NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

— UNAUDITED —

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rainmaker Systems, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Rainmaker”, “we”, “our” or “the Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The interim financial statements are unaudited but reflect all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the results of these periods.

The results of our operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010, or any other period. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Rainmaker’s financial statements and notes thereto included in Rainmaker’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. Balance sheet information as of December 31, 2009 has been derived from the audited financial statements for the year then ended.

Certain amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements for 2009 have been reclassified to conform to the 2010 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations, total assets or accumulated deficit.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business

Rainmaker Systems, Inc. is a leading provider of sales and marketing solutions, combining hosted application software and execution services designed to drive more revenue for our clients. Our core services include the following: service contract sales and renewals, software license sales, subscription renewals and warranty extension sales (Contract Sales); lead generation, qualification and management (Lead Development); and hosted application software for training sales (Training Sales).

We operate in three operating segments which have been aggregated into one reportable segment as determined by revenue generated from sales and marketing solutions. We have operations within the United States of America, Canada, Philippines, United Kingdom, Germany and France where we perform services on behalf of our clients to customers who are primarily located in North America.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rainmaker Systems, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our estimates are based on historical experience, input from sources outside of the Company, and other relevant facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Accounting policies that include particularly significant estimates are revenue recognition and presentation policies, valuation of accounts receivable, measurement of our deferred tax asset and the corresponding valuation allowance, allocation of purchase price in business combinations, fair value estimates for the expense of employee stock options and the assessment of recoverability and measuring impairment of goodwill, intangible assets, private company investments, fixed assets and commitments and contingencies.

Table of Contents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents generally consist of money market funds and certificates of deposit. The fair market value of cash equivalents represents the quoted market prices at the balance sheet dates and approximates their carrying value.

The following is a summary of our cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 (in thousands):

   December 31,

Total cash and cash equivalents

   $ 15,438    $ 15,129
             

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our clients’ customers to make required payments of amounts due to us. The allowance is comprised of specifically identified account balances for which collection is currently deemed doubtful. In addition to specifically identified accounts, estimates of amounts that may not be collectible from those accounts whose collection is not yet deemed doubtful but which may become doubtful in the future are made based on historical bad debt write-off experience. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, our allowance for potentially uncollectible accounts was $28,000 and $58,000, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is recorded using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives. Computer equipment and capitalized software are depreciated over two to five years and furniture and fixtures are depreciated over five years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is recorded using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Amortization of fixed assets under capital leases is included in depreciation expense.

Costs of internal use software are accounted for in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-40, Internal Use Software and FASB ASC 350-50, Website Development Costs. This guidance requires that we expense computer software and website development costs as they are incurred during the preliminary project stage. Once the capitalization criteria of ASC 350-40 and ASC 350-50 have been met, external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining internal-use software, including website development, the payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to the internal use computer software and associated interest costs are capitalized. Capitalized costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the term of related client agreement, if such development relates to a specific outsource client, or the software’s estimated useful life, ranging from two to five years. Capitalized internal use software and website development costs are included in property and equipment in the accompanying balance sheets.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

We completed several acquisitions during the period January 1, 2005 through June 30, 2010. Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition purchase price over the estimated fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. In our analysis of goodwill and other intangible assets we apply the guidance of FASB ASC 350-20-35, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other-Subsequent Measurement, in determining whether any impairment conditions exist. In our analysis of other finite lived amortizable intangible assets, we apply the guidance of FASB ASC 360-10-35, Property, Plant and Equipment-Subsequent Measurement, in determining whether any impairment conditions exist. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. Intangible assets are attributable to the various technologies, customer relationships and trade names of the businesses we have acquired.

In the fourth quarter of 2009, we performed our annual goodwill impairment evaluation and determined that there was no impairment in 2009. At December 31, 2009, we had approximately $3.8 million in goodwill recorded on our contract sales reporting unit. The estimated fair value of this reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by approximately $1.2 million or 7% at December 31, 2009.

Table of Contents

At June 30, 2010, we had approximately $3.8 million in goodwill recorded on our contract sales reporting unit and approximately $1.4 million recorded on our Rainmaker Europe reporting unit from the acquisition of Optima that we closed in January 2010. See Note 7 below for a discussion of this acquisition.

We report segment results in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting. The method for determining what information is reported is based on the way that management organizes the operating segments for making operational decisions and assessments of financial performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by detailed information listing revenues by customer and product line, for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. Currently the chief operating decision maker does not use product line financial performance as a basis for business operating decisions. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that it has three operating segments which have been aggregated into one reportable segment as determined by revenue generated from sales and marketing solutions. However, in accordance with FASB ASC 350-20-35, we are required to test goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level which is an operating segment or one level below an operating segment. Thus, our reporting units for goodwill impairment testing are Contract Sales, Lead Development, Rainmaker Asia and Rainmaker Europe.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets including our purchased intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. In accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-35, Property, Plant and Equipment-Subsequent Measurement, long-lived assets, such as property, equipment, and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.

In the fourth quarter of 2009, we performed our annual goodwill impairment analysis and also evaluated our long-lived assets and noted no impairment.

Based on information Rainmaker received on April 30, 2010 from a private company in which Rainmaker invested in 2007 in the form of a secured note and a minority equity investment, we took a non-cash charge in the first quarter of 2010 for the carrying value of our minority equity investment of $740,000.

Revenue Recognition and Presentation

Substantially all of our revenue is generated from the sale of service contracts and maintenance renewals, lead development services and software subscriptions for hosted internet sales of web based training. We recognize revenue from the sale of our clients’ service contracts and maintenance renewals on the “net basis”, which represents the amount billed to the end customer less the amount paid to our client. Revenue from the sale of service contracts and maintenance renewals is recognized when a purchase order from a client’s customer is received, the service contract or maintenance agreement is delivered, the fee is fixed or determinable, the collection of the receivable is reasonably assured, and no significant post-delivery obligations remain unfulfilled. Revenue from lead development services we perform is recognized as the services are accepted and is generally earned ratably over the service contract period. Some of our lead development service revenue is earned when we achieve certain attainment levels and is recognized upon customer acceptance of the service. We earn revenue from our software application subscriptions of hosted online sales of web based training ratably over each contract period. Since these software subscriptions are usually paid in advance, we have recorded a deferred revenue liability on our balance sheet that represents the prepaid portions of subscriptions that will be earned over the next one to two years.

We also evaluate our agreements for multiple element arrangements. Our agreements typically do not contain multiple deliverables. However, in the few instances where our agreements have contained multiple deliverables, they usually do not have value to our customers on a standalone basis, and therefore the deliverables are considered together as one unit of accounting. Revenue is then recorded using the proportional performance model, where revenue is recognized as performance occurs over the term of the contract and any initial set up fees are recognized over the estimated customer life.

Our revenue recognition policy involves significant judgments and estimates about collectability. We assess the probability of collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction history and/or the creditworthiness of our clients’ customers, which is based on current published credit ratings, current events and circumstances regarding the business of our clients’ customers and other factors that we believe are relevant. If we determine that collection is not

Table of Contents

reasonably assured, we defer revenue recognition until such time as collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash payment.

In addition, we provide an allowance in accrued liabilities for the cancellation of service contracts that occurs within a specified time after the sale, which is typically less than 30 days. This amount is calculated based on historical results and constitutes a reduction of the net revenue we record for the commission we earn on the sale.

