CITRIX SYSTEMS, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) JUNE 30, 1999 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. All adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods shown are of a normal recurring nature and have been reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or for any future period. The information included in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in this report and the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Citrix Systems, Inc. (the "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998. 2. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. While the Company believes that such estimates are fair when considered in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations taken as a whole, the actual amount of such estimates, when known, will vary from these estimates. 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue is recognized when earned. The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position ("SOP") 97-2 (as amended by SOP 98-4 and SOP 98-9), "Software Revenue Recognition". Product revenues are recognized upon shipment of the software product only if no significant Company obligations remain, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection of the resulting receivable is deemed probable. In the case of non-cancelable product licensing arrangements under which certain Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEMs") have software reproduction rights, initial recognition of revenue also requires delivery and customer acceptance of the product master or first copy. Subsequent recognition of revenues is based upon reported royalties from the OEMs as well as estimates of royalties due through the Company's reporting date. Revenue from packaged product sales to distributors and resellers is recorded when related products are shipped. In software arrangements that include rights to multiple software products, post-contract customer support, and/or other services, the Company allocates the total arrangement fee among each deliverable based on the relative fair value of each of the deliverables determined based on vendor-specific objective evidence. Product returns and sales allowances, including stock rotations, are estimated and provided for at the time of sale. Revenues from training and consulting are recognized when the services are performed. Service and subscription revenues from customer maintenance fees for ongoing customer support and product updates and upgrades are based on the price charged or derived value of the undelivered 7

elements and are recognized ratably over the term of the contract, which is typically twelve months. Service revenues, which are immaterial when compared to net revenues, are included in net revenues on the face of the statement of operations. 4. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options. Convertible shares related to the convertible subordinated debentures were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because of their antidilutive effect. All share and per share data has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the two-for-one stock split in the form of a stock dividend paid on March 25, 1999 to stockholders of record as of March 17, 1999. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share: [Enlarge/Download Table] THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, JUNE 30, -------------------------------------------------------------------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 -------------------------------------------------------------------- (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE INFORMATION) Numerator: Net income $27,785 $ 9,620 $53,553 $21,898 ======= ======= ======= ======= Denominator: Denominator for basic earnings per share -weighted-average shares 87,541 83,741 87,019 83,497 Effect of dilutive securities: Employee stock options 6,949 7,096 7,070 6,717 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Dilutive potential common shares 6,949 7,096 7,070 6,717 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Denominator for diluted earnings per share -weighted-average shares 94,490 90,837 94,089 90,214 ======= ======= ======= ======= Basic earnings per share $ 0.32 $ 0.11 $ 0.62 $ 0.26 ======= ======= ======= ======= Diluted earnings per share $ 0.29 $ 0.11 $ 0.57 $ 0.24 ======= ======= ======= ======= 8

5. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components and requires the classification of changes in the balances of items that are reported directly in a separate component of stockholders' equity on the consolidated balance sheets. The components of comprehensive income, net of related tax, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 are as follows: [Enlarge/Download Table] THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS JUNE 30, ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 1998 1999 1998 ---------------------------------------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Net income $27,785 $9,620 $53,553 $21,898 Unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities, net (1,497) - (1,497) - ------- ------ ------- ------- Comprehensive income $26,288 $9,620 $52,056 $21,898 ======= ====== ======= ======= 6. CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES In March 1999, the Company sold $850.0 million principal amount at maturity of its zero coupon convertible subordinated debentures (the "debentures") due March 22, 2019 in a private placement. The debentures were priced with a yield to maturity of 5.25% and resulted in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $292.5 million (net of original issue discount and debt issuance costs). Except under limited circumstances, no interest will be paid on the debentures prior to maturity. The debentures are convertible at the option of the security holder at any time on or before the maturity date at a conversion rate of 7.0306 shares of the Company's common stock for each $1,000 principal amount at maturity of debentures, subject to adjustment in certain events. The Company may redeem the debentures on or after March 22, 2004. Holders may require the Company to repurchase the debentures, at set redemption prices (equal to the issue price plus accrued original issue discount) beginning on March 22, 2004. 7. STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM On April 15, 1999, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $200 million of the Company's common stock. Purchases will be made from time to time in the open market and paid out of general corporate funds. As of June 30, 1999, none of the Company's outstanding common stock has been repurchased under this program. 8. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain reclassifications have been made for consistent presentation. 9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On July 27, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition of certain in-process software technologies and assets of ViewSoft, Inc., a firm specializing in software for multi-tier and Web-based application development and deployment, for approximately $33.6 million. A portion of the purchase price is expected to be allocated to in-process research and 9

development for which the Company expects to incur a one-time charge to its operations, amounting to approximately $2.3 million in the quarter ending September 30, 1999. 10

