NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on substantially the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Siebel Systems, Inc. (the "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations regarding interim financial statements. All amounts included herein related to the consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2003, and the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, are unaudited. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for their fair presentation. The interim results presented are not necessarily indicative of results for any subsequent quarter or for the year ending December 31, 2003. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of unaudited consolidated financial statements requires that the Company make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, provision for doubtful accounts and sales returns, fair value of investments, fair value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, income taxes, restructuring obligations, and contingencies and litigation, among others. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed 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 could differ significantly from the estimates made by management with respect to these items and other items that require management's estimates.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its employee stock-based compensation plans using the intrinsic value method, as prescribed by APB No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and interpretations thereof (collectively referred to as "APB 25"). Accordingly, the Company records deferred compensation costs related to its employee stock options when the current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of each stock option on the date of grant. The Company records and measures deferred compensation for stock options granted to non-employees, other than members of the Company's Board of Directors, based on the fair value of the stock options. Deferred compensation is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the related stock option. The Company did not grant any stock options at exercise prices below the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003.
As of June 30, 2003, the Company's deferred compensation balances primarily related to stock awards issued in the fourth quarter of 2002 and the remaining unamortized portion of compensation expense associated with stock options granted by certain acquired companies and converted under the terms of the agreements between the Company and the companies acquired. The Company is amortizing the deferred compensation on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting periods, which range from three to five years.
An alternative method to the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based compensation is the fair value approach prescribed by SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," as amended by SFAS No. 148 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation--Transition and Disclosure" (collectively referred to as "SFAS 123"). If the Company followed the fair value approach, the Company would be required to record deferred compensation based on the fair value of the stock option at the date of grant. The fair value of the stock option is required to be computed using an option-pricing model, such as the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The deferred compensation calculated under the fair value method would then be amortized over the respective vesting period of the stock option.
As required by SFAS 123, the Company has prepared a reconciliation of its net income as reported on the statement of operations to the net income that the Company would have reported if it had followed SFAS 123 in accounting for its stock-based compensation arrangements. For purposes of this reconciliation, the Company added back all stock-based employee compensation expense recorded in accordance with APB 25 in the statement of operations, then deducted the stock-based employee compensation expense determined under SFAS 123. Summarized below are the pro forma effects on net income and net income per share data, if the Company had elected to use the fair value approach prescribed by SFAS 123 to account for its employee stock-based compensation plans (in thousands, except per share data):

In-the-money stock options in the above table have exercise prices below the closing price of the Company's common stock on June 30, 2003, of $9.48, and out-of-the-money stock options have exercise prices equal to or greater than $9.48.
As the table above illustrates, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, $46,719,000 and $347,671,000, respectively, of the total pro forma expense for stock options relates to: (i) stock options that were cancelled for no consideration, (ii) stock options forfeited by employees upon termination for no consideration, or (iii) stock options that are significantly out of the money (i.e., the weighted-average exercise price of the out-of-the-money stock options is $22.25 per share compared to a closing price of $9.48 per share as of June 30, 2003). This represented 86% and 96% of the pro forma expense for stock options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively.
Consistent with the Company's accounting for deferred tax assets resulting from the exercise of employee stock options in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company has not provided a tax benefit on the pro forma expense in the above table.
The Company determined the assumptions used in computing the fair value of stock options or stock purchase rights as discussed in the remainder of this paragraph. The Company estimated the expected useful lives, giving consideration to the vesting and purchase periods, contractual lives, expected employee turnover, and the relationship between the exercise price and the fair market value of the Company's common stock, among other factors. The expected volatility was estimated giving consideration to the expected useful lives of the stock options, the Company's current expected growth rate, implied expected volatility in traded options for the Company's common stock, and recent volatility of the Company's common stock, among other factors. The risk-free rate is the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the relevant expected life. The fair value of stock options was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended

Expected life (in years)............................................... 3.4 3.1 3.4 3.1
Expected volatility.................................................... 65 % 46 % 65 % 47 %
Using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, stock options granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, had weighted average fair values of $11.87 and $14.82 per share, respectively, as compared to weighted average fair values of $2.86 and $2.90 per share during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively.
The fair value of employees' stock purchase rights under the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan") was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for purchases:

The weighted average fair value of the common stock purchase rights granted under the Purchase Plan during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, was $9.74, as compared to a weighted average fair value of $2.23 per share during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS 143"). SFAS 143 addresses the financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. SFAS 143 applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the assets, including lease restoration obligations. SFAS 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of the fair value can be made. The fair value of the liability is added to the carrying amount of the associated asset, and this additional carrying amount is expensed over the life of the asset. The Company adopted SFAS 143 effective January 1, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 143 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit and Disposal Activities
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146 "Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS 146"). SFAS 146 addresses the recognition, measurement and reporting of costs associated with exit and disposal activities (i.e., restructuring activities), including costs related to terminating a contract that is not a capital lease and termination benefits due to employees who are involuntarily terminated under the terms of a one-time benefit arrangement.
SFAS 146 supersedes Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 94-3 "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (Including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)" ("EITF 94-3") and EITF Issue No. 88-10 "Costs Associated with Lease Modification or Termination" ("EITF 88-10"). Accordingly, SFAS 146 prohibits recognition of a liability based solely on an entity's commitment to a plan to exit an activity. SFAS 146 requires that: (i) liabilities associated with exit and disposal activities be measured at fair value and changes in the fair value of the liability at each reporting period be measured using an interest allocation approach; (ii) one-time termination benefits be expensed at the date the entity notifies the employee, unless the employee must provide future service, in which case the benefits are expensed ratably over the future service period; (iii) liabilities to terminate a contract be recorded at fair value when the contract is terminated; (iv) liabilities related to an existing operating lease/contract, unless terminated, be recorded at fair value, less estimated sublease income, and measured when the contract does not have any future economic benefit to the entity (i.e., the entity ceases to utilize the rights conveyed by the contract); and (v) all other costs related to an exit or disposal activity be expensed as incurred.
