Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011

(Unaudited)

 

1. Nature of Business

GlobalSCAPE, Inc. (“GlobalSCAPE” or the “Company”) provides secure information exchange capabilities for consumers and enterprises through the development and sale of software, delivery of managed and hosted solutions, provision of maintenance and support, and professional services. Since our organization in 1996, we have evolved from a company focused primarily on personal file transfer products, sold over the Internet, to a solution provider deriving over 90 percent of revenue from sales to small and medium business and enterprise customers worldwide.

We operate primarily in the Managed File Transfer, or MFT, industry. Our MFT products ensure the delivery and privacy of critical information such as financial data, medical records, customer files and other similar sensitive documents, including multi-gigabyte and even multi-terabyte files. In addition, these products ensure compliance with many government and commercial regulations relating to the protection of information while allowing users to reduce IT costs, increase efficiency, track and audit transactions and automate processes. Since 2008, we have added managed e-mail attachment, software-as-a-service (“SaaS”), and cloud-based subscription offerings to our solution portfolio. Our managed e-mail attachment solution addresses the needs of customers who are constrained by the typical limits on e-mail attachment size or who require additional security, auditing, and reporting for file attachments shared through e-mail. Our SaaS and cloud-based subscription solutions allow customers to reduce their upfront and total cost of ownership and achieve other recognized benefits of cloud-based solutions, including service elasticity and strong service level agreements for IT infrastructure reliability and performance.

We are continuing our evolution from an ‘MFT company’ into adjacent solution spaces applicable to Total Path Security. The Total Path Security framework addresses data and information security in motion (for example, with traditional MFT solutions delivered as on-premises software or cloud services) and at rest (for example, with endpoint security and data recovery solutions like appShield and CuteBackup, respectively).

During the first half of 2011, we announced development of a consumer “whitelisting” solution (appShield) designed to defeat malicious software applications by allowing only designated applications and executables (i.e., those on the “whitelist”) to run on protected systems. The appShield solution continues in the development and testing phases of the software development lifecycle, with release now planned for 2012. We also announced development of CuteBackup in the first half of 2011. The CuteBackup software is a data backup and recovery product aimed at helping consumers and small business owners avoid a data loss catastrophe. CuteBackup became available for download and purchase in July 2011. While entering adjacent solution spaces, we continue to develop and maintain our file transfer solutions. For example, in September 2011, we released a major update of our Wide Area File Services (“WAFS”) software that securely replicates and synchronizes files across different geographic locations. Major updates of our solutions deliver enhancements in accordance with our solution roadmap and also allow us to best support our substantial install base of customers who have purchased our maintenance and support services.

 

2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, “Interim Financial Statements.” Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required under generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normally recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been made. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations also included in our 2010 Form 10-K and in this Report.

Table of Contents

The Company follows accounting standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, commonly referred to as the “FASB.” The FASB sets generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) that the Company follows to ensure we consistently report our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes in our significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from those described in our 2010 Form 10-K. Listed below is a condensed version of the Company’s critical accounting policies.

Revenue Recognition – The Company markets and distributes software products and also offers hosted and managed solutions as well as professional services; revenue is recognized when the following conditions have been met:

 

   

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

 

   

Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;

 

   

Fixed or determinable amount

 

   

Collection is reasonably assured

If the Company determines that any one of the four criteria is not met, we will defer recognition of revenue until all the criteria are met.

License revenue is derived primarily from the licensing of various products and technology. Generally, license revenue is recognized upon delivery of the product, assuming all other conditions for revenue recognition noted above have been met.

The Company also enters into perpetual software license agreements through direct sales to customers and indirect sales with distributors and resellers. The license agreements generally include product maintenance and support agreements, for which the related revenue is deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the agreements. In any given period if the amount of revenue that is deferred, which is equal to the total of that period’s maintenance and support sales, is greater than the amount recognized, then revenue will decrease over time and vice versa.

In arrangements that include multiple elements, including perpetual software licenses and maintenance and/or services, revenue is allocated and deferred for the undelivered items based on vendor-specific-objective evidence (“VSOE”). When VSOE of fair value exists for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, revenue is allocated to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements. VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when the same element is sold separately. In a multiple element arrangement whereby VSOE of fair value of all undelivered elements exists but VSOE of fair value does not exist for one or more delivered elements, revenue is recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue, assuming collection is probable. Deferred revenue consists primarily of the unamortized balance of product maintenance.

We recognize hosted and managed solutions revenue over the contractual term of the customer contract. We believe our customers generally will continue to utilize our services beyond the initial contract term which typically ranges from one to three years. As a result, initial setup fees are recognized ratably over the estimated average life of a customer relationship. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and either deferred revenue or revenue, depending on whether the revenue recognition criteria have been met.

 

7


Table of Contents

We recognize professional services revenue as the services are performed and those services are accepted by our customers. Notice of customer acceptance typically is received in writing after customers receive the contracted deliverables. In some cases, we may recognize professional services revenue without written acceptance if the contract provides for deemed acceptance after some period of time has elapsed since delivery of the services.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – We regularly assess the collectability of outstanding customer invoices and, in so doing, we maintain an allowance for estimated losses resulting from the non-collection of customer receivables. In estimating this allowance, we consider factors such as: historical collection experience; a customer’s current creditworthiness; customer concentration; age of the receivable balance; and general economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. Actual customer collections could differ from our estimates.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets – Goodwill and certain indefinite-lived assets are not amortized, but are evaluated at least annually for impairment. The determination of whether the carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets has been impaired requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions about future business trends and growth. If an event occurs that would cause the Company to revise its estimates and assumptions used in analyzing the value of goodwill or other intangibles, such revision could result in an impairment charge that could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Income Taxes The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Accruals for uncertain tax positions are provided for in accordance with FASB guidance.

 

3. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As of September 30, 2011, GlobalSCAPE had goodwill of approximately $619,000 associated with the acquisition of Availl, Inc. in 2006. No events occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 that would have been considered a triggering event under current accounting guidance and require an impairment test as of that date.

