Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2012 and 2011 (unaudited)

1.	FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

Effective July 1, 2011, Interactive Intelligence Group, Inc. (“Interactive Intelligence”) became the successor reporting company to Interactive Intelligence, Inc. (“ININ Inc.”), pursuant to a corporate reorganization approved by the shareholders of ININ Inc. at its 2011 annual meeting of shareholders (the “Reorganization”). Interactive Intelligence is conducting the business previously conducted by ININ Inc. in substantially the same manner. In these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the term the “Company” means ININ Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries for the periods through and including June 30, 2011, and Interactive Intelligence and its wholly-owned subsidiaries for the periods after June 30, 2011.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed, or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, at the respective balance sheet dates, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the respective reporting periods. Despite management’s best effort to establish good faith estimates and assumptions, actual results could differ from these estimates. In management’s opinion, the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary (which are of a normal and recurring nature, except as otherwise noted) for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented.

The Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2011 have been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements at that date but do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 15, 2012. The Company’s results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions.

Reclassification and Adjustments

Effective January 1, 2012, the Company reclassified certain subscription revenues which were included in product revenues in prior periods as recurring revenues. In prior years, these revenues were not significant; however, as we have signed additional agreements with increasing revenues, we concluded that it is appropriate to report these revenues as recurring. Historical amounts have been reclassified based on this new revenue presentation. The reclassification did not have any impact on the overall results previously reported.

2.	SUMMARY OF CERTAIN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Company’s interim critical accounting policies and estimates include the recognition of income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate. For a complete summary of the Company’s other significant accounting policies and other critical accounting estimates, refer to Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), which amends FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820. This updated guidance clarifies the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements. In order to develop common requirements in accordance with GAAP and IFRS, this update also provides changes to particular principles or requirements for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for public entities prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012 and there was no material impact on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In June 2011, FASB issued FASB ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which amends FASB ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income. This updated guidance requires companies to report comprehensive income in either a single statement or in two consecutive statements reporting net income and other comprehensive income. The updated guidance does not change what items are reported in other comprehensive income or the GAAP requirement to report reclassification of items from other comprehensive income to net income. The guidance is effective for public entities with fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012 and there was no material impact on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In December 2011, the FASB issued FASB ASU 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, which defers the presentation requirements for reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income. This update was issued to allow the FASB more time to decide whether companies should present on the face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income for all periods presented. All other requirements under FASB ASU 2011-05 were not impacted by this update. The Company will continue to monitor the status of this updated guidance.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, there were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies or critical accounting estimates.

3.	INVESTMENTS

FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“FASB ASC 820”), as amended, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of

observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes the following three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

·	Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

·	Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s short-term investments all mature in less than one year and its long-term investments all mature within three years. Both short-term and long-term investments are considered available for sale. The Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The types of instruments valued based on quoted market prices in active markets include money market securities. Such instruments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company invests in money market funds that are traded daily and does not adjust the quoted price for such instruments. The types of instruments valued based on quoted prices in less active markets, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency include corporate notes, agency bonds, T-bills and commercial paper. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company uses consensus pricing, which is based on multiple pricing sources, to value its fixed income investments.

The following table sets forth a summary of the Company’s financial assets, classified as cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments on its condensed consolidated balance sheet, measured at fair value as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (in thousands):

4.	NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Diluted net income per share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares. When the Company reports net income, the calculation of diluted net income per share excludes shares underlying stock options outstanding that would be anti-dilutive. Potential common shares are composed of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and vesting of the restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012		2011
Net income, as reported (A)	$	189	$	3,095

Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding (B)		19,099		18,417
Dilutive effect of employee stock options		921		1,363
Common stock and common stock equivalents (C)		20,020		19,780

Net income per share:
Basic (A/B)	$	0.01	$	0.17
Diluted (A/C)		0.01		0.16

The Company’s calculation of diluted net income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 excludes stock options to purchase approximately 675,000 and 239,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

5.	STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Option Plans

The Company’s stock option plans, adopted in 1995, 1999 and 2006, authorize the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee, as applicable, to grant incentive and nonqualified stock options, and, in the case of the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and as assumed by Interactive Intelligence (the “2006 Plan”), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, performance shares, performance units and other stock-based awards. After adoption of the 2006 Plan by the Company’s shareholders in May 2006, the Company may no longer make any grants under previous plans, but any shares subject to awards under the 1999 Stock Option and Incentive Plan and the Outside Directors Stock Option Plan (collectively, the “1999 Plans”) that are cancelled are added to shares available under the 2006 Plan. A maximum of 7,050,933 shares are available for delivery under the 2006 Plan, which consists of (i) 3,350,000 shares, plus (ii) 320,000 shares available for issuance under the 1999 Plans, but not underlying any outstanding stock options or other awards under the 1999 Plans, plus (iii) up to 3,380,933 shares subject to outstanding stock options or other awards under the 1999 Plans that expire, are forfeited or otherwise terminate unexercised on or after May 18, 2006. The number of shares available under the 2006 Plan is subject to adjustment for certain changes in the Company’s capital structure. The exercise price of options granted under the 2006 Plan is equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock, as reported by The NASDAQ Global Select Market, on the business day immediately preceding the date of grant.