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW The Company develops, markets, sells and supports innovative client and server-based computing software that enables effective and efficient deployment of enterprise applications that are designed for Microsoft Windows(R) operating systems. The Company's MetaFrame(TM) and WinFrame(R) product lines permit organizations to deploy Windows applications without regard to location, network connection, or type of client hardware platforms. The Company began shipping its WinFrame product in the third quarter of 1995 and its MetaFrame product in the second quarter of 1998. On May 9, 1997, the Company and Microsoft entered into a License, Development and Marketing Agreement, as amended (the "Development Agreement"), which provides for the licensing to Microsoft of certain of the Company's multi-user software enhancements to Microsoft's Windows NT Server and for the cooperation between the parties for the development of certain future multi-user versions of Microsoft Windows NT Server, Terminal Server Edition ("NT Terminal Server"). Under the terms of the Development Agreement, as amended, the Company is entitled to receive $100 million in quarterly payments, $70 million of which has already been received. As a result of the Development Agreement, the Company will continue to support the Microsoft Windows NT platform, but the MetaFrame products and later releases will no longer directly incorporate Windows NT technology. The Company plans to continue developing enhancements to its MetaFrame product line and expects that this product and associated options and royalties derived under the terms of the Development Agreement will constitute a majority of its revenues for the foreseeable future. The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position ("SOP") 97-2 (as amended by SOP 98-4 and SOP 98-9), "Software Revenue Recognition" as described in Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report. On April 15, 1999, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $200 million of the Company's common stock. Purchases will be made from time to time in the open market and paid out of general corporate funds. As of June 30, 1999, none of the Company's outstanding common stock has been repurchased under this program. On July 27, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition of certain in-process software technologies and assets of ViewSoft, Inc., a firm specializing in software for multi-tier and Web-based application development and deployment, for approximately $33.6 million. The Company will leverage this technology to build its leadership in the rapidly growing market for deploying and managing Web-based applications. A portion of the purchase price is expected to be allocated to in-process research and development for which the Company expects to incur a one-time charge to its operations, amounting to approximately $2.3 million in the quarter ending September 30, 1999. The discussion below relating to the individual financial statement captions, the Company's overall financial performance, operations and financial position should be read in conjunction with the factors and events described in "Overview" and "Certain Factors Which May Affect Future Results" which, it is anticipated, will impact the Company's future performance and financial position. 11

Net Revenues. The increase in net revenues in the second quarter of 1999 compared to the second quarter of 1998 and the respective six month periods then ended were primarily attributable to increases in the volume of shipments of the Company's Windows Application Servers, consisting of MetaFrame and WinFrame products, subscriptions and additional user licenses, and, to a lesser extent, increases in the volume of shipments of Management Services Products, consisting of system option products such as Load Balancing Services, Resource Management Services and other options, which are applicable to both the MetaFrame and WinFrame product lines. Within the Windows Application Servers product group, demand for the Company's MetaFrame product, which began shipping in June 1998, resulted in increased sales of the MetaFrame product line and additional user licenses while sales of the WinFrame product line and additional user licenses decreased. The increase in the Management Services Products group was primarily due to an increase in sales of the Load Balancing Services product as end users continue to implement larger scale MetaFrame solutions. The volume of licensing of Computing Appliances Products to original equipment manufacturers ("OEM") decreased for the stated periods. An analysis of the Company's net revenue is detailed in the table below. Net revenue is segregated into five categories: Windows Application Servers, Computing Appliances Products, Management Services Products, Microsoft royalties and other revenue. Windows Application Servers revenue represents fees related to the licensing of the Company's MetaFrame and WinFrame products, subscriptions and additional user licenses. Computing Appliances Products revenue consists of license fees and royalties from OEMs who are granted a license to incorporate and/or market the Company's multi-user technologies in their own product offerings. Management Services Products consist of system option products such as Load Balancing Services, Resource Management Services and other options, which are applicable to both the MetaFrame and WinFrame product lines. Microsoft royalties represent fees recognized in connection with the Development Agreement. 12

JUNE 30, 1998 VS. 1999 1998 1999 1998 JUNE 30, 1998 JUNE 30, 1998 ---- ---- ---- ---- ------------- ------------- Windows Application Servers.................. 73% 69% 75% 69% 77% 84% Computing Appliances Products................ 2 10 2 12 (58) (67) Management Services Products................. 10 3 8 4 410 289 Microsoft royalties.......................... 11 14 11 11 25 69 Other revenue................................ 4 4 4 4 83 61 ---- ---- ---- ---- Net revenues................................. 100% 100% 100% 100% 68% 70% International. International revenues (sales outside of the United States) accounted for approximately 39% and 27% of net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. International revenues accounted for approximately 39% and 27% of net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consist primarily of the cost of royalties, product media and duplication, manuals, packaging materials and shipping expense. Cost of OEM revenues included in cost of revenues primarily consists of cost of royalties, except where the OEM elects to purchase shrink wrapped products in which case such costs are as described in the previous sentence. All development costs incurred in connection with the Development Agreement are expensed as incurred as a separate component of cost of revenues. Gross Margin. Gross margin increased from 91.7% in the second quarter of 1998 to 96.7% in the second quarter of 1999, and from 91.0% in the first half of 1998 to 95.8% in the first half of 1999 due to increases in sales of the MetaFrame product and related user licenses. The MetaFrame product line has a relatively high gross margin contribution compared to the WinFrame product line as the MetaFrame product line bears no royalties. Additionally, the increase in gross margin contribution is partly due to an adjustment to royalties payable associated with higher than expected additional user licenses deployed with MetaFrame products. The increase in gross margin as a percentage of revenue related to the Development Agreement also increased due to an increase in revenue related to the Development Agreement and a decrease in related development costs. The overall increase in gross margin as a percentage of net revenues was partially offset by an increase in inventory reserves. Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses consisted primarily of personnel-related costs. To date, all internal software development costs have been expensed as incurred. The increase in research and development expenses resulted primarily from additional staffing, associated salaries and related expenses required to expand and enhance the Company's product lines. All development costs included in the research and development of software products and enhancements to existing products have been expensed as incurred except for certain intangible assets related to the acquisitions described herein. Sales, Marketing and Support Expenses. The increase in sales, marketing and support expenses resulted primarily from increased efforts in promotional and advertising activities related to specific product lines and corporate branding as well as marketing programs directed at customer and business partner acquisition and retention. Promotional activities include co-op advertising programs and other promotional activities such as those directed at resellers, training programs, trade shows and other direct mail programs. Sales, marketing and support staff and associated salaries, commissions and related expenses also increased due to efforts to increase the Company's international sales force and marketing programs. General and Administrative Expenses. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to increased expenses associated with additional staff, associated salaries and related expenses and consulting fees necessary to support 13

