8X8, Inc.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

The Company is a leading provider of enterprise cloud communications solutions, including unified communications, team collaboration, contact center, and analytics, integrated over a single Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform. The 8x8 Communications CloudTM offers businesses a secure, reliable and simplified approach to transitioning their legacy, on-premises communications systems to the cloud. This comprehensive solution, built from owned and managed cloud technologies, enables customers to rely on a single provider for their global communications and contact center capabilities as well as customer support requirements. 8x8 customers are spread across more than 100 countries and range from small businesses to large enterprises.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Company's fiscal year ends on March 31 of each calendar year. Each reference to a fiscal year in these notes to the consolidated financial statements refers to the fiscal year ended March 31 of the calendar year indicated (for example, fiscal 2019 refers to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2019).

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, with the exception of new revenue recognition guidance discussed in the recently adopted accounting principles section below. In the opinion of the Company's management, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The March 31, 2018 year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data in this document were derived from audited consolidated financial statements and does not include all of the disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 and notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods included in these condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year.

ACQUISITION

In April 2018, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with MarianaIQ, Inc. The total aggregate purchase price was $3.5 million, consisting of approximately $2.6 million paid at closing and $0.9 million in cash deposited into escrow to be held for fifteen months as security against indemnity claims made by the Company after the closing date. See Note 11 for additional information.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of 8x8 and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 filed with the SEC on May 30, 2018, and there have been no changes to the Company's significant accounting policies during the three months ended June 30, 2018 except for the accounting policies described below that were updated as a result of adopting Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 (ASU 2014-09 or ASC 606). ASU 2014-09 also included Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts with Customers, which sets forth the requirement of deferring incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. All amounts and disclosures set forth herein are in compliance with these standards.

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, which replaces numerous requirements in U.S. GAAP and provide companies with a single revenue recognition model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. ASC 606 requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. It defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates are required with the revenue recognition process than were required under the previous guidance (ASC 605).

The new standard permits the use of either the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. The Company adopted the new standard effective April 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. Under the modified retrospective method, the comparative periods' information is not restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect in those prior periods. Instead, on April 1, 2018, the Company recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying ASC 606 as an adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit and the corresponding balance sheet accounts, which resulted in a net decrease to accumulated deficit of $39.9 million. The impact on the Company's opening balances primarily relates to the capitalization of additional commission costs under ASC 606 in the amount of $38.2 million. Under ASC 605, the Company expensed all commission costs as incurred. Under the ASC 606, the Company defers all incremental commission costs to obtain the contract and amortizes these costs over a period of benefit of five years. The remaining $1.7 million impact of adopting the standard relates to revenue being recognized earlier under ASC 606 than it would have been under ASC 605. See Note 2 for additional impact and transition disclosures.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01 Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which amends various aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Therefore, the Company has prospectively adopted this new standard on April 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which provides guidance on how certain cash receipts and cash payments are to be presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Therefore, the Company has prospectively adopted this new standard on April 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated statement of cash flows.

In October 2016, the FASB has issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory, which provides guidance on how an entity should recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Therefore, the Company has prospectively adopted this new standard on April 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires companies to generally recognize on the balance sheet operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets. The update also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures designed to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases.  The update requires the use of a modified retrospective transition approach, which includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this pronouncement to its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2018, the FASB issued 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), which now provides guidance for share-based payments to non-employees, resulting in alignment in accounting for employees and non-employees. The amendment is effective for public companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this pronouncement to its consolidated financial statements.

2. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue Recognition under ASC 606

The Company recognizes service revenue, mainly from subscription services to its cloud-based voice, call center, video and collaboration solutions using the five-step model as prescribed by ASC 606:

  • Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
  • Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
  • Determination of the transaction price;
  • Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
  • Recognition of revenue when or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company identifies performance obligations in contracts with customers, which may include subscription services and related usage, product revenue and professional services. The transaction price is determined based on the amount expected to be entitled to in exchange for transferring the promised services or product to the customer. The Transaction price in the contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation in an amount that represents the relative amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for satisfying each performance obligation. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied. Revenues are recorded based on the transaction price excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties such as sales and telecommunication taxes, which are collected on behalf of and remitted to governmental authorities. The Company usually bills its customers on a monthly basis. Contracts typically range from annual to multi-year agreements with payment terms of net 30 days or less. The Company occasionally allows a 30-day period to cancel a subscription and return products shipped for a full refund.

Judgement and Estimates

The estimation of variable consideration for each performance obligation requires the Company to make subjective judgments. The Company has service-level agreements with customers warranting defined levels of uptime reliability and performance. Customers may get credits or refunds if the Company fails to meet such levels. If the services do not meet certain criteria, fees are subject to adjustment or refund representing a form of variable consideration. The Company also imposes minimum revenue commitments (MRC) on its customers at the inception of the contract. Thus, in estimating variable consideration for each of these performance obligations, the Company assesses both the probability of (MRC) occurring and the collectability of the MRC, of which both represent a form of variable consideration.

The Company enters into contracts with customers that regularly include promises to transfer multiple service and products, such as subscriptions, product, and professional services. For arrangements with multiple services, the Company evaluates whether the individual services qualify as distinct performance obligations. In its assessment of whether a service is a distinct performance obligation, the Company determines whether the customer can benefit from the service on its own or with other readily available resources and whether the service is separately identifiable from other services in the contract. This evaluation requires the Company to assess the nature of each individual service offering and how the services are provided in the context of the contract, including whether the services are significantly integrated, highly interrelated, or significantly modify each other, which may require judgment based on the facts and circumstances of the contract.

When agreements involve multiple distinct performance obligations, the Company allocates arrangement consideration to all performance obligations at the inception of an arrangement based on the relative standalone selling prices (SSP) of each performance obligation. Where the Company has standalone sales data for its performance obligations which are indicative of the price at which the Company sells a promised good or service separately to a customer, such data is used to establish SSP. In instances where standalone sales data is not available for a particular performance obligation, the Company estimates SSP by the use of observable market and cost-based inputs. The Company continues to review the factors used to establish list price and will adjust standalone selling price methodologies as necessary on a prospective basis.

Service Revenue

Service revenue from software subscriptions to the Company's cloud-based technology platform is recognized over time on a ratable basis over the contractual subscription term beginning on the date that the subscription is made available to the customer. Payments received in advance of subscription services being rendered are recorded as a deferred revenue. Usage fees, either bundled or not bundled, are recognized when the Company has a right to invoice. Professional services for configuration, system integration, optimization or education are primarily billed on a fixed-fee basis and are performed by the Company directly or, alternatively, clients may also choose to perform these services themselves or engage their own third-party service providers. Professional services revenue is recognized over time, generally as customer sites go live.

8


When a contract with a customer is signed, the Company assesses whether collection of the fees under the arrangement is probable. The Company estimates the amount to reserve for uncollectible amounts at the end of each reporting period based on the aging of the contract balance, current and historical customer trends, and communications with its customers. These reserves are recorded against the contract asset (Accounts Receivable). The Company also records reductions to revenue for estimated customer credits at the end of each reporting period. Customer credits are estimated based on current and historical customer trends, and communications with its customers.

Product Revenue

The Company recognizes product revenue at a point in time, when transfer of control has occurred, which is generally when delivery has occurred.

Sales returns are recorded as a reduction to revenue based on historical experience.