Costs of Services

Costs of services consist of costs associated with promoting and selling our clients’ products and services including compensation costs of sales personnel, sales commissions and bonuses, costs of designing, producing and delivering marketing services, and salaries and other personnel expenses related to fee-based activities. Costs of services also include the cost of allocated facility and telephone usage for our telesales representatives as well as other direct costs associated with the delivery of our services. Most of the costs are personnel related and are mostly variable in relation to our net revenue. Bonuses and sales commissions will typically change in proportion to revenue or profitability.

We expense advertising costs as incurred. These costs were not material and are included in sales and marketing expense.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes using the liability method. The liability method requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements, but have not been reflected in our taxable income. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value. Therefore, we provide a valuation allowance to the extent that we do not believe it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient taxable income in future periods to realize the benefit of our deferred tax assets. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had gross deferred tax assets of $27.8 million and $25.8 million, respectively. In 2010 and 2009, the deferred tax asset was subject to a 100% valuation allowance and therefore is not recorded on our balance sheet as an asset. Realization of our deferred tax assets is limited and we may not be able to fully utilize these deferred tax assets to reduce our tax rates.

FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under this guidance, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, FASB ASC 740 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Our policy for recording interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions is to record such items as a component of income before taxes. Penalties, interest paid and interest received are recorded in interest and other income (expense), net, in the consolidated statement of operations. There were immaterial amounts accrued for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2010.

Stock-Based Compensation

FASB ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, primarily focusing on accounting for transactions where an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. This guidance requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. See Note 9 for further discussion of this statement and its effects on the financial statements presented herein.

Concentrations of Credit Risk and Credit Evaluations

Our financial instruments that expose us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable.

Table of Contents

We place our cash and cash equivalents in a variety of financial institutions and limit the amount of credit exposure through diversification and by investing the funds in money market accounts and certificates of deposit which are insured by the FDIC. At times, the balance of cash deposits is in excess of the FDIC insurance limits.

We sell our clients’ products and services primarily to business end users and, in most transactions, assume full credit risk on the sale. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the financial condition of our client’s customer, and collateral is generally not required. Credit losses have traditionally been immaterial, and such losses have been within management’s expectations.

We have generated a significant portion of our revenue from sales to customers of a limited number of clients. In the three months ended June 30, 2010, two clients accounted for 10% or more of our revenue, with Hewlett-Packard representing approximately 22% of our revenue and Symantec representing approximately 12% of our revenue. In the six months ending June 30, 2010, three clients accounted for 10% or more of our revenue, with Sun Microsystems representing approximately 30% of our revenue, Hewlett-Packard representing approximately 14% of our revenue and Symantec representing approximately 10% of our revenue. We have multiple agreements with Hewlett-Packard. On one of our programs, HP has decided to utilize our ecommerce technology and their internal staff for telesales. We expect our overall revenue from Hewlett-Packard to decrease as a result of this change. In the three months ended June 30, 2009, three clients accounted for more than 10% of our revenue. Sun Microsystems accounted for approximately 25% of our revenue, Hewlett-Packard represented approximately 16% of our revenue and Symantec accounted for approximately 11% of our revenue. In the six months ended June 30, 2009, two clients accounted for more than 10% of our revenue with Sun Microsystems representing approximately 20% of our revenue and Hewlett-Packard representing approximately 17% of our revenue.

No individual client’s end-user customer accounted for 10% or more of our revenues in any period presented.

We have outsourced services agreements with our clients that expire at various dates ranging through June 2013. Our agreements with Hewlett-Packard, a significant client, expire at various dates from August 2010 through August 2012, and can generally be terminated prior to expiration with ninety days notice. Our agreement with Symantec, a significant client, was renewed on February 24, 2010, effective as of April 1, 2010, for a term of two years, expiring on March 31, 2012, if not renewed prior to expiration. In addition, we signed an agreement in June 2010 with Symantec and developed and deployed the Symantec Acquisition Store for business-to-business online sales. This agreement runs from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2012 with no rights of termination for the first 18 months of the agreement. We previously had various agreements with Sun Microsystems, our largest client as of December 31, 2009, with various termination provisions ranging from termination with 60 days notice to termination rights beginning in August 2010. On February 5, 2010, we received written notice from Sun Microsystems that they had elected to terminate the Global Inside Sales Program Statement of Work agreement dated March 31, 2009, effective as of February 28, 2010. The notice followed the acquisition of Sun Microsystems by Oracle Corporation and affected the contract sales services that we were performing for Sun. These services accounted for approximately 13% of our fiscal 2009 annual revenue and 21% of our fourth quarter fiscal 2009 revenue. We also received notification from Sun Microsystems dated March 31, 2010, terminating the teleweb services that we were performing for Sun effective as of May 31, 2010. These services accounted for approximately 6% of our revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2010. As of June 30, 2010, we are no longer performing any services related to the Sun Microsystems contracts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The amounts reported as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.

The fair value of short-term and long-term capital lease and debt obligations is estimated based on current interest rates available to us for debt instruments with similar terms, degrees of risk and remaining maturities. The carrying values of these obligations, as of each period presented, approximate their respective fair values.

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value 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 (an exit price). ASC 820 has also established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. We determined the fair value of funds invested in money market funds to be level 1 input, which does not entail material subjectivity because the methodology employed does not necessitate significant judgment, and the pricing inputs are observed from actively quoted markets.

Segment Reporting

We report segment results in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting. The method for determining what information is reported is based on the way that management organizes the operating segments for making operational

decisions and assessments of financial performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by detailed information listing revenues by customer and product line, for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. Currently the chief operating decision maker does not use product line financial performance as a basis for business operating decisions. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that it has three operating segments which have been aggregated into one reportable segment as determined by revenue generated from sales and marketing solutions. We have call center operations within the United States of America, Canada, Philippines, United Kingdom, Germany and France where we perform services on behalf of our clients.

Foreign Currency Translation

During January 2007, we established a Canadian foreign subsidiary and subsequently purchased the Canadian based assets of CAS Systems. Additionally, in July 2007, we purchased Qinteraction Limited and its Philippine-based subsidiary. In the first quarter of 2009, we established our Rainmaker Europe subsidiary in London, England. The functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries was determined to be their respective local currencies (Canadian Dollar, Philippine Peso, and Great Britain Pound). Foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated at the current exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at weighted average exchange rates in effect during the year. The related unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency translation are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of stockholders’ equity in the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss). Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in interest and other income (expense), net in the consolidated statement of operations.

Related Party Transactions

The Chairman of our board of directors also serves on the board of Saama Technologies, a technology services firm. During the three months ended June 30, 2010, we did not utilize the services of Saama Technologies. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we paid Saama Technologies $11,000 for technology services. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, we paid Saama Technologies $41,000 and $189,000, respectively, for technology services. We may continue to utilize their services and may expand the scope of Saama Technologies’ engagement in the future.

In October 2007, we closed an OEM licensing agreement with Market2Lead, Inc. (“Market2Lead”), a software-as-a-service provider of business-to-business automated marketing solutions, to further enhance LeadWorks, Rainmaker’s on-demand marketing automation application. In connection with this agreement, Rainmaker provided Market2Lead with growth financing of $2.5 million in secured convertible and term debt. In October 2008, one-half of the debt was converted into preferred shares of Market2Lead. In May 2010, we received payment from Market2Lead for the $1,250,000 in remaining term debt plus accrued interest of approximately $170,000 as Market2Lead was sold. In connection with this sale, we took a non-cash charge in the first quarter of 2010 for the carrying value of our minority equity investment of $740,000. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we did not utilize the services of Market2Lead. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, we paid Market2Lead approximately $33,000 and $48,000, respectively, for marketing services.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-13, which amends ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, to require companies to allocate revenue in multiple-element arrangements based on an element’s estimated selling price if vendor-specific or other third-party evidence of value is not available. ASU 2009-13 is effective beginning January 1, 2011. Earlier application is permitted. We are currently evaluating both the timing and the impact of the pending adoption of the ASU on our consolidated financial statements and we don’t expect it to have a material impact.

