ONLINE RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     Online Resources Corporation (the “Company”) provides outsourced, web- and phone-based financial technology services to financial institution, biller, card issuer and creditor clients and their millions of consumer end-users. End-users may access and view their accounts online and perform various self-service functions. They may also make electronic bill payments and funds transfers, utilizing the Company’s unique, real-time debit architecture, ACH and other payment methods. The Company’s value-added relationship management services reinforce a favorable user experience and drive a profitable and competitive online channel for its clients. Further, the Company provides professional services, including software solutions, which enable various deployment options, a broad range of customization and other value-added services. The Company currently operates in two business segments — Banking and eCommerce.
   INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
     The accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements include all adjustments necessary (which are of a normal and recurring nature) for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. These condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 10, 2010. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year. Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. The Company has evaluated all subsequent events through May 6, 2010, the date the financial statements were issued.
   NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
     In February of 2010, the FASB amended its guidance for disclosing subsequent events. The revised guidance removes the requirement of disclosing the date through which subsequent events are evaluated and requires evaluation of subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. Adoption of this guidance in the first quarter of 2010 did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     In January of 2010, the FASB improved its disclosures for fair value measurements, requiring separate disclosures of transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements along with the reason for the transfer. The new guidance also requires separately presenting the reconciliation for Level 3 fair value measurements purchases, sales, issuances and settlements and clarifies the disclosure regarding the level of disaggregation and input and valuation techniques. The guidance related to the Level 3 reconciliation will be effective January 1, 2011. The remaining guidance was adopted during the first quarter of 2010. Adoption of this guidance in the first quarter of 2010 did not materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements and financial disclosures.
     In October 2009, the FASB changed its guidance for the accounting of certain revenue arrangements that include software elements. This authoritative guidance amends the scope of pre-existing software revenue guidance by removing from the guidance non-software components of tangible products and certain software components of tangible products. The Company has adopted this authoritative guidance prospectively in the first quarter of 2010. The implementation currently has no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. This guidance will be assessed on an ongoing basis to determine if any new contracts are subject to these new rules.
     In October 2009, the FASB changed its guidance for the accounting of multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements with customers. Current GAAP requires a vendor to use vendor-specific objective evidence or third-party evidence of selling price to separate deliverables in a multiple-deliverable arrangement. Multiple-deliverable arrangements will be separated in more circumstances with the updated guidance. The change in guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each deliverable will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence if available, third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific nor third-party evidence is available. The best estimate to use in determining a selling price is the price as if the item were sold on a stand alone basis. Changes also include eliminating the residual method of allocation and requiring that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates discounts in the arrangement proportionally to each deliverable based on each selling price. These changes become effective, prospectively, for the Company on January 1, 2011 and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not determined the impact, if any, implementation of this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

     In April 2009, the FASB issued guidance for determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. Additionally, entities are required to disclose in interim and annual periods the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This guidance became effective for the Company and was adopted on July 1, 2009. As the requirements under this guidance are consistent with our current practice, adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or financial disclosures.
2. SENIOR SECURED NOTES
     The Company has an agreement with Bank of America which finances its senior secured notes (“2007 Notes”). The agreement also provides a $15 million revolver (“Revolver”) under which the Company can secure up to $5 million in letters of credit. Currently, there are no amounts outstanding under the Revolver, but available credit under the Revolver has been reduced by approximately $1.6 million as a result of letters of credit the bank has issued. The Company has made principal payments of $4.0 million on the 2007 Notes in the three months ended March 31, 2010, reducing the outstanding principal from $48.8 million to $44.8 million. The Company will make periodic principal payments until the 2007 Notes are due in 2012 as noted in the table below.
     The interest rate on both the Revolver and the 2007 Notes is the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 225 to 275 basis points based upon the ratio of the Company’s funded indebtedness to its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA,” as defined in the 2007 Notes), and it is payable monthly. During the first three months of 2010, the margin decreased from 250 to 225 basis points. The average interest rate was 2.71%. The 2007 Notes and the Revolver are secured by the assets of the Company.
     Maturities of long-term debt for each of the next 23 months are as follows (in thousands):
         