The Company grants RSUs and three types of stock options. The first type of stock option is non-performance-based subject only to time-based vesting, and these stock options are granted by the Company as annual grants to executives and designated key employees, to certain new employees and to newly-elected non-employee directors. These stock options vest in four equal annual installments beginning one year after the grant date. The fair value of these option grants is determined on the date of grant and the related compensation expense is recognized for the entire award on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

The second type of stock option granted by the Company is performance-based subject to cancellation if the specified performance targets are not met. If the applicable performance targets have been achieved, the options will vest in four equal annual installments beginning one year after the performance-related period has ended. The fair value of these stock option grants is determined on the date of grant and the related compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period, including the initial period for which the specified performance targets must be met.

The third type of stock option granted by the Company is director options granted to non-employee directors annually. These options are similar to the non-performance-based options described above except that the director options vest one year after the grant date. The fair value of these option grants is determined on the date of the grant and the related compensation expense is recognized over one year. The director options are generally granted at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders during the second quarter of a fiscal year.

Commencing in January 2011, the Company began granting RSUs to certain key employees. The fair value of the RSUs is determined on the date of grant and the RSUs vest in four equal annual installments beginning one year after the grant date. RSUs are not included in issued and outstanding common stock until the shares are vested and settlement has occurred.

The plans may be terminated by the Company’s Board of Directors at any time.

Stock Option and RSU Valuation

The Company estimated the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. There were no material changes in the way the assumptions were calculated as previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The weighted-average estimated per option value of non-performance-based and performance-based options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 used the following assumptions:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
Valuation assumptions for non-performance-based options:	2012			2011
Dividend yield		--	%		--	%
Expected volatility		63.63	%		63.10	%
Risk-free interest rate		0.81	%		1.74	%
Expected life of option (in years)		4.25			4.25

	Three Months Ended March 31,
Valuation assumptions for performance-based options:	2012			2011

7.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company has received notification from competitors and other technology providers claiming that the Company’s technology infringes their proprietary rights. The Company cannot provide assurance that these matters can be resolved amicably without litigation, or that the Company will be able to enter into licensing arrangements on terms and conditions that would not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.

From time to time, the Company is also involved in certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of conducting its business. While the ultimate liability pursuant to these actions cannot currently be determined, the Company believes these legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations. Litigation, in general, and intellectual property litigation, in particular, can be expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. Moreover, the results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict.

Guarantees

The Company provides indemnifications of varying scope and amount to certain customers against claims of intellectual property infringement made by third parties arising from the use of its products. The Company’s direct software license agreements, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 460, Guarantees, include certain provisions for indemnifying customers, in material compliance with their license agreement, against liabilities if the Company’s software products infringe upon a third party's intellectual property rights, over the life of the agreement. There is no maximum potential amount of future payments set under the guarantee. However, the Company may at any time and at its option and expense: (i) procure the right of the customer to continue to use the Company’s software that may infringe a third party’s rights; (ii) modify its software so as to avoid infringement; or (iii) require the customer to return its software and refund the customer the fee actually paid by the customer for its software less depreciation based on a five-year straight-line depreciation schedule. The customer’s failure to provide timely notice or reasonable assistance will relieve the Company of its obligations under this indemnification to the extent that it has been actually and materially prejudiced by such failure. To date, the Company has not incurred, nor does it expect to incur, any material related costs and, therefore, has not reserved for such liabilities.

The Company’s software license agreements also include a warranty that its software products will substantially conform to its software user documentation for a period of one year, provided the customer is in material compliance with the software license agreement. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs associated with these product warranties, and as such, has not reserved for any such warranty liabilities in its operating results.

Lease Commitments

The Company leases space for its world headquarters in Indianapolis, Indiana under an operating lease agreement and amendments which expire on March 31, 2018. The Company also has multiple leases for offices and other space throughout the world. The office space for sales, services, development and international offices and a product distribution center located in Indianapolis, Indiana are rented under operating leases and expire at various times through 2016. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 840, Leases, rental expense is recognized ratably over the lease period, including those leases containing escalation clauses.