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-01, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“ASC” or “Codification”). The Codification is the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied to nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification does not change current GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents are superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the Codification is considered nonauthoritative. The Codification is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. We have made the appropriate changes to GAAP references in our financial statements.

Table of Contents

In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855, Subsequent Events, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. In February of 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 855), Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. This amendment to Topic 855 eliminates the requirement that an SEC filer disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements. The ASU does not change the requirement that SEC filers evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued. We adopted the provisions of ASC 855 in the second quarter of fiscal 2009. 

 

3. NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per common share also gives effect, as applicable, to the potential dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, unvested restricted share awards, and convertible securities, using the if converted method, as of the beginning of the period presented or the original issuance date, if later.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per common share (in thousands, except per share data):

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company excluded certain unvested restricted share awards, options and warrants from the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share because these securities were anti-dilutive. In the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company excluded approximately 2.1 million unvested restricted shares from the calculation of basic net loss per share as these securities were anti-dilutive, and the Company excluded the dilutive effect of an additional 1.7 million options and warrants from the calculation of diluted net income per share as these securities were anti-dilutive. In the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company excluded approximately 2.2 million unvested restricted shares from the calculation of basic net loss per share as these securities were anti-dilutive, and the Company excluded the dilutive effect of an additional 1.7 million options and warrants from the calculation of diluted net income per share as these securities were anti-dilutive. In the three months ended June 30, 2009, the Company excluded approximately 2.4 million unvested restricted shares from the calculation of basic net loss per share as these securities were anti-dilutive, and the Company excluded the dilutive effect of an additional 1.9 million options and warrants from the calculation of diluted net income per share as these securities were anti-dilutive. In the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company excluded approximately 2.3 million unvested restricted shares from the calculation of basic net loss per share as these securities were anti-dilutive, and the Company excluded the dilutive effect of an additional 1.9 million options and warrants from the calculation of diluted net income per share as these securities were anti-dilutive.

In connection with our acquisition of the assets of CAS and its Canadian subsidiary, Rainmaker and its Canadian subsidiary, Rainmaker Systems (Canada) Inc., issued notes payable in the amounts of $1.4 million and $600,000, respectively. The two notes were payable in three consecutive annual installments of approximately $467,000 and $200,000, respectively, each, commencing on January 25, 2008, with subsequent installments payable on the anniversary date in 2009 and 2010. The final installments of the notes were paid in January 2010.

Revolving Credit Facility & Term Loan – Bridge Bank

In April 2004, we entered into a business loan agreement and a commercial security agreement with Bridge Bank (the Revolving Credit Facility). The Revolving Credit Facility originally matured in May 2005, and provided borrowing availability up to a maximum of $3.0 million through a secured revolving line of credit that included a $1.0 million letter of credit facility. In December 2005, our Revolving Credit Facility was increased to $4.0 million. In October 2008, we executed further amendments to the Revolving Credit Facility. The amendments extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from October 10, 2008 to October 10, 2009 and increased the maximum amount of revolving credit available from $4,000,000 to $6,000,000, with a $1,000,000 sub-facility for standby letters of credit and a new $3,000,000 sub-facility for the purpose of purchasing new equipment until December 31, 2008. Advances under the equipment finance sub-facility were being repaid in equal monthly installments that commenced in January 2009 and were to continue through October 2011. On December 3, 2009, we executed a further amendment to the Revolving Credit Facility. The amendment extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from October 10, 2009 to October 10, 2010. The maximum amount of revolving credit available to the Company remains at $6,000,000, with a $1,000,000 existing sub-facility for standby letters of credit, and a $3.5 million maximum sub-facility that is a combination of the equipment finance sub-facility and the term loan line which could be used for any borrowings until March 10, 2010. The interest rate per annum for revolving advances under the Revolving Credit Facility is equal to the greater of (i) 3.5%, or (ii) one quarter of one percent (0.25%) above the prime lending rate, currently at 4.5%. The interest rate per annum for advances under the equipment finance sub-facility and the term loan line is equal to a fixed rate of 6.0%. In accordance with the amended Revolving Credit Facility, any advances made under the term loan line were combined with the existing equipment sub-facility advances outstanding on March 31, 2010, and were re-amortized and payable in thirty six (36) equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued interest, beginning on April 10, 2010, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter through March 31, 2013, at which time all amounts owed, if any, shall be immediately due and payable. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had $3,095,000 outstanding under the equipment finance sub-facility and term loan line and had one undrawn letter of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility in the aggregate face amount of $100,000. The $3.1 million in term loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility is currently being paid in equal monthly installments of approximately $94,000 through March 2013.

The amended Revolving Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of Rainmaker’s consolidated assets including intellectual property. Rainmaker must comply with certain financial covenants, including not incurring a quarterly non-GAAP profit or loss negatively exceeding by more than 10% the amount of the non-GAAP profit or loss recited in the Company’s operating plan approved by Bridge Bank and maintaining unrestricted cash with Bridge Bank equal to the greater of $2.0 million or the principal amount of the indebtedness from time to time outstanding with Bridge Bank. The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary covenants that will, subject to limited exceptions, limit our ability to, among other things, (i) create liens; (ii) make capital expenditures; (iii) pay cash dividends; and (iv) merge or consolidate with another company. The Revolving Credit Facility also provides for customary events of default, including nonpayment, breach of covenants,

payment defaults of other indebtedness, and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization that may result in acceleration of outstanding amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, we did not meet the performance to plan financial covenant and we received a waiver from Bridge Bank for this violation. We were in compliance with all other loan covenants. In the quarter ending September 30, 2010, we will again be subject to the performance to plan financial covenant provision of the Revolving Credit Facility based on the revised forecast that will be provided to Bridge Bank in August 2010.

Notes Payable – Optima acquisition

On January 29, 2010, we entered into and closed a stock purchase agreement for Optima Consulting Partners Limited (“Optima”). In accordance with this agreement, we entered into a note payable for $350,000 payable in two installments with $200,000 plus accrued interest due eighteen months from the closing date and $150,000 plus accrued interest due twenty four months after the closing date. The interest rate on the note payable is 0.4% per year and we have recorded the present value of the note payable, discounted over 2 years at a rate of 6.2%.

Additionally in connection with the Optima acquisition, we assumed an existing note payable to Barclays Bank in the amount of 77,788 Great Britain Pounds (“GBP”) as of the closing date of the acquisition. The note bears interest at 4.25% per year over the lender’s base rate and is currently 4.75% as of June 30, 2010. The note will be payable in monthly principal installments of approximately 2,800 GBP through May 2012. Using the exchange rate at June 30, 2010, the current note payable balance is approximately $97,000 and the monthly payment approximates $4,000.

Future debt maturities at June 30, 2010 are as follows (in thousands):

Capital Lease Obligations

In March 2008, we entered into a 3-year software licensing agreement with Microsoft GP. In accordance with the terms of the agreement, we were to pay three annual installments of approximately $254,000 beginning in April 2008 for the licensing rights to use certain Microsoft software. We made the final payment on this lease in the first quarter of 2010.

 

7. ACQUISITIONS

Optima Consulting Partners Ltd.