overall increases in the scope of the Company's operations including additional expenditures for information systems. Amortization of Intangible Assets. The increase in amortization of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets is primarily due to the APM Ltd. and VDOnet Corporation Ltd. acquisitions. The Company acquired APM Ltd. for approximately $40.4 million in June 1998 and acquired VDOnet Corporation Ltd. for approximately $8.0 million in July 1998. The Company expects to incur additional amortization expense due to the acquisition of ViewSoft, Inc. as discussed in Note 9 to the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In-Process Research and Development Expenses. During 1998, the Company completed certain acquisitions. Since the respective dates of acquisition, the Company has used the acquired in-process technology to develop new product offerings, which have or will become part of the Company's suite of products when completed. Functionality included in products using the acquired in-process technology have been introduced at various times following the respective transaction dates of the acquired assets. The Company currently expects to complete the development of the remaining projects at various dates between 1999 and 2000. Upon completion, the Company will offer the related products to its customers. The nature of the efforts required to develop and integrate the acquired in- process technology into commercially viable products or features and functionalities within the Citrix suite of existing products principally relate to the completion of all planning, designing and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the products can be produced to meet design requirements, including functions, features and technical performance requirements. The Company currently expects that products utilizing the acquired in-process technology will be successfully developed, but there can be no assurance that commercial viability of any of these products will be achieved. Furthermore, future developments in the software industry, particularly the server-based computing environment, changes in technology, changes in other products and offerings or other developments may cause the Company to alter or abandon product plans. Failure to complete the development of these projects in their entirety, or in a timely manner, could have a material, adverse impact on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. A description of the in-process research and development and the estimates made by the Company for Insignia, APM and VDOnet is summarized below. All of the acquired projects are targeted for the server-based computing market. After the acquisition of each technology, the Company has continued the development of these in-process projects. INSIGNIA On February 5, 1998, the Company completed its acquisition of certain in- process software technologies and assets of Insignia Solutions, plc ("Insignia"). The in-process research and development acquired in the Insignia acquisition consisted primarily of one significant research and development project, Keoke, a video display protocol designed to add performance and bandwidth management enhancements to ICA(R) in MetaFrame and WinFrame software. As of June 30, 1999, the Company has completed this project and has incurred expenses totaling approximately $1.2 million since the date of acquisition. APM On June 30, 1998, the Company completed its acquisition of APM Ltd ("APM"). The in-process research and development acquired in the APM acquisition consisted primarily of one significant research and development project. The 14
10-Q15th Page of 29TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 15th
project is an application server for Java, which is similar to WinFrame software, but runs Java applications. As of June 30, 1999, expenses totaling approximately $3.1 million had been incurred since the date of acquisition. The Company estimates approximately $1.9 million will be required to complete the remaining research and development project and it is expected to be completed in 2000. The remaining effort to complete the project is primarily the utilization of acquired technology to develop an application server for Java that would operate in a MetaFrame and WinFrame server environment. The research and development risks associated with this project relate primarily to updating the acquired technology to be compatible with Sun Microsystems' Java 2.0 application environment, integrating and porting such technology into a variety of server- based computing architectures. VDONET In July 1998, the Company completed its acquisition of VDOnet Corporation, Ltd ("VDOnet"). The in-process research and development acquired in the VDOnet acquisition consisted primarily of one significant research and development project, ICA Video Services. This project allows video applications and applications containing video to be viewed on an ICA client. As of June 30, 1999, expenses totaling approximately $2.7 million had been incurred since the date of acquisition. The Company estimates approximately $1.7 million will be required to complete the remaining research and development project and it is expected to be completed in 2000. The remaining effort to complete the project is primarily the utilization of acquired technology to develop a video server that will provide video applications to an ICA client. The research and development risks associated with this project relate primarily to integrating this product into a server-based computing environment. The actual cost to complete the in-process and core technology acquired from Insignia has not varied materially from the estimated cost at the time of the valuation for Insignia. The estimated costs to complete the APM and VDOnet projects as of June 30, 1999 have increased from the estimated cost of $4.0 million and $200,000, respectively, at the time of the valuation, due to an increase in each of such project's scope. The completion dates of the in-process and core technology acquired are in line with expectations for the Insignia acquisition. The completion dates of the in-process and core technology acquired for the APM and VDOnet acquisitions are expected to be delayed by approximately nine months from the originally anticipated completion dates due to changes in the development of these technologies resulting from end user feedback. The Company is currently unable to determine the impact of such delays on its business, future results of operations and financial condition. There can be no assurance that the Company will not incur additional charges in subsequent periods to reflect costs associated with these transactions or that the Company will be successful in its efforts to integrate and further develop these technologies. Interest Income. Interest income increased during the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to the respective period in the prior year primarily due to interest income earned on cash generated from operations and additional cash obtained from the issuance of the zero coupon convertible subordinated debentures in March 1999. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased during the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to the respective period in the prior year primarily due to the issuance of the zero coupon convertible subordinated debentures in March 1999. Income Taxes. The Company's effective tax rate amounted to 36% for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company generated positive operating cash flows of approximately $71.6 15