Intangible assets represent amounts acquired in the acquisition of Availl, and consisted of the following as of September 30, 2011 (in thousands):

 

     Gross

Acquired intangibles are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over their weighted average lives. Intangible assets amortization expense was approximately $226,000 for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010. No events occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 that would have caused the Company to evaluate the need to record an impairment.

Accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not an assumption specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk, including our own credit risk.

The Company’s investments currently consist of an investment in a software company, which is accounted for under the cost method. The current carrying amount of this cost method investment is approximately $2.3 million. The Company believes that the carrying amount approximates fair value and has not evaluated it for impairment as there have been no indicators that would suggest the value of the investment has declined below cost.

Accounts receivable and accounts payable are reflected in the accompanying financial statements, at cost, which approximate fair value because of their short term maturity.

 

5. Stock-Based Compensation

GlobalSCAPE has stock-based compensation plans available to grant incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, and restricted stock to employees and non-employee members of the Board of Directors.

Approximately $792,000 and $756,000 of compensation cost related to stock options and restricted stock awards were recognized in operating results in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The GlobalSCAPE, Inc. 2010 Employee Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (“2010 EIP”) authorizes the issuance of up to three million shares of common stock for stock-based incentives including stock options and restricted stock awards. The exercise price, term and other conditions applicable to each stock option or stock award granted under the 2010 EIP are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The exercise price of stock options is set on the grant date and may not be less than the fair market value per share of our stock on that date (at market close). The stock options will expire after ten years.

Stock Options

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of GlobalSCAPE stock. We used the simplified method to derive an expected term. The expected term represents an estimate of the time options are expected to remain outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The following table sets forth the assumptions used to determine compensation cost for our stock options consistent with the requirements established by FASB:

8. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company from time to time may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of its ordinary course of business.

GlobalSCAPE has been named as one of a number of defendants in two different patent infringement suits. The first was filed by Content Delivery Solutions LLC in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas Austin Division. The complaint alleges that GlobalSCAPE infringed on a patent that addresses products or services for resuming interrupted transmission of a file over a network. The second was filed by Achates Reference Publishing, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas Marshall Division. The complaint alleges that GlobalSCAPE infringed on a patent that addresses product activation functionality. Both of these matters have just been brought forth and, while GlobalSCAPE believes that it has meritorious defenses to both plaintiffs’ claims and intends to defend the lawsuits vigorously, it is early in its process and it is not possible to reasonably determine the outcome of these suits. Accordingly, it is not possible at this time to assess whether or not we need to reserve for potential settlements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. “Forward looking statements” are those statements that describe management’s beliefs and expectations about the future. We have identified forward-looking statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “may,” “expect,” and “intend.” Although we believe these expectations are reasonable, our operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including those described in the “Risk Factors” section of our 2010 Form 10-K and other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. GlobalSCAPE’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in any forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report.

Overview

Our solutions provide secure information exchange capabilities for consumers and enterprises through the sale of software licenses, delivery of managed and hosted solutions, provision of maintenance and support, and professional services. Since our organization in 1996, we have evolved from a company focused primarily on personal file transfer products, sold over the Internet, to a solution provider deriving over 90 percent of revenue from sales to small and medium business, or SMB, and enterprise customers worldwide.

We operate primarily in the Managed File Transfer, or MFT, industry. Our MFT products ensure the privacy of critical information such as financial data, medical records, customer files and other similar sensitive documents. In addition, these products ensure compliance with many government and commercial regulations relating to the protection of information while allowing users to reduce IT costs, increase efficiency, track and audit transactions and automate processes. Since 2008, we have added managed e-mail attachment, software-as-a-service (“SaaS”), and cloud-based subscription offerings to our solution portfolio. Our managed e-mail attachment solution addresses the needs of customers who are constrained by the typical limits on e-mail attachment size or who require additional security, auditing, and reporting for file attachments shared through e-mail. Our SaaS and cloud-based subscription solutions allow customers to reduce their upfront and total cost of ownership and achieve other recognized benefits of cloud-based solutions, including service elasticity and strong service level agreements for IT infrastructure reliability and performance.

We are continuing our evolution from an “MFT company” into adjacent solution spaces applicable to Total Path Security. The Total Path Security framework addresses data and information security in motion (for example, with traditional MFT solutions delivered as on-premises software or as a cloud service) and at rest (for example, with endpoint security and data recovery solutions like appShield and CuteBackup, respectively).

During the first half of 2011, we announced development of a consumer “whitelisting” solution (appShield) designed to defeat malicious software applications by allowing only designated applications and executables (i.e., those on the “whitelist”), to run on protected systems. The appShield solution continues in the development and testing phases of the software development lifecycle, with release now planned for 2012. We also announced development of CuteBackup in the first half of 2011. The CuteBackup software is a data backup and recovery product aimed at helping consumers and small business owners avoid a data loss catastrophe. CuteBackup became available for download and purchase in July 2011.

While entering adjacent solution spaces, we continue to develop and maintain our file transfer solutions. For example, in September 2011, we released a major update of our Wide Area File Services (“WAFS”) software that securely replicates and synchronizes files across different geographic locations. Major updates of our solutions deliver enhancements in accordance with our solution roadmap and also allow us to best support our substantial install base of customers who have purchased our maintenance and support services.

Key Business Metrics

As described in our 2010 Form 10-K, we review a number of key business metrics on an ongoing basis to help us monitor our performance and to identify material trends which may affect our business. The measures that we believe are the primary indicators of our performance are:

 

   

Revenue Growth;

 

   

Sales and Sales Pipeline Growth;

 

   

Recurring Revenue Growth; and

 

   

EBITDA.

Our 2010 Form 10-K provides our perspective on these key business metrics. The Outlook section and Comparison of the Three Months and Nine Months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, below, provide updates on revenue and recurring revenue growth, as well as related sales developments.

