shares of common stock then
outstanding or, if less, 1,800,000 shares. As of June 30, 2000 options to
purchase 311,065 shares had been granted under the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan.
52
<PAGE> 54
Under the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan, the persons eligible to receive
awards are:
- employees;
- non-employee members of the board of directors; and
- consultants.
The types of awards that may be made under the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan
are:
- options to purchase shares of common stock;
- stock appreciation rights;
- restricted shares; and
- stock units.
Options may be incentive stock options that qualify for favorable tax
treatment for the optionee under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 or nonstatutory stock options not designed to qualify for favorable tax
treatment. With limited restrictions, if shares awarded under the 1999 Equity
Incentive Plan are forfeited, those shares will again become available for new
awards under the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan.
The compensation committee of our board of directors administers the 1999
Equity Incentive Plan. The committee has complete discretion to make all
decisions relating to the interpretation and operation of our 1999 Equity
Incentive Plan. The committee has the discretion to determine which eligible
individuals are to receive an award, and to determine the type, number, vesting
requirements and other features and conditions of each award.
The exercise price for incentive stock options granted under the 1999
Equity Incentive Plan may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our
common stock on the option grant date. The exercise price for non-statutory
options granted under the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan may not be less than 85% of
the fair market value of our common stock on the option grant date.
Our 1999 Equity Incentive Plan provides that no participant may receive
options or stock appreciation rights covering more than 330,000 shares in the
same year, except that a newly hired employee may receive options or stock
appreciation rights covering up to 660,000 shares in the first year of
employment.
The exercise price may be paid with:
- cash;
- outstanding shares of common stock;
- the cashless exercise method through a designated broker;
- a pledge of shares to a broker; or
- a promissory note.
The purchase price for newly issued restricted shares awarded under the
1999 Equity Incentive Plan may be paid with:
- cash;
- a promissory note; or
- the rendering of past services.
The committee may reprice options and may modify, extend or assume
outstanding options and stock appreciation rights. The committee may accept the
cancellation of outstanding options or stock
53
<PAGE> 55
appreciation rights in return for the grant of new options or stock appreciation
rights. The new option or right may have the same or a different number of
shares and the same or a different exercise price.
Each individual who first joins our board of directors as a non-employee
director after the effective date of this offering will receive at that time an
option for 30,000 shares of our common stock. This option becomes vested as to
25% of the option shares upon the completion of 12 months of service and as to
1/48 of the option shares upon the completion of each month of service
thereafter. In addition, at each of our annual stockholders' meetings, beginning
in 2001, each non-employee director who will continue to be a director after
that meeting will automatically be granted at that meeting an option for 7,500
shares of our common stock. However, any non-employee director who receives an
option for 30,000 shares under this plan will first become eligible to receive
the annual option for 7,500 shares at the annual meeting that occurs during the
calendar year following the year in which he or she received the option for
30,000 shares. The option for 7,500 shares becomes vested upon the completion of
12 months of service from the grant date. If there is a change in control, or a
termination as a result of death, disability or retirement after reaching age
65, the options granted to non-employee directors will become fully vested.
If a change in control occurs, an option or other award under the 1999
Equity Incentive Plan will become fully exercisable and fully vested if the
option or award is not assumed by the surviving corporation or its parent or
subsidiary or if the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary does not
substitute comparable awards for the awards granted under the 1999 Equity
Incentive Plan. If a change in control occurs and an optionee is involuntarily
terminated within 12 months following this change in control, then the vesting
of options held by the optionee will accelerate, as if the optionee provided
another 12 months of service. This vesting acceleration will not occur if it
prevents us from completing a transaction that is a "pooling of interest"
transaction.
A change in control includes:
- a merger or consolidation after which our then-current stockholders own
less than 50% of the surviving corporation;
- a sale of all or substantially all of our assets;
- a proxy contest that results in replacement of more than one-half of our
directors over a 24-month period; or
- an acquisition of 50% or more of our outstanding stock by a person other
than a person related to us, including a corporation owned by our
stockholders.
If a merger or other reorganization occurs, the agreement of merger or
reorganization may provide that outstanding options and other awards under the
1999 Equity Incentive Plan shall be assumed by the surviving corporation or its
parent, shall be continued by us if we are the surviving corporation, shall have
accelerated vesting and then expire early or shall be cancelled for a cash
payment.
Our board of directors may amend or terminate the 1999 Equity Incentive
Plan at any time. If our board amends the plan, stockholder approval of the
amendment will be sought only if required by applicable law. The 1999 Equity
Incentive Plan will continue in effect indefinitely unless the board decides to
terminate the plan earlier.
54
<PAGE> 56
1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Our 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan was adopted by our board of directors
on November 18, 1999. Our stockholders have also approved this plan. We have
reserved 1,000,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under our 1999
Employee Stock Purchase Plan. As of May 1 each year, starting in 2001, the
number of shares reserved for issuance under our 1999 Employee Stock Purchase
Plan will be increased automatically by 2% of the total number of shares of
common stock then outstanding or, if less, 1,000,000 shares. Our 1999 Employee
Stock Purchase Plan is intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Internal
Revenue Code.
Eligible employees may begin participating in the 1999 Employee Stock
Purchase Plan at the start of an offering period. Each offering period lasts 24
months. Two overlapping offering periods will start on May 1 and November 1 of
each calendar year. The first offering period started on March 9, 2000 and will
end on April 30, 2002. Purchases of our common stock will occur on approximately
April 30 and October 31 of each calendar year during an offering period.
The compensation committee of our board of directors administers this plan.
Each of our employees is eligible to participate if he or she is employed by us
for more than 20 hours per week and for more than five months per year.
Our 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan permits each eligible employee to
purchase common stock through payroll deductions. Each employee's payroll
deductions may not exceed 15% of the employee's cash compensation. The initial
purchase period during which payroll deductions may be contributed began on
March 9, 2000 and will end on October 31, 2000. Each participant may purchase up
to 750 shares on any purchase date.
The price of each share of common stock purchased under our 1999 Employee
Stock Purchase Plan will be 85% of the lower of:
- the fair market value per share of common stock on the date immediately
before the first date of the applicable offering period; or
- the fair market value per share of common stock on the purchase date.
In the case of the first offering period, the price per share under the
plan will be 85% of the lower of:
- $25.50; or
- the fair market value per share of common stock on the purchase date.
Employees may end their participation in the 1999 Employee Stock Purchase
Plan at any time. Participation ends automatically upon termination of
employment with us.
If a change in control occurs, our 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan will
end and shares will be purchased with the payroll deductions accumulated to date
by participating employees, unless this plan is assumed by the surviving
corporation or its parent. Our board of directors may amend or terminate the
1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan at any time. If our board increases the number
of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 1999 Employee Stock
Purchase Plan, it must seek the approval of our stockholders.
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS AND CHANGE OF CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS
Under their respective employment agreements, our Chief Executive Officer,
Rajen Jaswa, and our Chief Technical Officer and Vice President of Engineering,
Dr. Sanjay Mittal, will receive
55
<PAGE> 57
their most recent base salary for 12 months after their date of termination if
they are terminated without cause. In addition, our repurchase right with
respect to the shares of our common stock that they currently hold will lapse
entirely and all of such shares will become fully vested upon a termination
without cause.
If a change in control occurs, an option or other award under the 1999
Equity Incentive Plan will become fully exercisable and fully vested if the
option or award is not assumed by the surviving corporation or its parent or
subsidiary or if the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary does not
substitute comparable awards for the awards granted under the 1999 Equity
Incentive Plan. In addition, if an optionee is involuntarily terminated within
12 months following a change in control, he or she will become vested in an
additional number of option shares as if he or she completed another 12 months
of service. This vesting acceleration will not occur if it prevents us from
completing a transaction that is a pooling of interest transaction.
Under our 1996 Stock Plan, upon a merger or asset sale, if the options or
stock purchase rights are not assumed by the surviving corporation or its parent
or subsidiary or if the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary does
not substitute comparable awards for the options or stock purchase rights, then
the options and stock purchase rights will become fully vested.
If a change in control occurs and an executive officer or certain of our
key employees are involuntarily terminated within 12 months following this
change in control, then he or she will become vested in an additional number of
option shares equal to the greater of 50% of the then unvested option shares or
the number of option shares the executive officer would become vested in if he
or she completed another 12 months of service.

