Annual Report 2006

Plain-text annual report

“Over the next decade, delivering applications to people—wherever they work and play—will become a defining issue for IT. Why? Because applications are the language of business. Winners will be fl uent with application delivery. Others will lag behind, struggling with the pace of change in an increasingly dynamic world.” – Mark Templeton, President and CEO, Citrix Systems C i t r i x S y s t e m s , I n c . 2 0 0 6 A n n u a l R e p o r t Citrix Systems, Inc. 851 West Cypress Creek Road Fort Lauderdale, FL 33309 USA www.citrix.com 2006 Annual Report Earnings per Share Operating Cash Flow Corporate Information Revenue ( millions) $1,134 $909 $741 $0.97 $0.93 $0.75 ( millions) $329 $293 $265 ‘04 ‘05 ‘06 ‘04 ‘05 ‘06 ‘04 ‘05 ‘06 Financial Highlights (In thousands, except per share data) 2006 2005 2004 Year Ended December 31, Net revenues Cost of revenues: Cost of license revenues Cost of services revenues Amortization of product related intangible assets Total cost of revenues $ 1,134,319 $ 908,722 $ 741,157 32,911 46,585 19,202 98,698 14,404 26,929 16,766 58,099 3,824 16,705 6,127 26,656 Gross margin 1,035,621 850,623 714,501 Operating expenses: Research and development Sales, marketing and support General and administrative Amortization of other intangible assets In-process research and development 155,331 480,343 178,669 16,934 1,000 108,751 394,153 125,425 11,622 7,000 86,654 337,777 105,799 6,204 19,100 Total operating expenses 832,277 646,951 555,534 Income from operations 203,344 203,672 158,967 Other income (expense), net 39,737 20,682 12,588 Write-off of deferred debt issuance costs – – (7,219) Income before income taxes 243,081 224,354 164,336 Income taxes Net income 60,084 58,745 33,049 $ 182,997 $ 165,609 $ 131,287 Earnings per common share - diluted $ 0.97 $ 0.93 $ 0.75 Weighted average shares outstanding - diluted 187,725 177,771 174,374 Citrix Systems, Inc. is the global leader and the most trusted name in application delivery infrastructure.

Lauderdale, FL 33309 United States Mark Templeton President and CEO Dear Fellow Stockholder: In each of my letters over the past four years, I’ve discussed the strategic transformation of Citrix with you. When I wrote the 2002 letter, we were coming off our most diffi cult year since going public in 1995. At that time, we set bold objectives to double our revenue to $1 billion by 2006, and to lead the software market for delivering applications on demand. To succeed, we needed new competencies in strategic planning, product innovation, acquisition integration and business scalability. We’ve made great progress on each of these dimensions. I’m proud to report 2006 revenue of $1.134 billion. Credit goes to the Citrix employees, business partners and families who are responsible for these excellent results. Thank you for your trust and confi dence. Exceeding $1 billion is a signifi cant milestone achieved by less than two dozen software companies in history. This achieve ment underscores our ability to take a long-term approach, to achieve meaningful objectives, and to invest in technologies that make our customers successful. It’s also a level that even fewer have been able to sustain. Financially, our goal is to deliver reliable revenue growth with increasing operating profit and cash flow. Over the past four years, we’ve averaged over 21% growth in revenue and over 22% in GAAP EPS growth. Operating cash fl ow is up from $265 million in 2004 to $329 million in 2006. Th ese fi nancial results give us the strength to invest for growth. Th ere’s also strength in the growing diversity of our revenue streams—product licensing, license updates, technical services and online services. In 2006, product licensing was up 19%—the largest increase we’ve experienced this decade. License updates grew 23%, driven largely by the success of our Subscription Advantage program. Revenue from technical services was up over 30% compared to 2005. And, our Online Division’s “software-as-a- service” business grew an impressive 50% to almost $150 million. In 2006, we on-boarded over 550 new employees and completed two strategic acquisitions— Refl ectent Soft ware and Orbital Data. Th ese new teams bring us talent, experience and deep expertise in fast-growing application delivery market segments. Citrix Systems, Inc. 2006 Annual Report 1 Acquisitions have accelerated our market leadership, and have helped us further diversify routes to customers. Th ey’ve also expanded our mix of form factors for providing software— as downloadable media, as a subscription service and as an easy-to-install hardware appliance. We’ve taken a pragmatic approach to inte grating these businesses into our ongoing operations, focusing on people, on culture and on building a bigger opportunity for everyone. Smart selection and successful acquisition integration are allowing us to deliver excellent fi nancial results and to dramatically improve our value—to customers, employees and investors. Globalization Flex Working Branch Expansion Mobility E-Commerce Consolidation Security Compliance Continuity Web Services Signifi cant business, technical and evolutionary forces are increasing the distance between where people work and where applications are best hosted. Vision, Technology and Market Alignment We are being rewarded for our long-term approach, for staying aggressive with our strategy, and for making a diff erence with customers. Today, Citrix has the core tech- nologies that make it possible for anyone to work from anywhere. Systematically, we’re enabling customers to break the rigid con- nections between where people work and where applications are best managed. In my 12 years with Citrix, I have not seen a time when our vision, technology and products are better aligned with customer needs, making us more market-relevant and strategic. All signs indicate that our relevance is increasing faster than ever. The pace of change for our customers— along political, business and technological dimensions—is far exceeding expectations and preparation. Today’s dynamic world is infl uenced by several mega-forces. Globaliza- tion is shift ing the optimal location of business processes and workforces in fundamental ways. Geo-political and geo-physical events are dis- rupting the workforce more frequently, costing businesses, governments and individuals mil- lions in lost productivity and revenue. Industries, corporations and datacenters are consolidating at a record pace, creating ever more complex business situations to be serviced by IT organi- zations. Every day, governments are holding 2 businesses more “information accountable” through increased regulation, disclosure and compliance inspection. And a younger work- force—called “Echo Boomers”—is becoming a major driver of new applications and workstyles. Are these opportunities or threats? We believe there are opportunities for those who can seize the business advantages of tapping into off shore talent, having granular control over information security, easily integrating acquisitions, quickly implementing business reorganizations, smoothly handling workforce disruptions and off ering fl exible workstyles. Businesses without these capabilities are threatened and, I believe, will lag behind. Th ey will struggle with the pace of change in an increasingly dynamic world—where the distance between people and applications steadily grows. At Citrix, we’re convinced that the winners will be fl uent with application delivery because applications are the language of business. The last time I had a pizza delivered to my home, I realized how incredibly strategic “delivery” actually is. Imagine the value of Amazon.com without FedEx providing reliable delivery services. Imagine China’s Th ree Gorges Hydroelectric Dam without the electrical grid that delivers the power. Imagine DirecTV without the satellites to deliver high-defi nition programming to our homes. Now, imagine the value of business applications without a system for secure, reliable delivery—anywhere. The fact is, most IT organizations have not taken a holistic, architectural approach to application delivery. Instead, they’ve taken an incremental approach. Th is becomes painfully clear when their businesses are faced with change. Th ere’s widespread agreement that IT systems for delivering applications are too static, too complex, and cost too much to maintain. Customers are stuck between the realities of slow-growing technology budgets and fast-changing business needs. Citrix understands that a strategic, architec- tural approach to application delivery is how IT can become an enabler to business change rather than a road block. Th is is why we believe application delivery will become a defi ning issue for IT over the next decade. Th is is our opportunity. Th is is why we’re investing in a diverse set of products—as end-to-end infrastructure for application delivery—and, this is our complete focus. Multiple Growth Engines Our product portfolio is allowing us to benefi t from high-growth markets for virtualization, application networking and “software as a service” solutions. Th is gives us three growth engines to leverage. Our Application Virtualization products are the industry’s “gold standard” and provide a solid foundation for steady growth. Application Networking, our newest product area, has moved us quickly to the forefront of solutions for branch offi ce workers and Web-based applications. Our Application Sharing products leverage the explosive use of the Internet, driving the growth of our Online Division’s “soft ware-as-a-service” business. Citrix Systems, Inc. 2006 Annual Report 3 Application Virtualization Presentation Server I Desktop Server I EdgeSight Application Networking NetScaler I Access Gateway I WANScaler Online Services GoToMyPC I GoToAssist I GoToMeeting I GoToWebinar Citrix offers products in three high-growth markets for Application Delivery Infrastructure. Application Virtualization Th e ability to deliver Microsoft Windows- based applications—securely, cost-eff ectively and with high performance—continues to be a signifi cant driving force for our business. Citrix Presentation Server, our fl agship product line, is the most widely used virtualization technology in the world, serving over 100,000 organizations across the globe with this highly valued business capability. Today, we’re investing heavily in Presentation Server technologies—especially to leverage the enor- mous power of 64-bit technology—further reducing operating cost and improving its per for mance. In addition, we’re undertaking the significant transition to Microsoft’s new Longhorn Server platform, providing a migration path for customers and adding new virtualization capabilities for Windows applications. We’re also investing to expand our opportunity in virtualization markets. For example, our Dynamic Desktop Initiative (DDI) allows Windows “desktops” to be delivered—centrally from the datacenter—as a service. In concept, this initiative will do for “Windows desktops” what Presentation Server has done for “Windows applications.” Th e market for desktop delivery technology is expected to grow dramatically over the next three years. Analysts have estimated that 400 million PC desktops will be upgraded to Microsoft ’s new Windows Vista desktop. Faced with large- scale migrations, many organizations are re-evaluating their “desktop refresh” meth- ods, looking for more cost-eff ective, more secure and better ways. To address this opportunity, we’re introducing a new product line designed to revolutionize desktop refresh, replacing it with “desktop delivery.” Our Desktop Server product line will deliver Windows desktops from the datacenter as a secure on-demand service. Desktop Server builds upon virtualization technologies, industry partnerships and go-to-market engines already in place. Going forward, we’ll also incorporate streaming technologies from our recent acquisition of Ardence. Traditional ways to deliver a Windows-based application or desktop are labor intensive and costly. We believe the effi ciency, fl exibility and speed of virtualizing and streaming to the widest array of endpoint devices will grow more compelling and valuable—especially in a dynamic world. 4 Application Networking As applications accelerate their move to the Web and as end users become more geographically dispersed, customers need even more control over the security, perfor- mance and cost of application delivery. Th is has driven our investments to aggressively enter the adjacent, fast-growing Application Networking market. With our highly respected Citrix NetScaler off ering, our market-leading Citrix Access Gateway SSL VPN line of products, and our recently introduced Citrix WANScaler products, we are positioned to continue gaining market share in this space. Our NetScaler Web application delivery appli- ances are powering the most business-critical applications on the Web today, helping Google, Yahoo, eBay, Amazon, MySpace and many others maintain the security, performance and cost-effi ciency they need. In fact, we estimate that over 75% of Internet users pass through a Citrix NetScaler system every day. Our Access Gateway product line secures the point of access to applications of any type—Web or Windows. In just two years, Access Gateway has rapidly grown to an industry-leading position in SSL VPN market share. Th e recent introduction of Citrix WANScaler moves us into the rapidly grow- ing market of WAN optimization. WANScaler products will benefi t our customers with branch offices and remote workforces by accelerating application performance— exponentially—across wide-area networks. Application Networking product and services revenue tripled in 2006, to over $109 million, driven by early successes in Web application delivery, SSL VPN, and WAN optimization segments. Th e application networking market holds tremendous potential, and Citrix is at the forefront. Online Services In 2004, we formed our Online Services Division through a strategic acquisition, broadening our portfolio into Web-based application sharing and collaboration. It also brought the talent and technology we need to reach additional customer segments in a new way—through soft ware-as-a-service (SaaS). At the time, the soft ware landscape was changing and we believed that eventually, every enterprise soft ware company would need a competency in SaaS. Our online services business has allowed us to build pow- erful SaaS technical infra structure, to leverage the business model of a subscription-type service, and to get smarter about Web-based customer acquisition. In 2004, we started with two products and a run-rate of roughly $44 million. Since then, we’ve grown to four SaaS products and almost $150 million in revenue. Our most successful offering to-date, GoToMeeting, is one of the fastest-growing online collaboration solutions in the market today. It provides a fast, easy, secure and cost-eff ective way to train, demonstrate, and collaborate online. It leverages the same appli- cation- sharing technologies and customer acquisition model that’s made GoToAssist a leading product in its market and GoToMyPC products #1 in their markets. In 2006, we launched a fourth product, GoToWebinar that makes it easy for anyone to demonstrate, train and present information to large audiences over the Web. Historically, online events have been complex processes, oft en involving 50 to 100 time-consuming steps. GoToWebinar reduces it to three self-service steps, making it simple to deliver a successful webinar. GoToWebinar is off to a very fast start and shows how the core innovation in our SaaS infrastructure is providing Citrix with a platform for growth. Citrix Systems, Inc. 2006 Annual Report 5 Today, these online services are making application sharing and collaboration easy and cost-eff ective for prosumers and smaller customers to adopt. Looking forward, we believe larger customers will begin to see the value of SaaS products as well, making them increasingly strategic components of our end-to-end application delivery infrastructure. Strong Product Pipeline Th ese growth engines—application virtualiza- tion, application networking and online services—give us tremendous confi dence in our future. At the same time, we’re antici- pating customer needs, building an exciting pipeline of new technologies and products. Citrix customers will thrive in a more dynamic world with Citrix innovations. Th is is our fuel for sustainable growth. We’re integrating our new Citrix EdgeSight application performance-monitoring tech- nology into multiple product families, such as Presentation Server and NetScaler, which are becoming the fi rst application delivery systems with this important capability built in. We’re expanding our partnership with Microsoft through the joint development of a new “branch offi ce in-a-box” appliance, further extending our WAN optimization capabilities and increasing our addressable market opportunity. We’re building a workforce continuity SaaS product—a project we code-named “Kent”—that gives businesses on-demand communication, collaboration and applica- tion delivery capabilities needed to handle unforeseen events that prevent workers from getting to the offi ce. We have a great array of new tech nologies for streaming operating systems, virtual machine images, embedded systems and lots more that will allow us to continue to innovate on top of Microsoft ’s next-generation Windows Server—Longhorn Server. “ Our plan is simple—to provide IT with the power of a secure, end-to-end infrastructure for delivering applications and desktops—anywhere.” Growth and Sustainability Our pace of investment and our vision for Application Delivery has put us in an amazing position. We’re off ering quality solutions for the fl exibility, security, and effi ciencies that busi- nesses need from IT—now and in the future. A bank with Citrix products can open, close or merge branches in weeks—instead of months. Healthcare providers can deliver patient information directly to the point-of- care—saving lives, saving time and saving money. Teleworking employees can easily use a home PC to securely access their offi ce PC over any Internet connection. Schools with Citrix desktop streaming technology can aff ord more computing in classrooms, labs and the front offi ce. Small businesses with our online application-sharing products can leverage the Internet to reach customers across global markets. Our online assistance products allow technology companies to provide top-notch customer support over the Web and our new 6 Top 10 Strategic IT Vendors 1. Cisco 2. Microsoft 3. IBM 4. HP 5. Dell 6.