Revenue Growth. As detailed below in the discussion of our results of operations, revenue grew by $648,000, or approximately 14%, during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 versus the same period in 2010. This overall revenue growth primarily was the result of increased professional services revenue, which grew by $339,000 (or 339%) for the quarter, product license revenue, which grew by $196,000 (or 7.4%), and maintenance and support revenue which increased by $105,000 (or 6%) for the same period. The growth in professional services revenue was driven largely by $308,000 in revenue earned as a subcontractor on the McLane Advanced Technologies (MAT) industry team that was awarded the $52.3 million re-compete contract for the US Army Standard Army Maintenance System – Enhanced (SAMS-E) in September 2010. The increase in product license revenue primarily was a result of continued growth in sales of the Enhanced File Transfer Server solution suite. Maintenance and support revenue continued to grow primarily through bundling of maintenance and support contracts with new software licenses for enterprise solutions such as the Enhanced File Transfer Server suite and through renewal of prior maintenance and support contracts. On the strength of our revenue growth, we were named to Software Magazine’s Software 500 ranking of the world’s largest software and service providers. The Software 500 is a revenue-based ranking of software and services suppliers targeting medium to large enterprises, their IT professionals, software developers, and business managers involved in software and services purchasing. The ranking is based on total worldwide software and services revenue for 2010, including revenue from software licenses, maintenance and support, training and software-related services and consulting.

Sales and Sales Pipeline Growth. We continued to experience sales and sales pipeline growth during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 versus the same period in 2010. As we increase sales of our subscription services, and pursue opportunities with larger deal sizes, we believe our sales and sales pipeline growth will remain a key indicator of our potential to deliver increased revenue in future periods.

Recurring Revenue Growth. Recurring revenue continued to grow during the third quarter as compared to the same period in 2010. As stated in our 2010 Form 10-K, we believe that an increase in deferred revenues indicates both growth in our installed base and satisfaction with our products and our maintenance and support services. We derived $2.0 million, or 37% of our revenue during the quarter, from maintenance and support contracts. This represents an increase of 6% compared to the $1.9 million recognized from maintenance and support contracts during the same period in 2010. In addition, we recognized recurring revenue during the quarter from our subscription-based hosted and managed solutions. Monthly recurring revenue from these solutions now exceeds the associated infrastructure costs, another key proof point of the future leverage inherent in our subscription services. At September 30, 2011, our deferred revenue balance was $7.2 million, which included short term deferred revenue of $5.9 million and long term deferred revenue of $1.3 million. This was an increase of $1.1 million, or approximately 18%, over the balance at September 30, 2010. This growth represents a combination of increased maintenance and support sales (including renewals), deferred revenue from professional services engagements invoiced (and, in many cases, paid) but not yet delivered, and growing sales of our hosted and managed solutions. Maintenance and support and professional services revenue, together, accounted for approximately $2.4 million, or 44%, of our total revenue, up from $2.0 million, or 43% of our total revenue during the same period in 2010.

EBITDA. EBITDA or Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization, is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and should not be considered a substitute for net income. We define EBITDA as Net Income, plus Income Taxes, Total Other Income (Expense), Depreciation and Amortization, and non-cash charges for asset impairments.

Table of Contents

EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and when assessing our operating performance, EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for net income or other income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. See our EBITDA to net income reconciliations in the table below. As shown in the table, EBITDA increased to $705,000 in the third quarter, compared to $469,000 during the same period in 2010, an increase of 50%. The increase in EBITDA was the result of substantially increased revenue in the third quarter, compared to the same period a year ago, and continued close management of fixed operating expenses.

Products and Solutions

The following is a brief description of our products and solutions:

Managed File Transfer Solutions — Our MFT solutions are best known for the CuteFTP product line. They primarily consist of products that help users securely move and copy files on the Internet. FTP, along with more secure protocols such as SFTP, FTP/S, and HTTP/S, requires two software programs: a client program to start a transfer and a server program to accept the connection. Our MFT product line includes CuteFTP Pro, CuteFTP Home, CuteFTP Lite, CuteFTP Mac, and Enhanced File Transfer Server. A substantial portion of our revenues is derived from licensing our file management products, especially Enhanced File Transfer Server. We have continued to develop new versions of Enhanced File Transfer Server that, for example, delivers additional security and visibility features, along with improved workflow tools. Other recent enhancements in Enhanced File Transfer Server include industry-leading two-factor authentication, real-time visibility into all ongoing file transfers passing through the server, integration with Microsoft® SharePoint® Server, improved worldwide scalability with UTF-8 encoding, an enhanced user experience for browser-based access, and simplified corporate branding and customization.

Wide-Area File Services and Continuous Data Protection Solutions — Our Wide Area File Services, or WAFS, software is a true wide area file solution that enables accelerated collaboration across multiple sites, while reducing network bandwidth requirements. With WAFS software, customers can implement instant file-sharing and server-to-server mirroring across multiple sites, with full coherency at near-LAN access speeds. Continuous, real-time multi-directional acceleration and mirroring technology ensures that data exists in multiple places simultaneously and in complete synchronization, no matter where a change in any file is made. The data is mirrored between servers on the LAN, virtual private network, or across firewalls in real time, with full support for file locking ensuring coherency.

Table of Contents

Our WAFS product ensures bandwidth-efficient WAN utilization, and that users have access to the most recent data. WAFS technology can have our Continuous Data Protection, or CDP, product added to it to provide enterprises with a file access and data protection combination that centralizes data storage and IT administration facilities without compromising data sharing and protection. As files change, file servers backup in real time to the customer’s backup site which can be at the same or a remote location. The backup server can keep any number of past versions of each file (and deleted files) which gives the customer immediate restore, as well as the ability to perform point-in-time snapshots. During September of 2011, we released Version 4 of our WAFS software. This new version of WAFS features improved support for current Windows operating systems, a redesigned and intuitive user interface, and enhanced international support with full compatibility for Unicode character sets which are encountered more frequently in international sales opportunities. WAFS now also includes Local Sync, a new feature that allows users to rapidly synchronize data while also simplifying implementation.