On January 29, 2010, our wholly-owned subsidiary Rainmaker Europe entered into and closed a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the shareholders of Optima Consulting Partners Limited (“Optima”), a business-to-business lead development provider with offices in England, France and Germany. Under the terms of the Agreement, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of Optima in exchange for a cash payment of $492,000, 480,000 shares of Rainmaker common stock valued at approximately $701,000, and a note payable of $350,000 payable in two installments with $200,000 plus accrued interest due eighteen months from the closing date and $150,000 plus accrued interest due twenty four months after the closing date, and subject to post closing conditions.

The agreement also provides for two potential additional payments of $375,000 each in a combination of stock and/or cash contingent on certain performance metrics in fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2011, and subject to post closing conditions. The fair value of the potential additional payments was derived using Company estimates (Level 3 inputs) of a 50% probability of achievement. As of June 30, 2010, management’s calculation of the fair value of the contingent consideration was materially unchanged from its acquisition date amount.

Amortization of the customer relationships intangible asset is calculated using an accelerated method that is based on the estimated future cash flows for the relationships. The estimated useful life of the customer relationships acquired is two years. We estimated the cash flows associated with the excess earnings the customers would generate and allocated the present value of those earnings to the asset. We used a discount rate of 25.0%.

No pro forma information is presented for the Optima acquisition since the effect of this acquisition on the results of operations was deemed insignificant.

Grow Commerce

On October 5, 2009, we entered into and closed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Grow Commerce, Inc., a California corporation. Grow Commerce was engaged in the business of providing ecommerce solutions to business customers and had developed certain technology that we plan to integrate into our technology platform to advance our ecommerce strategy during the 2010 fiscal year and future years. Under the terms of the Agreement, we purchased certain software products, customer contracts, vendor and other contracts, and all intellectual property rights of Grow Commerce for $600,000. A cash payment of $510,000 was made at closing and $90,000 was withheld as a reserve for the purposes of securing indemnity obligations under the agreement. The reserve will be released at the end of the twelve-month period following the acquisition, subject to potential offsets and post-closing conditions.

Our acquisition of Grow Commerce has been accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, Business Combinations. A portion of the purchase price was allocated to Grow Commerce’s net identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the net identifiable intangible assets was recorded as goodwill. The total purchase price was allocated as follows (in thousands):

 

Developed Technology

8. COMMON STOCK

In July 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a Stock Repurchase Program (the “Program”) authorizing the repurchase of up to $3 million of its common stock. Under the Program, shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices. The timing and actual number of shares purchased will depend on a variety of factors, such as price, corporate and regulatory requirements, and market conditions. Repurchases under the Program will be made using the Company’s available cash or borrowings. The Program initially had a one-year term and may be commenced, suspended or terminated at any time, or from time-to-time at management’s discretion without prior notice. In May 2009, the Board of Directors approved extending the Program for an additional six months through January 31, 2010, and in December 2009, the Board of Directors approved extending the Program for an additional six months through July 30, 2010. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we purchased 58,232 shares at a cost of approximately $73,000 or an average cost of $1.24 per share. Since inception of the program, we have purchased 705,040 shares at a cost of approximately $994,000 or an average cost of $1.41 per share. As of June 30, 2010, approximately $2,006,000 was available for future repurchases under the Program. In July 2010, we purchased an additional 21,005 shares at a cost of approximately $26,000 or an average cost of $1.23 per share through the end of the expiration of the plan on July 30, 2010.

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company had restricted stock awards that vested. The Company is required to withhold income taxes at statutory rates based on the closing market value of the vested shares on the date of vesting. The Company offers employees the ability to have vested shares withheld by the Company in an amount equal to the amount of taxes to be withheld. Based on this, the Company purchased 184,843 shares during the six months ended June 30, 2010, with a cost of approximately $247,000 from employees to cover federal and state taxes due.

 

9. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE

In 2003, the board of directors adopted and the shareholders approved the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2003 Plan”). The 2003 Plan provides for the issuance of incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options to employees, consultants and non-employee members of the board of directors, and issuance of shares of common stock for purchase or as a bonus for services rendered (restricted stock awards). Options granted under the 2003 Plan are priced at not less than 100% of the fair value of the common stock on the date of grant and have a maximum term of ten years from the date of grant. In the case of incentive stock options granted to employees who own 10% or more of our outstanding common stock, the exercise price may not be less than 110% of the fair value of the common stock on the date of grant and such options will have a maximum term of five years from the date of grant. Options granted to employees and consultants become exercisable and vest in one or more installments over varying periods ranging up to five years as specified by the board of directors. Unexercised options expire upon, or within, six months of termination of employment, depending on the circumstances surrounding termination. Restricted stock awards granted to employees, consultants and non-employee directors typically vest over a one to four year period from the date of grant. Vesting of these awards is contingent upon continued service and any unvested awards are forfeited immediately upon termination of service, subject to board discretion.

We expense stock-based compensation to the same operating expense categories that the respective award grantee’s salary expense is reported. The table below reflects stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 (in thousands):

   $ 736    $ 653    $ 1,513    $ 1,275
                           

At June 30, 2010, approximately $3.0 million of stock-based compensation relating to unvested awards had not been amortized and will be expensed in future periods through 2014. Under current grants that are unvested and outstanding, approximately $1.2 million will be expensed in the remainder of 2010 as stock-based compensation subject to true-up adjustments for forfeitures and vestings during the year.

We calculate the value of our stock option awards when they are granted. Accordingly, we update our valuation assumptions for the risk-free interest rate on a monthly basis and volatility on a quarterly basis and apply these to the new grants each quarter that option grants are awarded. Annually, we prepare an analysis of the historical activity within our option plans as well as the demographic characteristics of the grantees of options within our stock option plan to determine the estimated life of the grants and possible ranges of estimated forfeiture. During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the weighted average valuation assumptions for stock option awards and forfeiture rates used for the expense calculations for stock option and restricted stock awards were as follows:

 

     Six Months Ended
June 30,
 
     2010     2009  

Expected life in years

   3.39      3.65   

Volatility

Risk-free interest rate

   1.4   1.7

Dividend rate

   0.0   0.0

Forfeiture Rates:

    

Options

   31.03   27.09

Restricted Stock

   16.82   12.34

Expected life of our option grants is estimated based on our analysis of our actual historical option exercises and cancellations. Expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility from traded shares of our stock over the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the rate of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury instrument with a remaining term approximately equal to the expected term. We have not historically paid dividends and we do not expect to pay dividends in the near term and therefore we have set the dividend rate at 0.0%.

In accordance with the 2003 Plan, the number of shares authorized for grant under the 2003 Plan automatically increases on the first trading date of January by an amount equal to the lesser of 4% of our outstanding common stock at December 31 or 1,000,000 shares. Shares outstanding at December 31, 2009 were 21,996,003 and the additional shares authorized amounted to 879,840 in the table above.

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, there were 2,520 shares cancelled from our plans previous to the 2003 Plan. These shares are not eligible for future grant under the 2003 Plan.

The following table summarizes the activity with regard to restricted stock awards during the six months ended June 30, 2010. Restricted stock awards are issued from the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan and any issuances will reduce the shares available for grant as indicated in the previous table.

10. COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

With the establishment of our Canadian foreign subsidiary and the subsequent purchase of Canadian based assets from CAS on January 25, 2007, we accordingly recorded a foreign currency translation adjustment within other comprehensive loss during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, since the functional currency of this foreign location was determined to be the Canadian dollar. Additionally, on July 19, 2007, we purchased Qinteraction Limited and its Philippine-based subsidiary. The functional currency of the Philippine-based subsidiary is the Philippine peso and we have recorded a foreign currency translation adjustment within other comprehensive loss during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. In the first quarter of 2009, we established our Rainmaker Europe subsidiary in the United Kingdom. The functional currency of this subsidiary is the Great Britain Pound and we have recorded a foreign currency translation adjustment within other comprehensive loss during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology.

Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2010, we had approximately 160 clients, primarily in the computer hardware and software, telecommunications and financial services industries.

We have acquired several businesses that have expanded our client base and geographic presence to include international operations in Canada, Europe and the Philippines and enhanced the functionality of our Revenue Delivery Platform. These acquisitions have extended our technology capabilities and added new services which we offer across our expanding client base.

Critical Accounting Policies/Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts in our consolidated financial statements. We evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis, including those related to our revenues, asset impairments, income taxes, stock-based compensation and commitments and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Although actual results have historically been reasonably consistent with management’s expectations, the actual results may differ from these estimates or our estimates may be affected by different assumptions or conditions.

Management has discussed the development of our critical accounting policies with the audit committee of the board of directors and they have reviewed the disclosures of such policies and management’s estimates in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

With the establishment of our Canadian foreign subsidiary and the subsequent purchase of Canadian based assets in 2007, we adopted a policy for recording foreign currency transactions and translation in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. For our Canadian subsidiary, the functional currency has been determined to be the local currency, and therefore, assets and liabilities are translated at period-end exchange rates, and statement of operations items are translated at an average exchange rate prevailing during the period. Such translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity. Also in 2007, we acquired Qinteraction Limited and its Philippine-based subsidiary. As a result of this acquisition, we also adopted the policy mentioned above for recording foreign currency transactions and translations for this subsidiary as the functional currency has been determined to be the local currency for the Philippine-based subsidiary. In January of 2009, we established our Rainmaker Europe subsidiary in the United Kingdom. We adopted the policy mentioned above for recording foreign currency transactions and translations for this subsidiary as the functional currency has been determined to be the local currency (Great Britain Pound) for the UK based subsidiary. Gains and losses from foreign currency denominated transactions are included in interest and other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. Losses from foreign currency denominated transactions amounted to $51,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to gains of approximately $63,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Losses from foreign currency denominated transactions amounted to approximately $73,000 and $14,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Management believes there have been no other significant changes during the six months ended June 30, 2010 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 31, 2010.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Net Revenue. Net revenue decreased $2.2 million, or 19%, to $9.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009, primarily resulting from the cancellation of our contract with Sun Microsystems following Sun’s acquisition by Oracle in the first quarter of 2010. Net revenue from continuing client programs in the quarter ended June 30, 2010 was $8.3 million which excludes a one-time adjustment of $809,000 in net revenue and excludes revenue of $257,000 from the discontinuing Sun programs.

The following table shows the change in revenue by product line between the periods (in thousands):

Total

   $ 9,350    $ 11,534    $ (2,184   (18.9 )% 
                            

Our contract sales product line revenue decreased from the prior year primarily resulting from the cancellation of our contract with Sun Microsystems following Sun’s acquisition by Oracle in the first quarter of 2010. We have multiple agreements with Hewlett-Packard. On one of our programs, HP has decided to utilize our ecommerce technology and their internal staff for telesales. We expect our contract sales revenue from Hewlett-Packard to decrease as a result of this change going forward. Revenue from our lead development product line declined predominantly from the loss of the Sun Microsystems lead development contracts and decreases in revenues from existing clients as they reduced their marketing budgets due to the very difficult economy. These decreases were offset partially by revenues from several new clients in the period, approximately $700,000 in increased revenues from our Rainmaker Asia unit and the acquisition of Optima in the first quarter of 2010 which contributed approximately $600,000 in revenue during the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Revenue from our training sales product line decreased as compared to the prior year as a result of decreased revenue from existing clients.

Costs of Services and Gross Margin. Costs of services decreased $538,000, or 9%, to $5.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the 2009 comparative period. The decrease is attributable primarily to

reductions in our facilities costs and reductions in our telesales workforce related to declining sales across our product lines. Our gross margin percentage decreased to 39% in the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to 46% for the three months ended June 30, 2009, primarily as a result of a shift in the mix of our business during the quarter. We anticipate gross margin to remain in this range for the remainder of the year.

Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased $41,000, or 4%, to $1.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the 2009 comparative period. The decrease is primarily due to decreased sales commissions as a result of decreased sales. We expect sales and marketing expenses to decrease for the remainder of the year as compared to 2009 as the Company has reduced costs due to the challenging macroeconomic environment which has caused a slowdown in marketing spending by our customers.

Technology and Development Expenses. Technology and development expenses decreased $13,000, or 1%, to $2.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the 2009 comparative period. Decreases in personnel costs, were partially offset by increased consulting fees and outsourced services during the quarter ended June 30, 2010. We expect technology and development expenses to remain flat for the remainder of the year.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $294,000, or 13%, to $2.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to increases in personnel costs and increases in consulting fees and outsourced services during the three months ended June 30, 2010. The acquisition of Optima in the first quarter of 2010 contributed approximately $75,000 of the increase in the quarter ended June 30, 2010. We expect general and administrative expenses to be approximately flat for the remainder of the year as compared to 2009.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased $333,000, or 23%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the 2009 period. Depreciation expense decreased by approximately $230,000 in the 2010 period, primarily as a result of assets retired or written off during our 2009 fiscal year. A portion of these assets retired and written off relate to our facility changes in Manila and Austin during 2009. Amortization of acquisition related intangible assets decreased by approximately $102,000 in the 2010 period primarily due to intangible assets from our previous Sunset Direct and View Central acquisitions becoming fully amortized. We expect depreciation and amortization expense to be fairly flat to a slight increase as compared to the prior year for the remainder of 2010 as a result of our acquisitions of Grow Commerce in October 2009 and the acquisition of Optima Consulting Partners Limited in January 2010 and the depreciation and amortization of these acquired tangible and intangible assets.

Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net. The components of interest and other income (expense), net are as follows (in thousands):

   $ (91   $ 42      $ (133
                        

The decrease in interest income is attributable to the decrease in the interest rates paid on our interest bearing deposit accounts. Interest expense is the result of interest incurred on the Bridge Bank term-loan portion of our Revolving Credit Facility, and interest on the notes payable assumed in the Optima acquisition. We made principal payments on the Bridge Bank and Optima loans during the quarter ended June 30, 2010.

The currency translation loss is primarily due to the fluctuation of currency exchange rates on a note payable to third parties denominated in United States dollars that is owed by our European subsidiary in connection with our acquisition of Optima Consulting Partners Limited. Fluctuations of currency exchange rates may have a negative effect in future periods on our financial results.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense decreased $44,000, or 48%, to $48,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009. Our income tax expense for the three month period ended June 30, 2010, is based on our estimate of taxable income for the full year ending December 31, 2010, and primarily consists of estimates of foreign taxes and domestic gross margin taxes for certain states. We do not anticipate material changes to our implied effective tax rate for the year.

Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Net Revenue. Net revenue increased $262,000, or 1%, to $24.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009, primarily resulting from the receipt of a one-time settlement payment received during the 2010 fiscal year of approximately $4.6 million for a contract termination/buyout. Excluding the one-time settlement payment received in 2010, net revenue decreased $4.4 million, or 18%, as compared to the prior year. Net revenue from continuing client programs in the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $16.1 million which excludes a one-time adjustment of $809,000 in net revenue and excludes the contract buyout of $4.6 million and revenue of $2.6 million from the discontinuing Sun programs.