Citrix Systems Survey of IT executives asked to name the infrastructure vendors they consider most strategic to their business (Network World, 11/22/06). desktop delivery infrastructure lets manufac- turers tap into engineering talent in Hungary, China and India—without compromising intellectual property. Surveys of CIOs of mid- and large-size enter- prises tell us their most strategic challenges are not technology issues—they’re business issues. “Enabling business change and market respon- siveness” tops the list. Th is is not surprising. We are convinced that a strategic approach to delivering applications is the solution. Appli- cations live at the intersection of information technology and how business gets done. More frequently than ever, Citrix is acknowl- edged in the top ranks of strategic infrastructure vendors. Our goal, over time, is to rank consistently in the top fi ve. Our plan is sim- ple—to provide IT with the power of a secure, end-to-end infrastructure for delivering applications, information and content—any- where. As applications evolve, as user needs vary, as business venues shift and as new business opportunities appear, CIOs with Citrix products can say “bring it on!” Citrix has a solid record demonstrating the ability to see invention through to adoption. We do not assume that a technical advantage is our core value and competitive advantage. We believe that technical advantages can only be assumed to be short-term, and through solid execution, used to gain market positions which are long-term. Our market and growth are not being ignored by competition. We face larger competitors around the edges of our core markets, and smaller competitors that are completely focused on only one of our market segments. We’ll compete fiercely. End-to-end application delivery is our complete focus—not a sideline. We’ll diff erentiate, by being a thought leader, by off ering a single source for application delivery infrastructure, by developing a deliv- ery system that gets more intelligent as it becomes more complex and by continuously improving on the user’s access experience. I’m bullish about the business relevance of application delivery infrastructure—especially considering the velocity of change that will be emblematic of the next fi ve years. We have a compelling vision, a unique strategy, excellent execution, a winning mindset, a determined culture and the passion to make our customers successful. Th e board, the management team and I thank you for your continuing support.