subsidiary.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
Our authorized capital stock consists of 150,000,000 shares of common
stock, and 10,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock. The following is a
summary description of our capital stock. Our bylaws and our Second Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation, provide further information about our
capital stock.
COMMON STOCK
As of June 30, 2000, there were 35,935,812 shares of common stock
outstanding that were held of record by approximately 327 stockholders. There
will be 37,935,812 shares of common stock outstanding, assuming no exercise of
the underwriters' over-allotment option and assuming no exercise after June 30,
2000 of outstanding options or warrants after giving effect to the sale of the
shares of common stock to the public offered in this prospectus.
The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all
matters to be voted upon by the stockholders. Subject to preferences that may be
applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of common stock are
entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by
the board of directors out of funds legally available. See "Dividend Policy." In
the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of common
stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of
liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock, if any,
then outstanding. The common stock has no preemptive or conversion rights or
other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions
applicable to the common stock. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully
paid and nonassessable, and the shares of common stock to be issued upon
completion of this offering will be fully paid and nonassessable.
PREFERRED STOCK
The board of directors has the authority, without action by the
stockholders, to designate and issue preferred stock in one or more series and
to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and related restrictions, including
dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of
redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares
constituting any series or the designation of the series. The issuance of
preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a
change in control of us without further action by the stockholders and may
adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock. The
issuance of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely
affect the voting power of the holders of common stock, including the loss of
voting control to others. At present, we have no plans to issue any of our
preferred stock.
WARRANTS
There is one outstanding warrant to purchase a total of 800,000 shares of
common stock at an exercise price of $13.00 per share which expires in January
2002.
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
The holders of approximately 20,410,957 shares of common stock are entitled
to rights with respect to the registration of these shares under the Securities
Act. Under the terms of the agreement between us and the holders of these
registrable securities, if we propose to register any of our securities under
the Securities Act, either for our own account or for the account of other
security
63
<PAGE> 65
holders exercising registration rights, these holders are entitled to notice of
registration and are entitled to include their shares of common stock in the
registration. Holders of 18,010,957 shares of the registrable securities are
also entitled to specified demand registration rights under which they may
require us to file a registration statement under the Securities Act at our
expense with respect to our shares of common stock, and we are required to use
our best efforts to effect this registration. Further, the holders of these
demand rights may require us to file additional registration statements on Form
S-3. All of these registration rights are subject to conditions and limitations,
among them the right of the underwriters of an offering to limit the number of
shares included in the registration and our right not to effect a requested
registration within six months following the initial offering of our securities,
including this offering.
ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS
Selected provisions of Delaware law, and our certificate of incorporation
and bylaws, could make more difficult the acquisition of us by means of a tender
offer or a proxy contest and the removal of incumbent officers and directors.
These provisions, summarized below, are expected to discourage particular types
of coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and to encourage
persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with us. We believe
that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate
with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or
restructure us outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals
because, among other things, negotiation of these proposals could result in an
improvement of their terms. However, these provisions could have the effect of
discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and, as a
consequence, they may also inhibit fluctuations in the market price of our
shares that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts.
Stockholder Meetings. Under our bylaws, only our board of directors, the
Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer may call special meetings
of stockholders.
Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and
Proposals. Our bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to
stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as
directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of our board of
directors or a related committee.
Delaware Anti-Takeover Law. We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, an anti-takeover law. Generally, Section 203 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation
from engaging in a "business combination" with an "interested stockholder" for a
period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person
became an interested stockholder, unless:
- before the date of the business combination, the transaction is approved
by the board of directors of the corporation;
- upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder
becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owns at
least 85% of the outstanding stock; or
- on or after the date the transaction is approved by the board and by the
affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock
which is not owned by the interested stockholder.
A "business combination" includes mergers, asset sales and other
transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the stockholder. An "interested
stockholder" is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or
within three years, did own) 15% or more of the corporation's voting stock. The
existence of this provision would be expected to have an anti-takeover effect
with
64
<PAGE> 66
respect to transactions not approved in advance by our board of directors,
including discouraging attempts that might result in a premium over the market
price for the shares of common stock held by stockholders.
Classified Board of Directors. Our certificate of incorporation provides
that our board of directors is divided into three classes of directors serving
staggered three-year terms. As a result, only one of the three classes of our
board of directors will be elected each year. The classification system of
electing directors may tend to discourage a third party from making a tender
offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us and may maintain the
incumbency of our board of directors by increasing the difficulty of replacing a
majority of the directors.
Elimination of Stockholder Action by Written Consent. Our certificate of
incorporation eliminates the right of stockholders to act by written consent
without a meeting.
Undesignated Preferred Stock. The authorization of undesignated preferred
stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with
voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any
attempt to obtain control of us.
Amendment of Restated Charter. The amendment of any of the above provisions
would require approval by holders of at least 66 2/3% of our outstanding common
stock.
TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR
The transfer agent and registrar for the common stock is U.S. Stock
Transfer Corporation.
NASDAQ NATIONAL MARKET LISTING
Our common stock is quoted on The Nasdaq Stock Market's National Market
under the symbol "SLTC."