Our contract sales product line revenue increased from the prior year primarily resulting from the receipt of a one-time settlement payment of approximately $4.6 million during the first quarter of 2010 for a contract termination/buyout. Excluding this one-time settlement payment, contract sales revenue was approximately $9.1 million and decreased $1.6 million, or 15%, from the comparative 2009 period. Revenue from our lead development product line declined predominantly from decreases in revenues from existing clients as they reduced their marketing budgets due to the very difficult economy, offset partially by revenues from several new clients in the period, approximately $1.5 million in increased revenues from our Rainmaker Asia unit and the acquisition of Optima in the first quarter of 2010 which contributed approximately $1.1 million in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Revenue from our training sales product line decreased compared to the prior year as a result of decreased revenue from existing clients.

Costs of Services and Gross Margin. Costs of services decreased $1.5 million, or 11%, to $11.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the 2009 comparative period. The decrease is attributable primarily to reductions in our facilities costs and reductions in our telesales workforce related to declining sales across our product lines. Our gross margin percentage increased to 51% in the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to 44% for the six months ended June 30, 2009, primarily as a result of the $4.6 million one-time settlement payment received in the first quarter of 2010 with no associated costs, a shift in the mix of our business across product lines and lower costs as a result of cost reduction activities reducing our workforce.

Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased $421,000, or 17%, to $2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the 2009 comparative period. The decrease is primarily due to decreased personnel costs due to reductions in sales & marketing personnel, decreased commissions from reductions in sales, and decreases in severance costs.

Technology and Development Expenses. Technology and development expenses decreased $554,000, or 10%, to $4.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the 2009 comparative period. Decreases in personnel costs, were partially offset by increased consulting fees and outsourced services during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $145,000, or 3%, to $5.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to an increase in personnel costs from our Rainmaker Europe unit as a result of the acquisition of Optima in the first quarter of 2010.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased $876,000, or 28%, to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the 2009 period. Depreciation expense decreased by approximately $671,000 in the 2010 period, primarily as a result of assets retired or written off during our 2009 fiscal year. A portion of these assets retired and written off relate to our facility changes in Manila and Austin during 2009. Amortization of acquisition related intangible assets decreased by approximately $205,000 in the 2010 period primarily due to intangible assets from our previous Sunset Direct and View Central acquisitions becoming fully amortized.

The decrease in interest income is attributable to the decrease in the interest rates paid on our interest bearing deposit accounts. Interest expense is the result of interest incurred on the notes payable issued with the purchase of the assets of CAS Systems, interest incurred on the Bridge Bank term loan portion of our Revolving Credit Facility and interest on the notes payable assumed in the Optima acquisition. We paid off the CAS Systems notes payable and made principal payments on the Bridge Bank and Optima loans during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

The currency translation loss is primarily due to the fluctuation of currency exchange rates on notes payable to third parties denominated in United States dollars that were owed by our Canadian subsidiary in connection with our acquisition of CAS Systems and a note payable from our European subsidiary in connection with our acquisition of Optima Consulting Partners Limited. Fluctuations of currency exchange rates may have a negative effect in future periods on our financial results.

Based on information Rainmaker received on April 30, 2010 from a private company in which Rainmaker invested in 2007 in the form of a secured note and a minority equity investment, Rainmaker took a non-cash charge in the first quarter of 2010 for the carrying value of its minority equity investment of $740,000.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense decreased $33,000, or 19%, to $144,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. Our income tax expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, is based on our estimate of taxable income for the full year ending December 31, 2010, and primarily consists of estimates of foreign taxes and domestic gross margin taxes for certain states. We do not anticipate material changes to our implied effective tax rate for the year.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $1.7 million as compared to cash used in operating activities of $1.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Cash provided by operating activities in 2010 was primarily the result of net loss totaling $3.2 million, non-cash expenditures of depreciation and amortization of property and intangibles of $2.3 million, stock-based compensation charges of $1.5 million, the credit for the recovery of allowance for doubtful accounts of $68,000, write-down of investment of $740,000, and changes in operating assets and liabilities that provided $427,000 of cash for the year. Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2010, includes a one-time non-recurring settlement payment of $4.6 million received for a contract termination/buyout in the first quarter of 2010.

Cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily the result of a net loss totaling $5.8 million, non-cash expenditures of depreciation and amortization of property and intangibles of $3.1 million, stock-based compensation charges of $1.3 million, credit for the recovery of allowance for doubtful accounts of $332,000, and loss on disposal of fixed assets of $193,000.

The largest component of our changes in operating assets and liabilities is accounts receivable and accounts payable. When we sell a service or maintenance contract for a client, we record the sales price of the contract to the client’s customer as our receivable and also record our payable to the client for our cost of the contract, which is effectively the same amount less our compensation for obtaining the contract for our client. For this reason, our accounts payable includes amounts due to our clients for service and maintenance contracts we sold on their behalf.

Accounts receivable decreased by approximately $1.3 million at June 30, 2010 as compared to June 30, 2009 as a result of lower overall sales during 2010 as compared to 2009, excluding the one-time settlement payment received during the first quarter of 2010 for a contract termination/buyout. Our days sales outstanding, or DSO, increased to 37 days at June 30, 2010 as compared to 30 days at June 30, 2009. Since we record the gross billing to the end customer of our contract sales

Table of Contents

clients in our accounts receivable, we calculate DSO based on our ability to collect those gross billings from the end customers. We record revenue based on the net commission we retain.

Cash used in investing activities was $1.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to cash used by investing activities of $89,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2009. The change is primarily the result of increases in capital expenditures of approximately $1.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in 2009, an increase in the restricted cash balance of $6,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to a decrease in the restricted cash balance of approximately $877,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2009, and $492,000 paid in 2010 for the acquisition of Optima Consulting Partners Limited in January 2010. Restricted cash represents the reserve for the refunds due for non-service payments inadvertently paid to the Company by our clients’ customers instead of paid directly to the Company’s clients. At the time of cash receipt, the Company records a current liability for the amount of non-service payments received. These uses of cash in investing activities were partially offset by the repayment of a note receivable from Market2Lead during the second quarter of 2010.

Cash used in financing activities was approximately $90,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to cash used in financing activities of $1.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Cash used in financing activities in 2010 was primarily a result of $1.2 million in net borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility with Bridge Bank which was offset by principal payments of $686,000 on our CAS notes and Optima term note, payments on our capital lease obligations of $240,000, purchases of treasury stock under Company announced share repurchase plans of $73,000, and purchases of $247,000 of treasury stock from employees for shares withheld for income taxes payable on restricted stock awards vested during the six months ended June 30, 2010. Cash used in financing activities in the 2009 period was primarily a result of principal payments of $658,000 on our CAS Systems notes, net repayments on our Revolving Credit Facility of $530,000, payments on our capital lease obligations of $226,000, purchases of treasury stock under Company announced share repurchase plans of $141,000, and purchases of $129,000 of treasury stock from employees for shares withheld for income taxes payable on restricted stock awards vested during the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Our principal source of liquidity as of June 30, 2010 consisted of $15.4 million of cash and cash equivalents. We anticipate that our existing capital resources will enable us to maintain our current level of operations, our planned operations, our planned capital expenditures and debt repayments for at least the next twelve months.