    Maturing  
Year   Amounts  
2010 (April 1, 2010-December 31, 2010)
  $ 6,000  
2011
  $ 29,188  
2012
  $ 9,562  
3. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
   Theoretical Swap Derivative
     The Company bifurcated the fair market value of the embedded derivative associated with the Series A-1 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A-1 Preferred Stock”) issued in conjunction with the Princeton eCom acquisition on July 3, 2006 as required by GAAP. The Company determined that the embedded derivative is defined as the right to receive a fixed rate of return on the accrued, but unpaid dividends and the variable negotiated rate, which creates a theoretical swap between the fixed rate of return on the accrued, but unpaid dividends and the variable rate actually accrued on the unpaid dividends. This embedded derivative is marked to market at the end of each reporting period through earnings and an adjustment to other assets as required by the Derivative and Hedging Topic. There is no active market quote available for the fair value of the embedded derivative. Thus, management measures fair value of the derivative by estimating future cash flows related to the asset using a forecasted iMoney Net First Tier rate based on the one-month LIBOR rate adjusted for the historical spread for the estimated period in which the Series A-1 Preferred Stock will be outstanding.
     The following table presents the fair value of the theoretical swap derivative instrument included within the condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 (in thousands):

4. REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
   Series A-1 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
     Pursuant to the restated certificate of incorporation, the Board of Directors has the authority, without further action by the stockholders, to issue up to 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series. Of these 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock, 75,000 shares have been designated Series A-1. The Series A-1 Preferred Stock has a redemption value of 115% of the face value of the stock, on or after seven years from the date of issuance, or July 3, 2013. The Company recognized $0.4 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, to adjust for the redemption value at maturity.
     Additionally, the Series A-1 Preferred Stock has a feature that grants holders the right to receive interest-like returns on accrued, but unpaid, dividends that accumulate at 8% per annum. For each of the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, $1.5 million of preferred stock accretion was recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, for the 8% per annum cumulative dividends. The right to receive the accrued, but unpaid dividends is based on a variable interest rate, and as such the difference between the fixed and variable rate of returns is a theoretical swap derivative. The Company bifurcates this feature and accretes it to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock over the life of the security. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, $0.3 million and $0.2 million, of preferred stock accretion expense were recognized, for the theoretical swap derivative in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
     Finally, the cost to issue the Series A-1 Preferred Stock of $5.1 million is being accreted back to the redemption value of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock through July 2013, and generated an additional $0.2 million of preferred stock accretion for each of the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
5. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS
     The Company manages its business through two reportable segments: Banking and eCommerce. The Banking segment’s market consists primarily of banks, credit unions and other depository financial institutions in the United States. The segment’s fully integrated suite of account presentation, bill payment, relationship management and professional services are delivered through the Internet. The eCommerce segment’s market consists of billers, card issuers, processors, and other creditors such as payment acquirers and very large online billers. The segment’s account presentation, payment, relationship management and professional services are distributed to these clients through the Internet.
     Factors used to identify the Company’s reportable segments include the organizational structure of the Company and the financial information available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker in making decisions about how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s operating segments have been broken out based on similar economic and other qualitative criteria. The Company operates both reporting segments in one geographical area, the United States. The Company’s management assesses the performance of its assets in the aggregate, and accordingly, they are not presented on a segment basis.
     The results of operations from these reportable segments were as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 (in thousands):