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public
market, or the possibility of these sales occurring, could adversely affect
prevailing market prices of our common stock or our future ability to raise
capital through an offering of equity securities.
As of June 30, 2000, we will have 35,935,812 shares of common stock
outstanding upon completion of this offering, assuming no exercise of options
after June 30, 2000. Of these 35,935,812 shares, the 4,000,000 shares sold by us
and by the selling stockholders in this offering, 4,600,000 shares if the
underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full, as well as the
4,600,000 shares sold in our initial public offering, will be freely tradable
without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except
that any shares held by persons that directly or indirectly control, or are
controlled by, or are under common control with us, may generally only be sold
in compliance with the limitations of Rule 144 of the Securities Act described
below
SALES OF RESTRICTED SHARES
The remaining approximately 26,735,812 shares outstanding upon completion
of this offering will be restricted securities as that term is defined under
Rule 144. We issued and sold these restricted securities in private transactions
in reliance on exemptions from registration under the Securities Act. Restricted
securities may be sold in the public market only if they are registered or if
they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rule 144 or Rule 701 under
the Securities Act, as summarized below.
Pursuant to lock-up agreements entered into in connection with our initial
public offering in March 2000, all the executive officers, directors and
stockholders of Selectica agreed not to dispose of their shares for a period of
180 days following the initial public offering; provided, however, that Credit
Suisse First Boston Corporation has the right, in its sole discretion, to
release all or any portion of the shares subject to the initial public offering
lock-up agreements at any time and without notice. In addition, our officers,
directors, selling stockholders in this offering and other stockholders have
entered into lock-up agreements that extend for a period ending 90 days from the
date of this prospectus. Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation may in its sold
discretion, at any time without notice, release all or any portion of the shares
subject to these lock-up agreements.
Taking into account the lock-up agreements, the following shares will be
eligible for sale in the public market at the following times:
- Upon completion of this offering, the 4,000,000 shares sold in the
offering, as well as the 4,600,000 shares sold in our initial public
offering, will be immediately available for sale in the public market.
- On September 6, 2000, lock-up restrictions in connection with our initial
public offering will expire on approximately shares, and these
shares will then be immediately available for sale in the public market
subject, in certain cases, to volume, manner of sale, or other
limitations under Rule 144.
- On November , 2000, lock-up restrictions in connection with this
offering will expire on approximately shares and these shares
will then be immediately available for sale in the public market lock-up
period following this offering, subject in certain cases, to volume,
manner of sale, or other limitation under Rule 144.
66
<PAGE> 68
- The remaining approximately shares will be eligible for sale
beginning on various dates thereafter subject, in certain cases, to
volume, manner of sale, or other limitations under Rule 144.
Following the expiration of the lock-up period, shares issued upon exercise
of options we granted prior to our initial public offering of our common stock
will also be available for sale in the public market pursuant to Rule 701 under
the Securities Act. In general, under Rule 144, after the expiration of the
lock-up period, a person who has beneficially owned restricted securities for at
least one year would be entitled to sell, within any three-month period, a
number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:
- 1% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock, or
- the average weekly trading volume of the common stock during the four
calendar weeks preceding the sale.
Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale and notice
requirements and to the availability of current public information about
Selectica. Under Rule 144(k), a person who has not been our affiliate at any
time during the three months before a sale and who has beneficially owned the
shares proposed to be sold for at least two years can sell these shares without
complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or
notice provisions of Rule 144.
We filed a registration statement on Form S-8 to register approximately
8,577,266 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Selectica 1996
stock plan, the 1999 equity incentive plan, the 1999 employee stock purchase
plan and certain additional option agreements. Shares issued under the foregoing
stock and option plans, after the filing of the registration statements on Form
S-8, may be sold in the open market, subject, in the case of some holders, to
the Rule 144 limitations applicable to affiliates, the lock-up agreements and
vesting restrictions imposed by us.
In addition, following this offering, the holders of approximately
shares of outstanding common stock will, under some circumstances,
have rights to require us to register their shares for future sale. For a
description of the registration rights we have granted see "Description of
Capital Stock -- Registration Rights."