Other Contingencies

The Company has received and may continue to receive certain payroll tax credits and real estate tax abatements that were granted to the Company based upon certain growth projections. If the Company’s actual results are less than those projections, the Company may be subject to repayment of some or all of the tax credits or payment of additional real estate taxes in the case of the abatements. The Company does not believe that it will be subject to payment of any money related to these taxes; however, the Company cannot provide assurance as to the outcome.

8.	INCOME TAXES

The following table sets forth the items accounting for the difference between expected income tax expense at the 35% federal statutory rate compared to actual income tax expense recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012			2011
Expected income tax expense at 35% tax rate	$	88		$	1,680
State taxes, net of federal benefit		74			191
Stock-based compensation expense related to non-deductible stock option expense		10			35
Disqualifying dispositions of stock options		(10	)		(223	)
Research tax credit		(67	)		(138	)
Other		(10	)		159
Income tax expense	$	85		$	1,704

During 2010, the Company utilized its remaining net operating losses generated from the exercise of stock options in prior years and began utilizing deferred tax assets generated from foreign withholding and research tax credits. At March 31, 2012, the Company had approximately $2.5 million of alternative minimum tax, federal and state research tax credit carryforwards and foreign tax credits available to offset taxes payable.

The Company and its subsidiaries file federal income tax returns and income tax returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions. Tax years 2008 and forward remain open for examination for federal tax purposes and tax years 2007 and forward remain open for examination for the Company’s more significant state tax jurisdictions. To the extent utilized in future years’ tax returns, net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards at December 31, 2011 will remain subject to examination until the respective tax year is closed.

We have historically used a cost plus basis for calculating taxes in most foreign jurisdications in which we operate. A cost plus tax basis limits the taxes paid in foreign jurisdictions to a markup of the costs that the Company incurs in these jurisdictions and is not tied to the actual revenues generated. The reseller model results in the foreign subsidiaries recognizing their own revenue and paying the U.S. entity for the costs of software and hardware sold as well as services provided. The reseller model does not guarantee a profit for the foreign subsidiaries as is done under the cost plus model.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the recorded foreign tax benefit (expense) was $660,000 and $(69,000), respectively. The foreign income tax benefit in the first quarter of 2012 is due to the Company’s change from cost plus to a reseller model for certain of its subsidiaries. This change in tax models was due to the Company’s acquisition of three foreign entities in 2011 and 2012, as well as a change in its United Kingdom entity to a reseller model. The impact of the foreign effective income tax rates could become material as the Company expands its operations in foreign countries and calculates foreign income taxes based on operating results in those countries.

FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company has identified an uncertain tax position related to certain tax credits that the Company currently believes meets the “more likely than not” recognition threshold to be sustained upon examination. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2007, this uncertain tax position had not been recognized because the Company had a full valuation allowance established. The balance of the reserve was approximately $1.6 million at December 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2012, the reserve increased to $1.7 million because of the current year increase in the tax credits.

9.	ACQUISITIONS

ATIO Acquisition

On January 5, 2012, the Company closed its acquisition of certain assets of ATIO Corporation (Pty) Ltd. (“ATIO”), a reseller of its multichannel contact center solutions based in South Africa.

The acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations ("FASB ASC 805"). The results of ATIO’s operations related to the acquired assets from the acquisition date were included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

The premium paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired in the purchase, or goodwill, was primarily attributed to ATIO’s existing client base. Included within goodwill is the assembled workforce, comprised of 40 employees, which does not qualify for separate recognition. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Customer relationships are amortized based upon historical patterns in which the economic benefits are expected to be realized.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to provide our investors with an understanding of our past performance, our financial condition and our prospects and should be read in conjunction with other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Investors should carefully review the information contained in this report under Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” and in the Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. The following will be discussed and analyzed:

·	Forward-Looking Information

Overview

·	Financial Highlights

·	Historical Results of Operations

·	Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

·	Liquidity and Capital Resources

·	Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Forward-Looking Information

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contain “forward-looking” information (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that involves risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can often be identified by the use of such verbs as “expects”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “intend”, “plan”, “may”, “should”, “will”, “would”, “will be”, “will continue”, “will likely result”, or similar verbs or conjugations of such verbs. If any of our assumptions on which the statements are based prove incorrect or should unanticipated circumstances arise, our actual results could materially differ from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements. The differences could be caused by a number of factors or combination of factors, including, but not limited to, unstable economic conditions, rapid technological changes in the industry, our ability to maintain profitability, to manage successfully our growth, to manage successfully our increasingly complex third-party relationships resulting from the software and hardware components being licensed or sold with our solutions, to maintain successful relationships with certain suppliers which may be impacted by competition in the technology industry, to maintain successful relationships with our current and any new partners, to maintain and improve our current products, to develop new products, to protect our proprietary rights adequately, to successfully integrate acquired businesses and other factors set forth in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings.