Contract Assets

Contract assets are recorded for those parts of the contract consideration not yet invoiced but for which the performance obligations are completed. The revenue is recognized the customer receives services or equipment for a reduced consideration at the onset of an arrangement, for example when the initial month's services or equipment are discounted. Contract assets are included other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenues represent billings or payments received in advance of revenue recognition and is recognized upon transfer of control. Balances consist primarily of annual plan subscription services and professional and training services not yet provided as of the balance sheet date. Deferred revenues that will be recognized during the succeeding 12-month period are recorded as current deferred revenues in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, with the remainder recorded as other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Costs to Obtain a Customer Contract

Sales commissions and related expenses are considered incremental and recoverable costs of acquiring customer contracts. These costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the anticipated benefit period, which is five years. The benefit period was estimated by taking into consideration the length of customer contracts, technology lifecycle, and other factors. This amortization expense is recorded in sales and marketing expense within the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Practical Expedients

The Company applies a practical expedient that permits the Company to apply Subtopic 340-40 to a single portfolio of contracts, as they are similar in their characteristics, and the financial statement effects of applying Subtopic 340-40 to that portfolio would not differ materially from applying it to the individual contracts within that portfolio.

Adoption Impact of ASC 606

The Company recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying ASC 606 as an adjustment to retained earnings in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of April 1, 2018 (in thousands).

Contract Balances

The following table provides information about receivables, contract assets and deferred revenues from contracts with customers (in thousands):

      June 30, 2018
Accounts receivable, net   $ 17,725 
Other current assets   $ 1,697 
Deferred revenue - current   $ 2,838 
Deferred revenue - noncurrent   $ 16 

Changes in the contract assets and the deferred revenues balances during the three months ended June 30, 2018 are as follows (in thousands):

    April 1, 2018   June 30, 2018   $ Change
Other current assets   $ 1,725    $ 1,697    $ (28)
Deferred revenue   $ 2,578    $ 2,854    $ 276 

The decrease in contract assets was primarily driven by the recognition of revenue that has not yet been billed. The increase in deferred revenues was due to billings in advance of performance obligations being satisfied. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, $1.4 million of revenue recognized was included in the deferred revenues balance at the beginning of the period, which was offset by additional deferrals during the period.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The Company's subscription terms range from one to three years. Contract revenue as of June 30, 2018, that has not yet been recognized was approximately $130 million. This excludes contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. The Company expects to recognize revenue on the vast majority of the remaining performance obligation over the next 24 months.

Stock Repurchases

In May 2017, the Company's board of directors authorized the Company to purchase $25.0 million of its common stock from time to time under the 2017 Repurchase Plan (the "2017 Plan"). The 2017 Plan expires when the maximum purchase amount is reached, or upon the earlier revocation or termination by the board of directors. The remaining amount available under the 2017 Plan at June 30, 2018 was approximately $7.1 million. There were no stock repurchases under the 2017 Plan during the three month period ended June 30, 2018.

8. INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective tax rate was -0.6% and 36.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The effective tax rate is calculated by dividing the income tax provision by net income before income tax expense. The difference in the effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate was due primarily to the change in pretax profitability, and geographic mix of profits and losses and the full valuation allowance recorded during fiscal 2018.

Total anti-dilutive shares     10,311      9,351 

10. SEGMENT REPORTING AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

The Company manages its operations primarily on a geographic basis. The Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, and the Chief Technology Officer or the Company's Chief Operating Decision Makers (CODMs), evaluate performance of the Company and make decisions regarding allocation of resources based on geographic results. The Company's reportable segments are the Americas and Europe. The Americas segment is primarily North America. The Europe segment is primarily the United Kingdom. Each operating segment provides similar products and services.

Revenues are attributed to each segment based on the ordering location of the customer or ship to location.

15


The following tables set forth the segment and geographic information for each period (in thousands):

      Revenue for the
      Three Months Ended
      June 30,

Europe (principally UK)     8,239      6,693 
    $ 83,225    $ 69,098 

Revenue is based upon the destination of shipments and the customers' service address. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, intersegment revenues of approximately $6.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively, were eliminated in consolidation, and have been excluded from the table above.

11. ACQUISITIONS

MarianaIQ

On April 12, 2018, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with MarianaIQ Inc. (MarianaIQ) for the purchase of certain assets of MarianaIQ. The total aggregate purchase price was $3.5 million, consisting of approximately $2.6 million in cash paid to MarianaIQ at closing, and $0.9 million in cash to be held in escrow by the Company for fifteen months, as security against indemnity claims asserted by the Company after the closing date. The escrow amount is recorded as other accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2018.