The underwriting agreement provides that the underwriters are obligated to
purchase all the shares of common stock in the offering, if any are purchased,
other than those shares covered by the over-allotment option described below.
The underwriting agreement also provides that, if an underwriter defaults, the
purchase commitments of non-defaulting underwriters may be increased or the
offering of common stock may be terminated.
The selling stockholders have granted to the underwriters a 30-day option
to purchase on a pro rata basis up to 600,000 additional shares at the public
offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. This option may
be exercised only to cover any over-allotments of common stock.
The underwriters propose to offer the shares of common stock initially at
the public offering price on the cover page of this prospectus and to selling
group members at that price less a concession of $ per share. The
underwriters and selling group members may allow a discount of $ per share
on sales to other broker/dealers. After the public offering, the public offering
price and concession and discount to broker/dealers may be changed by the
representatives.

and the selling stockholders will pay.

We and our officers and directors and the selling stockholders have agreed
that we and they will not offer, sell, contract to sell, announce our intention
to sell, pledge or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement under the Securities
Act relating to any shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for any of our shares of common stock, or publicly
disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge, disposition or filing,
without the prior written consent of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation for
a period of 90 days after the date of this prospectus. Our agreement has limited
exceptions, including issuances resulting from the exercise of employee options
outstanding on

<PAGE> 70
the date of this prospectus and grants of employee stock options under plans in
effect on the date of this prospectus. In connection with our initial public
offering, our officers and directors and substantially all of our stockholders
entered into similar agreements that extend until September 6, 2000. See "Shares
Eligible for Future Sale."
We and the selling stockholders have agreed to indemnify the underwriters
against liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribute to payments that the
underwriters may be required to make in that respect.
The common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market's National Market
under the symbol SLTC.
The representatives may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions,
syndicate covering transactions, penalty bids and "passive" market making in
accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act.
- Over-allotment involves syndicate sales in excess of the offering size,
which creates a syndicate short position.
- Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security
so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum.
- Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the common stock in
the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to
cover syndicate short positions.
- Penalty bids permit the representatives to reclaim a selling concession
from a syndicate member when the common stock originally sold by such
syndicate member is purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to
cover syndicate short positions.
- In "passive" market making, market makers in the common stock who are
underwriters or prospective underwriters may, subject to certain
limitations, make bids for or purchases of the common stock until the
time, if any, at which a stabilizing bid is made.
These stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids
may cause the price of the common stock to be higher than it would otherwise be
in the absence of these transactions. These transactions may be effected on The
Nasdaq National Market or otherwise and, if commenced, may be discontinued at
any time.
A prospectus in electronic format will be made available on the web sites
maintained by one or more of the underwriters participating in this offering.
The representatives may agree to allocate a number of shares to underwriters and
dealers for sale to their online brokerage account holders.

The securities being offered are those of a foreign issuer and Ontario
purchasers will not receive the contractual right of action prescribed by

damages or recession or rights of action under the civil liability provisions of
the U.S. federal securities laws.

All of the issuer's directors and officers as well as the experts named
herein may be located outside of Canada and, as a result, it may not be possible
for Canadian purchasers to effect service of process within Canada upon the
issuer or these persons. All or a substantial portion of the assets of the
issuer and these persons may be located outside of Canada and, as a result, it
may not be possible to satisfy a judgment against the issuer or these persons in
Canada or to enforce a judgment obtained in Canadian courts against the issuer
or these persons outside of Canada.

automation, and build-to-order applications.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of the
Company and those of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Foreign Currency Transactions
Foreign currency transactions at foreign operations are measured using the
U.S. dollar as the functional currency. Accordingly, monetary accounts
(principally cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable,
and accrued liabilities) are remeasured using the foreign exchange rate at the
balance sheet date. Operations accounts and non-monetary balance sheet accounts
are remeasured at the rate in effect at the date of transaction. The effects of
foreign currency remeasurement are reported in current operations and were
immaterial for all periods presented.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents,
short-term investments, and accounts receivable. The Company places its
short-term investments in high-credit quality financial institutions. The
Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by these institutions
to the extent of the amount recorded on the balance sheet. As of March 31, 2000
all money market funds are invested in two funds, the Monarch Fund and The
Dreyfus Institutional Preferred Money Market Fund. Accounts receivable are
derived from revenue earned from customers primarily located in the United
States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers'
financial condition and generally does not require collateral. The Company
maintains reserves for potential credit losses, and historically, such losses
have been immaterial.

Customer Concentrations
A limited number of customers have historically accounted for a substantial
portion of the Company's revenues.
Customers who accounted for at least 10% of total revenues were as follows:

Insight Enterprises, Inc. .................................. * * 12%
</TABLE>

* Revenues were less than 10%.
Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid financial
instruments, principally money markets funds and commercial paper with
insignificant interest rate risk that are readily convertible to cash and have
maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. As of March 31,
2000 all money market funds are invested in two funds, the Monarch Fund and The
Dreyfus Institutional Preferred Money Market Fund. The fair value, based on
quoted market prices, of cash equivalents is substantially equal to their
carrying value at March 31, 2000 and 1999.
Management classifies investments as available-for-sale at the time of
purchase and periodically reevaluates such designation. Unrecognized gains or
losses on available-for-sale securities are included, net of tax, in
stockholders' equity until their disposition. Realized gains and losses and
declines in value judged to be other than temporary on available-for-sale
securities are included in interest income. The cost of securities sold is based
on the specific-identification method.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets,
generally three to five years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is
computed using the straight line method over the shorter of the lease term or
the estimated useful life.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquired companies
over estimated fair values of tangible and intangible net assets acquired.
Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life,
generally five years. The carrying values of long-term assets and intangibles
are reviewed if facts and circumstances suggest that they may be impaired. If
this review indicates that carrying values of long-term assets, other
intangibles, and associated goodwill will not
F-8
<PAGE> 82
SELECTICA, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
be recoverable based on projected undiscounted future cash flows, carrying
values are reduced to estimated fair values by first reducing goodwill and
second by reducing long-term assets and other intangibles.
Revenue Recognition
The Company enters into arrangements for the sale of 1) licenses of
software products and related maintenance contract; 2) bundled license,
maintenance, and services; and 3) services on a time and material basis. In
instances where maintenance is bundled with a license of software products, such
maintenance term is typically one year.
For each arrangement, the Company determines whether evidence of an
arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and
collection is probable. If any of these criteria are not met, revenue
recognition is deferred until such time as all of the criteria are met.
Arrangements consisting of license and maintenance only. For those
contracts that consist solely of license and maintenance the Company recognizes
license revenues based upon the residual method after all elements other than
maintenance have been delivered as prescribed by Statement of Position 98-9
"Modification of SOP No. 97-2 with Respect to Certain Transactions." The Company
recognizes maintenance revenues over the term of the maintenance contract as
vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for maintenance exists.
Arrangements consisting of license, maintenance and other
services. Services can consist of maintenance, training and/or consulting
services. Consulting services include a range of services including installation
of off-the-shelf software, customization of the software for the customer's
specific application, data conversion and building of interfaces to allow the
software to operate in customized environments.
In all cases, the Company assesses whether the service element of the
arrangement is essential to the functionality of the other elements of the
arrangement. In this determination the Company focuses on whether the software
is off-the-shelf software, whether the services include significant alterations
to the features and functionality of the software, whether the services involve
the building of complex interfaces, the timing of payments and the existence of
milestones. Often the installation of the software requires the building of
interfaces to the customer's existing applications or customization of the
software for specific applications. As a result, judgment is required in the
determination of whether such services constitute "complex" interfaces. In
making this determination the Company considers the following: (1) the relative
fair value of the services compared to the software, (2) the amount of time and
effort subsequent to delivery of the software until the interfaces or other
modifications are completed, (3) the degree of technical difficulty in building
of the interface and uniqueness of the application, (4) the degree of
involvement of customer personnel, and (5) any contractual cancellation,
acceptance, or termination provisions for failure to complete the interfaces.
The Company also considers the likelihood of refunds, forfeitures and
concessions when determining the significance of such services.
In those instances where the Company determines that the service elements
are essential to the other elements of the arrangement, the Company accounts for
the entire arrangement using contract accounting.
For those arrangements accounted for using contract accounting that do not
include contractual milestones or other acceptance criteria the Company utilizes
the percentage of completion method based upon input measures of hours. For
those contracts that include contract milestones or
F-9
<PAGE> 83
SELECTICA, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
acceptance criteria the Company recognizes revenue as such milestones are
achieved or as such acceptance occurs.
In some instances the acceptance criteria in the contract require
acceptance after all services are complete and all other elements have been
delivered. In these instances the Company recognizes revenue based upon the
completed contract method after such acceptance has occurred.
For those arrangements for which the Company has concluded that the service
element is not essential to the other elements of the arrangement the Company
determines whether the services are available from other vendors, do not involve
a significant degree of risk or unique acceptance criteria, and whether the
Company has sufficient experience in providing the service to be able to
separately account for the service. When the service qualifies for separate
accounting the Company uses vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for
the services and the maintenance to account for the arrangement using the
residual method, regardless of any separate prices stated within the contract
for each element.
Vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of services is based upon
hourly rates. As previously noted, the Company enters into contracts for
services alone and such contracts are based upon time and material basis. Such
hourly rates are used to assess the vendor specific objective evidence of fair
value in multiple element arrangements.
In accordance with paragraph 10 of Statement of Position 97-2, "Software
Revenue Recognition," vendor specific objective evidence of fair value of
maintenance is determined by reference to the price the customer will be
required to pay when it is sold separately (that is, the renewal rate), which is
based on the price established by management, having the relevant authority to
establish such a price. Each license agreement offers additional maintenance
renewal periods at a stated price. Maintenance contracts are typically one year
in duration.
Customer billing occurs in accordance with contract terms. Customer
advances and amounts billed to customers in excess of revenue recognized are
recorded as deferred revenues. Amounts recognized as revenue in advance of
billing (typically under percentage-of-completion accounting) are recorded as
unbilled receivables.
Advertising Expense
The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for
the year ended March 31, 2000 was $891,364. Advertising expenses were immaterial
for all other years presented.
Development Costs
Costs incurred in the research and development of new software products and
enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until
technological feasibility has been established. The Company believes its current
process for developing software is essentially completed concurrently with the
establishment of technological feasibility; accordingly, software costs incurred
after the establishment of technological feasibility have not been material and,
therefore, have been expensed.