Overview

We are a recognized leader in the global market for contact center and business communications solutions, offering a suite of applications that can be deployed as a cloud-based or on-premise multi-channel communications platform. This platform is also the foundation of our solutions for unified communications and business process automation. Our solutions are used by businesses and organizations across a wide range of industries, including teleservices, insurance, banking, accounts receivable management, utilities, healthcare, retail, technology, government and business services.

In 2011, we completed our organizational transformation into a new holding company structure pursuant to a corporate reorganization whereby Interactive Intelligence Group, Inc. became the successor reporting company to Interactive Intelligence, Inc. This new structure is intended to provide us with enhanced strategic, operational and financial flexibility, improve our ability to determine financial results and profitability of different lines of business, and better manage tax expenses and exposure to liabilities.

We plan to expand our global reach by:

Continuing to gain market share with our contact center and unified communications solutions, particularly through our cloud-based deployment;

2. Increasing sales of our business process automation offering;

3. Acquiring complementary applications and distribution channels; and

Leveraging our strategic and distribution partners to further penetrate existing accounts and markets.

For further information on our business and the products and services we offer, refer to the Part I, Item I "Business" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Our management monitors certain key measures to assess our financial results. In particular, we track trends in product orders, contracted professional services, and cloud-based orders from quarter to quarter and in comparison to the prior year actual results and current year projected amounts. We also review leading market indicators to identify trends in economic conditions. In addition to orders and revenues, management reviews costs of revenue and operating expenses and staffing levels to ensure we are managing new expenditures and controlling costs. For additional discussions regarding trends and our expectations for the remainder of 2012, see the "Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011" below.

In addition to the above, our management monitors diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), a key measure of performance also used by analysts and investors, based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and on a non-GAAP basis. Management uses non-GAAP EPS, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP operating income to analyze our business. These non-GAAP measures include revenue which was not recognized on a GAAP basis due to purchase accounting adjustments and exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expense for stock options, the amortization of certain intangible assets related to acquisitions by us, and non-cash income tax expense. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions are non-cash and certain amounts of income tax expense are non-cash. We believe that the presentation of non-GAAP results, when shown in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to our management and investors regarding financial and business trends related to our results of operations. Further, our management believes that these non-GAAP measures improve management’s and investors’ ability to compare our financial performance with other companies in the technology industry. Because stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions and non-cash income tax expense amounts can vary significantly between companies, it is useful to compare results excluding these amounts. Our management also uses financial statements that exclude stock-based compensation expense related to stock options, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions and non-cash income tax amounts for our internal budgets.

Total revenues, including these acquisitions, increased $5.1 million, or 11%, in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. Our revenue growth rate excluding acquisition-related revenues was 8% for first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter 2011. The dollar amount of orders in the first quarter of 2012 increased 6% compared to the first quarter of 2011, driven by a 19% increase in the dollar amount of cloud-based orders. We signed 60 new customers during the first quarter of 2012, including 11 new customers for our cloud-based offering. The average new customer cloud-based order was $748,000, up from $488,000 during the same quarter last year. A higher mix of cloud-based orders and the structure of certain product orders resulted in more revenues being deferred to future quarters. Deferred revenues increased to $77.8 million as of March 31, 2012 compared to $61.0 million as of March 31, 2011. The amount of unbilled future cloud-based revenues as of March 31, 2012 increased to $40.7 million from $18.6 million as of March 31, 2011. The combination of deferred revenues and unbilled future cloud-based revenues was $118.4 million as of March 31, 2012, up 49% compared to $79.6 million as of March 31, 2011. Due to the fact that cloud-based orders are deferred and recognized over time, whereas premise-based orders are generally recognized upfront, the mix of orders received impacted, and will continue to impact, revenues recognized.

Total expenses increased $7.4 million, or 27%, in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. These increases resulted from the continued deliberate investment in our operations, specifically sales and marketing and research and development, through increases in our staffing company-wide, including staffing additions as a result of our recent acquisitions, and related increases in travel and entertainment, as well as increases in allocated corporate expenses such as rent and depreciation.

Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

Revenues

Primary Sources of Revenues

Our revenues include: (i) product revenues, which include licensing the right to use our software applications and selling hardware as a part of our solutions; (ii) recurring revenues, which include support fees from perpetual license agreements, renewal fees from annually renewable license agreements, and fees from our cloud-based offerings; and (iii) services revenues, which include professional services fees and educational services fees. Prior to 2012, certain subscription revenues that are recurring in nature under contract commitments for greater than 12 months were reported as part of product revenues. During the first quarter of 2012, we reclassified these revenues to recurring revenues. Historical amounts have been reclassified based on this new revenue presentation. Our revenues are generated by direct sales to customers and through our partner channels.