6. INVESTMENTS
     The Company’s investment in the Columbia Strategic Cash Portfolio was liquidated in September 2009. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company received $0.6 million in liquidation payments from the Fund administrator and realized a gain of less than $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009.
7. GOODWILL
     Goodwill is not amortized and is tested at the reporting unit level at least annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The fair value of the Company’s reporting units are measured under the income method by utilizing discounted cash flows. The estimates the Company uses in evaluating goodwill are consistent with the plans and estimates that the Company uses to manage its operations.
     The Company did not experience any impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2010 or 2009. The Company’s stock price declined from $5.26 as of December 31, 2009 to $4.03 as of March 31, 2010. The Company considered whether or not the decline in stock price indicated an impairment requiring reevaluation of the goodwill. Factors evaluated include consideration of the 2010 financial performance as well as other Company specific factors which the Company believes are creating a temporary decline in market value of the Company’s stock. The Company’s financial performance exceeded the financial projections included in the annual impairment testing and there was no indication that other assumptions used in the annual impairment testing were no longer appropriate. As a result, the Company concluded that there was no indication of impairment. The Company will continue to monitor its financial performance, stock price and other factors in order to determine if there are any indicators of impairment prior to its annual impairment evaluation date.
8. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
     At March 31, 2010, the Company had three stock-based employee compensation plans. The Company used the modified-prospective transition method, as required, to recognize compensation costs; which include (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the estimated grant date fair value, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted on or subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the estimated grant-date fair value. The compensation expense for stock-based compensation was $1.0 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. A portion of the stock based compensation cost has been capitalized as part of software development costs and deferred costs. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, less than $0.1 million and approximately $0.1 million, respectively, was capitalized as part of software development costs.
   Stock Options
     The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing formula that uses the assumptions noted in the table and discussion that follows:
                 
    Three Months Ended  
    March 31,  
    2010 (1)     2009  
Dividend yield
           
Expected volatility
    %     62 %
Risk-free interest rate
    %     1.88 %
Expected life in years
          5.8  
 
(1)   The Company did not grant stock option awards during the first quarter of 2010.
     Dividend Yield. The Company has never declared or paid dividends and has no plans to do so in the foreseeable future.
     Expected Volatility. Volatility is a measure of the amount by which a financial variable, such as a share price, has fluctuated (historical daily volatility) or is expected to fluctuate (expected volatility) during a period. The Company uses the historical average daily volatility over the average expected term of the options granted to estimate expected volatility.

Table of Contents

     Risk-Free Interest Rate. The risk-free interest rate is the average U.S. Treasury rate for the week of each option grant during the period having a term that most closely resembles the expected term of the option.
     Expected Life of Option Term. Expected life of option term is the period of time that the options granted are expected to remain unexercised. Options granted during the period have a maximum term of seven to ten years. The Company uses            historical expected terms, with further consideration given to the class of employees to whom the equity awards were granted, to estimate the expected life of the option term.
     Forfeiture Rate. Forfeiture rate is the estimated percentage of equity awards granted that are expected to be forfeited or canceled on an annual basis before becoming fully vested. The Company estimates forfeiture rate based on past turnover data ranging anywhere from one to five years with further consideration given to the class of employees to whom the equity awards were granted.
     A summary of stock option activity under the 1989, 1999 and 2005 Plans as of March 31, 2010, and changes in the period then ended is presented below (in thousands, except exercise price and remaining contract term data):

Exercisable at March 31, 2010
    2,596     $ 5.62       2.42     $ 1,660  
     The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted was $1.95 per share during the three months ended March 31, 2009. The Company did not grant stock option awards during the three months ended March 31, 2010. In the table above, the total intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the market price of the Company’s stock on the last trading day of the quarter and the exercise price of the options. For options exercised, intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the market price on the date of exercise and the grant price. The intrinsic value of options exercised in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.
     As of March 31, 2010, there was $0.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options granted under the 1999 and 2005 Plans. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.
     Cash received from option exercises under all share-based payment arrangements for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was less than $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, net of shares repurchased for tax withholding purposes. The tax benefits related to the deductions from option exercises of the share-based payment arrangements will be recognized when those deductions, currently being carried forward as net operating losses, reduce taxes payable.
Restricted Stock Units
     A summary of the Company’s non-vested restricted stock units as of the three months ended March 31, 2010, and changes for the period then ended, is presented below (in thousands, except grant-date fair value data):
                 