16


The Company recorded the acquired developed technology as an identifiable intangible asset with an estimated useful life of two years. The fair value of the technology was based on estimates and assumptions made by management using a cost approach method. The intangible asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over two years.

The excess of the consideration transferred over the aggregate fair value of the asset acquired was recorded as goodwill. The amount of goodwill recognized was primarily attributable to the expected contributions of the entity to the overall corporate strategy in addition to the acquired workforce.

The preliminary fair values of the assets acquired are as follows (in thousands):

      Fair Value
Assets acquired:      
     Intangible assets   $ 3,200 
          Net identifiable assets acquired     3,200 
     Goodwill     300 
          Total consideration transferred   $ 3,500 

MarianaIQ did not contribute to revenue or net loss for the period of acquisition to June 30, 2018. Goodwill recognized upon acquisition is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes and is included in the Americas reporting unit (see Note 5). Total acquisition costs were immaterial.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

We are a leading provider of global cloud communications and customer engagement solutions to over a million business users worldwide. Our suite of products integrates cloud communications, conferencing, collaboration and contact center solutions so today's organization can deliver exceptional employee and customer experiences. Our technology provides one integrated platform for employees and customers engagement solutions, as well as a real-time data analytics platform for constant learning and improvement.

SUMMARY AND OUTLOOK

In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, our service revenue from mid-market and enterprise customers grew 28% year-over year and represented 61% of total service revenue. Average monthly service revenue per mid-market and enterprise business customer (ARPU) increased 8% to a record $4,953, compared with $4,592 in the same period last year. The increase resulted from our success in selling a greater number of subscriptions to larger, more established customers.

In July 2018, we announced general availability of 8x8 X Series -- a single cloud platform which delivers a system of intelligence for voice, video conferencing, contact center, team messaging and collaboration across mobile and desktop devices.  8x8 X Series is available in the U.S. and U.K. with multiple plans from X1 to X8 to meet different business needs for our small, mid-market and enterprise customers.

Our focus is on disrupting the market and pursuing the resulting opportunity. We will continue to invest in talent, marketing and demand generation activities, product innovation and global expansion to grow revenue, drive brand awareness, and deliver exceptional customer and employee engagement experiences to our customers through 8x8 X Series. We expect our operating expenses to grow materially in all categories as we continue to invest in accelerating revenue growth. In achieving these objectives, we face many risks, including those described under "RISK FACTORS", disclosed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto.

      June 30,     Dollar   Percent
Service revenue     2018     2017     Change   Change
      (dollar amounts in thousands)    
Three months ended   $ 78,121    $ 65,091    $ 13,030    20.0%
Percentage of total revenue     93.9%     94.2%          

Service revenue consists primarily of our 8x8 cloud communication and collaboration services.

Service revenues increased for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared with the same period of the previous fiscal year primarily due to an increase in our business customer subscriber base (net of customer churn), and an increase in the average monthly service revenue per customer. Average monthly service revenue per customer increased from $432 at June 30, 2017 to $480 at June 30, 2018.

We expect growth in the number of business customers and average monthly service revenue per customer to continue for the remainder of fiscal 2019.

      June 30,     Dollar   Percent
Product revenue     2018     2017     Change   Change
      (dollar amounts in thousands)    
Three months ended   $ 5,104    $ 4,007    $ 1,097    27.4%
Percentage of total revenue     6.1%     5.8%          

Product revenue consists primarily of revenue from sales of IP telephones in conjunction with our 8x8 cloud communication service. Product revenue increased for the three months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, primarily due to an increase in equipment sales to business customers.

No customer represented greater than 10% of the Company's total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2018 or 2017.