Product Revenues	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012			2011
	($ in thousands)
Product revenues	$	19,435		$	20,424
Change from prior year period		(5	)%		29	%
Percentage of total revenues		37	%		43	%

Product revenues decreased $989,000, or 5%, during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. This decrease was primarily dues to lower sales in Europe as well as the higher proportion of orders for our cloud-based offerings, which are recognized as recurring revenues over the expected life of the customer relationship. Product orders increased 1% in the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to the same period last year. Orders from existing customers increased 30% to 76% of product orders in the first quarter of 2012, compared to 59% in the first quarter of 2011. Orders from new customers decreased 40% compared to the same quarter last year. During the first quarter of 2012, we received 11 product orders over $250,000, compared to 21 product orders over $250,000 during the first quarter of 2011. Despite this decline in the dollar amount of new customer orders, the number of new customers was consistent period-over-period at 49 new customers.

Not all software and hardware product orders are recognized as revenues when they are received because of certain contractual terms or the collection history with particular customers or partners. Consequently, product revenues for any particular period not only reflect the orders received in the current period but also include certain orders received but deferred in previous periods and recognized in the current period. In addition, a portion of product orders are related to maintenance and support, and they are recognized over the maintenance and support period as recurring revenues.

Our geographic mix of revenues has been relatively consistent between the first quarters of 2012 and 2011. The Americas contributed 75% and 74% of product revenues in the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively, Europe, the Middle East and Africa 18% and 19%, respectively, and the Asia-Pacific region 8% and 6%, respectively.

Recurring Revenues	Three Months Ended March 31,

Recurring revenues	$	27,639		$	21,088
Change from prior year period		31	%		32	%
Percentage of total revenues		52	%		44	%

Recurring revenues include the maintenance and support from perpetual and annually renewable contracts, the annual renewal of these contracts, and revenues from our cloud-based solutions.

The breakdown of the recurring revenues was as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012		2011
	($ in thousands)
Renewal and support fees	$	22,642	$	18,213
Cloud-based		4,997		2,875
Total	$	27,639	$	21,088

Recurring revenues increased $6.5 million, or 31%, during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Maintenance and support fees increased as a result of the continued growth of our installed base of premise customers and recent acquisitions.

Cloud-based revenues increased 73% year-over-year. These revenues are recognized over the contract term, which is typically three to five years, and we invoice customers monthly for the services performed. Cloud-based orders were 29% of total customer orders for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 26% for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Our unrecognized cloud-based revenues were $40.7 million and $18.6 million as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These amounts are not included in deferred revenues on our balance sheet, but represent the remaining minimum value of non-cancellable agreements that have not been invoiced.

Renewal rates for license and support fees in the three months ended March 31, 2012 were consistent with the renewal rates in the three months ended March 31, 2011.

We believe recurring revenues will continue to grow with further expansion of our installed base of customers and the growing demand for our cloud-based solutions, particularly as we continue to expand our cloud-based offerings worldwide through data centers in Australia, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States. We plan to open an additional data center in Brazil in the third quarter of 2012.

Services Revenues	Three Months Ended March 31,

	($ in thousands)
Services revenues	$	5,694		$	6,218
Change from prior year period		(8	)%		88	%
Percentage of total revenues		11	%		13	%

Services revenues primarily include revenues related to professional services and education.

Services revenues decreased $524,000, or 8%, during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. This decrease was primarily due to the deferral of $1.6 million of professional services revenues in the first quarter of 2012 compared to $426,000 deferred in the first quarter of 2011. Professional services revenues related to cloud-based implementations contracted prior to 2012 are deferred over the life of the customer relationship. Beginning in 2012, our resellers began selling and installing our cloud-based offering, which has allowed us to separately identify the installation services related to our cloud-based implementations. Revenue from such contracts entered into during and subsequent to the first quarter 2012 will be recognized as the work is performed.

Services revenues have and will continue to fluctuate based on the number of attendees at our educational classes and the amount of assistance our customers and partners need for implementation. We believe services revenues will continue to grow as product and recurring revenues increase, order sizes increase and as we license more of our solutions directly to our customers.

Cost of Product Revenues

Cost of product revenues consists of hardware costs (including media servers, Interaction Gateway ® appliances and Interaction SIP Stations TM that we develop, as well as servers, telephone handsets and gateways that we purchase and resell), royalties for third-party software and other technologies included in our solutions, personnel costs and product distribution facility costs. These costs can fluctuate depending on which software applications are licensed to our customers and partners, the third-party software that is licensed by the end-user from us and the dollar amount of orders for hardware and appliances.