million. Cash provided by operating activities relate primarily to net income of $53.6 million as adjusted for depreciation and amortization of $11.1 million, and tax benefits related to the exercise of non-statutory stock options and disqualified dispositions of incentive stock options of $9.5 million. Accounts payable and other accrued expenses increased $14.9 million due to higher expenses from increases in marketing activities and additional royalty fees. The increases in cash provided by operating activities were partially offset by a $17.3 million increase in deferred tax assets due to tax benefits from the exercise of non-statutory stock options and disqualified dispositions of incentive stock options and a $14.3 million increase in accounts receivable primarily due to higher revenue levels. Income tax payable increased $10.2 million due to greater profitability generated from higher revenue levels. Cash used in investing activities of $276.3 million related primarily to the use of the proceeds from the issuance of convertible subordinated debentures in March 1999 and also cash from operations used to purchase longer maturity investments. This cash outflow was partially offset by cash inflows from the sale of investments of approximately $83.1 million. Cash provided by financing activities of $312.0 million related primarily to $292.5 million of net proceeds from the issuance of convertible subordinated debentures and $19.6 million from the issuance of common stock under the Company's stock option plan. As of June 30, 1999, the Company had approximately $657.1 million in cash and investments and $289.1 million of working capital. The net proceeds from the issuance of convertible subordinated debentures have been invested in cash equivalents and investments. The Company intends to use the net proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are invested in investment grade, highly liquid securities to minimize interest rate risk and allow for flexibility in the event of immediate cash needs. At June 30, 1999, the Company had approximately $44.0 million in accounts receivable, net of allowances, and $103.5 million of deferred revenues, of which the Company anticipates $59.5 million will be earned over the next twelve months. The Company also expects to receive an additional $30.0 million under the terms of the Development Agreement over the next twelve months. On April 15, 1999, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $200 million of the Company's common stock. Purchases will be made from time to time in the open market and paid out of general corporate funds. As of June 30, 1999, none of the Company's outstanding common stock has been repurchased under this program. On July 27, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition of certain in-process software technologies and assets of ViewSoft, Inc., a firm specializing in software for multi-tier and Web-based application development and deployment, for approximately $33.6 million. A portion of the purchase price is expected to be allocated to in-process research and development for which the Company expects to incur a one-time charge to its operations, amounting to approximately $2.3 million in the quarter ending September 30, 1999. The Company believes existing cash and investments together with cash flow from operations, if any, will be sufficient to meet operating and capital expenditures requirements for at least the next twelve months. The Company may also from time to time seek to raise additional funds through public or private financings. YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE Until recently, many computer programs were written using two digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year in the twentieth century. Such software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. The consequences of this issue may include systems failures and business process interruption to the extent companies fail to upgrade, replace or otherwise address year 2000 problems. The year 2000 problem may also result in additional business and competitive differentiation. Aside from the well-known calculation problems with the use of 2-digit date formats as the year changes from 1999 to 2000, the year 2000 is a special case leap year. As a result, significant uncertainty exists in the software 16
10-Q17th Page of 29TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 17th
industry concerning the potential impact of the year 2000 problem. The Company believes that it has four general areas of potential exposure with respect to the year 2000 problem: (i) its own software products; (ii) its internal information systems; (iii) computer hardware and other equipment related systems; and (iv) the effects of third party compliance efforts. The Company's existing principal software product lines consist of WinFrame and MetaFrame software. The Company's WinFrame product line is an authorized extension to Microsoft Windows NT, 3.51. The Company's MetaFrame product line adds additional functionality to NT Terminal Server. Customers can obtain current information about the year 2000 compliance of the Company's products from the Company's web site. Information on the Company's web site is provided to customers for the sole purpose of assisting in planning for the transition to the year 2000. Such information is the most currently available concerning the behavior of the Company's products in the next century and is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. While the Company believes that the current versions of its WinFrame and MetaFrame products are capable of storing four-digit year data, allowing applications to differentiate between dates from the 1900s and the year 2000 and beyond, the potential incompatibility with two-digit application programs may limit the Company's sales of product in those situations. Further, notwithstanding the operating system's ability to store four-digit year data, it is typically the application's function to collect and properly store date data. There can be no assurance that the Company's products will not be integrated by the Company or its customers with, or otherwise interact with, non-year 2000 compliant software or other products which may malfunction and expose the Company to claims from its customers or other third parties. The foregoing could result in the loss of or delay in market acceptance of the Company's products and services, increased service costs to the Company or payment by the Company of compensatory or other damages. Although the Company believes that many Windows applications do store four-digit year dates today, it is possible that some applications are now or have historically only collected two-digit year data, and in such cases the Company's products cannot create four-digit year data for applications which have collected only two digits in year fields. Further, there can be no assurance that the Company's software products that are designed to be year 2000 compliant contain all necessary technology to make them year 2000 compliant. If any of the Company's licensees experience year 2000 problems, such licensees could assert claims for damages against the Company. With respect to internal information systems, the Company has commenced, but has not yet completed, a testing and compliance program to identify any year 2000 problems. An audit has been conducted to identify all business critical applications and responses sought from vendors as to whether the application is compliant or not and what plans they have in place to ensure compliance before December 31, 1999. The Company expects to complete this portion of its compliance plan by the end of the third quarter of 1999. The third type of potential year 2000 exposure relates to the Company's computer hardware