            Weighted-  
            Average

    (481 )   $ 5.41  
 
               
Non-vested at March 31, 2010
    418     $ 5.71  
     The fair value of non-vested units is determined based on the opening trading price of the Company’s shares on the grant date. As of March 31, 2010, there was $1.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted stock units granted under the 2005 Plan. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.3 years.
9. INCOME TAXES
     The Company recorded income tax expense based on the estimated effective tax rate for the full year, adjusted for non-forecastable items recorded during the first quarter of 2010.

10


Table of Contents

     The Company’s effective tax rate was 38.9% and 35.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The year over year change in the effective tax rate relates to permanent differences, state taxes, and a stock based compensation adjustment of approximately $0.2 million relating to the difference between the expected deduction from stock based compensation which is based upon the fair value of the award at the date of issuance and the actual deduction taken which is based upon the fair value of the award at the time the award is exercised or vests.
     The Company has determined that there have been no material changes in tax positions taken in the prior periods, tax positions taken in the current period, settlements with taxing authorities resulting from lapses in the statute of limitations and unrecognized tax benefits that if recognized would affect the effective tax rate and amount of interest and penalties recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
     The tax return years since 2000 in the Company’s major tax jurisdictions, both federal and various states, have not been audited and are not currently under audit. The Company does not have reason to expect any changes in the next twelve months regarding uncertain tax positions.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
     Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In addition, the standard specifies that the fair value should be the exit price, or price received to sell the asset or liability as opposed to the entry price, or price paid to acquire an asset or assume a liability.
     The standard provides valuation techniques and a fair value hierarchy used to measure fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes inputs for valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three categories:
 
(1)   Level 1 inputs, which are considered the most reliable, are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

11


Table of Contents

(2)   Level 2 inputs are those that are observable in the market place, either directly or indirectly for the asset or liability.
 
(3)   Level 3 inputs are unobservable due to unavailability and as such the entity’s own assumptions are used.
     The tables below show how the Company categorizes certain financial assets and liabilities based on the types of inputs used in valuation techniques for measuring fair value:

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
     On April 16, 2010, Mr. Lawlor, former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commenced an action in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, captioned Lawlor v. Online Resources Corporation, Case No. 2010-5601. The action asserts employment claims for breach of contract under two stock option plans, breach of an implied employment agreement, unjust enrichment, wrongful termination and a declaratory judgment claim that a change in control occurred under the Company’s stock option plan, and requests damages of $14 million. The Company disputes all the claims raised by Mr. Lawlor and has determined the lawsuit is without merit; as a result, the Company has not recorded a provision for this legal action.
     In April 2010, Raymond T. Crosier resigned as acting Chief Executive Officer. The Company will record termination expenses of approximately $0.1million in the second quarter of 2010 as a result of Mr. Crosier’s departure. Additionally, the Company announced the termination of 11 employees in April 2010. The company will record severance costs of approximately $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2010 related to these terminations.