SFAS 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company adopted SFAS 146 effective January 1, 2003. Therefore, the restructuring activities initiated by the Company in the second quarter of 2003, as discussed further in Note 2 below, will be accounted for in accordance with SFAS 146. The adoption of SFAS 146 will not impact the Company's restructuring obligations recognized in 2002 as these obligations must continue to be accounted for in accordance with EITF 94-3 and EITF 88-10 and other applicable pre-existing guidance.
Accounting for and Disclosure of Guarantees
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" ("Interpretation 45"). Interpretation 45 elaborates on the existing disclosure requirements for most guarantees, including loan guarantees such as standby letters of credit, and provides new disclosure requirements regarding indemnification provisions, including indemnification provisions typically included in a software license arrangement. It also clarifies that at the time a guarantee is issued, the Company must recognize an initial liability for the fair value of the obligations it assumes under the guarantee and must disclose that information in its financial statements. The provisions related to recognizing a liability at inception of the guarantee do not apply to product warranties, indemnification provisions in the Company's software license arrangements, or to guarantees accounted for as derivatives. The initial recognition and measurement provisions apply on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, and the disclosure requirements were effective as of December 31, 2002. The adoption of Interpretation 45 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Overview
Beginning in 2001 and continuing through the first half of 2003, economic conditions in many of the countries in which the Company operates either deteriorated or stabilized at depressed levels. In addition, there appears to have been a disproportionate impact on capital spending by corporations, and more specifically information technology spending. As a result, certain of the Company's key operating metrics, such as total revenue, operating margin and revenue per employee, declined from the Company's historical levels. In response to this decline, the Company initiated a series of steps that it believes will: (i) strengthen the Company's competitive position; (ii) reduce its cost structure, thereby improving its revenue per employee, operating margin and overall operating performance; and (iii) better align its management structure in order to return to sequential quarterly revenue growth. Specifically, the Company took the following actions:
The Company reduced the discretionary portion of its operating costs through various cost control initiatives, including: (i) reducing advertising expenditures, (ii) maintaining the CEO's salary at one dollar per year, (iii) deferring merit increases, (iv) eliminating bonuses (from July 2001 to June 2002) or paying bonuses based on achievement of financial objectives (commencing in July 2002), (v) reducing depreciation, primarily through reduced capital expenditures, and (vi) reducing other discretionary expenditures, such as costs related to outside consultants, travel and recruiting.
In order to further align the Company's operating structure with anticipated revenue levels, the Company initiated a restructuring of its operations and an associated workforce reduction in the third quarter of 2002 (the "2002 Restructuring"), which it completed in December 2002. The 2002 Restructuring consisted primarily of the consolidation of excess facilities, reductions in its workforce and the abandonment of certain assets in connection with the consolidation of excess facilities.
During the first half of 2003, the Company continued to evaluate the economic conditions in the information technology industry, along with the Company's current organizational structure and its expectations regarding revenue levels. Based on this evaluation, in the second quarter of 2003 the Company determined that it would initiate a further restructuring of its operations, including a reorganization of its operating structure (e.g., sales organization, geographic operations, management structure, etc.) (the "2003 Restructuring" and collectively with the 2002 Restructuring, the "Restructuring"). The Company anticipates the 2003 Restructuring will be completed by the end of 2003.
Summary of Restructuring Obligations as of June 30, 2003
The following table summarizes the Company's Restructuring expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2003, and the related Restructuring obligations as of June 30, 2003 (in thousands):

Restructuring obligations, long-term................ $ 77,708
===========
The Company recognized a charge related to the 2002 Restructuring of $205,305,000, which was comprised of: (i) severance and associated employee termination costs of $23,649,000 related to the reduction of the Company's workforce, (ii) lease termination and other costs of $155,701,000 associated with permanently vacating certain facilities, and (iii) non-cash impairment costs of $25,955,000 related to certain long-lived assets that were abandoned in connection with the Company's consolidation of its facilities. The Company settled $24,802,000 of the 2002 Restructuring obligations during 2002.
During the second quarter of 2003, the Company revised its estimates related to the 2002 Restructuring due primarily to: (i) the Company terminating certain leases at more favorable terms than originally anticipated, and (ii) entering into subleases sooner than previously expected and/or at higher sublease rates than originally anticipated. This resulted in a net reversal of $9,972,000 of the 2002 Restructuring expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2003. The Company believes its estimates with respect to the remaining 2002 Restructuring obligations are appropriate as of June 30, 2003.
The 2003 Restructuring charges incurred as of June 30, 2003, consist solely of charges associated with certain facilities that the Company ceased use of as of that date. As discussed further below, the Company will incur additional charges in connection with the 2003 Restructuring during the third and fourth quarters of 2003.
Total Restructuring obligations as of June 30, 2003, primarily relate to costs associated with permanently vacated facilities. These costs are primarily comprised of the remaining lease obligations, net of estimated sublease income, along with costs associated with demising and subleasing the vacated facilities. The obligations in the above table associated with permanently vacating facilities will generally be paid over the remaining lease terms, ending at various dates through March 2022, or over a shorter period as the Company may negotiate with its lessors. The obligations in the above table associated with the Company's workforce reduction will be paid during the second half of 2003.
2003 Restructuring
In the second quarter of 2003, the Company began developing a plan to restructure its operations, including a reorganization of its operating structure (e.g., sales organization, geographic operations, management structure, etc.). The Company anticipates the 2003 Restructuring will be completed by the end of 2003. The 2003 Restructuring charges incurred as of June 30, 2003, consist solely of charges associated with certain facilities that the Company ceased use of as of that date. During the third and fourth quarters of 2003, the Company anticipates that it will: (i) consolidate additional facilities, including ceasing operations in certain geographic locations; (ii) reduce its workforce, including reductions as the result of reorganizing its operating and management structures; and (iii) abandon certain long-lived assets, including leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures, and computer equipment.
