EXACTTARGET, INC. - 10-K - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Edgar Glimpses Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our consolidated
financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Annual
Report on Form 10-K. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to 2012, 2011
and 2010 mean our fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, as
applicable.
Overview
We are a leading global provider of cross-channel, digital marketing SaaS
solutions that empower organizations of all sizes to communicate with their
customers through the digital channels they use most - email, mobile, social
media and websites. Our solutions provide marketers with a broad and powerful
suite of integrated applications to plan, automate, deliver and optimize
data-driven digital marketing campaigns and real-time communications to drive
customer engagement, increase sales and improve their return on marketing
investment. Our direct client base consists of organizations ranging from
enterprises to small businesses in numerous industries, including retail and
e-commerce, media and entertainment, travel and hospitality, financial services
and insurance, internet and technology, and marketing service providers. Our
direct client base also includes marketing service providers that extend our
global sales distribution by reselling our solutions to several thousand
additional organizations.
We provide our solutions primarily through annual and multi-year subscriptions
based on the volume of contracted utilization, level of functionality, number of
digital marketing channels, number of users and level of customer support.
Clients are charged additional usage-based fees for utilization above the
contracted level. Our subscription-based model and track record of long-term
client relationships have allowed us to achieve dollar-based subscription
revenue renewal rates of over 100% in 2012, 2011 and 2010.
We face a number of risks in the execution of our strategy, including our
potential failure to manage our domestic and international growth effectively,
inability to attract new clients and retain existing clients, inability to
achieve and sustain profitability and the overall impact of uncertain economic
conditions. Due to the size and expected growth of the market opportunity, we
recognize that we may face increased competition from established vendors and
potential new entrants in our markets. We believe the expansion of our suite of
cross-channel, digital marketing SaaS solutions have been important in winning
new clients and cross selling into our existing client base.
We were founded in December 2000, and initially focused on providing email
marketing solutions to small and medium-sized clients. Since that time, we have
expanded our solutions offerings to serve the enterprise market. In 2007, we
broadened our product strategy to expand beyond email into emerging
cross-channel, digital marketing technologies such as mobile, landing pages and
microsites. In 2010, we further expanded our cross-channel, digital marketing
capabilities with the acquisition of the enterprise social media management
platform, SocialEngage (formerly CoTweet Enterprise). Additionally, we continued
to develop and improve our proprietary, cloud-based platform, expanding our
integration framework to enable third-party marketing technology providers to
embed our technology into their solutions and build applications on our
platform. In 2011, we made our Interactive Marketing Hub generally available to
clients, providing a broad and powerful suite of cross-channel, digital
marketing SaaS solutions to plan, automate, deliver and optimize data-driven
digital marketing campaigns and real-time communications. In 2012, we continued
the expansion of our cross-channel product suite with the acquisitions of
business-to-business marketing automation provider Pardot and web
personalization provider iGoDigital.
We have achieved 48 consecutive quarters of sequential revenue growth since our
inception in December 2000. In 2012, 2011 and 2010 our revenue was $292.3
million, $207.5 million and $134.3 million, respectively, representing
period-over-period growth of 41%, 55% and 41%, respectively. We were profitable
for the first time during the year ended December 31, 2006 and recorded
operating income between 8% and 9% of revenue each year from 2006 through 2008.
In 2009, we raised significant private capital and implemented a strategy
focused on increased investments in sales, marketing, research and development
activities and international expansion. This investment strategy has accelerated
our revenue growth and has also resulted in operating losses since 2009.
We have established a direct presence in international markets through
acquisitions of resellers in the United Kingdom, Australia and Brazil, and
subsequent investments in each of these operations. In August 2009, we acquired
a reseller in the United Kingdom, allowing us to directly support clients in
Europe including many of our U.S. headquartered clients doing business in the
region. In August 2010, we acquired an Australian reseller to extend our ability
to support multinational clients in the Asia-Pacific region. In August 2011, we
acquired a reseller in Sao Paulo, Brazil, to support clients in Latin America
and to expand our sales in the region.
In 2012, we established a direct presence in France, Germany and Sweden. Our
substantial investments to establish a direct presence in multiple countries
have negatively impacted our consolidated net loss. Revenue from outside the
United States as a percentage of total revenue was 18%, 14% and 8% in 2012, 2011
and 2010, respectively. As a result of our increased
35--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
investment strategy initiated in 2009, our cash flows from operations decreased
from $6.7 million in 2009 to $3.6 million in 2010 and we used $2.8 million of
cash for operations in 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2012, our cash
flows from operations increased to $22.7 million. We intend to continue to
expand our direct and indirect sales channels, expand our global reach, extend
our suite of cross-channel, digital marketing SaaS solutions and increase
revenue from new and existing clients.
