PART I

 
Item 1. Business

Overview

      Informatica Corporation is a leading provider of data integration and business intelligence software. Using Informatica products and services, Global 2000 large to mid-size companies can integrate and transform enterprise data from any system into timely, accurate business insight for improving business performance, increasing customer lifetime value, streamlining supply chain operations and proactively managing regulatory compliance. Our products are designed to help our customers gain valuable insight into their business, which they can use to help improve business performance, increase customer satisfaction and enhance competitive advantage.

      Over the last two decades, companies have made significant investments in a variety of transactional applications — including Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Supply Chain Management (SCM) software — to automate specific business functions, including general ledger, human resources, customer relationships, and the supply chain. The ultimate goal of deploying these applications is to make businesses more efficient through automation. However, these transactional applications generate massive volumes of information in disparate software systems that typically do not talk to each other or share data. Organizations are now finding that the strategic value of information technology goes beyond process automation. Companies are realizing that, to make better business decisions, they need to have one unified and complete view of all of the information about their customers, suppliers and operations. When armed with one comprehensive view of their business, IT and decision makers can use that information to collaborate internally or externally with their customers, suppliers and partners to improve performance and productivity.

      We address this need with the Informatica platform: a unified data integration and business intelligence software solution. Our products are designed to integrate data from the enterprise’s various systems for the delivery of insight to business users across the entire organization, helping them to make better decisions — ultimately turning information into competitive advantage. The Informatica platform handles a broad range of enterprise-wide integration projects including: business intelligence/ data warehousing, legacy migration, data synchronization, consolidation, reconciled single view/ reference hub and real-time Business Activity Monitoring (BAM). The Informatica platform helps enable and accelerate data integration, metadata management and business intelligence initiatives, allowing enterprises to improve strategic aspects of their business performance, including direct and indirect sales, marketing, customer service, operations, finance, human resources, procurement, manufacturing, and supply chain.

      We recently acquired Striva Corporation, a provider of mainframe integration solutions with whom we have had an OEM relationship for over two years. Striva’s patented technology, which includes mainframe solutions for high-speed bulk data movement and real-time change capture, can help companies more effectively access the vast amounts of enterprise data on mainframes for mission-critical business decisions. The acquisition of Striva will permit us to fully incorporate Striva’s hi-speed mainframe data movement technology into our existing software products. We expect this combination to allow us to extend the reach of our enterprise data integration and business intelligence products in order to meet the growing customer demand for mainframe data integration across transactional, operational and analytical systems.

      We have over 1,900 customers from a wide variety of industries ranging from high technology to manufacturing, and from financial services to telecommunications. We market and sell our software and services through our direct sales force in the United States as well as Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. We maintain relationships with a variety of strategic partners to jointly develop, market, sell and/or implement our solutions. We also have relationships with distributors in various regions, including Asia-Pacific, Australia, Europe, Japan and Latin America, who sublicense our products and provide service and support within their territories. More than 40 independent software vendors, including several of our strategic partners, have licensed our technology for inclusion in their products.

      We began selling our first products in 1996. To date, substantially all of our revenues have been derived from our data integration products such as PowerCenter, PowerMart, PowerConnect and related services, and to a much lesser extent, business intelligence products and related services. We have incurred significant net losses since our inception, including net losses of $15.6 million and $45.0 million in 2002 and 2001, respectively. Although we were profitable in 2003, we may not consistently achieve profitability in the future. See “Risk Factors — We have a limited operating history and a history of losses, which makes it difficult to evaluate our operations, products and prospects for the future.” As of December 31, 2003, we had an accumulated deficit of $90.7 million.

      Our corporate headquarters are located at 2100 Seaport Boulevard, Redwood City, California 94063, and our telephone number at that location is (650) 385-5000. We can also be reached at our Web site at www.informatica.com; however, the information in, or that can be accessed through, our Web site is not part of this report. We were incorporated in California in February 1993 and reincorporated in Delaware in April 1999.

      A copy of our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to these reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are available, free of charge, on our Web site as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.

Our Products

      Our products help our customers to better manage information complexity in their organization. Our adaptive software provides improved data integrity and greater visibility of enterprise data and processes.

      Our data integration products feature an adaptive, high performance and scalable architecture designed to accommodate the demanding requirements of large and growing global organizations. Our data integration products access and transform data from a large variety of systems and deliver it to other transactional systems, data warehouses and analytic applications. PowerCenter 7 is the latest release of our data integration platform and features several innovations that facilitate team-based development, data profiling, web services and grid computing in a highly secure environment. In addition, with the acquisition of Striva, we strengthened our PowerExchange product family to enable organizations to access batch and changed data from complex mainframe, legacy and relational systems and deliver that data at the frequency demanded by the business.