      June 30,     Dollar   Percent
Cost of service revenue     2018     2017     Change   Change
      (dollar amounts in thousands)    
Three months ended   $ 15,079    $ 11,662    $ 3,417    29.3%
Percentage of service revenue     19.3%     17.9%          

The cost of service revenue primarily consists of costs associated with network operations and related personnel, communication origination and termination services provided by third-party carriers, and technology licenses.

Cost of service revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased over the comparable period in the prior fiscal year primarily due to a $1.4 million increase in amortization of intangibles and capitalized software expenses, a $1.0 million increase in third-party network services expenses, and a $0.4 million increase in payroll and related costs.

We expect cost of service revenue to remain at a consistent as a percentage of service revenue during the remainder of fiscal year 2019.

      June 30,     Dollar   Percent
Cost of product revenue     2018     2017     Change   Change
      (dollar amounts in thousands)

Percentage of product revenue     123.1%     121.9%          

The cost of product revenue consists primarily of telephones, estimated warranty obligations and direct and indirect costs associated with product purchasing, shipping and handling.

The cost of product revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased over the comparable period in the prior fiscal year primarily due to the increase in the number of telephones shipped to customers. The increase in negative margin was due to additional discounting of phones in the current period.

Percentage of total revenue     15.8%     11.5%          

Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel, consulting, and equipment costs necessary for us to conduct our development and engineering efforts.

The research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased over the comparable period in the prior fiscal year primarily due to a $2.4 million increase in payroll and related costs (primarily related to a department reclassification from sales and marketing), net of costs capitalized in accordance with ASC 350-40, a $1.3 million increase in consulting and outside services, a $0.8 million increase in stock-based compensation expense, a $0.4 million increase in purchased software expenses, as well as other smaller cost increases.

We expect research and development expenses to moderately increase as a percentage of total revenue during the remainder of fiscal year 2019 as we continue to invest in our product offerings.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel and related overhead costs for sales, marketing, and customer service which includes deployment engineering. Such costs also include outsourced customer service call center operations, sales commissions, as well as trade show, advertising and other marketing and promotional expenses.

Sales and marketing expenses for three months ended June 30, 2018 increased over the comparable period in the prior fiscal year primarily due to a $4.0 million increase in payroll and related costs (partially offset by a department reclassification to research and development), a $1.9 million increase in travel expenses, a $1.3 million increase in lead generation expenses, a $1.2 million increase in stock-based compensation costs, a $1.0 million increase in consulting, temporary personnel, and outside services, and a $0.6 million increase in recruiting expenses.

We expect sales and marketing expenses to remain consistent as a percentage of total revenue during the remainder of fiscal year 2019 as we continue to invest in the acquisition of customers.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel and related overhead costs for finance, human resources, legal and general management.

General and administrative expenses for three months ended June 30, 2018 increased over the comparable period in the prior fiscal year primarily due to a $1.2 million increase in rent expense related to our new headquarters, which we started to build out during the first quarter of fiscal 2019, and a $0.9 million increase related to payroll and related costs.

We expect general and administrative expenses to moderately increase as a percentage of total revenue during the remainder of fiscal year 2019 to support business growth.

Percentage of total revenue     0.9%     3.0%          

Other income, net, primarily consisted of interest income earned on our cash, cash equivalents and investments and amortization or accretion of investments in fiscal years 2019 and 2018. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, $1.4 million of the cash held in an escrow fund from our 2015 acquisition of DXI was returned to us and recorded as other income.

Percentage of income (loss) before                   
     provision (benefit) for income taxes     -0.6%     36.3%      

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded income tax expense of $0.1 million, related to state minimum taxes and income from our profitable operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, we recorded an income tax benefit of $1.2 million, related to loss from operations. Our effective tax rate was -0.6% and 36.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The change in our effective tax rate was due primarily to the full valuation allowance recorded in fiscal 2018, the change in pretax profitability, and geographic mix of profits and losses.