Credit Arrangements

In October 2008, we executed further amendments to our secured revolving line of credit (the Revolving Credit Facility) with Bridge Bank. The amendments extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from October 10, 2008 to October 10, 2009 and increased the maximum amount of revolving credit available from $4,000,000 to $6,000,000, with a $1,000,000 sub-facility for standby letters of credit and a new $3,000,000 sub-facility for the purpose of purchasing new equipment until December 31, 2008. Advances under the equipment finance sub-facility were being repaid in equal monthly installments that commenced in January 2009 and were to continue through October 2011. On December 3, 2009, we executed a further amendment to the Revolving Credit Facility. The amendment extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from October 10, 2009 to October 10, 2010. The maximum amount of revolving credit available to the Company remains at $6,000,000, with a $1,000,000 existing sub-facility for standby letters of credit, and a $3.5 million maximum sub-facility that is a combination of the equipment finance sub-facility and the term loan line which could be used for any borrowings until March 10, 2010. The interest rate per annum for revolving advances under the Revolving Credit Facility is equal to the greater of (i) 3.5%, or (ii) one quarter of one percent (0.25%) above the prime lending rate, currently at 4.5%. The interest rate per annum for advances under the equipment finance sub-facility and the term loan line is equal to a fixed rate of 6.0%. In accordance with the amended Revolving Credit Facility, any advances made under the term loan line were combined with the existing equipment sub-facility advances outstanding on March 31, 2010, and were re-amortized and payable in thirty six (36) equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued interest, beginning on April 10, 2010, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter through March 31, 2013, at which time all amounts owed, if any, shall be immediately due and payable. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had $3,095,000 outstanding under the equipment finance sub-facility and term loan line and had one undrawn letter of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility in the aggregate face amount of $100,000. The $3.1 million in term loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility is currently being paid in equal monthly installments of approximately $94,000 through March 2013.

The amended Revolving Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of Rainmaker’s consolidated assets including intellectual property. Rainmaker must comply with certain financial covenants, including not incurring a quarterly non-GAAP profit or loss negatively exceeding by more than 10% the amount of the non-GAAP profit or loss recited in the Company’s operating plan approved by Bridge Bank and maintaining unrestricted cash with Bridge Bank equal to the greater of $2.0 million or the principal amount of the indebtedness from time to time outstanding with Bridge Bank. The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary covenants that will, subject to limited exceptions, limit our ability to, among other things, (i) create liens; (ii) make capital expenditures; (iii) pay cash dividends; and (iv) merge or consolidate with another company.

The Revolving Credit Facility also provides for customary events of default, including nonpayment, breach of covenants, payment defaults of other indebtedness, and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization that may result in acceleration of outstanding amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, we did not meet the performance to plan financial covenant and we received a waiver from Bridge Bank for this violation. We were in compliance with all other loan covenants. In the quarter ending September 30, 2010, we will again be subject to the performance to plan financial covenant provision of the Revolving Credit Facility based on the revised forecast that will be provided to Bridge Bank in August 2010.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Leases

As of June 30, 2010, our off-balance sheet arrangements include operating leases for our facilities and certain property and equipment that expire at various dates through 2013. These arrangements allow us to obtain the use of the equipment and facilities without purchasing them. If we were to acquire these assets, we would be required to obtain financing and record a liability related to the financing of these assets. Leasing these assets under operating leases allows us to use these assets for our business while minimizing the obligations and up front cash flow related to purchasing the assets.

In October 2009, we executed a second amendment to the operating lease for our corporate headquarters in Campbell, California to reduce our lease cost. Under this amendment, we reduced the amount of space that we lease by 6,719 square feet to 16,430 square feet starting October 1, 2009, and reduced our lease cost per square foot by approximately 18%. We obtained a first right of refusal to the reduced space (6,719 square feet). The lease term originally began on November 1, 2005 and, after the first amendment, was set to end on January 31, 2010. Under this second amendment, the lease will expire on January 31, 2013. Annual gross rent under the amended lease increases from approximately $227,000 in the first year of the lease which ends September 30, 2010, and the base rent will increase by approximately 5% each year thereafter for the remaining term expiring January 31, 2013. In addition, we will continue to pay our proportionate share of operating costs and taxes based on our occupancy and the original letter of credit issued to the landlord in the amount of $100,000 for a security deposit will remain in place.

In Austin, Texas we signed a new lease for approximately 21,388 square feet of space that commenced on June 16, 2009 for a term of 18.5 months through December 31, 2010. Annual rent in the new facility will approximate $205,000, or $17,000 monthly. In both the California and the Texas facilities, we pay rent and maintenance on some of the common areas in each of our leased facilities.

For our Canadian call center operations, we entered into a lease renewal as of January 1, 2008 for a 2-year term with options for subsequent continuance. The provisions of the lease renewal in Canada specified that either party could terminate the lease for any reason by giving the other party at least 120 days prior written notice. In 2008, the Company decided to terminate the lease in Canada and provided the landlord the specified 120 day notice as of October 1, 2008 in accordance with the lease agreement. On September 24, 2008, we entered into a new agreement to lease approximately 20,000 square feet of space and have moved our current Canadian operations to this new location which is closer to Montreal and provides more access to employees allowing for more growth. The lease has a minimum term of three years and commenced on January 1, 2009. Annual gross rent is $400,000 Canadian dollars for the initial 3-year term. Based on the exchange rate at June 30, 2010, annual rent will approximate $382,000. Additionally, Rainmaker will be responsible for its proportionate share of utilities, taxes and other common area maintenance charges during the lease term.

With our acquisition of Qinteraction, we assumed existing lease obligations at their Manila, Philippines offices. We assumed two office space leases and a parking lease. We occupy approximately 40,280 square feet on three floors in the BPI building in Manila. Our current lease for this space commenced on April 1, 2008, has a 5-year term and terminates on March 31, 2013. Based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2010, our annual base rent will escalate from approximately $572,000 for the twelve months ended June 30, 2011 to $642,000 for the 2012 calendar year, the final full year of the lease that ends in March 2013. During 2008 and the three months ended March 31, 2009, we amended and then terminated our lease in the Pacific Star building and we currently do not occupy any space in this building. Our parking lease began in March 2006, has a 5-year term, terminates in March 2011 and has monthly payments of less than $1,000. We have recently executed a lease for approximately 15,852 square feet of call center space in the Alphaland Southgate Tower in Makati City. The lease commenced on May 1, 2010, has a 3-year term and terminates on April 30, 2013. Based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2010, and the free and discounted base rent included in the lease agreement, our annual base rent will approximate $203,000 for the twelve months ended June 30, 2011, and increase to approximately $219,000 in the final year of the lease.

With our acquisition of Optima Consulting Partners Limited in January 2010, we assumed office leases in the United Kingdom, Germany and France where we have call center and sales operations. In the quarter ended March 31, 2010, we consolidated our existing Rainmaker Europe operations in the United Kingdom in Optima’s office and terminated our

existing month-to-month lease in London effective March 31, 2010. In the United Kingdom, we have leased space in Godalming outside of London. This lease commenced in November 2009, has a 3-year term and terminates in October 2012. Our annual base rent for this facility is 80,000 Great Britain Pounds and based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2010, will approximate $121,000 per year. In Germany we have leased space in Munich and Frankfurt. These leases are on month–to-month terms and can be terminated with three months notice. Monthly base rent on the Munich office space is 550 Euros and monthly base rent on the Frankfurt office is 750 Euros. Based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2010, monthly base rent approximates $700 in Munich and $1,000 in Frankfurt. In France, we have current leased space in Nanterre outside of Paris that commenced in June 2010, has a 1-year term and expires in May 2011. Monthly base rent under the new lease is 4,000 Euros per month. Based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2010, monthly base rent approximates $5,000.