      Our business intelligence software, PowerAnalyzer, is an Internet-centric product designed to meet our customers’ overall business intelligence requirements, including dashboards, scorecarding, query and analysis, reporting and advanced analytics. PowerAnalyzer is designed to give IT staff and end users intuitive access to critical, personalized data at the point of work. PowerAnalyzer allows users to be alerted to, navigate through and interact with key business metrics such as sales trends, customer order records and supplier scorecards on a real-time basis.

      The Informatica platform also includes Informatica SuperGlue. Introduced in 2003, SuperGlue is an enterprise metadata management solution that integrates metadata from disparate systems and offers visualization and analysis capabilities for enhanced understanding of an organization’s IT environment. Using SuperGlue, IT staff and business decision makers gain cross-system visibility that helps enable rapid impact assessment as changes occur in the business, investigate the origins of the data driving business decisions and identify information asset redundancies. With SuperGlue, organizations can benefit from enhanced corporate agility, greater confidence in their data, and increased cost savings.

Our Market Positioning

      Comprehensive Data Integration Platform. Our strategy is to provide our customers with a comprehensive data integration platform to help them quickly and cost effectively implement data integration and business intelligence solutions to maximize their information assets and improve their IT performance and business effectiveness. The combination of our products PowerCenter, SuperGlue, PowerAnalyzer and PowerExchange provide our customers with a comprehensive data integration platform, offering low total cost of ownership, fast time to value and low risk to business changes.

      Real-Time, Highly Scalable and Flexible Data Integration, Metadata Management and Insight. Our products are designed to support the needs of large global enterprises using our highly scalable and adaptable architecture. This year we introduced the incorporation of team-based development, data profiling, web services and grid computing in a highly secure environment into our data integration product offering.

      In addition, our products are developed to interoperate with major software applications, tools and technologies. The open architecture design of our products helps enable our customers to leverage their existing investment in computing platforms, applications and data sources, and provide the flexibility to adapt to future standards. Our metadata management capabilities help enable cross-system visibility for rapid impact assessment as changes occur in enterprises, and provide the audit trail necessary to deliver confidence in data lineage to IT and the business.

      Our ability to access bulk and changed data from complex mainframe, legacy, and distributed RDBMSs and combine it with near real-time data movement capabilities enables our products to keep disparate databases and systems synchronized and maintain one view of the truth among different applications. Our business intelligence software is built with modern, intuitive dashboards, scorecards and guided analysis tools and can be pushed out to a variety of mobile devices.

      Significant Installed Customer Base and Community of Developers. We have an installed customer base that spans a wide range of industries. As of December 31, 2003, over 1,900 customers around the world and 83% of the Fortune 100 companies have licensed our products. The Informatica Developer Network, created in 2001, has grown to over 12,000 members in eighty countries using Informatica’s products to build

Table of Contents

their own data warehouses and analytic solutions. Our success at each customer site serves to strengthen our brand awareness while providing an opportunity to up-sell and cross-sell additional products.

      Strong Base of Leading Strategic Partners. We have alliances and strategic partnerships with leading enterprise software providers, systems integrators and hardware vendors. These alliances provide sales and marketing leverage and access to required technology, while also providing complementary products and services to our joint customers. More than 40 companies now OEM our core products. In sum, more than 300 companies market and resell our products around the world.

Research and Development

      As of December 31, 2003, we employed 250 people in our research and development organization. This team is responsible for the design, development and release of our products. The group is organized into four disciplines: development, quality assurance, documentation and program management. Members from each discipline, along with a product-marketing manager from our marketing department, form separate product teams that work closely with sales, marketing, services, customers and prospects to better understand market needs and user requirements. These product teams utilize a well-defined software development methodology that we believe enables us to deliver products that satisfy real business needs for the global market while also meeting commercial quality expectations.

      When appropriate, we also utilize third parties to expand the capacity and technical expertise of our internal research and development team. On occasion, we have licensed third-party technology. We believe this approach shortens time-to-market without compromising competitive position or product quality, and we plan to continue to draw on third-party resources as needed in the future.

      In 2003, Informatica continued to make use of a small offshore development team based in the Netherlands for work on portions of our business intelligence platform. Also in 2003 we expanded our offshore development to India to do quality assurance and development on our data integration and business intelligence platforms. This offshore development is intended to increase development productivity. Our research and development expenditures were $47.3 million in 2003, $45.6 million in 2002, and $46.3 million in 2001.

