PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

June 7, 2017

INFORMATION CONCERNING SOLICITATION AND VOTING

General

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors
(the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”) of ELECTRONICS FOR IMAGING, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on June 7, 2017 at 9 a.m., Pacific Time
(the “Annual Meeting”), or at any adjournment or postponement thereof. The Annual Meeting will be held at the
Company’s corporate headquarters, 6750 Dumbarton Circle, Fremont, California 94555. The Company intends
to mail this Proxy Statement and accompanying proxy card on or about April 28, 2017 to stockholders entitled to
vote at the Annual Meeting.

At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders of the Company will be asked: (1) to elect six (6) directors to hold
office until the next annual meeting or until their successors are duly elected and qualified; (2) to provide a non-
binding advisory vote to approve the Company’s executive compensation program; (3) to provide an advisory
vote to determine whether a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation should occur every one, two
or three years; (4) to approve the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan; (5) to ratify the appointment of the Company’s
independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017;
and (6) to transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment or
postponement thereof. All proxies that are properly completed, signed and returned to the Company or properly
submitted electronically or by telephone prior to the Annual Meeting will be voted.

Voting Rights and Outstanding Shares

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 24, 2017 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to
receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, the Company had outstanding and
entitled to vote 46,467,840 shares of common stock. The holders of a majority of the shares outstanding and
entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting constitute a quorum. Therefore, the Company will need at least
23,233,921 shares entitled to vote present in person, by telephone or by proxy at the Annual Meeting for a
quorum to exist. Each holder of record of common stock on the Record Date will be entitled to one vote per share
on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders. There is no cumulative voting for the election of directors.

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will

separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions, withheld votes, and broker non-votes.
Abstentions, withheld votes, and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum
for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions represent a stockholder’s affirmative choice to
decline to vote on a proposal. Broker non-votes occur when a broker, bank, or other nominee holding shares for a
beneficial owner does not vote on a particular matter because such broker, bank, or other nominee does not have
discretionary authority to vote on that matter and has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner.
Brokers, banks, and other nominees typically do not have discretionary authority to vote on non-routine matters.
Under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), as amended (the “NYSE Rules”), which apply
to all NYSE-licensed brokers, brokers have discretionary authority to vote on routine matters when they have not
received timely voting instructions from the beneficial owner.

Stockholders’ choices for Proposal One (election of directors) are limited to “for” and “withhold.” A

plurality of the shares of common stock voting in person or by proxy is required to elect each of the six

1

(6) nominees for director under Proposal One. A plurality means that the six (6) nominees receiving the largest
number of votes cast (votes “for”) will be elected. Because the election of directors under Proposal One is
considered to be a non-routine matter under the NYSE Rules, if you do not instruct your broker, bank, or other
nominee on how to vote the shares in your account for Proposal One, brokers will not be permitted to exercise
their voting authority and uninstructed shares may constitute broker non-votes. Abstentions and broker non-votes
will not be counted in determining the outcome of Proposal One because the election of directors is based on the
votes actually cast. Withheld votes will be considered for purposes of the Company’s “majority withheld vote”
policy as set forth in the Company’s Board of Directors Guidelines (the “Board of Directors Guidelines”) and as
discussed further under Proposal One. The Board of Directors Guidelines can be found at the Company’s website
at www.efi.com.

The affirmative vote of a majority of shares entitled to vote that are present in person or by proxy is required

to approve Proposal Two (advisory vote on executive compensation) and Proposal Four (approval of the 2017
Equity Incentive Plan). Because the votes under Proposal Two and Proposal Four are considered to be non-
routine matters under the NYSE Rules, if you do not instruct your broker, bank, or other nominee on how to vote
the shares in your account for Proposal Two or Proposal Four, brokers will not be permitted to exercise their
voting authority and uninstructed shares may constitute broker non-votes. Abstentions will have the same effect
as negative votes on these proposals because they represent votes that are present, but not cast. Although broker
non-votes are considered present for quorum purposes, they are not considered entitled to vote, and will not be
counted in determining the outcome of Proposal Two or the outcome of Proposal Four.

Stockholders’ choices for Proposal Three (frequency of advisory vote on executive compensation) are

limited to “1 year,” “2 years,” “3 years” and “abstain.” If no option receives the affirmative vote of at least a
majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal at the
Annual Meeting, then the Board of Directors will consider the option receiving the highest number of votes as
the preferred option of the stockholders. Abstentions will not be counted in determining the frequency option
receiving the highest number of votes. Because the advisory vote under Proposal Three is considered to be a non-
routine matter under the NYSE Rules, if you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote
the shares in your account for Proposal Three, brokers will not be permitted to exercise their voting authority and
uninstructed shares may constitute broker non-votes. Broker non-votes will not be counted in determining the
outcome of Proposal Three.

The affirmative vote of a majority of shares entitled to vote that are present in person or by proxy is required

to ratify the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2017 under Proposal Five (ratification of appointment of auditors). Abstentions will have the same
effect as negative votes on this proposal because they represent votes that are present, but not cast. Proposal Five
is considered to be a routine matter and, accordingly, if you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee
on how to vote the shares in your account for Proposal Five, brokers will be permitted to exercise their
discretionary authority to vote for the ratification of the appointment of auditors.

Please be advised that Proposal Two (advisory vote on executive compensation), Proposal Three (frequency

of advisory vote on executive compensation) and Proposal Five (ratification of appointment of auditors) are
advisory only and not binding on the Company. Our Board of Directors will consider the outcome of the vote on
each of these proposals in considering what action, if any, should be taken in response to the advisory vote by
stockholders.

Adjournment of Meeting

In the event that sufficient votes in favor of the proposals are not received by the date of the Annual

Meeting, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Annual Meeting to permit
further solicitation of proxies. Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of shares
entitled to vote present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting.

Submission of Proxies; Internet and Telephone Voting

If you hold shares as a registered stockholder in your own name, you should complete, sign and date the

enclosed proxy card as promptly as possible and return it using the enclosed envelope. If your completed proxy
card is received prior to or at the Annual Meeting, your shares will be voted in accordance with your voting
instructions. If you sign and return your proxy card but do not give voting instructions, your shares will be voted
FOR (1) the election of the Company’s six (6) nominees as directors; (2) the advisory vote on executive
compensation; (3) approval of the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan; and (4) the ratification of the appointment of the
independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017;
“1YEAR” for the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation; and (iii) as the proxy holders deem
advisable, in their discretion, on other matters that may properly come before the Annual Meeting. If you hold
shares through a bank or brokerage firm, the bank or brokerage firm will provide you with separate voting
instructions on a form you will receive from them. Many such firms make telephone or internet voting available,
but the specific processes available will depend on those firms’ individual arrangements.

Solicitation

The cost of preparing, assembling, printing, and mailing the Proxy Statement, the Notice of Annual

Meeting, and the enclosed proxy, as well as the cost of soliciting proxies relating to the Company’s proposals for
the Annual Meeting, will be borne by the Company. The Company will request banks, brokers, dealers, and
voting trustees or other nominees to solicit their customers who are beneficial owners of shares listed of record in
names of nominees and will reimburse such nominees for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such
solicitations. The original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by telephone, facsimile, telegram,
email and personal solicitation by directors, officers and regular employees of the Company or, at the Company’s
request, a proxy solicitation firm. No additional compensation will be paid to directors, officers or other regular
employees of the Company for such services, but a proxy solicitation firm will be paid a customary fee if it
renders solicitation services.

Revocability of Proxies

Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the person giving it at any time before its

use by delivering to the Secretary of the Company at the Company’s principal executive office, 6750 Dumbarton
Circle, Fremont, California 94555, a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or
by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself,
revoke a proxy.

Stockholder Proposals To Be Presented at Next Annual Meeting

The deadline for submitting a stockholder proposal for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and

form of proxy for the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2018, pursuant to Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) Rule 14a-8, is currently expected to be December 29, 2017. The Company’s
amended and restated bylaws (the “Bylaws”) also establish a deadline with respect to discretionary voting for
submission of stockholder proposals that are not intended to be included in the Company’s proxy statement. For
nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors and other business to be properly brought before
the 2018 annual meeting by a stockholder, notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal
executive offices of the Company not earlier than the close of business on February 7, 2018 and not later than the
close of business on March 9, 2018 (the “Discretionary Vote Deadline”). These deadlines are subject to change if
the date of the 2018 annual meeting is more than 30 calendar days before or more than 60 calendar days after the
date of the Annual Meeting. If a stockholder gives notice of such proposal after the Discretionary Vote Deadline,
the Company’s proxy holders will be allowed to use their discretionary voting authority to vote the shares they
represent as the Board of Directors may recommend, which may include a vote against the stockholder proposal
when and if the proposal is raised at the Company’s 2018 annual meeting.

Additional Copies

The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 (the “Annual

Report”) will be mailed concurrently with the mailing of the Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement to
all stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. Except to the extent expressly
incorporated by reference into this Proxy Statement, the Annual Report does not constitute, and should not be
considered, a part of this proxy solicitation material.

If you would like a copy of the Annual Report, the Company will provide one to you free of charge
upon your written request to Investor Relations at Electronics For Imaging, Inc., 6750 Dumbarton Circle,
Fremont, California 94555.

PROPOSAL ONE

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Nominees

There are six (6) nominees for election at the Annual Meeting. Each nominee currently serves as a director

and, was elected by stockholders at the 2016 annual meeting. Votes cannot be cast, whether in person or by
proxy, for more individuals than the six (6) nominees named in this Proxy Statement. Following the Annual
Meeting, the Board of Directors will consist of six (6) members. Although fewer nominees are named than the
number fixed by the Bylaws, proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of
nominees named. The Board may elect additional members in the future in accordance with the Bylaws.

Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them for the six

(6) nominees named below. In the event that any Board of Director’s nominee is unable or declines to serve as a
director at the time of the Annual Meeting, the proxies will be voted for the nominee who shall be designated by
the present Board of Directors to fill the vacancy. In the event that additional persons are nominated for election
as directors by the present Board of Directors, the proxy holders intend to vote all proxies received by them in
such a manner as will assure the election of as many of the nominees listed below as possible. Each person has
been recommended for nomination by the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors and
has been nominated by the Board of Directors for election. Each person nominated for election has agreed to
serve, and the Company is not aware of any nominee who will be unable or will decline to serve as a director.
The term of office for each person elected as a director will continue until the next annual meeting of
stockholders or until his successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier death,
resignation or removal.

As set forth in the Company’s Board of Directors Guidelines and the Nominating and Governance
Committee Charter, the Company has a majority voting policy for the election of directors in an uncontested
election. Pursuant to this policy, in the event that a nominee for director in an uncontested election receives more
“withheld” votes for his or her election than “for” votes, the director must submit a resignation to the Board of
Directors. The Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors will evaluate and make a
recommendation to the Board of Directors with respect to the offered resignation. The Board of Directors will
take action on the recommendation within 90 days following certification of the stockholder vote. No director
who tenders a resignation may participate in the Nominating and Governance Committee’s or the Board of
Directors’ consideration of the matter. The Company will publicly disclose the Board of Directors’ decision
including, as applicable, the reasons for rejecting a resignation.

approves the engagement of and the services to be performed by the Company’s independent auditors. The Board
of Directors has determined that all members of the Audit Committee are “independent” as that term is defined in

7

Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules (the “NASDAQ Rules”) and also meet the additional criteria for
independence of Audit Committee members set forth in Section 10A(m) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In addition, the Board of Directors has determined that each member of
the Audit Committee is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the SEC.

The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s Ethics Program, which presently includes, among other
things, the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, the Company’s Code of Ethics for the Management
Team, the Company’s Code of Ethics for the Accounting and Finance Team and the Company’s Code of Ethics
for the Sales Team (collectively, the “Codes”), an internal audit function responsible for receiving and
investigating complaints, a 24-hour global toll-free hotline and an internal website whereby employees can
anonymously submit complaints via email. The Company’s Codes can be found on the Company’s website
at www.efi.com. As further set forth below, the Audit Committee also oversees the Company’s risk assessment
function.

We intend to disclose any amendment to the Codes, or waiver from, certain provisions of the Codes as
applicable for our directors and executive officers, including our principal executive officer, principal financial
officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions, by posting such
information on our website, at the address specified above.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee currently consists of Directors Cogan (Chairman) and Maydan. The

Compensation Committee held ten (10) meetings in 2016. The Board of Directors has determined that all
members of the Compensation Committee are “independent” as that term is defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the
NASDAQ Rules and also meet the additional criteria for independence of Compensation Committee members set
forth in Rule 5605(d)(2) of the NASDAQ Rules. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves the
Company’s executive compensation policy, administers the Company’s stock plans and considers compensation
consultant, counsel and other adviser conflict of interest. The Compensation Committee also reviews the
Compensation Discussion and Analysis contained in the Company’s proxy statements and prepares and approves
the Compensation Committee Report for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statements.

Nominating and Governance Committee

The Nominating and Governance Committee currently consists of Directors Cogan, Kashnow (Chairman)

and Maydan. The Nominating and Governance Committee held two (2) meetings in 2016. The Board of
Directors has determined that all members of the Nominating and Governance Committee are “independent” as
that term is defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Rules. The Nominating and Governance Committee
develops and recommends governance principles, recommends director nominees to the Board of Directors and
considers the resignation offers of any nominee for director, in accordance with its charter and the Company’s
Board of Directors Guidelines.

Pursuant to our Board of Directors Guidelines and the charter of the Nominating and Governance

Committee, the Nominating and Governance Committee oversees an annual evaluation of the performance of the
Board and each of its committees. The evaluation process is designed to facilitate ongoing, systematic
examination of the Board’s effectiveness and accountability, and to identify opportunities to improve its
operations and procedures. In April 2017, the Board completed an evaluation process focusing on the
effectiveness of the performance of the Board as a whole. Each standing committee conducted a separate
evaluation of its own performance and of the adequacy of its charter and reported to the Board on the results of
its evaluation.

Consideration of Director Nominees

Stockholder Nominees

The policy of the Nominating and Governance Committee is to consider properly submitted stockholder
nominations for candidates for membership on the Board of Directors as described below under “Identifying and
Evaluating Nominees for Directors.” Properly communicated stockholder recommendations will be considered in
the same manner as recommendations received from other sources. In evaluating such nominations, the
Nominating and Governance Committee seeks to achieve a balance of knowledge, experience and capability on
the Board of Directors and to address the membership criteria set forth under “Director Qualifications.”

Stockholders may recommend individuals for consideration by submitting the materials set forth below to
the Company addressed to the Nominating and Governance Committee at the Company’s corporate headquarters.

notice, as they appear in the Company’s books, and of the other Proposing Persons (as defined below), (2) any
Disclosable Interests (as defined in the Bylaws) of the stockholder(s) providing the notice (or, if different, the

his or her respective affiliates and associates and any other persons with whom such proposed nominee (or any of
his or her respective affiliates and associates) is Acting in Concert (as defined below), on the other hand,
including, without limitation, all information that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 under
Regulation S-K if such stockholder or beneficial owner, as applicable, and/or such Proposing Person were the
“registrant” for purposes of such rule and the proposed nominee were a director or executive officer of such
registrant, and (6) such other information (including one or more accurately completed and executed
questionnaires and executed and delivered agreements) as may reasonably be required by the Company to
determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director of the Company or that
could be material to a reasonable stockholder’s understanding of the independence or lack of independence of
such proposed nominee.

For purposes of the information required to be disclosed in the written materials described above, the term
“Proposing Person” means (i) the stockholder providing the notice of the nomination proposed to be made at the
meeting, (ii) the beneficial owner, if different, on whose behalf the nomination proposed to be made at the
meeting is made, (iii) any affiliate or associate of such beneficial owner (as such terms are defined in Rule 12b-2

A person shall be deemed to be “Acting in Concert” with another person for purposes of the information

required to be disclosed in the written materials described above if such person knowingly acts (whether or not
pursuant to an express agreement, arrangement or understanding) in concert with, or towards a common goal
relating to the management, governance or control of the Company in parallel with, such other person where
(i) each person is conscious of the other person’s conduct or intent and this awareness is an element in their
decision-making process and (ii) at least one additional factor suggests that such persons intend to act in concert
or in parallel, which such additional factors may include, without limitation, exchanging information (whether

9

publicly or privately), attending meetings, conducting discussions, or making or soliciting invitations to act in
concert or in parallel; provided, that a person shall not be deemed to be Acting in Concert with any other person
solely as a result of the solicitation or receipt of revocable proxies from such other person in connection with a
public proxy solicitation pursuant to, and in accordance with, the Exchange Act. A person who is Acting in
Concert with another person shall be deemed to be Acting in Concert with any third party who is also acting in
concert with such other person.

Any director nominations proposed by stockholders for consideration by the Nominating and Governance

Committee should be addressed to:

Director Qualifications

The Nominating and Governance Committee has established the following minimum criteria for evaluating

prospective Board of Director candidates:

• Reputation for integrity, strong moral character and adherence to high ethical standards.

• Holds or has held a generally recognized position of leadership in the community and/or chosen field

of endeavor, and has demonstrated high levels of accomplishment.

• Demonstrated business acumen and experience, and ability to exercise sound business judgment and

common sense in matters that relate to the current and long-term objectives of the Company.

• Ability to read and understand basic financial statements and other financial information pertaining to

the Company.

• Commitment to understand the Company and its business, industry and strategic objectives.

• Commitment and ability to regularly attend and participate in meetings of the Board of Directors,
Board Committees and stockholders, the number of other company boards on which the candidate
serves and the ability to generally fulfill all responsibilities as a director of the Company.

• Willingness to represent and act in the interests of all stockholders of the Company rather than the

interests of a particular group.

• Good health and ability to serve.

•

For prospective non-employee directors, independence under applicable standards of the SEC and the
NASDAQ Rules, and the absence of any conflict of interest (whether due to a business or personal
relationship) or legal impediment to, or restriction on, the nominee serving as a director.

• Willingness to accept the nomination to serve as a director of the Company.

Other Factors for Potential Consideration

The Nominating and Governance Committee will also consider the following factors in connection with its

evaluation of each prospective nominee:

• Whether the prospective nominee will foster a diversity of skills and experiences.

• Whether the nominee possesses the requisite education, training and experience to qualify as

“financially literate” or as an “audit committee financial expert” under applicable rules of the SEC and
the NASDAQ Rules.

10

• Composition of the Board of Directors and whether the prospective nominee will add to or complement

the Board of Director’s existing strengths.

The Nominating and Governance Committee does not have a formal policy with respect to diversity;
however, the Board of Directors and the Nominating and Governance Committee believe that it is essential that
our directors represent diverse viewpoints, skills, education and professional experience. In considering
candidates for the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers the entirety of each
candidate’s credentials in the context of these standards.

All of our directors bring to the Board of Directors executive leadership experience derived from their service

as executives and, in most cases, chief executive officers of large corporations. As a group, they bring extensive
board experience and several decades of diverse and extensive business and technical experience. The process
undertaken by the Nominating and Governance Committee in identifying and evaluating qualified director
candidates is described below. Certain individual qualifications and skills of our directors that contribute to the
Board of Directors’ effectiveness as a whole are described above, under each director’s biographical information.

y
x
o
r
P

Identifying and Evaluating Nominees for Directors

The Nominating and Governance Committee initiates the process by preparing a slate of potential

candidates who, based on their biographical information and other information available to the Nominating and
Governance Committee, appear to meet the criteria specified above and/or who have specific qualities, skills or
experience being sought, based on input from the full Board of Directors.

• Outside Advisors.

The Nominating and Governance Committee may engage a third party search firm

or other advisors to assist in identifying prospective nominees.

• Nomination of Incumbent Directors.

The re-nomination of existing directors should not be viewed as

automatic, but should be based on continuing qualification under the criteria set forth above.

For incumbent directors standing for re-election, the Nominating and Governance Committee will
assess the incumbent director’s performance during his or her term, including the number of meetings
attended, level of participation and overall contribution to the Company, the number of other company
boards on which the individual serves, composition of the Board of Directors at that time and any
changed circumstances affecting the individual director which may bear on his or her ability to
continue to serve on the Board of Directors.

• Management Directors.

The number of officers or employees of the Company serving at any time on

the Board of Directors should be limited such that, at all times, a majority of the directors is
“independent” under applicable standards of the SEC and the NASDAQ rules.

After reviewing appropriate biographical information and qualifications, first-time candidates will be
interviewed by at least one member of the Nominating and Governance Committee and by the Company’s Chief
Executive Officer. Upon completion of the above procedures, the Nominating and Governance Committee will
determine the list of potential candidates to be recommended to the full Board of Directors for nomination at an
annual meeting or appointment to the Board of Directors between annual meetings. The Board of Directors will
select the slate of nominees only from candidates identified, screened and approved by the Nominating and
Governance Committee.

In accordance with the Company’s “majority withheld vote” policy, the Nominating and Governance
Committee will also consider the resignation offer of any nominee for director who, in an uncontested election,
receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election than votes “for” such election, and
recommend to the Board of Directors the action it deems appropriate to be taken with respect to such offered
resignation.

The Board of Directors chair retainer is paid annually in the form of an RSU grant on the first trading day of
the year calculated as $30,000 divided by the closing stock price on the trading day preceding the annual
grant date. This RSU grant will vest in one installment on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to
the director’s continued service through the vesting date.

The Company reimburses each non-employee director for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with
attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors and of the Board Committees, subject to the director’s
continued service through the vesting date.

Equity Compensation.

Equity awards may be granted to the non-employee directors under the Company’s

stock incentive plans from time to time. Each non-employee director received an equity award grant of 6,500
RSUs on November 8, 2016. These RSUs vest in one installment on the first anniversary of the grant date.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS, RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS, DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE,
LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE AND RISK OVERSIGHT

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

As permitted under Delaware law, and pursuant to the Bylaws, the Company’s amended and restated
certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and the indemnification agreements that the
Company has entered into with its current and former executive officers, directors, and general counsel, the
Company is required, subject to certain limited qualifications, to indemnify its executive officers, directors and
general counsel for certain events or occurrences while the executive officer, director or general counsel is or was
serving in such capacity at the Company’s request. The indemnification period covers all pertinent events and
occurrences during the executive officer’s, director’s, or general counsel’s lifetime. The maximum potential
amount of future payments the Company may be obligated to make under these indemnification agreements is
unlimited; however, the Company has director and officer insurance coverage that limits its exposure and may
enable the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid.

Related Party Transactions

The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving in advance any proposed related party
transactions as defined under Item 404 of Regulation S-K during 2016. The obligation of the Audit Committee to
review and approve in advance any proposed related party transaction is set forth in writing in the Charter of the
Audit Committee. Further, the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics provides that the nature of all

13

related party transactions must be fully disclosed to the Chief Financial Officer, and, if determined to be material
by the Chief Financial Officer, the Audit Committee must review and approve in writing in advance such related
party transactions.

The Company has previously entered into employment agreements with its named executive officers. These

agreements are described below under “Employment Agreements.”

There were no other related party transactions as defined under Item 404 of Regulation S-K during 2016.

Director Independence

The Board of Directors has determined that each of the non-employee directors is independent and that each

director who serves on each of its Board Committees is independent, as the term is defined by the applicable
rules of the SEC and the NASDAQ Rules.

Leadership Structure

Effective June 2007, the Board of Directors separated the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of

the Board. The Board of Directors believes that the designation of an independent Chairman of the Board
facilitates processes and controls that support a strong and independently functioning Board of Directors and
further strengthens the effectiveness of the Board of Directors’ decision-making and appropriate monitoring of
both compliance and performance. The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for setting the strategic direction
for the Company and the day to day leadership and performance of the Company, while the Chairman of the
Board presides at all meetings of the stockholders and the Board of Directors at which he or she is present;
establishes the agenda for each Board of Directors meeting; sets a schedule of an annual agenda, to the extent
foreseeable; calls and prepares the agenda for and presides over separate sessions of the independent directors;
acts as a liaison between the independent directors and the Company’s management and performs such other
powers and duties as may from time to time be assigned to him by the Board of Directors or as may be prescribed
by the Company’s bylaws. The independent Chairman of the Board is designated by the Board of Directors.
Mr. Cogan has served as our Chairman of the Board since June 2007. Because Mr. Cogan meets the criteria for
independence established by NASDAQ, he also presides over separate meetings for the independent directors.
The Board of Directors regularly observes such independent directors separate meeting time. The Board of
Directors will review from time to time the appropriateness of its leadership structure and implement any
changes at it may deem necessary.

Risk Oversight

On behalf of the Board of Directors, the Audit Committee plays a key role in the oversight of the
Company’s risk management function performed by independent Business Risk Services (“BRS”), under the
leadership of a BRS director (the “BRS Director”). BRS is an independent assessment function, responsible for
advising management and the Board of Directors, through its Audit Committee, on the Company’s system of
internal controls and management of business risks. BRS assists management and the Audit Committee in
fulfilling their control responsibilities by providing regular reports, based on BRS’ reviews, that address:
(i) compliance with laws, regulations, and internal policies and procedures; (ii) reliability of financial reporting;
and (iii) efficiency and effectiveness of operations. BRS fulfills its objectives by providing analyses,
assessments, recommendations, advice, and information to the management or the Audit Committee, as the case
may be.

Each year, BRS develops an annual project plan based on assessed business risks and aligned with the
Company’s control objectives. BRS fulfills its responsibilities according to such annual project plan approved by
the Audit Committee and reports on the results in the implementation of the plan at the meetings of the Audit
Committee. Certain risks or policies are also discussed by the Board of Directors. While compensated by the
Company, the BRS Director reports directly to the Chairman of the Company’s Audit Committee.

14

Stock Ownership

In February 2011, the Board of Directors adopted a stock ownership policy for the Company’s directors.

The policy was adopted to further align the interests of our stockholders and directors. According to the policy,
included in the Board of Directors’ Guidelines, directors are required to hold at least 10,000 shares of the
Company’s common stock within three years of first becoming a director, and continue holding such required
minimum as long as they continue serving as directors. In determining whether the stock ownership requirements
are met, the Board of Directors shall take into account a director’s beneficial ownership, including shares of
common stock held by the director, shares of common stock held in trust for the benefit of the director or his or
her immediate family members, vested or unvested restricted stock and vested or unvested RSUs. Vested and
unvested stock options are not taken into account in determining a director’s beneficial ownership. The
Nominating and Governance Committee may extend in its discretion the deadline for attainment of such stock
ownership level. As of April 17, 2017, all of our directors have met the stock ownership requirement.

P

Policy on Hedging and Pledging

The Company recognizes that hedging against losses in Company stock is not appropriate or acceptable

trading activity for individuals employed by or serving the Company. The Company has incorporated
prohibitions on various hedging activities within its insider trading policy, which policy applies to directors,
officers and employees. The policy prohibits all short sales of Company stock and any trading in derivatives
(such as put and call options) that relate to Company securities. The policy also prohibits pledging any Company
stock or equity awards as collateral for any margin account, or other form of credit arrangement, subject to a
limited exception where a person wishes to pledge Company securities as collateral for a loan (not including
margin debt) and clearly demonstrates in the sole discretion of the Company’s General Counsel that such person
has the financial capacity to repay the loan without resort to the pledged securities.

COMMUNICATION WITH THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Pursuant to the process established by the Board of Directors, stockholders who wish to communicate with

any member (or all members) of the Board of Directors should send such communications via regular mail
addressed to the Company’s Secretary, at Electronics For Imaging, Inc., 6750 Dumbarton Circle, Fremont,
California 94555. The Secretary will review each such communication and forward it to the appropriate member
or members of the Board of Directors as he deems appropriate.

The Company encourages its directors to attend the Annual Meeting. All directors attended the Company’s

last annual meeting.

NON-BINDING ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

PROPOSAL TWO

The Company is providing its stockholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote on the
compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s executive compensation
disclosure rules and as set forth in this proxy statement (including the compensation tables and narratives
accompanying those tables as well as in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis).

The Company’s goal for its executive compensation program is to attract, motivate, and retain a talented and
dynamic team of executives. The Company seeks to accomplish this goal in a way that rewards performance and
is aligned with its stockholders’ long-term interests. The Company believes that its executive compensation
program, which emphasizes long-term equity awards, satisfies this goal and is strongly aligned with the long-
term interests of its stockholders.

15

The Compensation Discussion and Analysis, beginning on page 33 of this Proxy Statement, describes the
Company’s executive compensation program and the decisions made by the Compensation Committee in 2016 in
more detail. Highlights of the program include:

• Our executive compensation program is designed to pay for performance—For 2016, the vast

majority of the target total direct compensation for our named executive officers was in the form of
incentive compensation with approximately 87% of the target total direct compensation for Mr. Gecht
and approximately 77% for Mr. Olin being in the form of incentive compensation tied to the
achievement of specific financial performance goals and/or our stock price. For these purposes, “target
total direct compensation” consists of the executive’s base salary, target annual incentive award, and
long-term incentive awards based on the grant date fair value of the award as determined in accordance
with ASC 718.

• Our annual incentive program is based entirely on objective, financial criteria and paid entirely in
stock—Our annual incentive program rewards our named executive officers for achievement of pre-
established financial goals that correlate to the long-term goals and strategy of the Company. Awards
under the program are granted as performance-based restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards that help
further align named executive officers’ interests with those of our stockholders. Each named executive
officer was provided with an opportunity to receive a “target” award and an “accelerator” annual
incentive award in the event that financial performance exceeded the targets. These awards are subject
to a cap on the maximum payout. We believe the performance goals established by the Compensation
Committee are rigorous and consistent with our pay-for-performance philosophy. The annual incentive
program awards for 2016 paid out at 86% of target and none of the accelerator awards vested.

• Two-thirds of the 2016 long-term incentive awards were performance based—Two-thirds of the

RSUs granted to our named executive officers in August 2016 under our long-term incentive program
were subject to performance-based vesting conditions (“performance-based RSUs”) and one-third of
the RSUs were subject to time-based vesting conditions (“time-based RSUs. The performance-based
RSUs consisted of an award that generally vests based on our revenue growth over a three-year period
(subject to a modifier based on our revenue growth over that period relative to a group of NASDAQ
listed companies with market capitalizations similar to ours) and a second award that generally vests
based on our non-GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”) growth over a three-year period (subject to a
modifier based on our cash from operations growth over that period). These awards are intended to
both provide a retention incentive (as the awards are also subject to continued employment
requirements) and enhance executives’ focus on specific financial goals considered important to the
Company’s long-term growth. We modified our approach in 2016 for measuring company performance
under our long term incentive awards to reflect feedback from stockholders that they would like to see
revenue growth measured relative to the growth generated by other comparable companies and to see
that our cash from operations is growing at a comparable rate to our non-GAAP EPS growth.

• We maintain executive stock ownership and holding period guidelines—To further align the interests
of our executives and our stockholders, in February 2017, our Board of Directors adopted revised stock
ownership guidelines applicable to all executives of the Company. The newly adopted guidelines
provide that the Company’s chief executive officer should own Company shares with a value of at least
five times his base salary and the Company’s other executives should own Company shares with a
value of at least two times their base salaries. In addition, our executive officers are required to hold
any vested shares they acquire pursuant to their equity awards granted on or after January 1, 2016 (after
satisfying applicable tax withholding) for at least three years (or, if earlier, termination of the
executive’s employment with us). As of April 24, 2017, each of our executive officers had satisfied the
applicable stock ownership requirements, which we believe helps to significantly align their interests
with those of our stockholders.

The Company believes the compensation program for the named executive officers is instrumental in
helping the Company achieve its financial performance. In 2016, the Company achieved record revenue, growing

16

to approximately $992 million, which represented an increase of approximately $109 million or 12% growth over
the prior year.

In accordance with the requirements of Section 14A of the Exchange Act (which was added by the Dodd-
Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act) and the related rules of the SEC, our Board of Directors
will request your advisory vote to approve the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this
Proxy Statement pursuant to the SEC’s executive compensation disclosure rules (which disclosure includes
the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables, and the narrative disclosures that
accompany the compensation tables) is hereby approved.

Vote Required

The approval of the executive compensation requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of
shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon, at the Annual
Meeting. As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding on the Company. However, the Compensation
Committee, which is responsible for designing and administering the Company’s executive compensation
program, values the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this proposal and will continue to
consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for named executive officers.

Our current policy is to provide stockholders with an opportunity to approve the compensation of the
Company’s named executive officers each year at the annual meeting of stockholders (the “say-on-pay” vote). It
is expected that the next say-on-pay vote will occur at the 2018 annual meeting. However, as noted in Proposal
Three below, the Company is asking stockholders to provide an advisory vote on the frequency of future say-on-
pay votes.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Company’s Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” approval of the executive compensation.

NON-BINDING ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES
ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

PROPOSAL THREE

As described in Proposal Two above, our stockholders are being provided the opportunity to cast an
advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers (referred to as a “say-on-pay” vote).

In 2011, our stockholders had the opportunity to cast an advisory vote on how often we should include a

say-on-pay vote in our proxy materials for our annual meetings of stockholders or special stockholder meetings
for which we must include executive compensation information in the proxy statement for that meeting (referred
to as a “say-on-frequency” vote). At our 2011 annual meeting, our stockholders voted to hold a say-on-pay vote
every year, and the Board of Directors determined that the say-on-pay vote would be held annually.

Under SEC rules, we are required to hold a new say-on-frequency vote at least every six years. Accordingly,

this Proposal Three affords our stockholders the opportunity to cast an advisory vote on how often we should
include a say-on-pay vote in our proxy materials for future annual meetings of stockholders (or special
stockholder meetings for which we must include executive compensation information in the proxy statement for
that meeting). Under this Proposal Three, our stockholders may vote to have future advisory votes on executive
compensation every year, every two years, every three years, or abstain from voting.

17

We believe that advisory votes on executive compensation should be conducted every year so that our

stockholders may annually express their views on our executive compensation program.

Vote Required

Under our By-laws, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock represented in

person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal is required to approve, on a non-
binding, advisory basis, a frequency option for future advisory votes on executive compensation. However, if no
option receives the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy
and entitled to vote on the proposal at the Annual Meeting, then the Board of Directors will consider the option
receiving the highest number of votes as the preferred option of the stockholders.