Key Metrics
We use certain key metrics to evaluate and manage our business as further
described below.
Recurring Subscription Revenue. As a SaaS provider, we monitor recurring
subscription revenue to measure our success in executing our strategy to
increase the adoption of our SaaS solutions and expand our recurring revenue
streams attributable to these solutions. We expect our recurring subscription
revenue to remain the most significant portion of our total revenue although its
percentage of total revenue may vary from period to period due to a number of
factors, including the amount of revenue recognized from utilization above the
contracted level and the timing of recognition of professional services revenue.
We define recurring subscription revenue as the total amount of
contractually-committed subscription revenue under each of our client
agreements, which excludes revenue related to utilization above the contracted
level.
Year Ended December 31,
2012 2011 2010
(in thousands, except percentages)
Recurring subscription revenue (1) $ 228,722 $ 160,659 $ 106,412
Percentage of subscription revenue 98% 94% 92%
(1) Recurring subscription revenue excludes revenue related to utilization above
our clients' contracted volume level of $5.5 million, $10.0 million and $9.1
million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Subscription Revenue Renewal Rate. Our ability to retain our clients and expand
their use of our suite of cross-channel, digital marketing SaaS solutions over
time is an indicator of the stability of our revenue base and the long-term
value of our client relationships. We assess our performance in this area using
a metric we refer to as our subscription revenue renewal rate. This metric is
calculated by dividing (a) subscription revenue (including revenue related to
messaging utilization above our clients' contracted levels, but excluding
customer support) in the current period from those clients who were clients
during the prior year period, including additional sales to those clients, by
(b) subscription revenue (including revenue related to messaging utilization
above our clients' contracted levels, but excluding customer support) from all
clients in the prior year period. This metric is calculated on a quarterly basis
and, for periods longer than one quarter, we use an average of the quarterly
metrics. For each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, our
subscription revenue renewal rate was greater than 100%.
Adjusted EBITDA. We monitor Adjusted EBITDA because we believe this measure
provides important supplemental information regarding our operating performance
and is often used by investors and analysts in their evaluation of companies
such as ours. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA as a measurement of our
operating performance because it assists us in comparing our operating
performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain non-cash and
non-operating items. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before
(1) other (income) expense, which includes interest income, interest expense and
other income and expense, (2) income tax expense (benefit), (3) depreciation and
amortization of property and equipment, (4) amortization of intangible assets,
(5) stock-based compensation and (6) the impact of adjusting deferred revenue to
fair value under purchase accounting. This non-GAAP financial measure is used in
addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and
should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Adjusted
EBITDA reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that we
believe, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations
to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provides a more complete understanding
of factors and trends affecting our business.
Year Ended December 31,
2012 2011 2010
(in thousands)
Adjusted EBITDA (1) $ 15,674 $ (59 ) $ (2,769 )
(1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See "Results of Operations"
below for a reconciliation from net loss, the most directly comparable
financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, to
Adjusted EBITDA.

Table of Contents
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
We generate revenue through the sale of subscriptions to our suite of
cross-channel, digital marketing SaaS solutions and the delivery of professional
services. More than 80% of our revenue in each of 2012, 2011 and 2010 was
derived from our enterprise, medium-sized and small business clients, with the
balance attributable to marketing service providers that resell our solutions to
thousands of their customers. We serve a wide range of clients across many
industries and sizes, and our revenue is not concentrated within any single
client or small group of clients. In each of 2012, 2011 and 2010 no single
client represented more than 5% of our revenue, and our largest ten clients
accounted for less than 20% of our revenue in the aggregate.
Clients are typically invoiced in advance on an annual, quarterly or monthly
basis, with payment due upon receipt of the invoice. Invoiced amounts are
reflected on the balance sheet as accounts receivable or as cash when collected
and as deferred revenue until earned and recognized as revenue ratably over the
performance period. Accordingly, deferred revenue represents the amount billed
to clients that has not yet been earned or recognized as revenue, pursuant to
agreements entered into in current and prior periods, and does not reflect that
portion of a contract to be invoiced to clients on a periodic basis for which
payment is not yet due. In recent periods, more of our clients have requested
monthly instead of quarterly or annual billing terms. As a result, we believe
that the proportion of aggregate contract value reflected on the balance sheet
as deferred revenue may continue to decrease if this trend continues.