and other equipment related-systems, such as the Company's workstations, phone systems, security systems and elevator systems. The Company has completed its identification and evaluation of such systems' year 2000 exposure. The Company has not discovered any significant potential year 2000 exposure regarding its computer hardware and other equipment related systems. The fourth aspect of the Company's year 2000 analysis involves evaluating the year 2000 efforts of third parties, including critical suppliers and other partners with whom the Company has strategic relationships. The Company has contacted critical suppliers and other parties through written and/or telephone inquiries. Substantially all suppliers and other parties that have responded to the Company's inquires have indicated they are compliant or will be compliant before December 31, 1999. The Company will continue to follow up with suppliers and other parties that have not yet responded or have indicated a current status of noncompliance. If the Company determines that the year 2000 exposure of any critical suppliers or other strategic relationships could result in material disruptions to their respective businesses, the Company may develop appropriate contingency plans. Further, if certain critical third party providers, such as those supplying outsourced manufacturing, 17
10-Q18th Page of 29TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 18th
electricity, water, or telecommunications services, experience difficulties resulting in a material interruption of services to the Company, such interruption would likely result in a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. To date, the Company has not incurred any material expenditure in connection with identifying or evaluating year 2000 compliance issues. The Company estimates it will not incur any material levels of expenditure on this issue during 1999 to support its compliance initiatives. The Company believes that it is unlikely to experience a material adverse impact on its financial condition or results of operations due to the Company's internal year 2000 compliance issues. However, since the assessment process is ongoing, year 2000 complications are not fully known, and potential liability issues are not clear, the full potential impact of the year 2000 on the Company is not known at this time. As the Company has recently replaced its fundamental financial and accounting software, no significant problems are anticipated which would result in either the delay or the inability to process accounting and financial data. If the audit of the other software applications used by Company lead to the discovery of further year 2000 compliance issues, the Company intends to evaluate the need for one or more contingency plans relating to such issues. The Company's expectations as to the extent and timeliness of modifications required in order to achieve year 2000 compliance is a forward-looking statement subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may vary materially as a result of a number of factors, including, among others, those described in this paragraph. There can be no assurance however, that the Company will be able to successfully modify on a timely basis such products, services and systems to comply with year 2000 requirements, which failure could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results. Further, while the Company believes that its year 2000 compliance efforts will be completed on a timely basis, and in advance of the year 2000 date transition, there can be no assurance that unexpected delays or problems, including the failure to ensure year 2000 compliance by systems or products supplied to the Company by a third party, will not have an adverse effect on the Company, its financial performance, or the competitiveness or customer acceptance of its products. Further, the Company's current understanding of expected costs is subject to change as its year 2000 compliance project progresses and does not include potential costs related to actual customer claims, or the cost of internal software and hardware replaced in the normal course of business unless such installation has been accelerated to provide solutions to year 2000 compliance issues. CERTAIN FACTORS WHICH MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS We do not provide financial performance forecasts. Our operating results and financial condition have varied in the past and may in the future vary significantly depending on a number of factors. Except for the historical information in this report, the matters contained in this report include forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements made in this report. Such factors, among others, may have a material adverse effect upon our business, results of operations and financial condition. OUR SUCCESS IS SUBSTANTIALLY DEPENDENT UPON OUR STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIP WITH MICROSOFT Microsoft is the leading provider of desktop operating systems. We depend upon our strategic alliance agreement with Microsoft pursuant to which Citrix and Microsoft have agreed to cooperate to develop advanced operating systems and promote Windows application program interfaces. We also depend upon the license of key technology from Microsoft, including certain source and object code licenses, and technical support. Our relationship with Microsoft is subject to the following risks and uncertainties: 18
10-Q19th Page of 29TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 19th
. Competition with Microsoft. NT Terminal Server is, and future product offerings by Microsoft may be, competitive with our current WinFrame and MetaFrame products, and any future product offerings by Citrix. . Termination of Microsoft's Endorsement of the ICA Protocol. Microsoft has agreed to endorse only our ICA(R) protocol as the preferred method to provide multi-user Windows access for devices other than Windows clients until at least November 1999. Subsequent to November 1999, or before November 1999 if certain events occur as provided in our development agreement with Microsoft, it is possible that Microsoft will market or endorse other methods to provide non-Windows client devices multi-user Windows access. . Dependence on Microsoft for Commercialization. Our ability to successfully commercialize our MetaFrame product depends on Microsoft's ability to market NT Terminal Server products. We do not have control over Microsoft's distributors and resellers and, to our knowledge, Microsoft's distributors and resellers are not obligated to purchase products from Microsoft. . Product Release Delays. There may be delays in the release and shipment of future versions of NT Terminal Server. If our relationship with Microsoft were terminated or adversely affected for any reason, our business, operating results and financial condition would be materially adversely affected. OUR CONTINUED GROWTH DEPENDS UPON BROAD-BASED ACCEPTANCE OF OUR ICA PROTOCOL We believe that our success in the markets in which we compete will depend upon our ability to make the ICA protocol a widely accepted standard for supporting Windows applications. Microsoft includes as a component of NT Terminal Server its Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) which has certain of the capabilities of our ICA protocol, and may offer customers a competitive solution. We believe that our success is dependent on our ability to enhance and differentiate our ICA protocol, and foster broad acceptance of the ICA protocol based on its performance, scalability, reliability and enhanced features. In addition, our ability to win broad market acceptance of our ICA protocol will depend upon the degree of success achieved by our strategic partners in marketing their respective product offerings, product pricing and customers' assessment of our technical, managerial, service and support expertise. If another standard emerges or if we otherwise fail to achieve wide acceptance of the ICA protocol as a standard for supporting Windows applications, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. THE SUCCESS OF OUR BUSINESS ALSO DEPENDS UPON OUR STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS WITH PARTIES OTHER THAN MICROSOFT In addition to our relationship with Microsoft, we have strategic relationships with IBM, Compaq, Wyse and others. We depend upon our strategic partners to successfully market and promote the use of the Company's products and incorporate our technology into their products and to market and sell such products. If we are unable to maintain our current strategic relationships or develop additional strategic relationships, or if any of our key strategic partners are unsuccessful in incorporating our technology into their products or marketing or selling such products, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. WE FACE SIGNIFICANT COMPETITION FROM OTHER TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES The markets in which we compete are intensely competitive. Most of our competitors and potential competitors, including Microsoft, have significantly greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources. The announcement of the release 19