This proposal on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation is advisory only and will
not be binding on the company or our Board of Directors. Although the vote on this proposal is non-binding, our
Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee will carefully review the voting results. Notwithstanding
the Board’s recommendation and the outcome of the stockholder vote, our Board of Directors may in the future
decide to conduct advisory votes on executive compensation on a more or less frequent basis and may vary its
practice based on factors such as discussions with stockholders and the adoption of material changes to our
executive compensation program.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Company’s Board of Directors recommends a vote for “1 YEAR” for the frequency of future
say-on-pay votes.

PROPOSAL FOUR

APPROVAL OF THE ELECTRONICS FOR IMAGING, INC.
2017 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

General

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to approve the Electronics for Imaging, Inc. 2017 Equity
Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”), which was adopted, subject to stockholder approval, by the Board of Directors
on April 11, 2017.

The Company believes that incentives and stock-based awards focus employees on the objective of creating

stockholder value and promoting the success of the Company, and that incentive compensation plans like the
proposed 2017 Plan are an important attraction, retention and motivation tool for participants in the plan.

The Company currently maintains the Electronics for Imaging, Inc. 2009 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the
“2009 Plan”). The Board of Directors believes that the number of shares currently available under the 2009 Plan
does not give the Company sufficient authority and flexibility to adequately provide for future incentives. If
stockholders approve the 2017 Plan, no new awards will be granted under the 2009 Plan after the Annual
Meeting. In that case, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that remain available for award
grants under the 2009 Plan immediately prior to the Annual Meeting (excluding the “Net-Settled Shares” under
the 2009 Plan discussed below) will become available for award grants under the 2017 Plan. An additional
1,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock will also be made available for award grants under the 2017
Plan. In addition, if stockholders approve the 2017 Plan, any shares of common stock subject to outstanding
awards under the 2009 Plan that expire, are cancelled, or otherwise terminate after the Annual Meeting will also
be available for award grant purposes under the 2017 Plan.

18

If stockholders do not approve the 2017 Plan, the Company will continue to have the authority to grant
awards under the 2009 Plan. If stockholders approve the 2017 Plan, the termination of our grant authority under
the 2009 Plan will not affect awards then outstanding under that plan.

Under the terms of the 2009 Plan, shares tendered or withheld to satisfy the grant or exercise price of an
award granted under the 2009 Plan, as well as shares tendered or withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations
in connection with an award granted under the 2009 Plan (referred to in this Proposal 4 as the “Net-Settled
Shares”), are available for subsequent grants under the 2009 Plan. However, the Company has historically not
considered these shares to be available for award grant purposes under the 2009 Plan and has not made any of
these Net-Settled Shares subject to any such subsequent grants under the 2009 Plan. In approving the 2017 Plan,
the Board of Directors determined that, subject to stockholder approval of the 2017 Plan, the Net-Settled Shares
will no longer be treated as reserved for grant purposes under the 2009 Plan and will not be available for new
award grant purposes under the 2009 Plan or the 2017 Plan.

For more information on the Company’s outstanding awards and past grant practices under the 2009 Plan

(referred to below as the Company’s “overhang” and “burn rate,” respectively), please see “Specific Benefits
under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan” below. The 2009 Plan is the Company’s only equity compensation plan
(other than the proposed 2017 Plan and the Company’s Amended and Restated 2000 Employee Stock Purchase
Plan (the “ESPP”)) and all of the Company’s outstanding awards are under the 2009 Plan and the ESPP.

Summary Description of the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan

The principal terms of the 2017 Plan are summarized below. The following summary is qualified in its

entirety by the full text of the 2017 Plan, which appears as Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement.

Purpose. The purpose of the 2017 Plan is to promote the success of the Company by providing an additional

means for us to attract, motivate, retain and reward selected employees and other eligible persons through the
grant of awards. Equity-based awards are also intended to further align the interests of award recipients and our
stockholders.

Administration. Our Board of Directors or one or more committees appointed by our Board of Directors
will administer the 2017 Plan. Our Board of Directors has delegated general administrative authority for the 2017

19

Plan to the Compensation Committee. The Board of Directors or a committee thereof (within its delegated
authority) may delegate different levels of authority to different committees or persons with administrative and
grant authority under the 2017 Plan. (The appropriate acting body, be it the Board of Directors or a committee or
other person within its delegated authority is referred to in this proposal as the “Administrator”).

The Administrator has broad authority under the 2017 Plan, including, without limitation, the authority:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

to select eligible participants and determine the type(s) of award(s) that they are to receive;

to grant awards and determine the terms and conditions of awards, including the price (if any) to be
paid for the shares or the award and, in the case of share-based awards, the number of shares to be
offered or awarded;

to determine any applicable vesting and exercise conditions for awards (including any applicable
performance and/or time-based vesting or exercisability conditions) and the extent to which such
conditions have been satisfied, or determine that no delayed vesting or exercise is required, and to
accelerate or extend the vesting or exercisability or extend the term of any or all outstanding awards;

to cancel, modify, or waive the Company’s rights with respect to, or modify, discontinue, suspend, or
terminate any or all outstanding awards, subject to any required consents;

subject to the other provisions of the 2017 Plan, to make certain adjustments to an outstanding award
and to authorize the conversion, succession or substitution of an award;

to determine the method of payment of any purchase price for an award or shares of the Company’s
common stock delivered under the 2017 Plan, as well as any tax-related items with respect to an award,
which may be in the form of cash, check, or electronic funds transfer, by the delivery of already-owned
shares of the Company’s common stock or by a reduction of the number of shares deliverable pursuant
to the award, by services rendered by the recipient of the award, by notice and third party payment or
cashless exercise on such terms as the Administrator may authorize, or any other form permitted by
law;

to modify the terms and conditions of any award, establish sub-plans and agreements and determine
different terms and conditions that the Administrator deems necessary or advisable to comply with
laws in the countries where the Company or one of its subsidiaries operates or where one or more
eligible participants reside or provide services;

to approve the form of any award agreements used under the 2017 Plan; and

to construe and interpret the 2017 Plan, make rules for the administration of the 2017 Plan, and make
all other determinations for the administration of the 2017 Plan.

No Repricing. In no case (except due to an adjustment to reflect a stock split or other event referred to under

“Adjustments” below, or any repricing that may be approved by stockholders) will the Administrator (1) amend
an outstanding stock option or stock appreciation right to reduce the exercise price or base price of the award,
(2) cancel, exchange, or surrender an outstanding stock option or stock appreciation right in exchange for cash or
other awards for the purpose of repricing the award, or (3) cancel, exchange, or surrender an outstanding stock
option or stock appreciation right in exchange for an option or stock appreciation right with an exercise or base
price that is less than the exercise or base price of the original award.

Minimum Vesting Requirement. Except as described below, all awards granted under the 2017 Plan will be

subject to a minimum vesting requirement of one year. Awards may, however, be granted under the 2017 Plan
with minimum vesting requirements of less than one year, or no vesting requirements, provided that the total
number of the Company’s common shares issued under such awards will not exceed 5% of the Share Limit
described below. This minimum vesting requirement under the 2017 Plan does not limit or restrict the
Administrator’s discretion to accelerate or provide for the acceleration of vesting of any award in any
circumstances it determines to be appropriate.

20

Eligibility. Persons eligible to receive awards under the 2017 Plan include officers or employees of the

Company or any of its subsidiaries, directors of the Company, and certain consultants and advisors to the
Company or any of its subsidiaries. Currently, approximately 3,600 officers and employees of the Company and
its subsidiaries (including all of the Company’s named executive officers), and each of the five members of the
Board who are not employed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries (“Non-Employee Directors”), are
considered eligible under the 2017 Plan.

Aggregate Share Limit. The maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be
issued or transferred pursuant to awards under the 2017 Plan equals the sum of the following (such total number
of shares, the “Share Limit”):

y
x
o
r
P

•

•

•

•

1,200,000 shares, plus

the number of shares available for additional award grant purposes under the 2009 Plan as of the date
of the Annual Meeting and determined immediately prior to the termination of the authority to grant
new awards under that plan as of the date of the Annual Meeting (excluding the Net-Settled Shares
under the 2009 Plan discussed above), plus

the number of any shares subject to stock options granted under the 2009 Plan and outstanding as of the
date of the Annual Meeting which expire, or for any reason are cancelled or terminated, after the date
of the Annual Meeting without being exercised, plus

the number of any shares subject to RSU awards granted under the 2009 Plan that are outstanding and
unvested as of the date of the Annual Meeting which are forfeited, terminated, cancelled, or otherwise
reacquired after the date of the Annual Meeting without having become vested.

As of March 27, 2017, 1,629,640 shares were available for additional award grant purposes under the 2009

Plan (without giving effect to the Net-Settled Shares discussed above), 252,000 shares were subject to stock
options then outstanding under the 2009 Plan, and1,822,727 shares were subject to RSU awards then outstanding
under the 2009 Plan (assuming performance-based RSUs vest based on the maximum level of performance). As
noted above, no additional awards will be granted under the 2009 Plan if stockholders approve the 2017 Plan.

Additional Share Limits. The following other limits are also contained in the 2017 Plan. These limits are in

addition to, and not in lieu of, the Share Limit for the plan described above.

• The maximum number of shares that may be delivered pursuant to options qualified as incentive stock

options granted under the plan is 1,200,000 shares.

• The maximum number of shares subject to those options and stock appreciation rights that are granted
under the plan during any one calendar year to any one individual is 1,000,000 shares (provided that
the limit is 2,000,000 shares during the individual’s first calendar year of service with the Company
and its subsidiaries).

• The maximum number of shares subject to awards granted to a Non-Employee Director under the 2017
Plan during any one calendar year is 9,750 shares, except that this limit is 10,750 shares as to a Non-
Employee Director who is serving as the independent Chair of the Board or as a lead independent
director at the time the applicable grant is made. This limit does not apply to, and will be determined
without taking into account, any award granted to an individual who, on the grant date of the award, is
an officer or employee of the Company or one of its subsidiaries. This limit applies on an individual
basis and not on an aggregate basis to all Non-Employee Directors as a group.

• The maximum number of shares subject to “Qualified Performance-Based Awards” under Section 5.2
of the 2017 Plan (as described in more detail below) granted during any one calendar year to any one
individual where the value of the award is expressed as a number or range of shares (including
Qualified-Performance Based Awards in the form of restricted stock, performance stock or stock unit
awards) or where the award is payable in cash upon or following vesting of the award in an amount

21

determined with reference to the fair market value of a share at such time is 1,000,000 shares (provided
that the limit is 2,000,000 shares during the individual’s first calendar year of service with the
Company and its subsidiaries).

• The maximum amount that may be paid to any one participant in respect of all “Qualified

Performance-Based Awards” under Section 5.2 of the 2017 Plan granted to that participant in any one
calendar year where the potential payment is a stated cash amount or range of stated cash amounts is
$5,000,000 (regardless of whether the payment is ultimately made in cash or in a number of shares
determined based on the fair market value of a share upon or following the vesting of the award).

Share-Limit Counting Rules. The Share Limit of the 2017 Plan is subject to the following rules:

• Except as expressly provided below, shares that are subject to or underlie awards which expire or for

any reason are cancelled or terminated, are forfeited, fail to vest, or for any other reason are not paid or
delivered under the 2017 Plan will not be counted against the Share Limit and will again be available
for subsequent awards under the 2017 Plan.

• To the extent that shares are delivered pursuant to the exercise of a stock option or stock appreciation
right granted under the 2017 Plan, the number of shares as to which the portion of the stock option or
stock appreciation right is exercised shall be counted against the Share Limit. (For purposes of clarity,
if a stock option or stock appreciation right relates to 100,000 shares and is exercised at a time when
the net number of shares due to the participant is 15,000 shares (taking into account any shares
withheld to satisfy any applicable exercise or base price of the award and any shares withheld to satisfy
any tax withholding obligations arising in connection with such exercise), 100,000 shares shall be
charged against the Share Limit with respect to such award.)

•

Shares that are exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Company as full or partial payment in
connection with any award granted under the 2017 Plan or the 2009 Plan, as well as any shares
exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Company to satisfy the tax withholding obligations
related to any award granted under the 2017 Plan or the 2009 Plan, will not be available for subsequent
awards under the 2017 Plan.

• To the extent that an award is settled in cash or a form other than shares, the shares that would have
been delivered had there been no such cash or other settlement will not be counted against the Share
Limit and will again be available for subsequent awards under the 2017 Plan.

•

In the event that shares are delivered in respect of a dividend equivalent right, the actual number of
shares delivered with respect to the award shall be counted against the Share Limit. (For purposes of
clarity, if 1,000 dividend equivalent rights are granted and outstanding when the Company pays a
dividend, and 50 shares are delivered in payment of those rights with respect to that dividend, 50 shares
shall be counted against the Share Limit.) Except as otherwise provided by the Administrator, shares
delivered in respect of dividend equivalent rights shall not count against any individual award limit
under the 2017 Plan other than the aggregate Share Limit.

In addition, the 2017 Plan generally provides that shares issued in connection with awards that are granted

by or become obligations of the Company through the assumption of awards (or in substitution for awards) in
connection with an acquisition of another company will not count against the shares available for issuance under
the 2017 Plan. The Company may not increase the applicable share limits of the 2017 Plan by repurchasing
shares of common stock on the market (by using cash received through the exercise of stock options or
otherwise).

Types of Awards. The 2017 Plan authorizes stock options, stock appreciation rights, and other forms of

awards granted or denominated in the Company’s common stock or units of the Company’s common stock, as
well as cash bonus awards. The 2017 Plan retains flexibility to offer competitive incentives and to tailor benefits
to specific needs and circumstances. Any award may be structured to be paid or settled in cash.

22

y
x
o

P

A stock option is the right to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a future date at a specified
price per share (the “exercise price”). The per share exercise price of an option generally may not be less than the
fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The maximum term of an
option is ten years from the date of grant. An option may either be an incentive stock option or a nonqualified
stock option. Incentive stock option benefits are taxed differently from nonqualified stock options, as described
under “Federal Income Tax Consequences of Awards Under the 2017 Plan” below. Incentive stock options are
also subject to more restrictive terms and are limited in amount by the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the 2017
Plan. Incentive stock options may only be granted to employees of the Company or a subsidiary.

A stock appreciation right is the right to receive payment of an amount equal to the excess of the fair market

value of share of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise of the stock appreciation right over the
base price of the stock appreciation right. The base price will be established by the Administrator at the time of
grant of the stock appreciation right and generally may not be less than the fair market value of a share of the
Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Stock appreciation rights may be granted in connection with
other awards or independently. The maximum term of a stock appreciation right is ten years from the date of
grant.

The other types of awards that may be granted under the 2017 Plan include, without limitation, stock
bonuses, restricted stock, performance stock, stock units or phantom stock (which are contractual rights to
receive shares of stock, or cash based on the fair market value of a share of stock), dividend equivalents which
represent the right to receive a payment based on the dividends paid on a share of stock over a stated period of
time, or similar rights to purchase or acquire shares, and cash awards.

Subject to the minimum vesting requirement described above, any awards under the 2017 Plan (including
awards of stock options and stock appreciation rights) may be fully-vested at grant or may be subject to time-
and/or performance-based vesting requirements.

Qualified Performance-Based Awards. Under Section 162(m) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code

(“Section 162(m)”) a public corporation generally cannot take a tax deduction in any tax year for compensation it
pays to its Chief Executive Officer and certain other executive officers in excess of $1 million. Compensation
that qualifies as “performance-based” under Section 162(m), however, is excluded from the $1 million limit if,
among other requirements, the compensation is payable only upon attainment of pre-established, objective
performance goals under a plan approved by the corporation’s shareholders.

The Administrator may grant awards under the 2017 Plan that are intended to be performance-based awards
within the meaning of Section 162(m). Stock options and stock appreciation rights may qualify as performance-
based awards within the meaning of Section 162(m). In addition, other types of awards authorized under the 2017
Plan (such as restricted stock, performance stock, stock units, and cash bonus opportunities) may be granted with
performance-based vesting requirements and intended to qualify as performance-based awards within the
meaning of Section 162(m) (“Qualified Performance-Based Awards”). While the Administrator may grant
awards under the 2017 Plan that qualify (or are intended to qualify) as performance-based awards within the
meaning of Section 162(m), nothing requires that any award qualify as “performance-based” within the meaning
of Section 162(m) or otherwise be deductible for tax purposes.

The vesting or payment of Qualified Performance-Based Awards will depend on the performance of the

Company on a consolidated, subsidiary, segment, division, or business unit basis. The Administrator will
establish the criterion or criteria and target(s) on which performance will be measured. To qualify an award as
performance-based under Section 162(m), the Administrator must consist solely of two or more outside directors
(as this requirement is applied under Section 162(m)), the Administrator must establish criteria and targets in
advance of applicable deadlines under Section 162(m) and while the attainment of the performance targets
remains substantially uncertain, and the Administrator must certify that any applicable performance goals and
other material terms of the grant were satisfied. The performance criteria that the Administrator may use for this

23

purpose will include one or more of the following: net earnings (either before or after interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization), economic value-added, sales or revenue, net income (either before or after taxes), operating
earnings, operating income, cash flow (including, but not limited to, operating cash flow and free cash flow),
cash flow return on capital, return on net assets, return on stockholders’ equity, return on assets, return on capital,
stockholder returns, return on sales, gross or net profit margin, productivity, expense, margins, operating
efficiency, customer satisfaction, working capital, earnings per share, price per share, market share, or any
combination thereof. These performance criteria may be measured on an absolute or relative basis (including
relative to the performance of other companies) and may also be expressed as a growth or decline measure
relative to an amount or performance for a prior date or period. The performance measurement period with
respect to an award may range from three months to ten years. The terms of the Qualified Performance-Based
Awards may specify the manner, if any, in which performance targets shall be adjusted to exclude the effects of
certain unusual or nonrecurring items identified in the 2017 Plan documents or otherwise specified by the
Administrator at the time of establishing the goals.

Qualified Performance-Based Awards may be paid in stock or in cash (in either case, subject to the limits
described under the heading “Additional Share Limits” above). The Administrator has discretion to determine the
performance target or targets and any other restrictions or other limitations of Qualified Performance-Based
Awards and may reserve discretion to reduce payments below maximum award limits.

Dividend Equivalents; Deferrals. The Administrator may provide for the deferred payment of awards, and

may determine the other terms applicable to deferrals. The Administrator may provide that awards under the
2017 Plan (other than options or stock appreciation rights), and/or deferrals, earn dividends or dividend
equivalents based on the amount of dividends paid on outstanding shares of Common Stock, provided that as to
any dividend equivalent rights granted in connection with an award granted under the 2017 Plan that is subject to
vesting requirements, no dividend equivalent payment will be made unless the related vesting conditions of the
award are satisfied (or, in the case of a restricted stock or similar award where the dividend must be paid as a
matter of law, the dividend payment will be subject to forfeiture or repayment, as the case may be, if the
applicable vesting conditions are not satisfied).

Assumption and Termination of Awards. If an event occurs in which the Company does not survive (or

does not survive as a public company in respect of its common stock), including, without limitation, a
dissolution, merger, combination, consolidation, conversion, exchange of securities, or other reorganization, or a
sale of all or substantially all of the business, stock or assets of the Company, awards then-outstanding under the
2017 Plan will not automatically become fully vested pursuant to the provisions of the 2017 Plan so long as such
awards are assumed, substituted for or otherwise continued. However, if awards then-outstanding under the 2017
Plan are to be terminated in such circumstances (without being assumed or substituted for), such awards would
generally become fully vested (with any performance goals applicable to the award being deemed met at the
“target” performance level), subject to any exceptions that the Administrator may provide for in an applicable
award agreement. The Administrator also has the discretion to establish other change in control provisions with
respect to awards granted under the 2017 Plan. For example, the Administrator could provide for the acceleration
of vesting or payment of an award in connection with a corporate event or in connection with a termination of the
award holder’s employment. For the treatment of outstanding equity awards held by the named executive officers
in connection with a termination of employment and/or a change in control of the Company, please see the
“Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control” below in this Proxy Statement.

Transfer Restrictions. Subject to certain exceptions contained in Section 5.7 of the 2017 Plan, awards under

the 2017 Plan generally are not transferable by the recipient other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution and are generally exercisable, during the recipient’s lifetime, only by the recipient. Any amounts
payable or shares issuable pursuant to an award generally will be paid only to the recipient or the recipient’s
beneficiary or representative. The Administrator has discretion, however, to establish written conditions and
procedures for the transfer of awards to other persons or entities, provided that such transfers comply with
applicable federal and state securities laws and are not made for value (other than nominal consideration,

settlement of marital property rights, or for interests in an entity in which more than 50% of the voting securities
are held by the award recipient or by the recipient’s family members).

Adjustments. As is customary in incentive plans of this nature, each share limit and the number and kind of

shares available under the 2017 Plan and any outstanding awards, as well as the exercise or purchase prices of
awards, and performance targets under certain types of performance-based awards, are subject to adjustment in
the event of certain reorganizations, mergers, combinations, recapitalizations, stock splits, stock dividends, or
other similar events that change the number or kind of shares outstanding, and extraordinary dividends or
distributions of property to the stockholders.

No Limit on Other Authority. Except as expressly provided with respect to the termination of the authority
to grant new awards under the 2009 Plan if stockholders approve the 2017 Plan, the 2017 Plan does not limit the
authority of the Board of Directors or any committee to grant awards or authorize any other compensation, with
or without reference to the Company’s common stock, under any other plan or authority.

Termination of or Changes to the 2017 Plan. The Board of Directors may amend or terminate the 2017

Plan at any time and in any manner. Stockholder approval for an amendment will be required only to the extent
then required by applicable law or deemed necessary or advisable by the Board of Directors. Unless terminated
earlier by the Board of Directors and subject to any extension that may be approved by stockholders, the
authority to grant new awards under the 2017 Plan will terminate on April 10, 2027. Outstanding awards, as well
as the Administrator’s authority with respect thereto, generally will continue following the expiration or
termination of the plan. Generally speaking, outstanding awards may be amended by the Administrator (except
for a repricing), but the consent of the award holder is required if the amendment (or any plan amendment)
materially and adversely affects the holder.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Awards under the 2017 Plan

The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the 2017 Plan under current federal law, which is subject to

change, are summarized in the following discussion of the general tax principles applicable to the 2017 Plan.
This summary is not intended to be exhaustive and, among other considerations, does not describe the deferred
compensation provisions of Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code to the extent an award is subject to
and does not satisfy those rules, nor does it describe state, local, or international tax consequences.

With respect to nonqualified stock options, the company is generally entitled to deduct and the participant

recognizes taxable income in an amount equal to the difference between the option exercise price and the fair
market value of the shares at the time of exercise. With respect to incentive stock options, the company is
generally not entitled to a deduction nor does the participant recognize income at the time of exercise, although
the participant may be subject to the U.S. federal alternative minimum tax.

The current federal income tax consequences of other awards authorized under the 2017 Plan generally
follow certain basic patterns: nontransferable restricted stock subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture results in
income recognition equal to the excess of the fair market value over the price paid (if any) only at the time the
restrictions lapse (unless the recipient elects to accelerate recognition as of the date of grant); bonuses, stock
appreciation rights, cash and stock-based performance awards, dividend equivalents, stock units, and other types
of awards are generally subject to tax at the time of payment; and compensation otherwise effectively deferred is
taxed when paid. In each of the foregoing cases, the company will generally have a corresponding deduction at
the time the participant recognizes income.

If an award is accelerated under the 2017 Plan in connection with a “change in control” (as this term is used

under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code), the company may not be permitted to deduct the portion of the
compensation attributable to the acceleration (“parachute payments”) if it exceeds certain threshold limits under
the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (and certain related excise taxes may be triggered). Furthermore, the aggregate

25

compensation in excess of $1,000,000 attributable to awards that are not “performance-based” within the
meaning of Section 162(m) may not be permitted to be deducted by the company in certain circumstances.

Specific Benefits under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan

The Company has not approved any awards that are conditioned upon stockholder approval of the 2017
Plan. The Company is not currently considering any other specific award grants under the 2017 Plan, other than
the annual grants of RSUs to our Non-Employee Directors described in the following paragraph. If the 2017 Plan
had been in existence in fiscal 2016, the Company expects that its award grants for fiscal 2016 would not have
been substantially different from those actually made in that year under the 2009 Plan. For information regarding
stock-based awards granted to the Company’s named executive officers during fiscal 2016, see the material
under the heading “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and the related executive compensation tables
below.

As described under “Director Compensation” above, our current compensation policy for Non-Employee
Directors provides for each Non-Employee Director to receive an annual award of 6,500 RSUs. Additionally, our
current compensation policy provides that the Board chair receives an annual retainer of $30,000 paid in RSUs,
with the number of shares to be determined by dividing $30,000 by the closing price of our common stock on the
grant date (or the immediately preceding trading day if the grant date is not a trading day) as described under
“Director Compensation” above. Assuming, for illustrative purposes only, that the price of the common stock
used for the conversion of the dollar amount set forth above into shares is $47.09 (the closing price of our
common stock on March 27, 2017), the number of RSUs that would be allocated to the Company’s Board chair
each year pursuant to the annual grant formula is approximately 637 shares. Accordingly, the aggregate number
of shares that would be subject to the annual grants under the director equity grant program for calendar years
2018 through 2027 (the ten years in the term of the 2017 Plan, assuming the plan is approved) based on that
assumed stock price is 331,370 shares (which is the annual award of 6,500 RSUs for each of our five Non-
Employee Directors plus the 637 shares for the annual Board chair grant, multiplied by the ten years in the term
of the 2017 Plan). This calculation also assumes that there are no new eligible directors, there continue to be five
eligible directors seated and there are no changes to the awards granted under the director equity grant program.

The following paragraphs include additional information to help you assess the potential dilutive impact of

the Company’s equity awards and the 2017 Plan. The 2009 Plan is the Company’s only equity compensation plan
(other than the ESPP). The ESPP generally provides for broad-based participation by employees of the Company
(and certain of its subsidiaries) and affords employees who elect to participate an opportunity to purchase shares
of the Company’s common stock at a discount. Certain information regarding the number of shares of Company
common stock available for issuance under the ESPP is included under the heading “Equity Compensation Plan
Information” below. The discussion that follows in this “Specific Benefits” section does not include any shares
that have been purchased under, may be purchased in the current purchase period under, or that remain available
for issuance or delivery under the ESPP.

“Overhang” refers to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that are subject to outstanding

awards or remain available for new award grants. The following table shows the total number of shares of the
Company’s common stock that were subject to outstanding RSU awards granted under the 2009 Plan, that were
subject to outstanding stock options granted under the 2009 Plan, and that were then available for new award
grants under the 2009 Plan as of December 31, 2016 and as of March 27, 2017. (In this 2017 Plan proposal, the
number of shares of the Company’s common stock subject to RSU awards granted during any particular period
or outstanding on any particular date is presented based on the actual number of shares of the Company’s

26

common stock covered by those awards, with awards subject to performance-based vesting requirements
presented based on the maximum level of performance.)

The number of shares available for future issuance shown in this table does not include the Net-Settled

Shares available under the 2009 Plan (as discussed in the introduction to this 2016 Plan Proposal).

The weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding in each of

the last three fiscal years are included in the table below.

The number of shares subject to annual grants of equity awards is commonly expressed as percentage of total
shares outstanding and referred to as the “burn rate.” Burn rate is a measure of dilution reflecting how rapidly a
company is depleting its shares reserved for equity compensation plans. Burn rate differs from annual dilution
because it does not consider cancellations and forfeitures. We have calculated the burn rate under our 2009 Plan
for each the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 as follows:

Full Value Shares Granted/Vested equals time-based awards RSUs granted during the applicable fiscal year

and performance-based and market-based RSUs that vested during that fiscal year multiplied by a multiplier of
2.5 and added to performance-based and market-based stock options that vested during that fiscal year. The
multiplier was determined based on the burn rate policies of Institutional Shareholder Services.

The table above does not take into account awards that are cancelled or forfeited during the fiscal year. Our
annual dilution for fiscal 2016 was 2.3%, measured as the number of shares subject to equity awards granted in a
given year, less cancellations and forfeitures, divided by common shares outstanding at the end of the year.

The Compensation Committee anticipates that the 1,200,000 additional shares requested for the 2017 Plan,

together with the shares available for new award grants under the 2009 Plan on the Annual Meeting date
(excluding the Net-Settled Shares as discussed above), and assuming usual levels of shares becoming available
for new awards as a result of forfeitures of outstanding awards will provide the Company with flexibility to
continue to grant equity awards under the 2017 Plan through approximately the end of 2019 (reserving sufficient
shares to cover potential payment of performance-based awards at maximum payment levels). However, this is
only an estimate, in the Company’s judgment, based on current circumstances. The total number of shares that
are subject to the Company’s award grants in any one year or from year-to-year may change based on a number
of variables, including, without limitation, the value of the Company’s common stock (since higher stock prices
generally require that fewer shares be issued to produce awards of the same grant date fair value), changes in

27

competitors’ compensation practices or changes in compensation practices in the market generally, changes in
the number of employees, changes in the number of directors and officers, whether and the extent to which
vesting conditions applicable to equity-based awards are satisfied, acquisition activity and the need to grant
awards to new employees in connection with acquisitions, the need to attract, retain and incentivize key talent,
the type of awards the Company grants, and how the Company chooses to balance total compensation between
cash and equity-based awards.

The closing market price for a share of the Company’s common stock as of March 27, 2017 was $47.09 per

share.

EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION

The Company currently maintains two equity compensation plans: the 2009 Plan and the ESPP. Both plans

were approved by the Company’s stockholders. Stockholders are also being asked to approve a new equity
compensation plan, the 2017 Plan, as described above.

The following table sets forth, for each of the Company’s equity compensation plans, the number of shares
of common stock subject to outstanding awards, the weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options, and
the number of shares remaining authorized and available for future award grants as of December 31, 2016.

(2) Calculated without taking into account 2,083,075 RSUs that will become issuable as those units vest,

without any cash consideration or other payment required for such shares.

(3) Available shares do not include 1,234,744 Net Settled Shares under the 2009 Plan (although those shares

were included in the “Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans” table included
in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016). We have not
included the Net Settled Shares in the table above because, as discussed above, although the 2009 Plan
provides that the Net-Settled Shares are available for award grant purposes under the 2009 Plan, the
Company has historically not considered these Net-Settled Shares to be available for grant and has not made
any of these Net-Settled Shares subject to any grants under the 2009 Plan. In approving the 2017 Plan, the
Board of Directors determined that, subject to stockholder approval of the 2017 Plan, the Net-Settled Shares
will not be available for new award grant purposes under the 2009 Plan or the 2017 Plan.

(4) Available shares include 1,660,761 shares available under the 2009 Plan and 1,186,30 shares available

under the ESPP, before giving effect to 153,123 shares purchased under the ESPP for the purchase period
ended January 31, 2017.

(5) The shares available for awards under the 2009 Plan are, subject to certain other limits under the plan,

generally available for any type of award authorized under the 2009 Plan, including stock options, stock
appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, stock bonuses and other stock-based awards. If stockholders
approve the 2017 Plan, no new awards will be granted under the 2009 Plan after the Annual Meeting.

Vote Required for Approval of the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan

The Board of Directors believes that the adoption of the 2017 Plan will promote the interests of the

Company and its stockholders and will help the Company and its subsidiaries continue to be able to attract, retain
and reward persons important to our success.

All members of the Board of Directors and all of the Company’s executive officers are eligible for awards

under the 2017 Plan and thus have a personal interest in the approval of the 2017 Plan.

Approval of the 2017 Plan requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the common stock present, or

represented, and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

PROPOSAL FIVE

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as the

Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.
Stockholder ratification of the appointment of Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public
accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017 is not required by law, by the NASDAQ Rules, or
by the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws. However, the Board of Directors is submitting the selection of
Deloitte to the Company’s stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance and practice. If
the stockholders fail to ratify the appointment, the Board of Directors will reconsider whether to retain that firm.
Even if the selection is ratified, the Company may appoint a different independent registered public accounting
firm during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the
Company and its stockholders.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, Deloitte provided various audit, audit related,

and non-audit services as follows (in thousands):

(1) Accounting research tools
(a) Audit fees consist of aggregate fees incurred for professional services rendered for the audit of the

Company’s consolidated financial statements included in annual SEC filings and reports, review of interim
consolidated financial statements, and the audit of the effectiveness of our internal controls pursuant to
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

(b) Audit-related fees consist of fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the
performance of the audit or review of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and are not reported
under “Audit Fees.” These services primarily include acquisition-related due diligence services and audit
procedures related to our acquisitions.

29

(c) Tax fees include:

• Tax compliance consisting of fees billed for professional services for tax compliance, the preparation

of original and amended tax returns and refund claims, and tax planning.

• Tax consulting consists of tax advice and tax planning. These services include tax assistance regarding

mergers and acquisitions.

(d) All other fees consist of accounting research tools.

The Audit Committee is responsible for pre-approving audit and non-audit services to be provided to the
Company by the independent registered public accounting firm (or subsequently approving non-audit services in
those circumstances where a subsequent approval is necessary and permissible). In this regard, the Audit
Committee has the sole authority to approve the employment of the independent registered public accounting
firm, all audit engagement fees and terms and all non-audit engagements, as may be permissible, with the
independent registered public accounting firm.

The Audit Committee has considered whether provision of the services described in sections (b), (c), and
(d), above is compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence and
has determined that such services have not adversely affected Deloitte’s independence. All of the services of
each of (b), (c), and (d) were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

Representatives of Deloitte are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. The representatives will have

an opportunity to make a statement and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Vote Required

The ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a

majority of shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon, at the
Annual Meeting.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Company’s Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of the
Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.
Proxies received by the Company will be voted “FOR” this proposal unless the stockholder specifies
otherwise in the proxy.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP

Except as otherwise indicated below, the following table sets forth certain information regarding beneficial
ownership of common stock as of April 24, 2017 by: (1) each of the Company’s current directors; (2) each of the
named executive officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table for 2016 on page 51 of this Proxy
Statement (collectively, the Company’s “named executive officers”); (3) each person known to the Company to
be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock based upon
Schedules 13G, filed with the SEC; and (4) all of the Company’s directors and executive officers as a group. As
of April 24, 2017, there were 46,467,840 shares of common stock outstanding.