Cost of product revenues decreased $544,000 during the first quarter of 2012 compared to the same quarter in 2011 primarily due to a decline in hardware orders from premise-based sales as well as lower amounts of hardware orders resulting from the growth in cloud-based sales.

Cost of Recurring Revenues

Cost of recurring revenues consists primarily of compensation expenses for technical support personnel and costs associated with our cloud-based offering. Cost of recurring revenues increased $2.0 million, or 37%, during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011, primarily due to a $1.2 million increase in compensation expenses related to a 49% increase in staff to support our expanding customer base and growing number of cloud-based implementations, as well as from acquistions. Additionally, allocated corporate expenses, which include occupancy costs, increased $247,000 as a result of this increase in staff. Expenses related to our cloud-based offering increased $260,000 due to data center and other related costs.

Some costs related to our cloud-based offerings, such as equipment costs, are recognized over time, but others such as salary and travel-related expenses are recognized as incurred. Certain of these costs are fixed while others are variable based on usage and call volume. We expect cost of recurring revenues to increase as new customers are added and revenues increase. As we continue to expand our cloud-based offerings, the operating margins associated with these offerings will be lower than our long-term expectations; however, we believe that over time, these operating margins will increase and eventually be similar to our current gross margin.

Cost of Services Revenues

Cost of services revenues consists primarily of compensation expenses for professional services and educational personnel. Cost of services revenues increased by $862,000, or 23%, during the first quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to an increase of $1.4 million in compensation expenses as well as $330,000 in allocated corporate expenses and travel expenses, both resulting from a 37% staffing increase resulting from the hiring of additional staff and due to acquisitions. These increases were partially offset by the deferral of professional services cost related to implementation services for cloud-based customers, which increased $860,000 compared to the same period in 2011 and will be recognized over the expected life of the customer.

Gross Profit	Three Months Ended March 31,

Gross profit	$	35,267		$	32,505
Change from prior year period		8	%		32	%
Percentage of total revenues		67	%		68	%

Gross profit as a percentage of total revenues in any particular period reflects the amount of product, recurring and services revenues recognized and the cost of product, recurring and services incurred.

Gross profit increased by $2.8 million, or 8%, during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 as a result of the impact of the factors discussed above.

Operating Expenses

Sales and Marketing	Three Months Ended March 31,

Sales and marketing expenses	$	17,422		$	14,157
Change from prior year period		23	%		37	%
Percentage of total revenues		33	%		30	%

Sales and marketing expenses primarily include compensation, travel, and promotional costs related to our direct sales, marketing, client success and channel management operations for premise-based and cloud-based deployments. These expenses increased by $3.3 million, or 23%, during the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011 primarily due to an increase in compensation expense of $2.6 million, an increase in travel related expenses of $564,000, and a $326,000 increase in allocated corporate expenses related to a 38% staffing increase resulting from the hiring of additional staff and due to acquisitions. Additionally, corporate marketing expenses increased $314,000 year-over-year due to increased spending on promotional events and various advertising and lead-generating activities.

We expect sales and marketing expenses to increase in future periods as we continue expanding our sales capacity and increasing our marketing and other promotional efforts. We believe these investments are critical to our future growth, particularly as we continue to move up-market by selling to larger accounts and expanding internationally. In addition, if more customers choose our cloud-based deployment, sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues may increase because revenues for cloud-based deployments are recognized over time while sales and marketing expenses are generally recognized as incurred.

Research and development expenses	$	10,380		$	8,147
Change from prior year period		27	%		27	%

Research and development expenses are comprised primarily of compensation cost, allocated corporate costs and depreciation expenses. These expenses increased by $2.2 million, or 27%, during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011 due to an increase in compensation expense of $1.8 million resulting from a 27% increase in research and development staff, as well as an increase of $372,000 in allocated corporate expenses.

We believe that continued investment in research and development is critical to our future growth, particularly because our competitive position in the marketplace is directly related to the timely development of new and enhanced solutions. As a result, we expect research and development expenses will continue to increase in future periods.

General and administrative expenses	$	6,888		$	5,095

Percentage of total revenues		13	%		11	%

General and administrative expenses include compensation expense as well as general corporate expenses that are not allocable to other departments, such as legal and other professional fees and bad debt expense. General and administrative expenses increased $1.8 million, or 35%, during the first quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to an increase in compensation expense of $767,000 related to a 30% increase in staffing as well as an increase of $458,000 in allocated corporate expenses. Additionally, fees related to professional services increased $249,000 due to recent acquisitions and various other legal matters within the normal course of business.

We expect that general and administrative expenses will continue to increase as we pursue additional acquisitions and expand our infrastructure consistent with our growth strategy.