10-Q20th Page of 29TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 20th
and the actual release of products competitive with our existing and future product lines, such as NT Terminal Server and related enhancements by Microsoft or third parties, could cause our existing and potential customers to postpone or cancel plans to license our product lines. This would adversely impact our business, operating results and financial condition. Further, our ability to market MetaFrame and other future product offerings may be affected by Microsoft's licensing and pricing scheme for client devices implementing our product offerings which attach to NT Terminal Server. In addition, alternative products exist for Internet commerce that directly or indirectly compete with our products. Existing or new products that extend web site software to provide database access or interactive computing could materially impact our ability to sell our products in this market. As markets for our products continue to develop, additional companies, including companies with significant market presence in the computer hardware, software and networking industries, may enter the markets in which we compete and further intensify competition. Finally, although we believe that price has historically been a less significant competitive factor than product performance, reliability and functionality, we believe that price competition may become more significant in the future. We may not be able to maintain our historic prices, and any inability to do so could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. As a result of these and other factors, we may not be able to compete effectively with current or future competitors, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. OUR RELIANCE ON A FEW PRODUCTS FOR A MAJORITY OF OUR REVENUE COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS We anticipate that our Windows Application Servers, which consists of our MetaFrame and WinFrame products, subscriptions and additional user licenses, will constitute the majority of our revenue for the foreseeable future. We further expect the MetaFrame product line will constitute the majority of our revenue within this product group for the foreseeable future. The MetaFrame product, when combined with NT Terminal Server, provides capabilities similar to those offered in the WinFrame technology line. Therefore, our ability to generate revenue from our MetaFrame product will depend upon market acceptance of NT Terminal Server products. We expect that revenue from MetaFrame-based products will constitute an increasing percentage of total revenue and that revenue from WinFrame-based products will decrease over time as a percentage of total revenue. We may experience declines in demand for our products as a result of new competitive product releases, price competition, lack of success of our strategic partners, technological change or other factors. In addition, the introduction of products based on MetaFrame technology may create competition with our WinFrame product line and may delay or replace orders of either product line. If we are unable to successfully sell our MetaFrame and WinFrame product lines, our business, operating results and financial condition would be materially adversely affected. FAILURE TO PROPERLY MANAGE OUR GROWTH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS We have recently experienced rapid growth in the scope of our operations, the number of our employees and the geographic area of our operations. In addition, we have completed certain international acquisitions since October 1997. Such growth and assimilation of operations and personnel of such acquired companies has placed and may continue to place a significant strain on our managerial, operational and financial resources. To manage our growth effectively, we must continue to implement and improve additional management and financial systems and controls. Our systems, procedures or controls may not be adequate to support our current or future operations. In addition, we may not be able to effectively manage this expansion and still achieve the rapid execution necessary to fully exploit the market opportunity for our products and services in a timely and cost-effective manner. Our future operating results will also depend on our ability to manage our expanding product line, expand our sales and marketing organizations and expand our support organization commensurate with the increasing base of our installed product. Our failure to properly manage our growth could adversely affect our business, 20
10-Q21st Page of 29TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 21st
operating results and financial condition. We plan to increase our professional staff during 1999 as we implement sales, marketing and support and product development efforts, as well as associated administrative systems, to support planned growth. As a result of this planned growth in the size of our staff, we believe that we will also require additional facilities during 1999. Although we believe that the cost of such additional facilities will not significantly impact our financial position or results of operations, we anticipate that operating expenses will increase during 1999 as a result of our planned growth in staff. Such an increase in operating expenses may reduce our income from operations and cash flows from operating activities in 1999. LOSS OF KEY PERSONNEL COULD MATERIALLY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS Our future success depends, in large part, upon the services of a number of key employees. Any officer or employee can terminate his relationship at any time. The effective management of our anticipated growth will depend, in large part, upon our ability to retain our highly skilled technical, managerial and marketing personnel, and attract and maintain replacements for and additions to such personnel in the future. Competition for such personnel is intense and may affect our ability to successfully attract, assimilate or retain sufficiently qualified personnel. The loss of one or more of our key personnel could have a material adverse affect on our business, operating results and financial condition. OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS UPON OUR ABILITY TO PROTECT OUR PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY We rely primarily on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions, to protect our proprietary rights. Our efforts to protect our proprietary technology rights may not be successful. The loss of any material trade secret, trademark, trade name or copyright could have a material adverse effect on us. Despite our precautions, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy certain portions of our products or to obtain and use information regarded as proprietary. Substantially all of our sales are derived from the licensing of our products