Subscription Revenue. Our subscriptions are based on volume of contracted
utilization, level of functionality, number of digital marketing channels,
number of users, number of records under management and level of customer
support. Utilization levels are based on the volume of email messages, SMS
messages, website impressions and other activities. If clients exceed the
specified volume of utilization, additional fees are billed for the excess
volume, generally at rates equal to or greater than the contracted minimum
per-utilization fee, and are included in subscription revenue. If clients use
less than the minimum contracted utilization, no rollover credit or refunds are
given. Subscription agreements with our clients typically are not cancellable
for a minimum period, generally one year but ranging up to three years. Our
subscription revenue as a percentage of our total revenue was as follows for the
periods presented:
Year Ended December 31,
2012 2011 2010
Subscription revenue 80% 82% 86%
We recognize the aggregate minimum subscription fee ratably on a straight-line
basis over the subscription term, provided that an enforceable contract has been
signed by both parties, access to our SaaS solutions has been granted to the
client, the fee for the subscription is fixed or determinable and collection is
reasonably assured. Revenue from utilization above the contracted level is
recognized in the period in which the utilization occurs.
Professional Services Revenue. Professional services revenue consists primarily
of fees associated with training, implementation, integration, deliverability,
campaign services and strategic consulting. Our professional services are not
required for clients to utilize our suite of cross-channel, digital marketing
SaaS solutions. Depending upon the nature of the engagement, we may provide
professional services over the term of the SaaS subscription or in connection
with discrete projects. Revenue for our professional services engagements is
recognized over the period of performance and is typically contracted on a
fixed-fee basis. Our professional services revenue as a percentage of our total
revenue was as follows for the periods presented:
Year Ended December 31,
2012 2011 2010
Professional services revenue 20% 18% 14%
Cost of Revenue
We allocate certain overhead expenses, such as rent, utilities, office supplies
and depreciation of general office assets to cost of revenue categories based on
related headcount. As a result, an overhead expense allocation is reflected in
each cost of revenue category.
Cost of Subscription Revenue. Cost of subscription revenue consists primarily
of wages and benefits for software operations personnel, as well as
depreciation, licensing, maintenance and support for hardware and software used
in production, and co-location facilities, bandwidth and infrastructure
expenses. The expenses related to co-location, bandwidth and infrastructure are
affected by the number of clients using our suite of cross-channel, digital
marketing SaaS solutions, the complexity and frequency of their use, the level
of utilization and the amount of stored data. In addition, these expenses are
affected by our
37--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
requirement to maintain high application availability. Our system hardware is
primarily hosted in three third-party operated co-location facilities, with two
located in Indianapolis, Indiana and one in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Pardot
systems are hosted by a co-location provider located in Dallas, Texas and
Seattle, Washington, and iGoDigital is hosted by facilities in Virginia and
Northern California. We expect to make further significant capital investments
in the expansion and operation of our data centers and to continue to expand our
business, which will increase our cost of subscription revenue in absolute
dollars.
Cost of Professional Services Revenue. Cost of professional services revenue
primarily consists of wages and benefits for services personnel and related
costs. Our cost of professional services revenue is significantly higher as a
percentage of associated revenue than our cost of subscription revenue due to
the labor costs associated with providing professional services. As it takes
several months to ramp up a professional services consultant to full
productivity, we generally increase our professional services capacity ahead of
the recognition of associated professional services revenue, which can result in
lower margins in a period of significant hiring. We expect the number of
professional services personnel to increase in the future as we continue to
serve more enterprise clients, resulting in higher cost of professional services
revenue in absolute dollars.
Operating Expenses
We allocate certain overhead expenses, such as rent, utilities, office supplies
and depreciation of general office assets to operating expense categories based
on related headcount. As a result, an overhead expense allocation is reflected
in each operating expense category.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of wages
and benefits for sales and marketing personnel, sales commissions, travel and
meeting expenses and lead-generation marketing programs. All sales and marketing
costs are expensed as incurred. In particular, sales bonuses are expensed in the
period of contract signing and commissions are expensed upon contract billing.
Our sales and marketing expenditures have historically been highest in the last
two quarters of each year, which are periods of increased sales and marketing
activity. In order to continue to grow our business and increase our brand
awareness, we expect to continue investing substantial resources in our sales
and marketing efforts. As a result, we expect sales and marketing expenses to
increase as we invest to acquire new clients and retain and grow revenue from
existing clients.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses consist primarily
of wages and benefits for product strategy, product architecture, product
design, development and quality assurance personnel, and the costs of
third-party development contractors. We focus our research and development
efforts on usability, application performance, new features and functionality
and development of emerging cross-channel marketing technologies. We expense
research and development costs as incurred due to our relatively short
development cycle. We expect research and development expenses to increase as we
continue to enhance our product offerings.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of wages and benefits for executive, finance and accounting, legal,
human resources, internal information technology support and administrative
personnel. In addition, general and administrative expenses include professional
services fees, bad debt expenses and other corporate expenses. We expect that
general and administrative expenses will increase as we continue to add
personnel to support our growth. We also anticipate that we will continue to
incur additional costs for personnel and for professional services including
auditing and legal services, insurance and other corporate governance-related
costs related to operating as a public company.