Shares of common stock subject to options or other rights that are currently exercisable or exercisable
within 60 days of April 24, 2017 are considered outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding the
options or other rights for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but are not treated
as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person, except with respect to
the percentage ownership of all directors and executive officers as a group. Unless otherwise indicated below, the

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The following sections of this proxy statement describe the Company’s compensation arrangements with its
named executive officers (also referred to below as the “executives”), who, for fiscal year 2016, were Guy Gecht,
Chief Executive Officer and President, and Marc Olin, Chief Financial Officer.

Executive Summary

The Compensation Committee oversees the executive compensation program and determines the

compensation for the named executive officers. The Compensation Committee believes that compensation paid
to the named executive officers should be closely aligned with the performance of the Company on both a short-
term and long-term basis, and linked to specific, measurable results intended to create value for stockholders.
Consequently, the Compensation Committee sets performance metrics for our incentive compensation programs
that match our short-term and long-term operating frameworks and sets target performance levels that are
challenging but achievable with good performance, and maximum performance levels that represent stretch
goals.

The compensation of the named executive officers consists primarily of three elements—a base salary, an

annual incentive program, and long-term incentive awards—that are designed to reward executives for
performance and to promote retention among our executive team.

33

For 2016, we made significant changes in the mix of incentive compensation awards to our named executive

officers to build stronger pay-for-performance alignment with our stockholders. This Compensation Discussion
and Analysis describes the Company’s executive compensation program and the decisions made by the
Compensation Committee in 2016. Highlights of the program include:

• Our executive compensation program is designed to pay for performance—For 2016, the vast

majority of the target total direct compensation for our named executive officers was in the form of
incentive compensation with approximately 87% of the target total direct compensation for Mr. Gecht
and approximately 77% for Mr. Olin being in the form of incentive compensation tied to the
achievement of specific financial performance goals and/or our stock price. For these purposes, “target
total direct compensation” consists of the executive’s base salary, target annual incentive award
(excluding the “accelerator” annual incentive award opportunity described below), and long-term
incentive awards based on the grant date fair value of the award as determined in accordance with ASC
718. No increases were made to executives’ base salaries for 2016.

• Our annual incentive program is based entirely on objective, financial criteria—Our executive

annual incentive program is intended to encourage our named executive officers to focus on specific
short-term financial goals that are important to our success, and which correlate to the long-term goals
and strategy of the Company. The performance measures used to determine the payment of awards for
2016 were Company-wide revenue (as determined under generally accepted accounting principles, or
“GAAP”) and non-GAAP operating income. These measures were chosen because of feedback from
our conversations with stockholders and because they align with our annual operating plan and we
believe they encourage our executives to make decisions that are in the best long-term interests of the
Company and our stockholders. We believe the performance goals established by the Compensation
Committee are rigorous and consistent with our pay-for-performance philosophy.

• Our annual incentive program is denominated entirely in shares of our stock to further align

interests of executives with those of shareholders—Awards under the 2016 annual incentive program
consisted of two incentive opportunities: one for achieving targeted levels of performance (referred to
as the “Target” incentive opportunity) and another for achieving above-target levels of performance
(referred to as the “accelerator” incentive opportunity). Both of these opportunities were granted in the
form of performance-based RSU awards that help further align named executive officers’ interests with
those of our stockholders and are subject to a cap on the maximum payout

•

Incentive compensation performance achievement was between threshold and target—Consistent
with our pay for performance philosophy and illustrating the rigorous nature of the goals established
for the annual incentive program, as described in more detail below, the Compensation Committee
determined that the Company’s performance during 2016 was between the threshold and target levels
for vesting of Target RSUs under the annual incentive program (although both our revenue and non-
GAAP operating income levels increased in 2016 compared with 2015 levels). Accordingly, the Target
RSUs vested as to 86% of the units subject to the awards (with 80% vesting of units linked to revenue
performance and 92% vesting of the units linked to non-GAAP operating income performance), and no
portion of the accelerator RSUs vested.

• Two-thirds of 2016 long-term incentive awards were performance based—Two-thirds of the RSUs
granted to our named executive officers in August 2016 under our long-term incentive program were
subject to both performance-based and time-based vesting conditions (“performance-based RSUs”) and
one-third of the RSUs were only subject to time-based vesting conditions (“time-based RSUs”), in each
case based on the number of shares subject to each grant. The performance-based RSUs consisted of an
award that generally vests based on our revenue growth over the three-year period (2017-2019)
covered by the award (subject to a modifier based on our revenue growth over that period relative to a
group of NASDAQ listed companies with market capitalizations similar to ours) and a second award
that generally vests based on our non-GAAP EPS growth over the three-year period covered by the
award (subject to a modifier based on our growth in cash from operating activities (referred to in this

34

Compensation Discussion and Analysis as “cash from operations”) over that period). These awards are
intended to both provide a retention incentive (as the awards are also subject to continued employment
requirements) and enhance executives’ focus on specific financial goals considered important to the
Company’s long-term growth. The time-based RSUs provide an additional retention incentive for our
executives as they are subject to three-year vesting schedules. Because both the time-based RSUs and
the performance-based RSUs will generally remain outstanding for a period of years, they also help
ensure that executives always have significant value tied to delivering long-term stockholder value. We
modified our approach for measuring company performance under our long term incentive awards in
2016 to reflect feedback from stockholders that they would like to see revenue growth measured
relative to the growth generated by other comparable companies and to see that our cash from
operations is growing at a comparable rate to our non-GAAP EPS growth.

P

• Executives were granted a performance based incentive award based on cash flow—In February
2016, in response to input from stockholders and to align the interests of executives with the
Company’s initiative focused on driving near-term cash flow through operational improvements while
continuing to maintain revenue and operating income growth, the Company granted executives (along
with other key employees) a relatively small incentive opportunity designed to bring immediate focus
to the Company’s cash from operations. The award was in the form of performance-based RSUs that
vest based on the Company’s cash from operations as a percentage of its non-GAAP net income in
2016. The Compensation Committee agreed with shareholder input that cash flow is an important
measure of Company performance and as such should be integrated into the Company’s incentive
program. Accordingly, as noted above, the cash from operations is metric is also included as a
performance metric in the long-term incentives covering the 2017-2019 performance period.

• The Company has no tax gross-up provisions in its agreements with its executive officers—The

Committee believes that it is not in the best interests of shareholders to provide tax gross-up benefits to
executives.

• We have a clawback policy—The policy provides that the Company may recover performance-based

compensation (whether paid as cash or equity) paid to executive officers in connection with a
restatement of the Company’s financial results.

• We maintain executive stock ownership guidelines—To further align the interests of our executives
and our stockholders, in February 2017, our Board of Directors adopted revised stock ownership
guidelines applicable to all executives of the Company. The newly adopted guidelines provide that the
Company’s chief executive officer should own Company shares with a value of at least five times his
base salary and the Company’s other executives should own Company shares with a value of at least
two times their base salaries. As of April 24, 2017, each of our executive officers had satisfied the
applicable stock ownership requirements, which we believe helps to significantly align their interests
with those of our stockholders.

• Our executives are subject to stock holding periods—In February 2017, our Board of Directors

adopted a requirement that each of our executive officers hold any vested shares they acquire pursuant
to their equity awards (after satisfying applicable tax withholding) for at least three years (or, if earlier,
termination of the executive’s employment with us). This holding period requirement is in addition to
the stock ownership guidelines described above.

Performance Overview

The Company believes the compensation program for the named executive officers is instrumental in
helping the Company achieve its financial performance. In 2016, the Company achieved record revenue, growing
to approximately $992 million, which represented an increase of approximately $109 million or 12% growth over
the prior year. As described below, revenue is one of the metrics used to measure the Company’s performance
for purposes of the executives’ annual incentive program and performance-based long-term incentive awards.

Compensation Objectives and Philosophy

The Company’s executive compensation programs are designed to achieve the following key objectives:

• Attract and retain individuals of superior ability and managerial talent;

• Align compensation with the Company’s corporate strategies, business and financial objectives, and

the long-term interests of the Company’s stockholders;

•

Incentivize executives to achieve key strategic and financial performance goals of the Company by
linking executive incentive award opportunities to the achievement of these goals; and

• Help ensure that the total compensation is fair, reasonable and competitive.

Role of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors

The Compensation Committee has responsibility for approving and evaluating matters relating to the overall

compensation philosophy, compensation plans, policies, and programs of the Company. This includes
periodically reviewing and approving the Company’s named executive officers’ annual base salaries, annual
incentive awards, long-term incentive awards, employment agreements, severance arrangements, change in
control agreements or provisions, as well as any other benefits or compensation arrangements for the named
executive officers. In certain circumstances, the Compensation Committee may solicit input from the full Board
of Directors before making final decisions relating to compensation of the named executive officers. In fulfilling
its responsibilities, the Compensation Committee may consider, among other things, industry and general
practices, benchmark data, and marketplace developments.

Role of Management in Assisting Compensation Decisions

Members of the executive management team of the Company, such as the named executive officers, the

Vice President of Human Resources, and the General Counsel (“Executive Management”), provide
administrative assistance and support for the Compensation Committee from time to time. Executive
Management provides recommendations and information to the Compensation Committee to consider, analyze,
and review in connection with compensation proposals for the named executive officers. Executive Management
does not have any final decision-making authority in regards to named executive officer compensation. The
Compensation Committee reviews any recommendations and information provided by Executive Management
and approves the final executive compensation package.

Role of Stockholder Say-on-Pay Votes

The Company provides its stockholders with the opportunity to cast an annual advisory vote to approve its

executive compensation program (referred to as a “say-on-pay proposal”). At the annual meeting of stockholders
held in May 2016, approximately 78% of the votes actually cast on the say-on-pay proposal at that meeting were
voted in favor of the proposal. Although the Company would like to see a greater level of support for its
executive compensation program, the Company believes that stockholders generally approve of the program, and
in recent years, the Company has adopted a number of features (such as granting its executives’ annual incentive
opportunities entirely in the form of equity awards, strengthening its executive stock ownership guidelines,
implementing a holding period requirement for executives and adopting a clawback policy) that it believes have
improved the program and are generally favored by stockholders.

During 2016, the Company met with the two principal proxy advisory firms and discussed its compensation
program directly with a number of stockholders. Based on the feedback provided, the Company changed its long-
term incentive metrics to differentiate from those used under the annual incentive program and include additional
criteria considered important by the Company and stockholders. The annual incentive program retains revenue
and non-GAAP operating income as metrics while the long-term incentive awards now measure performance
based on revenue growth over a three-year period and relative to a defined peer group, and growth in EPS and
cash from operations. The Company believes using multiple metrics, including relative metrics, helps give a
broader picture of the Company’s performance and reduces the risk of over-emphasizing any particular
performance metric.

The Company values the views expressed by its stockholders, and the Compensation Committee will
continue to consider the outcome of the Company’s say-on-pay proposals when making future compensation
decisions for the named executive officers.

Use of Outside Advisors

The Compensation Committee may use consultants to assist in the evaluation of compensation for the
named executive officers. The Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain and terminate any
compensation consultant engaged to perform these services. The Compensation Committee also has authority to
obtain advice and assistance from internal or external legal, accounting, or other advisers.

The Compensation Committee has retained Mercer (US) Inc. (“Mercer”) as its independent compensation
consultant to provide information, analyses, and advice regarding executive and director compensation. For 2016,
Mercer also assisted the Compensation Committee in its assessment of the potential relationship between the
Company’s compensation program and risk-taking by management. For more information, see the
“Compensation Risk Assessment” section on page 58 of this Proxy Statement.

In the course of conducting its activities, Mercer attended meetings of the Compensation Committee and
presented its findings and recommendations for discussion. During the course of the year, Mercer worked with

37

management to obtain and validate data, review materials, and recommend potential changes. Mercer invoiced the
Company for approximately $149,500 in fees in connection with the Compensation Committee’s determination of a
variety of components of executive and board of director compensation during fiscal year 2016. Mercer is a
subsidiary of Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc. (“MMC”), a diversified conglomerate of companies that provide
insurance, strategy, and human resources consulting services. In 2016, other Mercer business segments received
approximately $75,000 in fees for insurance brokerage services. The decision to engage Mercer to provide services
other than assisting the Compensation Committee with executive compensation matters was made by members of
management. The Compensation Committee has reviewed the other services provided by Mercer and, after
consideration of such services and other factors prescribed by the SEC for purposes of assessing the independence
of compensation consultants, has determined that no conflicts of interest exist between the Company and Mercer (or
any individuals working on the Company’s account on Mercer’s behalf).

Review of External Compensation Data

The Compensation Committee does not set compensation levels at any specific level or percentile against
the peer group (i.e., the Compensation Committee does not “benchmark” compensation at any particular levels
relative to these companies). However, the Compensation Committee periodically reviews market compensation
levels to inform its decision-making process and to determine whether the total compensation opportunities for
the Company’s named executive officers are appropriate in light of factors such as the compensation
arrangements for similarly situated executives in the market, and may make adjustments when the Compensation
Committee determines they are appropriate.

Historically, the Compensation Committee, with assistance from Mercer, has used a peer group of

companies each year to provide a basis of comparison for the Company’s executive compensation programs. The
peer group is determined based generally on the following criteria:

• U.S. publicly traded companies;

• Companies of comparable size with revenue within a range of approximately one-half to two times the

Company’s revenue;

• Companies in technology-related industries: Communications Equipment, Computer Storage &

Peripherals, Computer Hardware, Electronic Equipment and Instruments, and Systems Software; and

• Companies with similar business models and characteristics: business to business sales, manufacturing

capabilities, software products and/or integrated solutions/services.

Our 2016 peer group consisted of the following companies:

3D Systems Corporation
Analogic Corporation
Cirrus Logic, Inc.
Commvault Systems, Inc.
Cray Inc.
Extreme Networks, Inc.
F5 Networks, Inc.
Finisar Corporation

Fortinet, Inc.
Infinera Corporation
Netgear, Inc.
Netsuite Inc.
Plantronics, Inc.
QLogic Corporation
Synaptics Incorporated

We periodically review our peer group to ensure that companies continue to be size and business

appropriate for compensation comparison purposes. With assistance from Mercer, we revised our peer group for
2016. Two companies (Aruba Networks and Emulex) were removed because they were acquired by other
companies, and three companies (Zebra Technologies, Silicon Graphics International and Quantum) were no
longer considered to be of comparable size with the Company. In order to ensure the peer group included an

38

appropriate number of companies, we added five companies that we believe are reasonable comparators from a
size and business characteristic standpoint. These five new peer companies are Cray Inc., Extreme Networks,
Inc., Infinera Corporation, Netsuite Inc., and Plantronics, Inc. The resulting peer group includes companies from
relevant technology subsectors with revenue that approximates one-half to two times our revenue that generally
share other relevant characteristics such as similarity in business models, multiple product categories and
divisions, and a global operations.

Executive Compensation Elements

For the 2016 fiscal year, the principal elements or components of compensation for the named executive

officers were: (1) base salary; (2) annual incentive award; and (3) long-term incentive awards.

y
x
o
r
P

In determining each element of executive compensation, the Compensation Committee considers a number
of factors, such as the executive’s employment experience, individual performance during the year, potential to
enhance long-term stockholder value, compensation history and prior equity awards. In addition, the
Compensation Committee considers the Company’s performance, competitive executive compensation practices,
and current compensation levels and types within the peer group. Since there are no fixed policies regarding the
amount and allocation for each element of executive compensation, the determination and composition of total
compensation is up to the discretion of the Compensation Committee and is decided in its judgment. However,
the amounts paid out under our incentive-based programs are determined based on the Company’s achievement
of quantitative performance goals as discussed in greater detail below.

The difference in the levels of compensation between the named executive officers reflects consideration of

the executive’s roles and responsibilities, the executive’s tenure with the Company as well as the other factors
mentioned above. The Compensation Committee considers the value of an individual’s entire compensation
package when establishing the appropriate levels of compensation for each element.

Base Salary

The Company provides the named executive officers with a fixed, annual base salary. In setting base
salaries for the named executive officers, the Compensation Committee considers a number of factors, including
the executive’s prior salary history, current compensation levels, and performance. In addition, the Compensation
Committee considers Company performance and salary levels within our peer group. There are no formulaic
increases. Instead, the Compensation Committee exercises its judgment and discretion when determining and
approving increases to the annual base salary of each named executive officer.

In February 2016, the Compensation Committee reviewed the base salary levels for Messrs. Gecht and Olin.

Mr. Gecht recommended, and the Compensation Committee approved, that the base salary for each named
executive officer for 2016 would remain at the same levels as 2015. Accordingly, Mr. Gecht’s base salary
remained at $620,000 (the same level as his salary has been each year since 2011), and Mr. Olin’s base salary
remained at $310,000 (the level established in January 2014 upon his appointment to a named executive officer
position). The Compensation Committee considered the base salary levels for each of the named executive
officers to be appropriate in light of each executive’s experience and responsibilities.

Annual Incentive Awards

2016 Annual Incentive Program

The Company believes that a significant portion of executive compensation should be directly related to the
Company’s overall financial performance, stock price performance, and other relevant financial factors that affect
stockholder value. Accordingly, the Company sets goals that link executive compensation to the Company’s
financial performance. The executive annual incentive program allows named executive officers to receive

39

incentive compensation if specified corporate performance measures are achieved. Payments under the annual
incentive program are generally contingent upon the executive’s continued employment through the vesting date,
subject to the terms of his employment agreement, and are determined by the Compensation Committee based on
performance against the pre-established goals. The Compensation Committee believes that the annual incentive
program provides an incentive that motivates and rewards executives to achieve specific financial objectives.

The target annual incentive award for each named executive officer is calculated as a percentage of his base

salary. The Compensation Committee sets these individual targets in its judgment based on its review of the
executive’s total compensation package, compensation levels at the peer group companies, and its assessment of
the executive’s past and expected future contributions.

In February 2016, the Compensation Committee approved the 2016 annual incentive program (the “2016

Program”) for the named executive officers and established their target annual incentive awards under the
program as set forth below. These target incentive compensation amounts remained unchanged from the prior
fiscal year.

105%
70%

In executing the program, the Compensation Committee approved grants of performance-based RSU awards
in February 2016 to each of the named executive officers (referred to in this discussion as “Target RSUs”). Fifty
percent of each executive’s Target RSU award was eligible to vest based on the Company’s non-GAAP operating
income for 2016 relative to the performance target established by the Compensation Committee, and the
remaining fifty percent of the award was eligible to vest based on the Company’s revenue (as determined in
accordance with GAAP) relative to the performance target. However, in each case, the vesting of the Target RSU
awards was also contingent on the Company’s achieving a minimum threshold for non-GAAP operating income
for 2016 determined by the Compensation Committee. The purpose of this non-GAAP operating income
threshold was to ensure sufficient profitability before providing for payouts based on revenue. The Target RSU
awards do not have an upside incentive opportunity and the maximum payout is capped at target.

To incentivize and reward executives for an above-target performance results, each named executive officer,

in addition to the Target RSU awards described above, each named executive officer was provided with an
opportunity to receive an “accelerator” annual incentive award if both the Company’s revenue and non-GAAP
operating income for 2016 exceeded the performance targets established by the Compensation Committee for the
Target RSU awards. The accelerator annual incentive awards were also granted in February 2016 in the form of
RSUs (referred to in this discussion as “accelerator RSUs”) payable in shares of the Company’s common stock if
the applicable performance goals were achieved. As with the Target RSUs, vesting of the accelerator RSUs was
based 50% on the Company’s non-GAAP operating income for 2016 and 50% on the Company’s revenue (as
determined in accordance with GAAP) for 2016.

For each named executive officer’s Target RSU awards, the number of RSUs subject to the award was
determined by dividing the executive’s target annual incentive amount (the target annual incentive percentage as
set forth in the table above multiplied by the executive’s annual base salary) by the Company’s closing stock
price on February 8, 2016. The number of RSUs subject to each named executive’s officer’s accelerator RSU
award was also determined by dividing the executive’s target annual incentive amount by the Company’s closing
stock price on February 8, 2016. Accordingly, the executive could vest in the number of Target RSUs
(determined based on 100% of his target annual incentive) for achievement of the targeted levels of performance,
and up to two times that amount (taking both the Target RSUs and accelerator RSUs into account) for
performance at the maximum levels. The maximum number of RSUs that may vest under each Target RSU
award and under each accelerator RSU award is 100% of the units subject to the award.

40

In structuring the Target and the accelerator components of the 2016 Program as awards of RSUs, the
Compensation Committee intended to provide a further link between our executives’ incentive compensation and
the value created for our stockholders. The Compensation Committee selected revenue and non-GAAP operating
income as the performance measures for the 2016 Program to create further incentives for management to focus
on the Company’s revenue growth and profitability because the Compensation Committee believes these metrics
are key to the Company’s long-term growth and success. For these purposes, non-GAAP operating income is
defined as operating income determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to remove the impact of the certain
expenses and gains, in each case consistent with the determination of non-GAAP operating income in our
financial reporting. These adjustments are specified in the Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Information section
of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The Compensation
Committee believes that these adjustments to operating income are appropriate for purposes of our incentive
programs and produce a better measure of the executives’ impact on the ongoing operating performance of the
Company over the corresponding year.

The performance targets selected by the Compensation Committee for the awards under the 2016 Program
were based on the Company’s operating plan, which was approved by the Board of Directors. For each metric,
the 2016 threshold performance level for the Target RSUs is significantly greater than the Company’s actual
performance level in 2015 as determined for purposes of our 2015 annual incentive program, and the target
performance level for the Target RSUs (which is also the threshold performance level for the accelerator RSUs)
is significantly higher than these 2015 performance levels.

The threshold and target performance levels for each of the Target RSUs and the accelerator RSUs under the

2016 Program are set forth in the table below.

With respect to the Target RSUs the minimum threshold for non-GAAP operating income for 2016

established by the Compensation Committee was $135 million. None of the RSUs granted under the 2016
Program would vest if this minimum threshold for non-GAAP operating income was not achieved, and none of
the RSUs that were tied to revenue would vest if the minimum threshold for revenue set forth above was not
achieved. If the minimum threshold level for non-GAAP operating income was achieved, the Target RSUs
related to non-GAAP income would vest with respect to between 0% and 100% of the units, with 0% of the units
vesting at the “Threshold” level for non-GAAP operating income in the table above and with the vesting
increasing on a pro-rata basis up to 100% of the units vesting if the “Target” level for non-GAAP operating
income in the table above were met or exceeded. If the minimum threshold level for both non-GAAP operating
income and revenue was achieved, the Target RSUs related to revenue would vest with respect to between 0%
and 100% of the units, with 0% of the units vesting at the “Threshold” level for revenue in the table above and
with the vesting increasing on a pro-rata basis up to 100% of the units vesting if the “Target” level for revenue in
the table above were met or exceeded. With respect to the accelerator RSUs, no portion of the award would vest
unless the Company met or exceeded the “Target” levels for both revenue and non-GAAP operating income set
forth above. If both of these “Target” levels were exceeded, between 0% and 100% of the accelerator RSUs
allocated to each performance metric would vest, with the portion of the accelerator RSUs allocated to a
performance metric that vest being interpolated pro-rata on a straight-line basis between 0% for achievement of
the “Target” level and 100% for achievement of the “Maximum” level.

In determining whether performance targets have been achieved, the Company’s performance results were
adjusted as follows: (a) bookings achieved in 2016 and revenue deferred from 2016 into a subsequent reporting

41

period were included in the calculation; and (b) revenue and non-GAAP operating income from each acquisition
completed during 2016 was also included in the calculation to the extent that such revenue and non-GAAP
operating income were generated through Company sales channels existing prior to the completion of each such
acquisition. The Compensation Committee believed these adjustments were appropriate to more accurately
reflect the Company’s performance during the fiscal year. In February 2017, the Compensation Committee
reviewed the Company’s total 2016 fiscal year revenue and non-GAAP operating income and determined that
although the Company had achieved record GAAP revenue for 2016, the Company’s performance achievement
was between the Threshold and Target performance levels for both measures for the Target RSU awards as
identified in the above table. For purposes of the 2016 Program, the Company’s 2016 revenue was $988 million
(as compared to approximately $992 million as determined under GAAP) and the Company’s non-GAAP
operating income was $155 million (as compared to non-GAAP operating income of approximately $148 million
as reflected in the Company’s financial reporting), with such operating income determined in each case based on
the adjustments to GAAP operating income provided in the Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Information section
of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Accordingly, the Compensation Committee determined that approximately 86% of the Target RSUs granted

to each of Messrs. Gecht and Olin under the 2016 Program (approximately 80% as to the revenue component of
these awards and approximately 92% as to the non-GAAP operating income component of the awards) had
vested and that no portion of the accelerator RSUs granted under the program had vested.

2016 Cash From Operations Performance Award

In February 2016, as part of its determination of annual awards and in response to feedback from

stockholders the Compensation Committee approved relatively smaller grants of performance-based RSU awards
to Messrs. Gecht and Olin. The Compensation Committee’s intent in granting the award was to align the interests
of the executives with a broader Company initiative focused on driving near-term cash flow through operational
improvements, while simultaneously driving Company revenue and operating income growth. These awards
were eligible to vest based on the Company’s cash from operations for 2016 as a percentage of the Company’s
non-GAAP net income for the year. For these purposes, “non-GAAP net income” means net income as
determined in accordance with GAAP subject to the same non-GAAP adjustments identified above for non-
GAAP operating income. The threshold and target levels, and the payout percentages, are set forth below. If the
Company achieves performance between the levels set forth below, the total percentage earned shall be
interpolated pro-rata on a straight-line basis between the two closest performance levels. The Company must
achieve the threshold cash from operations percentage of non-GAAP net income goal for any portion of the
award to vest. In no event will the award vest as to more than 100% of the RSUs subject to the award.

In February 2017, the Compensation Committee determined that the Company’s cash from operations as a

percentage of non-GAAP net income for 2016 was 97%, and accordingly, 100% of the units subject to the award
vested.

In keeping with the Company’s initiative focused on driving near-term cash flow through operational
improvements, the Compensation Committee continued to emphasize the importance of cash from operations by
including it as a performance measure under the long-term incentive awards granted to executives and other key
employees in August 2016 that cover the 2017-2019 performance period. The Compensation Committee also
determined in February 2017 that cash from operations growth as a percentage of non-GAAP net income would
serve as one of the metrics for the 2017 annual incentive program.

Long-Term Incentive Awards

The Company believes that equity ownership is important to closely align the interests of named executive

officers with those of Company stockholders and thereby promote incentives to achieve sustained creation of
stockholder value. For 2016, as in prior years, approximately two-thirds of each named executive officer’s annual
long-term incentive award is in the form of performance-based RSUs that vest based upon the Company’s
achievement of pre-established financial goals. We believe these performance-based RSUs create additional
incentives for executives to achieve goals considered important to the Company’s long-term growth and success.
In order to provide an incentive for continued employment, the vesting of performance-based RSUs is generally
subject to the executive’s continued employment through the time the applicable performance goals are achieved.
Time-based RSUs, which vest based on continued employment (typically over a three-year vesting schedule), are
included in the equity award mix to provide an enhanced retention incentive since these awards are not subject to
the risks of performance-based vesting conditions.

P

The Compensation Committee determines the value of each executive’s equity award in its judgment, taking

into consideration its subjective assessment of the executive’s individual performance, the retention value of
these grants and the executives’ prior long-term incentive awards, peer company long-term incentive awards and
total direct compensation data provided by Mercer, the number of shares remaining under the Company’s equity
incentive plan, the dilutive impact of equity award grants, and the Company’s philosophy that long-term equity
incentives should constitute a substantial portion of each executive’s total direct compensation. The number of
shares subject to each equity-based award granted to the executive officers in 2016 is reported in the Grants of
Plan-Based Awards Table below.

2016 Long-Term Incentive Awards

Our incentive metrics reflect our shareholders’ interests: Through our dialogue with shareholders and our
analysis of company and market performance, we have refined our incentive plan measures to more precisely
capture the balance of financial metrics that align with our strategic growth strategy – increasing revenue at a
pace that exceeds that of our peers, and maximizing EPS while maintaining a focus on cash flow growth.

In August 2016, the Compensation Committee approved a long-term incentive grant of performance-based
covering a three-year performance period (2017-2019) to each of our named executive officers. In addition, the
Compensation Committee approved a time-based award to each of our named executive officers.

Based on our dialogue with shareholders and shareholder advisor groups, we refined our long-term incentive

plan measures to more precisely capture the balance of financial metrics that align with our strategic growth
strategy and complement the outcomes rewarded through the annual incentive program. As such, we adjusted the
metrics in our long-term incentive plan to motivate and reward our executives to focus on the following
objectives;

•

•

Strong absolute and relative revenue growth—increase revenue at a pace that aligns with our operating
plan while exceeding that of broad industry averages

Strong earnings and cash flow growth—maximize EPS while simultaneously increasing cash flow

The performance-based RSUs comprise two-thirds of the total number of RSUs subject to the 2016 long-
term incentive award. Consistent with the first objective above, sixty percent of the performance-based portion of
the award vest based on the Company’s achievement of revenue growth targets over a three year period and also
based on the Company’s revenue growth over that period relative to a group of NASDAQ listed companies with
market capitalization between $500 million and $5 billion (the “Revenue Growth Performance RSUs”).
Consistent with the second objective above, the remaining forty percent of the performance-based RSUs vest
based on the Company’s achievement of non-GAAP EPS growth and cash from operations growth targets (the
“EPS Growth Performance RSUs”). For each performance-based RSU, the Company must achieve a threshold
performance level for any portion of the award to vest.

43

Revenue Growth Performance RSUs.

For the Revenue Growth Performance RSUs, the awards vest in

three equal annual installments based on the Company’s revenue growth measured on both an absolute and
relative basis over three performance periods—the first consisting of 2017, the second consisting of 2017 and
2018, and the third consisting of 2017, 2018, and 2019. The vesting percentage for each annual tranche is
determined as follows:

Revenue Achievement
Amount

Nasdaq Revenue
Growth Modifier

Percentage of
RSUs Vesting

For each performance period, a vesting percentage is determined based on the Company’s revenue growth

for that period against targets established by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee set the
performance goals at levels that it believed would be challenging but attainable if the Company performed at a
high level. The target level of revenue growth for each year during the performance period is set higher than the
median revenue growth level for 2016 for the NASDAQ companies within the market cap range identified
below. The threshold, target, and overachievement payout percentages are set forth below. If the Company
achieves performance between the levels set forth below, the total percentage earned shall be interpolated pro-
rata on a straight-line basis between the two closest performance levels. The Company must achieve the
threshold revenue growth goal for a particular performance period for any of the Revenue Growth Performance
RSUs related to that performance period to vest.

The vesting percentage is then subject to a modifier based on a comparison of the Company’s revenue

growth for each year in the applicable performance period over the prior calendar year (specifically, 2017
revenue growth increase when compared to 2016 revenue growth, 2018 revenue growth increase as compared to
2017 revenue growth, and 2019 revenue growth increase as compared to 2018 revenue growth for the first,
second and third tranches, respectively) as compared to the median growth over the prior calendar year for the
companies listed in the NASDAQ composite index with a market cap between $500 million and $5 billion at the
end of the relevant measurement period as set forth in the table below.

However, if the Company achieves the revenue growth threshold for the applicable performance period, the

application of the NASDAQ revenue growth modifier may not reduce the vesting percentage for that period
below 50%. Similarly, in no event may the vesting percentage for a performance period be greater than 150% (by
application of the NASDAQ revenue growth modifier or otherwise). If the Company’s revenue growth relative to
the median for the NASDAQ group is between the levels set forth above, the multiplier shall be interpolated pro-
rata on a straight-line basis between the two closest performance levels.

44

EPS Growth Performance RSUs.

For the EPS Growth Performance RSUs, the awards vest in three equal
annual installments based on the Company’s EPS and cash from operations over each of the three calendar years
2017, 2018, and 2019. The vesting percentage for each annual tranche is determined as follows:

EPS Growth
Achievement
Amount

Cash from Operations
Growth Modifier

Percentage of
RSUs Vesting

For each performance year, a vesting percentage is determined based on the Company’s growth in non-
GAAP EPS for that year over its non-GAAP EPS for the prior year. Non-GAAP EPS is subject to the same
adjustments described above for non-GAAP operating income. The Compensation Committee set the
performance goals at levels that it believed would be challenging but attainable if the Company performed at a
high level. The threshold, target, and overachievement payout percentages are set forth below. If the Company
achieves performance between the levels set forth below, the total percentage earned shall be interpolated pro-
rata on a straight-line basis between the two closest performance levels. The Company must achieve the
threshold EPS growth goal for a particular performance period for any of the EPS Growth Performance RSUs
related to that performance period to vest.

The vesting percentage is then subject to a modifier based on the rate of growth of the Company’s cash from

operations over the prior fiscal year compared with the rate of growth of its non-GAAP operating income (as
defined above) over the prior fiscal year. The threshold, target, and overachievement payout percentages are set
forth in the table below.

However, if the Company achieves the EPS growth threshold for the applicable performance year, the
application of the cash from operations growth modifier may not reduce the vesting percentage for that year
below 50%. Similarly, in no event may the vesting percentage for a performance year be greater than 150% (by
application of the cash from operations growth modifier or otherwise). If the Company’s cash from operations
growth relative to its non-GAAP operating income growth is between the levels set forth above, the multiplier
shall be interpolated pro-rata on a straight-line basis between the two closest performance levels.

Forfeiture of the First Tranche of 2015 Performance Awards

As described in the Company’s 2016 proxy statement, the Company granted performance-based RSU
awards to Messrs. Gecht and Olin in September 2015 that would vest based on the Company’s achievement of
revenue with at least 5% organic growth as compared to the preceding four-quarter period and at least 15% non-
GAAP operating margin during such four-quarter period (to be calculated in accordance with the methodology

performance period.