Managed E-mail Attachment Solution — Our managed e-mail attachment solution, Mail Express, addresses the needs of businesses that prefer to use their legacy e-mail infrastructure to deliver and manage e-mail attachments. E-mail traditionally has been ill-suited for delivery of certain attachments due to typical infrastructure and administrator-defined limitations on e-mail attachment size. In many cases, these limitations preclude sending or receiving e-mail attachments larger than even 10 or 20 MB. The Mail Express solution is a software add-in (also sometimes referred to as a plug-in) compatible with Microsoft Outlook. The add-in transparently redirects e-mail attachments, up to 25 GB in size, for delivery in accordance with administrator-defined policies. Mail Express also supports communication through the GlobalSCAPE DMZ Gateway. The DMZ Gateway support allows customers to implement Mail Express behind a DMZ firewall which provides an added layer of protection for data storage and retrieval, user authentication, and firewall traversal. The latest version of Mail Express also includes an internal web portal. The portal provides full Mail Express functionality via a standard web browser to customer employees who may not use Microsoft Outlook as their primary mail client. The portal also allows approved partners to send large files back to Mail Express users, ensuring the files and data remain secure at all times. Other key features of the newest version of Mail Express include support for Microsoft Outlook and Exchange 2010, improved performance and optimization when interacting with anti-virus software, and increased capacity and number of users per Mail Express server, supporting the growing demands of larger enterprises.

Endpoint Security Solution — During the first quarter of 2011, we announced ongoing development of appShield, a consumer endpoint security solution to protect computers against the rapid growth of viruses and other malicious software. The appShield solution is based on proven enterprise-level application whitelisting technology from CoreTrace Corporation, the recognized leader in dynamic and client-based application whitelisting. Unlike traditional “blacklisting” solutions, such as antivirus software, that attempt to detect and remove infected files and applications running on a computer, whitelisting allows users to lock servers, personal computers, and other devices into a known, trusted state and allows only approved applications to run. By ensuring that only approved applications can run, appShield automatically blocks unauthorized applications—including viruses and rogue applications that may have been inadvertently downloaded from email, websites, or social media, for example. The appShield solution continues in the development and testing phases of the software development lifecycle. We have delayed the release of appShield into 2012 to address feedback obtained earlier during testing and evaluation.

Data Backup and Recovery Solution — In the second quarter of 2011, we announced development of CuteBackup, a data backup and recovery software solution for the consumer and SMB markets. CuteBackup is powered by Paragon Software Group’s Backup and Recovery 10 Suite. The CuteBackup product became available for download and purchase in July 2011, as part of our roadmap for developing and integrating solutions consistent with our previously communicated Total Path Security framework.

Maintenance and Support —We offer maintenance and support, or M&S, contracts for all of our software products. These M&S contracts entitle the licensee to software upgrades and technical support services in accordance with the terms of our M&S contract. Standard technical support services are provided via e-mail and telephone during our regular business hours. Optionally, for Enhanced File Transfer Server Enterprise and WAFS software, we also offer a Platinum M&S contract which provides access to emergency technical assistance 24 hours-a-day, 7 days-a-week.

GlobalSCAPE Managed Solutions — Through a partner agreement with Rackspace Hosting, Inc., we deliver cloud-based managed file transfer solutions for the secure exchange of business-to-business data, including large files and sensitive data. These subscription-based solutions include hosted and fully-managed offerings tailored for the

SMB market and large enterprises. Our Managed Information Xchange, or MIX, service is a GlobalSCAPE-managed solution for companies seeking complete support for the contracted services. The tiered service, delivered through Rackspace’s infrastructure, allows customers to outsource all or part of their complex and demanding information exchange needs to reduce costs, improve operational efficiencies, track and audit transactions, and provide a greater level of security. Available solution tiers range from trial and proof-of-concept implementations to enterprise-scale managed services. Info Security Products Guide has recognized MIX as the winner of the 2011 Global Excellence Award in the Cloud category. The 2011 Global Excellence Awards attracted entries from all over the world, and more than 50 judges from a broad spectrum of industries determined the winners. During the first quarter of 2011, we announced availability of our Hosted Enhanced File Transfer Service. This service expands our cloud-based solution portfolio by integrating a hosted version of our market-leading Enhanced File Transfer Server solution with infrastructure from Rackspace Hosting. This scalable and tiered service is structured for the SMB market, and allows customers of all sizes to outsource all or part of their secure information exchange needs at affordable price points. The Hosted EFT Server Service offering delivers these capabilities and benefits while allowing direct customer management of the Enhanced File Transfer Server solution (as contrasted with the fully managed MIX service).

Software as a Service Solution — Our SaaS solution, CuteSendIt, is a file transfer service for individuals, professionals, and businesses. CuteSendIt uses cloud computing approaches to deliver files through a hosted web portal. This solution approach meets the needs of users who do not have, or wish to invest in, file transfer infrastructure such as FTP servers or even client application software. Users access the CuteSendIt application over the Internet using a standard web browser, securely upload files (up to multi-GB) through the portal, and compose a brief message to accompany the file delivery. CuteSendIt then sends the message to the recipients as the body of an e-mail message. This e-mail message also includes links to the files uploaded through the CuteSendIt web portal. Anyone with an Internet connection can access this service at www.cutesendit.com. There is no software to install with CuteSendIt and no specific knowledge of file transfer is needed to use it. CuteSendIt currently is free to use for a limited number of transfers, and offers various monthly and yearly fee-based plans that meet specific file transfer requirements.

Professional Services — We offer a range of professional services to complement our software and cloud-based solutions. These professional services include product customization and system integration, solution “quickstart” implementations, business process and workflow, policy development, and education and training. Many of these services pertain to specific enterprise solutions like the Enhanced File Transfer Server suite, enabling tight bundling on a fixed-price and fixed-scope basis with product license sales. In addition, we may provide longer-term engineering services, including supporting multi-year contracts, if necessary, to support certain solution implementations and integrations. For example, we provide engineering support as a subcontractor on the MAT industry team supporting SAMS-E, a major Army logistics program. This SAMS-E support represents the largest professional services engagement in GlobalSCAPE’s 15-year history. Under the contract terms, we are providing professional services to sustain integration of our Secure FTP Server and CuteFTP solutions within the SAMS-E environment. In addition to the contracted services, GlobalSCAPE may deliver enhanced software solutions for SAMS-E under the subcontractor agreement. The Army exercised the first option year of the MAT industry team contract in September 2011, which will extend our contracted period of performance to September 2012. The option year contract includes a reduction in our support, compared to the level of effort at the end of the base contract year, government fiscal year 2011. However, our participation in the contract grew significantly during the base year so it is unclear if our support will remain at current levels, increase during the option year as it did in the prior contract year, or even decline.