The Company will record the costs associated with the 2003 Restructuring as follows: (i) costs associated with the Company's reduction of its workforce and consolidation of its facilities will be recorded based on their respective fair values (i.e., the present value of expected net cash flows associated with these obligations), and (ii) the cost associated with the abandonment of certain long-lived assets will be recorded based on the net carrying value of the assets at the time of the abandonment. The Company is still in the process of finalizing its plans related to the 2003 Restructuring and, accordingly, the total expenses and cash outlays are not currently estimable.
As part of the 2003 Restructuring, the Company intends to reduce its workforce by approximately 10%. This workforce reduction will affect substantially all of the Company's organizations and geographical regions. Expenses associated with the workforce reduction will be comprised primarily of severance, COBRA benefits, payroll taxes and other associated employment termination costs. The Company expects that these costs will be expensed during the third quarter of 2003.
As a result of the anticipated workforce reduction, certain of the Company's facilities are projected to be under-utilized. Accordingly, the Company intends to improve the utilization of its facilities by consolidating its remaining workforce into certain existing facilities and ceasing to utilize the then vacated facilities. The Company expects that the portion of the 2003 Restructuring charge related to facilities consolidation will be expensed during the second half of 2003 as the Company ceases to utilize the facilities. The costs associated with the Company's facilities consolidation will be recorded based on the present value of the sum of the expected lease termination costs and/or costs associated with satisfying remaining lease commitments, less estimated sublease income.
In accordance with SFAS 146, in periods subsequent to the initial recording of the 2003 Restructuring obligations, the Company will recognize accretion expense due solely to the passage of time. The Company will record this accretion as an additional Restructuring-related expense and as an increase in the carrying amount of the 2003 Restructuring obligations. Additionally, the Company will expense certain other costs, such as moving costs, when incurred.
As part of the 2003 Restructuring, certain leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures, and computer equipment are expected to be abandoned in the second half of 2003. The Company expects the charge related to asset impairments will be expensed in the second half of 2003.
Legal Proceedings
On September 23, 2002, Teachers' Retirement System of Louisiana, a Louisiana public trust fund, filed a derivative suit against the Company's Board of Directors, as well as against the Company as a nominal defendant, in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Mateo. The derivative suit alleges, among other things, that members of the Company's Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties by authorizing excessive compensation for the Company's Chairman and CEO, Thomas M. Siebel. The derivative plaintiffs seek compensatory and other damages, rescission of certain stock options and other relief. The suit alleges that the Company incorrectly accounted for stock options that were alleged to be granted below fair market value. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to this suit, as the stock options in question were granted at fair market value. In addition, the stock options in question were cancelled in January 2003 as a result of actions initiated by Mr. Siebel in June 2002, prior to the filing of this suit by the Teachers' Retirement System of Louisiana. The Company cannot currently determine the ultimate outcome of this litigation and its possible impact on the Company.
On May 6, 2003, the Securities & Exchange Commission ("SEC") contacted the Company and indicated that a May 1, 2003 article on CBS MarketWatch had raised questions regarding the Company's compliance with Regulation FD. On May 9, 2003, the Company announced that, in response to the inquiry from the SEC, the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors is conducting an internal review of the circumstances involving recent statements that were reported by CBS MarketWatch to have been made by Company executives. The Audit Committee has engaged counsel in connection with such review. Upon completion of that review, the Company intends to take required and appropriate actions, if any, but the Company has not concluded that any violation has occurred. The Company is cooperating with the SEC inquiry.
In addition, the Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, which arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe that the outcome of any pending legal matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, although results of operations or cash flows could be affected in a particular period.
Income and Payroll Taxes
The Company's U.S. Federal income tax returns for 1998, 1999 and 2000 are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"). The Company believes it has made adequate provision in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for any adjustments the IRS has or may propose with respect to the U.S. Federal income tax returns. In addition, certain of the Company's payroll tax returns, both in the U.S. and internationally, are currently under examination by the applicable taxing authority. The Company believes it has made adequate provision in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for any adjustments the taxing authorities may propose with respect to its international payroll tax returns. The Company has not made any provision for potential assessments by the IRS related to its U.S. payroll tax returns in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as the amount, if any, which the Company may have to pay is not currently estimable.
Indemnifications
The Company sells software licenses and services to its customers under contracts which the Company refers to as Software License and Service Agreements (each an "SLSA"). Each SLSA contains the relevant terms of the contractual arrangement with the customer, and generally includes certain provisions for indemnifying the customer against losses, expenses, and liabilities from damages that may be awarded against the customer in the event the Company's software is found to infringe upon a patent, copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right of a third party. The SLSA generally limits the scope of and remedies for such indemnification obligations in a variety of industry-standard respects, including but not limited to certain time- and geography-based scope limitations and a right to replace an infringing product.
The Company believes its internal development processes and other policies and practices limit its exposure related to the indemnification provisions of the SLSA. In addition, the Company requires its employees to sign a proprietary information and inventions agreement, which assigns the rights to its employees' development work to the Company. To date, the Company has not had to reimburse any of its customers for any losses related to these indemnification provisions and no material claims are outstanding as of June 30, 2003. For several reasons, including the lack of prior indemnification claims and the lack of a monetary liability limit for certain infringement cases under the SLSA, the Company cannot determine the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, related to such indemnification provisions.
Lease Obligations
As of June 30, 2003, the Company leased facilities and certain equipment under non-cancelable operating leases expiring between 2003 and 2022. The Company also leases certain assets, primarily computer equipment, under capital leases expiring between 2004 and 2005. Future minimum lease payments under both operating and capital leases as of June 30, 2003, are as follows (in thousands):

The lease commitments in the above table designated as "Leases in the Restructuring" include only the non-cancelable portion of lease commitments reflected in Restructuring-related expenses through June 30, 2003. Accordingly, these lease commitments have not been reduced by estimated sublease income. Please refer to Note 2 for a further discussion of the Company's Restructuring obligations.