Vesting of 2014 Performance Awards

As described in the Company’s 2015 proxy statement, the Company granted performance-based RSU
awards to Messrs. Gecht and Olin in August 2014 that vested based on the Company’s achievement of specified

In February 2016, the Compensation Committee determined that, for the period from the first quarter of

fiscal 2015 through the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company’s revenue was $883 million and the
Company’s non-GAAP operating income was $128 million. Accordingly, the units subject to the first tranche of
each of these awards (15,128 units for Mr. Gecht; 3,883 units for Mr. Olin) vested upon the Compensation
Committee’s determination.

In February 2017, the Compensation Committee determined that, for the period from the first quarter of

fiscal 2016 through the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company’s revenue was $1.003 billion and the
Company’s non-GAAP operating income was $156 million. Accordingly, the units subject to the second tranche

Forfeiture of 2014 Performance Awards

As described in the Company’s 2015 proxy statement, the Company granted performance-based RSU
awards to Mr. Olin in January 2014 and to Mr. Gecht in August 2014 that would vest only if the Company
achieved at least $1 billion in revenue and $2.50 in non-GAAP EPS over any four consecutive quarters on or
before December 31, 2016. In February 2017, the Compensation Committee determined that the performance
goals for the first tranche of the award had not been achieved. Accordingly, both Mr. Gecht’s award (consisting
of 22,691 units) and Mr. Olin’s award (consisting of 12, 909 units) were deemed forfeited as of the last day of the
performance period.

Vesting of 2013 Performance Awards

As described in the Company’s 2014 proxy statement, the Company granted performance-based RSU
awards to Messrs. Gecht and Olin in August 2013. The vesting of each of these awards is contingent on the
Company’s achievement of specified levels of revenue and non-GAAP operating income (to be calculated in

Committee determined that the Company’s revenue was $883 million and the Company’s non-GAAP operating
income was $128 million. Accordingly, the units subject to the third tranche of each of these awards (29,600
units for Mr. Gecht; 5,250 units for Mr. Olin) vested upon the Compensation Committee’s determination.

Vesting of 2009 Performance-Based Option

As previously disclosed in the Company’s 2009 proxy statement, the Company granted Mr. Gecht a
performance-based option during 2009 that would vest based on the Company’s annual return on equity
percentage, on a non-GAAP basis, (the “Annual ROE Percentage”), as compared with the Company’s Annual
ROE Percentage for its 2008 fiscal year, which was 7.1% (the “2008 ROE Percentage”) according to the
following schedule (for these purposes, non-GAAP return on equity is defined as non-GAAP net income (as
defined above) divided by stockholders’ equity):

The first tranche of the option (representing 20% of the total grant) vested in February 2012. In February
2016, the Compensation Committee determined that the second tranche of the option (representing 20% of the
total grant) vested based on the Company’s Annual ROE Percentage of 11.9% for the 2015 fiscal year. This
option expired in August 2016, and the remaining three tranches of the option terminated on the expiration date.

Severance Arrangements

Each of the named executive officers currently employed by the Company is a party to an employment
agreement with the Company that provides for severance benefits under certain events, such as a termination
without cause or the executive resigning for good reason. Because the Company believes that a resignation by an
executive for good reason (or constructive termination) is conceptually the same as an actual termination by the
Company without cause, the Company believes it is appropriate to provide severance benefits following such a
constructive termination of the executive’s employment.

The employment agreements are designed to promote stability and continuity of senior management. In
addition, the Company recognizes that the possibility of a change of control may exist from time to time, and that
this possibility, and the uncertainty and questions it may raise among management, may result in the departure or
distraction of management personnel to the detriment of the Company and its stockholders. Accordingly, the
Compensation Committee has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to encourage the continued
attention and dedication of members of the Company’s management to their assigned duties. As a result, the
employment agreements include provisions relating to the payment of severance benefits under certain
circumstances in the event of a change of control. Under the change of control provisions, in order for severance
benefits to be triggered, an executive must be involuntarily terminated without cause or the executive must leave
for good reason within 24 months after a change of control.

Information regarding the severance benefits for the named executive officers under their employment

agreements is provided under the headings “Employment Agreements” and “Potential Payments upon
Termination or Change of Control” on pages 56 through 57 of this Proxy Statement.

Other Elements of Compensation and Perquisites

We do not provide any material perquisites to our executive officers. Executives are eligible to participate in
the Company’s 401(k) savings plan on the same terms and conditions as other Company employees. In addition,
our executive officers are eligible to participate in the Company’s group health and welfare plans on the same
terms and conditions as other Company employees.

Tax Considerations

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows a tax deduction to public corporations for

compensation over $1 million paid for any fiscal year to each of the corporation’s named executive officers,
other than the chief financial officer, as of the end of the fiscal year. However, Section 162(m) exempts
qualifying performance-based compensation from the deduction limit if certain requirements are met. Although
the Compensation Committee considers the impact of Section 162(m) when developing and implementing
executive compensation programs, the Compensation Committee believes that it is important and in the best
interests of stockholders to preserve flexibility in designing compensation programs. Accordingly, the
Compensation Committee retains discretion to approve compensation arrangements for executive officers that
are not fully deductible. Further, because of ambiguities and uncertainties as to the application and interpretation
of Section 162(m) and the regulations issued thereunder, no assurance can be given, notwithstanding the
Compensation Committee’s efforts, that compensation intended to satisfy the requirements for deductibility
under Section 162(m) does in fact do so.

Stock Ownership Policy

In February 2017, the Board of Directors revised our Executive Stock Ownership Policy to apply to all of

our executive officers (as opposed to only the Chief Executive Officer). Under the revised policy, the Chief
Executive Officer should own Company shares having an aggregate value of at least five times his or her then-
effective annual base salary, and each other executive officer should own Company shares having an aggregate
value of at least two times his or her then-effective annual base salary. The executive should achieve this
minimum share ownership position within three years of being appointed to an executive position. For these
purposes, shares owned outright by the executive, as well as shares owned in trust for his or her benefit or by his
or her family members and shares subject to outstanding restricted stock and RSU awards subject to time-based
vesting requirements held by the executive, are considered to be owned by the executive. Unvested RSUs subject
to performance-based vesting requirements and vested or unvested stock options are not taken into account in
determining the executive’s beneficial ownership. Mr. Gecht’s and Mr. Olin’s current equity holdings each
exceed their required ownership levels under the policy.

P

Stock Holding Period Requirements

In February 2017, our Board of Directors adopted a requirement that each of our executive officers hold any

vested shares they acquire pursuant to their equity awards granted on or after January 1, 2016 (after satisfying
applicable tax withholding) for at least three years (or, if earlier, termination of the executive’s employment with
us). This holding period requirement is in addition to the stock ownership requirements described above.

Clawback Policy

The Board of Directors has adopted a clawback policy that provides for the Company, in the discretion of
the Board of Directors or as required by law or NASDAQ listing standards, to cancel or recover performance-
based compensation, whether in the form of cash or equity-based awards, from its executive officers in the event
the Company’s publicly-reported financial results are restated due to material noncompliance with any financial
reporting requirement under applicable securities laws and such compensation was received during the last three
complete fiscal years and would not have been paid under the restated financial results.

2017 Compensation Decisions

In February 2017, the Compensation Committee approved the 2017 annual incentive program (the “2017

Program”) for Messrs. Gecht and Olin. As under the 2016 Program, each executive is eligible to receive
incentive compensation payable in shares of our common stock based upon the Company’s financial
performance relative to targets established by the Compensation Committee. In execution of the program, the
Compensation Committee approved grants of performance-based RSUs in February 2017 to each executive, with
the target number of RSUs subject to each executive’s award determined by dividing the executive’s target
annual incentive award amount by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on February 17, 2017. The
maximum number of RSUs that may vest under each executive’s award is 200% of the executive’s target number
of RSUs. We believe structuring the executives’ annual incentive awards as performance-based RSUs increases
the alignment of the executives’ interests with those of stockholders since the ultimate value realized by the
executive depends on both our operating financial performance and stock price performance over the course of
the year.

The performance metrics under the 2017 Program for each named executive officer will be the Company’s

revenue (weighted 40%), non-GAAP operating income (weighted 40%), and cash from operations as a
percentage of non-GAAP net income (weighted 20%). The Compensation Committee established threshold,
target, and overachievement levels for each metric, with 0% vesting at the applicable threshold level and
increasing on a pro-rata, straight-line basis up to 100% vesting at the applicable target level and 200% vesting at
or above the applicable overachievement level. However, no portion of the named executive officer’s RSUs

49

(including the RSUs allocated to the revenue and cash from operations metrics) will vest if the Company does
not achieve the minimum threshold for non-GAAP operating income.

In February 2017, the Compensation Committee reviewed the base pay and incentive opportunities for our
named executive officers and determined that the target annual incentive award amount for Mr. Gecht would be
increased to 130% of his base salary and the target annual incentive award amount for Mr. Olin would be
increased to 80% of his base salary. The Compensation Committee determined that an increase in his bonus
opportunity was appropriate in light of Mr. Gecht’s continued leadership of the Company leading to record
revenue in 2016, the Company’s goals for 2017 and beyond, and the fact that Mr. Gecht’s base salary has not
been adjusted since 2011. In February 2017, the Compensation Committee also approved an increase in
Mr. Olin’s annual base salary from $310,000 (the level established in January 2014 upon his appointment to a
named executive officer position) to $370,000. In April 2017, Mr. Olin requested that the increase in his base
salary be suspended effective May 1, 2017 until such time as the Company achieves a fiscal quarter of year-over-
year revenue growth and non-GAAP earnings per share income growth (in each case, as compared with the
corresponding quarter of the preceding fiscal year). The Compensation Committee approved the request.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of the Compensation Committee has at any time been one of the Company’s executive

officers or employees or had any relationships requiring disclosure by the Company under the SEC rules
requiring disclosure of certain relationships and related party transactions. None of the Company’s executive
officers currently serves, or in the past fiscal year has served, as a member of the board of directors or
compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on the Board of Directors
or Compensation Committee.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee of the Company has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion

and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K with management and, based on such review and
discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation
Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement.

(1) The annual incentive program for our named executive officers includes a “Target” opportunity and an “accelerator”

opportunity that is payable if the target performance levels are exceeded. As described in the Compensation Discussion
and Analysis above, both opportunities were granted in the form of RSUs for 2016 and 2015. For 2014, the Target bonus
opportunity was granted as RSUs, and while the accelerator component was originally structured as a cash opportunity,
the executives requested and the Compensation Committee approved the payment of the accelerator component in
common stock. The portion of each opportunity granted as RSUs is reported in the “Stock Awards” column for each
applicable year as described in footnotes (2) and (3) below (excluding the accelerator component for 2014, which was
originally granted as a cash incentive award and is reflected in the “Non-equity incentive plan compensation” column of
the table above.

(2) The amounts reported in the “Stock awards” column represent the aggregate grant date fair value, determined in

accordance with ASC 718, of equity-based awards granted during the applicable year. See Note 12 of the consolidated
financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 regarding assumptions
underlying the valuation of equity awards.

(3) The amounts reported in the “Stock awards” column of the table above include the aggregate grant date fair value of

performance-based and market-based awards granted to the named executive officers in each of these years calculated
based on the probable outcome of the applicable performance conditions determined as of the grant date in accordance
with ASC 718. For the 2016 RSU awards excluding the “Target” RSU awards, the grant date fair value based on the
probable outcome of the performance-based conditions applicable to the awards and the grant date fair value of these
awards assuming that the highest level of performance conditions would be achieved were $4,752,271 and $5,567,281,
respectively, for Mr. Gecht and $1,012,608 and $1,220,783, respectively for Mr. Olin. For the 2015 accelerator RSU
awards, the grant date fair value based on the probable outcome of the performance-based conditions applicable to the
awards and the grant date fair value of these awards assuming that the highest level of performance conditions would be
achieved were $162,694 and $325,387, respectively, for Mr. Gecht and $54,231 and $108,462, respectively for Mr. Olin.
For the 2014 awards, the grant date fair value was determined assuming that the highest performance level would be
achieved.

(4) “All other compensation” consists of 401(k) employer matching contributions for each executive.

(1) “Threshold,” “Target,” and “Maximum” columns in the “Estimated Future Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards” columns for awards
granted in February 2016 represent amounts payable under our 2016 annual incentive program. Threshold achievement results in no bonus
payout, while Target and Maximum achievement results in 100% bonus payout, with pro rata payouts for achievement between these Threshold
and Target levels.

(2) Grant Date Fair Value of Stock Awards represents the fair value of the applicable award based on, in the case of performance-based and market-
based awards, the probable outcome of the performance conditions applicable to the award determined as of the grant date in accordance with
ASC 718. See Note 12 of the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016
regarding assumptions underlying the valuation of equity awards.

(3) These “Target” RSUs vest based on achievement of 2016 revenue targets with pro rata vesting between the threshold performance level of

$940 million (0% vesting) and the target performance lewvel of $ 1.0 billion (100% vesting).

(4) These “Target” RSUs vest based on achievement of 2016 non-GAAP operating income targets with pro rata vesting between the threshold

performance level of $135 million (0% vesting) and the target performance level of $157 million (100% vesting). As described in more detail in
the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, “non-GAAP operating income” is defined as operating income determined in accordance with
GAAP, adjusted to remove the impact of certain expenses and gains, in each case consistent with the determination of non-GAAP operating
income in our financial reporting. These adjustments are specified in the Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Information section of our Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2016.

(5) These “accelerator” RSUs vest based on achievement of 2016 revenue targets with pro rata vesting between the threshold performance level of

$1.0 billion (0% vesting) and the target performance level of $ 1.05 billion (100% vesting).

(6) These “accelerator” RSUs vest based on achievement of 2016 non-GAAP operating income targets with pro rata vesting between the threshold

performance level of $157 million (0% vesting) and the target performance level of $170 million (100% vesting).

(7) These RSUs vest based on achievement of 2016 cash from operations targets as a percentage of non-GAAP net income with pro rata vesting
between the threshold performance level of 66% (0% vesting) and the target performance level of 90% (100% vesting). As described in more
detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, “non-GAAP net income” is defined as net income determined in accordance with GAAP,
adjusted to remove the impact of certain expenses and gains, and the tax effect of these adjustments, in each case consistent with the
determination of non-GAAP net income in our financial reporting. These adjustments are specified in the Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial
Information section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2016. “Cash from operations” is
defined as cash flows from operating activities as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended
December 31, 2016.

(8) These RSUs will vest based on achievement of revenue growth targets during the three-year period comprised of our 2017, 2018 and 2019 fiscal
years, with the vesting percentage subject to a modifier based on our revenue growth levels during that period relative to the revenue growth
levels for the companies listed in the NASDAQ composite index with a market capitalization between $500 million and $5 billion. The vesting of
the award will range from 0% to 150% of the target number of RSUs. In each case, 50% of the Target number of RSUs will vest at the Threshold
level with pro rata vesting on a straight line basis up to the Target level and further vesting on a straight line basis up to the Maximum level
shown in the table above.

(9) These RSUs will vest based on achievement of non-GAAP earnings per share growth targets during the three-year period comprised of the

Company’s 2017, 2018 and 2019 fiscal years, with the vesting percentage subject to a modifier based on our cash from operations growth levels
(relative to the rate of growth of our non-GAAP operating income) during that period. The vesting of the award will range from 0% to 150% of
the target number of RSUs. In each case, 50% of the Target number of RSUs will vest at the Threshold level with pro rata vesting on a straight
line basis up to the Target level and further vesting on a straight line basis up to the Maximum level shown in the table above. As described in
more detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, “non-GAAP earnings per share” is defined as net income determined in accordance
with GAAP, adjusted to remove the impact of certain expenses and gains, and the tax effect of these adjustments, divided by the weighted average
number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period as more fully defined in Note 2—Earnings Per
Share of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. These
adjustments are specified in the Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Information section of our Annual Reports on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for
each applicable year. “Cash from operations” is defined as cash flows from operating activities as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
filed with the SEC for each applicable year. “Cash from operations” is defined as cash flows from operating activities as reported in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2016.

(10) These RSUs vest with respect to one-third of the units on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the date of grant.

Description of Plan-Based Awards

Equity Incentive Plan Awards. Each of the equity incentive awards reported in the above table was granted

under, and is subject to, the terms of the Company’s 2009 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2009 Plan”). The
2009 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has authority to
interpret the plan provisions and make all required determinations under the 2009 Plan. Awards granted under the
2009 Plan are generally only transferable to a beneficiary of a named executive officer upon his death or, in
certain cases, to family members for tax or estate planning purposes.

Under the terms of the 2009 Plan, if there is a change in control of the Company and the Compensation
Committee does not provide for the substitution, assumption, exchange, or other continuation of the outstanding
awards, each named executive officer’s outstanding awards granted under the plan will generally become fully
vested and, in the case of options, exercisable. Any options that become vested in connection with a change in
control generally must be exercised prior to the change in control or they will be cancelled in exchange for the
right to receive a cash payment in connection with the change in control transaction.

In addition, each named executive officer may be entitled to accelerated vesting of his outstanding equity-

based awards upon certain terminations of employment with the Company and/or a change in control of the
Company. The terms of this accelerated vesting are described in the “Potential Payments upon Termination or
Change in Control” section below.

The vesting requirements applicable to each equity award granted to the named executive officers are
described in the footnotes to the table above and in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. RSUs are
payable on vesting in an equal number of shares of the Company’s common stock. The named executive officers
do not have the right to vote or dispose of the RSUs and do not have any dividend rights with respect to the
RSUs.

(1) One-third of the RSUs vest on the first, second, and third anniversary of the date of grant.
(2) Each option vests with respect to 25% of the shares subject thereto on the first anniversary of the date of grant and then at a rate of 2.5%

of the total number of shares subject to the option per month over the next thirty months.

(3) The RSUs reported in columns (g) and (h) vest based on achievement of $1.0 billion in revenue and $145 million in non-GAAP

operating income targets during any four consecutive quarters between the first quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2016. The
Compensation Committee certified on February 9, 2017 that these RSUs vested based on actual 2016 revenue of $1.003 billion and 2016
non-GAAP operating income of $156 million (calculated as described in more detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis). The
RSUs reported in columns (i) and (j) will vest upon achievement of $1.1 billion in revenue and $160 million in non-GAAP operating
income during any four consecutive quarters between the first quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2017.

(4) These RSUs vest based on achievement of $1.1 billion in revenue during any four consecutive quarters between the first quarter of 2015
and the fourth quarter of 2017. An additional number of RSUs equal to this number of RSUs will vest upon achievement of $1.2 billion
in revenue during any four consecutive quarters between the first quarter of 2015 and the fourth quarter of 2018. Vesting during any of
the aforementioned four consecutive quarter periods is contingent on also achieving at least 5% revenue growth (excluding revenue
related to acquisitions) compared to the preceding four consecutive quarters and at least 15% non-GAAP operating margin during the
four consecutive quarters that the revenue goal is achieved.

(5) These RSUs will vest when the average closing stock price during 90 consecutive trading days equals or exceeds $53.00. An additional

number of RSUs equal to this number of RSUs will vest when the average closing stock price over a period of 90 consecutive trading
days equals or exceeds $60.00.

(6) These RSUs will vest when the average closing stock price during 90 consecutive trading days equals or exceeds $50.00. An additional

number of RSUs equal to this number of RSUs will vest when the average closing stock price over a period of 90 consecutive trading

days equals or exceeds $56.00. An additional number of RSUs equal to this number of RSUs will vest when the average closing stock
price over a period of 90 consecutive trading days equals or exceeds $62.00.

(7) These RSUs vest based on achievement of 2016 revenue targets with pro rata vesting between the threshold performance level of

$940 million (0% vesting) and the target performance level of $ 1.0 billion (100% vesting). The Compensation Committee certified on
February 9, 2017 that 80% of these RSUs vested on that date based on actual 2016 revenue of $ 988 million (calculated as described in
more detail in the “Annual Incentive Program” section of the Compensation Discussion and Analysis).

(8) These RSUs vest based on achievement of 2016 non-GAAP operating income targets with pro rata vesting between the threshold

performance level of $135 million (0% vesting) and the target performance level of $157 million (100% vesting). The Compensation
Committee certified on February 9, 2017 that 92% of these RSUs vested on that date based on actual 2016 non-GAAP operating income
of $155 million (calculated as described in more detail in the “Annual Incentive Program” section of the Compensation Discussion and
Analysis. As described in more detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, “non-GAAP operating income” is defined as
operating income determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to remove the impact of certain expenses and gains, in each case
consistent with the determination of non-GAAP operating income in our financial reporting. These adjustments are specified in the
Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Information section of our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended
December 31, 2016.

(9) These RSUs vest based on achievement of 2016 cash from operations targets as a percentage of non-GAAP net income with pro rata
vesting between the threshold performance level of 66% (0% vesting) and the target performance level of 90% (100% vesting). The
Compensation Committee certified on February 9, 2017 that the actual 2016 cash from operations as percentage of non-GAAP net
income was 97% (calculated as described in more detail in the “2016 Cash from Operations Performance Award” section of the
Compensation Discussion and Analysis, resulting in 100% of the RSUs subject to the award vesting on that date. As described in more
detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, “non-GAAP net income” is defined as net income determined in accordance with
GAAP, adjusted to remove the impact of certain expenses and gains, and the tax effect of these adjustments, in each case consistent with
the determination of non-GAAP net income in our financial reporting. These adjustments are specified in the Unaudited Non-GAAP
Financial Information section of our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2016. “Cash from
operations” is defined as cash flows from operating activities as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the
year ended December 31, 2016.

(10) These RSUs will vest based on achievement of revenue growth targets during the three-year period comprised of our 2017, 2018 and

2019 fiscal years, with the vesting percentage subject to a modifier based on our revenue growth levels during that period relative to the
revenue growth levels for the companies listed in the NASDAQ composite index with a market capitalization between $500 million and
$5 billion. The vesting of the award will range from 0% to 150% of the target number of RSUs. The number of RSUs reflected in the
table represents the number of RSUs that would be eligible to vest assuming the threshold performance level is achieved for each
performance period. In each case, 50% of the Target number of RSUs will vest at the Threshold level with pro rata vesting on a straight
line basis up to the Target level and further vesting on a straight line basis up to the Maximum level shown in the table above.

(11) These RSUs will vest based on achievement of non-GAAP earnings per share growth targets during the three-year period comprised of

our 2017, 2018 and 2019 fiscal years, with the vesting percentage subject to a modifier based on our+ cash from operations growth levels
(relative to the rate of growth of our non-GAAP operating income) during that period. The vesting of the award will range from 0% to
150% of the target number of RSUs. The number of RSUs reflected in the table represents the number of RSUs that would be eligible to
vest assuming the threshold performance level is achieved for each performance period. In each case, 50% of the Target number of RSUs
will vest at the Threshold level with pro rata vesting on a straight line basis up to the Target level and further vesting on a straight line
basis up to the Maximum level shown in the table above. As described in more detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis,
“non-GAAP earnings per share” is defined as net income determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to remove the impact of certain
expenses and gains, and the tax effect of these adjustments, divided by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive
potential common shares outstanding during the period as more fully defined in Note 2—Earnings Per Share of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. These adjustments are
specified in the Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Information section of our Annual Reports on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the
applicable year.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change of Control

Potential payments that may be made to the Company’s named executive officers upon a termination of
employment or a change of control, pursuant to their employment agreements or otherwise, are set forth below.

The amounts presented below are estimates determined assuming that the termination of employment and/or

change in control triggering payment of these benefits occurred on the last business day of 2016, with benefits
being valued using the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock on such date ($43.86) and determined
based on each executive’s employment agreement in effect on December 31, 2016. Receipt of these benefits is
subject to the execution of a separation agreement and full release of all claims by the named executive officer.
The executive’s actual benefits upon a termination or a change of control or may be different from those
described below if such event were to occur on any other date or at any other price, or if any assumption is not
factually correct.

(1) The amounts shown are the lump sum severance payments that consist of 24 months of base salary for
Mr. Gecht and 12 months of base salary for Mr. Olin, plus an amount equal to the value of the annual
incentive awards (including the vesting of any equity awards granted under the annual incentive program)
that the named executive officer would have earned for 2016 based upon the level of performance targets
applicable to the annual incentive awards that was actually attained for 2016. If the named executive
officer’s employment is terminated during the year by the Company without cause or by the executive for
good reason, the annual incentive awards are prorated for the portion of the year that the named executive
officer was with the Company.

(2) Messrs. Gecht and Olin would each be entitled to outplacement services up to a maximum of $35,000.
(3) Messrs. Gecht and Olin would each be entitled to premium reimbursement for health insurance coverage

under COBRA for Mr. Gecht for up to 18 months and for Mr. Olin for up to 12 months.

(4) Other than RSU awards related to the 2016 annual incentive program, which would be treated as described
above in Note 1, Messrs. Gecht and Olin would be entitled to accelerated vesting of options and RSUs with
respect to that number of shares that would otherwise have vested during the six month period following the
termination date. For time-based options and RSUs that vest on an annual basis, credit is given as if the
vesting accrued monthly. Performance awards that vest on any other basis will remain outstanding until the
end of the applicable performance period and will vest based on the Company’s actual performance for that
period on a prorated basis (with the executive being given credit for up to six additional months of service
for purposes of the pro-ration). The value of the accelerated options and RSUs is calculated based on the
Company’s closing stock price at December 30, 2016 of $43.86 per share, less the exercise price with
respect to accelerated options. The number of stock options and RSUs subject to acceleration for each

being deemed met at maximum performance levels, excluding equity awards granted under the annual
incentive program, which would be treated as described above in Note 1. The value of the accelerated
options and RSUs is calculated based on the Company’s closing stock price at December 30, 2016 of $43.86
per share, less the exercise price with respect to accelerated options. The number of stock options and RSUs

Compensation Risk Assessment

The Company does not believe that its compensation programs encourage unnecessary risk-taking that could

have a material adverse effect on the Company as a whole. In 2016, the Compensation Committee, with the
assistance of Mercer, reviewed the elements of (i) the Company’s compensation programs and practices for all
employees and (ii) of executive compensation for fiscal year 2016 to determine whether any portion of the
program encouraged excessive risk taking. Following that review, the Compensation Committee does not believe

58

that the Company’s compensation programs and practices applicable to employees create risks that are
reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The Compensation Committee also believes that the mix and design of the elements of our executive
compensation program do not encourage management to take excessive risks, based on the following factors:

• Compensation is allocated among base salaries, annual incentive awards, and long-term incentive

awards. Base salaries are fixed to provide executives with a stable cash income, which allows them to
focus on the Company’s issues and objectives as a whole. Annual incentive awards and long-term
incentive awards are designed to both reward the named executive officers for the Company’s overall
performance and align interests with those of our stockholders;

y
x
o
r
P

• Our annual incentive program is intended to balance risk and encourage our named executive officers
to focus on specific short-term goals important to our success. While our annual incentive program is
based on achievement of annual goals, and annual goals could encourage the taking of short-term risks
at the expense of long-term results, our named executive officers’ annual incentive awards are
determined based on a combination of objective corporate performance criteria as described above. In
addition, threshold and target levels of performance, payouts at multiple levels of performance, and
evaluation of performance based on objective measures are intended to assist in mitigating excessive
risk taking. Finally, the awards under our annual incentive program are subject to maximum payout
levels;

• Awards to our named executive officers under our annual incentive compensation program for fiscal
year 2016 were made in the form of performance-based RSU awards that help further align named
executive officers’ interests with those of our stockholders because the ultimate value of the awards is
tied to the Company’s stock price. The performance measures used to determine vesting and payment
of awards to our named executive officers are Company-wide measures only, as opposed to measures
linked to the performance of a particular business segment. Applying Company-wide performance
measures is designed to encourage our named executive officers to make decisions that are in the best
long-term interests of the Company and our stockholders;

• Awards to our named executive officers under our long-term incentive program in 2016 consisted of
approximately two-thirds performance-based RSUs and approximately one-third time-based RSUs.
The value of RSUs is tied directly to our stock price to help further align our executives’ interests with
those of our stockholders. As with the performance-based RSUs granted under our annual incentive
program, the performance awards granted under our long-term incentive program vest based on the
achievement of Company-wide performance measures in addition to continued employment
requirements and are intended to both provide a retention incentive and enhance executives’ focus on
specific financial goals considered important to the Company’s long-term growth. Because these time-
based and performance-based awards will generally remain outstanding for a period of years, they help
ensure that executives always have significant value tied to delivering long-term stockholder value; and

• As of April 24, 2017, each of our executive officers had satisfied our stock ownership requirements,

which we believe helps to significantly align their interests with those of our stockholders.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

As more fully described in its Charter, the Audit Committee oversees the accounting and financial reporting

processes of the Company, the audits of the financial statements of the Company and assists the Board of
Directors in oversight and monitoring of the integrity of the Company’s financial statements, the Company’s
compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the independent auditor’s qualifications, independence and
performance, and the Company’s systems of internal controls.

59

In the performance of its oversight function, the Audit Committee has reviewed the Company’s audited
financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, included in the Company’s Annual Report on
Form 10-K for that year.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed these audited financial statements and overall financial

reporting process, including the Company’s system of internal controls, with management of the Company.

The Audit Committee has discussed with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm,

Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”), the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing
Standards 1301, Communications With Audit Committees, which includes, among other items, matters related to
the conduct of the audit of the Company’s financial statements.

The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from Deloitte required by

applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit
Committee concerning independence and has discussed with Deloitte the independence of Deloitte from the
Company.

Based on the review and discussions referred to above in this Report, the Audit Committee recommended to

the Company’s Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for filing with the SEC.

selected to participate in this Plan by the Administrator; provided, however, that a person who is otherwise
an Eligible Person under clause (c) above may participate in this Plan only if such participation would not
adversely affect either the Company’s eligibility to use Form S-8 to register under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the offering and sale of shares issuable under this Plan by the
Company or the Company’s compliance with any other applicable laws. An Eligible Person who has been
granted an award (a “participant”) may, if otherwise eligible, be granted additional awards if the
Administrator shall so determine. As used herein, “Subsidiary” means any corporation or other entity a
majority of whose outstanding voting stock or voting power is beneficially owned directly or indirectly by

3. PLAN ADMINISTRATION

3.1 The Administrator. This Plan shall be administered by and all awards under this Plan shall be

authorized by the Administrator. The “Administrator” means the Board or one or more committees

Bylaws of the Company or the applicable charter of any Administrator: (a) a majority of the members
of the acting Administrator shall constitute a quorum, and (b) the vote of a majority of the members
present assuming the presence of a quorum or the unanimous written consent of the members of the
Administrator shall constitute action by the acting Administrator.

3.2 Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the express provisions of this Plan, the Administrator is

authorized and empowered to do all things necessary or desirable in connection with the authorization

1

of awards and the administration of this Plan (in the case of a committee or delegation to one or more

services or other events of a personal nature) subject to any required consent under Section 8.6.5;

(g) adjust the number of shares of Common Stock subject to any award, adjust the price of any or all

such circumstances as the Administrator may deem appropriate, in each case subject to Sections 4
and 8.6 (and subject to the no repricing provision below);

(h) determine the date of grant of an award, which may be a designated date after but not before the
date of the Administrator’s action to approve the award (unless otherwise designated by the
Administrator, the date of grant of an award shall be the date upon which the Administrator took
the action approving the award);

(i)

(j)

determine whether, and the extent to which, adjustments are required pursuant to Section 7.1
hereof and take any other actions contemplated by Section 7 in connection with the occurrence of
an event of the type described in Section 7;

acquire or settle (subject to Sections 7 and 8.6) rights under awards in cash, stock of equivalent
value, or other consideration (subject to the no repricing provision below); and

(k) determine the fair market value of the Common Stock or awards under this Plan from time to time

and/or the manner in which such value will be determined.

3.3 Prohibition on Repricing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.2 and except for an
adjustment pursuant to Section 7.1 or a repricing approved by stockholders, in no case may the
Administrator (1) amend an outstanding stock option or SAR to reduce the exercise price or base price

2

of the award, (2) cancel, exchange, or surrender an outstanding stock option or SAR in exchange for
cash or other awards for the purpose of repricing the award, or (3) cancel, exchange, or surrender an

3.4 Minimum Vesting Requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except as provided in the next

sentence, all awards granted under this Plan shall be subject to a minimum vesting requirement of one
year, and no portion of any such award may vest earlier than the first anniversary of the grant date of
the award (the “Minimum Vesting Requirement”). The Minimum Vesting Requirement shall not
apply to 5% of the total number of shares available under this Plan, and shall not limit or restrict the
Administrator’s discretion to accelerate the vesting of any award in circumstances it determines to be
appropriate.

3.5 Binding Determinations. Any determination or other action taken by, or inaction of, the Company, any

Subsidiary, or the Administrator relating or pursuant to this Plan (or any award made under this Plan)
and within its authority hereunder or under applicable law shall be within the absolute discretion of that
entity or body and shall be conclusive and binding upon all persons. Neither the Board nor any Board
committee, nor any member thereof or person acting at the direction thereof, shall be liable for any act,
omission, interpretation, construction or determination made in good faith in connection with this Plan
(or any award made under this Plan), and all such persons shall be entitled to indemnification and
reimbursement by the Company in respect of any claim, loss, damage or expense (including, without
limitation, attorneys’ fees) arising or resulting therefrom to the fullest extent permitted by law and/or
under any directors and officers liability insurance coverage that may be in effect from time to time.
Neither the Board nor any other Administrator, nor any member thereof or person acting at the
direction thereof, nor the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be liable for any damages of a
participant should an option intended as an ISO (as defined below) fail to meet the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to ISOs, should any other
award(s) fail to qualify for any intended tax treatment, should any award grant or other action with
respect thereto not satisfy Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, or otherwise for any tax or other liability imposed on a participant with respect to an award.

3.6 Reliance on Experts. In making any determination or in taking or not taking any action under this Plan,
the Administrator may obtain and may rely upon the advice of experts, including employees and
professional advisors to the Company. No director, officer or agent of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries shall be liable for any such action or determination taken or made or omitted in good faith.

3.7 Delegation. The Administrator may delegate ministerial, non-discretionary functions to individuals

who are officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to third parties.