Sales, Marketing and Distribution

      We market and sell software and services through both our direct sales force and indirect channel partners in the United States as well as Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, and also through various regions around the world. As of December 31, 2003, we employed 267 people in our sales and marketing organization worldwide.

      Marketing programs are focused on creating awareness as well as lead generation and customer references for our products. These programs are targeted at key executives such as chief executive officers, chief information officers, other information technology managers and vice presidents of specific functional areas, such as marketing, sales, service, finance, human resources, manufacturing, distribution and procurement. Our marketing personnel engage in a variety of activities, including positioning our software products and services, conducting public relations programs, establishing and maintaining relationships with industry analysts, producing product collateral and generating qualified sales leads.

      Our sales process consists of several phases: lead generation, opportunity qualification, needs assessment, product demonstration, proposal generation and contract negotiation. Although the typical sales cycle requires three to six months, some sales cycles in the past have lasted substantially longer. In a number of instances, our relationships with systems integrators and other strategic partners have reduced sales cycles by generating qualified sales leads, making initial customer contacts and assessing needs prior to our introduction to the customer. Also, partners have assisted in the creation of presentations and demonstrations, which we believe enhances our overall value proposition and competitive position.

      In addition to our direct sales efforts, we distribute our products through systems integrators, resellers, distributors and OEM partners in the United States and internationally. Systems integrators typically have

7


Table of Contents

expertise in vertical or functional markets. They resell our products, bundling them, in most cases, with their broader service offerings. In other cases, they influence direct sales of our products. Distributors sublicense our products and provide service and support within their territories. OEMs embed portions of our technology in their product offerings.

Intellectual Property and Other Proprietary Rights

      Our success depends upon our proprietary technology. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret rights, confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements to establish and protect our proprietary rights. As part of our confidentiality procedures, we generally enter into non-disclosure agreements with our employees, distributors and corporate partners and into license agreements with respect to our software, documentation and other proprietary information. In addition, we have seven patents granted in the U.S., 17 patent applications pending in the U.S., and 40 corresponding international patent applications pending.

Competition

      The market for our products is highly competitive, quickly evolving and subject to rapidly changing technology. Our competition consists of hand-coded, custom-built data integration solutions developed in-house by various companies in the industry segments that we target, as well as other vendors of integration software products, including Ascential Software, Embarcadero Technologies, Group 1 Software and certain privately-held companies. In addition, we compete against business intelligence vendors that currently offer, or may develop, products with functionalities that compete with our products, such as Business Objects, Cognos, Hyperion Solutions, MicroStrategy and certain privately-held companies. We also compete against certain database and enterprise application vendors, which offer products that typically operate specifically with these competitors’ proprietary databases. Such potential competitors include IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, PeopleSoft, SAP and Siebel Systems.

      We currently compete more on the basis of our products’ functionality than on the basis of price. Additionally, we compete on the basis of certain other factors, including:

  •  product capabilities including openness, standards, performance, scalability, ease of use and reliability;
 
  •  low total cost of ownership encompassing reusability, reduced training, pricing, low maintenance and productivity gains;
 
  •  time to market;
 
  •  services and support;
 
  •  relationships with strategic partners that can help market and sell our products; and
 
  •  proven success and experience.

      We believe that we currently compete favorably with respect to the above factors. For a further discussion of our competition, see “Risk Factors — If we do not compete effectively with companies selling data integration and business intelligence products, our revenues may not grow and could decline.”

Employees

      As of December 31, 2003, we had a total of 800 employees, including 250 people in research and development, 267 people in sales and marketing, 181 people in consulting, customer support and training and 102 people in general and administrative services. None of our employees is represented by a labor union. We have not experienced any work stoppages, and we consider employee relations to be good.

 
Item 2. Properties

      Our headquarters are located in two buildings at the Pacific Shores Center in Redwood City, California. These buildings comprise 290,300 square feet of office space and are leased through July 2013. We also lease

Table of Contents

6,500 square feet of office space for sales activities in New York, New York through February 2010 and 5,300 square feet of office space for sales, professional services and product development activities in Plano, Texas through October 2007 (with two five-year renewal options). We occupy approximately 10,000 square feet of office space in Maidenhead, United Kingdom for our European headquarters leased through May 2010 and approximately 9,600 square feet of office space in Amsterdam, the Netherlands through October 2007 (with a five-year renewal option). We assumed operating leases as the result of our acquisition of Striva Corporation in September 2003 for office space in Uxbridge, England, Scotts Valley, California and Austin, Texas, which comprise approximately 5,500 square feet, 6,700 square feet and 11,600 square feet, and expire in December 2004, May 2005 and July 2004, respectively. We also lease other office space in the United States and other various countries under operating leases.