Table of Contents

     We currently operate in two business segments — Banking and eCommerce. The operating results of these business segments exclude general corporate overhead expenses and intangible asset amortization. Within each business segment, we face differing opportunities, challenges and risks. In our Banking segment we have the opportunity to deploy the new and enhanced products we have developed to deepen the relationships we have with our existing clients. Our differentiated account presentation and payments products, as well as our ability to deliver a full suite of remote delivery financial services, provide the opportunity for us to increase market share particularly among mid-sized financial institutions. In the bank market, a very large percentage of financial institutions now offer internet banking and bill payment to their customers. We therefore face competition in our efforts to obtain new clients from other established providers of these services. The end-user base within these clients is not highly penetrated, however, so we benefit from continuing adoption increases.
     Additionally, financial service providers have recently been adversely affected by significant illiquidity and credit tightening trends in the financial markets in which they operate. Unfavorable economic conditions adversely impacting those types of business could have a material adverse effect on our business.
     In our eCommerce segment, there are still a significant number of potential clients who do not offer services such as those we are in a position to provide to their customer base. Further, the competition to provide these services is more fragmented than it is in the banking market. These factors provide us with the opportunity to expand our client base. We also offer an innovative debt collection product that is attractive to a number of large and mid-sized potential clients. For a portion of our eCommerce business, our revenue is tied to the value of the payment being made which exposes us to the impact of economic factors on these payments. We also continuously monitor the potential risks that we face due to the interfaces we have with, and our reliance on, various payments networks.
     Across our markets, we are exposed to interest rate risk as we earn float interest in clearing accounts that hold funds collected from end-users until they are disbursed to receiving merchants or financial institutions. We also closely monitor covenant and other compliance requirements under our debt and preferred stock agreements, as well as other potential risks associated with our capital structure.
     We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, significant user and transaction growth. This growth has placed, and will continue to place, significant demands on our personnel, management and other resources. We will need to continue to expand and adapt our infrastructure, services and related products to accommodate additional clients and their end-users, increased transaction volumes and changing end-user requirements.
     Registered end-users using account presentation, bill payment or both, and the payment transactions executed by those end-users are the major drivers of our revenues. At March 31, 2010 in comparison to December 31, 2009, the number of users of our account presentation services decreased 3%, and the number of users of our payment services decreased 11%, for an overall 10% decrease in users. The decline in account presentation services users is primarily due to client departures.
     We have long-term service contracts with most of our clients. The majority of our revenues are recurring, though these contracts also provide for implementation, set-up and other non-recurring fees. Account presentation services revenues are based on either a monthly license fee, allowing our clients to register an unlimited number of customers, or a monthly fee for each registered customer. Payment services revenues are either based on a monthly fee for each customer enrolled, a fee per executed transaction, or a combination of both. Our clients pay nearly all of our fees and then determine if or how they want to pass these costs on to their users. They typically provide account presentation services to users free of charge, as they derive significant potential benefits including account retention, delivery and paper cost savings, account consolidation and cross-selling of other products.
     As a network-based service provider, we have made substantial up-front investments in infrastructure, particularly for our proprietary systems. We invested approximately $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, and $6.2 million and $7.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These investments were made to create new products, enhance the functionality of existing products and improve our infrastructure. Product enhancements allow us to remain competitive, retain existing clients and attract new clients. New products allow us to increase revenue and attract new clients. Infrastructure investments allow us to leverage ongoing advances in technology to improve our operating efficiency and capture cost savings.
     While we continue to incur ongoing development and maintenance costs, we believe the infrastructure we have built provides us with significant operating leverage. We continue to automate processes and develop applications that allow us to make only small increases in labor and other operating costs relative to increases in customers and transactions. We believe our financial and operating performance will be based primarily on our ability to leverage additional end-users and transactions over this relatively fixed cost base.
     Registered end-users using account presentation, payment services or both, and the payment transactions executed by those end-users are the major drivers of our revenues. Since March 31, 2009, the number of account presentation services users increased by 30%, and the number of payment services users increased 10%, for an overall 13% increase in users. The increase in account presentation services users is due to new clients as well as increased users with existing clients.