4. SHARES OF COMMON STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN; SHARE LIMITS

4.1 Shares Available. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, the capital stock that may be delivered
under this Plan shall be shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued Common Stock and any
shares of its Common Stock held as treasury shares. For purposes of this Plan, “Common Stock” shall
mean the common stock of the Company and such other securities or property as may become the
subject of awards under this Plan, or may become subject to such awards, pursuant to an adjustment
made under Section 7.1.

4.2 Aggregate Share Limit. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be delivered

pursuant to awards granted to Eligible Persons under this Plan (the “Share Limit”) is equal to the sum
of the following:

(1) 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock, plus

3

(2)

(3)

(4)

the number of shares of Common Stock available for additional award grant purposes under the
Company’s 2009 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2009 Plan”) as of the date of stockholder
approval of this Plan (the “Stockholder Approval Date”) and determined immediately prior to the
termination of the authority to grant new awards under the 2009 Plan as of the Stockholder
Approval Date, plus

the number of any shares subject to stock options granted under the 2009 Plan and outstanding on
the Stockholder Approval Date which expire, or for any reason are cancelled or terminated, after
the Stockholder Approval Date without being exercised, plus;

the number of any shares subject to restricted stock unit awards granted under the 2009 Plan that
are outstanding and unvested on the Stockholder Approval Date that are forfeited, terminated,
cancelled or otherwise reacquired by the Company without having become vested.

provided that in no event shall the Share Limit exceed 4,904,367 shares (which is the sum of the
1,200,000 shares set forth above, plus the number of shares available under the 2009 Plan for additional
award grant purposes as of the Effective Date (as such term is defined in Section 8.6.1), plus the
aggregate number of shares subject to awards previously granted and outstanding under the 2009 Plan
as of the Effective Date).

4.3 Additional Share Limits. The following limits also apply with respect to awards granted under this
Plan. These limits are in addition to, not in lieu of, the aggregate Share Limit in Section 4.2.

(a) The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be delivered pursuant to options

qualified as incentive stock options granted under this Plan is 1,200,000 shares.

(b) The maximum number of shares of Common Stock subject to those options and stock appreciation
rights that are granted under this Plan during any one calendar year to any one individual is
1,000,000 shares (provided that such limit shall be 2,000,000 shares during the individual’s first
calendar year of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries).

(c) Awards that are granted under this Plan during any one calendar year to any person who, on the

grant date of the award, is a non-employee director are subject to the limits of this Section 4.3(c).
The maximum number of shares of Common Stock subject to those awards that are granted under
this Plan during any one calendar year to an individual who, on the grant date of the award, is a
non-employee director is 9,750 shares; provided that this limit is 10,750 shares as to a non-
employee director who is serving as the independent Chair of the Board or as a lead independent
director at the time the applicable grant is made. For purposes of this Section 4.3(c), a “non-
employee director” is an individual who, on the grant date of the award, is a member of the Board
who is not then an officer or employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries. The limits of
this Section 4.3(c) do not apply to, and shall be determined without taking into account, any award
granted to an individual who, on the grant date of the award, is an officer or employee of the
Company or one of its Subsidiaries. The limits of this Section 4.3(c) apply on an individual basis
and not on an aggregate basis to all non-employee directors as a group.

(d) Additional limits with respect to Qualified Performance-Based Awards are set forth in

Section 5.2.3.

4.4 Share-Limit Counting Rules. The Share Limit shall be subject to the following provisions of this

Section 4.4:

(a) Except as provided below in this Section 4.4, shares that are subject to or underlie awards granted
under this Plan which expire or for any reason are cancelled or terminated, are forfeited, fail to
vest, or for any other reason are not paid or delivered under this Plan shall not be counted against
the Share Limit and shall be available for subsequent awards under this Plan.

4

(b) To the extent that shares of Common Stock are delivered pursuant to the exercise of a stock

appreciation right granted under this Plan, the total number of shares to which the exercise relates
(and not just the shares which are actually issued in payment of the award) shall be counted
against the Share Limit. (For purposes of clarity, if a stock appreciation right relates to 100,000
shares and is exercised at a time when the payment due to the participant is 15,000 shares,
100,000 shares shall be counted against the Share Limit with respect to such exercise.)

(c) Shares that are exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Company as full or partial payment
in connection with any award granted under this Plan, as well as any shares exchanged by a
participant or withheld by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries to satisfy the tax withholding
obligations related to any award granted under this Plan, shall be counted against the Share Limit
and shall not be available for subsequent awards under this Plan.

y
x
o
r
P

(d)

In addition, shares that are exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Company after the
Stockholder Approval Date as full or partial payment in connection with any award granted under
the 2009 Plan, as well as any shares exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Company or
one of its Subsidiaries after the Stockholder Approval Date to satisfy the tax withholding
obligations related to any award granted under the 2009 Plan, shall not be available for new
awards under this Plan.

(e) To the extent that an award granted under this Plan is settled in cash or a form other than shares of
Common Stock, the shares that would have been delivered had there been no such cash or other
settlement shall not be counted against the Share Limit and shall be available for subsequent
awards under this Plan.

(f)

In the event that shares of Common Stock are delivered in respect of a dividend equivalent right
granted under this Plan, the number of shares delivered with respect to the award shall be counted
against the Share Limit. (For purposes of clarity, if 1,000 dividend equivalent rights are granted
and outstanding when the Company pays a dividend, and 50 shares are delivered in payment of
those rights with respect to that dividend, 50 shares shall be counted against the Share Limit).
Except as otherwise provided by the Administrator, shares delivered in respect of dividend
equivalent rights shall not count against any individual award limit under this Plan other than the
aggregate Share Limit.

Refer to Section 8.10 for application of the share limits of this Plan, including the limits in Sections 4.2
and 4.3, with respect to assumed awards. Each of the numerical limits and references in Sections 4.2
and 4.3, and in this Section 4.4, is subject to adjustment as contemplated by Section 4.3, Section 7 and
Section 8.10. The foregoing adjustments to the share limits of this Plan are subject to any applicable
limitations under Section 162(m) of the Code with respect to awards intended as performance-based
compensation thereunder.

4.5 No Fractional Shares; Minimum Issue. Unless otherwise expressly provided by the Administrator, no
fractional shares shall be delivered under this Plan. The Administrator may pay cash in lieu of any
fractional shares in settlements of awards under this Plan. The Administrator may from time to time
impose a limit (of not greater than 100 shares) on the minimum number of shares that may be
purchased or exercised as to awards (or any particular award) granted under this Plan unless (as to any
particular award) the total number purchased or exercised is the total number at the time available for
purchase or exercise under the award.

5. AWARDS

5.1 Type and Form of Awards. The Administrator shall determine the type or types of award(s) to be made

to each selected Eligible Person. Awards may be granted singly, in combination or in tandem. Awards
also may be made in combination or in tandem with, in replacement of, as alternatives to, or as the

5

payment form for grants or rights under any other employee or compensation plan of the Company or
one of its Subsidiaries. The types of awards that may be granted under this Plan are:

5.1.1 Stock Options. A stock option is the grant of a right to purchase a specified number of shares of
Common Stock during a specified period as determined by the Administrator. An option may be
intended as an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code (an “ISO”) or a
nonqualified stock option (an option not intended to be an ISO). The agreement evidencing the grant of
an option will indicate if the option is intended as an ISO; otherwise it will be deemed to be a
nonqualified stock option. The maximum term of each option (ISO or nonqualified) shall be ten
(10) years. The per share exercise price for each option shall be not less than 100% of the fair market
value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant of the option. When an option is exercised, the
exercise price for the shares to be purchased shall be paid in full in cash or such other method
permitted by the Administrator consistent with Section 5.5.

5.1.2 Additional Rules Applicable to ISOs. To the extent that the aggregate fair market value
(determined at the time of grant of the applicable option) of stock with respect to which ISOs first
become exercisable by a participant in any calendar year exceeds $100,000, taking into account both
Common Stock subject to ISOs under this Plan and stock subject to ISOs under all other plans of the
Company or one of its Subsidiaries (or any parent or predecessor corporation to the extent required by
and within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder), such
options shall be treated as nonqualified stock options. In reducing the number of options treated as
ISOs to meet the $100,000 limit, the most recently granted options shall be reduced first. To the extent
a reduction of simultaneously granted options is necessary to meet the $100,000 limit, the
Administrator may, in the manner and to the extent permitted by law, designate which shares of
Common Stock are to be treated as shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO. ISOs may only
be granted to employees of the Company or one of its subsidiaries (for this purpose, the term
“subsidiary” is used as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code, which generally requires an unbroken
chain of ownership of at least 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of each
subsidiary in the chain beginning with the Company and ending with the subsidiary in question). No
ISO may be granted to any person who, at the time the option is granted, owns (or is deemed to own
under Section 424(d) of the Code) shares of outstanding Common Stock possessing more than 10% of
the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, unless the exercise price of
such option is at least 110% of the fair market value of the stock subject to the option and such option
by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date such option is granted. If
an otherwise-intended ISO fails to meet the applicable requirements of Section 422 of the Code, the
option shall be a nonqualified stock option.

5.1.3 Stock Appreciation Rights. A stock appreciation right or “SAR” is a right to receive a payment,
in cash and/or Common Stock, equal to the excess of the fair market value of a specified number of
shares of Common Stock on the date the SAR is exercised over the “base price” of the award, which
base price shall be set forth in the applicable award agreement and shall be not less than 100% of the
fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant of the SAR. The maximum term of
a SAR shall be ten (10) years.

5.1.4 Other Awards; Dividend Equivalent Rights. The other types of awards that may be granted under
this Plan include: (a) stock bonuses, restricted stock, performance stock, stock units, phantom stock or
similar rights to purchase or acquire shares, whether at a fixed or variable price (or no price) or fixed or
variable ratio related to the Common Stock, and, subject to the Minimum Vesting Requirement, any of
which may (but need not) be fully vested at grant or vest upon the passage of time, the occurrence of
one or more events, the satisfaction of performance criteria or other conditions, or any combination
thereof; or (b) cash awards. Dividend equivalent rights may be granted as a separate award or in
connection with another award under this Plan; provided, however, that dividend equivalent rights may

6

y
x
o
r
P

not be granted as to a stock option or SAR granted under this Plan. In addition, any dividends and/or
dividend equivalents as to the portion of an award that is subject to unsatisfied vesting requirements
will be subject to termination and forfeiture to the same extent as the corresponding portion of the
award to which they relate in the event the applicable vesting requirements are not satisfied.

5.2 Section 162(m) Performance-Based Awards. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any of
the types of awards listed in Section 5.1.4 above may be, and options and SARs granted to officers and
employees also may be, granted as awards intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based
compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. An Award (other than an option or
SAR) intended by the Administrator to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation”
within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code is referred to as a “Qualified Performance-Based
Award.” An option or SAR intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based
compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code is referred to as a “Qualifying
Option or SAR.” The grant, vesting, exercisability or payment of Qualified Performance-Based
Awards may depend on the degree of achievement of one or more performance goals relative to a pre-
established targeted level or levels using one or more of the Business Criteria set forth below (on an
absolute or relative (including, without limitation, relative to the performance of one or more other
companies or upon comparisons of any of the indicators of performance relative to one or more other
companies) basis, any of which may also be expressed as a growth or decline measure relative to an
amount or performance for a prior date or period) for the Company on a consolidated basis or for one
or more of the Company’s subsidiaries, segments, divisions or business units, or any combination of
the foregoing. Any Qualified Performance-Based Award shall be subject to the following provisions of
this Section 5.2, and a Qualifying Option or SAR shall be subject to the following provisions of this
Section 5.2 only to the extent expressly set forth below. Nothing in this Plan, however, requires the
Administrator to qualify any award or compensation as “performance-based compensation” under
Section 162(m) of the Code.

5.2.1 Class; Administrator. The eligible class of persons for Qualified Performance-Based Awards
under this Section 5.2, as well as for a Qualifying Option or SAR, shall be officers and employees of
the Company or one of its Subsidiaries. To qualify awards as performance-based under
Section 162(m), the Administrator approving Qualified Performance-Based Awards or a Qualifying
Option or SAR, or making any certification required pursuant to Section 5.2.4, must constitute a
committee consisting solely of two or more outside directors (as this requirement is applied under
Section 162(m) of the Code).

5.2.2 Performance Goals.

(a) The specific performance goals for Qualified Performance-Based Awards shall be established

based on one or more of the following business criteria (“Business Criteria”) as selected by the
Administrator in its sole discretion: [net earnings (either before or after interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization), economic value-added, sales or revenue, net income (either before
or after taxes), operating earnings, operating income, cash flow (including, but not limited to,
operating cash flow and free cash flow), cash flow return on capital, return on net assets, return on
stockholders’ equity, return on assets, return on capital, stockholder returns, return on sales, gross
or net profit margin, productivity, expense, margins, operating efficiency, customer satisfaction,
working capital, earnings per share, price per share, market share] or any combination thereof.
The applicable performance measurement period may not be less than three months nor more than
10 years.

(b) The terms of the Qualified Performance-Based Awards may specify the manner, if any, in which
performance targets (or the applicable measure of performance) shall be adjusted: to mitigate the
unbudgeted impact of material, unusual or nonrecurring gains and losses; to exclude restructuring
and/or other nonrecurring charges; to exclude the effects of financing activities; to exclude

7

exchange rate effects; to exclude the effects of changes to accounting principles; to exclude the
effects of any statutory adjustments to corporate tax rates; to exclude the effects of any items of an
unusual nature or of infrequency of occurrence; to exclude the effects of acquisitions or joint
ventures; to exclude the effects of discontinued operations; to assume that any business divested
achieved performance objectives at targeted levels during the balance of a performance period
following such divestiture or to exclude the effects of any divestiture; to exclude the effect of any
event or transaction referenced in Section 7.1; to exclude the effects of stock-based compensation;
to exclude the award of bonuses; to exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets; to exclude
the goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges; to exclude the effect of any other unusual,
non-recurring gain or loss, non-operating item or other extraordinary item; to exclude the costs
associated with any of the foregoing or any potential transaction that if consummated would
constitute any of the foregoing; or to exclude other items specified by the Administrator at the
time of establishing the targets.

(c) To qualify awards as performance-based under Section 162(m), the applicable Business Criterion
(or Business Criteria, as the case may be) and specific performance formula, goal or goals
(“targets”) must be established and approved by the Administrator during the first 90 days of the
performance period (and, in the case of performance periods of less than one year, in no event
after 25% or more of the performance period has elapsed) and while performance relating to such
target(s) remains substantially uncertain within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.

5.2.3 Form of Payment; Maximum Qualified Performance-Based Award. Grants or awards under this
Section 5.2 may be paid in cash or shares of Common Stock or any combination thereof. Qualifying
Option or SAR awards granted to any one participant in any one calendar year shall be subject to the limit
set forth in Section 4.3(b). A Qualified Performance-Based Award shall be subject to the following
applicable limit: (a) in the case of a Qualified Performance-Based Award where the value of the Award is
expressed as a number or range of number of shares of Common Stock (such as, without limitation, a
Qualified Performance-Based Award in the form of a restricted stock, performance stock, or stock unit
award) or a Qualified Performance-Based Award where the amount of cash payable upon or following
vesting of the award is determined with reference to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock at
such time, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may be subject to such Qualified
Performance-Based Awards described in this clause (a) that are granted to any one individual in any one
calendar year shall not exceed 1,000,000 shares (provided that such limit shall be 2,000,000 shares during
the individual’s first calendar year of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries), either individually
or in the aggregate, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7.1; and (b) in the case of other Qualified
Performance-Based Awards (such as a Qualified Performance-Based Award where the potential payment
is a stated cash amount or range of stated cash amounts, whether the payment is ultimately made in cash
or Common Stock by converting the applicable cash amount into a number of shares of Common Stock
based on the fair market value of a share of Common Stock upon or following vesting of the award), the
aggregate amount of compensation to be paid to any one participant in respect of all such Qualified
Performance-Based Awards granted to that participant in any one calendar year shall not exceed
$5,000,000. The limits in clauses (a) and (b) in the preceding sentence are separate, independent limits,
and a Qualified Performance-Based Award shall be subject to the applicable limit but not both limits. For
clarity, an eligible individual may receive, during any applicable year, awards referenced in clause (a) of
this Section 5.2.3 not in excess of the limit of that clause, awards referenced in clause (b) of this
Section 5.2.3 not in excess of the limit of that clause, Qualifying Option or SAR awards not in excess of
the limit set forth in Section 4.3(b), as well as other types of awards (not referenced in this Section 5.2.3)
under this Plan. Awards that are cancelled during the year shall be counted against any applicable limits
of Section 4.3(b) and this Section 5.2.3 to the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code.

5.2.4 Certification of Payment. Before any Qualified Performance-Based Award is paid and to the
extent applicable to qualify the award as performance-based compensation within the meaning of

8

Section 162(m) of the Code, the Administrator must certify in writing that the performance target(s)
and any other material terms of the Qualified Performance-Based Award were in fact timely satisfied.

5.2.5 Reservation of Discretion. The Administrator will have the discretion to determine the
restrictions or other limitations of the individual awards granted under this Section 5.2 including the
authority to reduce awards, payouts or vesting or to pay no awards, in its sole discretion, if the
Administrator preserves such authority at the time of grant by language to this effect in its authorizing
resolutions or otherwise.

5.2.6 Expiration of Grant Authority. As required pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code and the
regulations promulgated thereunder, the Administrator’s authority to grant new awards that are
intended to qualify as performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the
Code (other than a Qualifying Option or SAR) shall terminate upon the first meeting of the Company’s
stockholders that occurs in the fifth year following the year in which the Company’s stockholders first
approve this Plan, subject to any subsequent extension that may be approved by stockholders.

y
x
o
r
P

5.3 Award Agreements. Each award shall be evidenced by a written or electronic award agreement or

notice in a form approved by the Administrator (an “award agreement”), and, in each case and if
required by the Administrator, executed or otherwise electronically accepted by the recipient of the
award in such form and manner as the Administrator may require.

5.4 Deferrals and Settlements. Payment of awards may be in the form of cash, Common Stock, other

awards or combinations thereof as the Administrator shall determine, and with such restrictions (if any)
as it may impose. The Administrator may also require or permit participants to elect to defer the
issuance of shares or the settlement of awards in cash under such rules and procedures as it may
establish under this Plan. The Administrator may also provide that deferred settlements include the
payment or crediting of interest or other earnings on the deferral amounts, or the payment or crediting
of dividend equivalents where the deferred amounts are denominated in shares.

5.5 Consideration for Common Stock or Awards. The purchase price (if any) for any award granted under
this Plan or the Common Stock to be delivered pursuant to an award, as applicable, may be paid by
means of any lawful consideration as determined by the Administrator, including, without limitation,
one or a combination of the following methods:

(a)

services rendered by the recipient of such award;

(b) cash, check payable to the order of the Company, or electronic funds transfer;

(c) notice and third party payment in such manner as may be authorized by the Administrator;

(d)

the delivery of previously owned shares of Common Stock;

(e) by a reduction in the number of shares otherwise deliverable pursuant to the award; or

(f)

subject to such procedures as the Administrator may adopt, pursuant to a “cashless exercise” with
a third party who provides financing for the purposes of (or who otherwise facilitates) the
purchase or exercise of awards.

In no event shall any shares newly-issued by the Company be issued for less than the minimum lawful
consideration for such shares or for consideration other than consideration permitted by applicable state
law. Shares of Common Stock used to satisfy the exercise price of an option shall be valued at their fair
market value. The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares unless and until it receives full
payment of the exercise or purchase price therefor and any related withholding obligations under
Section 8.5 and any other conditions to exercise or purchase have been satisfied. Unless otherwise
expressly provided in the applicable award agreement, the Administrator may at any time eliminate or
limit a participant’s ability to pay any purchase or exercise price of any award or shares by any method
other than cash payment to the Company.

9

5.6 Definition of Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Plan, “fair market value” shall mean, unless

otherwise determined or provided by the Administrator in the circumstances, the closing price (in
regular trading) for a share of Common Stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market (the “Market”) for the
date in question or, if no sales of Common Stock were reported on the Market on that date, the closing
price (in regular trading) for a share of Common Stock on the Market for the next preceding day on
which sales of Common Stock were reported on the Market. The Administrator may, however, provide
with respect to one or more awards that the fair market value shall equal the closing price (in regular
trading) for a share of Common Stock on the Market on the last trading day preceding the date in
question or the average of the high and low trading prices of a share of Common Stock on the Market
for the date in question or the most recent trading day. If the Common Stock is no longer listed or is no
longer actively traded on the Market as of the applicable date, the fair market value of the Common
Stock shall be the value as reasonably determined by the Administrator for purposes of the award in the
circumstances. The Administrator also may adopt a different methodology for determining fair market
value with respect to one or more awards if a different methodology is necessary or advisable to secure
any intended favorable tax, legal or other treatment for the particular award(s) (for example, and
without limitation, the Administrator may provide that fair market value for purposes of one or more
awards will be based on an average of closing prices (or the average of high and low daily trading
prices) for a specified period preceding the relevant date).

5.7 Transfer Restrictions.

5.7.1 Limitations on Exercise and Transfer. Unless otherwise expressly provided in (or pursuant to)
this Section 5.7 or required by applicable law: (a) all awards are non-transferable and shall not be
subject in any manner to sale, transfer, anticipation, alienation, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or
charge; (b) awards shall be exercised only by the participant; and (c) amounts payable or shares
issuable pursuant to any award shall be delivered only to (or for the account of) the participant.

5.7.2 Exceptions. The Administrator may permit awards to be exercised by and paid to, or otherwise
transferred to, other persons or entities pursuant to such conditions and procedures, including
limitations on subsequent transfers, as the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, establish in writing.
Any permitted transfer shall be subject to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws
and shall not be for value (other than nominal consideration, settlement of marital property rights, or
for interests in an entity in which more than 50% of the voting interests are held by the Eligible Person
or by the Eligible Person’s family members).

5.7.3 Further Exceptions to Limits on Transfer. The exercise and transfer restrictions in Section 5.7.1
shall not apply to:

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

(e)

transfers to the Company (for example, in connection with the expiration or termination of the
award),

the designation of a beneficiary to receive benefits in the event of the participant’s death or, if the
participant has died, transfers to or exercise by the participant’s beneficiary, or, in the absence of a
validly designated beneficiary, transfers by will or the laws of descent and distribution,

subject to any applicable limitations on ISOs, transfers to a family member (or former family
member) pursuant to a domestic relations order if received by the Administrator,

if the participant has suffered a disability, permitted transfers or exercises on behalf of the
participant by his or her legal representative, or

the authorization by the Administrator of “cashless exercise” procedures with third parties who
provide financing for the purpose of (or who otherwise facilitate) the exercise of awards consistent
with applicable laws and any limitations imposed by the Administrator.

5.8 International Awards. One or more awards may be granted to Eligible Persons who provide services to
the Company or one of its Subsidiaries outside of the United States. Any awards granted to such
persons may be granted pursuant to the terms and conditions of any applicable sub-plans, if any,
appended to this Plan and approved by the Administrator from time to time. The awards so granted
need not comply with other specific terms of this Plan, provided that stockholder approval of any
deviation from the specific terms of this Plan is not required by applicable law or any applicable listing
agency.

6. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE ON AWARDS

6.1 General. The Administrator shall establish the effect (if any) of a termination of employment or service
on the rights and benefits under each award under this Plan and in so doing may make distinctions
based upon, inter alia, the cause of termination and type of award. If the participant is not an employee
of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, is not a member of the Board, and provides other services to
the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, the Administrator shall be the sole judge for purposes of this
Plan (unless a contract or the award otherwise provides) of whether the participant continues to render
services to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries and the date, if any, upon which such services shall
be deemed to have terminated.

6.2 Events Not Deemed Terminations of Employment. Unless the express policy of the Company or one
of its Subsidiaries, or the Administrator, otherwise provides, or except as otherwise required by
applicable law, the employment relationship shall not be considered terminated in the case of (a) sick
leave, (b) military leave, or (c) any other leave of absence authorized by the Company or one of its
Subsidiaries, or the Administrator; provided that, unless reemployment upon the expiration of such
leave is guaranteed by contract or law or the Administrator otherwise provides, such leave is for a
period of not more than three months. In the case of any employee of the Company or one of its
Subsidiaries on an approved leave of absence, continued vesting of the award while on leave from the
employ of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries may be suspended until the employee returns to
service, unless the Administrator otherwise provides or applicable law otherwise requires. In no event
shall an award be exercised after the expiration of any applicable maximum term of the award.

6.3 Effect of Change of Subsidiary Status. For purposes of this Plan and any award, if an entity ceases to
be a Subsidiary of the Company a termination of employment or service shall be deemed to have
occurred with respect to each Eligible Person in respect of such Subsidiary who does not continue as an
Eligible Person in respect of the Company or another Subsidiary that continues as such after giving
effect to the transaction or other event giving rise to the change in status unless the Subsidiary that is
sold, spun-off or otherwise divested (or its successor or a direct or indirect parent of such Subsidiary or
successor) assumes the Eligible Person’s award(s) in connection with such transaction.

7. ADJUSTMENTS; ACCELERATION

7.1 Adjustments.

(a) Subject to Section 7.2, upon (or, as may be necessary to effect the adjustment, immediately prior
to): any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a stock split in the form of a stock
dividend) or reverse stock split; any merger, combination, consolidation, conversion or other
reorganization; any spin-off, split-up, or similar extraordinary dividend distribution in respect of
the Common Stock; or any exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or any
similar, unusual or extraordinary corporate transaction in respect of the Common Stock; then the
Administrator shall equitably and proportionately adjust (1) the number and type of shares of
Common Stock (or other securities) that thereafter may be made the subject of awards (including
the specific share limits, maximums and numbers of shares set forth elsewhere in this Plan),
(2) the number, amount and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property)

11

subject to any outstanding awards, (3) the grant, purchase, or exercise price (which term includes
the base price of any SAR or similar right) of any outstanding awards, and/or (4) the securities,
cash or other property deliverable upon exercise or payment of any outstanding awards, in each
case to the extent necessary to preserve (but not increase) the level of incentives intended by this
Plan and the then-outstanding awards.

(b) Unless otherwise expressly provided in the applicable award agreement, upon (or, as may be

necessary to effect the adjustment, immediately prior to) any event or transaction described in the
preceding paragraph or a sale of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company as
an entirety, the Administrator shall equitably and proportionately adjust the performance standards
and/or period applicable to any then-outstanding performance-based awards to the extent
necessary to preserve (but not increase) the level of incentives intended by this Plan and the then-
outstanding performance-based awards.

(c)

It is intended that, if possible, any adjustments contemplated by the preceding two paragraphs be
made in a manner that satisfies applicable U.S. legal, tax (including, without limitation and as
applicable in the circumstances, Section 424 of the Code as to ISOs, Section 409A of the Code as
to awards intended to comply therewith and not be subject to taxation thereunder, and
Section 162(m) of the Code as to any Qualifying Option or SAR and any Qualified Performance-
Based Award) and accounting (so as to not trigger any unintended charge to earnings with respect
to such adjustment) requirements.

(d) Without limiting the generality of Section 3.5, any good faith determination by the Administrator
as to whether an adjustment is required in the circumstances pursuant to this Section 7.1, and the
extent and nature of any such adjustment, shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.

7.2 Corporate Transactions—Assumption and Termination of Awards.

(a) Upon any event in which the Company does not survive, or does not survive as a public company
in respect of its Common Stock (including, without limitation, a dissolution, merger, combination,
consolidation, conversion, exchange of securities, or other reorganization, or a sale of all or
substantially all of the business, stock or assets of the Company, in any case in connection with
which the Company does not survive or does not survive as a public company in respect of its
Common Stock), then the Administrator may make provision for a cash payment in settlement of,
or for the termination, assumption, substitution or exchange of any or all outstanding awards or
the cash, securities or property deliverable to the holder of any or all outstanding awards, based
upon, to the extent relevant under the circumstances, the distribution or consideration payable to
holders of the Common Stock upon or in respect of such event. Upon the occurrence of any event
described in the preceding sentence in connection with which the Administrator has made
provision for the award to be terminated (and the Administrator has not made a provision for the
substitution, assumption, exchange or other continuation or settlement of the award): (1) unless
otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement, each then-outstanding option and SAR
shall become fully vested, all shares of restricted stock then outstanding shall fully vest free of
restrictions, and each other award granted under this Plan that is then outstanding shall become
payable to the holder of such award (with any performance goals applicable to the award in each
case being deemed met, unless otherwise provided in the award agreement, at the “target”
performance level); and (2) each award shall terminate upon the related event; provided that the
holder of an option or SAR shall be given reasonable advance notice of the impending termination
and a reasonable opportunity to exercise his or her outstanding vested options and SARs (after
giving effect to any accelerated vesting required in the circumstances) in accordance with their
terms before the termination of such awards (except that in no case shall more than ten days’
notice of the impending termination be required and any acceleration of vesting and any exercise
of any portion of an award that is so accelerated may be made contingent upon the actual
occurrence of the event).

(b) Without limiting the preceding paragraph, in connection with any event referred to in the

preceding paragraph or any change in control event defined in any applicable award agreement,
the Administrator may, in its discretion, provide for the accelerated vesting of any award or
awards as and to the extent determined by the Administrator in the circumstances.

(c) For purposes of this Section 7.2, an award shall be deemed to have been “assumed” if (without
limiting other circumstances in which an award is assumed) the award continues after an event
referred to above in this Section 7.2, and/or is assumed and continued by the surviving entity
following such event (including, without limitation, an entity that, as a result of such event, owns
the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets directly or through one or more
subsidiaries (a “Parent”)), and confers the right to purchase or receive, as applicable and subject to
vesting and the other terms and conditions of the award, for each share of Common Stock subject
to the award immediately prior to the event, the consideration (whether cash, shares, or other
securities or property) received in the event by the stockholders of the Company for each share of
Common Stock sold or exchanged in such event (or the consideration received by a majority of
the stockholders participating in such event if the stockholders were offered a choice of
consideration); provided, however, that if the consideration offered for a share of Common Stock
in the event is not solely the ordinary common stock of a successor corporation or a Parent, the
Administrator may provide for the consideration to be received upon exercise or payment of the
award, for each share subject to the award, to be solely ordinary common stock of the successor
corporation or a Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by the
stockholders participating in the event.

(d) The Administrator may adopt such valuation methodologies for outstanding awards as it deems
reasonable in the event of a cash or property settlement and, in the case of options, SARs or
similar rights, but without limitation on other methodologies, may base such settlement solely
upon the excess if any of the per share amount payable upon or in respect of such event over the
exercise or base price of the award. In the case of an option, SAR or similar right as to which the
per share amount payable upon or in respect of such event is less than or equal to the exercise or
base price of the award, the Administrator may terminate such award in connection with an event
referred to in this Section 7.2 without any payment in respect of such award.

(e)

In any of the events referred to in this Section 7.2, the Administrator may take such action
contemplated by this Section 7.2 prior to such event (as opposed to on the occurrence of such
event) to the extent that the Administrator deems the action necessary to permit the participant to
realize the benefits intended to be conveyed with respect to the underlying shares. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator may deem an acceleration and/or
termination to occur immediately prior to the applicable event and, in such circumstances, will
reinstate the original terms of the award if an event giving rise to an acceleration and/or
termination does not occur.

(f) Without limiting the generality of Section 3.5, any good faith determination by the Administrator
pursuant to its authority under this Section 7.2 shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.

(g) The Administrator may override the provisions of this Section 7.2 by express provision in the

award agreement and may accord any Eligible Person a right to refuse any acceleration, whether
pursuant to the award agreement or otherwise, in such circumstances as the Administrator may
approve. The portion of any ISO accelerated in connection with an event referred to in this
Section 7.2 (or such other circumstances as may trigger accelerated vesting of the award) shall
remain exercisable as an ISO only to the extent the applicable $100,000 limitation on ISOs is not
exceeded. To the extent exceeded, the accelerated portion of the option shall be exercisable as a
nonqualified stock option under the Code.

8. OTHER PROVISIONS

8.1 Compliance with Laws. This Plan, the granting and vesting of awards under this Plan, the offer,

issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock, and/or the payment of money under this Plan or
under awards are subject to compliance with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules
and regulations (including but not limited to state and federal securities law and federal margin
requirements) and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or governmental authority as may, in the
opinion of counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. The person
acquiring any securities under this Plan will, if requested by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries,
provide such assurances and representations to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries as the
Administrator may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal and
accounting requirements.

8.2 No Rights to Award. No person shall have any claim or rights to be granted an award (or additional
awards, as the case may be) under this Plan, subject to any express contractual rights (set forth in a
document other than this Plan) to the contrary.

8.3 No Employment/Service Contract. Nothing contained in this Plan (or in any other documents under this
Plan or in any award) shall confer upon any Eligible Person or other participant any right to continue in
the employ or other service of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, constitute any contract or
agreement of employment or other service or affect an employee’s status as an employee at will, nor shall
interfere in any way with the right of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries to change a person’s
compensation or other benefits, or to terminate his or her employment or other service, with or without
cause. Nothing in this Section 8.3, however, is intended to adversely affect any express independent right
of such person under a separate employment or service contract other than an award agreement.

8.4 Plan Not Funded. Awards payable under this Plan shall be payable in shares or from the general assets
of the Company, and no special or separate reserve, fund or deposit shall be made to assure payment of
such awards. No participant, beneficiary or other person shall have any right, title or interest in any
fund or in any specific asset (including shares of Common Stock, except as expressly otherwise
provided) of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries by reason of any award hereunder. Neither the
provisions of this Plan (or of any related documents), nor the creation or adoption of this Plan, nor any
action taken pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall create, or be construed to create, a trust of any
kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or one of its Subsidiaries and any participant,
beneficiary or other person. To the extent that a participant, beneficiary or other person acquires a right
to receive payment pursuant to any award hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of any
unsecured general creditor of the Company.