Return on investments		0.80	%		0.19	%

Interest income, net, primarily consists of interest earned from investments and interest-bearing cash accounts. Interest expense and fees, which were not material in any years reported, are also included in this category.

Interest earned on investments increased during the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011 as a result of higher cash and investment balances. Additionally, increases in investments with maturities between one and three years have resulted in higher yields.

We continue to monitor the allocation of funds in which we have invested to maximize our return on investment within our established investment policy. During the first quarter of 2011, we began investing in longer-term investments with maturities of up to three years to increase our overall yield on investments. We do not have any investments in subprime assets.

Other Expense, Net	Three Months Ended March 31,

Other expense, net	$	(184	)	$	(166	)

Other expense, net includes foreign currency transaction gains and losses. These gains and losses can fluctuate based on the amount of receivables that are generated in certain international currencies, the exchange gain or loss that results from foreign currency disbursements and receipts, and the cash balances and exchange rates at the end of a reporting period. Other expense included $173,000 and $166,000 of foreign currency losses during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The expense was mainly due to the change in value in the euro and Australian dollar. We continue to explore ways to mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations in the future.

Income Tax Expense	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012		2011
	($ in thousands)
Income tax expense	$	85	$	1,704

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was based on our expected annual rate of 36%; however, if the federal research and development tax credit is extended through 2012, our effective tax rate is expected to be 34%. This tax rate was determined by considering the annual expected federal tax rate, rates in various states and international jurisdictions in which we have operations, and a portion of the amount of stock-based compensation that is not deductible for income tax purposes.

We have historically used a cost plus basis for calculating taxes in most foreign tax jurisdictions in which we operate. A cost plus tax basis limits the taxes paid in these foreign jurisdictions to a markup of the costs that we incur in these jurisdictions and is not tied to the actual revenues generated. During the first quarter of 2012, we switched two of our foreign subsidiaries from the cost plus basis to a reseller basis.

Net income (loss) before taxes for our foreign subsidiaries, under both the cost plus and reseller models, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $(2.1) million and $400,000, respectively. The recorded foreign tax benefit (expense) for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $660,000 and $(69,000), respectively. The foreign tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was due to switching two of our foreign subsidiaries to the reseller model. The impact of the foreign effective income tax rates could become material as we expand our operations in foreign countries and calculate foreign income taxes based on operating results in those countries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generate cash from the collection of payments related to licensing our products as well as from selling hardware, renewals of annual licenses and maintenance and support agreements, and the delivery of other services. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we also received $1.3 million in cash from the exercise of stock options and $141,000 from purchases of common stock under our 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. We use cash primarily for paying our employees (including salaries, commissions and benefits), leasing office space, paying travel expenses, marketing activities, paying vendors for hardware, other services and supplies, purchasing property and equipment, paying research and development costs and funding acquisitions. We acquired ATIO for approximately $7.0 million in cash during the first quarter of 2012. We continue to be debt free.

We determine liquidity by combining cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments as shown in the table below. Based on our recent performance and current expectations, we believe that our current liquidity position, when combined with our anticipated cash flows from operations, will be sufficient to satisfy our working capital needs and current or expected obligations associated with our operations over the next 12 months and into the foreseeable future. Our largest potential capital outlay in the future would be for potential acquisitions. If our liquidity is not sufficient to purchase a targeted company with our existing cash, we may need to raise additional capital, either through the capital markets or debt financings.

	March 31, 2012		December 31, 2011
	($ in thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	25,616	$	28,465
Short-term investments		39,076		40,589
Long-term investments		24,440		23,415
Total liquidity	$	89,132	$	92,469

The amount that we report as cash and cash equivalents or as short-term investments fluctuates depending on investing decisions in each period. Purchases of short-term investments are reported as a use of cash and the related receipt of proceeds upon maturity of investments is reported as a source of cash.

The majority of cash held in foreign accounts is the property of Interactive Intelligence. We believe that these funds can be transferred into the U.S. with limited tax consequences. As of March 31, 2012, Interactive Intelligence held a total of $6.6 million in its various foreign bank accounts and our foreign subsidiaries held a total of $9.8 million in their various bank accounts. Our foreign subsidiaries had $6.4 million in undistributed earnings as of March 31, 2012. If we were to repatriate all of those earnings to Interactive Intelligence in the form of dividends, the incremental U.S. federal income tax net of applicable foreign tax credits would be approximately $1.0 million.