Comprehensive Loss
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,
"Reporting Comprehensive Income" in the year ended March 31, 1999. The Company
had no items of other comprehensive income to report in any of the periods
presented.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic and diluted net loss per common share is presented in conformity with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (FAS
128), for all periods presented. In accordance with FAS 128, basic and diluted
net loss per share have been computed using the weighted-average number of
shares of common stock outstanding during the period, less shares subject to
repurchase.
The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net loss
per share:

The Company has excluded all outstanding stock options and shares subject
to repurchase by the Company from the calculation of basic and diluted net loss
per share because these securities are antidilutive for all periods presented.
Options and warrants to purchase 4,267,035, 1,444,058, and 1,279,600 shares of
common stock for the years ended March 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998 were not
included in the computation of diluted net loss per share applicable to common
stockholders because the effect would be antidilutive. Such securities, had they
been dilutive, would have been included in the computation of diluted net loss
per share using the treasury stock method.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation under Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB
Opinion No. 25), and related interpretations. Pro forma net loss, as presented
in Note 10, is a disclosure required by Financial Accounting Standards Board's
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation" (FAS 123).
Segment Information
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 group in deciding how to allocate resources
and in assessing performance. The Company operates in one

segment, Internet selling system software for electronic commerce. The Company
primarily markets its products in the United States. For the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2000, sales to international locations, principally Asia, represented
15% of total revenues. Foreign sales were less than 10% for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 1999. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998, sales to
international locations, principally Europe, represented 46% of total revenues.
Export revenues are attributable to countries based on the location of the
customers.
The Company holds long-lived assets in India with a net book value of
$370,145 at March 31, 2000.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" (FAS 133). FAS 133 establishes accounting methods for
derivative financial instruments and hedging activities related to those
instruments as well as other hedging activities. The Company will be required to
implement FAS 133 for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2002. Because the Company
does not currently hold any derivative instruments and does not engage in
hedging activities, the Company does not expect that the adoption of FAS 133
will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB
101 provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of
revenue in financial statements. SAB 101 is effective for years beginning after
December 15, 1999 and is required to be reported beginning in the quarter ended
March 31, 2001. SAB 101 is not expected to have a significant effect on the
Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB
Interpretation No. 44 ("FIN 44"), "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving
Stock Compensation -- an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25". FIN 44 clarifies
the application of APB Opinion No. 25 and, among other issues clarifies the
following: the definition of an employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion
No. 25; the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a
noncompensatory plan; the accounting consequence of various modifications to the
terms of the previously fixed stock options or awards; and the accounting for an
exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. FIN 44 is
effective July 1, 2000, but certain conclusions in FIN 44 cover specific events
that occurred after either December 15, 1998 or January 12, 2000. The Company
does not expect the

Preferred Stock
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation was amended to authorize
25,000,000 shares of preferred stock at a par value of $0.0001 per share upon
reincorporation in Delaware in January 2000. There was no preferred stock issued
and outstanding at March 31, 2000.
The Board of Directors has the authority, without action by the
stockholders, to designate and issue the preferred stock in one or more series
and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and related restrictions,
including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights,
terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number
of shares constituting any series or the designation of the series. The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been retroactively restated
to give effect to the reincorporation.
Warrants
The Company had previously issued convertible preferred stock warrants.
Upon the effectiveness of the Company's initial public offering, all such
warrants became exercisable as common stock.
In association with a credit agreement entered into with a financial
institution, the Company issued a warrant that entitles the holder to purchase
20,408 shares of Series D convertible preferred stock at an exercise price of
$1.47 per share. The warrant expires April 17, 2005. The fair value of the
warrant, $25,714, was amortized over the life of the credit agreement, which
expired on June 1999. The Company determined the fair value of the warrants
using the Black-Scholes valuation model assuming a fair value of the Company's
Series D convertible preferred stock of $1.47, a risk-free interest rate of
6.0%, a volatility factor of 147%, and a life of five years.
In connection with convertible promissory notes issued in May 1999, the
Company issued warrants to purchase 15,000 shares of Series E convertible
preferred stock at $4.382 per share. This transaction resulted in the valuation
of warrants of $49,781 of which $35,107 was amortized as interest expense prior
to the conversion of the convertible debt into Series E convertible preferred
stock on June 16, 1999. The Company determined the fair value of the warrants
using the Black-Scholes valuation model assuming a fair value of the Company's
Series E convertible preferred stock

of $4.382, risk free interest rate of 5.9%, volatility factor of 96.1%, and a
life of five years. The warrants were exercised in fiscal 2000.
In connection with the issuance of shares of the Company's Series E
convertible preferred stock in fiscal 2000, the Company issued warrants to
purchase 187,129 shares of the Company's Series E convertible preferred stock at
$4.382 per share. The warrants were exercised on February 25, 2000. The Company
determined the fair value of the warrants of $3.29 using the Black-Scholes
valuation model assuming a fair value of the Company's Series E convertible
preferred stock of $4.382, risk free interest rate of 5.78%, volatility factor
of 96.1%, and a life of five years.
In September 1999, the Company entered into a development agreement with an
investor whereby the investor and the Company will work to port the current
suite of ACE products to additional platforms. In connection with the
development agreement, the Company issued warrants to purchase 57,000 shares of
Series E convertible preferred stock at $4.382 per share. The warrants were
issued in December 1999 and were exercised on March 9, 2000. The Company
determined the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes valuation
model assuming a fair value of the Company's Series E convertible preferred
stock of $19.00, risk free interest rate of 5.5%, volatility factor of 80% and a
life of 22 months. The fair value of $381,000 is being amortized over the
remaining life of the development agreement. As March 31, 2000, total
amortization of this warrant was approximately $65,000.
In November 1999, the Company entered into a license agreement and one year
maintenance contract in the amount of $3.0 million with a customer and in
connection with the agreement committed to the issuance of a warrant to purchase
800,000 shares of common stock. In January 2000 the warrant was issued with an
exercise price of the lesser of $13.00 or the initial public offering price of
the Company. The holder of the warrant may elect to net exercise this warrant.
The warrants are immediately exercisable and expire in January 2002. The value
of the warrants was estimated to be $16.4 million and was based upon a
Black-Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions: risk free interest
rate of 5.5%, dividend yield of 0%, volatility of 80%, expected life of 2 years,
exercise price of $13.00 and fair value of $30.00. As the warrant value less the
warrant purchase price of $800,000, exceeds the related license and maintenance
revenue under the agreement and subsequent services agreements, the Company has
recorded a $9.7 million loss on the contract for the year ended March 31, 2000.
Stock Option Plan
The Company's 1996 Stock Plan (the Plan) was adopted by the Board of
Directors on August 26, 1996. The Plan provides for granting of incentive stock
options to employees and nonstatutory stock options to outside directors and
consultants. Incentive stock options are granted at an exercise price of not
less than the fair value per share of the common stock on the date of grant as
determined by the Board of Directors. Nonstatutory stock options are granted at
an exercise price of not less than 85% of the fair value per share on the date
of grant as determined by the Board of Directors. Vesting and exercise
provisions are determined by the Board of Directors at the time of grant.
Options generally vest with respect to 25% of the shares one year after the
options' vesting commencement date and the remainder ratably over the following
three years. Options granted under the Plan have a maximum term of ten years.
Options can be exercised at any time and stock issued under the Plan may be, as
determined by the Board of Directors, subject to repurchase by the Company. This
right to repurchase generally lapses over four years from the original date of
issuance or grant.