8.5 Tax Withholding. Upon any exercise, vesting, or payment of any award, or upon the disposition of

shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO prior to satisfaction of the holding
period requirements of Section 422 of the Code, or upon any other tax withholding event with respect
to any award, arrangements satisfactory to the Company shall be made to provide for any taxes the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries may be required to withhold with respect to such award event or
payment. Such arrangements may include (but are not limited to) any one of (or a combination of) the
following:

(a) The Company or one of its Subsidiaries shall have the right to require the participant (or the
participant’s personal representative or beneficiary, as the case may be) to pay or provide for
payment of the amount of any taxes which the Company or one of its Subsidiaries may be
required to withhold with respect to such award event or payment.

(b) The Company or one of its Subsidiaries shall have the right to deduct from any amount otherwise
payable in cash (whether related to the award or otherwise) to the participant (or the participant’s

14

(c)

personal representative or beneficiary, as the case may be) the amount of any taxes which the Company
or one of its Subsidiaries may be required to withhold with respect to such award event or payment.

In any case where a tax is required to be withheld in connection with the delivery of shares of
Common Stock under this Plan, the Administrator may in its sole discretion (subject to
Section 8.1) require or grant (either at the time of the award or thereafter) to the participant the
right to elect, pursuant to such rules and subject to such conditions as the Administrator may
establish, that the Company reduce the number of shares to be delivered by (or otherwise
reacquire) the appropriate number of shares, valued in a consistent manner at their fair market
value or at the sales price in accordance with authorized procedures for cashless exercises,
necessary to satisfy the applicable withholding obligation on exercise, vesting or payment. Unless
otherwise provided by the Administrator, in no event shall the shares withheld exceed the
minimum whole number of shares required for tax withholding under applicable law to the extent
the Company determines that withholding at any greater level would result in an award otherwise
classified as an equity award under ASC Topic 718 (or any successor thereto) being classified as a
liability award under ASC Topic 718 (or such successor).

8.6 Effective Date, Termination and Suspension, Amendments.

8.6.1 Effective Date. This Plan is effective as of April 11, 2017, the date of its approval by the Board
(the “Effective Date”). This Plan shall be submitted for and subject to stockholder approval no later
than twelve months after the Effective Date. Unless earlier terminated by the Board and subject to any
extension that may be approved by stockholders, this Plan shall terminate at the close of business on
the day before the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. After the termination of this Plan either upon
such stated termination date or its earlier termination by the Board, no additional awards may be
granted under this Plan, but previously granted awards (and the authority of the Administrator with
respect thereto, including the authority to amend such awards) shall remain outstanding in accordance
with their applicable terms and conditions and the terms and conditions of this Plan.

8.6.2 Board Authorization. The Board may, at any time, terminate or, from time to time, amend,
modify or suspend this Plan, in whole or in part. No awards may be granted during any period that the
Board suspends this Plan.

8.6.3 Stockholder Approval. To the extent then required by applicable law or deemed necessary or
advisable by the Board, any amendment to this Plan shall be subject to stockholder approval.

8.6.4 Amendments to Awards. Without limiting any other express authority of the Administrator under
(but subject to) the express limits of this Plan, the Administrator by agreement or resolution may waive
conditions of or limitations on awards to participants that the Administrator in the prior exercise of its
discretion has imposed, without the consent of a participant, and (subject to the requirements of
Sections 3.2 and 8.6.5) may make other changes to the terms and conditions of awards. Any
amendment or other action that would constitute a repricing of an award is subject to the no-repricing
provision of Section 3.3.

8.6.5 Limitations on Amendments to Plan and Awards. No amendment, suspension or termination of
this Plan or amendment of any outstanding award agreement shall, without written consent of the
participant, affect in any manner materially adverse to the participant any rights or benefits of the
participant or obligations of the Company under any award granted under this Plan prior to the
effective date of such change. Changes, settlements and other actions contemplated by Section 7 shall
not be deemed to constitute changes or amendments for purposes of this Section 8.6.

8.7 Privileges of Stock Ownership. Except as otherwise expressly authorized by the Administrator, a

participant shall not be entitled to any privilege of stock ownership as to any shares of Common Stock
not actually delivered to and held of record by the participant. Except as expressly required by

15

Section 7.1 or otherwise expressly provided by the Administrator, no adjustment will be made for
dividends or other rights as a stockholder for which a record date is prior to such date of delivery.

8.8 Governing Law; Severability.

8.8.1 Choice of Law. This Plan, the awards, all documents evidencing awards and all other related
documents shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware,
notwithstanding any Delaware or other conflict of law provision to the contrary.

8.8.2 Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision invalid and unenforceable,
the remaining provisions of this Plan shall continue in effect.

8.9 Captions. Captions and headings are given to the sections and subsections of this Plan solely as a

convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant
to the construction or interpretation of this Plan or any provision thereof.

8.10 Stock-Based Awards in Substitution for Stock Options or Awards Granted by Other Corporation.

Awards may be granted to Eligible Persons in substitution for or in connection with an assumption of
employee stock options, SARs, restricted stock or other stock-based awards granted by other entities to
persons who are or who will become Eligible Persons in respect of the Company or one of its
Subsidiaries, in connection with a distribution, merger or other reorganization by or with the granting
entity or an affiliated entity, or the acquisition by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, directly or
indirectly, of all or a substantial part of the stock or assets of the employing entity. The awards so
granted need not comply with other specific terms of this Plan, provided the awards reflect adjustments
giving effect to the assumption or substitution consistent with any conversion applicable to the
Common Stock (or the securities otherwise subject to the award) in the transaction and any change in
the issuer of the security. Any shares that are delivered and any awards that are granted by, or become
obligations of, the Company, as a result of the assumption by the Company of, or in substitution for,
outstanding awards previously granted or assumed by an acquired company (or previously granted or
assumed by a predecessor employer (or direct or indirect parent thereof) in the case of persons that
become employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries in connection with a business or asset
acquisition or similar transaction) shall not be counted against the Share Limit or other limits on the
number of shares available for issuance under this Plan.

8.11 Non-Exclusivity of Plan. Nothing in this Plan shall limit or be deemed to limit the authority of the

Board or the Administrator to grant awards or authorize any other compensation, with or without
reference to the Common Stock, under any other plan or authority.

8.12 No Corporate Action Restriction. The existence of this Plan, the award agreements and the awards
granted hereunder shall not limit, affect, or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or
any Subsidiary (or any of their respective shareholders, boards of directors or committees thereof (or
any subcommittees), as the case may be) to make or authorize: (a) any adjustment, recapitalization,
reorganization or other change in the capital structure or business of the Company or any Subsidiary,
(b) any merger, amalgamation, consolidation or change in the ownership of the Company or any
Subsidiary, (c) any issue of bonds, debentures, capital, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or
affecting the capital stock (or the rights thereof) of the Company or any Subsidiary, (d) any dissolution
or liquidation of the Company or any Subsidiary, (e) any sale or transfer of all or any part of the assets
or business of the Company or any Subsidiary, (f) any other award, grant, or payment of incentives or
other compensation under any other plan or authority (or any other action with respect to any benefit,
incentive or compensation), or (g) any other corporate act or proceeding by the Company or any
Subsidiary. No participant, beneficiary or any other person shall have any claim under any award or
award agreement against any member of the Board or the Administrator, or the Company or any
employees, officers or agents of the Company or any Subsidiary, as a result of any such action.

16

8.13 Other Company Benefit and Compensation Programs. Payments and other benefits received by a
participant under an award made pursuant to this Plan shall not be deemed a part of a participant’s
compensation for purposes of the determination of benefits under any other employee welfare or
benefit plans or arrangements, if any, provided by the Company or any Subsidiary, except where the
Administrator expressly otherwise provides or authorizes in writing. Awards under this Plan may be
made in addition to, in combination with, as alternatives to or in payment of grants, awards or
commitments under any other plans, arrangements or authority of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

8.14 Clawback Policy. The awards granted under this Plan are subject to the terms of the Company’s

recoupment, clawback or similar policy as it may be in effect from time to time, as well as any similar
provisions of applicable law, any of which could in certain circumstances require repayment or
forfeiture of awards or any shares of Common Stock or other cash or property received with respect to
the awards (including any value received from a disposition of the shares acquired upon payment of the
awards).

Textile. Reggiani industrial digital inkjet textile printers address the full scope of advanced textile printing with
versatile printers suitable for pigmented, reactive dye, acid dye, and water-based dispersed printing ink. Reggiani
is at the forefront of the emergence of digital printing as an alternative to either analog printing or single color
(dyed) garments. Reggiani provides an overall solution for the entire textile printing process from yarn treatment
to fabric printing and finishing for a wide variety of substrates and applications (fashion, home textile,
sportswear, signage, flooring, automotive, and outdoor).

A significant driver for the adoption of digital textile printing is the growth of “fast fashion,” which is a term
used by fashion retailers to express the need for designs to move quickly from the catwalk to the retailer to
capture current fashion trends. The digital textile printing market has also benefitted from sports apparel with
short run production quantities, closer geographic proximity to end-use markets, and environmental awareness.

Reggiani industrial digital inkjet textile printing systems use water-based inks and advanced streamlined
automation that provide a total solution for textile businesses. The TOP digital inkjet textile printer is a fast
throughput machine that can be used with reactive, acid, disperse, dye sublimation, and pigmented inks. The
Essetex 2 meter wide washing box is the ideal system for knitted and light fabrics, particularly where print
washing is beneficial for delicate textiles and for post-dyeing of printed cloth. The ReNOIR NEXT printer prints
on fabrics and paper using the same ink set with a 1.8 meter beltless digital printing system and offers simplified
material handling, a compact footprint, and a lower acquisition cost, making it an ideal entry-level textile printing
production device.

In 2016, we launched the 1.8 and 3.4 meter VUTEk FabriVU super-wide format industrial digital inkjet soft
signage printers, which utilize water-based sublimation ink and are manufactured in our Reggiani facility.
FabriVU offers print speeds up to 464 square meters per hour at 600 dpi and high resolution up to 2,400 dpi and
utilize water-based sublimation ink.

Label and Packaging. In 2016, we introduced the Nozomi single-pass industrial digital inkjet platform, which is
expected to be launched in 2017. The Nozomi C18000 is a 1.8 meter, single pass, high speed LED industrial
digital inkjet corrugated packaging press for the corrugated, paper packaging, display printing, and other markets
that prints up to 75 linear meters (246 linear feet) per minute.

Our Jetrion label and packaging digital inkjet printers provide a wide array of label and packaging digital inkjet
systems, custom high-performance integration solutions, and specialty digital UV and LED curable ink to the
label and packaging industries. Our Jetrion 4950LX industrial digital inkjet label and packaging printer was
launched in 2014. It incorporates full LED curing, image quality greater than 1,000 dpi, and a white printing
option. The 4950LX printer features digital printing and inline finishing in one machine.

Ceramic Tile Decoration. Our Cretaprint ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printers are utilized by the
ceramic tile and construction material manufacturing industries. The ceramic tile decoration market is
transitioning from analog to digital inkjet printing technology.

We launched the Cretaprint D4 in 2016, which features up to 12 print bars, and gives users the ability to
incorporate a full range of ceramic ink and digital print effects. We also launched the Cretaprint M4 and M4 SOL
printer platforms in 2016, which allow customers to print on larger tile sizes up to 1,180 mm wide and offers
enhanced imaging quality with variable-drop grayscale imaging. The Cretaprint M4 SOL is a soluble salt ink
printer.

We launched the Cretaprint C4, which is our next generation ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printer in
2015. Electronics and ink systems have been upgraded to maximize accuracy in a broad range of production
conditions. The Cretaprint C4 printer allows the use of different print heads and digital applications on the same
machine.

Ink. Our ink provides a recurring revenue stream generated from sales to our existing customer base of installed
printers.

VUTEk printers primarily use digital UV and LED curable ink, although our solvent ink printers remain in use in
the field. We were first to market with digital UV curable ink incorporating “cool cure” LED technology for use
in high-end production super-wide, wide format, and label and packaging digital inkjet printing systems. We sell
a variety of third party branded textile ink to users of our textile digital inkjet printers, including dye sublimation,
pigmented, reactive dye, acid dye, and water-based dispersed printing ink. We launched internal formulation of
our ceramic digital ink in 2014, which was expanded to included soluble salt-based ceramic ink in 2016. We
launched internal formulation of our reactive dye ink in 2016.

In 2016, we introduced AquaEndure acqueous ink, which is a water-based inkjet ink that will be used across
many of our printers in the future.

We acquired Rialco Limited (“Rialco”) in 2016, which supplies dye powders and color products for the textile,
digital print, and other decorating industries. Rialco’s pure disperse dyes are particularly important in the
manufacture of high-quality dye sublimation inkjet inks for textile applications, which is a key growth area in the
global migration from analog to digital print. Rialco’s technical and commercial capabilities benefit the Industrial
Inkjet operating segment in the sourcing, specification, and purification of high quality dyes and expand our
research, development, and innovation base to develop ink for the signage, ceramic, and packaging markets.

We accelerated our ink development capability with the purchase of technology from Polymeric Imaging, Inc.
(“Polymeric”) in 2014. Polymeric has extensive experience developing digital inkjet ink and coatings that
address important curing, adhesion, density, and durability issues that are encountered when printing on
challenging substrates. We use the technology to enhance capabilities for thermoforming and other high-
elongation applications.

Sales, Marketing, and Distribution

We have assembled, internally and through acquisitions, an experienced team of technical support, sales, and
marketing personnel with backgrounds in color reproduction, digital pre-press, image processing, business
process automation systems, networking, and software and hardware engineering, as well as market knowledge
of enterprise printing, graphic arts, fulfillment systems, cross-media marketing, imposition solutions, textile
printing, fashion design, ceramic tile decoration, and commercial printing. We expect to continue to expand the
scope and sophistication of our products and gain access to new markets and channels of distribution by applying
our expertise in these areas.

Industrial Inkjet

Our Industrial Inkjet products are sold primarily through our direct sales force augmented by some select
distributors. Any interruption of either of these distribution channels could negatively impact us in the future. See
Item 1A: Risk Factors—We rely on our distribution channels to ensure sales growth.

Textile digital printing is an alternative to either analog printing or single color (dyed) garments. Widespread
adoption of digital textile printing depends on the willingness and ability of businesses in the printed textile
industry to replace their existing analog printing systems and single color (dyed) garments with digital printing
systems.

The adoption of digital textile printing is dependent to some extent on the growth of “fast fashion,” and has also
benefitted from sports apparel with shorter production runs, closer geographic proximity to end-use markets, and

11

environmental awareness. A key element of our inkjet textile printing growth strategy is to market digital inkjet
printing systems to contract printers that serve major textile brand owners and fashion designers.

The ceramic tile industry has undergone a shift from southern Europe (e.g., Spain and Italy) to the emerging
markets of China, India, Brazil, and Indonesia. As a result, we operate a Cretaprint sales and support center in
Foshan, Guangdong, China, in addition to our facilities in Spain. Foshan is home to the largest concentration of
ceramic tile manufacturers in China.

We promote our Industrial Inkjet products through public relations, direct mail, advertising, promotional
material, trade shows, and ongoing customer communication programs. The majority of sales leads for our inkjet
printer sales are generated from trade shows. There were approximately 1,500 attendees from 25 countries at our
2016 EFI Connect trade show, which generates leads for the Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software
operating segments and generates end user demand for the Fiery segment. We also participated in Drupa, which
is the largest printing equipment trade show in the world and is held once every four years. Drupa was attended
by over 260,000 attendees from more than 180 countries in 2016.

We have established a new e-commerce platform specifically for fabric soft signage production operations. The
soft signage on-line ordering technology offers a new level of turnkey flexibility for increasingly popular fabric
graphics applications, including outdoor, trade show, and point-of-purchase displays.

In 2016, we entered into an agreement with a third party that facilitates our European customers’ equipment
financing. The agreement will provide customers with new leasing opportunities for EFI’s industrial digital inkjet
printers in many European countries.

Productivity Software

Our enterprise resource planning and collaborative supply chain business process automation software solutions
within our Productivity Software portfolio are primarily sold directly to end users by our direct sales force. An
additional distribution channel for our Productivity Software products is through sales to a mix of distribution
channels consisting of authorized distributors, dealers, and resellers who in turn sell the software solutions to end
users either stand-alone or bundled with other solutions they offer.

We have distribution agreements with some customers, including Canon, Konica Minolta, Ricoh, Xerox, Esko,
and Veritiv (formerly xpedx). There are a number of small private resellers of our business process automation
software in different geographic regions throughout the world where a direct sales force is not cost-effective.

We sell Optitex directly to the leading fashion brands and manufacturers through a direct sales force and
distribution channels consisting of authorized distributors, dealers, and resellers.

Fiery

The primary distribution channel for our Fiery products is through our direct relationships with several leading
printer manufacturers. We work closely together to design, develop, and integrate Fiery DFE and software
technology to maximize the capability of each print engine. The printer manufacturers act as distributors and sell
Fiery products to end customers through reseller channels. End customer and reseller channel preference for our
Fiery DFE and software solutions drives demand for Fiery products through the printer manufacturers.

Although end customer and reseller channel preference for Fiery products drives demand, most Fiery revenue
relies on these significant printer manufacturers/distributors to integrate Fiery technology into the design and
development of their print engine as described above. See Item 1A: Risk Factors—We do not typically have long-
term purchase commitments with the printer manufacturer customers that purchase our Fiery DFE and software
solutions. They have in the past reduced or ceased, and could at any time in the future reduce or cease, to
purchase products from us, thereby harming our operating results and business.

12

Our relationships with the leading printer and copier industry companies are one of our most important assets.
We have established relationships with leading printer and copier industry companies, including Canon, Seiko
Epson, Fuji Xerox, Kodak, Konica Minolta, Kyocera Document Solutions, Landa, OKI Data, Ricoh, Sharp,
Toshiba, and Xerox. These relationships are based on business relationships that have been established over time.
Our agreements generally do not require them to make any future purchases from us as of December 31, 2016.
They are generally free to purchase and offer products from our competitors, or build their own products for sale
to the end customer, or cease purchasing our products at any time, for any reason, or no reason.

Fiery Self Serve is our self-service and payment solution that is sold to Canon, FedEx Office, Konica Minolta,
Ricoh, Staples,, and Xerox. Fiery Self Serve is also marketed to college campuses and libraries.

Our proofing products are sold primarily to authorized distributors, dealers, and resellers who in turn sell the
solutions to end users either stand-alone or bundled with other solutions they offer. Primary customers with
whom we have established distribution agreements include Canon, Xerox, and Heidelberg. There can be no
assurance that we will continue to successfully distribute our products through these channels.

Growth and Expansion Strategies

The growth and expansion of our revenue will be derived from (i) product innovation through internal
development efforts or business acquisition, (ii) increasing market coverage through internal efforts or business
acquisition, (iii) expanding the addressable market, and (iv) establishing enterprise coherence and leveraging
industry standardization.

Product Innovation. We achieve product innovation through internal research and development efforts, as well
as by acquiring businesses with technology that is synergistic with our product lines and may be attractive to our
customers. We expect to expand and improve our offerings of new generations of Industrial Inkjet products,
including super-wide and wide format, textile, label and packaging, and ceramic tile decoration industrial digital
inkjet printers. We expect to expand and improve our Productivity Software offerings, including new product
lines related to digital printing, graphic arts, fulfillment systems, cross-media marketing, image personalization,
workflow, packaging, 3D textile design, and print management.

We have established relationships with many leading distribution companies in the graphic arts and commercial
print industries such as Nazdar, 3M, and Veritiv, as well as significant printer manufacturing companies
including Xerox, Ricoh, Canon, and Konica Minolta. We have also established global relationships with many of
the leading print providers, such as R.R. Donnelley, Donnelley Financial Solutions, FedEx Office, and Staples.
These direct sales relationships, along with dealer arrangements, are important for our understanding of the end
markets for our products and serve as a source of future product development ideas. In many cases, our products
are customized for the needs of large customers, yet maintain the common intuitive interfaces that we are known
for around the world.

The development of our Productivity Suite also provides tools to facilitate customer revenue growth, efficient
scheduling, and optimization of processes, equipment, and personnel. Customers are provided the financial and
technical flexibility to deploy locally within their business or to be hosted in the cloud.

Increasing Market Coverage. We are increasing our market coverage through penetration of our sales and
distribution networks, expansion into emerging markets in China, India, Latin America and Asia Pacific
(“APAC”), and acquisitions that are synergistic with our other businesses such as the Rialco and Optitex
acquisitions.

Expanding the Addressable Market. We are expanding our addressable market by extending into new markets
within each of our operating segments such as textile digital inkjet printing, textile 3D design, ceramic tile
decoration, thermoplastic pre-decoration, image personalization, imposition solutions, various cloud-based

13

software solutions, self-service and payment solutions, and mobile printing. Further growth in the addressable
markets for Industrial Inkjet, Productivity Software, and Fiery has been driven by our development of an
integrated VUTEk / Fiery / Productivity Software production workflow.

Establish Enterprise Coherence and Leverage Industry Standardization. Our goal is to offer best of breed
solutions that are interoperable and conform to open standards, which will allow customers to configure the most
efficient solution for their business by establishing enterprise coherence and leveraging industry standardization.

We establish coherence across our product lines by designing products and platforms that provide a consistent
“look and feel” to the end user. Cross-product coherence creates higher productivity levels as a result of
shortened learning curves. The integrated coherence that end users can achieve using our products for all of their
digital printing and imaging needs leads to a lower total cost of ownership. Open architecture utilizing industry-
established standards to provide interoperability across a range of digital printing devices and software
applications ultimately provides end users with more choice and flexibility in their selection of products. For
example, integration between our cloud-based Digital StoreFront application, our Pace business process
automation application, and our Fiery XF Production Color RIP including integration to our Fiery or VUTEk
product lines, is achieved by leveraging the industry standard Job Definition Format. Our Productivity Suite has
taken this integration further through end-to-end automation including certified workflows and synchronized
releases across multiple products consisting of our Packaging Suite, Corrugated Packaging Suite, Enterprise
Commercial Print Suite, Publication Print Suite, Mid-market Print Suite, Quick Print Suite, and Value Added
Products.

Recent Business Acquisitions. We achieve product innovation through internal research and development
efforts, as well as by acquiring businesses with technology that is synergistic with our product lines and may be
attractive to our customers. We also acquire businesses to expand our market coverage and customer base. The
impact of our business acquisitions on product innovation, market coverage, and addressable market during 2016,
2015, and 2014 is summarized as follows:

Backlog

Although we obtain firm purchase orders from our significant printer manufacturer customers in our Fiery
operating segment, these customers typically do not issue such purchase orders until 30 to 90 days before
shipment. The non-linear nature of our Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software operating segments results in
customer contracts and purchase orders that are not shipped at the end of the year, which are not material and are
not a meaningful indicator of future business prospects.

Significant Relationships

We have established and continue to build and expand relationships with the leading printer manufacturers and
distributors of digital printing technology to benefit from their products, distribution channels, and marketing
resources. Our customers include domestic and international manufacturers, distributors, and sellers of digital
copiers. We work closely with the leading printer manufacturers to develop solutions that incorporate leading
technology and work optimally in conjunction with their products. The top revenue-generating printer
manufacturers, in alphabetical order, that we sold products to in 2016 were Canon, Seiko Epson, Fuji Xerox,
Konica Minolta, Kyocera Document Solutions, Landa, OKI Data, Ricoh, RISO Global Network, Sharp, Toshiba,
and Xerox. Because sales of our printer and copier-related products constitute a significant portion of our Fiery
revenue and there are a limited number of printer manufacturers producing copiers and printers in sufficient
volume to be attractive customers for us, we expect to continue to depend on a relatively small number of printer
manufacturers for a significant portion of our revenue in future periods. Revenue from the leading printer
manufacturers was 28%, 33%, and 33% during 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. Although end customer and
reseller channel preference for Fiery products drives demand, most Fiery revenue relies on the leading printer
manufacturer / distributors to integrate Fiery technology into the design and development of their print engines.
Accordingly, if we experience reduced sales or lose an important printer manufacturing customer, we will have
difficulty replacing the revenue with sales to new or existing customers.

We customarily enter into development and distribution agreements with our significant printer manufacturer
customers. These agreements can be terminated under a range of circumstances and often on relatively short
notice. The circumstances under which an agreement can be terminated vary from agreement to agreement and
there can be no assurance that these significant printer manufacturers will continue to purchase products from us
in the future, despite such agreements. Our agreements generally do not commit such customers to make future
purchases from us. They could decline to purchase products from us in the future and could purchase and offer
products from our competitors, or develop their own products for sale to the end customer. We recognize the
importance of, and strive to maintain, our relationships with the leading printer manufacturers. Relationships
with these companies are affected by a number of factors including, among others: competition from other
suppliers, competition from their own internal development efforts, and changes in general economic,
competitive, or market conditions including changes in demand for our products, changes in demand for the
printer manufacturers’ products, industry consolidation, or fluctuations in currency exchange rates. There can be
no assurance that we will continue to maintain or build the relationships we have developed to date. See Item 1A:
Risk Factors—We do not typically have long-term purchase commitments with the printer manufacturer
customers that purchase our Fiery DFE and software solutions. They have in the past reduced or ceased, and
could at any time in the future reduce or cease, to purchase products from us, thereby harming our operating
results and business.

We have a continuing relationship pursuant to a license agreement with Adobe Systems, Inc. (“Adobe”). We
license PostScript® software from Adobe for use in many of our Fiery solutions under the OEM Distribution and
License Agreement entered into in September 2005, as amended from time to time. Under our agreement with
Adobe, we have a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Adobe deliverables (including any software,
development tools, utilities, software development kits, fonts, drivers, documentation, or related materials). The
scope of additional licensing terms varies depending on the type of Adobe deliverable. Our current agreement
with Adobe was renewed on April 1, 2013 through March 31, 2018. The agreement can be terminated by either

15

party upon 120 days prior written notice. All royalties due to Adobe under the agreement are payable within 45
days after the end of each calendar quarter.

Each Fiery solution requires page description language software provided by Adobe, which is a leader in
providing page description software. Adobe’s PostScript® software is widely used to manage the geometry,
shape, and typography of hard copy documents. Adobe can terminate our current PostScript® software license
agreement without cause. Although to date we have successfully obtained licenses to use Adobe’s PostScript®
software when required, Adobe is not required to, and we cannot be certain that Adobe will, grant future licenses
to Adobe PostScript® software on reasonable terms, in a timely manner, or at all. In addition, to obtain licenses
from Adobe, Adobe requires that we obtain quality assurance approvals from them for our products that use
Adobe software. If Adobe does not grant us such licenses or approvals, if the Adobe licenses are terminated, or if
our relationship with Adobe is otherwise materially impaired, we would likely be unable to sell products that
incorporate Adobe PostScript® software. If that occurred, we would have to license, acquire, develop, or
re-establish our own competing software as a viable alternative for Adobe PostScript ® software and our financial
condition and results of operations could be significantly harmed for a period of time. See Item 1A: Risk
Factors—We license software used in most of our Fiery products and certain Productivity Software products
from Adobe and the loss of these licenses would prevent shipment of these products.

Our industrial inkjet printers require inkjet print heads that are manufactured by a limited number of suppliers. If
we experience difficulty obtaining print heads, our inkjet printer production would be limited. In addition, we
manufacture UV curable and ceramic digital ink for use in our printers and rely on a limited number of suppliers
for certain pigments used in our ink. Our ink sales would decline significantly if we were unable to obtain the
pigments when needed. See Item 1A: Risk Factors—We depend on a limited group of suppliers for key
components in our products. The loss of any of these suppliers, the inability of any of these suppliers to meet our
requirements, or delays or shortages of supply of these components could adversely affect our business.

Human Resources

As of December 31, 2016, we employed 3,235 full time employees. Approximately 950 were in sales and
marketing (including 398 in customer service), 418 were in general and administrative, 658 were in
manufacturing, and 1,209 were in research and development. Of the total number of employees, 1,531 employees
were located in the Americas (primarily the U.S. and Brazil) and 1,704 were located outside of the Americas.

Research and Development

Research and development expense was $151.2, $141.4, and $134.7 million for the years ended December 31,
2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. As of December 31, 2016, 1,209 of our 3,235 full-time employees were
involved in research and development. We believe that development of new products and enhancement of
existing products are essential to our continued success. We intend to continue to devote substantial resources to
research and new product development. We expect to continue to make significant expenditures to support
research and development in the foreseeable future.

New platforms and ink formulations will continue to be developed for Industrial Inkjet print technologies and
ceramic tile decoration as the industry accelerates its transition from analog to digital technology, from solvent-
based printing to UV curable ink printing, and adopts digital textile printing due to the growth of “fast fashion.”
We are developing new software applications designed to maximize work flow efficiencies and meet the needs of
graphic arts and commercial print professions, including business process automation, web-to-print, e-commerce,
cross-media marketing, imposition, proofing solutions, and 3D textile CAD applications. We are developing
products to support additional printing devices including high-end color copiers and multi-functional devices. We
have research and development sites in 15 U.S. locations, as well as in India, Europe, Israel, the United Kingdom
(“U.K.”), Brazil, Canada, New Zealand, China, Australia, and Japan. Substantial additional expense is required to
complete and bring to market products that are currently under development.

16

Manufacturing

We are leveraging efficiencies in our worldwide digital inkjet printer manufacturing operations by centralizing
super wide-format textile digital inkjet printer production in Italy and transferring production of super wide-
format roll-to-roll digital inkjet printers to Israel to leverage the lower cost platform that Matan provides.

We utilize subcontractors to manufacture our Fiery products and, to a lesser extent, our super-wide and wide
format industrial digital inkjet printers. These subcontractors work closely with us to promote low cost and high
quality while manufacturing our products. Subcontractors purchase components needed for our products from
third parties. We are dependent on the ability of our subcontractors to produce the products we sell. Although we
supervise our subcontractors, there can be no assurance that such subcontractors will perform efficiently or
effectively. We have outsourced our Fiery production with Avnet, Inc. (“Avnet”), label and packaging digital
inkjet printer production to Roberts Tool Company (“Roberts”), and formulation of textile ink to third party
branded suppliers, with the exception of reactive dye ink.

Should our subcontractors experience inability or unwillingness to manufacture or deliver our products, then our
business, financial condition, and operations could be harmed. Since we generally do not maintain long-term
agreements with our subcontractors and such agreements may be terminated with relatively short notice, any of
our subcontractors could terminate their relationship with us and/or enter into agreements with our competitors
that might restrict or prohibit them from manufacturing our products or could otherwise lead to an inability or
unwillingness to fill our orders in a timely manner or at all. See Item 1A: Risk Factors—We are dependent on a
limited number of subcontractors, with whom we do not have long-term contracts, to manufacture and deliver
products to our customers. The loss of any of these subcontractors could adversely affect our business.

Our VUTEk super-wide format industrial digital inkjet printers are primarily manufactured in a single location in
our Meredith, New Hampshire facility. In 2016, we transferred VUTEk roll-to-roll printer production to our Rosh
Ha’Ayin, Israel, facility, our FabriVu textile digital inkjet printer production to our Bergamo, Italy, facility, and
certain wide format industrial digital inkjet printers to our Castellon, Spain, facility.

We have encountered difficulties in hiring and retaining adequate skilled labor and management because
Meredith is not located in a major metropolitan area. In 2016, we entered into a six-year lease with Bank of
Tokyo—Mitsubishi UFJ Leasing & Finance LLC (“BTMU”) whereby a 225,000 square foot manufacturing and
warehouse facility is under construction in Manchester, New Hampshire, related to our super-wide and wide
format industrial digital inkjet printer business in the Industrial Inkjet operating segment, which is scheduled to
be completed in early 2018. The new manufacturing center will allow consolidation of operations into a single
facility and include research & development, manufacturing, warehousing, training, and service for super-wide
and wide format printers, along with worldwide sales and marketing management for our broader portfolio of
industrial digital inkjet printers and presses.

Our Matan super-wide format industrial digital inkjet printers are manufactured in a single location in our Rosh
Ha’Ayin, Israel facility. Our Reggiani textile industrial digital inkjet printers are manufactured in a single
location in our Bergamo, Italy facility. Our Cretaprint ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printers are
manufactured in a single location in our Castellon, Spain facility. Our ceramic digital ink that is used in our
ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printers is formulated in a single location in our Ypsilanti, Michigan facility.
Our reactive dye ink that is used in our textile digital inkjet printers is formulated in a single location in our
Bedford, U.K., facility.

Most components used to manufacture our printers and ink are available from multiple suppliers, except for
inkjet print heads, branded textile ink, and certain key ingredients (primarily pigments and photoinitiators) for
our digital UV curable ink. Although typically in low volumes, many key components are sourced from single
vendors. If we were unable to obtain the print heads currently used, we would be required to redesign our printers
to use different print heads. If we were unable to obtain the branded textile ink or the pigments required for our
digital UV curable ink, we would have to qualify other sources, if possible, or reformulate and test the new ink

formulations. In our Industrial Inkjet facilities, we use hazardous materials to formulate digital UV curable and
ceramic digital ink, as well as store internally formulated and third party ink. The storage, use, and disposal of
those materials must meet the requirements of various environmental regulations.

See Item 1A: Risk Factors—If we are not able to hire and retain skilled employees, we may not be able to
develop and manufacture products, or meet demand for our products, in a timely fashion; We manufacture our
super-wide format industrial digital inkjet printers and formulate our ceramic digital ink primarily in single
locations. Any significant interruption in the manufacturing process at these facilities could adversely affect our
business; We depend on a limited group of suppliers for key components in our products. The loss of any of these
suppliers, the inability of any of these suppliers to meet our requirements, or delays or shortages of supply of
these components, could adversely affect our business; and We may be subject to environmental-related
liabilities due to our use of hazardous materials and solvents.

Significant components necessary for manufacturing our products are obtained from a sole supplier or a limited
group of suppliers. We depend largely on the following sole and limited source suppliers for our components and
manufacturing services:

Toshiba

Open Silicon
Altera
Tundra

We generally do not maintain long-term agreements with our component suppliers. We primarily conduct
business with such suppliers largely on a purchase order basis. If any of our sole or limited source suppliers were
unwilling or unable to supply us with the components for which we rely on them, we may be unable to continue
manufacturing our products utilizing such components.