Restatement of Financial Statements All of the financial information presented in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as elsewhere in this Annual Report has been adjusted to reflect the restatement of our financial results, as described in “Selected Consolidated Financial Data,” and Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. The impact under Accounting Principles Board, or APB, No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, of recognizing additional stock-based compensation expense and related tax effects as a result of our historical stock option granting practices is $3.1 million ($0.6 million net of income taxes and other tax charges) in 2005, $6.2 million ($0.4 million net of income taxes and other tax charges) in 2004, and Audit Committee has ever served on the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. This voluntary investigation was not in response to any governmental investigation, stockholder lawsuit, whistleblower complaint, or inquiries from media organizations. The investigation was conducted with the assistance of independent outside legal counsel and outside forensic accounting consultants, and covered option grants made to all employees during the period from January 1996 through December 2006. Management further evaluated all grants (consisting of two employee new hire grants) in December 1995, which was the month we completed our initial public offering, and all grants to non-employee directors. The investigation and related review consisted of approximately 191 grant dates (representing over 27,000 individual option grants and $156.3 million ($119.9 million net of income taxes and other approximately 108.7 million stock options). tax charges) for 2003 and all prior years commencing in December 1995. Independent Investigation of Historical Stock Option Granting Practices In connection with its investigation, the Audit Committee retained independent outside legal counsel that had not previously been engaged by us, to assist in the investigation. In turn, legal counsel retained outside forensic As a result of our Audit Committee’s investigation accounting experts and other consultants to assist it and of our historical stock option granting practices and the Audit Committee with financial accounting issues and management’s review, which has now been completed, related analytics during the investigation. The investigation we identified approximately 76.4 million stock option grants occurred over a period of approximately seven months. made on 138 grant dates during the period from December The investigative work conducted by the Audit Committee 1995 to March 31, 2005 for which we used incorrect included the following tasks, among others: measurement dates and as a result of revising those measurement dates, recorded stock-based compensation expense for financial accounting purposes under APB No. 25. To correct these errors, we have recorded a pre-tax cumulative charge of $165.7 million ($120.9 million on an after tax basis) in our consolidated financial statements through December 31, 2005 to reflect additional stock- based compensation expense. Background On November 30, 2006, after our management conducted a preliminary, limited scope review of certain of our stock option granting practices, our Audit Committee commenced a voluntary, independent investigation of our historical stock option granting practices and related accounting during the period from January 1996 through December 2006.

Historical Stock Option Granting Practices Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for our stock option grants under APB No. 25 and had provided the required disclosures pursuant to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation . On January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, under the modified prospective method. For the measurement date revisions we have made, we revised our historical pro forma footnote disclosures in accordance with SFAS No. 123. Additionally, we adjusted our 2006 consolidated financial statements to reflect the impact of any revised measurement dates on the compensation cost recognized in accordance with SFAS No. 123R. As permitted by the terms of our various stock plans (as amended and restated from time to time), the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors was vested with the authority to administer and grant stock options under the plans. Until November 2003, all employee stock option grants were required to be approved by the Compensation Committee. Beginning in November 2003 and continuing to the present, the Compensation Committee delegated authority, subject to specific parameters, to our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer to grant options to non-executive employees. Grants to Section 16 Officers, to employees whose compensation was subject to Section 162(m) of the of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the IRC, and other grants outside of the parameters discussed below continued to require Compensation Committee approval in order to complete the required granting actions. In the restatement, for grants requiring Compensation Committee approval, we generally determined that Compensation Committee approval was likely obtained at the next in-person meeting after the date of grant. This conclusion was based on the fact that Compensation Committee members recall signing consents in person at board meetings, that members of management recalled that it was our objective to present consents to the Committee at in-person meetings, that the consents contained in our records typically contain all signatures on a single page (consistent with having been signed in person), and that the available meta-data for such consents generally indicated that the consent forms were available for signature at that time. We generally used the in-person board meeting dates when determining revised measurement dates, because members of management responsible for approval and processing of these grants believed or acted as if approval was an important and required granting action for all grants that were not subject to the delegation of authority described below. For example, managers involved in processing grants: (i) said that they typically refrained from correcting grants approved by the Committee without further Committee action; but (ii) believed that alteration or correction of grant recipient and amount lists prior to Committee approval was permitted (and performed such corrections and alterations and did not consider them to be modifications); and (iii) believed Committee approval was necessary to grant options. There was some evidence that signatures were sometimes solicited at such meetings for consents previously signed and transmitted by fax or other means but because we did not retain these earlier obtained consents there was little evidence to indicate for which grants these approvals were obtained and when they were received. Where meta-data or other evidence led us to conclude that approval was not complete at the next in person meeting, we relied on the other evidence to select a later date. From December 1995 through December 2006, the exercise price for all grants was typically set at the closing price of our common stock on the original intended grant date. During this period, we made the following types of grants of stock options to employees, including officers, and members of our Board of Directors: • Annual grants in conjunction with our annual merit review process, which generally occurred a few months following our fiscal year end (referred to as annual grants). 16 Job TiTle CITRIX AR Revision 2 seRial <12345678> DaTe / Time Saturday, September 15, 2007 /9:01 AM Job numbeR 144230 Type Clean page no. 17 opeRaToR pM2 • Non-annual grants to newly hired and promoted employees and from time to time to officers in recognition of performance or as incentives. Beginning January 2004, we replaced promotion grants with performance grants that were granted to employees upon recommendation by their manager for recognition (new hire and performance, incentive or promotion grants are referred to collectively as non-annual grants). • Options granted or assumed in connection with acquisitions. • Options granted to non-employee members of our Board of Directors. From December 1995 through mid-1998, all employee by the Compensation Committee. Until 2002, annual grants were generally made in July or August of each year pursuant to a merit evaluation process. Beginning in 2002, annual grants were split into two grant dates in March and August. During this period all employee grants required approval by the Compensation Committee to complete the required granting actions and for most grants we did not obtain approval from the Compensation Committee, typically on unanimous written consent forms, until after the grant date and for certain grants, we had not completed the process of identifying the recipients or number of options to be granted until after the grant date. Beginning in November 2003, the Compensation Committee delegated its authority to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to issue stock options grants required approval by the Compensation Committee pursuant to specific parameters. The delegation provided to complete the required granting actions. In addition, we authority to grant no more than 4 million stock options per did not have a defined process for determining the date on year in the aggregate and to grant up to 10,000 options which we made grants and no granting pattern could be established for grants made during this period. Following per year to any employee who was not an officer subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as the investigation, the Audit Committee concluded that we amended, and whose compensation was not subject to likely set grant dates retrospectively for many stock options Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as granted to employees and executives during the 1996 to amended, or the IRC. In July 2004 the Compensation mid-1998 period. Beginning in mid-1998 through late 2003, all employee grants required approval by the Compensation Committee to complete the required granting actions. During this period, we made changes in our stock option granting practices which included implementing a practice where we typically dated non-annual grants to non-executives on the first business day of the month following the start or promotion date, unless that date was the first day of the month, in which case the grant date would be that date. We dated non-annual new hire and promotion grants to executives either on their start date or the first business day of the month following the start date or the promotion date; we awarded the incentive grants on an ad hoc basis. During this period, we made annual grants to executive and non-executive employees on dates that Committee increased that number to 20,000 options per employee per year. The delegation was also subject to other parameters, including that each grant be consistent in number with guidelines that provided the range of grants that could be awarded to each employee grade. Compensation Committee approval continued to be a required granting action for all stock option grants outside of the parameters of the delegated authority. For grants outside of the delegation of authority, the Compensation Committee often approved such grants at a meeting or by unanimous written consent form. In some cases the amount granted to each recipient was not final and/or the Compensation Committee had not approved the grants by the intended grant date. We also made grants to the employees of companies we acquired in connection with acquisitions. Grants made were typically previously discussed with the Compensation in conjunction with acquisitions were typically authorized Committee. However, during these earlier discussions, the at the time of the Board’s approval of the acquisition. Compensation Committee did not approve the terms and The exercise price of such grants was typically set at the allocation of grants to individual recipients or delegate to closing stock price of our common stock on the closing management the authority to do so without further action date of the acquisition.