1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
On November 18, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved, subject to
shareholder approval, the adoption of the 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
Purchase Plan). A total of 1,000,000 shares of common stock has been reserved
for issuance under the Purchase Plan. On each May 1, starting in 2001, the
number of shares will be automatically increased by the lesser of 2% of then
outstanding shares of common stock or 1,000,000 shares. Each offering period
will consist of four consecutive purchase periods of six months duration. The
initial offering period is expected to begin on March 10, 2000 and ends on April
30, 2002.
The Purchase Plan permits eligible employees to purchase common stock
through payroll deductions, which may not exceed 15% of an employee's
compensation, at a price equal to the lower of 85% of the fair market value of
the Company's common stock at the beginning of each offering period or at the
end of each purchase period. Employees who work more than five months per year
and more than twenty hours per week are eligible to participate in the Purchase
Plan. Stockholders who own more than 5% of outstanding common stock are excluded
from participating in the Purchase Plan. Each eligible employee is limited to
purchase no more than 750 shares per purchase date (1,500 shares per year) and
no more than $25,000 of stock per calendar year. If not terminated earlier, the
Purchase Plan has a term of twenty years.
Activity under all stock option plans is as follows:

All shares granted under the Plan are exercisable, however, shares
exercised but not vested are subject to repurchase. At March 31, 2000, 2,612,917
shares were subject to repurchase under the Plan.
1999 Equity Incentive Plan
The Company adopted the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan (the Equity Incentive
Plan) in fiscal 2000. A total of 2,200,000 shares of common stock has been
reserved under the Equity Incentive Plan. On each January 1, starting in 2001,
the number of shares will be automatically increased by the lesser of 5% of then
outstanding shares or 1,800,000. The Equity Incentive Plan includes Incentive
Stock Options, Nonstatutory Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Shares of
Restricted Stock, and Stock Units. All employees, nonemployee directors, and
consultants are eligible to participate in the Equity Incentive Plan. Each
eligible participant is limited to being granted 330,000 shares per year, except
in the first year of employment where the limit is 660,000 shares. The Equity
Incentive Plan has a term of 10 years.
Stock Issued for Services
Under the terms of the Company's 1996 Stock Plan from time to time the
Company issues shares of common stock in exchange for services. All services
were complete at the date of grant and the value of the services was based upon
the then fair value of the common stock. During fiscal 1998 the Company issued
12,000 shares of common stock at a weighted average fair value of $0.077 in
exchange for accounting services. During fiscal 1999, the Company issued 46,304
shares of common stock at a weighted average fair value of $0.919 in exchange
for various services including legal, marketing, business development, and
recruiting services. During fiscal 2000, the Company issued 33,070 shares of
common stock at a weighted average fair value of $3.218 in exchange for various
services including legal, accounting, recruiting, and consulting.
Deferred Compensation
During the years ended March 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, the Company recorded
aggregate deferred compensation of $13,164,704 representing the difference
between the exercise price of stock options granted and the then deemed fair
value of the Company's common stock. The amortization of deferred compensation
is charged to operations over the vesting period of the options using the

straight-line method, which is typically four years. For the years ended March
31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Company amortized $1,261,457, $47,500, and $3,541,
respectively.
Accelerated Options
In March 1999, in association with an employee termination agreement, the
Company accelerated 137,000 shares of unvested common stock and recorded
$170,000 of related compensation expense.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
As permitted under FAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", the
Company has elected to continue to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25") and related
Interpretations in accounting for its stock based awarded to employees. Under
APB 25, the Company generally recognizes no compensation expense with respect to
such awards.
Pro forma information regarding net loss is required by FAS 123 and has
been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options
granted under the fair value method of FAS 123. The fair value of options
granted was estimated at the date of grant using the minimum-value method. The
minimum-value option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the
fair value of nonpublicly traded options that have no vesting restrictions and
are fully transferable. In addition option valuation models require the input of
highly subjective assumptions, including expected life and risk-free interest
rates. Because the Company's options have characteristics significantly
different from those of traded options and because the changes in the subjective
input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, the existing
model does not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value
of its options.
The Company has not granted stock options subsequent to the initial public
offering on March 10, 2000. The Company will value options granted subsequent to
the initial public offering using the Black-Scholes valuation model.
The fair value of stock options granted in fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998
were estimated at the date of grant using the following weighted average
assumptions:

The weighted-average fair value where exercise price is equal to the deemed
fair value of common stock on date of grant for the years ended March 31, 2000,
1999 and 1998 was $4.90, $0.11 and $0.02, respectively. The weighted-average
fair value where exercise price is less than the deemed fair value of common
stock on date of grant for the years ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 was $6.75 and
$0.56, respectively. There were no options where the exercise price was less
than the deemed fair value of common stock on the date of grant for the year
ended March 31, 1998. The Company has accounted for the differential between the
exercise price and deemed fair value as deferred compensation.