The absence of agreements with many of our suppliers also subjects us to pricing fluctuations, which is a factor
we believe is partially offset by the desire of our suppliers to sell a high quantity of components. Many of our
components are similar to those used in personal computers; consequently, the demand and price fluctuations of
personal computer components could affect our component costs. In the event of unanticipated volatility in

18

demand for our products, we may be unable to manufacture certain products in quantities sufficient to meet end
user demand or we may hold excess quantities of inventory due to their long lead times. We maintain an
inventory of components for which we are dependent on sole or limited source suppliers and of components with
prices that fluctuate significantly. We cannot ensure that at any given time we will have sufficient inventory to
enable us to meet demand for our products, which would harm our financial results. See Item 1A: Risk Factors—
We depend on a limited group of suppliers for key components in our products. The loss of any of these suppliers,
the inability of any of these suppliers to meet our requirements, or delays or shortages of supply of these
components could adversely affect our business.

Competition

Competition in our markets is significant and involves rapidly changing technologies and frequent new product
introductions. To maintain and improve our competitive position, we must continue to develop and introduce
new products and features on a timely and cost effective basis to keep pace with the evolving needs of our
customers. We believe the principal competitive factor affecting our markets is the market acceptance rates for
new printing technology.

Industrial Inkjet

Our super-wide and wide format industrial digital inkjet printers compete with printers produced by Agfa,
Domino, Durst, Canon, Hewlett-Packard (“HP”), Inca, Mimaki, Roland, and Mutoh throughout most of the
world. There are Chinese and Korean printer manufacturers in the marketplace, but their products are typically
sold in their domestic markets and are not perceived as viable alternatives in most other markets. Our UV curable
ink is sold to users of our UV industrial inkjet printers, which have advanced quality control systems to ensure
that correct color and non-expired ink is used to prevent damage to the printer. This results in most ink used in
our printers being sold by us. While third party ink is available, its use may compromise the printer’s quality
control system and also voids most provisions of our printer warranty and service contracts.

Our Reggiani industrial digital inkjet textile printers compete with Dover, Durst, Mimaki, Roland, Epson, Konica
Minolta, Robustelli, Atexco, Shenzhen Homer Textile, Kornit, Brother Industries, and Digital Graphics.
Competitive digital inkjet textile printers are manufactured in Italy, Japan, China, and smaller emerging markets
such as Indonesia. Key competitors driving digitalization of the textile printer market include Dover, Kornit, and
Brother Industries. Reggiani also competes with other digital inkjet textile printing technologies including
pre-washing and post-washing printing techniques.

Our Cretaprint ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printer competes with ceramic tile decoration printers
manufactured in Spain (KERAjet), Austria (Durst), Italy (Technoferrari, Projecta, Intesa, and System), China
(Flora, Hope, Meijia, and Teckwin), and smaller emerging competition in other markets such as Indonesia. The
ceramic tile industry is experiencing an ongoing relocation from southern Europe to the emerging markets of
China, India, Brazil, and Indonesia. Competition in the Chinese market consists of small Chinese ceramic tile
decoration digital inkjet printers and European manufacturers that are reducing prices to gain market share. In
addition to our facility in Spain, we operate a Cretaprint sales and support center in Foshan, Guangdong, China,
which is home to the largest concentration of ceramic tile manufacturers in China.

Productivity Software

Our Productivity Software operating segment, which includes our business process automation, cloud-based
order entry and order management systems, cross media marketing, and imposition solution systems faces
competition from software application vendors that specifically target the printing industry. These vendors are
typically small, privately-owned companies. We also face competition from larger vendors that currently offer,
or are seeking to develop, business process automation printing products including HP, Epicor, and SAP. We
face competition from Oracle, SAP, Kiwiplan, and Heidelberg in the packaging software market.

Our Optitex 3D CAD software competes with Lectra, Assyst, CLO, Browzwear, and Gerber. Optitex provides
2D CAD design and 3D CAD visualization in the same application. Therefore, the CAD information and the 3D
information are tightly integrated. Furthermore, the incremental learning curve from using 2D to using 3D is
minimal.

Fiery

The principal competitive factors affecting the market for our Fiery solutions include customer service and
support, product reputation, quality, performance, price, and product features such as functionality, scalability,
ease of use, and ability to interface with products produced by the significant printer manufacturers.

Although we have direct relationships with each of the leading printer manufacturers and work closely with them
to integrate Fiery DFE and software technology into the design and development of their print engines to
maximize their quality and capability, our primary competitors for stand-alone color DFEs, embedded DFEs, and
design-licensed solutions are these same leading printer manufacturing companies. They each maintain
substantial investments in research and development. Some of this investment is targeted at integrating products
and technology that we have designed and some of this investment is targeted at developing products and
technology that compete with our Fiery brand. We are the largest third party DFE developer, although our market
compared with DFEs developed internally by the leading printer manufacturers is small. We believe that our
advantages include continuously advancing technology, short time-to-market, brand recognition, end user
loyalty, sizable installed base, number of products supported, price driven by lower development costs, and
market knowledge. We intend to continue to develop new DFEs with capabilities that meet the changing needs of
the printer manufacturers’ product development roadmaps. Although we do not directly control the distribution
channels, we provide a variety of features as well as unique “look and feel” to the printer manufacturers’
products to differentiate our customers’ products from those of their competitors. Ultimately, we believe that end
customer and reseller channel preference for the Fiery DFE and software solutions drives demand for Fiery
products through the printer manufacturers.

Intellectual Property Rights

We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret laws; non-disclosure agreements; and
other contractual provisions to establish, maintain, and protect our intellectual property rights. Although we
believe that our intellectual property rights are important to our business, no single patent, copyright, trademark,
or trade secret is solely responsible for the development and manufacturing of our products.

We are currently pursuing patent applications in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions to protect various
inventions. Over time, we have accumulated a portfolio of patents issued in these jurisdictions. We own or have
rights to the copyrights to the software code in our products and the rights to the trademarks under which our
products are marketed. We have registered certain trademarks in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions and
will continue to evaluate the registration of additional trademarks as appropriate.

Certain of our products include intellectual property licensed from our customers. We have also granted and may
continue to grant licenses to our intellectual property, when and as we deem appropriate. For a discussion of risks
relating to our intellectual property, see Item 1A: Risk Factors—We may be unable to adequately protect our
proprietary information and may incur expenses to defend our proprietary information.

Financial Information about Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales

See Note 14—Segment Information, Geographic Regions, and Major Customers and Note 11—Income Taxes of
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. See also Item 1A: Risk Factors—We face risks from our
international operations and We face risks from currency fluctuations.

Item 1A: Risk Factors

The market for our super-wide and wide format industrial digital inkjet printers is extremely competitive.

Our super-wide and wide format industrial digital inkjet products compete against several companies that market
industrial digital inkjet printing systems based on electrostatic, drop-on-demand, and continuous drop-on-demand
inkjet, and other technologies and printers utilizing UV curable ink including Agfa, Domino, Durst, Canon, HP,
Inca, Mimaki, Roland, and Mutoh. Certain competitors have greater resources to develop new products and
technologies and market those products, as well as acquire or develop critical components at lower costs, which
would provide them with a competitive advantage. They could also exert downward pressure on product pricing
to gain market share.

Reggiani industrial digital inkjet textile printers address the full scope of advanced textile printing with versatile
printers suitable for water-based dispersed, acid, pigment, and reactive dye printing inks. Our Reggiani textile
printers compete with Dover, Durst, Mimaki, Roland, Epson, Konica Minolta, Robustelli, Atexco, Shenzhen
Homer Textile, Kornit, Brother Industries, and Digital Graphics. Competitive digital inkjet textile printers are
manufactured in Italy, Japan, China, and smaller emerging markets such as Indonesia. Reggiani also competes
with other digital inkjet textile printing technologies including pre-washing and post-washing printing
techniques.

The local competitors in the Chinese and Korean markets are developing, manufacturing, and selling inexpensive
printers mainly to the local markets. Our ability to compete depends on factors both within and outside of our
control, including the price, performance, and acceptance of our current printers and any products we develop in
the future.

We also face competition from existing conventional super-wide and wide format digital inkjet printing methods,
including screen printing and offset printing. Our competitors could develop new products, with existing or new
technology, that could be more competitive in our market than our printers.

The market for our ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printers is very competitive.

Our Cretaprint ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printer competes with ceramic tile decoration printers
manufactured in Spain, Austria, Italy, Brazil, China, and smaller emerging competitors in other markets such as
Indonesia. The ceramic tile industry is experiencing an ongoing relocation from southern Europe to the emerging
markets of China, India, Brazil, and Indonesia. Competition in the Chinese market consists of small Chinese
ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printers and European manufacturers that are reducing prices to gain market
share. In addition to our facility in Spain, we operate a Cretaprint sales and support center in Foshan, Guangdong,
China, which is home to the largest concentration of ceramic tile manufacturers in China.

Most ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printer manufacturers have a background in analog equipment for
ceramic tile plants and tile manufacturing facilities, while Durst and Flora entered the ceramic tile decoration
market from the digital graphic arts business. Our ceramic tile decoration imaging competitors are a mix of large,
medium, and small ceramic tile decoration printer manufacturers, which are primarily privately-owned. Our
competitors could develop new products, with existing or new technology, that could be more competitive in our
market than our ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printers.

We face strong competition for printing supplies such as ink.

We compete with independent manufacturers in the ink market consisting of smaller vendors, as well as larger
vendors such as DuPont Digital Printing.

Our UV curable ink is sold to users of our super-wide and wide format UV industrial inkjet printers, which have
advanced quality control systems to ensure that correct color and non-expired ink is used to prevent damage to

21

the printer. This results in most ink used in our super-wide and wide format printers being sold by us. While third
party ink is available, its use compromises the printer’s quality control system and also voids most provisions of
our printer warranty and service contracts. Nevertheless, we cannot guarantee we will be able to remain the
principal ink supplier for our printers. We could experience an overall price reduction within the ink market,
which would also adversely affect our gross profit.

We sell third party branded textile ink to users of our textile digital inkjet printer. We offer a strong value
proposition with our third party branded inks, but cannot guarantee that we will be the primary supplier of textile
digital ink to the users of our printers.

Our solvent-based ceramic digital ink is sold to users of our ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printers. The
ceramic ink market is generally an open system for inks and therefore customers may change between suppliers.
Although we are focused on developing this recurring revenue stream, we cannot guarantee that we will become
the primary supplier of ceramic digital ink to the users of our printers.

If the market for digital textile printing does not develop as we anticipate, we may not be able to grow our
inkjet textile printing business.

If the global printed textile industry does not broadly accept digital printing as an alternative to either analog
printing or single color (dyed) garments, our revenue may not grow as quickly as expected. Widespread adoption
of digital textile printing depends on the willingness and ability of businesses in the printed textile industry to
replace their existing analog printing systems and single color (dyed) garments with digital printing systems. The
adoption of digital textile printing is dependent to some extent on the growth of “fast fashion.”

A key element of our digital inkjet textile printing growth strategy is to market digital inkjet printing systems to
contract printers that serve major textile brand owners and fashion designers. If leading textile brand owners and
fashion designers are not convinced of the benefits of digital inkjet textile printing or if there is a significant
reduction in the popularity of printed textiles, especially those that are customized or personalized, among the
consumers to whom such brand owners and fashion designers cater, or if these businesses decide that digital
inkjet printing processes are less reliable, less cost-effective, lower quality, or otherwise less suitable for their
commercial needs than analog printing processes and single color (dyed) garments, then the market for digital
textile printing may not develop as we anticipate and we may not be able to grow our inkjet textile printing
business.

We face strong competition in our Productivity Software operating segment.

Our Productivity Software operating segment, which includes our business process automation, cloud-based
order entry and order management, cross media marketing, and imposition solution systems faces competition
from software application vendors that specifically target the printing industry. These vendors are typically small,
privately-owned companies. We also face competition from larger vendors that currently offer, or are seeking to
develop, business process automation printing products including HP, Epicor, and SAP. We face competition
from Oracle, SAP, SolarSoft, and Heidelberg in the packaging software market. Our Optitex 3D CAD software
competes with Lectra, Assyst, CLO, Browzwear, and Gerber. There can be no assurance that we will continue to
advance our technology and products or compete effectively against other companies’ product offerings.

We do not typically have long-term purchase commitments with the printer manufacturer customers that
purchase our Fiery DFE and software solutions. They have in the past reduced or ceased, and could at any
time in the future reduce or cease, to purchase products from us, thereby harming our operating results
and business.

Although end customer and reseller channel preference for Fiery DFE and software solutions drives demand,
most Fiery revenue relies on printer manufacturers to integrate Fiery technology into the design and development

22

of their print engines. We have established direct relationships with several leading printer manufacturers and
work closely with them to design, develop, and integrate Fiery DFE and software technology to maximize the
capability of their print engines. These manufacturers act as distributors and sell Fiery products to end customers
through reseller channels. A significant portion of our revenue is, and has been, generated by sales of our Fiery
DFE and software solutions to a relatively small number of leading printer manufacturers. Our reliance on
revenue from the leading printer manufacturers was 28%, 33%, and 33% during 2016, 2015, and 2014,
respectively. Because sales of our Fiery products constitute a significant portion of our revenue and there are a
limited number of printer manufacturers producing printers in sufficient volume to be attractive customers for us,
we expect that we will continue to depend on a relatively small number of printer manufacturers for a significant
portion of our Fiery revenue in future periods. Accordingly, if we lose or experience reduced sales to one of these
printer manufacturer customers, we will have difficulty replacing that revenue with sales to new or existing
customers.

With the exception of certain minimum purchase obligations, we typically do not have long-term volume
purchase contracts with our significant printer manufacturer customers, including Konica Minolta, Ricoh, and
Canon, and they are not obligated to purchase products from us. Accordingly, our printer manufacturer customers
could at any time reduce their purchases from us or cease purchasing our products altogether. For example, in
2016, one of our significant printer manufactures purchased less inventory from us and this reduction may
continue into 2017, which could impact revenue from our Fiery segment. In the past, these printer manufacturer
customers have elected to develop products on their own for sale to end customers, incorporated technologies
developed by other companies into their products, and have directly sold third party competitive products, rather
than rely solely or partially on our products. We expect that these printer manufacturer customers will continue to
make such elections in the future.

Many of the products and technologies we are developing require that we coordinate development, quality
testing, marketing, and other tasks with these printer manufacturers. We cannot control their development efforts
or the timing of these efforts. We rely on these printer manufacturers to develop new printer and copier solutions,
applications, and product enhancements that utilize our Fiery DFE technologies and software solutions in a
timely and cost-effective manner. Our success in the DFE industry depends on the ability of these printer
manufacturers to utilize our technologies to develop the right solutions with the right features to meet ever
changing customer requirements and responding to emerging industry standards and other technological changes.

Because our printer manufacturer customers incorporate our products into products they manufacture and sell,
any decline in demand for copiers or laser printers or any other negative developments affecting our major
customers or the computer industry in general, including reduced end user demand, would likely harm our results
of operations. Certain printer manufacturer customers have experienced serious financial difficulties in the past,
which led to a decline in sales of our products. If any significant customers face such difficulties in the future,
our operating results could be harmed through, among other things, decreased sales volume, write-off of accounts
receivable, and write-off of inventories related to products we have manufactured for these customers’ products.

Entry into new markets or distribution channels could result in higher operating expenses that may not be
offset by increased revenue.

We continue to explore opportunities to develop or acquire additional product lines in new markets, such as print
management business process automation software, document scanning solutions, textile digital ink, and
industrial inkjet printers. We expect to continue to invest funds to develop new markets or distribution channels
for these and additional new products and services, which will increase our operating expenses.

We do not know if we will be successful in developing these channels, or whether the market will accept any of
our new products or services, or if we will generate sufficient revenue from these activities to offset the
additional operating expenses we incur. Even if we are able to introduce new products or services, if customers
do not accept these new products or services, or if we are not able to price such products or services
competitively, our results of operations will likely be adversely affected.

23

Economic uncertainty has negatively affected our business in the past and may negatively affect our
business in the future.

Our revenue and profitability depend significantly on the overall demand for information technology products
that enable printing of digital data, which in turn depends on a variety of macro- and micro-economic conditions.
In addition, revenue growth and profitability in our Industrial Inkjet operating segment depends on demand and
spending for advertising and marketing products and programs, which also depends on a variety of macro-and
micro-economic conditions.

Uncertainty about current global economic conditions, including Europe, poses a risk as our customers may delay
purchases of our products in response to tighter credit, negative financial news, and/or declines in income or
asset values. Any financial turmoil affecting the banking system and financial markets and the possibility that
financial institutions may consolidate or terminate their activities have resulted in a tightening in the credit
market, a low level of liquidity in many financial markets, and extreme volatility in fixed income, credit,
currency, and equity markets. There could be a number of follow-on effects from a credit crisis on our business,
including insolvency of key suppliers resulting in product delays; inability of customers and distributors to obtain
credit to finance purchases of our products and/or customer and distributor insolvencies; increased difficulty in
managing inventories; and other financial institutions negatively impacting our treasury operations.

Economic uncertainty is particularly acute in Europe and especially the “southern European” countries (i.e.,
Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Greece) and Ireland. We have no European sovereign debt investments. Our European
debt investments consist of non-sovereign corporate debt securities of $28.0 million, which represents 14% of
our corporate debt instruments (9% of our short-term investments) at December 31, 2016. European debt
investments are with corporations domiciled in the northern and central European countries of Sweden,
Netherlands, Norway, France, Switzerland, and the U.K. We do not have any short-term investments with
corporations domiciled in the higher risk “southern European” countries (i.e., Italy, Spain, Greece, and Portugal)
or Ireland. We believe that we do not have significant exposure with respect to our money market and corporate
debt investments in Europe, although we do have some exposure due to the interdependencies among the
European Union countries.

Since Europe is composed of varied countries and regional economies, our European risk profile is somewhat
more diversified due to the varying economic conditions among the countries. Approximately 28% of our
receivables are with European customers as of December 31, 2016. Of this amount, 26% of our European
receivables (7% of consolidated net receivables) are in the higher risk southern European countries (mostly
Spain, Portugal, and Italy), which are adequately reserved.

Our business, results of operations and financial condition may be negatively impacted by conditions
abroad, including local economies, political environments, fluctuating foreign currencies and shifting
regulatory schemes.

A significant amount of our revenue is generated from operations outside the U.S. Approximately $491.7 (50%),
$408.9 (46%), and $352.0 (45%) million of revenue for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014,
respectively, shipped to locations outside the Americas, primarily to Europe, Middle East, and Africa (“EMEA”)
and APAC. We expect that sales outside of the U.S. will continue to represent a significant portion of our total
revenue. We maintain significant operations and acquire or manufacture many of our products and/or their
components outside the U.S. Our future revenue, costs, and results of operations could be significantly affected
by changes in each country’s economic conditions, foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar,
political conditions, trade protection measures, licensing requirements, local tax issues, capitalization, and other
related legal matters. If our future revenue, costs, and results of operations are significantly affected by economic
conditions abroad, our results of operations and financial condition could be negatively impacted. Specifically,
the slowdown in China and other developing economies have negatively impacted, and may continue to
negatively impact, our results of operations.

24

We face risks from currency fluctuations.

Given the significance of non-U.S. sales to our total revenue, we face a continuing risk from the fluctuation of
the U.S. dollar versus foreign currencies. Although the majority of our receivables are invoiced and collected in
U.S. dollars, we have exposure from non-U.S. dollar-denominated sales (consisting of the Euro, British pound
sterling, Brazilian real, Chinese renminbi, Israeli shekel, Australian dollar, and New Zealand dollar). We have a
substantial number of international employees, resulting in material operating expenses denominated in foreign
currencies. We have exposure from non-U.S. dollar-denominated operating expenses in foreign countries
(primarily the Euro, British pound sterling, Chinese renminbi, Israeli shekel, Japanese yen, Indian rupee,
Brazilian real, and Australian dollar).

We can benefit from or be adversely affected by either a weaker or stronger U.S. dollar relative to major
currencies worldwide with respect to our consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, we can benefit from a
stronger U.S. dollar due to the corresponding reduction in our foreign operating expenses translated in U.S.
dollars and at the same time we can be adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar due to the corresponding
reduction in foreign revenue translated in U.S. dollars. We hedge our operating expense exposure in Indian
rupees. The notional amount of our Indian rupee cash flow hedge was $3.2 million at December 31, 2016.

Forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments consist of hedges of Brazilian real, British pound
sterling, Israeli shekel, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Chinese renminbi, and Euro-denominated intercompany
balances with notional amounts of $90.7 million; Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Australian dollar, Israeli
shekel, and Euro-denominated trade receivables with notional amounts of $39.8 million; and hedges of British
pounds sterling, Indian rupee, and Euro-denominated other net monetary assets with notional amounts of
$28.2 million at December 31, 2016. These forward contracts are not designated for hedge accounting treatment
since there is a natural offset for the remeasurement of the underlying foreign currency denominated asset or
liability.

As of December 31, 2016, we had not entered into hedges against any other currency exposures, but we may
consider hedging against movements in other currencies in the future. Our efforts to reduce risk from our
international operations and from fluctuations in foreign currencies or interest rates may not be successful, which
could harm our financial condition and operating results.

We face risks from our international operations.

We are subject to certain risks because of our international operations as follows:

•

•

•

•

•

•

restrictions on our ability to access cash generated by international operations, especially in China and
Brazil, due to restrictions on the repatriation of dividends, distribution of cash to shareholders outside
of such countries, foreign exchange control, and other restrictions,

security concerns, such as armed conflict and civil or military unrest, crime, political instability, and
terrorist activity;

customer credit risk, especially in emerging or economically challenged regions, with accompanying
challenges to enforce our legal rights should collection issues arise.

changes in governmental regulation, including labor regulations, and our inability or failure to obtain
required approvals, permits, or registrations could harm our international and domestic sales and
adversely affect our revenue, business, and operations,

violations of governmental regulation, including labor regulations, could result in fines and penalties,
including prohibiting us from exporting our products to one or more countries, and could materially
adversely affect our business,

international labor regulations may be substantially different than the regulations we are accustomed to
in the U.S., which may negatively impact labor efficiency and workforce relations,

25

•

•

•

trade legislation in either the U.S. or other countries, such as a change in the current tariff structures,
export compliance laws, or other trade policies, could adversely affect our ability to sell or manufacture
in international markets,

adverse tax consequences, including imposition of withholding or other taxes on payments by
subsidiaries, and

some of our sales to international customers are made under export licenses that must be obtained from
the U.S. Department of Commerce (“DOC”) and certain transactions require prior approval of the DOC
or other governmental agencies.

We incur additional legal compliance costs associated with our international operations and could become
subject to legal penalties in foreign countries if we do not comply with local laws and regulations, which may be
substantially different from those in the U.S. In many foreign countries, particularly those with developing
economies, it may be common to engage in business practices that are prohibited by U.S. regulations such as the
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended. Although we implement policies and procedures designed to
ensure compliance with these laws, there can be no assurance that all of our employees, contractors, and agents,
as well as outsourced business operations, including those based in or from countries where practices that violate
such U.S. laws may be customary, will not take actions in violation of our policies. Furthermore, there can be no
assurance that employees, contractors, and agents of acquired companies did not take actions in violation of such
laws and regulations prior to the date they were acquired by us, although we perform due diligence procedures to
endeavor to discover any such actions prior to the acquisition date.

We license software used in most of our Fiery products and certain Productivity Software products from
Adobe and the loss of these licenses would prevent shipment of these products.

We are required to obtain separate licenses from Adobe for the right to use Adobe PostScript® software in each
copier or printer model that uses a Fiery DFE, and other Adobe software for certain Productivity Software
products. Although to date we have successfully obtained licenses to use Adobe PostScript® and other Adobe
software when required, Adobe is not required to, and we cannot be certain that Adobe will, grant future licenses
to Adobe PostScript® and other Adobe software on reasonable terms, in a timely manner, or at all. To obtain
licenses from Adobe, Adobe requires that we obtain quality assurance approvals from them for our products that
use Adobe software. Although to date we have successfully obtained such quality assurance approvals from
Adobe, we cannot be certain they will grant us such approvals in the future. If Adobe does not grant us such
licenses or approvals, if the Adobe licenses are terminated, or if our relationship is otherwise materially impaired,
we would likely be unable to sell products that incorporate Adobe PostScript® or other Adobe software and our
financial condition and results of operations would be significantly harmed.

We manufacture our super-wide and wide format industrial digital inkjet printers and formulate our
ceramic digital ink primarily in single locations. Any significant interruption in the manufacturing process
at these facilities could adversely affect our business.

Our VUTEk super-wide and wide format industrial digital inkjet printers are primarily manufactured in a single
location in our Meredith, New Hampshire facility. In 2016, we transferred VUTEk roll-to-roll printer production
to our Rosh Ha’Ayin, Israel, facility, our FabriVu textile digital inkjet printer production to our Bergamo, Italy,
facility, and certain wide format industrial digital inkjet printers to our Castellon, Spain, facility.

Our Matan super-wide format industrial digital inkjet printers are manufactured in a single location in our Rosh
Ha’Ayin, Israel facility. Our Reggiani industrial digital inkjet textile printers are manufactured in a single
location in our Bergamo, Italy facility. Our Cretaprint ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printers are
manufactured in a single location in our Castellon, Spain facility. Our ceramic digital ink that is used in our
ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printers is formulated in a single location in our Ypsilanti, Michigan facility.
We formulate our reactive dye ink that is used in our textile digital inkjet printers is formulated in a single

26

location in our Bedford, U.K., facility. Any significant interruption in the manufacturing process at any of these
facilities could affect the supply of our product, our ability to meet customer demand, and our ability to maintain
market share.

We are developing contingency plans utilizing our manufacturing facilities in multiple locations and the
capabilities of certain contract manufacturers in the event of a significant interruption in the manufacturing
process at any of the aforementioned facilities. Until those plans are complete, disruptions in the manufacturing
process at any of our sole source internal facilities could adversely affect our business.

We depend on a limited group of suppliers for key components in our products. The loss of any of these
suppliers, the inability of any of these suppliers to meet our requirements, or delays or shortages of supply
of these components, could adversely affect our business.

Certain components necessary for the manufacture of our products are obtained from a sole supplier or a limited
group of suppliers. These include CPUs, chip sets, ASICs, and other related semiconductor components; inkjet
print heads for our super-wide and wide format, textile, label and packaging, and ceramic tile decoration
industrial digital inkjet printers; branded textile ink; and certain key ingredients (primarily pigments and
photoinitiators) for our digital UV curable ink. We generally do not maintain long-term agreements with our
component suppliers and conduct business with such suppliers largely on a purchase order basis. If we are unable
to continue to procure these sole or limited sourced components from our current suppliers in the required
quantities, we will have to qualify other sources, if possible, or redesign our products. If we were unable to obtain
the branded textile ink or the pigments required for our digital UV curable ink, we would have to qualify other
sources, if possible, or reformulate and test the new ink formulations. These suppliers may be concentrated
within similar industries or geographic locations, which could potentially exacerbate these risks. We cannot
provide assurance that other sources of these components exist or will be willing to supply us on reasonable
terms or at all, or that we will be able to design around these components. Any unavailability, delays, or
shortages of these components or any inability of our suppliers to meet our requirements, could harm our
business.

Because the purchase of certain key components involves long lead times, in the event of unanticipated volatility
in demand for our products, we have in the past been, and may in the future be, unable to manufacture certain
products in a quantity sufficient to meet demand. Further, as has occurred in the past, in the event that anticipated
demand does not materialize, we may hold excess quantities of inventory that could become obsolete. To meet
projected demand, we maintain an inventory of components for which we are dependent on sole or limited source
suppliers and components with prices that fluctuate significantly. As a result, we are subject to risk of inventory
obsolescence, which could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

Market prices and availability of certain components, particularly memory subsystems and Intel-designed
components, which collectively represent a substantial portion of the total manufactured cost of our products,
have fluctuated significantly in the past. Such fluctuations could have a material adverse effect on our operating
results and financial condition including reduced gross profit.

We are dependent on a limited number of subcontractors, with whom we generally do not have long-term
contracts, to manufacture and deliver products to our customers. The loss of any of these subcontractors
could adversely affect our business.

We subcontract with other companies to manufacture certain of our products and we generally do not have long-
term agreements with these subcontractors. While we closely monitor our subcontractors’ performance, we
cannot be assured that such subcontractors will continue to manufacture our products in a timely and effective
manner. In the past, a weakened economy led to the dissolution, bankruptcy, or consolidation of some of our
subcontractors, which decreased the available number of subcontractors. If the available number of
subcontractors were to decrease in the future, it is possible that we would not be able to secure appropriate
subcontractors to fulfill our demand in a timely manner, or at all, particularly if demand for our products
increases.

27

The existence of fewer subcontractors may reduce our negotiating leverage, thereby potentially resulting in
higher product costs. Financial problems resulting in the inability of our subcontractors to make or ship our
products, could harm our business, operating results, and financial condition. If we change subcontractors, we
could experience delays in finding, qualifying, and commencing business with new subcontractors, which would
result in delayed delivery of our products and potentially the cancellation of orders for our products.

We have outsourced our Fiery production with Avnet, label and packaging digital inkjet printer production with
Roberts, and formulation of certain textile ink with third party branded suppliers. Certain Industrial Inkjet
sub-assemblies are manufactured by subcontractors. Should our subcontractors experience any inability, or
unwillingness, to manufacture or deliver our products, then our business, financial condition, and operations
could be harmed. Since we generally do not maintain long-term agreements with our subcontractors, any of our
subcontractors could enter into agreements with our competitors that might restrict or prohibit them from
manufacturing our products or could otherwise lead to an inability to fill our orders in a timely manner. In such
event, we may not be able to find suitable replacement subcontractors, in which case our financial condition and
operations would likely be harmed.

We may face increased risk of inventory obsolescence, excess, or shortages related to our Industrial Inkjet
printers and ink.

We procure raw materials and internally manufacture our super-wide and wide format, textile, and ceramic tile
decoration industrial digital inkjet printers and formulate digital UV curable and ceramic digital ink based on our
sales forecasts. If we do not accurately forecast demand for our products, we may produce or purchase excess
inventory, which may result in our inventory becoming obsolete. We might not produce the correct mix of
products to match actual demand if our sales forecast is not accurate, resulting in lost sales. If we have excess
printers, ink, or other products, we may need to lower prices to stimulate demand.

Our ink products have a defined shelf life. If we do not sell the ink before the end of its shelf life, it will have to
be written off. We have also experienced UV curable ink shortages in the past and may continue to experience
such shortages in the future. UV curable ink shortages may require that we incur additional costs to respond to
increased demand and overcome such shortages.

If we are not able to hire and retain skilled employees, we may not be able to develop and manufacture
products, or meet demand for our products, in a timely fashion.

We depend on skilled employees, such as software and hardware engineers, quality assurance engineers,
chemists, chemical engineers, and other technical professionals with specialized skills. We are headquartered in
the Silicon Valley and have research and development employees in facilities in 15 U.S. locations. We also have
research and development employees in facilities in India, Europe, Israel, the U.K., Brazil, Canada, New
Zealand, China, Australia, and Japan. Competition has historically been intense among companies hiring
engineering and technical professionals. In times of professional labor imbalances, it has in the past and is likely
in the future, to be difficult to locate and hire qualified engineers and technical professionals and to retain these
employees. There are many technology companies located near our corporate offices in the Silicon Valley and
our operations in India that may attempt to hire our employees.

Our VUTEk printers are manufactured at our Meredith, New Hampshire facility, which is not located in a major
metropolitan area. We have encountered difficulties in hiring and retaining adequately skilled labor and
management at this location. We have entered into a six-year lease with Bank of Tokyo—Mitsubishi UFJ
Leasing & Finance LLC (“BTMU”) whereby a 225,000 square foot manufacturing and warehouse facility is
under construction in Manchester, New Hampshire, related to our super-wide and wide format industrial digital
inkjet printer business in the Industrial Inkjet operating segment, which is scheduled to be completed in early
2018.

28

The movement of our stock price may also impact our ability to hire and retain employees. If we do not offer
competitive compensation, we may not be able to recruit or retain employees, which may have an adverse effect
on our ability to develop products in a timely fashion, which could harm our business, financial condition, and
operating results.

We rely on our distribution channels to ensure sales growth.

The leading printer manufacturers, which comprise the majority of the customer base in our Fiery operating
segment, are typically large profitable customers with little credit risk to us. Our Productivity Software and
Industrial Inkjet operating segments sell primarily through a direct sales force, augmented by some select
distributors, to a broader base of customers than Fiery. Any interruption of of these distribution channels could
negatively impact us in the future.

Growing market share in the Productivity Software and Industrial Inkjet operating segments increases the
possibility that we will experience increased bad debt expense and increased accounts receivable.

Many of the Productivity Software and Industrial Inkjet customers are smaller and potentially less creditworthy.
Our ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet customer base is primarily located in geographic regions, which have
recently been subject to economic challenges including southern Europe (primarily Spain, Italy, and Portugal)
and emerging markets in APAC. Furthermore, if we increase the percentage of Productivity Software and
Industrial Inkjet products that are sold internationally, it may be challenging to enforce our legal rights should
collection issues arise. Due to these and other factors, growing Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software market
share may cause us to experience an increase in bad debt expense and an increase in days sales outstanding
(“DSOs”).

DSOs increased during the year ended December 31, 2016, compared with December 31, 2015, primarily due to
increased Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software revenue as a percentage of consolidated revenue, sales with
extended payment terms, and a non-linear sales cycle resulting in significant billings at the end of the quarter.
Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software were 72% of consolidated revenue during the year ended
December 31, 2016, compared with 66% and 65% of consolidated revenue during the years ended December 31,
2015 and 2014, respectively. We calculate DSO by dividing net accounts receivable at the end of the quarter by
revenue recognized during the quarter, multiplied by the total days in the quarter, which is a measure of the
relationship between sales and accounts receivable.

Acquisitions may result in unanticipated accounting charges or otherwise adversely affect our results of
operations and result in difficulties assimilating and integrating operations, personnel, technologies,
products, and information systems of acquired businesses.

We seek to develop new technologies and products from both internal and external sources. We have also
purchased companies and businesses for the primary purpose of acquiring their customer base. As part of this
effort, we have in the past made, and will likely continue to make, acquisitions of other businesses.