Each individual stated grant date and the measurement date was revised grant on each grant date was evaluated based on its to the date that the evidence indicated that we completed particular facts and circumstances. Where we determined our allocation. We also grant options to the non-employee members of our Board of Directors, or the Board Grants, pursuant to a stockholder approved plan, as amended from time to time. The timing of the grant date and amount of such awards was granted pre-determined pursuant to a formula set forth either in the terms of the plan or via board resolution. Certain Board Grants were issued on a date other than the automatic grant date prescribed by the plan or differed by nominal amounts from the option amount pre-determined by the plan formula. Prior to the restatement discussed below, we used the grant dates as set forth above as the measurement date for financial accounting purposes. Accordingly, in each case the exercise price did not exceed the closing stock price of our common stock on that date, and we did not record stock-based compensation expense in connection with these grants. In the restatement, we revised the measurement dates for many grants and recorded stock-based compensation expense when the revised measurement date resulted in intrinsic value which we accounted for in the restatement. Adjustments to Measurement Dates Arising from Errors Identified by Audit Committee Investigation Based on the facts obtained as a result of the Audit Committee’s investigation, we identified certain grants for that we did not complete the required granting actions by the original grant date, we used judgment to determine corrected measurement dates consistent with what the evidence suggested was our practice or process or other information obtained as part of the investigation that suggested the date upon which all requirements for a measurement date had been satisfied under applicable accounting principles. If the measurement date was not the same date we used previously, we made accounting adjustments as required, which resulted in stock-based compensation and related tax effects when an option had intrinsic value on the revised measurement date. The documents and information considered in connection with the measurement date adjustments that we have made included, but was not limited to: • minutes of Board of Directors and Compensation Committee meetings and related presentations; • unanimous written consents signed by the Compensation Committee members, and evidence relating to the date such consents were created and circulated for signature and/or signed; • information contained in personnel files maintained for employees who were granted options; • electronic mail messages and other electronic files retrieved from our computer system and in back which we used an incorrect measurement date for financial up media; accounting purposes, as defined under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States, or GAAP. To determine the correct measurement dates for these grants under applicable accounting principles, we followed the guidance in APB No. 25, which deems the “measurement date” to be the first date on which all of the following are known with finality: (1) the identity of the individual • documentation prepared in connection with our annual performance reviews of employees as part of the process of determining the allocation of stock option grants to individual employees; • information as to the date of hire of the employee receiving the option grant, including (if the grant employee who is entitled to receive the option grant; (2) the was a new hire grant) the date of any offer letter; number of options that the individual employee is entitled to receive; and (3) the option’s exercise price. • correspondence, memoranda and other documentation supporting the option grant; 18 Job TiTle CITRIX AR Revision 2 seRial <12345678> DaTe / Time Saturday, September 15, 2007 /9:01 AM Job numbeR 144230 Type Clean page no. 19 opeRaToR pM2 • • information concerning the date or dates on which a stock option was entered into our stock option tracking system, Equity Edge; information obtained during interviews conducted by the Audit Committee’s outside counsel of numerous individuals, including current and former officers, directors, employees and outside professionals; and • analyses of our option grant performed by consultants engaged on behalf of the Audit Committee. Consistent with current accounting literature and published guidance from the staff of the SEC, we classified grants during the eleven-year period subject to the investigation into categories based on grant type and process by which the grant was finalized. The principal categories related to annual and non-annual grants in three time periods: (1) January 1996 through May 1998; (2) May 1998 through November 2003; and (3) November 2003 through December 2006. We also separately categorized grants to non-employee directors. The last grant with a revised measurement date was awarded in March 2005.There were no revised measurement dates in 2006. A summary of pre- tax stock-based compensation expense related to options awarded in each time period, in thousands, is as follows: Time Period January 1996 through May 1998 (includes two grants made in December 1995) May 1998 through November 2003 November 2003 through December 2005 Cumulative effect at December 31, 2005 Pre-Tax Stock-based Compensation Expense $ 62,171 103,272 224 $ 165,667 January 1996 – May 1998: In the restatement, we corrected generally used the date of the first in-person Board of the measurement dates for all 50 original grants dates Directors meeting after the evidence suggested that the during this period, consisting of approximately 24.2 million amount and terms of the grant were final as the revised options.

Compensation Committee approval continued to be a required granting action for all stock option grants outside of the parameters of the delegated authority, as described November 2003 – December 2006: Beginning in November above. For grants outside of the delegation of authority, 2003, we granted 9.5 million options to employees on 42 the Compensation Committee typically approved such grant dates pursuant to delegated authority described grants at a meeting or by unanimous written consent form. above. In virtually all cases these grants were made on During this period, the Compensation Committee approved predetermined annual grant dates or the first business 2.6 million options on 19 grant dates. We determined day of the month following the employee’s hire date or that for seven of these grant dates, the original grant performance recognition and were issued pursuant to an date differed from the appropriate measurement date for underlying system of processes, controls and management financial accounting purposes. We recorded approximately approvals.

The last grant for which we revised the CFO signed an internal delegation of authority form the measurement date was March 1, 2005. after the grant date. We concluded that the CFO’s signature on these documents was perfunctory and was not a required granting action. During this period, approximately 3% of the individual non-executive employee grants (or 7% of the total non-executive employee options) awarded pursuant to the delegation process exceeded the delegation limitations discussed above and should have been presented for approval by the Compensation Committee. Although these grants were not approved by the Compensation Committee, they were communicated to employees and processed pursuant to the same system of processes, controls and management approvals as Board Grants. From 1996 through 2006, we made 48 grants to non-employee directors on 21 grant dates for a total of 3.1 million options. We revised the measurement dates for certain of these grants because they were awarded on dates other than the automatic dates prescribed in the applicable stockholder plan and in amounts that differed nominally from the formulas set forth in the plan. We recognized approximately $0.5 million in pre-tax stock-based compensation expense related to the following grants: • We awarded to non-employee directors an grants within the limitations.

The Impact of the Errors on our Financial Statements We have determined that after accounting for forfeitures, the errors described above resulted in an understatement of stock-based compensation expense over the vesting grant was one day later than the automatic date terms of the grants corrected. Most of the adjusted prescribed by the stockholder approved plan and measurement dates were with respect to grants made prior the number of options were nominally different from the plan formula (aggregate difference of to December 31, 2004.

In accordance with the terms of the agreement, we will issue approximately 4.2 million shares of our common stock to the stockholders of XenSource and they will receive approximately $175.5 million in cash consideration. The number of shares, however, could increase to 6.5 million and the cash consideration could decrease to $92.5 million if certain conditions in the agreement are satisfied prior to the closing of the acquisition. In addition, in connection with the acquisition we will issue approximately 1.4 million unvested shares of our common stock and we will assume approximately 3.4 million stock options each of which will be exercisable for the right to receive one share of our common stock upon vesting. Transaction costs associated with the acquisition are currently estimated at $3.7 million. In addition, we estimate that we will expense approximately $8.0 to $10.0 million in IPR&D upon the closing of the transaction. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. We base these estimates on our historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, and these estimates form the basis for our judgments concerning the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We periodically evaluate these estimates and judgments based on available information and experience. Actual results could differ from our estimates under different assumptions The Sevin Rosen funds, a venture capital firm, is a and conditions.

Revenue Recognition The accounting related to revenue recognition in the software industry is complex and affected by interpretations of the rules and an understanding of industry practices, both of which are subject to change. As a result, revenue recognition accounting rules require us to make significant judgments. In addition, our judgment is required in assessing the probability of collection, which is generally based on evaluation of customer-specific information, historical collection experience and economic market conditions. If market conditions decline, or if the financial condition of our distributors or customers deteriorate, we may be unable to determine that collectibility is probable, and we could be required to defer the recognition of revenue until we receive customer payments. product returns, but we do provide most of our distributors with stock balancing and price protection rights. Stock balancing rights permit distributors to return products to us up to the forty-fifth day of the fiscal quarter, subject to ordering an equal dollar amount of our other products prior to the last day of the same fiscal quarter. Price protection rights require that we grant retroactive price adjustments for inventories of our products held by distributors or resellers if we lower our prices for such products. We establish provisions for estimated returns for stock balancing and price protection rights, as well as other sales allowances, concurrently with the recognition of revenue. The provisions are established based upon consideration of a variety of factors, including, among other things, recent and historical return rates for both specific products and distributors, estimated distributor inventory levels by product, the impact of any new product releases and projected economic conditions. Actual product returns We license most of our products bundled with a one year for stock balancing and price protection provisions incurred contract for license updates that provide the end-user with are, however, dependent upon future events, including free enhancements and upgrades to the licensed product the amount of stock balancing activity by our distributors on a when and if available basis.