Outlook

We believe that the future success of our business will be dependent upon our ability to:

 

   

Leverage our MFT solutions and expertise to enter, and establish leadership in, broader information exchange markets while maintaining leadership in the MFT industry.

 

   

Grow recurring revenue.

 

   

Continue developing and enhancing our software solutions.

Enter and Establish Leadership in Broader Markets. We have been in the leader’s quadrant of the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Managed File Transfer for the past two years. Gartner has stated that the MFT market is approximately $500 million to $550 million. With MFT capabilities increasingly being integrated into business-to-business (“B2B”) gateway, data integration, service oriented architecture, and other technical solutions, the need to keep evolving our solutions and entering adjacent markets is clear. We believe the market will continue shifting toward consideration of MFT as more of a “feature” than a solution. This shift may take many years, but we believe early recognition of the trend and appropriate strategic planning increase our potential for evolving our solutions in front of the ongoing market changes. Our entry into the multi-billion dollar cloud services and endpoint security markets reflects strategic broadening of our solution applicability. We also have considerably enhanced our professional services capabilities in recent years. More customers are contracting for our professional services and seeking repeat consulting engagements to support their business operations. The persistent business presence allowed by our cloud-based subscription services is a strategic development that we believe will reinforce this trend.

Grow Recurring Revenue. Recurring revenue includes M&S contracts and subscriptions for our cloud-based managed and hosted solutions. In the broadest sense, delivery of labor hours on long-duration professional services contracts also fits within this growth strategy because such “contracted sales” provide a book of sold business that will be recognized into revenue in future periods, with some revenue from these labor contracts potentially visible even two or three years in the future. We believe increasing recurring revenue provides greater predictability of revenue in future periods and a stronger hedge against future business (or broader economic) downturns. Our recurring revenue, primarily in the form of M&S contracts and the MAT professional services delivery, grew to $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2011, up from $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2010. During the third quarter of 2011, we also continued to increase our install base and pipeline of managed solution opportunities.

Continue to enhance and develop our solutions. We have allocated significant resources to enhancing and developing our solutions in recent years. This strategic focus has delivered substantially more capable releases of our WAFS, Mail Express, and Enhanced File Transfer solutions, plus our cloud-based offerings and professional services. We intend to maintain our focus on developing our solution portfolio and, as appropriate, enhancing our existing solutions. Our solution portfolio may evolve over time, for example, through development of new offerings in adjacent markets or through acquisition. For example, since 2010, we have announced development of several new solutions, including MIX, Hosted Enhanced File Transfer Server, appShield and CuteBackup.

Enter and Extend our Presence in the Endpoint Security Market. We will enter the antivirus segment of the endpoint security market with appShield. The appShield solution provides an opportunity for us to increase sales of our consumer products, which have declined in recent years. The endpoint security market also is attractive because consumer sales typically are relatively low-touch and accomplished largely through our online cart, over the Internet. From this initial market entry with appShield we intend to explore, and potentially develop or acquire, other endpoint security solutions. These additional solutions may be complementary to appShield or to our other solutions. Like appShield, the other solutions also may appeal to SMB or even enterprise customers.

Increase Coverage through International and Channel Sales. We have added several channel partners in recent years and also organized our sales force and associated sales processes, to more effectively support our partner network worldwide. Channel partners resell, distribute, or integrate our solutions. Channel partners announced since the beginning of 2009 include Carahsoft Corporation, Lifeboat Distribution, MAT, and multiple system integration companies with whom we have registered as a small business. We also have added other channel partners worldwide in recent months. These channel partners provide us with additional opportunities to penetrate deeper into existing markets and enter new sales territories. Channel sales also can help us establish a lower-touch delivery model through which we train and provision the partners to sell and distribute our solutions. Achieving additional traction in new sales territories potentially can increase our sales in future years, considering we derived 89 percent of our sales from just the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia in the third quarter of 2011. As part of our strategy, we continually identify and certify strategic partners to cover growing markets.

Grow Enterprise and Government Sales. GlobalSCAPE does business with thousands of businesses around the world. We provide solutions to some of the world’s largest banks, insurance companies, healthcare providers, automakers and film companies. Our intention is to continue to penetrate large enterprise firms with our expanding solutions and services. Government sales, particularly large contracts from the U.S. Army, have had a significant positive impact on our growth and market image since 2007; however, these large contracts also cause significant swings in our financial results. We are focused on more deliberate growth in government sales, including software and associated services, potentially augmented by occasional large product orders. Our current engineering services activities in support of the SAMS-E contract are part of this long-term focus. We may obtain, sustain, or update government certifications as necessary to compete in this sector. For example, we have received Federal Information Processing Standards (“FIPS”) 140-2 validation of the GlobalSCAPE Cryptographic Module embedded in Enhanced File Transfer Server. In addition, Enhanced File Transfer Server Version 6 and the latest version of CuteFTP Pro received the Certificate of Networthiness from the U.S. Army Network Technology Command during 2009. Our receipt of this certificate enables Army installations worldwide to install and operate these server and client-based secure information exchange solutions.

