Dear stockholders, customers, partners, and employees,

Fiscal 2014 was a year of strong investment and good progress for eGain. We enhanced our product

leadership, expanded sales and distribution, and developed strategic partnerships to capitalize on

the significant customer engagement market opportunity. These investments have already begun to

show results, with more expected in fiscal 2015.

In fiscal 2014, we generated record revenue of $70 million, a 19 percent increase over the prior

year. Cloud software revenue was up 36 percent year over year, and total recurring revenue was up

25 percent year over year. After a bookings slowdown in the first three quarters, our fourth quarter

bookings increased 100 percent sequentially and 9 percent year over year. We look forward to

building on this momentum in fiscal 2015.

Products

Over the past couple of years, we have seen growing interest from clients to innovate and add

value to our platform. In response, we delivered in fiscal 2014 a full set of knowledge management

APIs that are now being used by leading clients such as LexisNexis and Vodafone. Another key area

of investment for us has been mobile, with all our customer-facing capabilities now mobile-ready.

We also delivered the eGain SDK for mobile apps which allows our clients to easily embed our

engagement capabilities inside their mobile apps. In-app customer engagement is an emerging area

of innovation, and our solution enables businesses to differentiate their customer experience with

this capability.

Earlier in the year, we launched eGain OneTag™, a capability to easily track customer journeys on

the web (and other touch points). As we engaged with clients, especially in the context of our

growing Cisco partnership, we discovered that while they loved the notion of analytics and
intervention for digital engagement, they really wanted it for digital and voice channels. We

evaluated the build versus buy option around this opportunity and decided to acquire Exony for

three reasons: their talented, energetic team,

their market-leading capability in call center

operation management and analytics, and the time-to-market acceleration of our converged

customer engagement vision.

This acquisition also provides significant short-term opportunity to cross-sell and scale across the

two client bases. Moreover, both eGain and Exony are successful SolutionsPlus partners of Cisco.

Working as one, we will deliver even more innovative and unique solutions to the Cisco ecosystem.

Cloud

We increased our investment in improving the security and reliability of our cloud offering. We

launched the eGain Enhanced Security Network (eGain ESN™) to service the security needs of our

largest cloud clients. Moving forward, this level of security will be available as part of our premium

cloud offering, consistent with our strategy to offer more and more value out of the box. We also

invested in enhancing the disaster recovery (DR) capability of eGain Cloud. Finally, we expanded

our compliance and certification around industry standards like PCI and HIPAA.

Sales and marketing

We increased our sales and marketing spend in fiscal 2014. Specifically, we added new sales reps in

existing regions and entered new markets, Germany and France. These investments will yield

results in fiscal 2015. Also, in early fiscal 2015, we promoted AJ Berkeley to Senior VP of Worldwide

Sales. In this new role, he will oversee all aspects of global sales, including customer and partner

relationships, sales strategy and execution. AJ uniquely combines a wealth of industry experience,

proven sales leadership skills, and eGain context. Over the last couple of years, he led the team

that successfully negotiated, launched, and grew our Cisco SolutionsPlus partnership.

Partnerships

At the beginning of fiscal 2014, we announced our Cisco SolutionsPlus partnership to resell eGain

on-premises products. From this standing start, we successfully acquired four new customers in the

first half of fiscal 2014 and another 12 customers in the second half. Later in the year, we also

added the eGain cloud solution to the Cisco SolutionsPlus portfolio. We believe that our continued

investment in this partnership will yield even better results in fiscal 2015 and beyond.

Looking ahead, we see two powerful trends. The convergence of voice and digital into omnichannel,

and the contact center refresh cycle. Together, they create a market disruption that favors

comprehensive platform providers like eGain. We intend to seize this opportunity with easy-to-use,

unified, and innovative solutions that can be flexibly consumed.

Making “Omnichannel Easy” for our clients is fun, fulfilling and hard work. For this our employees

and partners deserve all credit. I am privileged to lead them as we build the future to help

businesses easily deliver omnichannel customer experiences.

Sincerely,

Ashu Roy

Chief Executive Officer

BUSINESS  

ITEM 1. 
Overview  

PART I  

eGain is a leading provider of cloud-based and on-site customer engagement software solutions. eGain’s customer engagement 
solutions power digital  transformation  strategies  for  leading brands. Our top-rated  applications for social,  mobile,  web,  and  contact 
centers help clients deliver connected customer journeys in a multichannel world.  

Industry Background  

As  products  get  commoditized  in  a  global  economy,  differentiation  increasingly  depends  on  customer  engagement.  For 
businesses  that  sell  to  consumers,  or  B2C,  one  poor  customer  experience  can  be  amplified  and  spread  overnight  through  social 
networks.  Consumers  expect  businesses  to  serve  them  conveniently  and  intelligently  across  all  touch  points.  Furthermore, 
multichannel customers are more demanding and spend more than the average customer. Not surprisingly, businesses are looking for 
efficient, scalable solutions to deliver smart multichannel customer interactions.  

Traditional customer relationship management, or CRM, solutions are not designed for the multichannel world. Mostly, they see 
the  phone  as  the  primary  customer  contact  channel.  Other  channels  like  web  and  social  are  seen  as  secondary  and  are  often  not 
designed in the solution from the start. As a result, customer experience delivered through these platforms tends to be fragmented and 
inconsistent  across  channels.  For  instance,  unified  customer  history  across  channels  requires  solution  integration  and  user  interface 
patchwork.  

The eGain Solution  
Our solution is designed to provide clients with the following benefits:

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

Build profitable long-term customer relationships. Customers are spending more time conducting business on the web and 
social  channels.  Our  solution  helps  businesses  design  brand-aligned,  multichanneled  customer  journeys.  Whether  a 
customer is looking to buy, ask a question, or pay a bill, our solution helps businesses provide customers personalized, 
consistent responses.  

Increase revenue through intelligent assistance offers and contextual promotions. In addition to strengthening customer 
relationships, our solution helps businesses convert website visitors into buyers. It also enables agents to contextually up-
sell  and  cross-sell  products  in  the  course  of  customer  engagements.  A  visitor  to  a  website  that  uses  eGain  can  be 
proactively  offered  personalized  promotional  content  or  real-time  assistance  based  on  configurable  business  rules 
informed by visitor behavior and history. Visitors can collaborate with a customer service agent live over the web through 
click-to-Call, text and video chat and cobrowse to inquire about and buy a product. Customers calling into a service center 
can be offered powerful cross-sell offers by agents using the expert reasoning capability of eGain.  

Reduce operating costs through improved agent productivity and self-service automation. Our solution helps companies 
provide highly effective customer service while reducing operating costs. Our intelligent routing, auto-response, tracking, 
and reporting features, complemented with agent-facing knowledge tools, measurably enhance the productivity of service 
agents. Our robust online self-service tools, with integrated escalation paths and sophisticated artificial intelligence, help 
resolve customer inquiries without human assistance.  

Reduce total cost of ownership through an open architecture, integration adapters, and scalable design. Our solution is 
designed to easily integrate with business data and processes residing in legacy systems and other enterprise data sources. 
By  integrating  “out  of  the  box”  solutions  with  leading  business  applications,  our  platform  allows  clients  to  leverage 
existing data, content, and communication assets.  

Offer  rapid  time  to  value  through  flexible  deployment  options. Our  solution  can  be  deployed  in  a  number  of  ways, 
including in the cloud, on-site, or as a managed service. In addition, we offer eGain Solution-as-a-Service™, or SLaaS™, 
a package that enables clients to use our solution without a long-term contract or upfront implementation fee. Moreover, 
our clients have the flexibility to move from one deployment model to another when they need a change.

Cloud Operations  

We serve our customers and end users from several secure data centers worldwide. Physical security features at these facilities 
include  24x7  on-site  security,  three  physical  barriers  and  multiple  access  controls.  The  systems  at  these  facilities  are  protected  by 
firewalls and encryption technology we utilize. Operational redundancy features include redundant power, on-site backup generators, 
multiple carrier entrance facilities, and robust environmental controls and monitoring.  

We  employ  a  wide  range  of  security  features,  including  two-factor  authentication,  data  encryption,  encoded  session 
identifications and passwords. We contract with specialized security vendors to conduct regular security audits of our infrastructure. 
We also employ outside vendors for 24x7 managed network security and monitoring. Every page we serve is delivered encrypted to 
the end user via a Secure Socket Layer, or SSL, transaction. We also use encryption in our storage systems and backup technology.  

We  continuously  monitor  the  performance  of  our  application  suite  using  a  variety  of  automated  tools.  We  designed  our 
infrastructure  with  built-in  redundancy  for  all  key  components.  Our  network  includes  redundant  firewalls,  switches  and  intrusion 
detection systems, and incorporates failover backup for maximum uptime. We load balance at each tier in the network infrastructure. 
We  also  designed  our  application  server  clusters  so  that  servers  can  fail  without  interrupting  the  user  experience,  and  our  database 
servers are clustered for failover. We regularly back up and store customer data both on and off-site in secure locations to minimize 
the risk of data loss at any facility.  

Customers  

We serve a worldwide customer base across a wide variety of industry sectors, including retail, telecommunications, financial 
services,  insurance, outsourced  services,  technology, utilities, government,  manufacturing  and consumer  electronics.  Our product  is 
sold  primarily  to  large  enterprises  (over  $500  million  in  annual  revenue).  For  the  fiscal  year  ended  June 30,  2014,  international 
revenue accounted for 45% and domestic revenue for 55% of total revenue, compared to 40% and 60% respectively for fiscal year 
2013 and 44% and 56% respectively for fiscal year 2012.  

There  were  two  different  customers  that  accounted  for  16%  and  10%  of  total  revenue  in  fiscal  year  2014.  Two  different 

customers accounted for 18% and 10% of total revenue in fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively.  

Competition  

We compete with other application software vendors including Avaya, Inc., Genesys Telecommunications,  Live Person, Inc., 
and  Moxie  Software,  Inc.  In  addition,  we  face  actual  or  potential  competition  from  larger  software  companies  such  as  Microsoft 
Corporation, Oracle Corporation, and Salesforce.com, Inc. that may attempt to sell customer engagement software to their installed 
base. We also compete with internally developed applications within large enterprises. Finally, we face, or expect to face, competition 
from  software  vendors  who  may  develop  toolsets  and  products  that  allow  customers  to  build  new  applications  that  run  on  the 
customers’ infrastructure or as hosted services.  

We believe the principal competitive factors in our market include the following:

Sales and Marketing  
Sales Strategy  

Our sales strategy is to pursue targeted accounts, mostly B2C enterprises, through a combination of our direct sales force and 
partners. We target our sales efforts at enterprise companies. Our North American direct sales organization is based at our corporate 
headquarters in Sunnyvale, California, with field sales presence throughout the United States. Internationally, we have field offices in 
France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, India, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.  

The direct sales force is organized into teams that include sales representatives and sales consultants. Our direct sales force is 

made up of two components, field sales and inside sales representatives. It is complemented by lead generation representatives.  

We also complement our direct sales force with reseller and sales alliances. We believe we are able to leverage additional sales, 

marketing and deployment capabilities through these alliances.  

Marketing and Partner Strategy  

Our  marketing  strategy  is  to  build  our  brand  around  innovative  and  robust  products  trusted  by  leading  enterprises.  Our 
marketing organization focuses on public relations, analyst relations, marketing communications and demand generation. We employ 
a  wide  range  of  marketing  avenues  to  deliver  our  message,  including  print  and  Internet  advertising,  targeted  electronic  and  postal 
mailing, email newsletters, and a variety of trade shows, seminars, webinars, and interest groups.  

Our  marketing  group  also  produces  sales  tools,  including  product  collateral,  customer  case  studies,  demonstrations, 
presentations, and competitive analyses. In addition, the group performs market analyses and customer reviews to identify and develop 
key partnership opportunities and product capabilities.  

We believe that our partners help extend the breadth and depth of our product offerings, drive market penetration, and augment 
our  professional  service  capabilities.  We  believe  these  relationships  are  important  to  delivering  successful,  integrated  products  and 
services to our customers, and scaling our business. Our partner portal, EcoNet™, enables us to provide comprehensive sales, support 
and services information for channel partners, while enabling them to collaborate with one another through an online forum. Partner 
enablement is a key focus area for our consulting and training teams too.  

As of fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, there were 189 employees engaged in worldwide sales and marketing activities.  

Consulting and Education  

Our  worldwide  professional  services  organization  provides  consulting  and  education  services  designed  to  facilitate  customer 

success and build customer loyalty.  

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

Consulting  Services. Our  consulting  services  group  offers  rapid  implementation  services,  custom  solution  development, 
and systems integration services. Consultants work with customers to understand their specific requirements, analyze their 
business  needs,  and  implement  integrated  solutions.  We  provide  these  services  independently  or  in  partnership  with 
system integrators who have developed consulting expertise on our platform.  

Education  Services. Our  education  services  group  provides  a  comprehensive  set  of  basic  and  customized  training 
programs  to  our  customers  and  partners  in  addition  to  online  tutorial  modules  for  ongoing  refresher  courses.  Training 
programs are offered either in-person at the customer site, or at one of our worldwide training centers.  

8 

 
As of fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, we had 191 professionals providing worldwide services for systems installation, solutions 

development, application management, and education.  

Customer Success  

We offer a comprehensive collection of support services designed to rapidly respond to inquiries. Our technical support services 
are available to customers worldwide under maintenance agreements. Our customer success strategy is to provide dedicated customer 
support  account  managers  for  large  enterprise  customers.  The  customer  success  team  uses  eGain’s  own  software  suite  to  provide 
world-class service to all our customers through support centers located in California, the United Kingdom, and India.  

As of fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, there were 49 employees engaged in worldwide customer support services.  

Research and Development  

The  market  for  our  products  changes  rapidly  and  is  characterized  by  evolving  industry  standards,  swift  changes  in  customer 
requirements, and frequent new product introductions and enhancements. We believe that strong product development capabilities are 
essential  to  our  strategy  of  maintaining  technology  leadership.  This  includes  enhancing  current  technology,  providing  excellent 
quality,  performance,  and  functionality,  as  well  as  developing  additional  applications,  and  maintaining  the  competitiveness  of  our 
product  and  service  offerings.  We  have  invested  significant  time  and  resources  to  set  up  a  comprehensive  software  development 
process  that  involves  several  functional  groups  at  all  levels  within  our  organization  and  is  designed  to  provide  a  framework  for 
defining and addressing the activities required in bringing product concepts and development projects to market successfully.  

In addition, we continuously analyze market and customer requirements and evaluate technology that we believe will enhance 

platform acceptance in the market. As a result of this process, we acquired Exony Limited in August 2014.   

As  of  fiscal  year  ended  June 30,  2014,  there  were  158  employees  engaged  in  worldwide  product  development  activities.  We 
spent approximately $10.0 million on research and development in fiscal year 2014, and $8.4 million and $6.1 million, respectively, in 
fiscal years 2013 and 2012.  

Intellectual Property  

We  regard  our  intellectual  property  as  critical  to  our  success.  We  rely  on  intellectual  property  and  other  laws,  in  addition  to 

confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements, to protect the proprietary aspects of our technology and business.  

We  continually  assess  the  propriety  of  seeking  intellectual  property  protection  for  those  aspects  of  our  technology  that  we 
believe constitute innovations providing significant competitive advantages. Future applications may or may not receive the issuance 
of valid patents or registered trademarks.  

We routinely require our employees, customers, and potential business partners to enter into confidentiality and nondisclosure 
agreements  before  we  will  disclose  any  sensitive  aspects  of  our  products,  technology,  or  business  plans.  In  addition,  we  require 
employees to agree to surrender to us any proprietary information, inventions or other intellectual property they generate or come to 
possess  while  employed  by  us.  Despite  our  efforts  to  protect  our  proprietary  rights  through  confidentiality  and  license  agreements, 
unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain and use our products or technology. These precautions may not prevent 
misappropriation or infringement of our intellectual property. In addition, some of our license agreements with certain customers and 
partners require us to place the source code for our products into escrow. These agreements typically provide that some party will have 
a limited, non-exclusive right to access and use this code as authorized by the license agreement if there is a bankruptcy proceeding 
instituted by or against us, or if we materially breach a contractual commitment to provide support and maintenance to the party.  

Employees  

As  of  fiscal  year  ended  June 30,  2014,  we  had  681  full-time  employees,  of  which  158  were  in  product  development,  274  in 

services and support, 189 in sales and marketing, and 60 in finance and administration.  

None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. While we believe our relations with our employees are 
good,  our  future  performance  depends  largely  upon  the  continued  service  of  our  key  technical,  sales  and  marketing,  and  senior 
management personnel, none of whom are bound by employment agreements requiring service for a defined period of time.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS  

The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Other events that we do not currently anticipate or 

that we currently deem immaterial also may affect our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.  

Our business is influenced by a range of factors that are beyond our control and that we have no comparative advantage in 
forecasting. These include:  

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

general economic and business conditions;  

currency exchange rate fluctuations;  

the overall demand for enterprise software and services;  

customer acceptance of cloud-based solutions;  

governmental budgetary constraints or shifts in government spending priorities; and  

general political developments.  

The global economic climate continues to influence our business such as, a general tightening in the credit markets, lower levels 
of liquidity, increases in the rates of default and bankruptcy, and extreme volatility in credit, equity and fixed income markets. These 
macroeconomic developments negatively affected, and could continue to negatively affect, our business, operating results or financial 
condition which, in turn, could adversely affect our stock price. A general weakening of, and related declining corporate confidence 
in, the global economy or the curtailment in government or corporate spending could cause current or potential customers to reduce 
their  technology  budgets  or  be  unable  to  fund  software  or  services  purchases,  which  could  cause  customers  to  delay,  decrease  or 
cancel  purchases  of  our  products  and  services  or  cause  customers  not  to  pay  us  or  to  delay  paying  us  for  previously  purchased 
products and services.  

Our hybrid revenue model may affect our operating results.  

We  have  a  hybrid  delivery  model  meaning  that  we  offer  our  solutions  on  a  subscription  or  perpetual  license  basis  to  our 
customers.  For  perpetual  license  transactions,  the  license  revenue  amount  is  generally  recognized  in  the  quarter  delivery  and 
acceptance of our software takes place. Whereas, for subscription transactions, the revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the 
contract, which is typically one to two years. As a result, our total revenue may increase or decrease in future quarters as a result of the 
timing and mix of license and subscriptions transactions. This could be exacerbated as more customers select our subscription solution 
over  our  perpetual  licensed  solution;  causing  us  to  increase  the  amount  of  revenue  recognized  ratably  over  the  life  of  the  contract 
therefore resulting in a decrease in our total revenue in the short-term.  

Because we recognize revenue from subscriptions for our service over the term of the subscription, downturns or upturns in 
new business may not be immediately reflected in our operating results.  

We generally recognize subscription revenue from  customers ratably over the terms of their subscription agreements, which are 
typically 12 to 36 months. As a result, most of the revenue we report in each quarter is the result of subscription agreements entered into 
during previous quarters. Consequently, a decline in new or renewed subscriptions in any one quarter may not be reflected in our revenue 
results  for  that  quarter.  Any  such  decline,  however,  will  negatively  affect  our  revenue  in  future  quarters.  Accordingly,  the  effect  of 
significant  downturns  in  sales  and  market  acceptance  of  our  service,  and  potential  changes  in  our  rate  of  renewals  may  not  be  fully 
reflected  in  our  results  of  operations  until  future  periods. Our subscription  model  also  makes  it  difficult  for  us  to rapidly  increase  our 
revenue through additional sales in any period, as revenue from new customers must be recognized over the applicable subscription term.  

We  cannot  accurately  predict  subscription  renewal  or  upgrade  rates  and  the  impact  these  rates  may  have  on  our  future 
revenue and operating results.  

Our  customers  have no  obligation  to  renew  their  subscriptions for our  service  after  the  expiration of  their  initial  subscription 
period, which is typically 12 to 36 months, and in fact, some customers have elected not to renew. In addition, our customers may 
renew  for  fewer  subscriptions,  renew  for  shorter  contract  lengths,  or  renew  for  lower  cost  editions  of  our  service.  We  cannot 
accurately predict renewal rates given our varied customer base of enterprise and small and medium size business customers and the 
number of multiyear subscription contracts. Our renewal rates may decline or fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including 
customer  dissatisfaction  with  our  service,  customers’  spending  levels,  decreases  in  the  number  of  users  at  our  customers,  pricing 
changes and deteriorating general economic conditions. If our customers do not renew their subscriptions for our service or reduce the 
number of paying subscriptions at the time of renewal, our revenue will decline and our business will suffer.  

10 

 
Our  future  success  also  depends  in  part  on  our  ability  to  sell  additional  features  and  services,  more  subscriptions  or  enhanced 
editions of our service to our current customers. This may also require increasingly sophisticated and costly sales efforts that are targeted 
at senior management. Similarly, the rate at which our customers purchase new or enhanced services depends on a number of factors, 
including general economic conditions and that our customers do not react negatively  to any price changes related  to these additional 
features and services. If our efforts to upsell to our customers are not successful and negative reaction occurs, our business may suffer.   

Our lengthy sales cycles and the difficulty in predicting timing of sales or delays may impair our operating results.  