Provision for Income Taxes
We are subject to taxes in the United States as well as other tax jurisdictions
in which we conduct business. Earnings from our non-U.S. activities are subject
to local income tax and may be subject to current U.S. income tax.
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating
loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. We
record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount whose
realization is more likely than not.
We recognize tax benefits from uncertain tax positions when it is more likely
than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including
resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the
technical merits of the position. We record interest and penalties related to
unrecognized tax benefits in our provision for income taxes.
38--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
As of December 31, 2012, we had recorded a full valuation allowance on our
deferred tax assets. In the third quarter of 2011, we decided to explore the
opportunity to launch an initial public offering and, as a result, we determined
that it was no longer more likely than not that our deferred tax assets would be
realized due to continued planned business investment with the proceeds of our
initial public offering. We previously overcame the negative evidence provided
by our recent losses by demonstrating that we had generated income in 2008, 2007
and 2006 and using that information to show our ability to generate taxable
income from existing client contracts if our planned investments were not made.
In making such determination, we considered all available positive and negative
evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences,
projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial
operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation
of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses
and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and
assumptions. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions. See also Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere
in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for information about these critical
accounting policies, as well as a description of our other significant
accounting policies.
We are an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act and, except as set forth
below, will take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting
requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging
growth companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth
company can take advantage of the extended transition period in
Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933 for complying with new or
revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can
delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would
otherwise apply to private companies. However, we have chosen to opt out of such
extended transition period, and as a result, we will comply with new or revised
accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards
is required for non-emerging growth companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act
provides that our decision to opt out of the extended transition period for
complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable.
We believe that of our significant accounting policies, which are described in
the notes to our consolidated financial statements, the following accounting
policies involve the greatest degree of judgment and complexity and have the
greatest potential impact on our consolidated financial statements. A critical
accounting policy is one that is material to the presentation of our
consolidated financial statements and requires us to make difficult, subjective
or complex judgments for uncertain matters that could have a material effect on
our financial condition and results of operations. Accordingly, these are the
policies we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and
evaluating our financial condition and results of operations.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue for subscriptions to our suite of cross-channel, digital
marketing SaaS solutions ratably over the term of the subscription agreement,
which is typically one year in length but can range up to three years,
commencing upon the later of the agreement start date or such time as there is
persuasive evidence of an arrangement, access to our SaaS solutions has been
granted to the client, the collection of the fee is reasonably assured and the
fees to be paid by the client are fixed or determinable. Amounts that have been
invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and deferred revenue until revenue
recognition criteria have been met. Our subscription agreements generally
contain multiple elements including access to our SaaS solutions, contracted
utilization volume and professional services. In addition, we charge fees for
utilization above the contracted level which are recognized in the period in
which the utilization occurs. Our subscription agreements do not provide clients
the right to take possession of the software supporting the SaaS solution at any
time.
We also derive revenue from professional services. Professional services revenue
consists primarily of fees associated with training, implementation,
integration, deliverability, campaign services and strategic consulting. Our
professional services are not required for clients to utilize our SaaS
solutions. Depending upon the nature of the engagement, we may provide
professional services over the term of the SaaS subscription or in connection
with discrete projects. Revenue from professional services is recognized using a
proportional performance model based on services performed. Professional
services, when sold with our subscriptions, are accounted for separately when
these services have value to the client on a standalone basis.
Our revenue recognition methodology requires assumptions and judgments to be
made by management regarding the amount and timing of credit allowances and
considerations of collectibility. Further, our determination of the best
estimate of selling price or BESP is based on an analysis of the historical
pricing with respect to both our bundled and standalone arrangements. We have
not made any material changes in the methodology we utilize to determine these
assumptions nor do we believe there is a reasonable likelihood there will be a
material change in the future. However, if actual results are not consistent
with our estimates or assumptions, we may be exposed to adjustments of the
timing of revenue recognition that could be material.
39--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating
loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
In assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, management considers
whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax
assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is
dependent upon generation of future taxable income during the periods in which
temporary differences such as loss carry-forwards and tax credits become
deductible. Management considers projected future taxable income and tax
planning strategies in making this assessment and ensuring that the deferred tax
asset valuation allowance is adjusted as appropriate.
Our position on unrecognized tax benefits contains uncertainties because it
requires management to make assumptions and apply judgment to estimate the
exposure associated with our various filing positions. We believe our judgments
and estimates are reasonable, but actual results could differ.