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had accounts with euro balances of approximately $9.3 million and $7.9 million, respectively, British pound balances of $830,000 and $1.6 million, respectively, Australian dollar balances of $2.8 million and $2.3 million, respectively, South African rand balances of approximately $280,000 and $7.2 million, respectively, and balances of nine other foreign currencies totaling $3.2 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

The following table shows cash flows from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities for the stated periods:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012			2011

Beginning cash and cash equivalents	$	28,465		$	48,300
Cash provided by operating activities		4,419			6,667
Cash used in investing activities		(9,003	)		(7,936	)
Cash provided by financing activities		1,735			4,839
Ending cash and cash equivalents	$	25,616		$	51,870

Cash provided by operating activities during both periods was generated primarily by our net income adjusted for routine fluctuations in our operating assets and liabilities. The cash used in investing activities increased year-over-year due to the continued transferring of a portion of our cash to short-term and long-term investment vehicles in the first quarter of 2012, as well as the purchase of ATIO during the first quarter of 2012. Cash provided by financing activities during both periods was primarily due to proceeds from stock options exercised.

Contractual Obligations

As of March 31, 2012, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations as set forth in the Contractual Obligations table disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Except as set forth in the Contractual Obligations table disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, we have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material impact on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources as of March 31, 2012.

We provide indemnifications of varying scope and amount to certain customers against claims of intellectual property infringement made by third parties arising from the use of our products. Our software license agreements, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 460, Guarantees, include certain provisions for indemnifying customers, in material compliance with their license agreement, against liabilities if our software products infringe upon a third party's intellectual property rights, over the life of the agreement. We are not able to estimate the potential exposure related to the indemnification provisions of our license agreements but have not incurred expenses under these indemnification provisions. We may at any time and at our option and expense: (i) procure the right of the customer to continue to use our software that may infringe a third party’s rights; (ii) modify our software so as to avoid infringement; or (iii) require the customer to return our software and refund the customer the fee actually paid by the customer for our software less depreciation based on a five-year straight-line depreciation schedule. The customer’s failure to provide timely notice or reasonable assistance will relieve us of our obligations under this indemnification to the extent that we have been actually and materially prejudiced by such failure. To date, we have not incurred, nor do we expect to incur, any material related costs and, therefore, have not reserved for such liabilities.

Our software license agreements also include a warranty that our software products will substantially conform to our software user documentation for a period of one year, provided the customer is in material compliance with the software license agreement. To date, we have not incurred any material costs associated with these product warranties, and as such, we have not reserved for any such warranty liabilities in our operating results.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from those estimates and judgments under different assumptions or conditions. We have discussed the critical accounting policies that we believe affect our more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of the Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 and in Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. For a further summary of certain accounting policies, see Note 2 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We develop software application products in the United States and license our products worldwide. As a result, our financial results could be affected by market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates or weak economic conditions in certain markets. Market risk is the potential of loss arising from unfavorable changes in market rates and prices.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

We transact business in certain foreign currencies including the British pound, Canadian dollar, South African rand, Australian dollar and the euro. However, as a majority of the orders we receive are denominated in United States dollars, a strengthening of the dollar could make our products more expensive and less competitive in foreign markets. During 2010, we began hedging both our accounts receivable and cash that are held in euros. As of March 31, 2012, we had hedging arrangements in British pounds, Canadian dollars and the euro. Prior to 2010, we had not historically used foreign currency options or forward contracts to hedge our currency exposures. We continue to mitigate our foreign currency risk by generally transacting business and paying salaries in the functional currency of each of the major countries in which we do business, thus creating natural hedges. Additionally, as our business matures in foreign markets, we may offer our products and services in certain other local currencies. If this were to occur, foreign currency fluctuations could have a greater impact on us and may have an adverse effect on our results of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, our foreign currency transaction losses amounted to $173,000.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, approximately 8% of our revenues and 19% of our expenses were denominated in a foreign currency. As of March 31, 2012, we had net monetary assets valued in foreign currencies subject to foreign currency transaction gains or (losses), consisting primarily of cash and receivables, partially offset by accounts payable, with a carrying value of approximately $17.2 million. A 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates if not hedged would have changed the carrying value of these net assets by approximately $1.7 million as of March 31, 2012, with a corresponding foreign currency gain (loss) recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of income.

Interest Rate Risk

We invest cash balances in excess of operating requirements in securities that have maturities of three years or less and are diversified among security types. The carrying value of these securities approximates market value. These securities bear interest at fixed interest rates. Based on the weighted average maturities of the investments, if market interest rates were to increase by 100 basis points from the level at March 31, 2012, the fair value of our portfolio would decrease by approximately $579,000.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures.

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed by us under the Exchange Act is (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (b) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2012, pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2012.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors.

In addition to the information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and before deciding to invest in, or retain, shares of our common stock, you also should carefully review and consider the information contained in our other reports and periodic filings that we make with the SEC, including, without limitation, the information contained under the caption Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Those risk factors could materially affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The risks that we describe in our public filings are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we presently deem to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