The  long  sales  cycle  for  our  products  may  cause  license  revenue  and  operating  results  to  vary  significantly  from  period  to 
period. The sales cycle for our products can be six months or more and varies substantially from customer to customer. Because we 
sell complex and deeply integrated solutions, it can take many months of customer education to secure sales. Because our potential 
customers may evaluate our products before, if ever, executing definitive agreements, we may incur substantial expenses and spend 
significant  management  effort  in  connection  with  the  potential  customer.  Our  multi-product  offering  and  the  increasingly  complex 
needs  of  our  customers  contribute  to  a  longer  and  unpredictable  sales  cycle.  Consequently,  we  often  face  difficulty  predicting  the 
quarter in which expected sales will actually occur. This contributes to the uncertainty and fluctuations in our future operating results. 
In  particular,  the  corporate  decision-making  and  approval  process  of  our  customers  and  potential  customers  has  become  more 
complicated. This has caused our average sales cycle to further increase and, in some cases, has prevented the closure of sales that we 
believed  were  likely  to  close.  In  addition,  historically  our  license  sales  have  comprised  a  relatively  small  number  of  high  value 
transactions; consequently, we may miss our revenue forecasts and may incur expenses that are not offset by corresponding revenue 
from the delay in even one transaction.  

We may need additional capital, and raising such additional capital may be difficult or impossible and will likely significantly 
dilute existing stockholders.  

We  believe  that  existing  capital  resources  will  enable  us  to  maintain  current  and  planned  operations  for  the  next  12  months. 
However, our working  capital  requirements  in the foreseeable future  are  subject  to  numerous risks  and will  depend on  a variety  of 
factors, in particular, whether we maintain or exceed the level of revenue achieved in fiscal year 2015 and that customers continue to 
pay on a timely basis. We may need to secure additional financing due to unforeseen or unanticipated market conditions. We may try 
to raise additional funds through public or private financings, strategic relationships, or other arrangements. Such financing may be 
difficult  to  obtain  on  terms  acceptable  to  us,  if  at  all.  If  we  succeed  in  raising  additional  funds  through  the  issuance  of  equity  or 
convertible  securities,  then  the  issuance  could  result  in  substantial  dilution  to  existing  stockholders.  If  we  raise  additional  funds 
through the issuance of debt securities or preferred stock, these new securities would have rights, preferences, and privileges senior to 
those of the holders of our common stock. The terms of these securities could impose restrictions on our operations.  

Failure  to  comply  with  covenants  in  our  loan  facility  may  restrict  our  access  to  credit  which  could  negatively  impact  our 
operations  

There are a number of affirmative and negative covenants under the Comerica Credit Facility, with the primary covenants being 
that we are required to maintain a minimum cash balance of seventy percent (70%) of our consolidated cash at Comerica and we must 
maintain  a  liquidity  to  debt  ratio  of  at  least  2.00  to  1.00.  If  we  fail  to  comply  with  our  covenants,  Comerica  can  declare  any 
outstanding amounts immediately due and payable and stop extending credit to us. If our access to credit were restricted in this way, 
our operations would suffer and negatively impact our business. 

Because we depend on a relatively small number of customers for a substantial portion of our revenue, the loss of any of these 
customers or our failure to attract new significant customers could adversely impact our revenue and harm our business  

We  have  in  the  past  and  expect  in  the  future  to  derive  a  substantial  portion  of  our  revenue  from  sales  to  a  relatively  small 
number of customers. The composition of these customers has varied in the past, and we expect that it will continue to vary over time. 
As a result, the loss of any significant customer or a decline in business with any significant customer would materially and adversely 
affect our financial condition and results of operations.  

Our  revenue  and  operating  expenses  are  unpredictable  and  may  fluctuate,  which  may  harm  our  operating  results  and 
financial condition.  

Due  to  the  emerging  nature  of  the  multichannel  contact  center  market  and  other  similar  factors,  our  revenue  and  operating 
results may fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Our revenue could fall short of expectations if we experience delays or cancellations of 
even a small number of orders. It is possible that our operating results in some quarters will be below the expectations of financial 
analysts or investors. In this event, the market price of our common stock is also likely to decline.  

11 

 
A number of factors are likely to cause fluctuations in our operating results, including, but not limited to, the following:  

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

demand for our software and budget and spending decisions by information technology departments of our customers;  

the mix of subscription and perpetual license transactions;  

seasonal trends in technology purchases;  

our ability to attract and retain customers;  

product offerings and pricing of our competitors; and  

litigation relating to our intellectual proprietary rights.  

In addition, we base our expense levels in part on expectations regarding future revenue levels. In the short term, expenses, such 
as employee compensation and rent, are relatively fixed. If revenue for a particular quarter is below expectations, we may be unable to 
reduce our operating expenses proportionately for that quarter. Accordingly, such a revenue shortfall would have a disproportionate 
effect on expected operating results for that quarter. For this reason, period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may also 
not be a good indication of our future performance. 

As  we  acquire  companies  or  technologies,  we  may  not  realize  the  expected  business  benefits,  the  acquisitions  could  prove 
difficult to integrate, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and adversely affect our operations.  

As part of our business strategy, we periodically make investments in, or acquisitions of, complementary businesses, joint 
ventures, services and technologies and intellectual property rights, and we expect that we will continue to make such investments and 
acquisitions in the future. In August 2014, we acquired Exony Ltd.  Acquisitions and investments involve numerous risks, including:

(cid:120)   

the potential failure to achieve the expected benefits of the combination or acquisition; 

difficulties in and the cost of integrating operations, technologies, services and personnel; 

diversion of financial and managerial resources from existing operations; 

risk of entering new markets in which we have little or no experience or where competitors may have stronger market 
positions; 

potential write-offs of acquired assets or investments, and potential financial and credit risks associated with acquired 
customers; 

potential loss of key employees; 

inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset acquisition or investment costs; 

the inability to maintain relationships with customers and partners of the acquired business; 

the difficulty of transitioning the acquired technology onto our existing platforms and maintaining the security standards 
consistent with our other services for such technology; 

potential unknown liabilities associated with the acquired businesses; 

unanticipated expenses related to acquired technology and its integration into existing technology; 

negative impact to our results of operations because of the depreciation and amortization of amounts related to acquired 
intangible assets, fixed assets and deferred compensation, and the loss of acquired deferred revenue and unbilled deferred 
revenue; 

delays in customer purchases due to uncertainty related to any acquisition; 

the need to implement controls, procedures and policies at the acquired company; 

challenges caused by distance, language and cultural differences; 

in the case of foreign acquisitions, the challenges associated with integrating operations across different cultures and 
languages and any currency and regulatory risks associated with specific countries; and 

the tax effects of any such acquisitions.

In addition, if we finance acquisitions by issuing equity or convertible or other debt securities or loans, our existing stockholders 

may be diluted, or we could face constraints related to the terms of repayment obligations related to the incurrence of indebtedness 
which could affect the market price of our common stock. Further, if we fail to properly evaluate and execute acquisitions or 
investments, our business operations and prospects may be seriously harmed. 

We must compete successfully in our market segment.  

The  market for  customer  engagement  software  is  intensely  competitive. Other  than product  innovation  and  existing  customer 
relationships,  there  are  no  substantial  barriers  to  entry  in  this  market,  and  established  or  new  entities  may  enter  this  market  in  the 
future. While  software  internally  developed  by  enterprises  represents  indirect  competition,  we  also  compete  directly  with packaged 
application  software  vendors,  including  Avaya,  Inc.,  Genesys  Telecommunications,  LivePerson,  Inc.,  and  Moxie  Software,  Inc.  In 
addition, we face actual or potential competition from larger software companies such as Microsoft Corporation, Oracle Corporation, 
Salesforce.com, Inc. and similar companies that may attempt to sell customer engagement software to their installed base.  

We believe competition will continue to be fierce as current competitors increase the sophistication of their offerings and as new 
participants enter the market. Many of our current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, larger customer bases, 
broader  brand  recognition,  and  significantly  greater  financial,  marketing  and  other  resources.  With  more  established  and  better-
financed competitors, these companies may be able to undertake more extensive marketing campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing 
policies, and make more attractive offers to businesses to induce them to use their products or services.  

If  we  fail  to  expand  and  improve  our  sales  performance  and  marketing  activities,  we  may  be  unable  to  grow  our  business, 
negatively impacting our operating results and financial condition.  

Expansion and growth of our business is dependent on our ability to expand our sales force and on the ability of our sales force 
to increase sales. If we are not able to effectively develop and maintain awareness of our products in a cost-effective manner, we may 
not  achieve  widespread  acceptance  of  our  existing  and  future  products.  This  may  result  in  a  failure  to  expand  and  attract  new 
customers and enhance relationships with existing customers. This may impede our efforts to improve operations in other areas of the 
Company and may result in declines in the market price of our common stock.  

Due  to  the  complexity  of  our  customer  engagement  hub  platform  and  related  products  and  services,  we  must  utilize  highly 
trained sales personnel to educate prospective customers regarding the use and benefits of our products and services as well as provide 
effective customer support. If we have turnover in our sales and marketing teams, we may not be able to successfully compete with 
those of our competitors.  

Our failure to develop and expand strategic and third party distribution channels would impede our revenue growth.  

Our success and future growth depends in part upon the skills, experience, performance and continued service of our distribution 
partners, including software and hardware vendors and resellers. We engage with distribution partners in a number of ways, including 
assisting us to identify prospective customers, to distribute our products in geographies where we do not have a physical presence and 
to  distribute  our  products  where  they  are  considered  complementary  to  other  third  party  products  distributed  by  the  partner.  We 
believe that our future success depends in part upon our ability to develop and expand strategic, long term and profitable partnerships 
and reseller relationships. If we are unable to do so, or if any existing or future distribution partners fail to successfully market, resell, 
implement  or  support  our  products  for  their  customers,  or  if  distribution  partners  represent  multiple  providers  and  devote  greater 
resources to market, resell, implement and support competing products and services, our future revenue growth could be impeded. Our 
failure to develop and expand relationships with systems integrators could harm our business.  

We sometimes rely on system integrators to recommend our products to their customers and to install and support our products 
for their customers. We likewise depend on broad market acceptance by these system integrators of our product and service offerings. 
Our agreements generally do not prohibit competitive offerings and system integrators may develop market or recommend software 
applications that compete with our products. Moreover, if these firms fail to implement our products successfully for their customers, 
we  may  not  have  the  resources  to  implement  our  products  on  the  schedule  required  by  their  customers.  To  the  extent  we  devote 
resources to these relationships and the partnerships do not proceed as anticipated or provide revenue or other results as anticipated, 
our business may be harmed. Once partnerships are forged, there can be no guarantee that such relationships will be renewed in the 
future or available on acceptable terms. If we lose strategic third party relationships, fail to renew or develop new relationships, or fail 
to fully exploit revenue opportunities within such relationships, our results of operations and future growth may suffer.

Our international operations involve various risks.  

We derived 45% of our revenue from international sales for the fiscal year 2014 compared to 40% for the fiscal year 2013, and 
44% for fiscal year 2012. Including those discussed above, our international sales operations are subject to a number of specific risks, 
such as:

(cid:120) 

(cid:120)

(cid:120) 

general economic conditions in each country or region in which we do or plan to do business;  

foreign currency fluctuations and imposition of exchange controls;  

expenses associated with complying with differing technology standards and language translation issues;  

difficulty and costs in staffing and managing our international operations;  

difficulties in collecting accounts receivable and longer collection periods;  

health or similar issues, such as a pandemic or epidemic;  

various trade restrictions and tax consequences;  

hostilities in various parts of the world; and  

reduced intellectual property protections in some countries.  

As of June 30, 2014, approximately 49% of our workforce was employed in India. Of these employees, 33% are allocated to 
research and development. Although the movement of certain operations internationally was principally motivated by cost cutting, the 
continued  management  of  these  remote  operations  requires  significant  management  attention  and  financial  resources  that  could 
adversely affect our operating performance. In addition, with the significant increase in the numbers of foreign businesses that have 
established  operations  in  India,  the  competition  to  attract  and  retain  employees  there  has  increased  significantly.  As  a  result  of  the 
increased  competition  for  skilled  workers,  we  experienced  increased  compensation  costs  and  expect  these  costs  to  increase  in  the 
future.  Our  reliance  on  our  workforce  in  India  makes  us  particularly  susceptible  to  disruptions  in  the  business  environment  in  that 
region.  In  particular,  sophisticated  telecommunications  links,  high-speed  data  communications  with  other  eGain  offices  and 
customers,  and  overall  consistency  and  stability  of  our  business  infrastructure  are  vital  to  our  day-to-day  operations,  and  any 
impairment of such infrastructure will cause our financial condition and results to suffer. The maintenance of stable political relations 
between the United States, European Union and India are also of great importance to our operations.  

Any of these risks could have a significant impact on our product development, customer support, or professional services. To 
the  extent  the  benefit  of  maintaining  these  operations  abroad  does  not  exceed  the  expense  of  establishing  and  maintaining  such 
activities, our operating results and financial condition will suffer.  

Difficulties in implementing our products could harm our revenue and margins.  

We generally recognize license revenue from a customer sale when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product 
has been delivered, the arrangement does not involve significant customization of the software, the license fee is fixed or determinable 
and  collection  of  the  fee  is  probable.  If  an  arrangement  requires  significant  customization  or  implementation  services  from  us, 
recognition of the associated license and service revenue could be delayed. The timing of the commencement and completion of these 
services  is  subject  to  factors  that  may  be  beyond  our  control,  as  this  process  requires  access  to  the  customer’s  facilities  and 
coordination  with  the  customer’s  personnel  after  delivery  of  the  software.  In  addition,  customers  could  cancel  or  delay  product 
implementations. Implementation typically involves working with sophisticated software, computing and communications systems. If 
we experience difficulties with implementation or do not meet project milestones in a timely manner, we could be obligated to devote 
more  customer  support,  engineering  and  other  resources  to  a  particular  project.  Some  customers  may  also  require  us  to  develop 
customized features or capabilities. If new or existing customers cancel or have difficulty deploying our products or require significant 
amounts of our professional services, support, or customized features, revenue recognition could be cancelled or further delayed and 
our costs could increase, causing increased variability in our operating results.  

Our reserves may be insufficient to cover receivables we are unable to collect.  

We assume a certain level of credit risk with our customers in order to do business. Conditions affecting any of our customers 
could  cause  them  to  become  unable  or  unwilling  to  pay  us  in  a  timely  manner,  or  at  all,  for  products  or  services  we  have  already 
provided  them.  In  the  past,  we  have  experienced  collection  delays  from  certain  customers,  and  we  cannot  predict  whether  we  will 
continue to experience similar or more severe delays in the future. Although we have established reserves to cover losses due to delays 
or inability to pay, there can be no assurance that such reserves will be sufficient to cover our losses. If losses due to delays or inability 
to pay are greater than our reserves, it could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.  

14 

 
We  may  be  subject  to  legal  liability  and/or  negative  publicity  for  the  services  provided  to  consumers  via  our  technology 
platforms.  

Our technology platforms enable representatives of our customers as well as individual service providers to communicate with 
consumers  and  other  persons  seeking  information  or  advice  on  the  Internet.  The  law  relating  to  the  liability  of  online  platform 
providers such as us for the activities of users of their online platforms is often challenged in the U.S. and internationally. We may be 
unable  to  prevent  users  of  our  technology  platforms  from  providing  negligent,  unlawful  or  inappropriate  advice,  information  or 
content  via  our  technology  platforms,  or  from  behaving  in  an  unlawful  manner,  and  we  may  be  subject  to  allegations  of  civil  or 
criminal liability for negligent, fraudulent, unlawful or inappropriate activities carried out by users of our technology platforms.  

Claims  could  be  made  against  online  services  companies  under  both  U.S.  and  foreign  law  such  as  fraud,  defamation,  libel, 
invasion  of  privacy,  negligence,  copyright  or  trademark  infringement,  or  other  theories  based  on  the  nature  and  content  of  the 
materials  disseminated  by  users  of  our  technology  platforms.  In  addition,  domestic  and  foreign  legislation  has  been  proposed  that 
could prohibit or impose liability for the transmission over the Internet of certain types of information. Our defense of any of these 
actions could be costly and involve significant time and attention of our management and other resources.  

The  Digital  Millennium  Copyright  Act,  or  DMCA,  is  intended,  among  other  things,  to  reduce  the  liability  of  online  service 
providers  for  listing  or  linking  to  third  party  web  properties  that  include  materials  that  infringe  copyrights  or  rights  of  others. 
Additionally, portions of The Communications Decency Act, or CDA, are intended to provide statutory protections to online service 
providers who distribute third party content. A safe harbor for copyright infringement is also available under the DMCA to certain 
online  service  providers  that  provide  specific  services,  if  the  providers  take  certain  affirmative  steps  as  set  forth  in  the  DMCA. 
Important questions regarding the safe harbor under the DMCA and the CDA have yet to be litigated, and we cannot guarantee that we 
will meet the safe harbor requirements of the DMCA or of the CDA. If we are not covered by a safe harbor, for any reason, we could 
be exposed to claims, which could be costly and time-consuming to defend.  

Unplanned  system  interruptions  and  capacity  constraints  and  failure  to  effect  efficient  transmission  of  customer 
communications and data over the Internet could harm our business and reputation.  

Our customers have in the past experienced some interruptions with eGain cloud operations. We believe that these interruptions 
will continue to occur from time to time. These interruptions could be due to hardware and operating system failures. As a result, our 
business will suffer if we experience frequent or long system interruptions that result in the unavailability or reduced performance of 
our hosted operations or reduce our ability to provide remote management services. We expect to experience occasional temporary 
capacity  constraints  due  to  sharply  increased  traffic  or  other  Internet-wide  disruptions,  which  may  cause  unanticipated  system 
disruptions, slower response times, impaired quality, and degradation in levels of customer service. If this were to continue to happen, 
our business and reputation could be seriously harmed.  

The growth in the use of the Internet has caused interruptions and delays in accessing the Internet and transmitting data over the 
Internet. Interruptions also occur due to systems burdens brought on by unsolicited bulk email or “Spam,” malicious service attacks 
and hacking into operating systems, viruses, worms and a “Trojan” horse, the proliferation of which is beyond our control and may 
seriously impact our and our customers’ businesses.  

Because we provide Cloud-based software, interruptions or delays in Internet transmissions will harm our customers’ ability to 
receive and respond to online interactions. Therefore, our market depends on ongoing improvements being made to the entire Internet 
infrastructure to alleviate overloading and congestion.  

Our  success  largely depends on  the  efficient  and uninterrupted operation  of our  computer  and  communications hardware  and 
network systems. A significant amount of our computer and communications systems are located in Sunnyvale, California. Due to our 
location, our systems and operations are vulnerable to damage or interruption from fire, earthquake, power loss, telecommunications 
failure and similar events.  

We do maintain a business continuity plan for our customers in the event of an outage. We maintain other co-locations for the 
purposes of disaster recovery as well as maintaining back up’s of our customer’s information. We provide premium disaster recovery 
and standard disaster recovery to our customers.  If a customer opts not to pay for premium disaster recovery, we will only assure that 
their data is available within 72 hours. This delay could cause severe disruptions to our customers’s customers and may result in our 
customers termination of our solutions.  Our premium disaster recovery service provides for an alternative data center and a return to 
operations within one business day.   

15 

 
We have entered into service agreements with some of our customers that require minimum performance standards, including 
standards  regarding  the  availability  and  response  time  of  our  remote  management  services.  If  we  fail  to  meet  these  standards,  our 
customers could terminate their relationships with us, and we could be subject to contractual refunds and service credits to customers. 
Any unplanned interruption of services may harm our ability to attract and retain customers.  

If our security measures are breached and unauthorized access is obtained to a customer’s data or our data or our IT systems, 
our service may be perceived as not being secure, customers may curtail or stop using our service and we may incur significant 
legal and financial exposure and liabilities.  

Our service involves the storage and transmission of customers’ proprietary information, and security breaches could expose us 
to a risk of loss of this information, litigation and possible liability. These security measures may be breached as a result of third-party 
action,  including  intentional  misconduct  by  computer  hackers,  employee  error,  malfeasance  or  otherwise  and  result  in  someone 
obtaining unauthorized access to our customers’ data or our data, including our intellectual property and other confidential business 
information, or our IT systems. Additionally, third parties may attempt to fraudulently induce employees or customers into disclosing 
sensitive information such as user names, passwords or other information in order to gain access to our customers’ data or our data or 
IT systems. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, or to sabotage systems, change frequently and generally are 
not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative 
measures.  In  addition,  our  customers  may  authorize  third  party  access  to  their  customer  data  located  in  our  cloud  environment. 
Because we do not control the transmissions between customer authorized third parties, or the processing of such data by customer 
authorized  third  parties,  we  cannot  ensure  the  integrity  or  security  of  such  transmissions  or  processing.  Any  security  breach  could 
result  in  a  loss  of  confidence  in  the  security  of  our  service,  damage  our  reputation,  negatively  impact  our  future  sales,  disrupt  our 
business and lead to legal liability. 

The terms we agree to in our Service Level Agreements or other contracts may result in increased costs or liabilities, which 
would in turn affect our results of operations.  