In May 2003, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the Siebel Systems, Inc. 2003 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "2003 Purchase Plan"). The 2003 Purchase Plan was approved by stockholders on June 11, 2003. There are 15,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock reserved for issuance under the 2003 Purchase Plan. As of June 30, 2003, no shares of the Company's Common Stock had been issued under the 2003 Purchase Plan. The 2003 Purchase Plan replaced the Company's 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("1996 Purchase Plan"), which was terminated on June 30, 2003, as all shares of common stock available for issuance under the 1996 Purchase Plan were issued as of June 30, 2003.
The 2003 Purchase Plan permits eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company's common stock through payroll deductions of up to 15% of such employees' total compensation during the offering period. The purchase price per share at which shares of the Company's common stock may be purchased under the 2003 Purchase Plan is the lower of 85% of: (i) the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock on the first day of the offering or (ii) the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock on the last day of the offering. The maximum length for an offering period under the 2003 Purchase Plan is 27 months. Currently, each offering period, other than the first offering period, is six months long and shares are purchased on the last day of each offering period. The first offering period is seven months long (July 1, 2003 to January 31, 2004).
Stockholder Rights Plan
On January 23, 2003, the Company's Board of Directors approved the adoption of a Stockholder Rights Plan (the "Rights Plan") and the authorization of 100,000 shares of Series A2 junior participating preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Junior Preferred Stock"). The Rights Plan is intended as a means to guard against abusive takeover tactics and to provide for fair and equal treatment for all stockholders in the event that an unsolicited attempt is made to acquire the Company. Accordingly, the Rights Plan will have certain anti-takeover effects.
Under the terms of the Rights Plan, stockholders of record on February 13, 2003, received a dividend distribution of one preferred share purchase right (a "Right") for each outstanding share of the Company's common stock. The Rights trade with the Company's common stock and no separate Right certificates will be distributed until such time as the Rights become exercisable as described below. Each Right entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one ten-thousandth of a share of Junior Preferred Stock at a price of $70.00 per one ten-thousandth of a share (the "Purchase Price"), subject to adjustment. Each one ten-thousandth of a share of Junior Preferred Stock is designed to be the economic equivalent of one share of the Company's common stock. However, until a Right is exercised, the holder of the Right will have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, including without limitation, the right to vote or receive dividends.
The Rights are not exercisable until the earlier to occur of (i) the date of a public announcement that a person, entity or group of affiliated or associated persons have acquired beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the Company's outstanding common stock (an "Acquiring Person") except that Thomas M. Siebel, the Company's Chairman and CEO, and his affiliates may have greater beneficial ownership without becoming an "Acquiring Person"; or (ii) ten business days (or such later date as may be determined by action of the Board of Directors prior to such time as any person or entity becomes an Acquiring Person) following the commencement of, or announcement of an intention to commence, a tender offer or exchange offer, the consummation of which would result in any person or entity becoming an Acquiring Person (the earlier of such dates being called the "Distribution Date"). The Rights will expire on February 12, 2013 (the "Final Expiration Date"), unless the Rights are earlier redeemed or exchanged by the Company. The exercise of Rights for shares of Junior Preferred Stock is at all times subject to the availability of a sufficient number of shares of authorized but unissued Junior Preferred Stock.
In the event that any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person, each holder of a Right, other than Rights beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person and its associates and affiliates (which will thereafter be void), will for a 60-day period have the right to receive upon exercise that number of shares of common stock having a market value of two times the exercise price of the Right. If such number of shares is not and cannot be authorized, the Company may issue Junior Preferred Stock, cash, property, stock or a combination thereof in exchange for the Rights.
At any time prior to the earliest of (i) such time as a person has become an Acquiring Person; or (ii) the Final Expiration Date, the Board of Directors of the Company may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.001 per Right (the "Redemption Price"). Following the expiration of these periods, the Rights become non-redeemable. Immediately upon any redemption of the Rights, the ability to exercise the Rights will terminate and the holders of Rights will be entitled to receive only the Redemption Price. The terms of the Rights may be amended by the Board of Directors of the Company without the consent of the holders of the Rights, except that from and after such time as the Rights are distributed no such amendment may adversely affect the interest of the holders of the Rights, excluding the interests of an Acquiring Person.
The Rights will cause substantial dilution to a person or group that attempts to acquire the Company on terms not approved by the Company's Board of Directors. The Company does not expect the Rights to interfere with any merger or other business combination approved by the Board of Directors, as the Rights may be amended to permit such acquisition or redeemed by the Company at $0.001 per Right prior to the earliest of (i) the time that a person or group has acquired beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the Common Shares; or (ii) the Final Expiration Date.
Until the Rights become exercisable, the Rights will have no dilutive impact on the Company's earnings per share data. The Rights are protected by customary anti-dilution provisions.
Series A2 Junior Participating Preferred Stock
The Junior Preferred Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Rights will not be redeemable. In the event of liquidation, the holders of the Junior Preferred Stock would be entitled to a minimum preferential liquidation payment of $10,000 per share, but would be entitled to receive an aggregate payment equal to 10,000 times the payment made per share of common stock. Each share of Junior Preferred Stock will have 10,000 votes, voting together with the Company's common stock. If issued, the Junior Preferred Stock will also be entitled to preferential dividends, when and if declared by the Board of Directors. Finally, in the event of any merger, consolidation or other transaction in which shares of the Company's common stock are exchanged, each share of Junior Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive 10,000 times the amount of consideration received per share of common stock. The Junior Preferred Stock would rank junior to any other series of the Company's preferred stock.