under "shrink wrap" license agreements that are not signed by licensees and, therefore, may be unenforceable under the laws of certain jurisdictions. In addition, our ability to protect our proprietary rights may be affected by the following: . Differences in International Law. The laws of some foreign countries do not protect our intellectual property to the same extent as do the laws of the United States and Canada. . Third Party Infringement Claims. Third parties may assert infringement claims against us in the future. This may result in costly litigation or require us to obtain a license to intellectual property rights of such third parties. Such licenses may not be available on reasonable terms or at all. As a result of these and other factors, we may not be able to compete effectively with current or future competitors, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. IF WE FAIL TO INTRODUCE NEW PRODUCTS AND ENHANCE OUR EXISTING PRODUCTS TO KEEP UP WITH RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE, DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS MAY DECLINE The markets for our products are relatively new and are characterized by: . rapid technological change; . evolving industry standards; 21
10-Q22nd Page of 29TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 22nd
. changes in customer requirements; and . frequent new product introductions and enhancements, including enhancements to certain key technology licensed from Microsoft. These market characteristics will require us to continuously enhance our current products and develop and introduce new products to keep pace with technological developments and respond to evolving customer requirements. Additionally, we and others may announce new products, new product enhancements or technologies that could replace or shorten the life cycle of our existing product offerings. We believe we will incur additional costs and royalties associated with the development, licensing or acquisition of new technologies or enhancements to existing products. This will increase our cost of revenues and operating expenses. We cannot currently quantify such increase with respect to transactions that have not occurred. We may use a substantial portion of our cash and investments to fund these additional costs, resulting in a decrease in interest income, unless such decrease is offset by cash flows from future operations. We will need to recruit additional personnel to develop new products, product enhancements and technologies. If we are unable to add staff and resources, future enhancements and additional features to our existing or future products may be delayed, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. IF OUR PRODUCTS CONTAIN ERRORS, THEY MAY BE COSTLY TO CORRECT, REVENUE MAY BE DELAYED, WE COULD GET SUED AND OUR REPUTATION COULD BE HARMED Despite significant testing by us and by current and potential customers, our products may contain errors after commencement of commercial shipments. If errors are discovered, we may not be able to successfully correct them in a timely manner or at all. In addition, we may need to make significant expenditures of capital resources in order to eliminate errors and failures. Errors and failures in our products could result in loss of or delay in market acceptance of our products and could damage our reputation. If one or more of our products fails, a customer may assert warranty and other claims for substantial damages against us. The occurrence or discovery of these types of errors or failures could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR ABILITY TO EXPAND AND MANAGE DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS AND MAJOR DISTRIBUTORS, AS WELL AS ATTRACT LARGE ENTERPRISE CUSTOMERS To increase our sales, we must further expand and manage our indirect distribution channels, including OEMs, distributors, resellers, system integrators and service providers and attract large enterprise customers. We rely significantly on independent distributors and resellers for the marketing and distribution of our products. We do not control our distributors and resellers. Additionally, our distributors and resellers as well as our other indirect distribution channels are not obligated to purchase products from us and may also represent other lines of products. Our inability to expand and manage our relationship with our partners, the inability or unwillingness of our partners to effectively market and sell our products, the loss of existing partnerships, or the inability to attract large enterprise customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. We intend to leverage our relationships with hardware and software vendors and systems integrators to encourage them to recommend or distribute our products. In addition, an integral part of our strategy is to expand our direct sales force and add third-party distributors both domestically and internationally. We are currently investing, and intend to continue to invest, significant resources to develop these channels, which will increase our operating expenses. Additionally, large enterprise customers usually request special pricing and generally have longer sales cycles which may 22

negatively impact our revenues. Further, as we attempt to attract customers from different market segments, and in particular large enterprise customers, we may need to increase corporate branding activities which will increase our operating expenses. OUR BUSINESS MAY BE AFFECTED BY UNEXPECTED YEAR 2000 PROBLEMS Until recently, many computer programs were written using two digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year in the twentieth century. Such software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. The consequences of this issue may include systems failures and business process interruption to the extent companies fail to upgrade, replace or otherwise address year 2000 problems. The year 2000 problem may also result in additional business and competitive differentiation. Aside from the well-known calculation problems with the use of 2-digit date formats as the year changes from 1999 to 2000, the year 2000 is a special case leap year and in many organizations using older technology, dates were used for special programmatic functions. As a result, significant uncertainty exists in the software industry concerning the potential impact of the year 2000 problem. We believe we have four general areas of potential exposure with respect to the year 2000 problem: . our own software products; . our internal information systems; . our computer hardware and other equipment related systems; and . the effects of compliance efforts by third parties, including our partners, suppliers and vendors. While we believe that the current versions of our WinFrame and MetaFrame products are capable of storing four-digit year data allowing applications to differentiate between dates from the 1900s and the year 2000 and beyond, the potential incompatibility with two-digit application programs may limit our sales of product in those situations. There can be no assurance that our products will not be integrated by us or our customers with, or otherwise interact with, non-year 2000 compliant software or other products which may malfunction and expose us to warranty and other claims from our customers or other third parties. We have not yet completed our assessment of year 2000 compliance issues with respect to all of these areas. Since the year 2000 complications are not fully known, potential year 2000 problems, including changing purchasing patterns of customers impacted by year 2000 issues, could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. IF OUR GROWTH RATE DOES NOT CONTINUE OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION COULD BE AFFECTED Our revenue growth rate in 1999 may not approach the levels attained in 1998, 1997 and 1996. Our growth during those three years was largely attributable to the introduction of MetaFrame in mid-1998 and WinFrame in late 1995. To the extent our revenue growth continues, we believe that our cost of revenues and certain operating expenses will also increase. A significant portion of our expenses, such as employee compensation and rent, are relatively fixed in the short term. Moreover, our expense levels are based, in part, on our expectations regarding future revenue levels. Our income from operations and cash flows from operating and investing activities may decrease as a percentage of revenues in 1999. If we are unable to continue to manage our growth efficiently, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. OUR QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS MAY FLUCTUATE Our quarterly operating results have in the past varied and may in the future vary significantly depending on a number of factors, including: 23