Our  Service  Level  Agreement  (SLA)  includes  indemnification  provisions  and  provides  for  service  credits  for  system 
unavailability, and loss, damage or costs resulting from use of our system. If we were required to provide any of these in a material 
way, our results of operations would suffer.  

We have been and may in the future be sued by third parties for various claims including alleged infringement of proprietary 
rights.  

We are involved in various legal matters arising from the normal course of business activities. These may include claims, suits, 
and  other  proceedings  involving  alleged  infringement  of  third-party  patents  and  other  intellectual  property  rights,  and  commercial, 
labor and employment, and other matters.  

The software and Internet industries are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents, trademarks and copyrights and 
by frequent litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. We have received in the past 
and  may  receive  in  the  future  communications  from  third  parties  claiming  that  we  or  our  customers  have  infringed  the  intellectual 
property  rights  of  others.  In  addition  we  have  been,  and  may  in  the  future  be,  sued  by  third  parties  for  alleged  infringement  of  their 
claimed proprietary rights. Our technologies and those of our customers may be subject to injunction if they are found to infringe the 
rights of a third party or we may be required to pay damages, or both. Many of our agreements require us to indemnify our customers for 
third-party intellectual property infringement claims, which would increase the cost to us of an adverse ruling on such a claim.  

The outcome of any litigation, regardless of its merits, is inherently uncertain. Any claims and lawsuits, and the disposition of 
such  claims  and  lawsuits,  could  be  time-consuming  and  expensive  to  resolve,  divert  management  attention  from  executing  our 
business  plan, lead  to  attempts  on  the part of  other parties  to  pursue  similar  claims  and,  in  the  case  of  intellectual  property  claims, 
require us to change our technology, change our business practices or pay monetary damages, or enter into short- or long-term royalty 
or licensing agreements.  

Any adverse determination related to intellectual property claims or other litigation could prevent us from offering our service to 
others, could be material to our financial condition or cash flows, or both, or could otherwise adversely affect our operating results. In 
addition,  depending  on  the  nature  and  timing  of  any  such  dispute,  a  resolution  of  a  legal  matter  could  materially  affect  our  future 
results of operation or cash flows or both.  

16 

 
We  rely  on  trademark,  copyright,  trade  secret  laws,  contractual  restrictions  and  patent  rights  to  protect  our  intellectual 
property and proprietary rights and if these rights are impaired, then our ability to generate revenue will be harmed.  

If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights adequately, our competitors might gain access to our technology, and our 
business  might  be  harmed.  In  addition,  defending  our  intellectual  property  rights  might  entail  significant  expense.  Any  of  our 
trademarks or other intellectual property rights may be challenged by others or invalidated through administrative process or litigation. 
While  we  have  some  U.S.  patents  and  pending  U.S.  patent  applications,  we  may  be  unable  to  obtain  patent  protection  for  the 
technology covered in our patent applications. In addition, our existing patents and any patents issued in the future may not provide us 
with competitive advantages, or may be successfully challenged by third parties. Furthermore, legal standards relating to the validity, 
enforceability  and  scope  of  protection  of  intellectual  property  rights  are  uncertain.  Effective  patent,  trademark,  copyright  and  trade 
secret protection may not be available to us in every country in which our service is available. The laws of some foreign countries may 
not be as protective of intellectual property rights as those in the U.S., and mechanisms for enforcement of intellectual property rights 
may  be  inadequate.  Accordingly,  despite  our  efforts,  we  may  be  unable  to  prevent  third  parties  from  infringing  upon  or 
misappropriating our intellectual property.  

We  might  be  required  to  spend  significant  resources  to  monitor  and  protect  our  intellectual  property  rights.  We  may  initiate 
claims or litigation against third parties for infringement of our proprietary rights or to establish the validity of our proprietary rights. 
Any litigation, whether or not it is resolved in our favor, could result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of our technical 
and management personnel.  

Our failure or inability to develop non-infringing technology or license the proprietary rights on a timely basis would harm 
our business.  

Our products may infringe issued patents that may relate to our products because patent applications in the United States are not 
publicly  disclosed  until  the  patent  is  issued,  applications  may  have  been  filed  which  relate  to  our  software  products.  We  may  be 
subject  to  legal  proceedings  and  claims  from  time  to  time  in  the  ordinary  course  of  our  business,  including  claims  of  alleged 
infringement  of  the  patents  and  other  intellectual  property  rights  of  third  parties.  Intellectual  property  litigation  is  expensive,  time 
consuming, and could divert management’s attention away from running our business. This litigation could also require us to develop 
non-infringing  technology or  enter into royalty  or  license  agreements.  These royalty  or  license  agreements,  if required,  may  not be 
available on acceptable terms, if at all, in the event of a successful claim of infringement.  

Unknown  software  defects  could  disrupt  our  products  and  services  and  problems  arising  from  our  vendors’  products  or 
services could disrupt operations, which could harm our business and reputation.  

Our  product  and  service  offerings  depend  on  complex  software,  both  internally  developed  and  licensed  from  third  parties. 
Complex  software  often  contains  defects  or  errors  in  translation  or  integration,  particularly  when  first  introduced  or  when  new 
versions  are  released  or  localized  for  international  markets.  We  may  not  discover  software  defects  that  affect  our  new  or  current 
services or enhancements until after they are deployed. It is possible that, despite testing by us, defects may occur in the software and 
we can give no assurance that our products and services will not experience such defects in the future. Furthermore, our customers 
generally  use  our  products  together  with  products  from  other  companies.  As  a  result,  when  problems  occur  in  the  integration  or 
network,  it  may  be  difficult  to  identify  the  source  of  the  problem.  Even  when  our  products  do  not  cause  these  problems,  these 
problems may cause us to incur significant warranty and repair costs, divert the attention of our engineering personnel from product 
development  efforts  and  cause  significant  customer  relations  problems.  These  defects  or  problems  could  result  in  damage  to  our 
reputation, lost sales, product liability claims, delays in or loss of market acceptance of our products, product returns and unexpected 
expenses, and diversion of resources to remedy errors.  

Our stock price has demonstrated volatility and continued market conditions may cause declines or fluctuations.  

The price at which our common stock trades has been and will likely continue to be highly volatile and show wide fluctuations 

due to factors such as the following:  

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

concerns related to liquidity of our stock;  

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results, our ability to meet announced or anticipated profitability goals 
and changes in or failure to meet securities analysts’ expectations;  

announcements of technological innovations and/or the introduction of new services by us or our competitors;  

developments with respect to intellectual property rights and litigation, regulatory scrutiny and new legislation;  

17 

 
(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

conditions and trends in the Internet and other technology industries; and  

general market and economic conditions.  

Furthermore,  the  stock  market  has  recently  and  in  the  past  experienced  significant  price  and  volume  fluctuations  that  have 
affected  the  market  prices  for  the  common  stock  of  technology  companies,  regardless  of  the  specific  operating  performance  of  the 
affected company. These broad market fluctuations may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.  

Our insiders who are significant stockholders may control the election of our board and may have interests that conflict with 
those of other stockholders.  

Our directors and executive officers, together with their affiliates and members of their immediate families, beneficially owned, 
in  the  aggregate,  approximately  41%  of  our  outstanding  capital  stock  as  of  our  record  date,  September 9,  2014.  As  a  result,  acting 
together, this group has the ability to exercise significant control over most matters requiring our stockholders’ approval, including the 
election and removal of directors and significant corporate transactions.  

If we are unable to hire and retain key personnel, our business and results of operations would be negatively affected.  

Our success will also depend in large part on the skills, experience and performance of our senior management, engineering, 
sales, marketing and other key personnel. The loss of the services of any of our senior management or other key personnel, including 
our  Chief  Executive  Officer  and  co-founder,  Ashutosh  Roy,  could  harm  our  business.  Additionally,  an  increase  in  attrition  in  the 
Indian  workforce  on  which  we  rely  for  research  and  development  would  have  significant  negative  effects  on  us  and  our  results  of 
operations. If we cannot hire and retain qualified personnel, our ability to expand our business would be impaired and our results of 
operations would suffer.  

Privacy concerns and laws, evolving regulation of cloud computing, cross-border data transfer restrictions and other domestic 
or foreign regulations may limit the use and adoption of our solutions and adversely affect our business.  

Regulation related to the provision of services on the Internet is increasing, as federal, state and foreign governments continue to 
adopt  new  laws  and regulations  addressing data  privacy  and  the collection,  processing,  storage  and use  of personal information.  In 
some  cases  foreign  data  privacy  laws  and  regulations,  such  as  the  European  Union’s  Data  Protection  Directive,  and  the  country-
specific regulations that implement that directive, also govern the processing of personal information. Further, laws are increasingly 
aimed at the use of personal information for marketing purposes, such as the European Union’s e-Privacy Directive, and the country-
specific  regulations  that  implement  that  directive.  Such  laws  and  regulations  are  subject  to  differing  interpretations  and  may  be 
inconsistent among jurisdictions. These and other requirements could reduce demand for our solutions or restrict our ability to store 
and process data or, in some cases, impact our ability to offer our services and solutions in certain locations.  

In  addition  to  government  activity,  privacy  advocacy  and  other  industry  groups  have  established  or  may  establish  new  self-
regulatory  standards  that  may  place  additional  burdens  on  us.  Our  customers  expect  us  to  meet  voluntary  certification  or  other 
standards established by third parties, such as TRUSTe. If we are unable to maintain these certifications or meet these standards, it 
could adversely affect our ability to provide our solutions to certain customers and could harm our business.  

The costs of compliance with and other burdens imposed by laws, regulations and standards may limit the use and adoption of 

our service and reduce overall demand for it, or lead to significant fines, penalties or liabilities for any noncompliance.  

Furthermore,  concerns  regarding  data  privacy  may  cause  our  customers’  customers  to  resist  providing  the  data  necessary  to 
allow our customers to use our service effectively. Even the perception that the privacy of personal information is not satisfactorily 
protected  or  does  not  meet  regulatory  requirements  could  inhibit  sales  of  our  products  or  services,  and  could  limit  adoption  of  our 
subscription solution.  

18 

 
Industry-specific regulation is evolving and unfavorable industry-specific laws, regulations or interpretive positions could 
harm our business.  

Our  customers  and  potential  customers  do  business  in  a  variety  of  industries,  including  financial  services,  the  public  sector, 
healthcare  and  telecommunications.  Regulators  in  certain  industries  have  adopted  and  may  in  the  future  adopt  regulations  or 
interpretive positions regarding the use of cloud computing and other outsourced services. The costs of compliance with, and other 
burdens  imposed  by,  industry-specific  laws,  regulations  and  interpretive  positions  may  limit  customers’  use  and  adoption  of  our 
services and reduce overall demand for our services. For example, some financial services regulators have imposed guidelines for use 
of cloud computing services that mandate specific controls or require financial services enterprises to obtain regulatory approval prior 
to outsourcing certain functions. If we are unable to comply with these guidelines or controls, or if our customers are unable to obtain 
regulatory approval to use our service where required, our business may be harmed. In addition, an inability to satisfy the standards of 
certain voluntary third-party certification bodies that our customers may expect, such as an attestation of compliance with the Payment 
Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standards, may have an adverse impact on our business. If in the future we are unable to achieve or 
maintain these industry-specific certifications or other requirements or standards relevant to our customers, it may harm our business.  

In some cases, industry-specific laws, regulations or interpretive positions may also apply directly to us as a service provider. 

Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with such requirements could have an adverse impact on our business. 

We may need to license third-party technologies and may be unable to do so on commercially reasonable terms.  

To the extent we need to license third-party technologies, we may be unable to do so on commercially reasonable terms or at all. 
In  addition,  we  may  fail  to  successfully  integrate  any  licensed  technology  into  our  products  or  services.  Third-party  licenses  may 
expose us to increased risks, including risks associated with the integration of new technology, the diversion of resources from the 
development  of  our  own  proprietary  technology,  and  our  inability  to  generate  revenue  from  new  technology  sufficient  to  offset 
associated  acquisition  and  maintenance  costs.  Our  inability  to  obtain  and  successfully  integrate  any  of  these  licenses  could  delay 
product and service development until equivalent technology can be identified, licensed and integrated. This in turn would harm our 
business and operating results.  

Changes to current accounting policies could have a significant effect on our reported financial results or the way in which we 
conduct our business.  

Generally  accepted  accounting  principles  and  the  related  accounting  pronouncements,  implementation  guidelines  and 
interpretations for some of our significant accounting policies are highly complex and require subjective judgments and assumptions. 
Some  of  our  more  significant  accounting  policies  that  could  be  affected  by  changes  in  the  accounting  rules  and  the  related 
implementation guidelines and interpretations include:  

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

recognition of revenue;  

contingencies and litigation; and  

accounting for income taxes.  

Changes  in  these  or  other  rules,  or  scrutiny  of  our  current  accounting  practices,  or  a  determination  that  our  judgments  or 
assumptions in the application of these accounting principles were incorrect, could have a significant adverse effect on our reported 
operating results or the way in which we conduct our business.  

We depend on broad market acceptance of our applications and of our business model.  

We depend on the widespread acceptance and use of our applications as an effective solution for businesses seeking to manage 
high volumes of customer interactions across multiple channels, including Web, phone, email, print and in-person. While we believe 
the  potential  to  be  very  large,  we  cannot  accurately  estimate  the  size  or  growth  rate  of  the  potential  market  for  such  product  and 
service offerings generally, and we do not know whether our products and services in particular will achieve broad market acceptance. 
The  market  for  customer  engagement  software  is  rapidly  evolving,  and  concerns  over  the  security  and  reliability  of  online 
transactions, the privacy of users and quality of service or other issues may inhibit the growth of the Internet and commercial online 
services.  If  the  market  for  our  applications  fails  to  grow  or  grows  more  slowly  than  we  currently  anticipate,  our  business  will  be 
seriously harmed.  

19 

 
Furthermore, our business model is premised on business assumptions that are still evolving. Our business model assumes that 
both  customers  and  companies  will  increasingly  elect  to  communicate  via  multiple  channels,  as  well  as  demand  integration  of  the 
online channels into the traditional telephone-based call center. Our business model also assumes that many companies recognize the 
benefits  of  a  hosted delivery  model  and  will  seek  to have their  customer  engagement  software  applications hosted by  us.  If  any of 
these assumptions is incorrect or if customers and companies do not adopt digital technology in a timely manner, our business will be 
seriously harmed and our stock price will decline.  

We  may  be  unable  to  respond  to  the  rapid  technological  change  and  changing  customer  preferences  in  the  online  sales, 
marketing, customer service, and/or online consumer services industries and this may harm our business.  

If we are unable, for technological, legal, financial or other reasons, to adapt in a timely manner to changing market conditions 
in  the  online  sales,  marketing,  customer  service  and/or  e-commerce  industry  or  our  customers’  or  Internet  users’  requirements  or 
preferences, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected. Business on the 
Internet  is  characterized  by  rapid  technological  change.  In  addition,  the  market  for  online  sales,  marketing,  customer  service  and 
expert advice solutions is relatively new. Sudden changes in customer and Internet user requirements and preferences, frequent new 
product  and  service  introductions  embodying  new  technologies,  such  as  broadband  communications,  and  the  emergence  of  new 
industry standards and practices such as but not limited to security standards could render the LivePerson services and our proprietary 
technology  and  systems  obsolete.  The  rapid  evolution  of  these  products  and  services  will  require  that  we  continually  improve  the 
performance, features and reliability of our services. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to:  

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

enhance the features and performance of our services;  

develop and offer new services that are valuable to companies doing business online as well as Internet users; and  

respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and practices in a cost-effective and timely manner.  

If  any  of  our  new  services,  including  upgrades  to  our  current  services,  do  not  meet  our  customers’  or  Internet  users’ 
expectations, our business may be harmed. Updating our technology may require significant additional capital expenditures and could 
materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.  

If  new  services  require  us  to  grow  rapidly,  this  could  place  a  significant  strain  on  our  managerial,  operational,  technical  and 
financial  resources.  In  order  to  manage  our  growth,  we  could  be  required  to  implement  new  or  upgraded  operating  and  financial 
systems, procedures and controls. Our failure to expand our operations in an efficient manner could cause our expenses to grow, our 
revenue to decline or grow more slowly than expected and could otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, results of 
operations and financial condition  

We may engage in future acquisitions or investments that could dilute our existing stockholders, cause us to incur significant 
expenses or harm our business.  

We  may  review  acquisition  or  investment  prospects  that  we  believe  may  complement  our  current  business  or  enhance  our 
technological  capabilities.  Integrating  any newly  acquired  businesses or  their  technologies or  products  may  be  expensive  and  time-
consuming, and may not result in benefits to our business. To finance any acquisitions, it may be necessary for us to raise additional 
funds through public or private financings. Additional funds may not be available on terms that are favorable to us, if at all, and, in the 
case  of  equity  financings,  may  result  in  dilution  to  our  existing  stockholders.  We  may  not  be  able  to  operate  acquired  businesses 
profitably. If we are unable to integrate newly acquired entities or technologies effectively, our operating results could suffer. Future 
acquisitions by us could also result in large and immediate write-offs, incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities, or amortization of 
expenses related to goodwill and other intangibles, any of which could harm our operating results.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS  

On  May 20,  2013,  we  filed  suit  against  Pragmatus  Telecom,  LLC  (“Pragmatus”)  in  the  United  States  District  of  Delaware 
seeking a declaratory judgment that our products and services do not infringe directly or indirectly three patents purportedly owned by 
Pragmatus and that the claims of the Pragmatus patents are invalid. Pragmatus previously asserted these patents against certain of our 
customers. Discovery continues and the matter is currently pending.  

On May 17, 2013, we filed suit against Lodsys Group, LLC (“Lodsys”) in the United States District Court for the Eastern 
District of Texas seeking a declaratory judgment that our products and services do not infringe directly or indirectly two patents 
purportedly owned by Lodsys and that the claims of the Lodsys patents are invalid. Lodsys previously asserted these patents against 
certain of our customers. The matter was settled on December 18, 2013. We entered into a settlement agreement which among other 
items provides a license to the Lodsys patents.  

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various legal proceedings and claims related to alleged infringement of 
third-party patents and other intellectual property rights, commercial, corporate and securities, labor and employment, wage and hour, 
and other claims. We have been, and may in the future be, put on notice and/or sued by third parties for alleged infringement of their 
proprietary rights, including patent infringement.  

We evaluate all claims and lawsuits with respect to their potential merits, our potential defenses and counterclaims, settlement or 
litigation potential and the expected effect on us. Our technologies may be subject to injunction if they are found to infringe the rights 
of a third party. In addition, our agreements require us to indemnify our customers for third-party intellectual property infringement 
claims, which could increase the cost to us of an adverse ruling on such a claim.

2000 Non-Management Stock Option Plan  

In July 2000, our board of directors adopted the 2000 Non-Management Stock Option Plan, which provides for the grant of non-
statutory stock options and stock purchase rights to employees of eGain. A total of 200,000 shares of common stock were reserved for 
issuance  under  the  2000  Non-Management  Stock  Option  Plan.  This  plan  expired  in  July  2010  and  there  are  no  further  options 
available to grant under the 2000 Plan.  

2005 Management Stock Option Plan  

In May 2005, our board of directors adopted the 2005 Management Stock Option Plan, or the 2005 Management Plan, pursuant 
to  which  the  Compensation  Committee  may  grant  non-qualified  stock  options  to  purchase  up  to  962,400  shares  of  eGain  common 
stock,  at  an  exercise  price  of  not  less  than  100%  of  the  fair  market  value  of  such  common  stock,  to  directors,  officers  and  key 
employees  of  the  Company  and  its  subsidiaries.  In  both  November  2007  and  September  2011,  our  board  of  directors  approved  an 
increase  of  500,000  shares  for  issuance  under  the  2005  Management  Plan.  Options  granted  under  the  2005  Management  Plan  are 
subject  to vesting  as determined by  the  Compensation  Committee.  The options  are  exercisable  for  up  to  ten years from  the  date  of 
grant.  

(e) Issuer Repurchases of Equity Securities  

On  September 14,  2009,  we  announced  that  our  board  of  directors  approved  a  repurchase  program  under  which  we  may 
purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of our common stock. The duration of the repurchase program is open-ended. Under the program, we 
purchase shares of common stock from time to time through the open market and privately negotiated transactions at prices deemed 
appropriate by management. The repurchase is funded by cash on hand. There were no shares repurchased during fiscal years 2014 
and 2013.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT’S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS  OF  FINANCIAL  CONDITION  AND  RESULTS  OF 

OPERATIONS  

The  following  discussion  of  eGain’s  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations  should  be  read  together  with  the 
consolidated financial statements and related notes in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This discussion may contain forward-
looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties may cause 
actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.  

Overview  

eGain  was  incorporated  in  Delaware  in  September  1997.  We  are  a  leading  provider  of  cloud-based  and  on-site  customer 
engagement solutions. For over a decade, our solutions have helped improve customer experience, grow sales, and optimize service 
processes  across  the  web,  social,  and  phone  channels.  Hundreds  of  global  enterprises  rely  on  us  to  transform  fragmented  sales 
engagement and customer service operations into unified customer engagement hubs.  