We estimate our annual effective tax rate at the end of each quarter. In estimating the annual effective tax rate, we consider, among other things, annual pre-tax income, permanent tax differences, the geographic mix of pre-tax income and the application and interpretations of existing tax laws. We record the tax effect of certain discrete items, which are unusual or occur infrequently, in the interim period in which they occur, including changes in judgment about deferred tax valuation allowances. The determination of the effective tax rate reflects tax expense and benefit generated in certain domestic and foreign jurisdictions. However, jurisdictions with a year-to-date loss where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the annual effective tax rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2018, we had $153 million in cash, restricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was approximately $0.8 million, compared with $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Cash provided by operating activities has historically been affected by the amount of net income (loss), changes in working capital accounts particularly in the timing and collection of payments, add-backs of non-cash expense items such as deferred taxes, depreciation and amortization, and with stock-based compensation.

21


The net cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $1.8 million, during which we had proceeds from maturity and sale of short term investments of approximately $10.8 million, net of purchases of short term investments, capitalized $5.1 million of software costs in accordance with ASC 350-40, invested in $2.6 million in the acquisition of MarianaIQ, and spent approximately $1.2 million on the purchase of property and equipment. The net cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $6.4 million, during which we had proceeds from maturity and sale of short term investments of $9.4 million, net of purchases of short term investments. We spent approximately $2.3 million on the purchase of property and equipment, and we capitalized $2.1 million of internal use software.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.5 million, which consisted of $1.0 million of cash received from the issuance of common stock under our employee stock plans, offset by $0.3 million of capital lease payments and $0.2 million of repurchases of our common stock related to shares withheld for payroll taxes. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $0.7 million, which consisted of by $1.1 million of repurchases of our common stock related to shares withheld for payroll taxes, $0.4 million of payments on capital leases, offset by $0.7 million of cash received from the issuance of common stock under our employee stock plans.

Contractual Obligations

There were no significant changes in our commitments under contractual obligations during the three months ended June 30, 2018, as disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended March 31, 2018.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES & ESTIMATES

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

There have been no significant changes during the three months ended June 30, 2018 to our critical accounting policies and estimates previously disclosed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, except for our adoption of ASC 606 as discussed in Notes 1 and 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

See Item 1 of Part I, "Financial Statements - Note 1 - Basis of Presentation - Recent Accounting Pronouncements."

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Fluctuation Risk

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing income without significantly increasing risk. Some of the securities in which we invest may be subject to market risk. This means that a change in prevailing interest rates may cause the principal amount of the investment to fluctuate. To minimize this risk, we may maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents and investments in a variety of shorter term securities, including commercial paper, money market funds, debt securities and certificates of deposit. The risk associated with fluctuating interest rates is limited to our investment portfolio and we do not believe that a hypothetical change in interest rates of 100 basis points would have a significant impact on our interest income.

We do not have any outstanding debt instruments other than equipment under capital leases and, therefore, we were not exposed to market risk relating to interest rates.

22


Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We have foreign currency risks related to our revenue and operating expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the British Pound, causing both our revenue and our operating results to be impacted by fluctuations in the exchange rates.

Gains or losses from the translation of certain cash balances, accounts receivable balances and intercompany balances that are denominated in these currencies impact our net income (loss). A hypothetical decrease in all foreign currencies against the US dollar of 10 percent, would not result in a material foreign currency loss on foreign-denominated balances. As our foreign operations expand, our results may be more impacted by fluctuations in the exchange rates of the currencies in which we do business.

At this time, we do not, but we may in the future, enter into financial instruments to hedge our foreign currency exchange risk.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Disclosure Controls) that are designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports filed or submitted under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our Disclosure Controls. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our Disclosure Controls were effective as of June 30, 2018.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our Disclosure Controls or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we become involved in various legal claims and litigation that arise in the normal course of our operations. While the results of such claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we are not currently aware of any such matters that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As of August 2, 2018, the Company was not a party in any material litigation matter.

23


ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We face many significant risks in our business, some of which are unknown to us and not presently foreseen. These risks could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations in the future. We have disclosed a number of material risks under Part I, Item 1A of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, which we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 30, 2018. There have been no material changes from the risk factors described in our Form 10-K.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