      In addition, we lease excess office space in Palo Alto, California, Carrolton, Texas and San Francisco, California. We lease 30,000 square feet in Palo Alto, California under a lease that expires in July 2007, of which 23,000 square feet is subleased under two separate subleases from October 2002 through September 2005. In November 2002, we subleased the entire 29,000 square feet in Carrollton, Texas for the remainder of the lease term through January 2006. In San Francisco, California we lease approximately 19,200 square feet under a lease that expires in March 2007, which is entirely subleased through the remainder of the lease term. In Redwood City, California, 4,000 square feet is subleased from November 2003 to May 2005. We are still attempting to sublease our surplus properties for the remaining lease terms. See Notes 6 and 7 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8.

 
Item 3. Legal Proceedings

      On November 8, 2001, a purported securities class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case is entitled In re Informatica Corporation Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, Civ. No. 01-9922 (SAS) (S.D.N.Y.), related to In re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, 21 MC 92 (SAS) (S.D.N.Y.). Plaintiffs’ amended complaint was brought purportedly on behalf of all persons who purchased our common stock from April 29, 1999 through December 6, 2000. It names as defendants Informatica Corporation, one of our current officers, and one of our former officers (the “Informatica defendants”), and several investment banking firms that served as underwriters of our April 29, 1999 initial public offering and September 28, 2000 follow-on public offering. The complaint alleges liability as to all defendants under Sections 11 and/or 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b) and/or 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, on the grounds that the registration statements for the offerings did not disclose that: (1) the underwriters had agreed to allow certain customers to purchase shares in the offerings in exchange for excess commissions paid to the underwriters; and (2) the underwriters had arranged for certain customers to purchase additional shares in the aftermarket at predetermined prices. The complaint also alleges that false analyst reports were issued. No specific damages are claimed.

      Similar allegations were made in other lawsuits challenging over 300 other initial public offerings and follow-on offerings conducted in 1999 and 2000. The cases were consolidated for pretrial purposes. On February 19, 2003, the Court ruled on all defendants’ motions to dismiss. The Court denied the motions to dismiss the claims under the Securities Act of 1933. The Court denied the motion to dismiss the Section 10(b) claim against Informatica and 184 other issuer defendants. The Court denied the motion to dismiss the Section 10(b) and 20(a) claims against the Informatica defendants and 62 other individual defendants.

      We have decided to accept a settlement proposal presented to all issuer defendants. In this settlement, plaintiffs will dismiss and release all claims against the Informatica defendants, in exchange for a contingent payment by the insurance companies collectively responsible for insuring the issuers in all of the IPO cases, and for the assignment or surrender of control of certain claims we may have against the underwriters. The Informatica defendants will not be required to make any cash payments in the settlement, unless the pro rata amount paid by the insurers in the settlement exceeds the amount of the insurance coverage, a circumstance which we do not believe will occur. The settlement will require approval of the Court, which cannot be assured, after class members are given the opportunity to object to the settlement or opt out of the settlement.

      On July 15, 2002, we filed a patent infringement action in U.S. District Court in Northern California against Acta Technology, Inc. (“Acta”), now known as Business Objects Data Integration, Inc. (“BODI”), asserting that certain Acta products infringe on three of our patents: U.S. Patent No. 6,014,670, entitled “Apparatus and Method for Performing Data Transformations in Data Warehousing;” U.S. Patent No. 6,339,775, entitled “Apparatus and Method for Performing Data Transformations in Data Warehousing” (this patent is a continuation-in-part of and claims the benefit of U.S. Patent No. 6,014,670); and U.S. Patent No. 6,208,990, entitled “Method and Architecture for Automated Optimization of ETL Throughput in Data Warehousing Applications.” On July 17, 2002, we filed an amended complaint alleging that Acta products also infringe on one additional patent: U.S. Patent No. 6,044,374, entitled “Object References for Sharing Metadata in Data Marts.” In the suit, we are seeking an injunction against future sales of the infringing Acta/ BODI products, as well as damages for past sales of the infringing products. We have asserted that BODI’s infringement of our patents was willful and deliberate. On September 5, 2002, BODI answered the complaint and filed counterclaims against us seeking a declaration that each patent asserted is not infringed and is invalid and unenforceable. BODI did not make any claims for monetary relief against us. The parties presented their respective claim constructions to the Court on September 24, 2003 and are awaiting the Court’s ruling. The matter is currently in the discovery phase.

      We are also a party to various legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, arising from the normal course of business activities.

      In management’s opinion, resolution of any of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse impact on the results of operations, cash flows or our financial position.