In fiscal year 2014, we recorded annual revenue of $70.3 million and loss from operations of $4.1 million, compared to annual 
revenue of $58.9 million and income from operations of $1.2 million in fiscal year 2013. The year-over-year increase in total revenue 
was primarily driven by the 36% increase in subscription revenue  as our business has shifted more toward a cloud delivery model. 
Subscription  and  support  revenue  was  $40.5  million  in  fiscal  year  2014,  an  increase  of  25%  from  fiscal  year  2013.  Professional 
services revenue was $15.0 million in fiscal year 2014, an increase of 9% from fiscal year 2013. Cash used in operations was $4.7  
million for fiscal year 2014, compared to cash provided by operations of $10.0 million for fiscal year 2013.  

Based upon the strong increase in the demand for our products and services we continued to increase our investment in sales and 
marketing and expand our distribution capability during fiscal year 2014. If the demand continues for our products and services, we 
intend to continue to increase our sales and marketing investments and the expansion of distribution capability in fiscal year 2015. In 
addition, we intend to make further investments in product development and technology to enhance our current products and services, 
develop new products and services and further advance our solution offerings. We believe that existing capital resources will enable us 
to  maintain  current  and  planned  operations  for  the  next  12  months.  Due  to  fluctuations  in  our  business,  we  believe  that  period-to-
period comparisons of our revenue and operating results may not be meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future 
performance, but we anticipate an increase in revenue in fiscal year 2015.  

Unbilled Deferred Revenue  

Unbilled  deferred  revenue  represents  business  that  is  contracted  but  not  yet  invoiced  or  collected  and  off–balance-sheet  and, 
accordingly, is not recorded in deferred revenue. As such, the deferred revenue balance on our consolidated balance sheet does not 
represent  the  total  contract  value  of  annual  or  multi-year,  non-cancelable  subscription  agreements.  As  of  June 30,  2014,  unbilled 
deferred revenue decreased to $22.6 million, down from approximately $24.8 million as of June 30, 2013.  

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates  

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses our consolidated financial 
statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 
The  preparation  of  these  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported 
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the 
reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and 
judgments,  including  those  related  to  revenue  recognition,  allowance  for  doubtful  accounts,  goodwill,  deferred  tax  valuation 
allowance and accrued liabilities, long-lived assets and stock-based compensation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on 
historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form 
the  basis  for  making  judgments  about  the  carrying  values  of  assets  and  liabilities  that  are  not  readily  apparent  from  other  sources. 
Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  

Revenue Recognition  

We enter into arrangements to deliver multiple products or services (multiple-elements). We apply software revenue recognition 
rules and multiple-elements arrangement revenue guidance. Significant management judgments and estimates are made and used to 
determine the revenue recognized in any accounting period. Material differences may result in changes to the amount and timing of 
our  revenue  for  any  period  if  different  conditions  were  to  prevail.  We  present  revenue  net  of  taxes  collected  from  customers  and 
remitted to governmental authorities.

We derive revenue from three sources:  

(i)  Subscription  and  support  fees  primarily  consist  of  cloud  revenue  from  customers  accessing  our  enterprise  cloud  computing 
services, term license revenue, and maintenance and support revenue;  
(ii) License fees primarily consist of perpetual software license revenue;  
(iii) Professional services primarily consist of consulting, implementation services and training.  

Revenues are recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

(cid:120) 

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists: Evidence of an arrangement consists of a written contract signed by both 
the customer and management prior to the end of the period. We use signed software license, services agreements and 
order  forms  as  evidence  of  an  arrangement  for  sales  of  software,  cloud,  maintenance  and  support.  We  use  a  signed 
statement of work as evidence of arrangement for professional services.  

Delivery or performance has occurred: Software is delivered to customers electronically or on a CD-ROM, and license 
files  are  delivered  electronically.  Delivery  is  considered  to have  occurred  when  we  provide  the  customer  access  to  the 
software along with login credentials.  

Fees are fixed or determinable: We assess whether the fee is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated 
with  the  transaction.  Arrangements  where  a  significant  portion  of  the  fee  is  due  beyond  90  days  from  delivery  are 
generally not considered to be fixed or determinable.  

Collectibility is probable: We assess collectibility based on a number of factors, including the customer’s past payment 
history  and  its  current  creditworthiness.  Payment  terms  generally  range  from  30  to  90  days  from  invoice  date.  If  we 
determine that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, we defer the revenue and recognize it at the time collection 
becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash payment.  

We  apply  the  provisions  of  Accounting  Standards  Codification,  or  ASC,  985-605,  Software  Revenue  Recognition,  to  all 
transactions involving the licensing of software products. In the event of a multiple element arrangement for a license transaction, we 
evaluate  the  transaction  as  if  each  element  represents  a  separate  unit  of  accounting  taking  into  account  all  factors  following  the 
accounting  standards.  We  apply  ASC  605,  Revenue  Recognition,  for  cloud  transactions  to  determine  the  accounting  treatment  for 
multiple elements. We also apply ASC 605-35 for fixed fee arrangements in which we use the percentage of completion method to 
recognize revenue when reliable estimates are available for the costs and efforts necessary to complete the implementation services. 
When such estimates are not available, the completed contract method is utilized. Under the completed contract method, revenue is 
recognized only when a contract is completed or substantially complete.  

When licenses are sold together with system implementation and consulting services, license fees are recognized upon shipment, 
provided that (i) payment of the license fees is not dependent upon the performance of the consulting and implementation services, 
(ii) the services are available from other vendors, (iii) the services qualify for separate accounting as we have sufficient experience in 
providing such services, have the ability to estimate cost of providing such services, and we have vendor specific objective evidence, 
or VSOE, of fair value, and (iv) the services are not essential to the functionality of the software.  

We  enter  into  arrangements  with  multiple-deliverables  that  generally  include  subscription,  maintenance  and  support,  and 
professional  services.  We  evaluate  whether  each  of  the  elements  in  these  arrangements  represents  a  separate  unit  of  accounting,  as 
defined  by  ASC  605,  using  all  applicable  facts  and  circumstances,  including  whether  (i) we  sell  or  could  readily  sell  the  element 
unaccompanied by the other elements, (ii) the element has stand-alone value to the customer, and (iii) there is a general right of return. 
We use VSOE, of fair value for each of those units, when available. For revenue recognition with multiple-deliverable elements, in 
certain limited circumstances when VSOE of fair value does not exist, we apply the  selling price hierarchy, which includes VSOE, 
third-party evidence of selling price, or TPE, and best estimate of selling price, or BESP. We determine the relative selling price for a 
deliverable  based  on  its  VSOE,  if  available,  or  its  BESP,  if  VSOE  is  not  available.  We  determined  that  TPE  is  not  a  practical 
alternative  due  to  differences  in  its  service  offerings  compared  to  other  parties  and  the  availability  of  relevant  third-party  pricing 
information.  

We  determine  BESP  by  considering  our  overall  pricing  objectives  and  market  conditions.  Significant  pricing  practices  taken 
into  consideration  include  our  discounting  practices,  the  size  and  volume  of  our  transactions,  the  customer  demographic,  the 
geographic  area  where  services  are  sold,  price  lists,  its  go-to-market  strategy,  historical  standalone  sales  and  contract  prices.  The 
determination  of  BESP  is  made  through  consultation  with  and  approval  by  our  management,  taking  into  consideration  the  go-to-
market  strategy.  As  our  go-to-market  strategies  evolve,  we  may  modify  its  pricing  practices  in  the  future,  which  could  result  in 
changes in relative selling prices, including both VSOE and BESP.

Subscription and Support Revenue  

Cloud Revenue  

Cloud revenue  consists of  subscription  fees  from  customers accessing our  cloud-based  service offerings. We  recognize  cloud 
revenue ratably over the period of the applicable agreement as services are provided. Cloud agreements typically have an initial term 
of one or two years and automatically renew unless either party cancels the agreement. The majority of the cloud services customers 
purchase a combination of our cloud service and professional services. In some cases, the customer may also acquire a license for our 
software.  

We consider the applicability of ASC 985-605, on a contract-by-contract basis. In cloud-based agreements, where the customer 
does not have the contractual right to take possession of the software, the revenue is recognized on a monthly basis over the term of 
the  contract.  Invoiced  amounts  are  recorded  in  accounts  receivable  and  in  deferred  revenue  or  revenue,  depending  on  whether  the 
revenue  recognition  criteria have  been  met.  We  consider  a  software  element  to  exist  when  we  determine  that  the  customer  has  the 
contractual right to take possession of our software at any time during the cloud period without significant penalty and can feasibly 
run the software on its own hardware or enter into another arrangement with a third party to host the software. Additionally, we have 
established VSOE for the cloud and maintenance and support elements of perpetual license sales, based on the prices charged when 
sold separately and substantive renewal terms. Accordingly, when a software element exists in a cloud services arrangement, license 
revenue for the perpetual software license element is determined using the residual method and is recognized upon delivery. Revenue 
for the cloud and maintenance and support elements is recognized ratably over the contractual time period. Professional services are 
recognized  as  described  below  under  “Professional  Services  Revenue.”  If  VSOE  of  fair  value  cannot  be  established  for  the 
undelivered elements of an agreement, the entire amount of revenue from the arrangement is recognized ratably over the period that 
these elements are delivered.  

Term License Revenue  

Term license revenue includes arrangements where our customers receive license rights to use our software along with bundled 
maintenance and support services for the term of the contract. The majority of our contracts provide customers with the right to use 
one  or  more  products  up  to  a  specific  license  capacity.  Certain  of  our  license  agreements  stipulate  that  customers  can  exceed  pre-
determined  base  capacity  levels,  in  which  case  additional  fees  are  specified  in  the  license  agreement.  Term  license  revenue  is 
recognized ratably over the term of the license contract.  

Maintenance and Support Revenue  

Maintenance and support revenue consists of customers purchasing maintenance and support for our on-premise software. We 
use  VSOE  of  fair  value  for  maintenance  and  support  to  account  for  the  arrangement  using  the  residual  method,  regardless  of  any 
separate prices stated within the contract for each element. Maintenance and support revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the 
maintenance  contract,  which  is  typically  one  year.  Maintenance  and  support  is  renewable  by  the  customer  on  an  annual  basis. 
Maintenance and support rates, including subsequent renewal rates, are typically established based upon a specified percentage of net 
license fees as set forth in the arrangement.  

License Revenue  

License  revenue  consists  of  perpetual  license  rights  sold  to  customers  to  use  our  software  in  conjunction  with  related 
maintenance and support services If an acceptance period is required, revenue is recognized upon the earlier of customer acceptance or 
the expiration of the acceptance period. In software arrangements that include rights to multiple software products and/or services, we 
use  the  residual  method  under  which  revenue  is  allocated  to  the  undelivered  elements  based  on  VSOE  of  the  fair  value  of  such 
undelivered elements. The residual amount of revenue is allocated to the delivered elements and recognized as revenue, assuming all 
other criteria for revenue recognition have been met. Such undelivered elements in these arrangements typically consist of software 
maintenance and support, implementation and consulting services and in some cases cloud services.  

License sales to resellers as a percentage of total revenue were approximately 11%, 6% and 2% in fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 
2012, respectively. Revenue from sales to resellers is generally recognized upon delivery to the reseller dependent on the facts and 
circumstances of the transaction. These include items such as our understanding of the reseller’s plans to sell the software, existence of 
return  provisions,  price  protection  or  other  allowances,  the  reseller’s  financial  status  and  our  past  experience  with  the  reseller. 
Historically sales to resellers have not included any return provisions, price protections or other allowances.  

27 

 
Professional Services Revenue  

Professional services revenue includes system implementation, consulting and training. For license transactions, the majority of 
our consulting and implementation services qualify for separate accounting. We use VSOE of fair value for the services to account for 
the  arrangement  using  the  residual  method,  regardless  of  any  separate  prices  stated  within  the  contract  for  each  element.  Our 
consulting and implementation service contracts are bid either on a fixed-fee basis or on a time-and-materials basis. Substantially all 
of  our  contracts  are  on  a  time-and-materials  basis.  For  time-and-materials  contracts,  where  the  services  are  not  essential  to  the 
functionality,  we  recognize  revenue  as  services  are  performed.  If  the  services  are  essential  to  functionality,  then  both  the  product 
license  revenue  and  the  service  revenue  are  recognized  under  the  percentage  of  completion  method.  For  a  fixed-fee  contract,  we 
recognize revenue based upon the costs and efforts to complete the services in accordance with the percentage of completion method, 
provided we are able to estimate such cost and efforts.  

Under ASC 605-25, in order to account for deliverables in a multiple-deliverable arrangement as separate units of accounting, 
the  deliverables  must  have  standalone  value  upon  delivery.  For  cloud  services,  in  determining  whether  professional  services  have 
standalone value, we consider the following factors for each professional services agreement: availability of the services from other 
vendors, the nature of the professional services, the timing of when the professional services contract was signed in comparison to the 
subscription  service  start  date  and  the  contractual  dependence  of  the  subscription  service  on  the  customer’s  satisfaction  with  the 
professional services work.  

We determined at or around July 1, 2013 that we had established standalone value for consulting and implementation services. 
This was primarily due to the change in our business focus, the growing number of partners we trained and certified to perform these 
deployment  services  and  the  consequential  sale  of  subscription  services  without  bundled  implementation  service.  Revenues  earned 
from  professional  services  related  to  consulting  and  implementation  of  a  majority  of  our  core  subscription  services  are  being 
accounted  for  separately  from  revenues  earned  from  subscription  services  beginning  July  1,  2013  when  the  standalone  value  was 
established for those professional services.  

For  those  contracts  that  have  standalone  value,  we  recognized  the  services  revenue  when  rendered  for  time  and  material 
contracts, when the milestones are achieved and accepted by the customer for fixed price contracts or by percentage of completion 
basis if there is no acceptance criteria.  

For  cloud,  consulting  and  implementation  services  that  do  not  qualify  for  separate  accounting,  we  recognize  the  services 
revenue ratably  over  the estimated  life  of the  customer  cloud  relationship,  once  cloud has gone  live or  system  ready. We  currently 
estimate the life of the customer cloud relationship to be approximately 28 months, based on the average life of all cloud customer 
relationships.  

Training revenue that meets the criteria to be accounted for separately is recognized when training is provided.  

Deferred Revenue  

Deferred  revenue  primarily  consists  of  payments  received  in  advance  of  revenue  recognition  from  cloud,  term  license,  and 
maintenance  and  support  services  and  is recognized  as  the  revenue recognition  criteria  are  met. We generally  invoice  customers in 
annual or quarterly installments. The deferred revenue balance does not represent the total contract value of annual or multi-year, non-
cancelable cloud or maintenance and support agreements. Deferred revenue is influenced by several factors, including seasonality, the 
compounding effects of renewals, invoice duration, invoice timing and new business linearity within the quarter.  

Deferred revenue that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period is recorded as current deferred revenue and 
the remaining portion is recorded as noncurrent. In June 30, 2014, deferred revenue decreased to $13.7 million, compared to $19.7 
million at June 30, 2013.  

Deferred Commissions  

Deferred commissions are the direct and incremental costs directly associated with cloud contracts with customers and consist 

of sales commissions to our direct sales force.  

The commissions are deferred and amortized over the terms of the related customer contracts, which are typically one or two 
years. The commission payments are paid based on contract terms in the month following the quarter in which the commissions are 
earned. The deferred commission amounts are recognized as sales and marketing expense in the consolidated statements of operations 
over the terms of the related customer contracts, in proportion to the recognition of the associated revenue.  

28 

 
Stock-Based Compensation  

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation. Under the fair 
value recognition provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the 
award and is recognized as an expense over the vesting period. Determining the fair value of the stock-based awards at the grant date 
requires  significant  judgment  and  the  use of  estimates,  particularly  surrounding  Black-Scholes  valuation  assumptions  such  as  stock 
price volatility and expected option lives. We determine the appropriate measure of expected volatility by reviewing historic volatility 
in the share price of our common stock, as adjusted for certain events that management deems to be non-recurring and non-indicative 
of future events. We base our estimate of expected life on the historical exercise behavior, cancellations of all past option grants made 
by us during the time period in which our equity shares have been publicly traded, the contractual term, the vesting period and the 
expected remaining term of the option. Based on our historical experience of option pre-vesting cancellations, we have assumed an 
annualized 8% forfeiture rate for our options. We record additional expense if the actual forfeiture rate is lower than we estimated, and 
record a recovery of prior expense if the actual forfeiture is higher than what we estimated.  

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets  

In  accordance  with  ASC  350,  Goodwill  and  Other  Intangible  Assets,  we  review  goodwill  annually  for  impairment  or  sooner 
whenever  events  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  they  may  be  impaired.  These  events  or  circumstances  could  include  a 
significant  change  in  the  business  climate,  legal  factors,  operating  performance  indicators,  competition,  or  sale  or  disposition  of  a 
significant  portion  of  a  reporting  unit.  In  addition,  we  evaluate  purchased  intangible  assets  to  determine  that  all  such  assets  have 
determinable  lives.  We  operate  under  a  single  reporting  unit  and  accordingly,  all  of  our  goodwill  is  associated  with  the  entire 
company. We performed annual impairment reviews for fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012 and found no impairment.  

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts  

We  extend  unsecured  credit  to  customers  on  a  regular  basis.  Our  accounts  receivable  are  derived  from  revenue  earned  from 
customers and are not interest bearing. We also maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potential uncollectible trade 
receivables. We review our trade receivables by aging category to identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability 
issues.  We  exercise  judgment  when  determining  the  adequacy  of  these  reserves  as  we  evaluate  historical  bad  debt  trends,  general 
economic conditions in the U.S. and internationally, and changes in customer financial conditions. If we make different judgments or 
utilize different estimates, then material differences may result in additional reserves for trade receivables, which would be reflected 
by charges in general and administrative expenses for any period presented. We write-off a receivable after all collection efforts have 
been exhausted and the amount is deemed uncollectible.  

Leases  

Lease agreements are evaluated to determine whether they are capital or operating leases in accordance with ASC 840, Leases. 

When any one of the four test criteria in ASC 840 is met, the lease then qualifies as a capital lease.  

Capital  leases  are  capitalized  at  the  lower  of  the  net  present  value  of  the  total  amount  payable  under  the  leasing  agreement 
(excluding finance charges) or the fair market value of the leased asset. Capital lease assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis, 
over  a  period  consistent  with  our  normal  depreciation  policy  for  tangible  fixed  assets,  but  not  exceeding  the  lease  term.  Interest 
charges are expensed over the period of the lease in relation to the carrying value of the capital lease obligation.  

Rent  expense  for  operating  leases,  which  may  include  free  rent  or  fixed  escalation  amounts  in  addition  to  minimum  lease 

payments, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the duration of each lease term.  

Deferred Tax Valuation Allowance  

When we prepare our consolidated financial statements, we estimate our income tax liability for each of the various jurisdictions 
where we conduct business. This requires us to estimate our actual current tax exposure and to assess temporary differences that result 
from  differing  treatment  of  certain  items  for  tax  and  accounting  purposes.  The  net  deferred  tax  assets  are  reduced  by  a  valuation 
allowance if, based upon weighted available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be 
realized. We must make significant judgments to determine our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and 
any  valuation  allowance  to  be  recorded  against  our  net  deferred  tax  assets.  As  of  June 30,  2014,  we  had  a  valuation  allowance  of 
approximately $74.1 million of which approximately $69.2 million was attributable to U.S. and state net operating losses and research 
and development credit carryforwards.  

29 

 
We apply ASC 740, Income Taxes, in determining any uncertain tax positions. The guidance seeks to reduce the diversity in 
practice associated with certain aspects of measurement and recognition in accounting for income taxes and prescribes a recognition 
threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position that an entity takes or 
expects  to  take  in  a  tax  return.  Additionally,  ASC  740  provides  guidance  on  de-recognition,  classification,  interest  and  penalties, 
accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Under ASC 740, an entity may only recognize or continue to recognize tax 
positions that meet a “more likely than not” threshold. In accordance with our accounting policy, we recognize accrued interest and 
penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of “other income and expense, net” in the consolidated statements of 
operations.  

Fair Value of Financial Instruments  

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt, 
including related party debt. We do not have any derivative financial instruments. We believe the reported carrying amounts of these 
financial instruments approximate fair value, based upon their short-term nature and comparable market information available at the 
respective balance sheet dates.

Revenue  

Total revenue, which consists of subscription and support, license and professional services revenue, was $70.3 million, $58.9 

million, and $43.4 million, in fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.  

In  fiscal  year  2014,  total  revenue  increased  19%  or  $11.4  million,  from  the  prior  year.  Our  international  sales  accounted  for 
approximately 45% of total revenue in fiscal year 2014, an increase from 40% of total revenue in fiscal year 2013. The impact of the 
foreign exchange fluctuation between the U.S. dollar, the Euro and British pound in total revenue was $1.3 million in fiscal year 2014 
and was minimal in fiscal year 2013. There were two different customers that accounted for 16% and 10% of total revenue in fiscal 
year 2014. Two different customers accounted for 18% and 10% of total revenue in fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Subscription  and  support  revenue  includes  cloud  and  software  maintenance  and  support  revenue.  Subscription  and  support 
revenue was $40.5 million, $32.3 million, and $23.6 million in fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. This represented an 
increase of 25% or $8.2 million, in fiscal year 2014 compared to fiscal year 2013 and an increase of 37%, or $8.7 million, in fiscal 
year 2013 compared to fiscal year 2012. Subscription and support revenue represented 58%, 55%, and 54% of total revenue for the 
fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  

Cloud  revenue  was  $26.0  million,  $19.1  million  and  $11.2  million  in  fiscal  years  2014,  2013  and  2012,  respectively.  This 
represented  an  increase  of  36%,  or  $7.0  million  in  fiscal  year  2014  compared  to  fiscal  year  2013  and  an  increase  of  70%,  or  $7.9 
million, in fiscal year 2013 compared to fiscal year 2012.  