Acquisitions
We allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and
intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based upon their estimated
fair values at the acquisition date. The purchase price allocation process
requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at
the acquisition date with respect to items such as intangible assets and
deferred revenue obligations. In valuing the intangible assets we have acquired,
future expected cash flows are estimated based on various assumptions and
management's judgment. Outside valuation specialists also assist management in
determining the fair value of identifiable intangible assets.
Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made are reasonable,
they are based in part on historical experience and information obtained from
the management of the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. We do not
believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change in
the estimates or assumptions we use to complete the purchase price allocation
and estimate the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities. However, if
actual results are not consistent with our estimates and assumptions, we may be
exposed to losses that could be material.
Goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually or whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be
recoverable. We have determined that we operate in one reporting unit and have
selected October 31 as the date to perform our annual impairment test. In the
valuation of our goodwill, we must make assumptions regarding certain
qualitative factors including macroeconomic conditions, industry and market
conditions, cost factors, financial performance and other events, to determine
if further impairment testing is necessary. If further impairment testing is
necessary, management must also make assumptions regarding estimated future cash
flows, discount rates and comparable growth data to be derived from our
reporting unit. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the
future, we may be required to record an impairment for these assets.
This type of analysis contains uncertainties because it requires management to
make assumptions and apply judgment to estimate industry economic factors and
the profitability of future business strategies. We do not believe there is a
reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change in the estimates or
assumptions we use to determine the potential for impairment losses. However, if
actual results are not consistent with our estimates and assumptions, we may be
exposed to losses that could be material. The carrying value of goodwill was
$108.2 million and $18.4 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively,
and there was no impairment as of the date of our annual impairment test.
Stock-Based Compensation
We value all stock-based compensation, including grants of stock options and
restricted stock awards, at fair value on the date of grant, and expense the
fair value over the applicable service period. The straight-line method is
applied to all awards since only service conditions apply. Determining the
appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of stock-based
payment awards requires the use of highly subjective assumptions, including the
expected life of the stock-based payment awards and stock price volatility. We
have used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value our option grants and
determine the related compensation expense.
40--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
The following assumptions were used to determine fair values of option grants
and related compensation expense:
Year ended December 31,
2012 2011 2010
Expected volatility 53.84 % - 55.54% 54.99 % - 57.78% 59.07 % - 62.07%
Risk free interest rate 0.65 % - 0.92% 0.95 % - 2.12% 1.50 % - 2.43%
Expected dividend yield -% -% -%
Expected option term (in years) 6.25 6.25 6.25
Fair value of options granted $8.83 $4.56 $3.02
The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based payment awards
represent management's best estimates, but the estimates involve inherent
uncertainties and the application of management's judgment. As a result, if
factors change and we use different assumptions, our stock-based compensation
expense could be materially different in the future. There is inherent
uncertainty in our forecasts and projections, and if we had made different
assumptions and estimates than those described above, the amount of our
stock-based compensation expense, net income and net income per share amounts
could have been materially different.

2012 compared to 2011. The $63.5 million of growth in subscription revenue was
primarily attributable to increased revenue from new direct client additions,
including new direct clients added outside of the United States as a result of
our continued investments in international operations. Subscription revenue from
international clients increased by $18.8 million, or 81%, from $23.3 million to
$42.1 million in 2012. Other contributing factors included the full period
impact of recognition of revenue from new clients added throughout 2011 and a
larger base of renewal clients. Revenue from utilization above the contracted
level decreased by $4.5 million, or 45%, from $10.0 million in 2011 to $5.5
million in 2012. Revenue associated with utilization above the contracted level
decreased due to more existing clients renewing at higher contracted utilization
volumes.
The $21.3 million of growth in professional services revenue was attributable to
the acceleration of new direct client additions utilizing implementation,
integration and other services. We continue to experience an increase in the
number of enterprise and medium-sized clients with complex digital marketing
programs utilizing our professional services. Furthermore, our growth in
international operations indicated above, has resulted in increased professional
services evidenced by an increase in professional services revenue from
international operations of $5.5 million, or 98%, to $11.0 million in 2012.
2011 compared to 2010. The $55.1 million of growth in subscription revenue was
primarily attributable to increased revenue from new direct client additions and
the full period impact of recognition of revenue from new clients added during
the prior period, a larger base of renewal clients and growth in the United
Kingdom and Australia. Subscription revenue recognized from international
clients increased by $13.2 million, or 130%, from $10.1 million in 2010 to $23.3
million for 2011. Revenue from utilization above the contracted level increased
by $0.9 million, or 10%, from $9.1 million in 2010 to $10.0 million for 2011.
Revenue associated with utilization above the contracted level increased in
total dollars, but decreased as a percentage of total revenue due to a larger
base of existing clients renewing at higher contracted utilization volumes.