We have not reduced and have no current plans to reduce our prices for inventory currently held by distributors or resellers. Accordingly, there were no reserves required for price protection at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005. We also record reductions to revenue for customer programs and incentive offerings including volume-based incentives, at the time the sale is recorded. If market conditions were to decline, we could take actions We currently use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options and employee stock purchase plan shares. The determination of the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, the expected term of the award, the risk-free interest rate and any expected dividends. to increase our customer incentive offerings, which could For purposes of determining the expected volatility factor, result in an incremental reduction to our revenue at the time we considered the implied volatility in two-year market- the incentive is offered. Stock-Based Compensation We adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, No. 123R, Share-Based Payment on January 1, 2006, the effective date for such adoption . Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for our stock-based compensation plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees , and related Interpretations, as permitted by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation . We did not recognize compensation cost related to stock options granted to our employees and non-employee directors that had an exercise price equal to or above the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant in our consolidated statement of income prior to January 1, 2006. We elected to adopt SFAS No. 123R using the modified-prospective method, under which compensation cost, based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R, is recognized beginning with the effective date for all stock-based awards granted to employees after the effective date and prior to the effective date that remain unvested as of the effective date. In addition, under the traded options on our common stock based on third party volatility quotes in accordance with the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin, or SAB, No. 107. Our decision to use implied volatility was based upon the availability of actively traded options on our common stock and our assessment that implied volatility is more representative of future stock price trends than historical volatility. The expected term of our options is based on historical and projected employee exercise patterns. We also analyzed our historical pattern of option exercises based on certain demographic characteristics and we determined that there were no meaningful differences in option exercise activity based on the demographic characteristic. The approximate risk free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with remaining terms equivalent to the expected term on our options. We do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and, accordingly, we used a dividend yield of zero in the option pricing model. We are required to estimate forfeitures at the time of grant and revise those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. We use historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures and record 30 Job TiTle CITRIX AR Revision 2 seRial <12345678> DaTe / Time Saturday, September 15, 2007 /9:01 AM Job numbeR 144230 Type Clean page no. 31 opeRaToR pM2 stock-based compensation expense only for those awards Existing valuation models, including the Black-Scholes and that are expected to vest.

This may result in a lack of consistency in future periods and materially affect the fair value estimate of stock-based payments. It may also result in a lack of comparability with other companies that use different models, methods and assumptions. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. These characteristics are not present in our option grants and employee stock purchase plan shares.

Actual results could differ materially. competitors’ products become more or less attractive. Discussions of our accounting policies for derivatives and hedging activities are included in Notes 3 and 14 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. Exposure to Exchange Rates A substantial majority of our overseas expense and capital purchasing activities are transacted in local currencies, including euros, British pounds sterling, Australian dollars, Swiss francs, Japanese yen, Hong Kong dollars, Canadian dollars, Danish krone and Swedish krona. To reduce exposure to reduction in U.S. dollar value and the volatility of future cash flows caused by changes in currency exchange rates, we have established a hedging program. We use foreign currency forward contracts to hedge certain forecasted foreign currency expenditures. Our hedging program significantly reduces, but does not entirely eliminate, the impact of currency exchange rate movements. We do not anticipate any material adverse impact to our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as a result of these foreign exchange forward contracts. Exposure to Interest Rates We have interest rate exposures resulting from our interest-based available-for-sale securities. We maintain available-for-sale investments in debt securities and we limit the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer or type of instrument. The securities in our investment portfolio are not leveraged. The securities classified as available-for-sale are subject to interest rate risk. The modeling technique used measures the change in fair values arising from an immediate hypothetical shift in market interest rates and assumes that ending fair values include principal plus accrued interest and reinvestment income. If market interest rates were to increase by 100 basis points from December 31, 2006 and 2005 levels, the fair value of the available-for-sale portfolio would At December 31, 2006 and 2005, we had in place foreign decline by approximately $1.8 million and $0.2 million, currency forward sale contracts with a notional amount of respectively.

For more information see Notes 5 and 14 to during the period from January 1996 through December our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere 2006. This investigation was conducted by the Audit in this Annual Report. During 2005, we entered into the Credit Facility, as amended in 2006, or the Amended Credit Facility. Accordingly, we could be exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates on our long-term debt. This exposure relates to our $100.0 million Amended Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility currently bear interest at variable rates based on LIBOR plus 0.32% and adjusts in the future in the range of 0.32% to 0.80% above LIBOR based on our level of total debt and our adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA. A hypothetical 1% interest rate change would not have any current impact on our Committee with the assistance of independent outside legal counsel and outside forensic accounting consultants. The Audit Committee completed its review in the second quarter of 2007. In addition, management also reviewed all grants (consisting of two employee new hire grants) in December 1995, which was the month we completed our initial public offering, and all grants to non-employee directors. Based on the results of the Audit Committee’s investigation and our review, we have revised the measurement dates for certain stock options granted during the period from December 1995 to March 2005, which required a restatement of our previously issued financial statements. results of operations as we have no amounts outstanding The revised measurement dates resulted from deficiencies on the Amended Credit Facility as of December 31, 2006. in our internal control over financial reporting that existed in prior periods. The last revised measurement date was in March 2005 and there were no adjustments related to options granted in 2006. We believe that the likelihood that a material error in our financial statements could have originated during 2006 and not have been detected as of December 31, 2006 is remote. In coming to this conclusion, management considered, among other things, changes that we have made in our stock option granting practices, which are described below, and the impact of the adjustments to our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. The adjustments to our consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 principally resulted from the vesting and tax impacts of measurement date revisions made to options granted prior to 2004. In April 2002, we entered into a synthetic lease with a substantive lessor totaling approximately $61.0 million related to office space utilized for our corporate headquarters in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Payments under this synthetic lease are indexed to a variable interest rate (LIBOR plus a margin). Based upon our interest rate exposure under this synthetic lease at December 31, 2006, a 100 basis point change in the current interest rate would have an immaterial effect on our financial position and results of operations. In addition to interest rate exposure, if the fair value of our headquarters property, under this synthetic lease, were to significantly decline, there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. As described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements and in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included elsewhere in this Annual Report in the fourth quarter of 2006, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors commenced a voluntary, independent investigation of our Citrix Systems, Inc. 2006 Annual Report 51 Job TiTle CITRIX AR Revision 2 seRial <12345678> DaTe / Time Saturday, September 15, 2007 /9:01 AM Job numbeR 144230 Type Clean page no. 52 opeRaToR pM2 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk We have made changes in our stock option granting practices, processes and controls, which we believe remediated past deficiencies in our historical stock option practices, including the following: • In response to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we implemented documentation and accounting policies, processes and procedures, which led to a segregation of responsibilities, the addition of reviews and reconciliations and redefinition of the roles and responsibilities of the personnel involved in our stock option granting and accounting processes; • In November 2003, our Compensation Committee delegated authority to our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer to grant stock options to our non-executive employees, subject to certain parameters; and • Prior to our January 2006 adoption of SFAS No. 123R and its related interpretations, we reviewed our stock option granting practices and revised policies and procedures to comply with the requirements regarding grant date determinations. 52 Job TiTle CITRIX AR Revision 2 seRial <12345678> DaTe / Time Saturday, September 15, 2007 /9:01 AM Job numbeR 144230 Type Clean page no. 53 opeRaToR pM2 Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures As of December 31, 2006, our management, with the • Establishment of improved processes and procedures for the documentation of corporate actions approving the grant of stock options, participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer including the use of unanimous written consents; and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial and Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (the COSO criteria). Based on our assessment we believe that, as of December 31, 2006, our internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria. The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears elsewhere in this Annual Report. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting We believe the control deficiencies that existed in prior years related to our stock option granting practices have been resolved and management has determined that there were no material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006. In order to further enhance our internal controls, management recommended the following enhancements to our equity compensation granting policies and procedures to the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, all of which were approved and implemented by us in the second quarter of 2007: • The adoption of a policy requiring that all equity awards to executive officers and other employees be granted and priced according to a pre- determined, fixed schedule each year; • Revisions and clarifications of the parameters of the Compensation Committee’s delegation of authority to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to make equity awards; Citrix Systems, Inc. 2006 Annual Report 53 Job TiTle CITRIX AR Revision 2 seRial <12345678> DaTe / Time Saturday, September 15, 2007 /9:01 AM Job numbeR 144230 Type Clean page no. 54 opeRaToR pM2 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Citrix Systems, Inc.

Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements In its Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company restated its consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2005 and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2005, and each of the quarters in its 2006 and 2005 to reflect additional stock-based compensation expense and related income tax effects for stock option awards granted since December 1995 and the financial statement impact for all subsequent periods. The restatement was to correct errors identified as the result of a voluntary, independent investigation of the Company’s historical stock option granting practices and related accounting that was conducted by the Audit Committee of its Board None of the members of the Audit Committee has ever served on the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. This voluntary investigation was not in response to any governmental investigation, stockholder lawsuit, whistleblower complaint, or inquiries from media organizations.

Management further evaluated all grants (consisting of two employee new hire grants) in December 1995, which was the month the Company completed its initial public offering, and all grants to non-employee directors. The investigation and related review consisted of approximately 191 grant dates (representing over 27,000 individual option grants and approximately 108.7 million stock options). In connection with its investigation, the Audit Committee retained independent outside legal counsel that had not previously been engaged by the Company, to assist in the investigation. In turn, legal counsel retained outside forensic accounting experts and other consultants to assist it and the Audit Committee with financial accounting issues and related analytics during the investigation. The investigation occurred over a period of approximately seven months. The investigative work conducted by the Audit Committee included the following tasks, among others: • Reviewing hard copy and electronic files obtained of Directors and management’s further review of all grants from the Company as well as other sources, (consisting of two employee new hire grants) in December 1995, which was the month the Company completed its initial public offering.