The increase in fiscal year 2014 was primarily due to the increase in new cloud contracts from prior year enterprise customers 
that are recognized ratably over an average contractual term of 24 months. The impact from the foreign currency fluctuations on cloud 
revenue was an increase of $280,000 in fiscal year 2014.  

The increase in fiscal year 2013 was primarily due to the continued shift from license to our cloud model. The increase in new 
cloud  contracts  with  current  enterprise  customers  included  two  new  cloud  contracts  totaling  approximately  $13.1  million  that  are 
recognized  ratably  over  the  contractual  term.  The  impact  from  the  foreign  currency  fluctuations  on  cloud  revenue  was  minimal  in 
fiscal year 2013.  

Excluding the impact from any further foreign currency fluctuations, we expect cloud revenue to increase in fiscal year 2015 

based upon current renewal rates for existing cloud customers and the projected levels of new cloud agreements.  

Maintenance  and  support  revenue  consists  of  technical  support  and  software  upgrades  and  enhancements.  Maintenance  and 
support  revenue  was  $14.5  million,  $13.2  million  and  $12.4  million  in  fiscal  years  2014,  2013  and  2012,  respectively.  This 
represented an increase of 9% or $1.2 million in fiscal year 2014 compared to fiscal year 2013 and an increase of 7%, or $827,000 in 
fiscal year 2013 compared to fiscal year 2012.  

Excluding the impact from any future foreign currency fluctuation, we expect maintenance and support revenue to increase in 
fiscal year 2015 based upon the current renewal rates for existing maintenance and support customers and the projected levels of new 
license sales.

License revenue was $14.8 million, $12.9 million, and $11.1 million in fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. This 
represents  an  increase  of  15%  or  $1.9  million,  in  fiscal  year  2014  from  fiscal  year  2013,  compared  to  an  increase  of  16%  or  $1.8 
million,  in  fiscal  year  2013  from  fiscal  year  2012.  License  revenue  represented  21%,  22%,  and  26%  of  total  revenue  for  the  fiscal 
years 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

The increase in license revenue is primarily attributable to increased demand from new and existing customers. New license and 
support transactions in fiscal year 2014 included approximately $19.7 million from numerous transactions with an average deal size of 
$170,000. The impact from the foreign currency fluctuations on license revenue was an increase of $290,000 in fiscal year 2014.  

New  license  and  support  transactions  in  fiscal  year  2013  included  approximately  $7.6  million  from  five  transactions  with  an 
average  deal  size  of  $1.5  million  from  new  and  existing  customers.  The  impact  from  the  foreign  currency  fluctuations  on  license 
revenue was minimal in fiscal year 2013.  

Given  the  general  unpredictability  in  the  length  of  current  sales  cycles,  the  mix  between  cloud  and  license  transactions,  the 
uncertainty in the global economy and the volatility of the value of the British pound and Euro in relation to the U.S. dollar, license 
revenue may increase or decrease in future periods, but we anticipate total license revenue to increase in fiscal year 2015.

Professional  services  revenue  was  $15.0  million,  $13.8  million  and  $8.7  million  in  fiscal  years  2014,  2013  and  2012, 
respectively. This represented an increase of 9%, or $1.2 million in fiscal year 2014 compared to fiscal year 2013 and an increase of 
58%, or $5.1 million, in fiscal year 2013 compared to fiscal year 2012.  

The  increase  in  fiscal  year  2014  was  primarily  due  to  the  increase  in  demand  for  our  services  and  increase  in  managed 
customers who migrated from on-premise to the cloud. The impact from the foreign currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and 
the British pound on professional services revenue was an increase of $395,000 in fiscal year 2014.  

The  increase  in  fiscal  year  2013  was  primarily  due  to  the  increase  in  demand  for  our  services  and  increase  in  managed 
customers who migrated from on-premise to the cloud. The impact from the foreign currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and 
the British pound on professional services revenue was an increase of $202,000 in fiscal year 2013.  

Excluding the impact from any future foreign currency fluctuations, we expect professional services revenue to increase in fiscal 

year 2015 based upon our current sales pipeline and current sales trend.

Total cost of revenue was $23.5 million, $18.0 million and $13.4 million in fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This 
represented  an  increase  of  30%, or $5.5  million,  in fiscal  year  2014  compared  to fiscal  year  2013  and  an  increase  of  34%, or $4.6 
million, in fiscal year 2013 compared to fiscal year 2012.  

Total cost of revenue as a percentage of total revenue was 33% for fiscal year 2014 and 31% for fiscal years 2013 and 2012.  

The increase in fiscal year 2014 was primarily due to increases of (i) $4.0 million in personnel and personnel-related expenses 
from the increased headcount and Company-wide compensation increases, (ii) $1.2 million in cloud related expenses, (iii) $343,000 in 
outside consulting expense, and (iv) international subsidiaries’ expenses of approximately $78,000 related to the strengthening of the 
U.S. dollar against the Euro, British pound, and Indian rupee partially offset by a decrease of $47,000 in license related expenses.

The increase in fiscal year 2013 was primarily due to increases of (i) $3.9 million in personnel and personnel-related expenses 
from the increased headcount and Company-wide compensation increases, (ii) $414,000 in outside consulting expense, (iii) 288,000 in 
cloud  related  expenses,  and  (iv) 190,000  in  license  related  expenses  partially  offset  by  decreases  in  (i) international  subsidiaries’ 
expenses of approximately $245,000 related to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro, British pound, and Indian rupee.  

Gross margin was 67% in fiscal year 2014 and 69% for fiscal years 2013 and 2012.  

In  order  to  better  understand  the  changes  within  our  cost  of  revenue  and  resulting  gross  margins,  we  have  provided  the 

following discussion of the individual components of our cost of revenue.

Cost of subscription and support revenue includes personnel costs for our cloud services and maintenance and support. It also 
includes depreciation of  capital  equipment  used  in  our hosted network, cost of support  for  the  third-party  software,  and  lease costs 
paid to remote co-location centers.  

Total cost of subscription and support revenue was $8.5 million, $5.5 million and $5.4 million in fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 
2012,  respectively.  This  represented  an  increase  of  55%,  or  $3.0  million,  in  fiscal  year  2014  compared  to  fiscal  year  2013  and  an 
increase of 2%, or $132,000, in fiscal year 2013 compared to fiscal year 2012. Total cost of subscription and support revenue as a 
percentage of total subscription and support revenue was 21% (a gross margin of 79%) in fiscal year 2014 compared to 17% (a gross 
margin of 83%) in fiscal year 2013 and 23% (a gross margin of 77%) in fiscal year 2012.  

The increase in cost of subscription and support revenue in fiscal year 2014 was primarily due to increases of (i) $1.8 million in 
personnel and personnel-related expenses, (ii) $1.2 million in cloud related expenses, and (iii) international subsidiaries’ expenses of 
approximately  $52,000  from  the  foreign  exchange  fluctuation  between  the  U.S.  dollar,  the  Euro,  British  pound  and  Indian  rupee 
partially offset by a decrease of $51,000 in outside consulting services.  

The increase in cost of subscription and support revenue in fiscal year 2013 was primarily due to increases of (i) $288,000 in 
cloud  related  expenses  and  (ii) $35,000  in  outside  consulting  services  partially  offset  by  decreases  of  (i) international  subsidiaries’ 
expenses  of  approximately  $104,000  from  the  foreign  exchange  fluctuation  between  the  U.S.  dollar,  the  Euro,  British  pound  and 
Indian rupee, and (ii) $77,000 in personnel and personnel-related expenses, and (iii) $10,000 in support of third party software.  

Excluding the impact from any future foreign currency fluctuations, we anticipate cost of subscription and support revenue to 
increase in fiscal year 2015 and the gross margin to decrease when compared to fiscal year 2014, as we continue to invest in our cloud 
infrastructure.

Cost  of  license  primarily  includes  third-party  software  royalties  and  delivery  costs  for  shipments  to  customers.  Total  cost  of 
license was $104,000, $151,000 and $(39,000) in fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This represented a decrease of 31%, 
or $47,000 in fiscal year 2014 compared to 2013 and an increase of 487%, or $190,000, in fiscal year 2013 compared to 2012. Total 
cost of license as a percentage of total license revenue was approximately 1% (a gross margin of 99%) in fiscal years 2014 and 2013 
compared to 0% (a gross margin of 100%) in fiscal year 2012.  

The decrease in cost of license in fiscal years 2014 was primarily due to decrease in third party royalties expense. The increase 

in cost of license in fiscal year 2013 was primarily due to increases in third party royalty expense.  

We anticipate cost of license as a percentage of total license revenue to increase slightly in future periods.

Cost  of  professional  services  includes  personnel  costs  for  consulting  services.  Total  cost  of  professional  services  was  $14.8 
million, $12.4 million and $8.1 million in fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. This represented an increase of 20% or $2.5 
million, in fiscal year 2014 compared to fiscal year 2013 and an increase of 52%, or $4.2 million, in fiscal year 2013 compared to 
fiscal year 2012. Total cost of professional services as a percentage of total professional services revenue was 99% (a gross margin of 
1%) in fiscal year 2014 compared to 90% (a gross margin of 10%) in fiscal year 2013 and 93% (a gross margin of 7%) in fiscal year 
2012.  

The increase in cost of professional services in fiscal year 2014 was primarily due to increases of (i) $2.0 million in personnel 
and  personnel-related  expense  from  the  increased  headcount  and  Company-wide  compensation  increases,  (ii) $395,000  in  outside 
consulting  expenses,  and  (iii)  international  subsidiaries’  expenses  of  approximately  $25,000  from  the  foreign  exchange  fluctuation 
between the U.S. dollar, the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee.  

The increase in cost of professional services in fiscal year 2013 was primarily due to increases of (i) $4.0 million in personnel 
and personnel-related expense from the increased headcount and Company-wide compensation increases and (ii) $379,000 in outside 
consulting expenses partially offset by a decrease in international subsidiaries’ expenses of approximately $142,000 from the foreign 
exchange fluctuation between the U.S. dollar, the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee.  

Excluding the impact from any future foreign currency fluctuations, we anticipate cost of professional services to increase in 

absolute dollars and gross margin to remain relatively constant in future periods.

Research and development expenses primarily consist of compensation and benefits for our engineering, product management 
and quality  assurance personnel,  and,  to  a  lesser  extent, occupancy  costs  and related overhead.  Research  and  development  expense 
was $10.0 million, $8.4 million and $6.1 million in fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This represented an increase of 
18% or $1.5 million in the fiscal year 2014 compared to fiscal year 2013 and an increase of 37%, or $2.3 million, in fiscal year 2013 
compared to fiscal year 2012. Total research and development expenses as a percentage of total revenue was 14% in the fiscal years

The  increase  in  research  and  development  expense  in  fiscal  year  2014  was  primarily  due  to an  increase  of  $1.9  million  in 
personnel and personnel-related expenses from the increased headcount and Company-wide compensation increases partially offset by 
decreases  of  (i) international  subsidiaries’  expenses  of  approximately  $254,000  from  the  foreign  exchange  fluctuation  between  the 
U.S. dollar, the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee and (ii) $89,000 in outside consulting expenses.  

The  increase  in  research  and  development  expense  in  fiscal  year  2013  was  primarily  due  to an  increase  of  $2.6  million  in 
personnel and personnel-related expenses from the increased headcount and Company-wide compensation increases partially offset by 
decreases  of  (i) international  subsidiaries’  expenses  of  approximately  $171,000  from  the  foreign  exchange  fluctuation  between  the 
U.S. dollar, the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee and (ii) $128,000 in outside consulting expenses.  

Excluding  any  fluctuation  of  foreign  exchange  rates  in  the  Euro,  British  pound,  and  Indian  rupee  against  the  U.S.  dollar,  we 
anticipate research and development expense to increase as a percentage of total revenue in fiscal year 2015 based upon our current 
product development plans.

Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of compensation and benefits for our sales, marketing and business development 
personnel, lead generation activities, advertising, trade show and other promotional costs and, to a lesser extent, occupancy costs and 
related overhead. Sales and marketing expense was $33.4 million, $24.4 million and $20.1 million in fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012 
respectively. This represented an increase of 37%, or $8.9 million, in fiscal year 2014 compared to fiscal year 2013 and an increase of 
22%, or $4.3 million, in fiscal year 2013 compared to fiscal year 2012. Total sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total 
revenue was 48% in fiscal year 2014 compared to 41% in fiscal year 2013 and 47% in fiscal year 2012.  

Total sales expense was $28.6 million for fiscal 2014, an increase of 36% or $7.6 million, from $21.1 million for fiscal year 
2013. The increase in fiscal year 2014 was primarily due to increases of (i) $7.3 million in personnel and personnel-related expense 
related  to  the  increased  headcount  and  compensation  increase  in  our  worldwide  sales  force,  (ii) $520,000  in  sales  commission 
expense,  and  (iii) international  subsidiaries’  expenses  of  approximately  $533,000  primarily  from  the  foreign  exchange  fluctuation 
between  the  U.S.  dollar,  the  Euro,  British  pound,  and  (iv)  $86,000  in  outside  consulting  services  partially  offset  by  a  decrease  of  
$891,000 in third party partner fees.  

Total marketing expenses was $4.8 million for fiscal 2014, an increase of 41% or $1.4 million, from $3.4 million for fiscal year 
2013. The increase in fiscal year 2014 was primarily due to increases of (i) $749,000 in marketing programs expenses, (ii) $632,000 in 
personnel  and  personnel-related  expenses,  and  (iii)  $55,000  in  outside  consulting  expenses  partially  offset  by  a  decrease  in 
international  subsidiaries’  expenses  of  approximately  $56,000  primarily  from  the  foreign  exchange  fluctuation  between  the  U.S. 
dollar, the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee.  

Total sales expense was $21.1 million for fiscal 2013, an increase of 28% or $4.6 million, from $16.5 million for fiscal year 
2012. The increase in fiscal year 2013 was primarily due to increases of (i) $2.6 million in personnel and personnel-related expense 
related  to  the  increased  headcount  and  compensation  increase  in  our  worldwide  sales  force,  (ii) $1.7  million  in  sales  commission 
expense, and (iii) $642,000 in third party partner fees, partially offset by decreases of (i) $346,000 in outside consulting services and 
(ii) international subsidiaries’ expenses of approximately $58,000 primarily from the foreign exchange fluctuation between the U.S. 
dollar, the Euro, British pound.  

Total  marketing  expenses  was  $3.4  million  for  fiscal  2013,  a  decrease  of  6%  or  $222,000,  from  $3.6  million  for  fiscal  year 
2012.  The  decrease  in  fiscal  year  2013  was  primarily  due  to  decreases  of  (i) $395,000  in  marketing  programs  expenses,  and 
(ii) international subsidiaries’ expenses of approximately $66,000 primarily from the foreign exchange fluctuation between the U.S. 
dollar, the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee, partially offset by increases of (i) $89,000 in other promotional costs, (ii) $78,000 in 
personnel and personnel-related expenses, and (iii) $72,000 in outside consulting expenses.  

Excluding  any  fluctuation  of  foreign  exchange  rates  in  the  Euro,  British  pound,  and  Indian  rupee  against  the  U.S.  dollar,  we 

anticipate sales and marketing expense to decrease or remain relatively constant as a percentage of total revenue in fiscal year 2015.

extent, occupancy costs and related overhead. General and administrative expense was $7.5 million, $6.8 million and $5.7 million in 
the fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This represented an increase of 11% or $742,000 in fiscal year 2014 compared to 
fiscal  year  2013  and  an  increase  of  18%,  or  $1.0  million,  in  fiscal  year  2013  compared  to  fiscal  year  2012.  Total  general  and 
administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue was 11% in fiscal year 2014 compared to 12% in the fiscal year 2013 and 
13% in fiscal year 2012.  

The  increase  in  fiscal  year  2014  was  primarily  due  to  increases  of  (i) $529,000  in  legal  fees,  (ii) $397,000  in  personnel  and 
personnel-related  expense  from  the  increased  headcount  and  Company-wide  compensation  increases,  (iii) $49,000  in  bad  debt 
expense,  and  (iv) international  subsidiaries’  expenses  of  approximately  $16,000  primarily  from  the  foreign  exchange  fluctuation 
between the U.S. dollar, the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee partially offset by a decrease of $250,000 in other outside consulting 
expenses.  

The  increase  in  fiscal  year  2013  was  primarily  due  to  increases  of  (i) $318,000  in  one-time  charges  related  to  the  secondary 
offering of shares of our common stock, (ii) $256,000 in personnel and personnel-related expense from the increased headcount and 
Company-wide compensation increases, (iii) $245,000 in accounting and other outside consulting expenses, (iv) $242,000 in legal and 
outside  consulting  fees  related  to  investigation  and recovery  efforts of  the  unauthorized  wire  transfers,  and  (v) $58,000  in  bad debt 
expense, partially offset by a decrease in our international subsidiaries’ expenses of approximately $76,000 primarily from the foreign 
exchange fluctuation between the U.S. dollar, the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee.  

We anticipate general and administrative expenses to decrease as a percentage of total revenue in fiscal year 2015 based upon 
current revenue expectations excluding the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates in the Euro, British pound, and Indian rupee against 
the U.S. dollar.

Stock-based  compensation  expenses  include  the  amortization  of  the  fair  value  of  share-based  payments  made  to  employees, 
members of our board of directors and consultants, primarily in the form of stock options. The fair value of stock options granted is 
recognized as an expense, as the underlying stock options vest. The increase of our stock-based compensation expense in fiscal 2013 
was primarily due to the increased Company-wide headcount, increase in option grant activity and the increase in our stock price.  

We value our share-based payments under ASC 718, and record compensation expense for all share-based payments made to 

employees based on the fair value at the date of the grant.  

We expect our stock-based compensation expense to increase in fiscal year 2015 based on our anticipated hiring and also, if the 

stock price increases.

Loss from operations was $4.1 million in fiscal year 2014 compared to the income from operations of $1.2 million in fiscal year 
2013 and loss from operations of $2.0 million in fiscal year 2012. We recorded an operating loss of 6% in fiscal year 2014 compared 
to an operating margin of 2% in fiscal year 2013 and operating loss of 5% in the fiscal year 2012.  

The decrease in operating income (loss) in fiscal year 2014 was due to an increase in revenue of $11.4 million and an increase in 
total costs and operating expenses of $16.7 million. The increase in revenue was primarily due to an increase in cloud transactions. 
The impact of any fluctuation of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar on revenue was an increase of $1.3 million. The increase in 
total costs and operating expenses was primarily due to increases of (i) $14.8 million in personnel-related costs including an increase 
of  $520,000  in  sales  commission,  (ii) $1.0  million  in  cloud  related  expenses,  (iii) $749,000  in  marketing  programs  expenses, 
(iv) $532,000 in legal fees, (v) $318,000 in international expenses from the foreign exchange fluctuation between the U.S. dollar, the 
Euro,  British  pound  and  Indian  rupee,  (vi) $141,000  in  accounting  and  other  outside  consulting  expenses,  and  (vii) $49,000  in  bad 
debt expense partially offset by decreases of (i) $891,000 in third party partner fees, and (ii) $47,000 in license related expenses.  

The increase in operating income in fiscal year 2013 was due to an increase in revenue of $15.5 million and an increase in total 
costs and operating expenses of $12.2 million. The increase in revenue was primarily due to a growing interest in the eGain cloud. The 
impact  of  any  fluctuation  of  foreign  currencies  against  the  U.S.  dollar  on  revenue  was  minimal.  The  increase  in  total  costs  and 
operating expenses was primarily due to increases of (i) $11.2 million in personnel-related costs including an increase of $1.7 million 
in sales commission, (ii) $642,000 in third party partner fees, (iii) $318,000 in one-time charges related to the secondary offering of 
shares  of  our  common  stock,  (iv) $288,000  in  cloud  related  expenses,  (v) $242,000  in  legal  and  outside  consulting  fees  related  to 
investigation  and  recovery  efforts  of  the  unauthorized  wire  transfers,  (vi) $245,000  in  accounting  and  other  outside  consulting 
expenses, (vii) $190,000 in third party license royalty expense, (viii) 89,000 in marketing promotional costs, and (ix) $58,000 in bad 
debt expense partially offset by decreases of (i) $616,000 in international expenses from the foreign exchange fluctuation between the 
U.S. dollar, the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee, (ii) $395,000 in marketing programs expenses, and (iii) $10,000 in support of 
third party software.  