The $18.1 million of growth in professional services revenue was attributable to
an increase in the number of enterprise and medium-sized clients and additional
clients utilizing our implementation, integration and other services as well as
increased activity in our international operations.

2012 compared to 2011. The $16.4 million increase in cost of subscription
revenue was due in part to a $4.5 million increase in employee-related costs due
to the net addition of 86 employees in 2012, primarily in our customer support
and software operations team to support our larger base of clients and our
international expansion. Cost of subscription revenue also increased due to a
$3.9 million increase in depreciation and amortization costs related to
equipment and software in our data centers, a $5.7 million increase in costs
related to enhancing and expanding our global infrastructure and a $1.3 million
increase in purchases of third-party partner applications and products for
resale to our clients.
44--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
The $17.0 million increase in cost of professional services revenue was
primarily due to a $9.6 million increase in employee-related costs due to the
addition of more than 70 product solution and global support personnel during
2012. Cost of professional services revenue also increased $1.9 million due to
travel and meeting expenses, partially due to continued expansion of our
international operations and a $3.9 million increase in payments to third-party
professional services consultants as demand for our integration services have
increased.
2011 compared to 2010. The $14.5 million increase in cost of subscription
revenue was due in part to a $4.7 million increase in employee-related costs due
to the net addition of 44 employees in 2011, primarily in our customer support
and software operations team to support our larger base of clients and our
international expansion. Cost of subscription revenue also increased due to a
$3.6 million increase in depreciation and amortization costs related to
equipment and software in our data centers, a $1.8 million increase in operating
costs related to enhancing and expanding our infrastructure and a $2.2 million
increase in purchases of third-party partner applications and products for
resale to our clients.
The $11.9 million increase in cost of professional services revenue was
primarily due to a $6.2 million increase in employee-related costs due to the
net addition of 114 professional services personnel in 2011. Cost of
professional services revenue also increased due to a $2.0 million increase in
payments to third-party professional services consultants and a $1.0 million
increase related to travel and meeting expenses due to the increase in
professional services personnel to support our larger base of clients and
international expansion.

2012 compared to 2011. Our subscription revenue gross profit increased $47.1
million in absolute dollars and was unchanged as a percentage of associated
revenue. This increase in terms of absolute dollars is attributable to the
growth in the number of clients and our ability to grow revenues while
controlling costs as a percentage of revenues.
Professional services revenue gross profit increased $4.3 million in absolute
dollars and was unchanged as a percentage of associated revenue. The increase
was due in part to the growth in the number of clients using our professional
services in the U.S. and other countries as well as the prior year adoption of a
new accounting standard for revenue recognition of multiple deliverable
arrangements on a prospective basis as disclosed previously. This prospective
accounting change, along with increased revenue in the U.S. and other countries
and leveraging the prior year investment in our professional services headcount,
resulted in a 62% increase in professional services gross profit.
2011 compared to 2010. Our subscription revenue gross profit increased $40.7
million in absolute dollars, but decreased as a percentage of associated
revenue. This decrease in gross profit as a percentage of associated revenue, or
gross margin, was attributable to the increased use of our solutions and scaling
for future growth. This activity resulted in higher third-party data center
costs and associated hardware and software costs, along with increased
employee-related costs in our customer support and software operations team.
The $6.2 million increase in professional services revenue gross profit was due
in part to the prospective adoption of a new accounting standard for revenue
recognition of multiple deliverable arrangements, specifically related to
professional services revenue and the growth in the number of clients using our
professional services. Revenue from professional services is recognized using a
proportional performance model based on services performed. Prior to January 1,
2011, professional services revenue was recognized ratably over the subscription
term.

2012 compared to 2011. The $21.8 million increase in sales and marketing
expenses was primarily due to a $13.0 million increase in employee-related
costs, including sales commissions and bonuses, due to the net addition of 168
sales and marketing employees during 2012. It also reflected an increase of $3.9
million in marketing program and expenses for events, such as our Connections
2012 client conference, and an increase in travel and meeting expenses of
$2.7 million. Our sales and marketing team size increased as we continued our
expansion both domestically and abroad in Brazil, Europe and Australia. As a
percentage of total revenue, sales and marketing expenses decreased 6 percentage
points due to revenue growing at a faster rate than expenses during the period.
2011 compared to 2010. The $29.6 million increase in sales and marketing
expenses was primarily due to a $11.4 million increase in employee-related costs
due to the net addition of 80 sales and marketing employees in 2011 and an $8.4
million increase in sales commissions and bonuses as a result of increased sales
and performance that exceeded our sales targets. It also reflects an increase in
travel and meeting expenses of $3.3 million and an increase in marketing program
and event expenses of $1.4 million. Our sales and marketing headcount increased

2012 compared to 2011. Other expense consists of realized foreign exchange
gains and losses, interest income and expense. Other expense for 2012 was $0.6
million compared to $1.0 million for 2011. The decrease in other expense is
primarily due to lower interest expense incurred as a result of the repayment in
full and termination of our loan and security agreement as further described in
the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section below.