In June 2002, the Company's CEO notified the Board of Directors of his intent to cancel 25,950,000 shares subject to outstanding stock options in order to reduce net dilution from stock options to the Company's stockholders. On December 11, 2002, the Company's Compensation and Audit Committees of the Board of Directors approved the cancellation of these stock options. In January 2003, the 25,950,000 stock options were cancelled and they are therefore no longer outstanding. Accordingly, the only stock options granted to the Company's CEO that remain in effect were granted in January 1998 or earlier.
The stock options cancelled had a weighted average exercise price of $34.63, with exercise prices ranging from $4.91 to $59.81 per share, and represented all stock options granted to the Company's CEO subsequent to October 29, 1998. The stock options cancelled had a fair value of $56,100,000 at the time of cancellation (stock options that were "in-the-money" at the time of cancellation represented $30,150,000, or 54%, of the total fair value at cancellation), as determined by the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. In determining the fair value of these stock options, the Company used the following weighted-average assumptions: (i) an expected remaining life of six years; (ii) a volatility of 50% during the expected life; (iii) a risk-free interest rate of 3.4%; and (iv) no dividends. The approach used to develop these weighted-average assumptions is the same as discussed in Note 1 under the Section "Stock-Based Compensation." Differences between average useful life and volatility assumptions for these stock options, as compared to assumptions disclosed elsewhere herein, primarily relate to differences in the characteristics of the stock options being valued.
The Company provided no compensation in exchange for the cancellation of its CEO's stock options, and no additional stock options will be granted to him for a period of at least six months following the cancellation, nor will he receive any salary, other than the one dollar per year currently being paid or bonus for a period of at least six months following the cancellation.
Acquisitions
During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company acquired certain assets of BoldFish, Inc. ("BoldFish"), a developer of permission-based outbound messaging solutions, for an initial payment of $1,000,000, and up to an additional $500,000 by March 2004 upon the achievement of designated performance and revenue based milestones. The purchase price was allocated to tangible net assets totaling $117,000 (current assets of $73,000 and property and equipment of $44,000) and identifiable intangible assets (acquired technology) valued at $376,000. The acquired technology is currently being amortized over its estimated useful life of three years using the straight-line method. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible net assets acquired of $507,000 was recorded as goodwill. This amount is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The Company has included the operating results of BoldFish in its consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Pro forma information giving effect to this acquisition has not been presented since the pro forma information would not differ materially from the historical results of the Company.
Goodwill
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill during the six months ended June 30, 2003, were as follows:
Balance as of December 31, 2002........... $ 80,949
Earnout payments to the stockholders of
acquired companies..................... 500
Purchase of certain assets of BoldFish.... 507
Foreign currency fluctuation.............. 12
------------
Balance as of June 30, 2003............... $ 81,968
============
As required by SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"), the Company does not amortize its goodwill balances, but instead tests its goodwill for impairment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142 at least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of certain events.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of the following (in thousands):

Identifiable intangibles (acquired technology) are currently amortized over three years using the straight-line method. Based on identified intangible assets recorded as of June 30, 2003, and assuming no subsequent impairment of the underlying assets, the annual amortization expense is expected to be as follows:

========== ========= =========== =========
Shares used in the diluted net income per share computation in the above table include the dilutive impact of the Company's stock options. The impact of the Company's stock options on shares used for the diluted earnings per share computation is calculated based on the average share price of the Company's common stock for each period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the proceeds that would be hypothetically received from the exercise of all stock options with exercise prices below the average share price of the Company's common stock are assumed to be used to repurchase shares of the Company's common stock. The dilutive impact of the Company's stock options was calculated using an average price of the Company's common stock of $21.50 and $27.25 per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, and an average price of the Company's common stock of $9.35 and $8.97 per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively.
The Company excludes all potentially dilutive securities from its diluted net income per share computation when their effect would be anti-dilutive. The following common stock equivalents were excluded from the earnings per share computation, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive (in thousands):

========== ========= =========== =========
Under the treasury stock method, stock options with exercise prices exceeding the average fair value of the Company's common stock during the applicable period are excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation. These stock options had weighted average exercise prices of $47.51 and $52.94 per share during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, compared to weighted average exercise prices of $22.15 and $22.06 per share during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively.
The Company and its subsidiaries are principally engaged in the design, development, marketing and support of Siebel eBusiness Applications, its family of industry-specific eBusiness software applications. Substantially all revenues result from the license of the Company's software products and related professional services and customer support (maintenance) services. The Company's chief operating decision maker reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues by geographic region for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, the Company considers itself to be in a single industry segment, specifically the license, implementation and support of its software. The Company does not prepare reports for, or measure the performance of, its individual software applications and, accordingly, the Company has not presented revenues or any other related financial information by individual software product.
International software license revenues for three and six months ended June 30, 2002, were $58,036,000 and $152,486,000, respectively, representing 34% and 37% of software license revenues, respectively. International software license revenues for three and six months ended June 30, 2003, were $49,823,000 and $107,177,000, respectively, representing 45% and 48% of software license revenues, respectively. Total international revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, were $138,928,000 and $309,219,000, respectively, representing 34% and 35% of total revenues, respectively. Total international revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, were $133,783,000 and $272,974,000, respectively, representing 40% and 41% of total revenues, respectively. International software license revenues and total revenues are primarily derived from countries in Europe for all periods presented.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, no individual customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total revenues.

The Company plans to continue its efforts to develop software applications that meet its customers' and potential customers' changing business needs and to further reduce the total cost of ownership of its software applications through its newest product, Universal Application Network, or UAN. The Company regularly faces competition from new entrants to its product market. The Company will continue to take various steps, including the introduction of new products, reducing prices or other incentives, at such times as it deems appropriate, in order to further increase the acceptance of its products.