Develop our Corporate Brand. We traditionally have been better known for CuteFTP than as a corporate brand. Since the late-2008 timeframe, we have made a concerted effort to elevate our corporate profile. We retained marketing communications and investor relations firms in 2009 and continue to strengthen our efforts in these areas. We also have established a strong, but informal, relationship with America’s Growth Capital, an investment bank focused on emerging growth markets. Through our efforts in this area, we have participated in numerous analyst briefings and non-deal investor conferences that have increased our recognition within the investor and analyst communities. We also have obtained increasing national media coverage. In addition, we have revised our website, logos, and other areas reflecting our corporate brand. Through these activities, we have established a much more consistent, recognizable brand that may better support future growth and market visibility. We also believe we have enhanced our brand through additional national and regional attention resulting from multiple corporate awards received.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company continues to enjoy a strong working capital position resulting from net profits from operations over 28 of the last 30 quarters. At September 30, 2011, the Company had net working capital of $11.2 million. The primary component of current liabilities at September 30, 2011 was $5.9 million of deferred revenues which will be recognized over the remaining term (generally one to twelve months) of the maintenance and support contracts. At September 30, 2011, our principal commitments consisted of obligations outstanding under operating leases as well as royalty agreements with third parties and trade accounts payable. The commitments related to royalty agreements are contingent on sales volumes. We plan to continue to expend significant resources on product development in future periods and may also use our cash to license or acquire technology, products, or businesses. At September 30, 2011, we had $13.4 million of cash available in a depository account and we continue to generate cash in excess of our operational needs.

Our cash on hand currently allows us to operate from a position of financial strength. However, because our principal sources of capital are cash on hand and cash flow from operations, if our sales were to decline, our available capital would also decline. If sales decline significantly or if our liquidity is otherwise under duress, management may substantially reduce personnel and personnel-related costs, reduce or substantially eliminate capital expenditures and/or reduce or substantially eliminate research and development expenditures. We may also sell equity securities or enter into credit arrangements in order to finance future acquisitions or licensing activities, to the extent available.

As in 2010, the Board of Directors has determined that the Company should continue to concentrate on increasing revenues in 2011 and subsequent years. This has entailed and will continue to entail, increased spending on research and development, personnel, partner relationships and public relations. It is expected that these investments will decrease net income and earnings per share in the current year, but would help provide for future revenue growth in 2012 and beyond.

Table of Contents

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $2.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively. The increase in 2011 was due to an increase in net income as well as significant changes in all operating assets and liabilities.

Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was approximately ($123,000) and $1.0 million, respectively. Cash used in investing activities in 2011 was only for equipment purchases whereas cash provided by investing activities for 2010 was from the redemption of short-term investments.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $170,000 and $219,000 respectively. The increase was due to proceeds received from the exercise of stock options.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no significant changes in our contractual obligations during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the contractual obligations disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, set forth in Part II, Item 7, of our 2010 Form 10-K. Our obligations mainly consist of the lease on our office space and leases on equipment.

Revenue. We derive our revenue primarily from sales of our software licenses and from maintenance and support and professional services. We also recognize revenue from subscription-based offerings. Software license revenue primarily consists of revenue from sales of our enterprise solutions, such as Enhanced File Transfer Server and WAFS, and is typically recognized upon shipment. Maintenance and support revenue includes unspecified software license updates and product support. Maintenance and support revenue is recognized ratably over the contractual period, which is typically one year, but can be up to three years. Professional services revenue includes a variety of customization, implementation, and integration services, as well as delivery of education and training associated with our solutions, all of which are recognized as the services are performed. In addition, we have added subscription revenues related to the sales of our Managed Solutions. Subscription revenue is recognized on a monthly basis as the services are billed over the contract period, which ranges from one to three years.

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, total revenues increased by approximately $648,000 or 13.6% from the same quarter in 2010. Revenues increased primarily due to substantial growth in professional services revenue, increased product sales, particularly for the Enhanced File Transfer Server solution suite, and maintenance and support renewals.

Sales of our EFT Server Enterprise and EFT Server products increased by approximately $340,000 or 9.0% for the quarter. These products represented 76.0% of our total revenues in the three months ending September 30, 2011 as compared to 79.3%, in the same period in 2010. EFT Server Enterprise revenues increased by 10.0% from $2.9 million to $3.2 million, mainly due to an increase in module and maintenance and support renewal sales. EFT Server revenue increased by 3% from $911,000 to $944,000 due to an increase in the average price of maintenance and support contracts when compared to the same period in 2010.

Revenues from the CuteFTP Home and CuteFTP Professional products decreased by $88,000 or 21.6% in the quarter ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, and accounted for approximately 5.9% and 8.6% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. This decline continued the general reduction in CuteFTP product revenues, both in absolute terms and as a percentage of revenue, experienced since 2006. The consumer FTP product market has substantial low-cost, and even free, solutions that have put increasing pressure on CuteFTP product revenues. Additional pressure on this product line comes from social media companies and services that allow consumers to share images and video. Our reliance on the current CuteFTP products will continue to decline as we emphasize sales of our more complex enterprise products and potentially enter adjacent markets.

Sales of our WAFS and CDP software decreased by $35,000 or 7.7% for the quarter. The WAFS and CDP products are largely used by architectural, engineering, and construction firms to transfer large files between offices. The decrease was largely due to a decrease in maintenance and support renewals sold, and we believe this decrease reflects the time that passed between the prior major release of WAFS in 2009 and the commercial availability of WAFS version 4 in September 2011. WAFS and CDP software accounted for approximately 7.8% of total revenue for the third quarter of 2011 compared to 9.5% for the same period in 2010.

Professional services increased by $339,000 or 339% for the quarter. The growth in professional services revenue was driven largely by $308,000 in revenue earned on the MAT contract during the quarter. Professional services revenue may increase, stay approximately the same, or decline through the end of 2011 and into 2012, largely depending on the future scale of our participation in the MAT contract.

Products and services included in “Other” revenue, increased by $92,000, or 341%, for the quarter. This category primarily consists of Mail Express, Managed Information Exchange (MIX) and Hosted Enhanced File Transfer Server (Hosted EFT Server) sales. The increase in “Other” revenue was largely due to an increase in MIX and Hosted EFT Server revenue and Mail Express revenue.