10-Q24th Page of 29TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 24th
. the success of our Windows Application Servers product group and specifically our MetaFrame product line; . the effects of acquisitions or licenses of additional technology; . the size, timing and recognition of revenue from significant orders; . increased competition; . changes in our pricing policies or those of our competitors, including Microsoft; . new product introductions or enhancements by competitors; . delays in the introduction of products or product enhancements by us or our competitors; . customer order deferrals in anticipation of upgrades and new products; . market acceptance of new products and technologies offered by us; . changes in operating expenses, including for the addition of personnel; . foreign currency exchange rates; and . general economic conditions. We continually re-evaluate our programs, including specific license terms and conditions, to market our current and future products and services. We may implement new programs, including offering specified and unspecified enhancements to our current and future product lines. We may recognize revenues associated with such enhancements after the initial shipment or licensing of the software product or over the product's life cycle. We may modify our licensing fees with certain customers to a per usage basis. We may implement a different licensing model, in certain circumstances, which would result in the recognition of licensing fees over a longer period which may result in decreasing revenue. The timing of the implementation of such programs, the timing of the release of such enhancements, the timing of the implementation of a new licensing arrangement and other factors will impact the timing of our recognition of revenues and related expenses associated with our products, related enhancements and services. As a result of these factors, we currently cannot quantify the impact of the re-evaluation of our programs on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We operate with little order backlog because our software products typically are shipped shortly after orders are received. In addition, like many systems level software companies, we recognize a substantial portion of our revenues in the last month of a quarter, with these revenues frequently concentrated in the last weeks or days of the quarter. As a result, product revenues in any quarter are substantially dependent on orders booked and shipped in that quarter, and revenues for any future quarter are not predictable with any degree of certainty. We may also choose to reduce prices or increase spending in response to competition or to pursue new market opportunities. New competitors, technological advances or other factors could result in lower revenues and may require us to incur additional expenses, which, in turn, would materially adversely affect our operating margins in the future. INSUFFICIENT RESERVES FOR PRODUCT RETURNS AND PRICE REDUCTIONS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT US We provide certain of our distributors with product return rights for stock balancing or limited product evaluation. We also provide certain of our distributors with price protection rights. To cover these product returns and price protection rights, we have established reserves based on our evaluation of historical trends and current circumstances. These reserves may not prove to be sufficient in the future, in which case our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. 24

OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR ABILITY TO EXPAND AND MANAGE OUR INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS Our continued growth and profitability will require further expansion of our international operations. To successfully expand international sales, we must establish additional foreign operations, hire additional personnel and recruit additional international resellers. Such international operations are subject to certain risks, such as: . difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations; . fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; . compliance with foreign regulatory and market requirements; . variability of foreign economic and political conditions; . changing restrictions imposed by regulatory requirements, tariffs or other trade barriers or by United States export laws; . costs of localizing products and marketing such products in foreign countries; . longer accounts receivable payment cycles; . potentially adverse tax consequences, including restrictions on repatriation of earnings; . difficulties in protecting intellectual property; and . burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws. ECONOMIC AND MARKET CONDITIONS MAY AFFECT DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS The demand for our products depends in part upon the general demand for computer hardware and software, which fluctuates based on numerous factors, including capital spending levels and general economic conditions. If capital spending levels or general economic conditions are affected, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF OUR COMMON STOCK PRICE The market price for our common stock has been volatile and has fluctuated significantly to date. The trading price of our common stock is likely to continue to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors such as actual or anticipated variations in operating and financial results, anticipated revenue or earnings growth, analyst reports or recommendations and other events or factors, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, the stock market in general, and The Nasdaq National Market and the market for software companies and technology companies in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. These broad market and industry factors may materially and adversely affect the market price of the common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted against such companies. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 25

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The following discussion about the Company's market risk includes "forward- looking statements" that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The Company maintains a non-trading investment portfolio of investment grade, highly liquid, debt securities which limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issue, issuer, or type of instrument. The securities in the Company's investment portfolio are not leveraged and are generally classified as available for sale and therefore are subject to interest rate risk. The Company does not currently hedge interest rate exposure. The modeling technique used measures the change in fair values arising from a hypothetical shift in market interest rates and assumes ending fair values include principal plus accrued interest, dividends and reinvestment income. If market interest rates were to increase by 100 basis points from December 31, 1998 levels, the fair value of the portfolio at December 31, 1998 would decline by approximately $1.1 million. If market interest rates were to increase by 100 basis points from June 30, 1999 levels, the fair value of the portfolio at June 30, 1999 would decline by approximately $3.9 million. 26