Overview of the Results for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2003
To understand the Company's operating results during the first half of 2003, the Company believes an understanding of the environment in which the Company operated is required. Specifically, the Company believes its operating results during the first half of 2003 were impacted by several factors, including macro-economic conditions, economic conditions in the information technology industry and uncertainties within the application software industry. In addition, the Company is committed to improving its own performance, even in the current difficult macro- and micro-economic environment. As discussed further below, the Company has initiated a further restructuring of its operations that it believes will: (i) strengthen its competitive position; (ii) reduce its cost structure thereby improving its revenue per employee, operating margin and overall operating performance; and (iii) better align its management and organizational structure in order to return to sequential quarterly revenue growth.
During the first half of 2003, the Company believes the primary factor impacting its operating performance was the weak global economic conditions. Simply stated, the Company's biggest challenge was the economy. Throughout 2001 and continuing into the first half 2003, economic conditions in many of the countries in which the Company operates either deteriorated or stabilized at depressed levels. For instance, during the first half of 2003 corporate and consumer confidence in the economy has remained very cautious; unemployment in the United States reached a nine year high; and many of the leading economic indicators declined during this period. Further, geopolitical uncertainties, including the on-going hostilities involving the United States, have exacerbated corporations' general cautiousness in setting their capital spending budgets.
In addition, the Company believes that these weak economic conditions have disproportionately impacted the information technology industry. Many corporations have intensified their efforts to identify and realize potential cost savings in these difficult economic circumstances and, accordingly, capital spending by corporations, and more specifically information technology spending, continues to decline or be delayed. In addition, many corporations made capital expenditures in previous years in anticipation of future growth that did not materialize, thereby impacting their current capital expenditures.
The application software segment of the information technology industry was also affected by the uncertainty created by recently announced mergers and takeover attempts within this segment. Specifically, several of the Company's direct and indirect competitors are in the process of merger negotiations or taking steps to avoid takeover attempts.
The Company's operations and financial performance were directly and negatively impacted by the above factors. Specifically, many of the Company's customers and potential customers have: (i) delayed the initiation of the purchasing process; (ii) increased the evaluation time to complete a software purchase; (iii) reduced their capital expenditure budgets, thereby restricting their software procurement to well-defined current needs; and/or (iv) lengthened the purchasing cycle. As a result of these and other factors, both the number of software license revenue transactions and average transaction size continued to be negatively impacted during the first half of 2003, with individual transactions generating license revenues greater than or equal to $5 million affected to the greatest extent.
The Company has taken and is in the process of taking additional steps to improve its operating performance and execution, even in the current difficult economic climate. Despite the difficult economic climate, the Company did not take any extraordinary actions, such as one time contingent discounts related to its software licenses. The following are the actions that the Company has taken in order to better enable it to grow its revenues and operating margins:
The Company has continued to reduce the discretionary portion of its operating costs through the implementation of various new cost control initiatives, including: (i) tying bonuses more closely to achievement of financial objectives, (ii) reducing depreciation, primarily through reduced capital expenditures, and (iii) further reducing other discretionary expenditures, such as costs related to outside consultants, travel and recruiting.
The Company completed a restructuring of its operations and an associated workforce reduction in the fourth quarter of 2002 (the "2002 Restructuring"). Primarily as the result of the 2002 Restructuring, the Company reduced total quarterly costs and expenses by approximately $40 million on year-over-year basis during the quarter ended June 30, 2003.
As a result of an evaluation of the current economic conditions in the information technology industry, along with the Company's current organizational structure and its expectations regarding revenue levels, in the second quarter of 2003 the Company determined that it would initiate a further restructuring of its operations, including a reorganization of its operating structure (e.g., sales organization, geographic operations, management structure, etc.) (the "2003 Restructuring" and collectively with the 2002 Restructuring, the "Restructuring"). The Company anticipates the 2003 Restructuring will be completed by the end of 2003. Please refer to "Restructuring-Related Expenses" below for a further discussion of the 2003 Restructuring.
In addition, the Company achieved several milestones in the first half of 2003 that it believes will better enable the Company to grow its business when information technology spending returns to normalized levels, including:
Industry analysts continued to acknowledge the Company's product leadership. For example, the Gartner Group, a prominent information technology market research firm, designated Siebel Systems as "leader"* in ten of its copyrighted Magic Quadrants** in 2003, up from seven in 2002. In nine of the ten categories, Gartner cited Siebel Systems as the only vendor that meets the leadership criteria for those CRM categories. There were a total of 18 Gartner Magic Quadrants covering CRM Suites, Marketing, Sales and Service.
The Company believes that the Gartner Magic Quadrants provide an objective and rigorous evaluation of technology suppliers' global capabilities, breadth and depth of functionality, proven scalability, technology innovation, company viability and vision, and successful installed customer base. These quadrants assess a vendors' overall success in selling, deploying, supporting, and extending their applications.

The Company believes it was able to maintain its market share in the majority of the product categories in which it operates and continues as the technology leader in the CRM market. In addition, information technology surveys indicate CRM software is among the top spending priorities of corporations.
The Company's customer satisfaction levels continued at already high levels, with an overall customer loyalty rating of 97%, based on a December 31, 2002 survey.
The Company continued its focus on customer satisfaction through further development efforts of UAN, the Company's latest product release. The Company and leading systems integrators and software vendors continue to work together to further develop UAN in order to address one of the primary challenges currently facing the software applications industry: driving down the cost of application ownership and maintenance.
In addition to the above accomplishments, the Company was able to achieve improvement in several of its key financial metrics. Specifically, despite the difficult economic challenges faced during the first half of 2003, the Company was able to operate a cash-positive, profitable business and achieved the following financial results:
Total costs and expenses decreased by $40.1 million, or 11%, from $368.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002, to $328.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003, and decreased by $91.6 million, or 12%, from $755.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002, to $664.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease in each of these periods was primarily due to cost savings from the 2002 Restructuring and its cost control initiatives.