Because of the more complex and business-critical nature of the EFT Server, EFT Server Enterprise, Wide Area File Services, Continuous Data Protection, and Mail Express solutions, purchasers of those enterprise products require increased maintenance and support. Our maintenance and support revenues for the quarter increased by 6%, from $1.9 million in 2010 to $2.0 million in 2011, accounting for approximately 37% of revenue in the quarter. Our deferred revenue balance increased from $6.1 million at September 30, 2010 to $7.2 million at September 30, 2011 as a result of higher maintenance and support sales (including renewals) over a 12 month period, growing sales of our hosted and managed solutions, and increased sales of professional services engagements which were invoiced (and, in many cases, paid) but were not yet delivered. As our enterprise products become a larger portion of our total revenues, we believe maintenance and support revenues will continue to increase. However, if sales of our on-premise

enterprise products decrease, then new sales of maintenance and support contracts will decrease as well given the typical bundling of M&S contracts with enterprise software solution sales. Maintenance and support pricing is reflective of the license cost of the products and the additional support it takes to maintain and support the products and customers. With higher maintenance and support revenues, we will recognize additional deferred revenue as we earn the revenue over the life of the maintenance and support agreement.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists primarily of royalties, a portion of our bandwidth costs, hosted service expenses for our Managed Solutions, travel associated with professional services delivery and other cost of goods sold. Cost of revenues increased by approximately 218% from $142,000 in the third quarter of 2010 to $451,000 in 2011. This increase was largely caused by an increase in royalties of $46,000, the addition of hosted server expenses of approximately $30,000, and other cost of goods sold of $216,000. The increase in royalties was due to increased sales of a licensed technology. The hosted server expenses are associated with the new MIX and Hosted EFT Server solutions which launched in July, 2010 and February 2011, respectively. The other cost of goods sold was due to labor associated with the professional services being performed for the MAT contract, with the substantial increase reflecting the much greater cost of sales for labor-based professional services contracts, as compared to the cost of goods sold for product or subscription services sales.

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue were 63% in the third quarter of 2011 as compared to 69% in the same period last year, though these expenses increased in absolute terms mostly due to increased sales. The net increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses of approximately $124,000 or 3.7% was primarily caused by increases in commission expense, salaries and wages, contract labor, other professional fees, marketing expense, trade show expense and printing expense. These increases were offset by decreases in other accounts, including employee bonus expense, consulting fees and legal fees.

Salaries and wages increased by approximately $100,000 due to an overall increase in staffing in the third quarter of 2011 as compared to the third quarter of 2010. Commission expense increased by approximately $44,000 due to the increase in sales during the third quarter. Contract labor expense increased by approximately $40,000 due to three sales representatives which were hired on a contract basis. The increase in other professional fees of approximately $36,000 was mainly due to the retention of a firm to consult with the Company, resulting in the research and development tax credit received by the Company. Marketing expense increased by approximately $20,000 due to an increase in the use of social media activities and the addition of a marketing automation platform. The increase in trade show expense of approximately $15,000 was due to the increased attendance at trade shows.

Employee bonus expense was $130,000 lower in the third quarter of 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 due a higher accrual rate in 2010. Consulting fees were approximately $56,000 lower in the third quarter of 2011 due to a consultant which was hired to develop the MIX product line and was later hired as an employee and the use of another consultant in 2010 for government sales and who was no longer used in 2011. Legal fees were $40,000 lower in the third quarter of 2011 due to the prior resolution of the Uniloc litigation.

Research and Development. The decrease in research and development expenses of approximately $21,000 in the third quarter of 2011 was mainly due to a decrease in salaries and wages of approximately $54,000, a decrease in bonus expense of $29,000. These decreases were offset by an increase of approximately $45,000 in external research and development expense. The decrease in salaries and wages was mainly due to a decrease of two software engineers. The decrease in bonus expense of approximately $29,000 was due to a higher accrual rate in 2010. These decreases were offset by an increase of $45,000 in external research and development expense due additional expense related to WAFS testing.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense consists of depreciation expense related to our fixed assets and amortization of capitalized development costs and intangible assets. Depreciation and amortization decreased by $27,000 due to software which became fully depreciated.

Income Taxes. Our effective tax rates were -13.1% and 12.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The effective tax rate decreased in the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 is due to a $261,000 research and development tax credit determined and applied in the third quarter of 2011 but pertaining to 2008, 2009, and 2010. Other items affecting the tax rate included a higher domestic production activities deduction (“DPAD”) in 2010 as well as the non-deductible incentive stock option expenses.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, total revenues increased by approximately $2.1 million or 15.6% as compared to the same period in 2010. Revenues increased due to strong growth in professional services revenue, which increased by $1.0 million or 316%, plus an increase of $841,000 or 11% in product license sales and growth of $253,000 or 5% in maintenance and support revenue.

Sales of our EFT Server Enterprise and EFT Server products increased by approximately $1.2 million or 11.7% for the nine months. These products represented approximately 75.4% of our total revenues in the nine months ending September 30, 2011 as compared to 78.1%, in the same period in 2010. The increase in sales was largely due to an increase in the average sales price of product licenses as well as to new maintenance and support sales and ongoing maintenance and support contract renewals.

Revenues from the CuteFTP Home and CuteFTP Professional products decreased by $180,000 or 15.5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, and accounted for approximately 6.2% and 8.6% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. This decline continued the general reduction in CuteFTP product revenues, both in absolute terms and as a percentage of revenue, experienced since 2006. The consumer FTP product market has substantial low-cost, and even free, solutions that have put increasing pressure on CuteFTP product revenues. Additional pressure on this product line comes from social media companies and services that allow consumers to share images and video. Our reliance on the current CuteFTP products will continue to decline as we emphasize sales of our more complex enterprise products and potentially enter adjacent markets.

Sales of our WAFS and CDP software decreased by $244,000 or 17.2% during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. The WAFS and CDP products are largely used by architecture, engineering, and construction firms to transfer large files between offices. The decrease was due principally to a decrease in the average price of the WAFS licenses and a decrease in the number of WAFS maintenance and support renewals sold. These products accounted for approximately 7.5% of total revenue for the first nine months ending September 30, 2011 compared to 10.4% for the same period in 2010.

Professional services increased by $1 million or 316% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. The growth in professional services revenue is driven largely by $929,000 in revenue earned on the MAT contract during this period. As noted above in the three-month revenue comparisons, our level of participation on the MAT contract may change during Government FY2012, depending on a variety of factors, including availability of Government budget authorization for the SAMS-E program and our evolving work share on the contract.

