Note 1 — General

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of eLoyalty Corporation (we or eLoyalty) include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position as of March 29, 2003, the consolidated results of our operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 29, 2003 and March 30, 2002, and are in conformity with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.

     The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2002.

Note 2 — Severance and related costs

     eLoyalty recognized pre-tax charges of $1,260 and $2,410 (including adjustments of $320), in the three month periods ending March 29, 2003 and March 30, 2002, respectively. The $1,260 charge in the first quarter of 2003 primarily related to employee severance payments and related costs for the elimination of 22 positions, in both the North American and International segments. The $2,410 charge in the first quarter of 2002 primarily related to employee severance payments and related costs for the elimination of 40 positions, in both the North American and International segments.

     Severance costs are comprised primarily of contractual salary and related fringe benefits over the severance payment period. Facility costs include losses on contractual lease commitments, net of estimated sublease recoveries, and impairment of leasehold improvements and certain office assets. Other costs include laptop costs and other contractual computer lease termination costs, and other employee related expenses.

     During the quarter ended March 29, 2003, eLoyalty made cash payments of $1,935 related to cost reduction actions initiated in 2003 and earlier periods. Annual savings resulting from cost reduction actions initiated in 2003 are expected to be approximately $3,300 and be fully realized in 2004. eLoyalty expects substantially all first quarter 2003 severance and other charges to be paid out by the end of 2003 pursuant to agreements entered into with affected employees.

     The severance and related costs and their utilization as of the quarter ended March 29, 2003 are as follows (in thousands):

     Of the $6,683 that remains reserved as of March 29, 2003, $1,987 related to future lease payments, net of estimated sublease recoveries, is recorded in “Long-term liabilities,” $2,229 related to severance payments is recorded in “Accrued compensation and related costs” and the balance of $2,467 is recorded in “Other current liabilities.” Of the balance in “Other current liabilities,” $1,668 relates to lease payments and is expected to be paid over the next twelve months. eLoyalty has adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 146 effective December 29, 2002.