Cash and short-term investments increased by $140.2 million, or 6%, from $2,161.6 million as of December 31, 2002, to $2,301.8 million as of June 30, 2003, representing approximately 71% and 75% of total assets, respectively. During the periods of weak global economic conditions from 2001 to 2003, the Company increased cash and short-term investments by $1,149.2 million, or 100%, primarily through cash flows from operations.
Days sales outstanding was 63 days as of December 31, 2002, as compared to 58 days as of June 30, 2003.
Cash flows from operations were $278.8 million and $115.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively.
Working capital increased from $1,940.3 million as of December 31, 2002, to $2,020.5 million as of June 30, 2003.
Deferred revenue, which consists primarily of deferred maintenance revenue, increased by 7%, from $270.6 million as of December 31, 2002, to $289.4 million as June 30, 2003.
Stockholders' equity increased from $1,957.5 million as of December 31, 2002, to $2,032.6 million as of June 30, 2003.
The Company intends to improve these financial metrics and to return its software license and total revenues to sequential quarterly growth. The Company has set the following objectives that will guide management's decisions throughout the remainder of 2003:
The Company will continue to follow high professional standards in measuring and reporting its performance against the above objectives. Specifically, the Company believes that its accounting policies are prudent and provide a clear view of its financial performance. The Company utilizes its internal audit function to help ensure that it follows these accounting policies and maintains its internal controls. The Company has formed an Internal Controls Committee, comprised primarily of senior financial and legal personnel, to help ensure its internal controls over financial reporting are complete, accurate and appropriately documented. The Company has formed a Disclosure Committee, comprised primarily of senior financial and legal personnel, to help ensure the completeness and accuracy of the Company's financial results and disclosures. In addition, prior to the release of the Company's financial results, key members of the Company's management review the Company's annual and quarterly results and key accounting policies and estimates with its Audit Committee, which is comprised of independent members of the Company's Board of Directors.
Discussion of the Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 and 2003
Revenues
The following table sets forth the Company's revenues, both in absolute dollars and expressed as a percentage of total revenues, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003 (in thousands, except percentages):
Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,

======== ===== ======== ====== ======== ===== ======== =====
Software. Software license revenues decreased by 35% from $170.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002, to $109.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003, and decreased by 47% from $416.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, to $222.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Software license revenues as a percentage of total revenues decreased from 42% and 47% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, to 33% during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.
The Company markets its products through its direct sales force and to a limited extent through distributors, primarily in Europe, Asia Pacific, Japan and Latin America. International software license revenues accounted for 34% and 37% of software license revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, as compared to 45% and 48% of software license revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. The Company expects international software license revenues will continue to account for a significant portion of its overall software license revenues in the foreseeable future.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, the Company's customers' purchasing decisions were impacted by, among many other factors: (i) the overall weakness of the global economy, (ii) continued reductions in corporate capital expenditures, (iii) geopolitical uncertainties, and (iv) uncertainties in the application software industry as a result of speculation of further consolidation within the industry. Accordingly, many of the Company's customers and potential customers have: (i) delayed the initiation of the purchasing process, (ii) increased the evaluation time to complete a software purchase, due in part to increased competition and the uncertainty in the application software industry, and/or (iii) reduced their capital expenditure budgets, thereby restricting their software procurement to well-defined current needs.
As a result of these and other factors, both the number of software license revenue transactions and average transaction size were negatively impacted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, with individual transactions generating software license revenues greater than or equal to $5 million affected to the greatest extent. Specifically, the number of software license transactions decreased from 460 and 1,066 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, to 319 and 716 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. The Company's average transaction size decreased from $370,000 and $390,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, to $344,000 and $310,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. In addition, the number of transactions generating software license revenues greater than or equal to $5 million decreased from three and 15 transactions during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, to two and four transactions during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. Consequently, the Company's software license revenues decreased by 35% and 47% from the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, to the three and six months ended June 30, 2003. The decline in software license revenues as a percentage of total revenues was primarily due to the factors described above impacting software license revenues to a greater extent than professional services, maintenance and other revenues.
The Company and its management are committed to improving the performance of the Company's sales operations and returning its software license revenues to positive sequential quarterly growth. Although the Company's software license revenues decreased on a year-over-year basis, the Company took several steps in the latter part of 2002 and is in the process of taking additional steps in 2003 that it believes will better position it for future growth. Specifically, the Company has taken the following steps:
The Company reorganized its sales management in the fourth quarter of 2002, including the hiring of Richard P. Chiarello as Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales, in order to improve the sales organization's performance.
As discussed previously, the Company initiated a restructuring of its operations in the second quarter of 2003 (the "2003 Restructuring" and collectively with the 2002 Restructuring, the "Restructuring"), including a reorganization of its operating structure (e.g., sales organization, geographic operations, management structure, etc.). The Company believes the 2003 Restructuring and the resulting new organizational structure will improve cross-unit collaboration, better align its organizational structure with the Company's go-to-market strategy, and empower local managers with increased authority and accountability. The Company believes that the new organizational structure will allow greater responsiveness to customers, faster decision making and an improved focus of the Company's resources on key growth areas.
The Company continued to increase its customer base with 59% and 57% of software license revenues coming from new customer projects during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003. The Company measures revenues from new customer projects based on software license transactions from new customers, new divisions of existing customers and/or new projects at existing customers. The Company believes that the continued growth of its customer base will provide a competitive advantage through increased future sales opportunities when corporate capital expenditures return to normalized levels.
Many smaller software providers that compete with the Company fell into financial difficulties during 2002 and the first half of 2003 as a result of the reluctance of customers to procure their software needs from a vendor lacking either a mature solution or secure financial outlook. Accordingly, the Company believes that it is well positioned to offer the customers and potential customers of these vendors the software solution they need.