     Account Presentation Services. Both the Banking and eCommerce segments contribute to account presentation services revenues, which increased 30%, or $0.5 million, to $2.4 million. The increase is due to approximately $0.3 million increase in user fees, $0.1 million increase in account maintenance fees and $0.1 million increase in license fees.
     Payment Services. Both the Banking and eCommerce segments contribute to payment services revenues, which decreased to $29.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from $31.1 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease is due to declines of $0.8 million in user fees and $0.7 million in electronic transaction fees related to client losses and reduced transactions.
     Relationship Management Services. Primarily composed of revenues from the Banking segment, relationship management services revenues increased by $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2010, or 3%. Revenues increased as a result of increases in license fees.
     Professional Services and Other. Both the Banking and eCommerce segments contribute to professional services and other revenues, which increased $0.1 million, or 3%. The increase is due to a $0.4 million increase in professional service fees and a $0.4 million increase in ancillary service fees offset by a $0.7 million decrease in implementation fees due to the acceleration of professional service fees related to a discontinued project in the prior year period.

     Costs of Revenues. Costs of revenues encompass the direct expenses associated with providing our services. These expenses include telecommunications, payment processing, systems operations, customer service, implementation and professional services work. Costs of revenues remained constant for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009.
     Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased by 1% to 49%. The gross profit decrease is due to reduced revenues of an equal amount while costs of revenues remained constant.
     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses primarily consist of salaries for executive, administrative and financial personnel, consulting expenses and facilities costs such as office leases, insurance and depreciation. General and administrative expenses decreased $2.0 million, or 20%, to $7.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 due to elimination of proxy costs of $0.8 million recorded in the prior period, reduction of professional fees of approximately $0.6 million, reduction of repair and maintenance costs of approximately $0.4 million, reduction of trade show costs of $0.3 million and reduced depreciation expense of $0.1 million.

Table of Contents

     Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses include salaries and commissions paid to sales and client services personnel and other costs incurred in selling our services and products. Sales and marketing expenses decreased $0.7 million, or 12%, to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The primary reason for the decrease is reduced amortization expense of approximately $0.4 million related to our customer lists and reduced partnership commission of approximately $0.3 million.
     Systems and Development. Systems and development expenses include salaries, consulting fees and all other expenses incurred in supporting the research and development of new services and products and new technology to enhance existing products. Systems and development expenses increased by $0.3 million, or 14%, to $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase is due to increased use of consultants.
     Income from Operations. Income from operations increased $1.7 million, or 86%, to $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase is due to lower general and administrative and sales and marketing expenses.
     Interest Income. Interest income remained constant for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the same period in the prior year.
     Interest and Other Expense. Interest and other expense decreased by $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 due to reduced interest payments on the 2007 Notes of approximately $0.7 million and a decrease in the mark-to-market adjustment to the theoretical swap derivative of approximately $0.3 million.
     Income Tax Provision. We recognized tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as a result of $3.6 million of income before income taxes generated during the first quarter of 2010. Our effective tax rate for the period was 38.9%. The difference between our effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate is primarily due to permanent differences, state taxes, and a stock based compensation adjustment of approximately $0.2 million relating to the difference between the expected deduction from stock based compensation which is based upon the fair value of the award at the date of issuance and the actual deduction taken which is based upon the fair value of the award at the time the award is exercised or vests.
     Preferred Stock Accretion. The accretion related to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock issued on July 3, 2006 increased slightly, or 4%, due to compounding of dividends.
     Net Loss Available to Common Stockholders. Net loss available to common stockholders decreased $1.4 million to net loss of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to net loss of $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Basic and diluted net loss available to common stockholders per share was $0.01 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to a net loss available to common stockholders of $0.05 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Basic and diluted shares outstanding increased by 3% primarily as a result of shares issued in connection with the exercise of stock options, issuance of restricted stock units and our employees’ participation in the employee stock purchase plan.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
     Net cash provided by operating activities was $8.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This represented a $0.3 million increase in cash provided by operating activities compared to the same prior year period, which was primarily the result of an increase in net income of $1.5 million and reduced deferred tax benefits of $2.0 million offset by a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $0.5 million, change in fair value of theoretical swap derivative of $0.3 million, and changes in certain other assets and liabilities of $2.2 million.
     Net cash used by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $6.4 million, which was the result of capital expenditures.
     Net cash used by financing activities was $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, which was primarily the result of a principal payment on our 2007 Notes of $4.0 million and $0.2 million in net proceeds from the issuance of common stock.
     Given continuing economic uncertainty and interest rate volatility, we could experience unforeseeable impacts on our results of operations, cash flows, ability to meet debt and other contractual requirements, and other items in future periods. While there can be no guarantees as to outcome, we have developed a contingent plan to address the negative effects of these uncertainties, if they occur.
     Future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including our need to finance any future acquisitions, the timing of research and product development efforts and the expansion of our marketing effort. We expect to continue to expend significant amounts on expansion of facility infrastructure, ongoing research and development, computer and related equipment, and personnel.
     We currently believe that cash on hand, investments and the cash we expect to generate from operations will be sufficient to meet our current anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. There can be no assurance that additional capital beyond the amounts currently forecasted by us will not be required or that any such required additional capital will be available on reasonable terms, if at all, at such time as required.