As permitted by the terms of the Company’s various stock plans (as amended and restated from time to time), the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors was vested with the authority to administer and grant stock options under the plans. During the period to November 2003, all employee stock option grants were required to be approved by the Compensation Committee. Until November 2003 and continuing to the present, the Compensation Committee delegated authority, subject to specific parameters, to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to grant options to non-executive employees. Grants to Section 16 Officers, Committee approval was permitted (and performed such corrections and alterations and did not consider them to be modifications); and (iii) believed Committee approval was necessary to grant options. There was some evidence that signatures were sometimes solicited at such meetings for consents previously signed and transmitted by fax or other means but because the Company did not retain these earlier obtained consents there was little evidence to indicate for which grants these approvals were obtained and when they were received.

From December 1995 through mid-1998, all employee Beginning in November 2003, the Compensation grants required approval by the Compensation Committee to complete the required granting actions. In addition, the Company did not have a defined process for determining the date on which the Company made grants and no granting pattern could be established for grants made during this period. Following the investigation, the Audit Committee concluded that the Company likely set grant dates retrospectively for many stock options granted to employees and executives during the 1996 to mid-1998 period. Beginning in mid-1998 through late 2003, all employee grants required approval by the Compensation Committee to complete the required granting actions. During this period, the Company made changes in its stock option granting practices which included implementing a practice where the Company typically dated non-annual grants to non-executives on the first business day of the month following the start or promotion date, unless that date was the first day of the month, in which case the grant date would be that date. The Company dated non-annual new hire and promotion grants to executives either on their Committee delegated its authority to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to issue stock options pursuant to specific parameters. The delegation provided authority to grant no more than 4 million stock options per year in the aggregate and to grant up to 10,000 options per year to any employee who was not an officer subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and whose compensation was not subject to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended, or the IRC. In July 2004 the Compensation Committee increased that number to 20,000 options per employee per year. The delegation was also subject to other parameters, including that each grant be consistent in number with guidelines that provided the range of grants that could be awarded to each employee grade. Compensation Committee approval continued to be a required granting action for all stock option grants outside of the parameters of the delegated authority. For grants outside of the delegation of authority, the Compensation Committee often approved such grants at a meeting or by unanimous written consent form. In some cases the 64 Job TiTle CITRIX AR Revision 2 seRial <12345678> DaTe / Time Saturday, September 15, 2007 /8:31 AM Job numbeR 144230 Type Clean page no. 65 opeRaToR pM3 amount granted to each recipient was not final and/or the Compensation Committee had not approved the grants by Adjustments to Measurement Dates Arising from Errors Identified by Audit Committee Investigation the intended grant date. The Company also made grants to the employees of companies it acquired in connection with acquisitions. Grants made in conjunction with acquisitions were typically authorized at the time of the Board’s approval of the acquisition. The exercise price of such grants was typically set at the closing stock price of the Company’s common stock on the closing date of the acquisition. During the investigation, the Company noted one grant date where the grant was approved by its Board of Directors in conjunction with the acquisition; however, the Company had not completed the required granting actions by the stated grant date and the measurement date was revised to the date that the evidence indicated that the Company completed its allocation. The Company also grants options to the non-employee members of its Board of Directors, or the Board Grants, pursuant to a stockholder approved plan, as amended from time to time. The timing of the grant date and amount of such awards was granted pre-determined pursuant to a formula set forth either in the terms of the plan or via board resolution. Certain Board Grants were issued on a date other than the automatic grant date prescribed by the plan or differed by nominal amounts from the option amount pre-determined by the plan formula. Prior to the restatement discussed below, the Company used the grant dates as set forth above as the measurement date for financial accounting purposes. Based on the facts obtained as a result of the Audit Committee’s investigation, the Company identified certain grants for which it used an incorrect measurement date for financial accounting purposes, as defined under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States, or GAAP. To determine the correct measurement dates for these grants under applicable accounting principles, the Company followed the guidance in APB No. 25, which deems the “measurement date” to be the first date on which all of the following are known with finality: (1) the identity of the individual employee who is entitled to receive the option grant; (2) the number of options that the individual employee is entitled to receive; and (3) the option’s exercise price. The Company completed a grant date by grant date analysis of approximately 191 option grant dates during the relevant period for compliance with APB No. 25. Each individual grant on each grant date was evaluated based on its particular facts and circumstances. Where the Company determined that it did not complete the required granting actions by the original grant date, it used judgment to determine corrected measurement dates consistent with what the evidence suggested was its practice or process or other information obtained as part of the investigation that suggested the date upon which all requirements for a measurement date had been satisfied under applicable accounting principles. If the measurement date was not the same date the Company used previously, it made accounting adjustments as required, which resulted in Accordingly, in each case the exercise price did not exceed stock-based compensation and related tax effects when an the closing stock price of the Company’s common stock option had intrinsic value on the revised measurement date. on that date, and the Company did not record stock-based compensation expense in connection with these grants. In the restatement, the Company revised the measurement dates for many grants and recorded stock-based compensation expense when the revised measurement date resulted in intrinsic value which the Company accounted for in the restatement. The documents and information considered in connection with the measurement date adjustments that the Company has made included, but was not limited to: • • minutes of Board of Directors and Compensation Committee meetings and related presentations; unanimous written consents signed by the Compensation Committee members, and evidence relating to the date such consents were created and circulated for signature and/or signed; Citrix Systems, Inc. 2006 Annual Report 65 Job TiTle CITRIX AR Revision 2 seRial <12345678> DaTe / Time Saturday, September 15, 2007 /8:31 AM Job numbeR 144230 Type Clean page no. 66 opeRaToR pM3 notes to Consolidated Financial Statements • • information contained in personnel files maintained • information obtained during interviews conducted by for employees who were granted options; the Audit Committee’s outside counsel of numerous electronic mail messages and other electronic files retrieved from the Company’s computer system and in back up media; • documentation prepared in connection with the Company’s annual performance reviews of employees individuals, including current and former officers, directors, employees and outside professionals; and • analyses of the Company’s option grant performed by consultants engaged on behalf of the Audit Committee. • • • as part of the process of determining the allocation of Consistent with current accounting literature and published stock option grants to individual employees; guidance from the staff of the SEC, the Company information as to the date of hire of the employee receiving the option grant, including (if the grant was a new hire grant) the date of any offer letter; classified grants during the eleven-year period subject to the investigation into categories based on grant type and process by which the grant was finalized. The principal categories related to annual and non-annual grants in three correspondence, memoranda and other time periods: (1) January 1996 through May 1998; (2) May documentation supporting the option grant; 1998 through November 2003; and (3) November 2003 information concerning the date or dates on which a stock option was entered into the Company’s stock option tracking system, Equity Edge; through December 2006. The Company also separately categorized grants to non-employee directors. The last grant with a revised measurement date was awarded in March 2005. There were no revised measurement dates in 2006. A summary of pre-tax stock-based compensation expense related to options awarded in each time period, in thousands, is as follows: Time Period January 1996 through May 1998 (includes two grants made in December 1995) May 1998 through November 2003 November 2003 through December 2005 Cumulative effect at December 31, 2005 Pre-Tax Stock-based Compensation Expense $ 62,171 103,272 224 $ 165,667 January 1996 – May 1998: In the restatement, the grant dates for many stock options granted to employees Company corrected the measurement dates for all 50 and executives during the January 1996 through May original grants dates during this period, consisting of 1998 period.

During this period, approximately May 1998 – November 2003: During this period the Company issued approximately 70.5 million options over 87 grant dates. In the restatement, the Company corrected measurement dates for approximately 50.6 million options granted on 79 of the 87 grants dates. The Company made these corrections because it did not complete the required granting actions by the original grant date, including, obtaining approvals from the Compensation Committee and not finalizing the amounts or recipients as of the original grant date. 3% of the individual non-executive employee grants (or 7% of the total non-executive employee options) awarded pursuant to the delegation process exceeded the delegation limitations discussed above and should have been presented for approval by the Compensation Committee. Although these grants were not approved by the Compensation Committee, they were communicated to employees and processed pursuant to the same system of processes, controls and management approvals as grants within the limitations. The Company has concluded that these grants were legally outstanding and that the During this period, a substantial majority of the grants were requirements to establish a measurement date were met approved using unanimous written consent forms signed on the original grant date. by the Compensation Committee for which, in most cases, there was no documentary evidence of when approval was actually obtained. As discussed above, where there was insufficient evidence to determine when approval conclusively was obtained, the Company generally used the date of the first in-person Board of Directors meeting after the evidence suggested that the amount and terms of the grant were final as determined by management as the revised measurement date for financial accounting purposes. However, if there was evidence sufficient for the Company to conclude that the required granting actions were completed on a date that was earlier than the next in-person Board meeting, in accordance with APB No.25, the Company set the revised measurement date at the earlier date. November 2003 – December 2006: Beginning in November 2003, the Company granted 9.5 million options to employees on 42 grant dates pursuant to delegated authority described above. In virtually all cases The Company revised the measurement date for the non- executive annual grant originally dated April 1, 2004. The grant was issued pursuant to the delegation of authority above and was revised because the Company had not completed the process of determining grant amounts and recipients until after the grant date. The Company determined revised measurement dates for each individual recipient through May 20, 2004 by assessing when each grant was fixed with finality as reflected in hard copy and electronic documents and other information. This was the only grant date that options issued under delegated authority were revised and the Company recognized total pre-tax stock compensation expense of approximately $0.2 million related to this grant. Compensation Committee approval continued to be a required granting action for all stock option grants outside of the parameters of the delegated authority, as described above.