The Company anticipates that its software license revenues will return to positive growth when the current geopolitical tensions ease and the overall economic conditions strengthen and, more specifically, when the overall demand for information technology increases. The Company does not expect a significant improvement in information technology spending in the immediate future and, accordingly, during the third quarter of 2003 the Company expects software license revenues, both in terms of absolute dollars and as a percentage of total revenues, to remain comparable to levels in the second quarter of 2003.
The Company's future software license revenues and operating performance may be negatively impacted by: (i) the uncertainty in the application software industry and resulting reductions in capital expenditures, (ii) geopolitical uncertainties, including continued hostilities involving the United States, (iii) additional terrorist attacks, (iv) a lack of confidence in corporate governance and accounting practices, (v) the diversity in global economic conditions, (vi) continued intense competition, (vii) corporate and consumer confidence in the economy, (viii) operational execution related to and the resulting uncertainty created by the 2003 Restructuring, and (ix) other factors described under "Risk Factors" below.
Professional Services, Maintenance and Other. Professional services, maintenance and other revenues are primarily comprised of professional services (i.e., implementation services and training) and maintenance (i.e., technical support and product updates). Professional services are typically provided over a period of three to six months subsequent to the signing of a software license arrangement and depend in large part on the Company's software license revenues. The Company's maintenance revenues depend on both the Company's software license revenues and renewals of maintenance agreements by the Company's existing customer base. Professional services, maintenance and other revenues decreased by 5% from $235.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002, to $223.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003, and also decreased by 5% from $467.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, to $444.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. As a percentage of total revenues, professional services, maintenance and other revenues were 58% and 53% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, as compared to 67% during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.
The decrease in the absolute dollar amount of professional services, maintenance and other revenues was due to a decline in revenues derived from the Company's implementation and training services, partially offset by an increase in the installed base of customers receiving maintenance. The Company's maintenance revenues have continued to increase on a year-over-year basis, primarily due to the renewal of customer maintenance agreements and the signing of maintenance agreements at the time of a new software license. However, due primarily to weak economic conditions, the Company's efforts to renew existing customers' maintenance agreements have become more challenging. Specifically, several of the Company's customers have reduced the size of their employee base, thereby impacting the number of users of the Company's software.
While maintenance revenues have increased on a year-over-year basis, professional services revenues decreased in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2002. Because the Company's professional services revenues generally lag software license revenues by three to six months, the Company's implementation and training services are largely dependent on the amount of software license revenues generated in the preceding period. The deteriorating economic conditions and resulting decline in software license revenues throughout 2002 and the first half of 2003 have negatively impacted professional services revenues.
Professional services, maintenance and other revenues increased as a percentage of total revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, due primarily to growth in the number of customers receiving maintenance, coupled with a comparatively sharper decrease in the Company's software license revenues. The Company expects that professional services, maintenance and other revenues will return to positive growth soon after the Company's software license revenues return to positive growth. The Company currently anticipates that quarterly professional services, maintenance and other revenues for the third quarter of 2003, both in terms of absolute dollars and as a percentage of total revenues, will remain comparable to the levels in the second quarter of 2003.
Cost of Revenues
The following table sets forth the Company's cost of revenues, both in absolute dollars and expressed as a percentage of total revenues, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003 (in thousands, except percentages):
Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
-------------------------------------- ------------------------------------
2002 2003 2002 2003
------------------ ------------------- ----------------- ------------------
Cost of revenues:
Software.......................................... $ 5,282 1.3 % $ 4,268 1.3 % $ 10,577 1.2 % $ 8,989 1.3 %
Professional services, maintenance and other...... 125,061 30.8 126,141 37.8 256,194 29.0 251,653 37.8
-------- ----- -------- ------ -------- ----- -------- -----
Total cost of revenues........................ $130,343 32.1 % $130,409 39.1 % $266,771 30.2 % $260,642 39.1 %
======== ===== ======== ====== ======== ===== ======== =====
Total cost of revenues was $130.3 million and $266.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, as compared to $130.4 million and $260.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. As a percentage of total revenues, total cost of revenues was 32% and 30% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, as compared to 39% during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2003. Total cost of revenues increased as a percentage of total revenues during the 2003 periods compared to the 2002 periods, primarily due to the Company deriving a higher percentage of its total revenues from professional services, maintenance and other revenues, which are at lower margins than software license revenues.
The following is a discussion of the year-over-year changes within the individual components of cost of revenues:
Software. Cost of software license revenues includes amortization of acquired technology; third-party software royalties; and product packaging, production and documentation. All costs incurred in the research and development of software products and enhancements to existing products have been expensed as incurred. Cost of software license revenues was $5.3 million and $10.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, compared to $4.3 million and $9.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. As a percentage of software license revenues, cost of software license revenues was 3% during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, compared to 4% during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. Cost of software license revenues decreased in terms of absolute dollars primarily due to the decrease in software license revenues. As a percentage of software license revenues, these costs increased in the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, primarily due to a significant portion of these costs relating to amortization of acquired technology, which is relatively fixed in nature, and certain royalty arrangements which are fixed in nature (i.e., royalty rates that are time based and therefore do not vary with software license revenues). During the third quarter of 2003, cost of software license revenues as a percentage of software license revenues is expected to remain comparable to the percentage incurred during the second quarter of 2003.
Professional Services, Maintenance and Other. Cost of professional services, maintenance and other revenues consists primarily of personnel, facilities and systems costs incurred to provide training, consulting and other global services. Cost of professional services, maintenance and other revenues was $125.1 million and $256.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, compared to $126.1 million and $251.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. These costs were approximately 53% and 55% of professional services, maintenance and other revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, compared to 56% and 57% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively.
Cost of professional services, maintenance and other revenues in terms of absolute dollars were comparable during the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003. These costs decreased in terms of the absolute dollar amount from the six months ende