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
     We invest primarily in short-term, investment grade, marketable government, corporate, and mortgage-backed debt securities. Our interest income is most sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates and given the short-term nature of our investments, our exposure to interest rate risk is not material. We do not have operations subject to risks of foreign currency fluctuations, nor do we use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio.
     We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes as they affect our outstanding senior secured notes, or 2007 Notes. The interest rate on our 2007 Notes varies based on LIBOR and, consequently, our interest expense could fluctuate with changes in the LIBOR rate through the maturity date of the senior secured note.
     We earn float interest in clearing accounts that hold funds collected from end-users until they are disbursed to receiving merchants or financial institutions. The float interest we earn on these clearing accounts is considered in our determination of the fee structure for clients and represents a portion of the payment for our services. As such, the float interest earned is classified as payment services revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. This float interest revenue is exposed to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates as it relates to the balances of these clearing accounts. The float interest totaled $0.1 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. If there was a change in interest rates of one percent as of March 31, 2010, revenues associated with float interest would have increased by approximately $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
     Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and for internal controls over financial reporting.
     (a) As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the interim Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2010 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management including our CEO and CFO as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures.
     (b) There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) identified in connection with the evaluation of such internal control that occurred during our last fiscal quarter (as required by Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d)) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
     We are not a party to any pending material litigation nor are we aware of any pending or threatened litigation that would have a material adverse effect on us, our business or results of operation.
ITEM 1A.   RISK FACTORS
     There have been no material changes to risk factors as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2010 except for the following:
     Our risk factor entitled “Our recent change of chief executive officer may be viewed negatively and have an adverse impact on our business” has been modified to reflect recent developments related to our former CEO and current interim CEO. The modified risk factor reads as follows:
     Our recent changes of chief executive officer may be viewed negatively and have an adverse impact on our business.
     Our board of directors recently appointed John C. Dorman, co-Chairman of the board of directors, to act as interim chief executive officer until a permanent chief executive officer is retained. Mr. Dorman replaces Raymond T. Crosier, who served as interim chief executive officer from December 14, 2009 until his resignation on April 20, 2010. Mr. Crosier replaced Matthew P. Lawlor, who had served as chief executive officer for the preceding twenty years and retired on December 14, 2009. Investors, employees, customers, suppliers, and others could react negatively to the retirement of Mr. Lawlor, the resignation of Mr. Crosier, the appointment of Mr. Dorman as interim chief executive officer or the board of directors’ permanent replacement as our chief executive officer. Our relationship with Mr. Lawlor is currently adversarial and Mr. Lawlor has initiated litigation against the company related to the financial arrangements associated with his retirement. In addition, Mr. Lawlor owns a significant number of shares of our common stock and could pursue a proxy fight or otherwise attempt to influence the affairs of the company. The potential negative reactions related to the changes in our chief executive officer position and any litigation or proxy fight initiated by Mr. Lawlor could adversely impact our revenue, capital needs, ability to retain employees, relations with customers, suppliers, investors, and others, and business in general.