Rent expense, net of sub-lease income, under operating lease agreements during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was $814,000 and $1.0 million, respectively. The 2009 rent expense was net of approximately $56,000 in sublease revenue from our previous Austin property.

Guarantees

In July 2005, we issued an irrevocable standby letter of credit in the amount of $100,000 to our landlord for a security deposit for our new corporate headquarters located in Campbell, California. The letter of credit was issued under the Revolving Credit Facility described above. As of June 30, 2010, no amounts had been drawn against the letter of credit.

From time to time, we enter into certain types of contracts that contingently require us to indemnify parties against third party claims. These obligations primarily relate to certain agreements with our officers, directors and employees, under which we may be required to indemnify such persons for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship, and to certain customer contracts. The terms of such obligations vary. Generally, a maximum obligation is not explicitly stated. Because the obligated amounts of these types of agreements often are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligations cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, we have not had to make any payments for these obligations, and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations on our balance sheets as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Contractual Obligations

Capital Leases

In March 2008, we entered into a 3-year software licensing agreement with Microsoft GP. In accordance with the terms of the agreement, we will pay three annual installments of approximately $254,000 beginning in April 2008 for the licensing rights to use certain Microsoft software. The present value of the future lease payments is included as a liability on the balance sheet as a current lease obligation as of December 31, 2009. We made the final payment on this lease in the first quarter of 2010.

Term Loans

In connection with our acquisition of the assets of CAS Systems and its Canadian subsidiary, Rainmaker and its Canadian subsidiary, Rainmaker Systems (Canada) Inc., issued notes payable in the amounts of $1.4 million and $600,000, respectively. The two notes are payable in three consecutive annual installments of approximately $467,000 and $200,000, respectively, each, commencing on January 25, 2008, with subsequent installments payable on the anniversary date in 2009 and 2010. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.36% per annum on the outstanding principal amount which is payable at the end of each calendar quarter. The first and second annual installments of these notes in the aggregate amount of $667,000 each were paid in January 2008 and 2009. The final installment of approximately $667,000 was paid in January 2010.

In accordance with the Revolving Credit Facility, advances under the equipment finance sub-facility were previously being repaid in equal monthly installments commencing in January 2009 through October 2011. At March 31, 2010, we had a principal balance of $1.9 million outstanding under the equipment finance sub-facility that was being repaid in equal monthly installments of approximately $88,000. In December 2009, we executed a further amendment to our Revolving Credit Facility that extended the maturity date from October 10, 2009 to October 10, 2010. The maximum amount of revolving credit available to the Company remains at $6,000,000, with a $1,000,000 existing sub-facility for standby letters of credit, and a $3.5 million maximum sub-facility that is a combination of the equipment finance sub-facility and the term loan line which could be used for any borrowings until March 10, 2010. The interest rate per annum for revolving advances under the Revolving Credit Facility is equal to the greater of (i) 3.5%, or (ii) one quarter of one percent (0.25%) above the prime lending rate, currently at 4.5%. The interest rate per annum for advances under the equipment finance sub-facility and the term loan line is equal to a fixed rate of 6.0%. In accordance with the amended Revolving Credit Facility, any advances made under the term loan line were combined with the existing equipment sub-facility advances outstanding on March 31, 2010, and were re-amortized and payable in thirty six (36) equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued interest, beginning on April 10, 2010, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter through March 31,

2013, at which time all amounts owed, if any, shall be immediately due and payable. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had $3,095,000 outstanding under the equipment finance sub-facility and term loan line and had one undrawn letter of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility in the aggregate face amount of $100,000. The $3.1 million in term loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility is currently being paid in equal monthly installments of approximately $94,000 through March 2013.

On January 29, 2010, our wholly-owned subsidiary Rainmaker Europe entered into and closed a stock purchase agreement for Optima Consulting Partners Limited (“Optima”). In accordance with this agreement, we entered into a note payable for $350,000 payable in two installments with $200,000 plus accrued interest due eighteen months from the closing date and $150,000 plus accrued interest due twenty four months after the closing date. Interest rate on the note payable is 0.4% per year and we have recorded the present value of the note payable, discounted over 2 years at a rate of 6.2%. The resulting discount on note payable will be amortized straight-line over the two year term of the note.

Additionally in connection with the Optima acquisition, we assumed an existing note payable to Barclays Bank in the amount of 77,788 Great Britain Pounds (“GBP”) as of the closing date of the acquisition. The note bears interest at 4.25% per year over the lender’s base rate and is currently 4.75% as of June 30, 2010. The note will be payable in monthly principal installments of approximately 2,800 GBP through May 2012. Using the exchange rate at June 30, 2010, the current note payable balance is approximately $97,000 and the monthly payment approximates $4,000.

Revolving Credit Facility

In October 2008, we executed further amendments to our secured revolving line of credit (the Revolving Credit Facility) with Bridge Bank. The amendments extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from October 10, 2008 to October 10, 2009 and increased the maximum amount of revolving credit available from $4,000,000 to $6,000,000, with a $1,000,000 sub-facility for standby letters of credit and a new $3,000,000 sub-facility for the purpose of purchasing new equipment until December 31, 2008. Advances under the equipment finance sub-facility were being repaid in equal monthly installments that commenced in January 2009 and were to continue through October 2011. On December 3, 2009, we executed a further amendment to the Revolving Credit Facility. The amendment extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from October 10, 2009 to October 10, 2010. The maximum amount of revolving credit available to the Company remains at $6,000,000, with a $1,000,000 existing sub-facility for standby letters of credit, and a $3.5 million maximum sub-facility that is a combination of the equipment finance sub-facility and the term loan line which could be used for any borrowings until March 10, 2010. The interest rate per annum for revolving advances under the Revolving Credit Facility is equal to the greater of (i) 3.5%, or (ii) one quarter of one percent (0.25%) above the prime lending rate, currently at 4.5%. The interest rate per annum for advances under the equipment finance sub-facility and the term loan line is equal to a fixed rate of 6.0%. In accordance with the amended Revolving Credit Facility, any advances made under the term loan line were combined with the existing equipment sub-facility advances outstanding on March 31, 2010, and were re-amortized and payable in thirty six (36) equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued interest, beginning on April 10, 2010, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter through March 31, 2013, at which time all amounts owed, if any, shall be immediately due and payable. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had $3,095,000 outstanding under the equipment finance sub-facility and term loan line and had one undrawn letter of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility in the aggregate face amount of $100,000. The $3.1 million in term loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility is currently being paid in equal monthly installments of approximately $94,000 through March 2013.

Potential Impact of Inflation

To date, inflation has not had a material impact on our business.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-13, which amends ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, to require companies to allocate revenue in multiple-element arrangements based on an element’s estimated selling price if vendor-specific or other third-party evidence of value is not available. ASU 2009-13 is effective beginning January 1, 2011. Earlier application is permitted. We are currently evaluating both the timing and the impact of the pending adoption of the ASU on our consolidated financial statements and we don’t expect it to have a material impact.

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-01, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“ASC” or “Codification”). The Codification is the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied to nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification does not change current GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative

GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents are superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the Codification is considered nonauthoritative. The Codification is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. We have made the appropriate changes to GAAP references in our financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855, Subsequent Events, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. In February of 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 855), Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. This amendment to Topic 855 eliminates the requirement that an SEC filer disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements. The ASU does not change the requirement that SEC filers evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued. We adopted the provisions of ASC 855 in the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