Interest Expense, Net  

Net interest expense was $181,000, $483,000 and $722,000 in fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This represents a 
decrease of 63% or $302,000 in fiscal year 2014, compared to fiscal year 2013 and a decrease of 33% or $239,000 in fiscal year 2013, 
compared to fiscal year 2012. Interest income was not significant in any year.  

The decrease in interest expense in fiscal year 2014 and 2013 was primarily due to repayment of related party notes principal 

balance. 

Other Income (Expense), Net  

Other expense was $415,000 in fiscal year 2014, compared to other income of $303,000 in fiscal year 2013 and other expense of 
$677,000 in fiscal year 2012. Other expense and income in fiscal years 2014 and 2013 primarily included the foreign exchange loss 
and gain on international trade receivables.  

Income Tax Provision  

Income  tax  provision  was  $591,000,  $379,000  and  $390,000  in  fiscal  years  2014,  2013  and  2012,  respectively.  Income  tax 

provision was primarily due to the income tax provision for foreign subsidiaries.

Related Party Transactions  

We had an interest bearing subordinated loan, or the Note, from our Chief Executive Officer, Ashutosh Roy, which originated in 
2002  and  previously  had  a  maturity  date  of  March 31,  2012.  On  March 31,  2012,  we  entered  into  Amendment  No.1  to  the  Note 
agreement with Mr. Roy. Pursuant to the Amendment and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, we agreed that (i) the 
maturity date of the Note would be extended 90 days to June 29, 2012; (ii) as of April 1, 2012 the “Face Amount” of the Note would 
be $5.6 million, which includes $109,000 of interest for the 90 day extension. The face amount of $5.6 million reflected the reduced 
interest rate on the Note of 8% beginning April 1, 2012, prior to which the interest rate was 12%; and (iii) we could prepay the Note in 
full or in part at any time prior to the maturity date without interest penalty.  

On June 29, 2012, we entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Note with Mr. Roy. Pursuant to the Amendment and subject to the 
terms and conditions contained therein, we agreed to extend the maturity date of the Note to July 31, 2013. We could prepay the Note 
in full or in part at any time prior to the maturity date without interest penalty. The interest expense on the related party notes was 
$19,000, $334,000 and $588,000 for fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  

On July 31, 2013, we repaid the outstanding amounts of $2.9 million to Mr. Roy. Such amounts equaled $2.9 million.  

New Accounting Pronouncements  

For information with respect to recent accounting pronouncements and the impact of these pronouncements on our consolidated 
financial  statements,  see  Note  1  of  Notes  to  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  included  in  Item 8  Financial  Statements  and 
Supplementary Data of this Annual Report.  

Liquidity and Capital Resources  
Overview  

As of June 30,  2014  and  2013, our  cash and  cash  equivalents was $8.8 million  and $16.2  million, respectively. Our  working 
capital was a negative $1.9 million at June 30, 2014, a decrease from working capital of $2.0 million at June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 
2014, our deferred revenue was $13.7 million, compared to $19.7 million at June 30, 2013. Unbilled deferred revenue, representing 
business  that  is  contracted  but  not  yet  invoiced  or  collected  and  off  balance  sheet,  was  $22.6  million  at  June 30,  2014,  down  from 
$24.8 million at June 30, 2013.  

Based upon our fiscal year 2015 plan, we believe that existing capital resources will enable us to maintain current and planned 
operations for at least the next 12 months. From time to time, however, we may consider opportunities for raising additional capital 
and/or exchanging all or a portion of our existing debt for equity. We can make no assurances that such opportunities will be available 
to us on economic terms we consider favorable, if at all.  

If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to achieve or sustain positive cash flows, maintain current 
operations, fund any potential expansion, take advantage of unanticipated opportunities, develop or enhance products or services, or 
otherwise respond to competitive pressures would be significantly limited. Our expectations as to our future cash flows and our future 
cash balances are subject to a number of assumptions, including assumptions regarding anticipated increases in our revenue, the mix 
of new cloud and license business, our ability to retain existing customers and customer purchasing and payment patterns, many of 
which are beyond our control.  

Cash Flows  

Net cash used by operating activities was $4.7 million in fiscal year 2014 compared to net cash provided by operating activities 
of $10.0 million in fiscal year 2013. In fiscal year 2014, net cash used by operating activities increased $14.7 million over fiscal year 
2013 primarily due lower net income after adjusting for depreciation and amortization, amortization of deferred commissions, stock-
based  compensation,  and  changes  in  working  capital  accounts  specifically,  decreases  in  deferred  revenue,  accounts  receivable  and 
prepaid and other current assets.  

Net cash provided by operating activities was $10.0 million in fiscal year 2013 compared to $1.0 million in fiscal year 2012. In 
fiscal  year  2013,  net  cash  provided  by  operating  activities  increased  $9.0  million  over  fiscal  year  2012  primarily  due  to  higher  net 
income  after  adjusting  for  depreciation  and  amortization,  stock-based  compensation,  and  changes  in  working  capital  accounts 
specifically, increases in deferred revenue, accounts receivable and deferred commissions.

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.8 million in fiscal year 2014 compared to $2.5 million in fiscal year 2013 and $1.2 
million in 2012. Cash used in investing activities in fiscal year 2014 primarily related to purchases of equipment and software of $1.8 
million to support the increase in investment for cloud infrastructure and equipment for new employees. Net cash used in investing 
activities in fiscal year 2013 primarily related to purchases of equipment and software of $2.5 million to support the increase in our 
cloud  business  and  for  new  employees.  Net  cash  used  in  investing  activities  in  fiscal  year  2012  primarily  related  to  purchases  of 
equipment and software of $1.8 million partially offset by $605,000 from the sale proceeds of short-term investments.  

Net cash used in financing activities was $1.1 million in fiscal year 2014 compared to $936,000 in fiscal year 2013 and $2.4 
million in 2012. Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal year 2014 primarily included the repayment of $2.9 million of related 
party notes, payments of $2.7 million on existing bank borrowings, and payments of $144,000 on capital lease obligations partially 
offset by proceeds from new bank borrowings of $3.0 million, proceeds from exercise of stock options of $578,000 and a $1.0 million 
decrease in restricted cash. Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal year 2013 primarily included the repayment of $3.0 million 
of related party notes, payments of $1.7 million on existing bank borrowings partially offset by proceeds from new bank borrowings 
of  $3.0  million  and  proceeds  from  exercise  of  stock  options  of  $730,000.  Net  cash  used  in  financing  activities  in  fiscal  year  2012 
primarily included payments of $1.7 million on existing bank borrowings, and increase of $1.0 million in restricted cash and payment 
of $28,000 on capital lease obligations partially offset by proceeds from exercise of stock options of $317,000.  

Related Party Notes Payable and Bank Borrowings  

On  December 31,  2012,  we  used  the  proceeds  from  the  new  bank  borrowings  to  make  a  $3.0  million  partial  repayment  to 

Mr. Roy which reduced the remaining indebtedness to Mr. Roy to $2.8 million.  

On July 31, 2013, we repaid the outstanding amounts of $2.9 million to Mr. Roy.  

Accounting for Unauthorized Wire Transfers  

On February 15, 2013, our U.K. subsidiary discovered that three unauthorized wire transfers, or the Unauthorized Transactions, 
in the amount of approximately $3.9 million were made from our bank account on February 14, 2013. We promptly obtained a court 
order  freezing  the  funds,  contacted  law  enforcement  and  obtained  an  independent  third-party  investigation  firm  to  investigate  the 
matter.  

With the assistance of the independent third-party investigation firm and our bank, approximately $2.7 million was recovered 
and re-deposited to our bank account in March 2013. We filed an insurance claim for approximately $1.2 million of the remaining 
outstanding funds  and had  reported  the pending  insurance  recovery  net of  a $25,000 deductible  as  a receivable  from  our  insurance 
carrier under “Prepaid and other current assets” on our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2013. 

On September 6, 2013, we received insurance proceeds of $1.2 million for the pending claim we filed with our insurance carrier.

Quarterly Results of Operations  

The following tables set forth certain unaudited consolidated statement of operations data for the eight quarters ended June 30, 
2014.  This  data  has  been  derived  from  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  that,  in  the  opinion  of  management,  include  all 
adjustments  consisting  only  of  normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  for  a  fair  presentation  of  such  information  when  read  in 
conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto.  

The  unaudited  quarterly  information  should  be  read  in  conjunction  with  the  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  and  Notes 
thereto  included  elsewhere  in  this  Form  10-K.  We  believe  that  period-to-period  comparisons  of  our  financial  results  are  not 
necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.

ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK  

We develop products in the United States and India and sell these products in the United States and internationally. Generally, 
international sales are made in local currency. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign 
currency  exchange  rates  or  weak  economic  conditions  in  foreign  markets.  Identifiable  assets  denominated  in  foreign  currency  at 
June 30, 2014 totaled approximately $13.3 million. We do not currently use derivative instruments to hedge against foreign exchange 
risk. As such we are exposed to market risk from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, principally from the exchange rate 
between  the  U.S  dollar  and  the  Euro  and  the  British  pound  and  the  Indian  rupee.  An  unfavorable  change  in  the  foreign  currency 
exchange rates may cause an adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

REPORT ON INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM 

Board of Directors and Stockholders 
eGain Corporation 
Sunnyvale, California 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of eGain Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as 
of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income/(loss), stockholders’ equity, 
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2014. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule 
listed  in  the  index  to  this  Annual  Report  on  Form  10-K  at  Part  IV  Item 15(a)(2).  These  consolidated  financial  statements  and  the 
financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 
consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.  

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are 
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the 
consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by 
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis 
for our opinion.  

In  our  opinion,  the  consolidated  financial  statements  referred  to  above  present  fairly,  in  all  material  respects,  the  financial 
position of eGain Corporation and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows 
for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United 
States  of  America.  Also,  in  our  opinion,  the  related  financial  statement  schedule,  when  considered  in  relation  to  the  consolidated 
financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.  

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the 
Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated 
Framework (1992 Framework) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report 
dated September 12, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

eGAIN CORPORATION  
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  

1. SUMMARY OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  
Organization and Nature of Business  

eGain Corporation (“eGain”, the “Company”, “our”, “we” or “us”) is a leading provider of cloud-based and on-site customer 
engagement software solutions. For over a decade, our solutions have helped improve customer experience, grow sales, and optimize 
service processes across the web, social, and phone channels. Hundreds of global enterprises rely on us to transform fragmented sales 
engagement and customer service operations into unified customer engagement hubs. We have operations in the United States, United 
Kingdom, Netherlands, Ireland, Italy, Germany, France, South Africa, and India.  

Principles of Consolidation  

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of eGain and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, eGain Communications 
Ltd.,  eGain  Communications  Pvt.  Ltd.,  eGain  Communications  SrL,  eGain  Communications  B.V.,  eGain  Communications    (SA),  
eGain France S.A.R.L and eGain Deutschland GmbH. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.  

In  fiscal  year  2012,  we  liquidated  our  Singapore  subsidiary  (eGain  Communications  Pacific  Pte.  Ltd)  and  recorded  a 
reclassification  adjustment  from  accumulated  other  comprehensive  loss  on  the  consolidated  balance  sheet  to  other  expense  on  the 
consolidated statement of operations. In fiscal year 2013, we liquidated our Cayman subsidiary (eGain Cayman Ltd). There was no 
financial impact to our consolidated financial statements. 

Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated balance sheets and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the 
fiscal year period ended June 30, 2013 to conform to the presentation of the fiscal year period ended June 30, 2014. There was no 
effect on total assets, stockholders’ equity or net income (loss) for the year ended June 30, 2013. 

Use of Estimates   

The  preparation  of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to 
make  estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities,  the  disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and 
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The 
estimates  are  based  upon  information  available  as  of  the  date  of  the  financial  statements.  Actual  results  could  differ  from  those 
estimates.  

We evaluate our significant estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, provision for doubtful accounts, valuation 
of stock-based compensation, valuation of long-lived assets, valuation of deferred tax assets, and litigation, among others. We base 
our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the 
results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent 
from other sources. We refer to accounting estimates of this type as “critical accounting estimates.”  

Foreign Currency  

The functional currency of each of our international subsidiaries is the local currency of the country in which it operates. Assets 
and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries are translated at month-end exchange rates, and revenue and expenses are translated at the 
average monthly exchange rates. The resulting cumulative translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other 
comprehensive  income/(loss).  Foreign  currency  transaction  gains  and  losses  are  included  in  “other  income/(expense),  net”  in  the 
consolidated statements of operations, and resulted in a loss of $405,000, a gain of $317,000, and a loss of $461,000 in fiscal years 
2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Investments  

We  consider  all  highly  liquid  investments  with  an  original  purchase  to  maturity  date  of  three  months  or  less  to  be  cash 
equivalents. Time deposits held for investments that are not debt securities are included in short-term investments in the consolidated 
balance sheets. Investments in time deposits with original maturities of more than three months but remaining maturities of less than 
one year are considered short-term investments. Investments held with the intent to reinvest or hold for longer than a year, or with 
remaining  maturities  of  one  year  or  more,  are  considered  long-term  investments.  Our  cash  equivalents  at  June 30,  2014  and  2013 
consisted  of  money  market  funds  with  original  maturities  of  three  months  or  less,  and  are  therefore  classified  as  cash  and  cash 
equivalents in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, we did not have any short-term or long-
term investments.  

50 

 
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments  

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt, 
including related party debt. We do not have any derivative financial instruments. We believe the reported carrying amounts of these 
financial instruments approximate fair value, based upon their short-term nature and comparable market information available at the 
respective balance sheet dates.  

Concentration of Credit Risk  

Financial instruments that subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade 
accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents and investments are deposited with high credit quality institutions. We are exposed to 
credit risk in the event of default by these institutions to the extent of the amount recorded on the balance sheet. We invest excess cash 
primarily in money market funds, which are highly liquid securities that bear minimal risk. In addition, we have investment policies 
and procedures that are reviewed periodically to minimize credit risk. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $8.8 million 
as of June 30, 2014 which exceeded the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) limit.  

Our customer base extends across many different industries and geographic regions. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of 
our  customers  with  outstanding  receivables  and  generally  do  not  require  collateral.  In  addition,  we  established  an  allowance  for 
doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of customers, historical trends and other information. There were two 
different customers that accounted for 16% and 10% of total revenue in fiscal year 2014. Two different customers accounted for 18% 
and 10% of total revenue in fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively. Two customers accounted for approximately 28% and 14%, of 
accounts receivable at June 30, 2014. Two customers accounted for approximately 15% and 11%, of accounts receivable at June 30, 
2013. One customer accounted for approximately 17% of accounts receivable at June 30, 2012.   

Sales to customers outside of North America accounted for $31.7 million, $23.4 million, and $19.1 million of our total revenue 

in the fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts  

We extend unsecured credit to our customers on a regular basis. Our accounts receivable are derived from revenue earned from 
customers and are not interest bearing. We also maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potential uncollectible trade 
receivables. We  review our  trade receivables by  aging  category  to  identify  specific  customers  with known disputes  or  collectibility 
issues.  We  exercise  judgment  when  determining  the  adequacy  of  these  reserves  as  we  evaluate  historical  bad  debt  trends,  general 
economic conditions in the U.S. and internationally, and changes in customer financial conditions. If we made different judgments or 
utilized different estimates, material differences may result in additional reserves for trade receivables, which would be reflected by 
charges  in  general  and  administrative  expenses  for  any  period  presented.  We  write  off  a  receivable  after  all  collection  efforts  have 
been exhausted and the amount is deemed uncollectible.  

Receivable from Insurance Recovery  

In certain circumstances, we record insurance recoveries that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve month period in 
other current assets. Such amounts represent pending insurance claims and are recorded net of any insurance deductible in accordance 
with the guidance in ASC 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations, and other interpretations for recognition of an asset 
related to insurance recovery when probable.  

Property and Equipment  

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using 
the  straight-line  method  over  the  estimated  useful  life  of  the  respective  assets,  which  typically  is  between  three  to  five  years.  
Leasehold improvements and leased equipment are depreciated on straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or useful life of 
the asset, which is typically three to five years.  

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets  

We review goodwill annually for impairment or sooner whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may be 
impaired.  These  events  or  circumstances  could  include  a  significant  change  in  the  business  climate,  legal  factors,  operating 
performance  indicators,  competition,  or  sale  or  disposition  of  a  significant  portion  of  a  reporting  unit.  In  addition,  we  evaluate 
purchased  intangible  assets  to  determine  that  all  such  assets  have  determinable  lives.  We  operate  under  a  single  reporting  unit  and 
accordingly,  all  of  our  goodwill  is  associated  with  the  entire  company.  We  performed  annual  impairment  reviews  for  fiscal  years 
2014, 2013 and 2012 and found no impairment.  

51 

 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets  

We  review  long-lived  assets  for  impairment,  including  property  and  equipment  and  intangible  assets,  whenever  events  or 
changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. An impairment loss is 
recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are 
less than its carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is assessed using discounted cash flows. During fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012, 
we did not have any such losses.  

Revenue Recognition  

We enter into arrangements to deliver multiple products or services (multiple-elements). We apply software revenue recognition 
rules and multiple-elements arrangement revenue guidance. Significant management judgments and estimates are made and used to 
determine the revenue recognized in any accounting period. Material differences may result in changes to the amount and timing of 
our  revenue  for  any  period  if  different  conditions  were  to  prevail.  We  present  revenue,  net  of  taxes  collected  from  customers  and 
remitted to governmental authorities.  

We derive revenue from three sources:  

(i) Subscription and support fees primarily consist of cloud revenue from customers accessing our enterprise cloud computing 
services, term license revenue, and maintenance and support revenue;  
(ii) License fees primarily consist of perpetual software license revenue;  
(iii) Professional services primarily consist of consulting, implementation services and training.  

Revenues are recognized when all of the following criteria are met:  

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists: Evidence of an arrangement consists of a written contract signed by both 
the  customer  and  management  prior  to  the  end  of  the  period.  We  use  signed  software  license,  services  agreements  and 
order  forms  as  evidence  of  an  arrangement  for  sales  of  software,  cloud,  maintenance  and  support.  We  use  signed 
statement of work as evidence of arrangement for professional services.  

Delivery or performance has occurred: Software is delivered to customers electronically or on a CD-ROM, and license 
files  are  delivered  electronically.  Delivery  is  considered  to  have  occurred  when  we  provide  the  customer  access  to  the 
software along with login credentials.  

Fees are fixed or determinable: We assess whether the fee is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated 
with  the  transaction.  Arrangements  where  a  significant  portion  of  the  fee  is  due  beyond  90  days  from  delivery  are 
generally not considered to be fixed or determinable.  

Collectibility is probable: We assess collectibility based on a number of factors, including the customer’s past payment 
history  and  its  current  creditworthiness.  Payment  terms  generally  range  from  30  to  90  days  from  invoice  date.  If  we 
determine that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, we defer the revenue and recognize it at the time collection 
becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash payment.  

We apply the provisions of ASC 985-605, Software Revenue Recognition, to all transactions involving the licensing of software 
products.  In  the  event  of  a  multiple  element  arrangement  for  a  license  transaction,  we  evaluate  the  transaction  as  if  each  element 
represents  a  separate  unit  of  accounting  taking  into  account  all  factors  following  the  accounting  standards.  We  apply  ASC  605, 
Revenue Recognition, for cloud transactions to determine the accounting treatment for multiple elements. We also apply ASC 605-35 
for fixed  fee  arrangements  in  which we  use  the percentage of  completion  method  to  recognize  revenue  when reliable  estimates  are 
available  for  the  costs  and  efforts  necessary  to  complete  the  implementation  services.  When  such  estimates  are  not  available,  the 
completed contract method is utilized. Under the completed contract method, revenue is recognized only when a contract is completed 
or substantially complete.  

When licenses are sold together with system implementation and consulting services, license fees are recognized upon shipment, 
provided that (i) payment of the license fees is not dependent upon the performance of the consulting and implementation services, 
(ii) the services are available from other vendors, (iii) the services qualify for separate accounting as we have sufficient experience in 
providing such services, have the ability to estimate cost of providing such services, and we have vendor-specific objective evidence, 
or VSOE, of fair value, and (iv) the services are not essential to the functionality of the software.  

52 

 
We  enter  into  arrangements  with  multiple-deliverables  that  generally  include  subscription,  maintenance  and  support,  and 
professional  services.  We  evaluate  whether  each  of  the  elements  in  these  arrangements  represents  a  separate  unit  of  accounting,  as 
defined  by  ASC  605,  using  all  applicable  facts  and  circumstances,  including  whether  (i) we  sell  or  could  readily  sell  the  element 
unaccompanied by the other elements, (ii) the element has stand-alone value to the customer, and (iii) there is a general right of return. 
We use VSOE, of fair value for each of those units, when available. For revenue recognition with multiple-deliverable elements, in 
certain limited circumstances when VSOE of fair value does not exist, we apply the  selling price hierarchy, which includes VSOE, 
third-party evidence of selling price, or TPE, and best estimate of selling price, or BESP. We determine the relative selling price for a 
deliverable  based  on  VSOE,  if  available,  or  BESP,  if  VSOE  is  not  available.  We  have  determined  that  TPE  is  not  a  practical 
alternative  due  to  differences  in  our  service  offerings  compared  to  other  parties  and  the  availability  of  relevant  third-party  pricing 
information.  