As indicated above, most of the adjusted measurement dates were prior to December 31, 2004. Accordingly, additional compensation expense related to grant date changes subsequent to December 2003 was nominal. The additional compensation expense in 2004 and 2005 reflected below primarily relates to the impact of vesting on awards granted prior to 2004.

The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with investments by investing primarily in investment grade, highly liquid securities. The Company’s policy is designed to limit exposure to any one issuer depending on credit quality. Periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of those issuers are considered in the Company’s investment strategy. The Company uses information provided by third parties to adjust the carrying value of certain of its investments and derivative instruments to fair value at the end of each period. Fair values are based on valuation models that use market quotes and, for certain investments, assumptions as to the creditworthiness of the Restricted Cash Equivalents and Investments entities issuing those underlying instruments. Restricted cash equivalents and investments at December 31, 2006 and 2005 are primarily comprised of $62.8 million in investment securities and cash equivalents pledged as collateral for specified obligations under the Company’s synthetic lease arrangement. The Company maintains the ability to manage the composition of the restricted cash equivalents and investments within certain limits and to withdraw and use excess investment earnings from the restricted collateral for operating purposes. For further information, see Note 11. Investments Accounts Receivable The Company’s accounts receivable are due from value-added resellers, distributors and end customers. Collateral is not required.

The Company’s product licenses are generally perpetual. The Company also separately sells license updates and services, which may include product training, technical support and consulting services, as well as online services. The Company’s software products are purchased by medium and small-sized businesses, with a minimal number of locations, and larger business enterprises with more complex multiserver environments that deploy the Company’s software products on a departmental or enterprise-wide basis. Products may be delivered indirectly by channel distributors or original equipment manufacturers or directly to the end-user by the Company via packaged product or download from the Company’s Website. The Company’s appliance products are integrated with software that is essential to the functionality of the equipment. The Company provides license updates for appliances, which include unspecified software upgrades and enhancements through its maintenance contracts. Accordingly, for these appliances, the Company accounts for revenue in accordance with SOP No. 97-2, “ Software Revenue Recognition, (as amended by SOP 98-4 and SOP 98-9)” and all related interpretations, as described in detail below.

For technical support, product training and consulting services, the Company requires a purchase order and an executed agreement. For online services, the Company requires the customer or the reseller to electronically accept the terms of an online services agreement or execute a contract. • Delivery has occurred and the Company has no remaining obligations. For product license and appliance sales, the Company’s standard delivery method is free-on-board shipping point.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities In accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and its related interpretations and amendments, the Company records derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measures those instruments at fair value.

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are adjusted to fair value through earnings as other (expense) income in the period the changes in fair value occur. The application of the provisions of SFAS No. 133 could impact the volatility of earnings. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. This process Income Taxes The Company estimates income taxes based on rates in effect in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The realization of deferred tax assets is based on historical tax positions and expectations about future taxable income.

The Company also formally assesses, both at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether each derivative is highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows or fair value of the hedged item. Fluctuations in the value of the derivative instruments are generally offset by changes in the hedged item; however, if it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge or if a derivative ceases to be a highly effective hedge, the Company will discontinue hedge accounting prospectively for the affected derivative. Advertising Expense Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates made by management include the provision for doubtful accounts receivable, provision for estimated returns for stock balancing and price protection rights, as well as other sales allowances, the assumptions used in the valuation of stock-based awards, the valuation of the Company’s goodwill, net realizable value of core and product technology, the provision for vacant facility costs, The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.

Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the Company The 2005 ESPP was originally adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors and approved by the Company’s stockholders in 2005. The 2005 ESPP replaced the Company’s 1995 ESPP under which no more shares may be granted. Under the 2005 ESPP, all full-time and certain part-time employees of the Company are eligible to receive options to purchase common stock of the Company twice per year at the end of a six month payment period (a “Payment Period”). During each Payment Period, eligible employees who so elect may authorize payroll deductions in an amount no less than 1% nor greater than 10% of his or her base pay for each payroll period in the Payment Period. At the end of each Payment Period, the accumulated deductions are used to purchase shares of common stock from the Company up to a maximum of 12,000 shares for any one employee during a Payment Period. Shares are purchased at a price equal to 85% of presented all tax benefits from deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in its statement of cash flows. SFAS No. 123R requires that the portion of benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation (the “excess tax benefits”) be presented as financing cash flows. The excess tax benefits were approximately $51.9 million, for 2006, and would have been presented as an operating cash inflow prior to the adoption SFAS No. 123R. In addition, the Company previously presented deferred compensation as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Upon adoption, of SFAS No. 123R, the Company reclassified the balance in deferred compensation to additional paid-in capital on its accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. 88 Job TiTle CITRIX AR Revision 2 seRial <12345678> DaTe / Time Saturday, September 15, 2007 /8:31 AM Job numbeR 144230 Type Clean page no. 89 opeRaToR pM3 Pro Forma Information Under SFAS No. 123 for Periods Prior to January 1, 2006 The following table illustrates the effect on net earnings and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock- based awards in 2005 and 2004 (in thousands, except per share information): Net income: As reported Add: Total stock-based employee compensation included in net income as reported, net of related tax effects Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of related tax effects Pro forma Basic earnings per share: As reported Pro forma Diluted earnings per share: As reported Pro forma 2005 (restated) 2004 (restated) $ 165,609 $ 131,287 5,767 5,159 (38,475) (47,002) $ 132,901 $ 89,444 $ $ $ $ 0.96 0.77 0.93 0.75 $ $ $ $ 0.78 0.53 0.75 0.51 For purposes of the pro forma calculations, the fair value of model, assuming no expected dividends, and the following each option was estimated on the date of the grant using assumptions: the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, assuming no expected dividends, and the following assumptions: Stock Options granted during 2005 2004 Expected volatility factor 0.38–0.49 Approximate risk free interest rate 3.7%-4.4% 3.0%-3.5% 3.32 – 4.76 Expected term (in years) 0.31–0.35 3.32 The Company estimated the expected volatility factor based upon implied and historical data.

Capital Stock Stock Repurchase Programs The Company’s Board of Directors authorized an ongoing stock repurchase program with a total repurchase authority granted to the Company of $1.5 billion, of which $200 million was authorized in February 2006 and $300 million was authorized in October 2006. The Company may use the approved dollar authority to repurchase stock at any time until the approved amounts are exhausted. The objective of the Company’s stock repurchase program is to improve stockholders’ returns.

Long-Term Debt Credit Facility The Company made prepayments to financial institutions, net of premiums received, during 2006, 2005, and 2004 of approximately $114.4 million, $52.2 million and $107.0 million, respectively. During 2006, 2005 and 2004, the Company expended approximately $159.8 million, $122.2 million and $14.9 million, respectively, on open market purchases. Under its structured stock repurchase agreements the Company took delivery of 4,307,112 shares, at an average price of $30.76, 2,302,217 shares at an average price of $22.02 and 3,585,740 shares, at an average price of $19.19 during 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Due to the fact that the total shares to be received under its structured repurchase arrangements at December 31, 2006 is not determinable until the contracts mature, the above price per share amounts exclude the remaining shares to be received subject to the agreements. As of December 31, 2006, the Company has remaining prepaid notional amounts of approximately $36.3 million remaining under structured stock repurchase agreements, which expire in January 2007. The Company repurchased 5,193,410 shares of outstanding common stock with an average price of $30.77, repurchased 5,054,400 shares of outstanding common stock with an average price of $24.18 and repurchased 873,000 shares with an average price of $17.06 during 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively, in its open market purchase transactions. In addition, a significant portion of the funds used to repurchase stock was funded by proceeds from employee stock option exercises and the related tax benefits. The Company suspended its stock repurchase program for the duration of its Audit Committee’s voluntary, independent review of the Company’s historical stock option granting practices and related accounting. For more information on the Audit Committee’s independent review of historical stock option granting practices and related Effective on August 9, 2005, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a group of financial institutions (the “Lenders”). Effective September 27, 2006, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of its Credit Facility (the “Amendment”). The Amendment decreased the overall range of interest rates the Company will pay on amounts outstanding on the Credit Facility and lowered the facility fee. In addition, the Amendment extended the term of the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility, as amended, allows the Company to increase the revolving credit commitment up to a maximum aggregate revolving credit commitment of $175.0 million. The Credit Facility, as amended, currently provides for a revolving line of credit that will expire on September 27, 2011 in the aggregate amount of $100.0 million, subject to continued covenant compliance. A portion of the revolving line of credit (i) in the aggregate amount of $25.0 million may be available for issuances of letters of credit and (ii) in the aggregate amount of $15.0 million may be available for swing line loans. The Credit Facility currently bears interest at LIBOR plus 0.32% and adjusts in the range of 0.32% to 0.80% above LIBOR based on the level of the Company’s total debt and its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) as defined in the agreement. In addition, the Company is required to pay a quarterly facility fee ranging from 0.08% to 0.20% based on the aggregate amount available under the Credit Facility, as amended, and the level of the Company’s total debt and its adjusted EBITDA. Borrowings under the Credit Facility, as amended, are guaranteed by the Company and certain of the Company’s United States and foreign subsidiaries, which guarantees are secured by a pledge of shares of certain foreign subsidiaries. During 2005, the Company borrowed and repaid $75.0 million under the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2006, there were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility, accounting see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of as amended.