2011 compared to 2010. Other expense consists primarily of interest income and
expense and foreign exchange gains and losses. The change in other expense
resulted from a $0.6 million increase in interest expense, primarily related to
the full year of interest on borrowings under our loan and security agreement
executed in November 2010. There was also an increase of $0.2 million in foreign
exchange losses related to foreign currency transactions in our international
locations.

2012 compared to 2011. Income tax expense of no amount in 2012 compared to
$10.8 million in 2011 is due to our determination in September of 2011 that it
was no longer more likely than not that our deferred tax assets would be
realized due to continued planned business investment. In making such
determination, we considered all available positive and negative evidence,
including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected
future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial results.
Accordingly, we established a full valuation allowance against the net deferred
tax assets in the third quarter of 2011.
2011 compared to 2010. Income tax expense of $10.8 million in 2011 compared to
an income tax benefit of $6.1 million in 2010 is due to our determination in
2011 that it was no longer more likely than not that our deferred tax assets
would be realized due to continued planned business investment.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through the
proceeds from the issuance of our preferred stock, borrowings under credit
facilities, cash flows from operations and the proceeds of our initial public
offering. In November 2010, we entered into a senior secured loan and security
agreement providing for both a $10.0 million bank term loan and a revolving line
of credit collateralized by a blanket lien on substantially all of our personal
property, including intellectual property. As of December 31, 2011, $6.7 million
was outstanding under the term loan and $10.0 million was outstanding under the
revolving line. In March 2012, we repaid all outstanding amounts under our loan
and security agreement and in April 2012, we terminated our loan and security
agreement.
At December 31, 2012, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash
equivalents totaling $69.2 million and short-term investments of $40.2 million.

Operating Activities
For the year ended December 31, 2012, net cash provided by operating activities
was $22.7 million attributable to the net loss from operations of $21.0 million,
more than offset by the add back of non-cash charges for depreciation and
stock-based compensation expense, along with positive net cash flow from working
capital accounts further described below.
The net cash used in 2011 of $2.8 million was attributable to the net loss from
operations of $35.4 million and changes in working capital accounts, offset by
adjustments to reconcile an increase in our net loss to net cash used in
operations including the add-back for the $10.5 million valuation allowance on
our deferred tax assets, depreciation and amortization expense and stock-based
compensation expense.
The 2010 net cash inflow of $3.6 million resulted primarily from changes in
working capital accounts, the receipt of a tax refund, and the add back of
non-cash charges for depreciation and stock-based compensation expense, which
were offset by a loss from operations.
The changes in working capital items consisted primarily of the following (in
each case reflecting amounts as of the dates indicated and amount of change from
the prior period):
Accounts Receivable
As of December 31,
2012 2011 2010
(in thousands, except percentages)
Accounts receivable, net $ 55,911 $ 43,380 $ 27,589
Dollar change from prior period 12,531 15,791 7,022
Percentage change from prior period 29% 57% 34%
The increases in accounts receivable were due to continued growth in invoiced
amounts to our clients, reduced by collections on existing receivables. We
generally invoice clients prior to recognizing the associated revenue in full.
In recent periods, more of our clients have requested monthly instead of
quarterly or annual billing terms. As of December 31, 2012, accounts receivable
increased 29% from December 31, 2011 primarily as a result of a 41% increase in
revenue offset by favorable performance in collections. Our accounts receivable
are primarily held in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia and Brazil
where we believe economic conditions are stable and collectibility is good.
In 2011, accounts receivable increased at a higher rate than in prior years due
in part to a larger percentage of client contracts executed and invoices
generated in the last month of the fourth quarter of 2011.
Deferred Revenue
As of December 31,
2012 2011 2010
(in thousands, except percentages)
Total deferred revenue(1) $ 58,962 $ 40,423 $ 32,966
Dollar change from prior period 18,539 7,457 8,548
Percentage change from prior period 46% 23% 35%
(1) Includes deferred revenue included in long-term obligations and other.
48--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
The increases in total deferred revenue were due to continued growth in invoiced
amounts under our subscription agreements, offset by the recognition of revenue.
The growth in invoiced amounts was primarily due to new direct client additions,
a larger base of renewal clients and increases in revenue associated with our
international operations.