We  determine  BESP  by  considering  our  overall  pricing  objectives  and  market  conditions.  Significant  pricing  practices  taken 
into consideration include our discounting practices, the size and volume of our transactions, customer demographic, the geographic 
area where services are sold, price lists, its go-to-market strategy, historical standalone sales and contract prices. The determination of 
BESP is made through consultation with and approval by our management, taking into consideration the go-to-market strategy. As our 
go-to-market strategies evolve, we may  modify our pricing practices in the future, which could result in changes in relative selling 
prices, including both VSOE and BESP.  

Subscription and Support Revenue  

Cloud Revenue  

Cloud revenue  consists of  subscription  fees  from  customers accessing our  cloud-based  service offerings. We  recognize  cloud 
services  revenue  ratably  over  the  period  of  the  applicable  agreement  as  services  are  provided.  Cloud  agreements  typically  have  an 
initial term of one or two years and automatically renew unless either party cancels the agreement. The majority of the cloud services 
customers  purchase  a  combination  of  our  cloud  service  and  professional  services.  In  some  cases,  the  customer  may  also  acquire  a 
license for our software.  

We consider the applicability of ASC 985-605, on a contract-by-contract basis. In cloud based agreements, where the customer 
does not have the contractual right to take possession of the software, the revenue is recognized on a monthly basis over the term of 
the  contract.  Invoiced  amounts  are  recorded  in  accounts  receivable  and  in  deferred  revenue  or  revenue,  depending  on  whether  the 
revenue  recognition  criteria have  been  met.  We  consider  a  software  element  to  exist  when  we  determine  that  the  customer  has  the 
contractual right to take possession of our software at any time during the cloud period without significant penalty and can feasibly 
run the software on its own hardware or enter into another arrangement with a third party to host the software. Additionally, we have 
established VSOE for the cloud and maintenance and support elements of perpetual license sales, based on the prices charged when 
sold separately and substantive renewal terms. Accordingly, when a software element exists in a cloud services arrangement, license 
revenue for the perpetual software license element is determined using the residual method and is recognized upon delivery. Revenue 
for the cloud and maintenance and support elements is recognized ratably over the contractual time period. Professional services are 
recognized  as  described  below  under  “Professional  Services  Revenue.”  If  VSOE  of  fair  value  cannot  be  established  for  the 
undelivered elements of an agreement, the entire amount of revenue from the arrangement is recognized ratably over the period that 
these elements are delivered.  

Term License Revenue  

Term license revenue includes arrangements where our customers receive license rights to use our software along with bundled 
maintenance and support services for the term of the contract. The majority of our contracts provide customers with the right to use 
one  or  more  products  up  to  a  specific  license  capacity.  Certain  of  our  license  agreements  stipulate  that  customers  can  exceed  pre-
determined  base  capacity  levels,  in  which  case  additional  fees  are  specified  in  the  license  agreement.  Term  license  revenue  is 
recognized ratably over the term of the license contract.  

Maintenance and Support Revenue  

Maintenance and support revenue consists of customers purchasing maintenance and support for our on-premise software. We 
use  VSOE  of  fair  value  for  maintenance  and  support  to  account  for  the  arrangement  using  the  residual  method,  regardless  of  any 
separate prices stated within the contract for each element. Maintenance and support revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the 
maintenance  contract,  which  is  typically  one  year.  Maintenance  and  support  is  renewable  by  the  customer  on  an  annual  basis. 
Maintenance and support rates, including subsequent renewal rates, are typically established based upon a specified percentage of net 
license fees as set forth in the arrangement.  

53 

 
License Revenue  

License  revenue  consists  of  perpetual  license  rights  sold  to  customers  to  use  our  software  in  conjunction  with  related 
maintenance and support services. If an acceptance period is required, revenue is recognized upon the earlier of customer acceptance 
or the expiration of the acceptance period. In software arrangements that include rights to multiple software products and/or services, 
we use the residual method under which revenue is allocated to the undelivered elements based on VSOE of the fair value of such 
undelivered elements. The residual amount of revenue is allocated to the delivered elements and recognized as revenue, assuming all 
other criteria for revenue recognition have been met. Such undelivered elements in these arrangements typically consist of software 
maintenance and support, implementation and consulting services and in some cases, cloud services.  

License sales to resellers as a percentage of total revenue were approximately 11%, 6%, and 2% in fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 
2012, respectively. Revenue from sales to resellers is generally recognized upon delivery to the reseller but depends on the facts and 
circumstances  of  the  transaction,  such  as  our  understanding  of  the  reseller’s  plans  to  sell  the  software,  if  there  are  any  return 
provisions,  price  protection  or  other  allowances,  the  reseller’s  financial  status  and  our  experience  with  the  particular  reseller. 
Historically sales to resellers have not included any return provisions, price protections or other allowances.  

Professional Services Revenue  

Professional Services Revenue includes system implementation, consulting and training. For license transactions, the majority 
of our consulting and implementation services qualify for separate accounting. We use VSOE of fair value for the services to account 
for  the  arrangement  using  the  residual  method,  regardless  of  any  separate  prices  stated  within  the  contract  for  each  element.  Our 
consulting and implementation service contracts are bid either on a fixed-fee basis or on a time-and-materials basis. Substantially all 
of  our  contracts  are  on  a  time-and-materials  basis.  For  time-and-materials  contracts,  where  the  services  are  not  essential  to  the 
functionality,  we  recognize  revenue  as  services  are  performed.  If  the  services  are  essential  to  functionality,  then  both  the  product 
license  revenue  and  the  service  revenue  are  recognized  under  the  percentage  of  completion  method.  For  a  fixed-fee  contract,  we 
recognize revenue based upon the costs and efforts to complete the services in accordance with the percentage of completion method, 
provided we are able to estimate such cost and efforts.  

In order to account for deliverables in a multiple-deliverable arrangement as separate units of accounting, the deliverables must 
have  standalone  value  upon  delivery.  For  cloud  services,  in  determining  whether  professional  services  have  standalone  value,  we 
consider the following factors for each professional services agreement: availability of the services from other vendors, the nature of 
the professional services, the timing of when the professional services contract was signed in comparison to the subscription service 
start date and the contractual dependence of the subscription service on the customer’s satisfaction with the professional services work. 

We determined at or around July 1, 2013 that we had established standalone value for consulting and implementation services. 
This was primarily due to the change in our business focus, the growing number of partners we trained and certified to perform these 
deployment services and the consequential sale of subscription services without bundled implementation service. Revenues earned 
from professional services related to consulting and implementation of a majority of our core subscription services are being 
accounted for separately from revenues earned from subscription services beginning July 1, 2013 when the standalone value was 
established for those professional services. 

For  those  contracts  that  have  standalone  value,  we  recognized  the  services  revenue  when  rendered  for  time  and  material 
contracts, when the milestones are achieved and accepted by the customer for fixed price contracts or by percentage of completion 
basis if there is no acceptance criteria. For cloud, consulting and implementation services that do not qualify for separate accounting, 
we  recognize  the  services  revenue  ratably  over  the  estimated  life  of  the  customer  cloud  relationship,  once  cloud  has  gone  live  or 
system ready. We currently estimate the life of the customer cloud relationship to be approximately 28 months, based on the average 
life of all cloud customer relationships.  

Training revenue that meets the criteria to be accounted for separately is recognized when training is provided.  

Deferred Revenue  

Deferred  revenue  primarily  consists  of  payments  received  in  advance  of  revenue  recognition  from  cloud,  term  license,  and 
maintenance  and  support  services  and  is recognized  as  the  revenue recognition  criteria  are  met. We generally  invoice  customers in 
annual or quarterly installments. The deferred revenue balance does not represent the total contract value of annual or multi-year, non-
cancelable cloud or maintenance and support agreements. Deferred revenue is influenced by several factors, including seasonality, the 
compounding effects of renewals, invoice duration, invoice timing and new business linearity within the quarter.  

Deferred revenue that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period is recorded as current deferred revenue and 

the remaining portion is recorded as noncurrent.  

54 

 
Deferred Commissions  

Deferred  commissions  are  the  direct  and  incremental  costs  directly  associated  with  cloud  and  term  license  contracts  with 

customers and consist of sales commissions to our direct sales force.  

The commissions are deferred and amortized over the terms of the related customer contracts, which are typically one or two 
years. The commission payments are paid based on contract terms in the month following the quarter in which the commissions are 
earned.  The  deferred  commission  amounts  are  recognized  as  “sales  and  marketing”  expense  in  the  consolidated  statements  of 
operations over the terms of the related customer contracts, in proportion to the recognition of the associated revenue.  

Deferred Costs  

Deferred  costs  are  included  in  other  assets.  Such  amounts  include  fees  we  pay  to  third  party  partners  for  technology  and  are 
deferred and amortized over the related customer contract term. Amortization of deferred third party partner fees is included in sales 
and marketing expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  

Leases  

Lease  agreements  are  evaluated  to  determine  whether  they  are  capital  or  operating  leases  in  accordance  with  ASC  840, 

Accounting for Leases. When any one of the four test criteria in ASC 840 is met, the lease then qualifies as a capital lease.  

Capital  leases  are  capitalized  at  the  lower  of  the  net  present  value  of  the  total  amount  payable  under  the  leasing  agreement 
(excluding finance charges) or the fair market value of the leased asset. Capital lease assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis, 
over  a  period  consistent  with  our  normal  depreciation  policy  for  tangible  fixed  assets,  but  not  exceeding  the  lease  term.  Interest 
charges are expensed over the period of the lease in relation to the carrying value of the capital lease obligation.  

Rent  expense  for  operating  leases,  which  may  include  free  rent  or  fixed  escalation  amounts  in  addition  to  minimum  lease 

payments, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the duration of each lease term.  

Software Development Costs  

We account for software development costs in accordance with ASC 985, Software, for costs of the software to be sold, leased 
or marketed, whereby costs for the development of new software products and substantial enhancements to existing software products 
are included in research and development expense as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at which time any 
additional  costs  are  capitalized.  Technological  feasibility  is  established  upon  completion  of  a  working  model.  To  date,  software 
development  costs  incurred  in  the  period  between  achieving  technological  feasibility  and  general  availability  of  software  have  not 
been material and have been charged to operations as incurred.  

Advertising Costs  

We expense advertising costs as incurred. Total advertising expenses for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 

were $120,000, $138,000, and $251,000 respectively.  

Stock-Based Compensation  

We  account  for  stock-based compensation in  accordance with ASC 718,  Compensation—Stock  Compensation. Under  the fair 
value recognition provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the 
award and is recognized as expense over the vesting period. Determining the fair value of the stock-based awards at the grant date 
requires  significant  judgment  and  the  use of  estimates,  particularly  surrounding  Black-Scholes  valuation  assumptions  such  as  stock 
price volatility and expected option term.  

Income Taxes  

Income  taxes  are  accounted  for  using  the  asset  and  liability  method  in  accordance  with  ASC  740,  Income  Taxes.  Under  this 
method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between 
the  financial  statement  carrying  amounts  of  existing  assets  and  liabilities  and  their  respective  tax  bases.  Based  upon  the  weight  of 
available evidence, which includes our historical operating performance and the reported cumulative net losses in all prior years, we 
have  provided  a  full  valuation  allowance  against  our  net  deferred  tax  assets  except  the  deferred  tax  assets  related  to  India,  as  we 
believe it is more likely than not that those assets will be realized. Our provision consists of foreign and state income taxes.

The FASB clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statement, and prescribes a 
recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a 
tax  return.  Additionally,  the  FASB  provides  guidance  under  ASC  740,  Income  Taxes  on  de-recognition,  classification,  interest  and 
penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  

Comprehensive Income / (Loss)  

We report comprehensive income / (loss) and its components in accordance with ASC 220, Comprehensive Income. Under the 
accounting  standards,  comprehensive  income  /  (loss)  includes  all  changes  in  equity  during  a  period  except  those  resulting  from 
investments by or distributions to owners. Total comprehensive income / (loss) for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 
2014 is shown in the accompanying statements of comprehensive income / (loss). Accumulated other comprehensive loss presented in 
the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  at  June 30,  2014  and  2013  consist  of  accumulated  foreign  currency  translation 
adjustments.  

Net Income / (Loss) Per Common Share  

Basic  net  income  /  (loss)  per  common  share  is  computed  using  the  weighted-average  number  of  shares  of  common  stock 
outstanding. In periods where net income is reported, the weighted–average number of shares is increased by warrants and options in 
the money to calculate diluted net income per common share.  

The following table represents the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share (in thousands, except per 

share data):

anti-dilutive effect. Such securities could have a dilutive effect in future periods.

There were two different customers that accounted for 16% and 10% of total revenue in fiscal year 2014, 18% of total revenue 
in fiscal year 2013, and 10% of total revenue in fiscal year 2012. Revenue is allocated to individual countries and geographical region 
by customer, based on where the product is shipped to and location of services performed.  

New Accounting Pronouncements  

In  May  2014,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  2014-09,  Revenue  from  Contracts  with  Customers,  which  supersedes  the  revenue 
recognition  requirements  in  Topic  605,  Revenue  Recognition  and  requires  entities  to  recognize  revenue  in  a  way  that  depicts  the 
transfer  of  promised  goods  or  services  to  customers  in  an  amount  that  reflects  the  consideration  to  which  the  entity  expects  to  be 
entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning 
after December 15, 2016 (our fiscal 2018), including interim periods within that reporting period, with early application not permitted. 
The  Company  is  currently  evaluating  the  effects  that  the  adoption  of  this  guidance  will  have  on  the  Company’s  financial  position, 
results of operations and cash flows. 

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes, which applies to all entities that have unrecognized tax benefits 
when a net operating loss, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. The amendments in this update 
are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013 (our fiscal 2015). We do not 
anticipate the adoption of this amendment to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.  

In  March  2013,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  2013-05,  Foreign  Currency  Matters,  which  applies  to  the  release  of  the  cumulative 
translation adjustment into net income, when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a 
controlling financial  interest in  a  subsidiary  that  is  a nonprofit  activity  or business within  a  foreign  entity.  The  amendments  in  this 
update are effective for public companies prospectively beginning after December 15, 2013 (our fiscal 2015), and interim and annual 
periods  thereafter.  We  do  not  anticipate  the  adoption  of  this  amendment  to  have  a  material  impact  on  our  consolidated  financial 
statements.

We had an interest-bearing subordinated loan, or the Note, from our Chief Executive Officer, Ashutosh Roy, which originated in 
2002 and previously had a maturity date of March 31, 2012. On March 31, 2012, we entered into Amendment No.1 to the Note with 
Mr. Roy. Pursuant to the Amendment No.1 and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, we agreed that (i) the maturity 
date of the Note would be extended 90 days to June 29, 2012; (ii) as of April 1, 2012 the “Face Amount” of the Note would be $5.6 
million, which included $109,000 of interest for the 90 day extension. The Face Amount of $5.6 million reflected the reduced interest 
rate on the Note of 8% beginning April 1, 2012 prior to which the interest rate was 12%; and (iii) the Company could prepay the Note 
in full or in part at any time prior to the maturity date without interest penalty.  

On June 29, 2012, we entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Note with Mr. Roy. Pursuant to Amendment No. 2, and subject to 
the terms and conditions contained therein, we agreed to extend the maturity date of the Note to July 31, 2013. We could prepay the 
Note in full or in part at any time prior to the maturity date without interest penalty. On December 31, 2012, we made a $3.0 million 
partial repayment to Mr. Roy bringing the remaining indebtedness to Mr. Roy to $2.8 million.  

Interest expense on related party notes was $19,000, $334,000, $588,000 for fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.  

On July 31, 2013, we repaid the outstanding amount of $2.9 million owed and terminated the loan agreement.

4. BANK BORROWINGS  

On  June 27,  2011,  we  entered  into  a  Loan  and  Security  Agreement,  or  the  Comerica  Credit  Facility,  with  Comerica  Bank, 
Comerica, or the Bank, as may be amended from time to time. Our obligations under the Comerica Credit Facility are collateralized by 
a lien on our assets. There were a number of affirmative and negative covenants under the Comerica Credit Facility, with the primary 
covenants being that we were required to maintain a minimum cash balance of $1.0 million and maintain a liquidity to debt ratio of at 
least 1.50 to 1.00. If we failed to comply with our covenants, Comerica could declare any outstanding amounts immediately due and 
payable and stop extending credit to us. In 2013, we accounted for the $1.0 million minimum cash balance as non-current restricted 
cash  as  the  funds  were not  available  for  immediate  withdraw or  use  and the  term  of  the  borrowing  arrangement  was  more  than  12 
months.  

On December 28, 2012, we entered into a Third Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement with Comerica, which amended 
the Second Loan and Security Agreement, entered into by the Company and the Bank on June 28, 2012. Subject to and upon the terms 
and conditions of the Loan Amendment, the Bank agreed to make a term loan to the Company in one disbursement in the amount of 
$3.0 million, which the Company was obligated to use to pay down indebtedness owed to Mr. Roy.  

The Third Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement provides, in addition to other terms and conditions contained therein, 
that (i) the maturity date of the term loan will be June 28, 2016; (ii) the Company shall repay the term loan in thirty-six (36) equal 
monthly  installments  of  principal  in  the  amount  of  $83,333.33  each,  plus  all  accrued  interest,  beginning  on  July 1,  2013,  and 
continuing  on  the  same  day  of  each  month  thereafter  through  the  maturity  date,  at  which  time  remaining  amounts  due  shall  be 
immediately due and payable; (iii) the proceeds of the term loan must be used to pay-down the Note; (iv) the interest on the term loan 
is the prime interest rate plus one percent and (v) there are no prepayment penalties or warrants associated with the term loan.  

On  December 31,  2012,  the  Company  used  the  proceeds  of  the  term  loan  to  pay  $3.0  million  of  the  indebtedness  due  to 

Mr. Roy.  

On April 30, 2014, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement with Comerica, which amended the 
Third Loan and Security Agreement, entered into by the Company and the Bank on December 28, 2012. Subject to and upon the terms 
and conditions of this Agreement, the Bank agreed to make a term loan with a maturity date of January 30, 2018 to the Company in 
one disbursement in the amount of $3.0 million. The Company shall repay the term loan in thirty-six (36) equal monthly installments 
of principal  in  the  amount of  $83,333.33  each, plus  all  accrued  interest, beginning  on February  1, 2015. A  revolving  line was  also 
established whereby we may request advances up to an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed the lesser of $7.0 million or the 
borrowing base. Amounts borrowed under the revolving line may be repaid and re-borrowed at any time without penalty or premium 
prior  to  April  30,  2016.  As  of  June  30,  2014,  there  were  no  outstanding  amounts  due  on  the  revolving  line.  Under  the  Fourth 
Amendment,  we  are  required  to  maintain  a  minimum  cash  balance  of  seventy  percent  of  our  consolidated  cash  at  Comerica  and 
maintain  liquidity  to  debt  ratio  of  at  least  2.00  to  1.00.  As  a  result,  the  previously  required  $1.0  million  minimum  restricted  cash 
balance could be accounted for under cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with the covenants. 

As  of  June 30,  2014  and  2013,  the  amount  outstanding  under  the  Comerica  Term  Loans  was  $5.0  million  and  $4.7  million 

respectively. The interest rate on the loan was 4.25% as of June 30, 2014 and 2013.

million, respectively. The net operating loss carryforwards will expire at various dates beginning in 2019 through 2033, if not utilized. 
Partial amounts of the net operating loss are generated from the exercise of options and the tax benefit would be credited directly to 
stockholders’ equity. We also had federal research and development credit carryforwards of approximately $2.0 million as of June 30, 
2014  which  will  expire  at  various  dates  beginning  in  2016  through  2033,  if  not  utilized.  The  California  research  and  development 
credit carryforwards are approximately $3.3 million as of June 30, 2014 and have an indefinite carryover period. We also have U.K. 
net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $8.0 million as of June 30, 2014.  

Utilization of the net operating losses and credits may be subject to a substantial limitation due to the “change in ownership” 
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net 
operating losses and credits before utilization.  

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  reflect  the  net  tax  effects  of  net  operating  loss  and  credit  carryforwards  and  of  temporary 

differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

ASC 740, Income Taxes, provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. 
Based  upon  the  weight  of  available  evidence,  which  includes  our  historical  operating  performance  and  the  reported  cumulative  net 
losses in all prior years, we have provided a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets except the deferred tax asset 
related to India as we believe it is more likely than not that those assets will be realized.  

The net valuation allowance increased by $914,000 for the year ended June 30, 2014, compared to the decrease of $5.0 million 

for year ended June 30, 2013, and the increase of $924,000 for year ended June 30, 2012, respectively.  

Deferred  tax  liabilities  have  not  been  recognized  for  $5.2  million  of  undistributed  earnings  of  our  foreign  subsidiaries  at 
June 30, 2014. It is our intention to reinvest such undistributed earnings indefinitely in our foreign subsidiaries. If we distribute these 
earnings, in the form of dividends or otherwise, we would be subject to both United States income taxes (net of applicable foreign tax 
credits) and withholding taxes payable to the foreign jurisdiction.  