In addition, the Company was required to pay a quarterly facility fee ranging from 0.125% to 0.25% based on the aggregate amount of the Term Loan and the level of the Company’s total debt and its adjusted EBITDA. The Term Loan was paid in full in February 2006. 10. Fair Values of Financial Instruments The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to the short maturity of these items. The Company’s investments classified as available-for-sale securities, including restricted investments, are carried at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets based primarily on quoted market prices for such financial instruments.

The synthetic lease represents a form of off-balance sheet financing under which an unrelated third party lessor funded 100% of the costs of acquiring the property and leases the asset to the Company. The synthetic lease qualifies as an operating lease for accounting purposes and as a financing lease for tax purposes. The Company does not include the property or the related lease debt as an asset or a liability in its consolidated balance sheets. Consequently, payments made pursuant to the lease are recorded as operating expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The Company entered into the synthetic lease in order to lease its headquarters properties under more favorable terms than under its previous $51.9 million and possession of the buildings will be returned to the lessor. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates the property for indicators of impairment. If an evaluation were to indicate that fair value of the property had declined below $51.9 million, the Company would be responsible for the difference under its residual value guarantee, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. The synthetic lease includes certain financial covenants including a requirement for the Company to maintain a pledged balance of approximately $62.8 million in cash and/or investment securities as collateral. This amount is included in restricted cash equivalents and investments in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company maintains the ability to manage the composition of the restricted investments within certain limits and to withdraw and use excess investment earnings from the restricted collateral for operating purposes. Additionally, the Company must maintain a minimum cash and investment balance of $100.0 million, excluding the Company’s collateralized investments, equity investments and outstanding debt as of the end of each fiscal quarter. As of December 31, 2006, the Company had approximately $642.5 million in cash and investments in excess of this required level.

Because of delays in filing the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2007, the Company was at risk of breaching the affirmative covenant requiring its Annual Report on Form 10-K to be provided to the lessor within 100 days after the end of its fiscal year end and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q within 55 days after the end of its fiscal quarters. The Company received waivers related to these covenant breaches to extend the due date of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, leasehold improvements. During the third quarter of 2006, the Company entered into an agreement, which assigned the operating lease and all remaining liabilities related to one of the closed offices to a third party. Lease obligations related to the remaining existing operating lease continues to 2018 with a total remaining obligation at December 31, 2006 of approximately $8.9 million, of which $1.6 million was accrued as of December 31, 2006, and is reflected in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In calculating this accrual, the Company made estimates, based on market information, including the estimated vacancy periods and sublease rates and opportunities. The Company periodically re- evaluates its estimates and if actual circumstances prove to be materially worse than management has estimated, the total charges for these vacant facilities could be significantly higher. 2007 until October 31, 2007. The Company provided such Legal Matters reports to its lessor on September 14, 2007. In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, which addresses the consolidation of variable interest entities in which an enterprise absorbs a majority of the entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, contractual or other financial interests in the entity. In December 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46 (revised). FIN No. 46 (revised) was effective immediately for certain disclosure requirements and variable interest entities referred to as special-purpose entities for periods ending after December 15, 2003 and for all types of entities for financial statements for periods ending after March 15, 2004. The Company determined that it was not required to consolidate the lessor, the leased facility or the related debt upon the adoption of FIN No. 46 (revised). Accordingly, there was no impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows from adoption. However, if the lessor were to change its ownership of the property or significantly change its ownership of other properties that it currently holds, the Company could be required to consolidate the entity, the leased facility and the debt in a future period. 6 In 2006, the Company was sued in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio and in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, in each case for alleged infringement of U.S. patents by Citrix Online Division’s GoToMyPC service. The complaints name Citrix Systems, Inc. and Citrix Online LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Citrix Systems, Inc., as defendants and seek unspecified damages and other relief. In response, the Company filed answers denying that GoToMyPC infringes these patents and alleging, among other things, that the asserted claims of these patents are invalid. In January 2007, a similar suit naming Citrix Systems, Inc. was filed in the United States District Court of the Eastern District of Texas, and the Company has filed a response denying infringement and alleging that the asserted patent is invalid. On November 2, 2006, the court in the Northern District of Ohio held a hearing for the purpose of construing disputed terms of the claims of the patent-in-suit, and on March 13, 2007, the court issued a claim construction ruling. On March 21, 2007, the Company moved for leave to amend its answer in that case to assert an affirmative defense and counterclaim of inequitable conduct, which is a complete defense.

The Company also received a demand letter dated March 15, 2007 from a purported stockholder with respect to certain stock option grants made to its current and former directors and officers during the years 1996 through 2003. That demand letter asserts, among other things, that certain stock option grants made by the Company were dated and accounted for inappropriately. The demand letter seeks, among other things, the commencement by the Company’s Board of Directors of an action against its directors and officers from 1996 forward for alleged breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with the granting of the options.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair November 15, 2006, with earlier adoption encouraged. The primary concepts set forth in SAB No. 108 are as follows: Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes (a) registrants should quantify errors using both the “rollover” guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures approach (current year statement of operations effect) and regarding fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does “iron curtain” approach (year end balance sheet effect) and not require any new fair value measurements but rather evaluate whether either approach results in quantifying eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various a misstatement that, when all relevant quantitative prior accounting pronouncements. SFAS No. 157 is and qualitative factors are considered, is material; (b) if effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, correcting an item in the current year materially affects the 2007. Earlier adoption is permitted, provided the company current year but the item was not material in any prior years, has not yet issued financial statements, including for interim the prior year financial statements should be corrected, periods, for that fiscal year. The Company is currently even though such revision previously was and continues evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 157, but does not expect to be immaterial to the prior year financial statements; that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material however, in this circumstance, the correction can be made impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, the next time the prior year financial statements are filed; results of operations or cash flows. In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB No. 108 is effective for fiscal years ending on or after (c) for purposes of evaluating materiality under the “iron curtain” approach, all uncorrected errors on the balance sheet are presumed to be reversed into the statement of operations in the current period even though some or all of the uncorrected difference may relate to periods prior to the latest statement of operations presented and, Citrix Systems, Inc. 2006 Annual Report 103 Job TiTle CITRIX AR Revision 2 seRial <12345678> DaTe / Time Saturday, September 15, 2007 /8:31 AM Job numbeR 144230 Type Clean page no. 104 opeRaToR pM3 notes to Consolidated Financial Statements therefore, would only impact opening accumulated earnings adoption of SAB No. 108 did not have a material effect on (deficit) or if the amount of the uncorrected difference(s) is the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of determined to be material to the current period statement of operations or cash flows. operations, then such amount would be deemed material and would have to be corrected for in the manner set forth above. SAB No. 108 provides for the following transition guidance in the initial period of adoption: (a) restatement of prior years is not required if the registrant properly applied its previous approach, either “rollover” or “iron curtain” approach, so long as all relevant qualitative factors were considered; (b) the SEC Staff will not object if a registrant records a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to correct errors existing in prior years that previously had been considered immaterial, quantitatively and qualitatively, based on the appropriate use of the registrant’s previous approach; (c) if prior years are not restated, the cumulative effect adjustment is recorded in opening accumulated In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. No. 159 permits companies to choose to measure certain financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The standard requires that unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected be reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, although earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that SFAS No. 159 will have on its consolidated financial statements, if any. 17.