Deferred revenue represents the amount billed to clients that has not yet been
earned or recognized as revenue, pursuant to agreements entered into in current
and prior periods, and does not reflect that portion of subscriptions and
professional services to be invoiced to clients on a periodic basis for which
payment is not yet due. In recent periods, more of our clients have requested
monthly instead of quarterly or annual billing terms. As a result, we believe
that the proportion of aggregate contract value reflected on the balance sheet
as deferred revenue may continue to decrease if this trend continues. This trend
may reduce the amount of deferred revenue, accounts receivable and cash inflow
in our financial statements.
Accrued Compensation

Dollar change from prior period 4,336 4,024 4,184
Percentage change from prior period 31% 40% 70%
As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the increase of 31% and 40%, respectively, was
primarily driven by the increase in the number of our employees as well as
timing and size of the payments of our annual performance bonuses and
commissions. These amounts are paid out in the first quarter of the following
year.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $173.5 million, $33.9 million and
$24.6 million during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. During the fourth
quarter of 2012, we purchased $40.2 million of high quality diversified
investment grade securities that are classified as available-for-sale as we do
not intend to hold these securities to maturity. Net cash used in investing
activities also consisted of payments in the amounts of $100.8 million, $2.7
million, and $5.8 million made during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related
to our acquisitions further described in the notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements. Investing activity also reflects the cash used to purchase fixed
assets to expand our data center infrastructure, computer equipment and office
furniture for our employees as well as leasehold improvements related to
additional office space. Net cash used in investing activities did not include
$5.5 million, $4.2 million and $3.1 million of fixed assets capitalized in 2012,
2011 and 2010, respectively, as payments were made in the subsequent periods.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $159.1 million, $74.5 million and
$9.5 million during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Activity during 2012
included proceeds from the issuance of $169.7 million of common stock in our
initial public offering, net of issuance costs, which was offset by
$16.7 million of payments on our term loan and revolving line of credit. Net
cash used in financing activities during these periods also included repayments
of certain borrowings pursuant to our capital leases, as well as proceeds of
$7.7 million from the exercise of stock options.
In March 2011, we issued an aggregate of 1,948,052 shares of our Series G
preferred stock for total proceeds of $30.0 million. In November 2011, we issued
2,000,000 shares of Series D preferred stock for total proceeds of $40.0
million. Such shares were sold to existing holders of Series G and D preferred
stock and their affiliates. Net cash provided by financing activities during
2011 also included $9.8 million borrowed under our revolving line of credit,
partially offset by $3.3 million in payments on our term loan.
Net cash provided by financing activities during 2010 included $9.9 million
borrowed under our term loan.
Capital Resources
Since 2009, we have increased our expenditures faster than the growth in our
revenue. Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those now
planned and will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:
• the development of new cross-channel, digital marketing SaaS solutions;
• market acceptance of our solutions;
• the levels of marketing programs required to maintain and improve our
competitive position in the marketplace;
49--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
• future acquisitions or investments in complementary businesses, products
or technologies;
• the expansion of our sales, support and marketing organizations;
• the establishment of additional offices in the United States and
internationally;
• the building of infrastructure necessary to support our growth;
• the response of competitors to our solutions; and
• our relationships with suppliers and clients.
Based on our current cash and accounts receivable balances, we believe that we
will have sufficient liquidity to fund our business and meet our contractual
obligations for the next twelve months. However, we may need or choose to raise
additional funds in the future if we consummate acquisitions or investments in
complementary businesses, products or technologies, which could deplete the
amount of cash on our balance sheet. If we raise additional funds through the
issuance of equity or convertible securities, our stockholders may experience
ownership dilution.
During the last three years, inflation and changing prices have not had a
material effect on our business, and we do not expect that inflation or changing
prices will materially affect our business in the next twelve months.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
During fiscal years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 we did not have any
relationships with unconsolidated organizations or financial partnerships, such
as structured finance or special purpose entities that would have been
established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or
other contractually narrow or limited purposes that are likely to have a
material effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition,
revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources or
expenditures.

(1) Contractual commitments primarily consist of hosting and
hosting-related costs for the data center facilities that house our
infrastructure and a software licensing agreement for certain software
product licenses.
In the normal course of business, we indemnify third parties with whom we enter
into contractual relationships, including clients, lessors, and parties to other
transactions, with respect to certain matters. We have agreed, under certain
conditions, to hold these third parties harmless against specified losses, such
as those arising from a breach of representations or covenants, other
third-party claims that our suite of cross-channel, digital marketing SaaS
solutions, when used for their intended purposes, infringe upon the intellectual
property rights of such other third parties or other claims made against certain
parties. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount of
liability under these indemnification obligations due to our limited history of
prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances that are
likely to be involved in each particular claim. In the past we have not been
required to make payments under these obligations.