The Company has recorded a tax provision of $50,000 for the year ended
March 31, 2000. The provision for income taxes consists primarily of state
income taxes and foreign taxes. There is no provision for income taxes for the
years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109 provides for the
recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely
than not. Based on the weight of available evidence, which includes the
Company's historical operating performance and the reported cumulative net
losses in all prior years, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance
against its net deferred tax assets.
The valuation allowance increased by $12,519,000 and $3,269,000 during the
years ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
As of March 31, 2000, the Company had federal and state net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $10,900,000 and $10,300,000, respectively. As of
March 31, 2000, the Company also had federal and state research and development
tax credit carryforwards of approximately $400,000 and $300,000, respectively.
The net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards will expire at various dates
beginning in 2005 through 2020, if not utilized.
Utilization of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be
subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change
limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions.
The annual limitation may result in the expiration of the net operating loss and
credit carryforwards before utilization.
12. RELATED PARTY
During the years ended March 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, certain services
were performed by Selectica Configurators India Pvt. Ltd. (Selectica India), a
related party. These efforts included quality and assurance testing and
consulting services. Prior to June 30, 1999, Selectica India was owned by the
parents of the chief executive officer and founder of the Company. Total
expenses related to these efforts, which are included in the Company's
statements of operations, by Selectica India, amounted to $135,000, $302,511,
and $51,200 for the years ended March 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.
The Company also advanced $155,000 to Selectica India during 1999 for future
services efforts. Amounts included in accounts payable were immaterial for all
periods presented.

SELECTICA, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
During July 1999, the Company acquired a majority ownership of Selectica, India.
See Note 9 for further details.
In December 1999, the Company acquired approximately 2% of the equity in
LoanMarket Resources, LLC in exchange for a license and consulting service
agreement. As there is no readily determinable fair value for the equity
position in LoanMarket Resources, LLC, because this is a privately held company,
the Company has not ascribed any value to the investment. Revenue recognized on
the agreement was approximately $434,000 for the year and represented the
percentage-of-completion to date. Amounts recognized under the contract were
less than total cash received to date. Remaining cash receipts of approximately
$366,000 are included in deferred revenues as of March 31, 2000.
13. BENEFIT PLAN
Effective February 1998, the Company adopted a tax-deferred savings plan,
the Selectica 401(k) Plan (the 401(k) Plan), for the benefit of qualified
employees. The 401(k) Plan is designed to provide employees with an accumulation
of funds at retirement. Qualified employees may elect to make contributions to
the 401(k) Plan on a monthly basis. The 401(k) Plan does not require the Company
to make any contributions. No contributions were made by the Company for the
years ended March 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998. Administrative expenses relating to
the 401(k) Plan are insignificant.
14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (UNAUDITED)
Wakely Software Acquisition
In July 2000, we entered into an agreement to acquire Wakely Software, Inc.
a provider of rating software and actuarial services for the insurance industry
for 175,000 shares of our common stock and $4,350,000. Combined with Wakely
Software, we intend to offer a multi-channel Internet sales solution developed
for the insurance industry. The purchase price is estimated to be approximately
$19 million. We will account for the acquisition as a purchase transaction. We
will allocate the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed
based on their respective fair values. We believe that a significant portion of
the purchase price will be allocated to intangible assets, including goodwill
which will be amortized over their estimated useful lives.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to
award or a corporation's board of directors to grant indemnification to
directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit indemnification
under limited circumstances for liabilities, including reimbursement for
expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"). Article VI, Section 6.1 of our bylaws provides for mandatory
indemnification of our directors, officers and employees to the maximum extent
permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Our Certificate of
Incorporation provides that, under Delaware law, our officers and directors
shall not be liable for monetary damages for breach of the officers' or
directors' fiduciary duty as officers or directors to our stockholders and us.
This provision in the Certificate of Incorporation does not eliminate the
officers' or directors' fiduciary duty, and in appropriate circumstances,
equitable remedies like injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will
remain available under Delaware law. In addition, each officer or director will
continue to be subject to liability for breach of the officer's or director's
duty of loyalty to us for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving
intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for actions leading to
improper personal benefit to the officer or director and for payment of
dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful
under Delaware law. The provision also does not affect an officer's or
director's responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities
laws or state or federal environmental laws. We have entered into
indemnification agreements with our officers and directors, a form of which is
attached as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference. The indemnification
agreements provide our officers and directors with further indemnification to
the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Reference
is made to Section 7 of the underwriting agreement contained in Exhibit 1.1 to
this prospectus, indemnifying officers and directors of ours against limited
liabilities.
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
Since June 1996, we have issued and sold the following securities:

2. We issued and sold an aggregate of 4,837,340 shares of our common
stock to employees, consultants, and other service providers for aggregate
consideration of approximately $14,661,672 under direct issuances or

1,250,000 shares were subject to a repurchase right by us. The repurchase
right lapses over 48 months beginning July 1, 1996. The fair value of the
1,250,000 shares of common stock subject to repurchase was $12,500.
5. In October 1996, we issued 200,000 shares of our Series A

Schedule II -- Valuation and Qualifying Accounts
ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
We undertake to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the
underwriting agreement, certificates in the denominations and registered in the
names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each
purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Certificate of
Incorporation or our bylaws, the underwriting agreement, or otherwise, we have
been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission this
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and
is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against these liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of ours in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by a director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered in this
offering, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question of whether this indemnification by us is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of this issue.
We undertake that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of
this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a
form of prospectus filed by us under Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under
the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration
statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered, and the offering of these securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering.