Products and services included in “Other” revenue, increased by $264,000, or 326%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This category primarily consists of Mail Express, Managed Information Exchange (MIX) and Hosted Enhanced File Transfer (Hosted EFT Server) sales. Other revenue accounted for 2.2% of total revenue for the nine month period in 2011 as compared to .6% for the same period in 2010. The increase in “Other” revenue was largely due to an increase in MIX and Hosted EFT Server revenue and Mail Express revenue.

Because of the more complex and business-critical nature of the EFT Server, EFT Server Enterprise, WAFS, and CDP products, purchasers require maintenance and support. Maintenance and support pricing is reflective of the license cost of the products and the additional support needed to maintain and support the products and customers. Our maintenance and support revenues for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 increased by 5% compared to the same period in 2010. The increase in maintenance and support revenues for the period somewhat lagged the proportional increase in product license sales because we transitioned in the middle of 2011 to an approach in which we allow our international partners to directly renew maintenance and support contracts. We believe the transition was effectively accomplished by the end of the third quarter of 2011, as reflected in the proportional increase in maintenance and support during the quarter.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists primarily of royalties, a portion of our bandwidth costs, hosted service expenses for our Managed Solutions, travel associated with professional services delivery and other cost of goods sold. Cost of revenues increased by approximately 247% from $389,000 in 2010 to $1.3 million in 2011. This increase was largely caused by an increase in royalties of $125,000, the addition of hosted server expenses of approximately $125,000, and other cost of goods sold of $686,000. The increase in royalties was due to increased sales of a licensed technology. The hosted server expenses are associated with the new MIX and Hosted EFT Server solutions which launched in July, 2010 and February 2011, respectively, and the other cost of goods sold was due to labor associated with the professional services being performed for the MAT contract.

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue were 64% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to 69% in the same period last year.

Although SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue declined, they increased by $707,000 or 7.5% in absolute terms. The increase in these expenses was caused by several items: salaries and wages and related payroll taxes, commission expense, other professional fees, travel expense, trade shows, marketing expense, and contract labor expense. These increases were offset by decreases in employee bonus expense, legal fees, consulting fees, advertising fees, and bad debt expense.

The approximate $420,000 increase in salaries and wages and related payroll taxes was due to an overall increase in staffing as compared to the same period in 2010. Commission expense increased by approximately $233,000 due to increased sales when compared to the same period in 2010. Other professional fees increased by approximately $87,000 due to the addition of an investor relations firm and the retention of a firm to consult with the Company, resulting in research and development tax credit received by the Company. Travel expense increased by approximately $64,000 due to travel related to the attendance at trade shows and international travel related to the strengthening of our channel relationships. Marketing expense increased by approximately $59,000 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010 due to the extension of our social media activities, and addition of a marketing automation platform. Contract labor expense increased by approximately $50,000 due to the addition of three sales representatives who were hired on a contract basis.

Employee bonus expense was lower by approximately $159,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 due to a higher accrual rate used in 2010. Legal fees were lower in this period than in the same period of 2010 due to the prior resolution of the Uniloc litigation. Consulting fees were approximately $102,000 lower in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 due to the transition of one consultant to full-time employee status and an additional reduction in our use of outside consulting to assist with government sales as compared to the same period in 2010. Advertising fees decreased by approximately $40,000 due to the continued optimization of Google search ads. We have reduced the amount that we spend on search terms without affecting the amount of sales leads that are generated by the search results. The reduction in bad debt expense of approximately $24,000 as compared to the same period in 2010 was due to a decrease in accounts receivable balances which were over 90 days old.

Research and Development. The increase in research and development expenses of approximately $156,000 primarily consists of an $84,000 increase in salaries and wages and related payroll taxes due to the addition of new engineers and an increase of approximately $32,000 in external research and development due to expenses relating to WAFS testing.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense consists of depreciation expense related to our fixed assets and amortization of capitalized development costs and intangible assets. Depreciation and amortization decreased by $29,000 due to software which became fully depreciated.

Other Income (Expense), net. Other income/expense consists of interest income. Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was from interest earned on the CoreTrace promissory note.

Income Taxes. Our effective tax rates were 16.2 % and 27.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. For 2011, the most significant item that affected our effective income tax rate was the $261,000 research and development tax credit which related to years 2008, 2009 and 2010 and was taken in the third quarter of 2011. The other item that affects the effective tax rate in 2011 was the deduction for domestic production activities (“DPAD”) and was offset by non-deductible incentive stock option expense and state income taxes.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

To date, we have not utilized derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments. We do not expect to employ these or other strategies to hedge market risk in the foreseeable future. We may invest our cash in money market funds, which are subject to minimal credit and market risk. We believe that the interest rate risk and other relevant market risks associated with these financial instruments are immaterial.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, approximately 31% of our sales came from customers outside the United States. All revenues are received in U.S. dollars so we have no material exchange rate risk with regard to the sales. However, in July 2003, the European Union (EU) enacted Value Added Taxes (VAT) on electronic purchases. These taxes are charged to our non-business customers in the EU and, in our case, are remitted quarterly in pound sterling. The impact of this currency translation has not been material to our business.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of GlobalSCAPE’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

GlobalSCAPE has been named as one of a number of defendants in two different patent infringement suits. The first was filed by Content Delivery Solutions LLC in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas Austin Division. The complaint alleges that GlobalSCAPE infringed on a patent that addresses products or services for resuming interrupted transmission of a file over a network. The second was filed by Achates Reference Publishing, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas Marshall Division. The complaint alleges that GlobalSCAPE infringed on a patent that addresses product activation functionality. Both of these matters have just been brought forth and, while GlobalSCAPE believes that it has meritorious defenses to both plaintiffs’ claims and intends to defend the lawsuits vigorously, it is early in its process and it is not possible to reasonably determine the outcome of these suits. Accordingly, it is not possible at this time to assess whether or not we need to reserve for potential settlements.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2010 Form 10-K which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our 2010 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing GlobalSCAPE. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results.