Uncertain Tax Positions  

We apply ASC 740, Income Taxes, related to uncertainty in income taxes.  

The aggregate changes in the balance of our gross unrecognized tax benefits during fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012 were as 

follows (in thousands):  

Beginning balance .................................................................... $
Increases in balances related to tax positions taken during 
   current periods ......................................................................

We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax provision, and the amounts 

were insignificant for the last three fiscal years.  

We do not anticipate the amount of existing unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 
months. We file income tax returns in the United States, and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In these jurisdictions tax years, 
1994-2012 remain subject to examination by the appropriate governmental agencies due to tax loss carryovers from those years.

Reserved 
Stock 
Options 

Preferred Stock  

We are authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 per share, and no shares of preferred 
stock are outstanding. Our board of directors has the authority, without further action by our stockholders, to issue up to 5,000,000 
shares  of  preferred  stock  in  one  or  more  series  and  to  fix  the  rights,  preferences,  privileges  and  restrictions  thereof.  These  rights, 
preferences and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, 
sinking  fund  terms  and  the  number  of  shares  constituting  any  series  or  the  designation  of  such  series,  any  or  all  of  which  may  be 
greater than the rights of the common stock.  

Common Stock Warrants  

We  had  a  Conversion  Agreement  and  Amendment  to  Subordinated  Secured  Promissory  Notes,  or  the  Agreement,  which 
originated in 2008 with Mr. Roy, Oak Hill Capital Partners L.P., Oak Hill Capital Management Partners L.P., and FW Investors L.P., 
or the lenders. A condition we and the lenders agreed to, pursuant to the Agreement, was to extend the maturity date of the remaining 
outstanding  indebtedness  and  the  period  for  which  interest  was  accrued,  or  the  Note  Extension.  In  consideration  for  the  Note 
Extension, the lenders received warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,525,515 shares of our common stock at a price per share equal 
to $0.95. The fair value of these warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes valuation method with the following assumptions: 
an expected life of three years, an expected stock price volatility of 80%, a risk free interest rate of 2.26%, and a dividend yield of 0%. 
Mr. Roy  exercised  his  warrants  to  purchase  1,218,493  shares  of  our  common  stock  in  March  2011.  In  September  2011,  Oak  Hill 
Capital Partners L.P., Oak Hill Capital Management Partners L.P., and FW Investors L.P. exercised 307,022 warrants on a cashless 
basis and received 238,393 shares of our common stock. As such, there are no warrants outstanding with the lenders as of June 30, 
2014 and 2013.  

2005 Management Stock Option Plan  

In May 2005, our board of directors adopted the 2005 Management Stock Option Plan, or the 2005 Management Plan, which 
provides for the grant of non-statutory stock options to directors, officers and key employees of eGain and its subsidiaries. The Plan 
was  increased  by  500,000  shares  of  common  stock  in  November  2007  and  500,000  shares  of  common  stock  in  September  2011. 
Options under the 2005 Management Plan are granted at a price not less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on 
the date of grant. Options granted under the 2005 Management Plan are subject to eGain’s right of repurchase, whose right shall lapse 
with  respect  to  one-forty-eighth  (1/48th) of  the  shares  granted  to  a  director,  officer  or  key  employee  for  each  month  of  continuous 
service provided by such director, officer or key employee to eGain. The options granted under this plan are exercisable for up to ten 
years from the date of grant.

2005 Stock Incentive Plan  

In March 2005, our board of directors adopted the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan, the 2005 Incentive Plan, which provides for the 
grant of stock options to eGain’s employees, officers, directors and consultants. Options granted under the 2005 Incentive Plan are 
either incentive stock options or non-statutory stock options. Incentive stock options may be granted to employees with exercise prices 
of no less than the fair value of the common stock on the date of grant. The options generally vest ratably over a period of four years 
and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. We received stockholder approval of the 2005 Incentive Plan at our 2005 
Annual  Meeting  of  Stockholders.  Our  board  of  directors  approved  an  increase  in  the  2005  Incentive  Plan  by  1.0 million  shares  of 
common stock in February 2009 and 1.0 million shares of common stock in September 2011. We received stockholder approval for 
the increases at our 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

2000 Non-Management Stock Option Plan  

In July 2000, our board of directors adopted the 2000 Non-Management Stock Option Plan, or the 2000 Plan, which provided 
for the grant of non-statutory stock options to our employees, advisors and consultants of eGain. Options under the 2000 Plan were 
granted  at  a  price  not  less  than  85%  of  the  fair  market  value  of  the  common  stock  on  the  date  of  grant.  Our  board  of  directors 
determines the fair market value (as defined in the 2000 Plan) of the common stock, date of grant and vesting schedules of the options 
granted. The options generally vest ratably over 4 years and expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant. This plan expired in 
July 2010 and there are no further options available to grant under the 2000 Plan.

1998 Stock Plan  

In June 1998, our board of directors adopted the 1998 Stock Plan, or the 1998 Plan, which provides for grant of stock options to 
eligible participants. Options granted under the 1998 Plan are either incentive stock options or non-statutory stock options. Incentive 
stock options may be granted to employees with exercise prices of no less than the fair value of the common stock and non-statutory 
options may be granted to eligible participants at exercise prices of no less than 85% of the fair value of the common stock on the date 
of grant. Our board of directors determines the fair market value (as defined in the 1998 Plan) of the common stock, date of grant and 
vesting schedules of the options granted. The options generally vest ratably over a period of four years and expire no later than 10 
years  from  the  date  of  grant.  Options  are  generally  exercisable  upon  grant,  subject  to  our  repurchase  rights  until  vested.  This  plan 
expired in November 2010 and there are no further options available to grant under the 1998 Plan.

holders,  had  they  exercised  their  options  on  June 30,  2014.  The  total  intrinsic  value  of  stock  options  exercised  during  fiscal  years 
2014, 2013 and 2012 was $3.8 million, $3.0 million, and $691,000 , respectively.  

Stock-Based Compensation  

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense

We utilized the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating the fair value of the stock-based compensation of options granted. 
All shares of our common stock issued pursuant to our stock option plans are only issued out of an authorized reserve of shares of 
common  stock,  which  were  previously  registered  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  on  a  registration  statement  on 
Form S-8.

During  the  fiscal  years  ended  June 30,  2014,  2013  and  2012  there  were  583,250,  338,550,  and  720,300  options  granted, 

respectively, with a weighted-average fair value of $5.93, $4.05, and $3.21 , respectively, using the following assumptions:  

Dividend yield ......................................................................... 
Expected volatility .................................................................. 
Average risk-free interest rate .................................................

The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that we have never paid cash dividends and have no present intention to pay cash 
dividends.  We  determined  the  appropriate  measure  of  expected  volatility  by  reviewing  historic  volatility  in  the  share  price  of  our 
common stock, as adjusted for certain events that management deemed to be non-recurring and non-indicative of future events. The 
risk-free  interest  rate  is  derived  from  the  average U.S.  Treasury  Strips  rate  with  maturities  approximating  the  expected  lives of  the 
awards during the period, which approximate the rate in effect at the time of the grant.  

We base our estimate of expected life of a stock option on the historical exercise behavior, and cancellations of all past option 
grants  made  by  the  company  during  the  time  period  which  its  equity  shares  have  been  publicly  traded,  the  contractual  term  of  the 
option, the vesting period and the expected remaining term of the outstanding options.  

Total  compensation  cost,  net  of  forfeitures,  for  all  options  granted  but  not  yet  vested  as  of  June 30,  2014  was  $2.1  million, 

which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 1.48 years.  

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES  

Leases 

We lease our facilities under non-cancelable operating leases that expire on various dates through fiscal year 2022. On May 14, 
2014,  we  entered  into  the  First  Amendment  to  the  office  lease  for  our  Sunnyvale  facility  to  extend  the  term  of  the  lease  through 
March, 2022 and lease additional space in the current premises.  The term of the additional space commences on August 5, 2015 and 
is  scheduled  to  expire  on  March  31,  2022.  As  part  of  the  lease  extension,  the  landlord  will  provide  the  company  with  a  tenant 
improvement  allowance  during  2015  through  2016  of  $411,000.  Our  lease  agreements  provide  us  with  the  option  to  renew.  We 
recognize rent expense, which includes fixed escalation amounts in addition to minimum lease payment, on a straight-line basis over 
each lease term. We lease certain equipment and software under operating and capital leases with various expiration dates.  

Rent  expense for facilities  under operating  leases was $1.4  million, $1.3  million,  and $1.1  million, for  the fiscal  years  ended 

June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Cloud Services  

We have agreements with third parties to provide co-location services for cloud operations that expire on various dates through 
fiscal year 2017. The agreement requires payment of a minimum amount per month in return for which the cloud services provider 
provides  co-location  services  with  certain guarantees  of  network  availability.  Rental  expense  for  co-location  centers  was  $882,000, 
$761,000, and $633,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Employee benefit plans  
Defined Contribution Plans  

We sponsor an employee savings and retirement plan, the 401(k) Plan, as allowed under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue 
Code.  The  401(k)  Plan  is  available  to  all  domestic  employees  who  meet  minimum  age  and  service  requirements,  and  provides 
employees  with  tax  deferred  salary  deductions  and  alternative  investment  options.  Employees  may  contribute  up  to  60%  of  their 
salary, subject to certain limitations. We, at the discretion of our board of directors, may contribute to the 401(k) Plan. We have not 
contributed  to  the  401(k)  Plan  since  its  inception.  We  also  have  a  defined  contribution  plan  related  to  our  foreign  subsidiaries. 
Amounts  expensed  under  these  plans  were  $395,000,  $356,000,  and  $280,000  for  the  fiscal  years  ended  June 30,  2014,  2013  and 
2012, respectively.  

Gratuity Plan—India  

In  accordance  with  Gratuity  Act  of  1972,  we  sponsor  a  defined  benefit  plan,  or  the  Gratuity  Plan,  for  all  of  our  Indian 
employees. The Gratuity Plan is required by local law, which provides a lump sum payment to vested employees upon retirement or 
termination  of  employment  in  an  amount  based  on  each  employee’s  salary  and  duration  of  employment  with  the  company.  The 
Gratuity Plan benefit cost for the year is calculated on an actuarial basis. Current service costs and actuarial gains or losses, or prior 
service cost, for the Gratuity Plan were insignificant for the fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012.  

Severance Pay – Italy  

We  accrue  a  severance  provision  and  pay  related  taxes  to  local  governmental  agencies  consistent  with  local  regulatory 

requirements. Total severance plan expenses were insignificant for the fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012.  

Warranty  

We  generally  warrant  that  the  program  portion  of  our  software  will  perform  substantially  in  accordance  with  certain 
specifications for a period up to one year from the date of delivery. Our liability for a breach of this warranty is either a return of the 
license fee or providing a fix, patch, work-around or replacement of the software.  

We  also  provide  standard  warranties  against  and  indemnification  for  the  potential  infringement  of  third  party  intellectual 
property rights to our customers relating to the use of our products, as well as indemnification agreements with certain officers and 
employees under which we may be required to indemnify such persons for liabilities arising out of their duties to us. The terms of such 
obligations vary. Generally, the maximum obligation is the amount permitted by law.  

Historically, costs related to these warranties have not been significant. However, we cannot guarantee that a warranty reserve 

will not become necessary in the future.  

Indemnification  

We have also agreed to indemnify our directors and executive officers for costs associated with any fees, expenses, judgments, 
fines  and  settlement  amounts  incurred  by  any  of  these  persons  in  any  action  or  proceeding  to  which  any  of  those  persons  is,  or  is 
threatened to be, made a party by reason of the person’s service as a director or officer, including any action by us, arising out of that 
person’s services as our director or officer or that person’s services provided to any other company or enterprise at our request.

Transfer pricing  

We have received transfer-pricing assessments from tax authorities with regard to transfer pricing issues for certain fiscal years, 
which  we  have  appealed  with  the  appropriate  authority.  We  review  the  status  of  each  significant  matter  and  assess  its  potential 
financial exposure. We believe that such assessments are without merit and would not have a significant impact on our consolidated 
financial statements.  

8. LITIGATION  

On  May 20,  2013,  we  filed  suit  against  Pragmatus  Telecom,  LLC  (“Pragmatus”)  in  the  United  States  District  of  Delaware 
seeking a declaratory judgment that our products and services do not infringe directly or indirectly three patents purportedly owned by 
Pragmatus and that the claims of the Pragmatus patents are invalid. Pragmatus previously asserted these patents against certain of our 
customers. Discovery continues and the matter is currently pending.  

On  May  17,  2013,  we  filed  suit  against  Lodsys  Group,  LLC  (“Lodsys”)  in  the  United  States  District  Court  for  the  Eastern 
District  of  Texas  seeking  a  declaratory  judgment  that  our  products  and  services  do  not  infringe  directly  or  indirectly  two  patents 
purportedly owned by Lodsys and that the claims of the Lodsys patents are invalid. Lodsys previously asserted these patents against 
certain of our customers. The matter was settled on December 18, 2013. We entered into a settlement agreement which among other 
items provides a license to the Lodsys patents.  

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various legal proceedings and claims related to alleged infringement of 
third-party patents and other intellectual property rights, commercial, corporate and securities, labor and employment, wage and hour, 
and other claims. We have been, and may in the future be, put on notice and/or sued by third parties for alleged infringement of their 
proprietary rights, including patent infringement. 

We evaluate all claims and lawsuits with respect to their potential merits, our potential defenses and counterclaims, settlement or 
litigation potential and the expected effect on us. Our technologies may be subject to injunction if they are found to infringe the rights 
of a third party. In addition, our agreements require us to indemnify our customers for third-party intellectual property infringement 
claims, which could increase the cost to us of an adverse ruling on such a claim.  

9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT  

ASC  820,  Fair  Value  Measurement  and  Disclosures,  defines  fair  value,  establishes  a  framework  for  measuring  fair  value  of 
assets and liabilities, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be 
received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the assets or liabilities in an orderly 
transaction  between  market  participants  on  the  measurement  date.  Subsequent  changes  in  fair  value  of  these  financial  assets  and 
liabilities are recognized in earnings or other comprehensive income when they occur. ASC 820 applies whenever other statements 
require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value.  

ASC  820  includes  a  fair  value  hierarchy,  of  which  the  first  two  are  considered  observable  and  the  last  unobservable,  that  is 
intended to increase the consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. Valuation techniques used 
to  measure fair value  must  maximize  the use  of observable  inputs  and  minimize  the use  of unobservable  inputs. Observable  inputs 
reflect  assumptions  market  participants  would  use  in  pricing  an  asset  or  liability  based  on  market  data  obtained  from  independent 
sources while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing based upon their own market assumptions.  

The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:  

Level 1  –  instrument  valuations  are  obtained  from  real-time  quotes  for  transactions  in  active  exchange  markets  involving  identical 

assets.  

Level 2 – instrument valuations are obtained from readily-available pricing sources for comparable instruments.  

Level 3 – instrument valuations are obtained without observable market value and require a high level of judgment to determine the 

fair value.

10. SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM  

On  September 14,  2009,  we  announced  that  our  board  of  directors  approved  a  repurchase  program  under  which  we  may 
purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of our common stock. The duration of the repurchase program is open-ended. Under the program, we 
purchase shares of common stock from time to time through the open market and privately negotiated transactions at prices deemed 
appropriate by management. The repurchase is funded by cash on hand. There were no shares repurchased during fiscal years 2014 
and 2013.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS  

On August 4, 2014, we filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing that we entered into a Share 
Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with Exony Limited (“Exony”) to acquire all the outstanding share capital of Exony. 
Exony  is  a  provider  of  innovative  contact  center  software  and  voice  analytics.  The  acquisition  of  Exony  extends  the  Company’s 
platform  with  contact  center  management,  reporting  and  analytics  capabilities.  Under  the  terms  of  the  Purchase  Agreement  with 
Exony described in the Form 8-K, we agreed to issue 1,209,308 shares of our common stock and approximately $8 million in cash to 
the  shareholders  of  Exony  at  the  closing  subject  to  adjustment  as  defined  in  the  Purchase  Agreement.  These  shares  will  be  issued 
pursuant  to  an  exemption  under  Regulation  S  or  Regulation  D  promulgated  under  the  Securities  Act  of  1933,  as  amended.  The 
purchase price allocation for the acquisition and pro forma financial information are not yet available.

DISCLOSURE  

None.  

ITEM  9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES  

Evaluation  of  Disclosure  Controls  and  Procedures. We  maintain  “disclosure  controls  and  procedures,”  as  such  term  is 
defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information 
required  to  be  disclosed  by  us  in  reports  that  we  file  or  submit  under  the  Exchange  Act  is  recorded,  processed,  summarized,  and 
reported  within  the  time  periods  specified  in  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  rules  and  forms,  and  that  such  information  is 
accumulated  and  communicated  to  our  management,  including  our  Chief  Executive  Officer  and  Chief  Financial  Officer,  as 
appropriate,  to  allow  timely  decisions  regarding  required  disclosure.  In  designing  and  evaluating  our  disclosure  controls  and 
procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide 
only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Our disclosure controls 
and  procedures  have  been  designed  to  meet  reasonable  assurance  standards.  Additionally,  in  designing  disclosure  controls  and 
procedures,  our  management  necessarily  was  required  to  apply  its  judgment  in  evaluating  the  cost-benefit  relationship  of  possible 
disclosure  controls  and  procedures.  The  design  of  any  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  also  is  based  in  part  upon  certain 
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated 
goals under all potential future conditions.  

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Chief Executive Officer 
and  Chief  Financial  Officer  have  concluded  that,  as  of  June 30,  2014,  our  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  were  effective  at  the 
reasonable assurance level.  

Changes  in  Internal  Controls. There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-
15(f)  under  the  Exchange  Act)  that  occurred  during  our  last  fiscal  quarter  that  has  materially  affected,  or  is  reasonably  likely  to 
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  

Management’s  Annual  Report  on  Internal  Control  Over  Financial  Reporting. Our  management  is  responsible  for 
establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-
15(f). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections 
of any evaluation of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes 
in  conditions,  or  that  the  degree  of  compliance  with  the  policies  or  procedures  may  deteriorate.  Our  management,  with  the 
participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal 
control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (1992 Framework) issued by the 
Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  of  the  Treadway  Commission.  Based  on  our  evaluation  under  the  framework  in  Internal 
Control—Integrated Framework (1992 Framework), our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was 
effective as of June 30, 2014.  

Our  independent  registered  public  accounting  firm,  Burr  Pilger  Mayer,  Inc.,  which  audited  our  consolidated  financial 
statements  in  this  Annual  Report  on  Form  10-K,  independently  assessed  the  effectiveness  of  the  Company’s  internal  control  over 
financial reporting. Burr Pilger Mayer, Inc. has issued an attestation report, which appears as part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. 

ITEM 9B.  OTHER INFORMATION  

On August 4, 2014, we filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing that we entered into a Share 
Purchase  Agreement  (“Purchase  Agreement”)  with  Exony  Limited  (“Exony”).  Under  the  terms  of  the  Purchase  Agreement  with 
Exony described in the Form 8-K, the Company agreed to issue 1,209,308 shares of the Company’s common stock and approximately 
$8 million in cash to the shareholders of Exony at the closing. These shares will be issued pursuant to an exemption under Regulation 
S or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM  

Board of Directors and Stockholders  
eGain Corporation 
Sunnyvale, California 

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of eGain Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of 
June 30, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (1992 Framework) issued by the Committee 
of  Sponsoring  Organizations  of  the  Treadway  Commission  (“COSO”).  The  Company’s  management  is  responsible  for  maintaining 
effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting 
included  in  the  accompanying  Management’s  Annual  Report  on  Internal  Control  over  Financial  Reporting.  Our  responsibility  is  to 
express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.  

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 
Those  standards  require  that  we  plan  and  perform  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  effective  internal  control 
over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over 
financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of 
internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. 
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.  

A  company’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  is  a  process  designed  to  provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  the 
reliability  of  financial  reporting  and  the  preparation  of  financial  statements  for  external  purposes  in  accordance  with  generally 
accepted  accounting  principles.  A  company’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  includes  those  policies  and  procedures  that 
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the 
assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial 
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being 
made  only  in  accordance  with  authorizations  of  management  and  directors  of  the  company;  and  (3) provide  reasonable  assurance 
regarding  prevention  or  timely  detection  of  unauthorized  acquisition,  use,  or  disposition  of  the  company’s  assets  that  could  have  a 
material effect on the financial statements.  

Because  of  its  inherent  limitations,  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  may  not  prevent  or  detect  misstatements.  Also, 
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of 
changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.  

In  our  opinion,  eGain  Corporation  and  its  subsidiaries  maintained,  in  all  material  respects,  effective  internal  control  over 
financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (1992 Framework) 
by COSO.  

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the 
consolidated  balance  sheets  of  eGain  Corporation  and  its  subsidiaries  as  of  June  30,  2014  and  2013,  and  the  related  consolidated 
statements of operations, comprehensive income / (loss), stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period 
ended June 30, 2014, and the related financial statement schedule and our report dated September 12, 2014 expressed an unqualified 
opinion on those consolidated financial statements and the related financial statement schedule.