Acquisitions involve numerous risks, such as:

•

•

•

•

•

difficulties integrating operations, employees, technologies, or products, and the required focus of
management attention, time, and effort to accomplish successful integration;

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

possible write-downs of impaired assets;

changes in the fair value of contingent consideration;

possible restructuring of personnel or leased facilities;

29

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

potential loss of key employees of the acquired company;

possible overruns (compared to expectations) relative to the expense levels and cash outflows of the
acquired business;

adverse reactions by customers, suppliers, or parties transacting business with the acquired company or
us;

risk of negatively impacting stock analyst ratings;

potential litigation or any administrative proceedings arising from prior transactions or prior actions of
the acquired company;

inability to protect or secure technology rights;

possible overruns of direct acquisition and integration costs; and

equity securities issued in connection with acquisitions will be dilutive to our existing stockholders
unless mitigating actions are taken such as treasury stock purchases; alternatively, acquisitions made
entirely or partially for cash will reduce cash reserves.

Mergers and acquisitions of companies are inherently risky. We cannot provide assurance that previous or future
acquisitions will be successful or will not harm our business, operating results, financial condition, or stock price.

We face risks relating to the potential impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets.

We complete a review of the carrying value of our goodwill and long-lived assets annually and, based on a
combination of factors (i.e., triggering events), we may be required to perform an interim analysis.

Given the uncertainty of the economic environment and its potential impact on our business, there can be no
assurance that our estimates and assumptions regarding the duration of any economic downturn, or the period or
strength of any subsequent recovery, made for purposes of our goodwill impairment testing at December 31,
2016 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding forecasted revenue or gross
profit rates are not achieved, we may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future
periods relating to any of our reporting units, whether in connection with the next annual impairment testing in
the fourth quarter of 2017 or prior to that, if an interim triggering event were to occur. It is not possible to
determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be
material. No foreshadowing events have occurred as of December 31, 2016.

We are subject to numerous federal, state, and foreign employment laws and may face claims in the future
under such laws.

We are subject to numerous federal, state, and foreign employment laws and from time to time face claims by
our employees and former employees under such laws. There are no material claims pending or threatened
against us under federal, state, or foreign employment laws, but we cannot be sure that material claims under
such laws will not be made in the future against us, nor can we predict the likely impact of any such claims on us,
or that, if asserted, we would be able to successfully resolve any such claims without incurring significant
expense.

We may be unable to adequately protect our proprietary information and may incur expenses to defend
our proprietary information.

We rely on copyright, patent, trademark, and trade secret protection, in addition to nondisclosure agreements,
licensing, and cross-licensing arrangements to establish, maintain, and protect our intellectual property rights, all
of which afford only limited protection. We have patents and pending patent applications in the U.S. and various

30

foreign countries. There can be no assurance that patents will issue from our pending applications or from any
future applications, or that, if issued, any claims allowed will be sufficiently broad to protect our technology.
Any failure to adequately protect our proprietary information could harm our financial condition and operating
results. We cannot be certain that any patents that have been, or may in the future be issued to us, or which we
license from third parties, or any other proprietary rights will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented. In
addition, we cannot be certain that any rights granted to us under any patents, licenses, or other proprietary rights
will provide adequate protection of our proprietary information.

Many countries in which we derive revenue do not have comprehensive and highly developed legal systems,
particularly with respect to the protection of intellectual property rights, which, among other things, can result in
a prevalence of infringing products and counterfeit goods in certain countries, which could harm our business and
reputation.

As different areas of our business change or mature, from time to time we evaluate our patent portfolio and
decide to either pursue or not pursue specific patents and patent applications related to such areas. Choosing not
to pursue certain patents, patentable applications, and failing to file applications for potentially patentable
inventions, may harm our business by, among other things, enabling our competitors to more effectively compete
with us, reducing potential claims we can bring against third parties for patent infringement, and limiting our
potential defenses to intellectual property claims brought by third parties.

Litigation has been, and may continue to be, necessary to defend and enforce our proprietary rights. Such
litigation, whether or not concluded successfully, could involve significant expense and the diversion of our
attention and other resources, which could harm our financial condition and operating results.

We face risks from third party claims of infringement and potential litigation.

Third parties have claimed in the past, and may claim in the future, that our products infringe, or may infringe,
their proprietary rights. Such claims have resulted in lengthy and expensive litigation in the past and could have a
similar result in the future. Such claims and any related litigation, whether or not we are successful in the
litigation, could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources, which could harm our financial
condition and operating results. Although we may seek licenses from third parties covering intellectual property
that we are allegedly infringing, we cannot assure that any such licenses could be obtained on acceptable terms, if
at all.

We may be subject to risk of loss due to fire because certain materials we use in our ink formulation
process are flammable.

We use flammable materials in the digital UV curable and ceramic digital ink formulation process; therefore, we
may be subject to risk of loss resulting from fire. The risk of fire associated with these materials cannot be
completely eliminated. We own certain facilities that manufacture or warehouse our ink, which increases our
exposure to such risk. We maintain insurance policies to cover losses caused by fire, including business
interruption insurance. If one or more of these facilities is damaged or otherwise ceases operations as a result of
fire, it would reduce our digital UV curable and ceramic digital ink manufacturing capacity, which may reduce
revenue and adversely affect our business.

The location and concentration of our facilities subjects us to risk of earthquakes, floods, or other natural
disasters.

Our corporate headquarters, including a significant portion of our research and development facilities, are located
in the San Francisco Bay Area, which is known for seismic activity. This area has also experienced flooding in
the past. Many of the components necessary for our products are purchased from suppliers based in areas that are
subject to risk from natural disasters including the San Francisco Bay Area, China, and Japan.

31

A significant natural disaster, such as an earthquake, flood, tsunami, hurricane, typhoon, or other business
interruptions due, for example, to power shortages and other interruptions could harm our business, financial
condition, and operating results.

We may be subject to environmental-related liabilities due to our use of hazardous materials and solvents.

Our business operations involve the use of certain hazardous materials at eight locations. We formulate UV
curable, reactive dye, and ceramic ink at four locations and store UV curable, ceramic, solvent, and
thermoforming ink, as well as a variety of textile ink including dye sublimation, pigmented, reactive dye, acid
dye, and water-based dispersed printing ink at eight locations. We launched internal formulation and marketing
of ceramic solvent-based ink during 2014 at our facility in Ypsilanti, Michigan. The solvents used in ceramic
digital ink formulation have low volatility by design. As a result, ceramic digital ink poses less environmental
risk compared with true solvent ink. We launched internal formulation of reactive dye ink during 2016 at our
facility in Bedford, U.K. Reactive dye is a water-based dye.

The hazardous materials and solvents that we use are subject to various governmental regulations relating to their
transfer, handling, packaging, use, and disposal. We store ink at warehouses worldwide, including Europe,
China, Israel, the U.K., and the U.S., and shipping companies distribute ink at our direction. We face potential
liability for problems such as large spills or fires that may arise at ink manufacturing locations. While we
customarily obtain insurance coverage typical for this kind of risk, such insurance may not be sufficient. If we
fail to comply with these laws or an accident involving our ink waste or chemicals occurs, or if our insurance
coverage is not sufficient, then our business and financial results could be harmed.

Future sales of our products could be limited if we do not comply with current and future environmental
and chemical content regulations.

We believe that our products are currently compliant with RoHS, WEEE, REACH, and other regulations for the
European Union as well as with China RoHS and other applicable international, U.S., state, and local
environmental regulations. We monitor environmental compliance regulations to ensure that our products are
fully compliant prior to the implementation of any potential new requirements. However, new unforeseen
legislation could require us to re-engineer our products, complete costly analyses, or perform supplier surveys,
which could harm our business and negatively impact our financial results. We could also incur additional costs,
sanctions, and liabilities in connection with non-compliant product recalls, regulatory fines, and exclusion of
non-compliant products from certain markets.

Our products may contain defects, which are not discovered until after shipping, which could subject us to
warranty claims in excess of our warranty reserves.

Our products consist of hardware and software developed by ourselves and others, which may contain undetected
defects. We have in the past discovered software and hardware defects in certain of our products after their
introduction, resulting in warranty expense and other expenses incurred in connection with rectifying such
defects or, in certain circumstances, replacing the defective product, which may damage our relationships with
our customers. Defects could be found in new versions of our products after commencement of commercial
shipment and any such defects could result in a loss or delay in market acceptance of such products and thus
harm our reputation and revenue. Defects in our products (including defects in licensed third party software)
detected prior to new product releases could result in delays in the introduction of new products and the
incurrence of additional expense, which could harm our operating results. We generally provide a twelve-month
hardware limited warranty for certain Industrial Inkjet printers, which may cover both parts and labor. Our Fiery
DFE limited warranty is 12 to 15 months.

Our standard warranties contain limits on damages and exclusions, including but not limited to alteration,
modification, misuse, mishandling, and storage or operation in improper environments. While we recorded an

32

accrual of $10.3 million at December 31, 2016, for estimated warranty costs that are estimable and probable,
based on historical experience, we may incur additional costs of revenue and operating expenses if our warranty
provision does not reflect adequately the cost to resolve or repair defects in our products or if our liability
limitations are declared enforceable, which could harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Actual or perceived security vulnerabilities in our products could adversely affect our revenue.

Maintaining the security of our software and hardware products is an issue of critical importance to our
customers and for us. There are individuals and groups who develop and deploy viruses, worms, and other
malicious software programs that could attack our products. Although we take preventive measures to protect our
products, and we have a response team that is notified of high risk malicious events, these procedures may not be
sufficient to mitigate damage to our products. Actual or perceived security vulnerabilities in our products could
lead some customers to seek to return products, reduce or delay future purchases, or purchase competitive
products. Customers may also increase their expenditures to protect their computer systems from attack, which
could delay or reduce purchases of our products. Any of these actions or responses by customers could adversely
affect our revenue.

System failures, or system unavailability, could harm our business.

We rely on our network infrastructure, internal technology systems, and internal and external websites for our
development, marketing, operational, support, and sales activities. Our hardware and software systems related to
such activities are subject to damage from malicious code released into the internet through vulnerabilities in
popular software programs. These systems are also subject to acts of vandalism and potential disruption by
actions or inactions of third parties. Any event that causes failures or interruption in our hardware or software
systems could harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Our stock price has been volatile historically and may continue to be volatile.

The market price for our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile. During the twelve months
ended December 31, 2016, the price of our common stock as reported on The NASDAQ Global Select Market
ranged from a low of $35.88 to a high of $50.09. We expect our stock price to be subject to fluctuations as a
result of a variety of factors, including factors beyond our control. These factors include:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly or annual operating results;

ability to initiate or complete stock repurchase programs;

announcements of technological innovations or new products or services by our competitors or by us;

announcements relating to strategic relationships, acquisitions, or investments;

announcements by our customers regarding their businesses or the products in which our products are
included;

changes in financial estimates or other statements by securities analysts;

any failure to meet security analyst expectations;

changes in the securities analysts’ rating of our securities;

terrorist attacks and the affects of military engagements or natural disasters;

commencement of litigation or adverse results of pending litigation;

changes in the financial performance and/or market valuations of other software and high technology
companies; and

changes in general economic conditions.

Because of this volatility, we may fail to meet the expectations of our stockholders or of securities analysts from
time to time and the trading price of our securities could decline as a result. The stock market has experienced
significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the trading prices of equity securities of
many high technology companies, impacted by the continuing uncertainty in our economy. These fluctuations
have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. Any negative
change in the public’s perception of high technology companies could depress our stock price regardless of our
operating results.

The value of our investment portfolio is subject to interest rate volatility.

We maintain an investment portfolio of fixed income debt securities classified as available-for-sale securities. As
a result, our investment portfolio is subject to counterparty risk and volatility if market interest rates fluctuate.

We attempt to limit our exposure to interest rate risk by investing in securities with maturities of less than three
years; however, we may be unable to successfully limit our risk to interest rate fluctuations. This may cause
volatility in our investment portfolio value.

We are partially self-insured for certain losses related to employee medical and dental coverage. Our self-
insurance reserves may not be adequate to cover our medical and dental claim liabilities.

We are partially self-insured for certain losses related to employee medical and dental coverage, excluding
employees covered by health maintenance organizations. We generally have an individual stop loss deductible of
$125 thousand per enrollee unless specific exposures are separately insured. We have accrued a contingent
liability of $1.5 million as of December 31, 2016, which is not discounted, based upon examination of historical
trends, historical actuarial analysis, our claims experience, total plan enrollment (including employee
contributions), population demographics, and other various estimates. Although we do not expect that we will
ultimately pay claims significantly different from our estimates, self-insurance reserves, net income, and cash
flows could be materially affected if future claims differ significantly from our historical trends and assumptions.

Our stock repurchase program could affect our stock price and add volatility.

In November 2015, our board of directors authorized $150 million for the repurchase of our outstanding common
stock. This authorization expires December 31, 2018.

Any repurchases pursuant to our stock repurchase program could affect our stock price and add volatility. There
can be no assurance that repurchases will be made at the best possible price. Potential risks and uncertainties also
include, but are not necessarily limited to, the amount and timing of future stock repurchases and the origin of
funds used for such repurchases. The existence of a stock repurchase program could also cause our stock price to
be higher than it would be in the absence of such a program and could potentially reduce the market liquidity for
our stock. Depending on market conditions and other factors, these repurchases may be commenced or suspended
from time to time. Any such suspension could cause the market price of our stock to decline.

Our profitability may be affected by unanticipated changes in our tax provisions, the adoption of new U.S.
or foreign tax legislation, or exposure to additional income tax liabilities.

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and many foreign countries. Intercompany transaction pricing can
impact our tax liabilities. We are potentially subject to tax audits in various countries and tax authorities may
disagree with our tax treatments, including intercompany pricing or other matters, and assess additional taxes.
We regularly review the likely outcomes of these audits to determine whether our tax provisions are sufficient.
However, there can be no assurance that we will accurately predict the outcomes of these audits, and the final
assessments of these audits can have a material impact on our net income.

34

Our effective tax rate in the future may be impacted by changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing
statutory tax rates, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, changes in tax laws, new
information discovered during the preparation of our tax returns, and enactment of U.S. and foreign tax
legislative initiatives, such as proposals for fundamental tax reform in the United States (“U.S.”) or multi-
jurisdictional actions to address “base erosion and profit-shifting” by multinational companies. The Organisation
for Economic Co-operation and Development, or OECD, issued a series of reports on October 5, 2015
recommending changes to numerous well-established tax principles. These recommendations, if adopted by
various OECD countries in which we do business, could adversely affect our effective tax rate.

We may not have the ability to raise the funds necessary to settle conversions of our 0.75% Convertible
Senior Notes due 2019 (“Notes”) in cash, repay the Notes at maturity, or repurchase the Notes upon a
fundamental change.

In September 2014, we completed a private placement of $345 million principal amount of Notes. Holders of the
Notes will have the right to require us to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes upon the occurrence of a
fundamental change at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased,
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as described in Note 7—Convertible Senior Notes, Note Hedges, and
Warrants of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Upon conversion of the Notes, we will be required to make conversion payments in cash, unless we elect to
deliver solely shares of our common stock to settle such conversion, as described in Note 7—Convertible Senior
Notes, Note Hedges, and Warrants of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Moreover, we will be
required to repay the Notes in cash at their maturity, unless earlier converted or repurchased. However, we may
not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing when the Notes are to be repurchased, converted, or
at their maturity.

The conditional conversion feature of the Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition
and results of operations.

In the event the conditional conversion feature of the Notes is triggered, holders of Notes will be entitled to
convert the Notes at any time during specified periods at their option. If one or more holders elect to convert their
Notes, unless we elect to satisfy our conversion obligation by delivering solely shares of our common stock, we
would be required to settle all or a portion of the conversion obligation through the payment of cash, which could
adversely affect our liquidity. Even if holders do not elect to convert their Notes, we could be required under
applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the Notes as a current
liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital.

The accounting method for convertible debt securities that may be settled in cash (such as the Notes) could
have a material effect on our reported financial results.

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 470-20, Debt with
Conversion and Other Options, requires us to separately account for the liability and equity components of the
Notes that may be settled entirely or partially in cash upon conversion in a manner that reflects our
non-convertible debt interest rate. Accordingly, the equity component of the Notes is included in additional
paid-in capital within stockholders’ equity in our Consolidated Balance Sheet and the value of the equity
component is treated as original issue discount for purposes of accounting for the debt component of the Notes.
As a result, we are required to recognize non-cash interest expense in our Consolidated Statement of Operations
in current and future periods as a result of the amortization of the discounted carrying value of the Notes to their
principal amount over their term. We will report lower net income because ASC 470-20 requires interest to
include both the current period’s amortization of the original issue discount and the Notes’ non-convertible
interest rate. This could adversely affect our future consolidated financial results, the trading price of our
common stock, and the trading price of the Notes.

Under certain circumstances, in calculating earnings per share, convertible debt instruments (such as the Notes)
that may be settled entirely or partially in cash are accounted for utilizing the treasury stock method. The effect
of the treasury stock method is that the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, if any, are
not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share except to the extent that the conversion value of the
Notes exceeds their principal amount. Under the treasury stock method, diluted earnings per share is calculated
as if the number of shares of common stock that would be necessary to settle such excess were issued, if we
elected to settle such excess in shares. We cannot be sure that accounting standards will continue to permit the
use of the treasury stock method in the future. If we are unable to use the treasury stock method in accounting for
the shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes, if any, then our diluted consolidated earnings per share would
be adversely affected.

Certain provisions contained in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our amended and
restated bylaws, and under Delaware law could delay or impair a change in control.

Certain provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws
could have the effect of rendering more difficult or discouraging an acquisition of the Company deemed
undesirable by our board of directors. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation allows the board of
directors to issue preferred stock, which may include powers, preferences, privileges, and other rights superior to
our common stock, thereby limiting our stockholders’ ability to transfer their shares and may affect the price they
are able to obtain. Our amended and restated bylaws do not allow stockholders to call special meetings and
include, among other things, procedures for advance notification of stockholder nominations and proposals,
which may have the effect of delaying or impairing attempts by our stockholders to remove or replace
management, to commence proxy contests, or to effect changes in control or hostile takeovers of the Company.

As a Delaware corporation, we are subject to Delaware law, including Section 203 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, which imposes restrictions on certain transactions between a corporation and certain
significant stockholders. These provisions could also have the effect of delaying or impairing the removal or
replacement of management, proxy contests, or changes in control. Any provision of our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws that has the effect of delaying or impairing a
change in control of the Company could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their
shares of our common stock and could affect the price that certain investors may be willing to pay for our
common stock.

* We entered into a six-year lease with BTMU whereby a 225,000 square foot manufacturing and warehouse facility is under construction
in Manchester, New Hampshire, related to our super-wide and wide format industrial digital inkjet printer business in the Industrial
Inkjet operating segment, which is scheduled to be completed in early 2018.
The lease commenced on August 26, 2016. We leased 16.9 acres of land related to this manufacturing and warehouse lease. See Note
8—Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Includes an additional 65,000 square feet expansion of our ceramic tile decoration industrial digital inkjet printer manufacturing and
warehouse facility in Castellon, Spain, which is scheduled to be completed during 2017. The expansion is being built and fully financed
by the lessor. We do not have any obligations related to this additional space other than rent payments that commence upon completion
of construction.

**

In addition to the facilities listed above, we leased 44 additional domestic and international regional operations
and sales offices, excluding facilities that have been fully reserved and subleased, and we own an additional
international sales office building. We believe that our facilities, in general, are adequate for our present needs.
We do not expect that we would experience difficulties in obtaining additional space at fair market rates, if the
need arose.

Item 3: Legal Proceedings

We may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations, or proceedings relating to
contractual disputes, securities laws, intellectual property rights, employment, or other matters that may arise in
the normal course of business. We assess our potential liability in each of these matters by using the information
available to us. We develop our views on estimated losses in consultation with inside and outside counsel, which
involves a subjective analysis of potential results and various combinations of appropriate litigation and
settlement strategies. We accrue estimated losses from contingencies if a loss is deemed probable and can be
reasonably estimated.

As of December 31, 2016, we are subject to the matter discussed below.

Matan Digital Printing (“MDG”) Matter

EFI acquired Matan Digital Printers (“Matan”) in 2015 from sellers (the “2015 Sellers”) that acquired Matan
Digital Printing Ltd. from other sellers in 2001 (the “2001 Sellers”). The 2001 Sellers have asserted a claim
against the 2015 Sellers and Matan asserting that they are entitled to a portion of the 2015 Sellers’ proceeds from
EFI’s acquisition. The 2015 Sellers dispute this claim and have agreed to indemnify EFI against the 2001 Sellers’
claim.

Although we are fully indemnified and we do not believe that it is probable that we will incur a loss, it is
reasonably possible that our financial statements could be materially affected by the unfavorable resolution of
this matter. Accordingly, it is reasonably possible that we could incur a material loss in this matter. We estimate
the range of loss to be between one dollar and $10.1 million. If we incur a loss in this matter, it will be offset by a
receivable of an equal amount representing a claim for indemnification against the escrow account established in
connection with the Matan acquisition.

Other Matters

As of December 31, 2016, we were subject to various other claims, lawsuits, investigations, and proceedings in
addition to the matter discussed above. There is at least a reasonable possibility that additional losses may be
incurred in excess of the amounts that we have accrued. However, we believe that these claims are not material to
our financial statements or the range of reasonably possible losses is not reasonably estimable. Litigation is
inherently unpredictable, and while we believe that we have valid defenses with respect to legal matters pending
against us, our financial statements could be materially affected in any particular period by the unfavorable
resolution of one or more of these contingencies or because of the diversion of management’s attention and the
incurrence of significant expenses.

As of January 26, 2017, there were 110 stockholders of record, excluding a substantially greater number of
“street name” holders or beneficial holders of our common stock, whose shares are held of record by banks,
brokers, and other financial institutions.

We did not declare or pay cash dividends on our common stock in either 2016 or 2015. We currently anticipate
that we will retain all available funds for the operation of our business and do not plan to pay any cash dividends
in the foreseeable future. We believe that the most strategic uses of our cash resources include business
acquisitions, strategic investments to gain access to new technologies, repurchases of shares of our common
stock, and working capital.

In November 2015, our board of directors authorized $150 million for the repurchase of our outstanding
common stock commencing January 1, 2016. This authorization expires December 31, 2018. Under this
publicly announced plan, we repurchased 1.8 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of $74.2 million
during the year ended December 31, 2016.
Includes 0.2 million shares purchased from employees to satisfy the exercise price of certain stock options
and any tax withholding obligations incurred in connection with such exercises and minimum tax
withholding obligations that arose on the vesting of restricted stock units (“RSUs”).

Sales of Unregistered Securities

On October 6, 2015, we issued 0.2 million shares of common stock to the shareholders of CTI in connection with
the acquisition of CTI. The shares of common stock were offered and sold in accordance with the terms and

39

subject to the conditions set forth in the purchase agreement for the acquisition in reliance on the private offering
exemption of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

On July 1, 2015, the Company and a subsidiary and the shareholders (the “Sellers”) of Reggiani entered into a
Securities Purchase Agreement relating to the acquisition of the equity securities of Reggiani. During the three
months ended March 31, 2016, in connection with the release from escrow of certain funds, the Company issued
29,589 shares of its Common Stock to the Sellers. Each Seller has previously agreed that, prior to the end of the
eighteen-month period following the closing of the Reggiani acquisition, such Seller will not, directly or
indirectly, (a) offer, sell, offer to sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose
of or transfer (or announce any offer, sale, offer of sale, contract of sale or grant of any option to purchase or
other disposition or transfer of) any shares of Common Stock; provided that, after the end of the six-month
period following the closing, each Seller is permitted, subject to certain restrictions, to transfer shares of
Common Stock to a permitted transferee of such Seller, or (b) other than as permitted in clause (a) above, reduce
its beneficial ownership of, interest in, or risk relating to, any of such Seller’s shares of Common Stock.

The shares of Common Stock were offered and sold in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement and in reliance on the private offering exemption of Section
4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the private offering safe harbor
provisions of Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act and/or the safe harbor provisions of Regulation
S under the Securities Act based on the following factors: (i) the absence of general solicitation; (ii) the
investment representations obtained from the Sellers, including with respect to the sophistication and status as an
accredited investor or non-U.S. person; (iii) the provision of appropriate disclosures related to the Sellers’
investment decision; and (iv) the placement of restrictive legends on the certificates reflecting the securities.

resulting from the release of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the expiration of U.S. federal,
state, and foreign statutes of limitations.

Tax benefit of $3.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2014 resulting from the increased
valuation of intangible assets for Brazilian tax reporting.

Tax provision of $19.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2013 to establish a valuation
allowance related to the realization of tax benefits from existing California deferred tax assets.

Tax benefit of $3.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, resulting from the renewal of the
U.S. federal research and development tax credit on January 2, 2013, retroactive to 2012, pursuant to
the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012. ASC 740-10-45-15, Income Taxes, requires the effects of a

In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03, Simplifying the
Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which became effective in the first quarter of 2016. ASU 2015-03
requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a
direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt, which is consistent with the presentation of debt
discounts and premiums. Retrospective application is required, which resulted in the reclassification of $5.8
and $7.1 million of debt issuance costs from other current assets and other assets to a direct reduction of our
0.75% Convertible Senior Notes, net, due 2019 (“Notes”) in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of
December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

(5) ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, issued in November 2015 and effective in

the first quarter of 2016, removes the requirement to classify the current and noncurrent amounts of deferred
income tax assets and liabilities and requires noncurrent classification. Under prior guidance, the current and
noncurrent classification of deferred income tax assets and liabilities was generally determined by reference
to the classification of the related asset or liability unless there is no associated asset or liability that will
cause the temporary timing difference to reverse. In that situation, the expected reversal date of the timing
difference is used for classification purposes. We have elected to apply this guidance retrospectively to all
prior periods to maintain the comparability of presentation between periods. We elected to early adopt this
standard in 2015, which retroactively reduced working capital by $17.1, $20.9, and $53.8 million as of
December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

(6)

In September 2014, we completed a private placement of $345 million principal amount of 0.75%
Convertible Senior Notes due 2019 (“Notes”). Holders of the Notes will have the right to require us to
repurchase all or a portion of their Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change at a repurchase price
equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, as described in Note 7—Convertible Senior Notes, Note Hedges, and Warrants of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

(7) On November 1, 2012, we sold the 294,000 square foot building located in Foster City, California, which at
that time served as our corporate headquarters, along with approximately four acres of land and certain other
assets related to the property, for $179.7 million. We used the facility until October 31, 2013, while
searching for a new facility, building it out, and relocating our corporate headquarters, for which period rent
was not required to be paid. Because we vacated the facility on October 31, 2013, we have no continuing
involvement with the property and have accounted for the transaction as a property sale during the fourth
quarter of 2013, thereby recognizing a gain of approximately $117.2 million on the sale of the property.

assume any obligation to update the forward-looking statements provided to reflect events that occur or
circumstances that exist after the date on which they were made.

Overview

Key financial results for the year ended December 31, 2016 were as follows:

•

•

•

•

•

Our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared with the prior year reflect
revenue growth, gross profit improvement, comparable operating expenses as a percentage of revenue,
increased interest expense related to our Notes, and increased investment income resulting from
increased interest rates. We completed our acquisitions of Rialco and Optitex in 2016. Post-acquisition
revenue was $19.8 million in 2016 related to these two acquisitions. We completed our acquisitions of
Reggiani, Matan, CTI, and Shuttleworth in 2015. Post-acquisition revenue was $88.4 million in 2015
related to these four acquisitions. We completed our acquisitions of DIMS, DirectSmile, Rhapso, and
SmartLinc in 2014. Their results are included in our results of operations commencing on their
respective acquisition dates.

Our consolidated revenue increased by 12%, or $109.5 million, to $992.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2016 from $882.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. Industrial Inkjet and
Productivity Software revenue increased by $114.9 and $16.4 million, respectively, partially offset by
decreased Fiery revenue of $21.7 million in 2016 compared with 2015. Recurring ink and maintenance
revenue increased by 21% during the year ended December 31, 2016 compared with the same period in
the prior year and represented 31% of consolidated revenue.

Our gross profit percentage decreased to 51% during the year ended December 31, 2016, from 52%
during the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily due to increased Industrial Inkjet revenue at a
lower gross profit percentage (35%) compared with Productivity Software (75%) and Fiery (71%). The
gross profit percentages increased in each of our operating segments compared with the same periods
in the prior year.

Operating expenses increased by $49.4 million to $452.1 million during the year ended December 31,
2016, from $402.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2015, but was comparable as a
percentage of revenue at 46% to the year ended December 31, 2015. The increase in operating
expenses was primarily due to head count increases related to our business acquisitions, prototype and
non-recurring engineering expenses related to future product launches, trade show and marketing
program expenses, amortization of intangible assets, increased expenses related to litigation and
uncollectible accounts, restructuring and other charges, and increased fair value of contingent
consideration.

Interest expense increased by $0.3 million, to $17.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 from
$17.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 primarily due to interest accretion on our Notes.

44

•

Interest income and other income (expense), net, was a gain of $0.5 million during the year ended
December 31, 2016, compared with a loss of $1.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2015,
primarily because the foreign exchange loss decreased by $0.4 million resulting primarily from
revaluation of foreign currency denominated net assets (mainly denominated in Euros and British
pounds sterling, and Chinese renminbi), and investment income increased by $1.7 million due to
increased interest rates.

• We recorded a tax benefit of $6.2 million in 2016 on pre-tax income of $39.4 million compared to a tax

provision of $4.0 million in 2015 on pre-tax income of $37.5 million. We recognized $16.6 million of
previously unrecognized tax benefits in 2016 as compared to $7.4 million in 2015.

45

to be hosted in the cloud. The Productivity Suite addresses all segments of the print industry and consists of the:
(i) Packaging Suite, with Radius at its core, for tag & label, cartons, and flexible packaging businesses;
(ii) Corrugated Packaging Suite, with CTI at its core, for corrugated packaging businesses; (iii) Enterprise
Commercial Print Suite, with Monarch at its core, for enterprise print businesses; (iv) Publication Print Suite,
with Monarch or Technique at its core, for publication print businesses; (v) Mid-market Print Suite, with Pace at
its core, for medium size print businesses; (vi) Quick Print Suite, with PrintSmith at its core, for small printers
and in-plant sites; and (vii) Value Added Products, available with the suite and standalone, such as web-to-print,
e-commerce, cross media marketing, warehousing, fulfillment, shop floor data collection, and shipping to reduce
costs, increase profits, and offer new products and services to their existing and future customers. We also market
Optitex fashion CAD software, which facilitates fast fashion and increased efficiency in the fashion and textile
industries.

Fiery, which consists of DFEs that transform digital copiers and printers into high performance networked
printing devices for the office, industrial, and commercial printing markets. This operating segment is comprised
of (i) stand-alone DFEs connected to digital printers, copiers, and other peripheral devices, (ii) embedded DFEs
and design-licensed solutions used in digital copiers and multi-functional devices, (iii) optional software
integrated into our DFE solutions such as Fiery Central and Graphics Arts Package, (iv) Fiery Self Serve, our
self-service and payment solution, (v) PrintMe, our mobile printing application, and (vi) stand-alone software-
based solutions such as our proofing and scanning solutions.

Ex-Currency. To better understand trends in our business, we believe it is helpful to adjust our statement of
operations to exclude the impact of year-over-year changes in the translation of foreign currencies into U.S.
dollars. This is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated by adjusting revenue, gross profit, and operating expenses
by using historical exchange rates in effect during the comparable prior period and removing the balance sheet
currency remeasurement impact from interest income and other income (expense), net, including removal of any
hedging gains and losses. We refer to these adjustments as “ex-currency.” The year-over-year currency impact
can be determined as the difference between year-over-year actual growth rates and year-over-year ex-currency
growth rates.

Management believes the ex-currency measures provide investors with an additional perspective on year-over-
year financial trends and enables investors to analyze our operating results in the same way management does. A
reconciliation of the ex-currency adjustments to GAAP results for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015
and an explanation of how management uses non-GAAP financial information to evaluate its business, the
substance behind management’s decision to use this non-GAAP financial information, the material limitations
associated with the use of non-GAAP financial information, the manner in which management compensates for
those limitations, and the substantive reasons management believes that this non-GAAP financial information
provides useful information to investors is included under “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below.

Please refer to the section entitled “Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Information” for these non-GAAP measures
a reconciliation of these measures to the most comparable GAAP measures.

Overview

Revenue was $992.1, $882.5, and $790.4, million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014,
respectively, resulting in a 12% increase (14% ex-currency) in 2016 compared with 2015 and a 12% increase
(17% ex-currency) in 2015 compared with 2014.

The $109.5 million increase in 2016 compared with 2015 was primarily due to increased Reggiani textile, Matan
super-wide format, and Cretaprint ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printer revenue, increased ink revenue,
and post-acquisition Rialco revenue in the Industrial Inkjet operating segment and post-acquisition Optitex, CTI,
and Shuttleworth revenue in the Productivity Software operating segment, partially offset by decreased Fiery
revenue.

The $92.1 million increase in 2015 was primarily driven by the post-acquisition performance of Reggiani and
Matan in our Industrial Inkjet operating segment, our acquisition strategy in the Productivity Software operating
segment, and product launches by the leading printer manufacturers in the Fiery operating segment.

Industrial Inkjet

Industrial Inkjet revenue increased by $114.9 million, or 26% in 2016 compared with 2015 (27% ex-currency).
Industrial Inkjet revenue is benefiting from the ongoing analog to digital technology and solvent to UV curable
ink migration primarily due to:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

the complementary impact of the Industrial Inkjet business acquisitions,

increased revenue resulted from a full year of Reggiani textile and Matan super-wide format industrial
digital inkjet printer revenue in 2016 compared with six months in 2015,

post-acquisition Rialco ink products revenue,

the FabriVu 180/340 soft signage super wide-format roll-to-roll digital inkjet graphics printer
manufactured in our Reggiani facility,

increased revenue from the C4 ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printer, the launch of the M4
ceramic digital inkjet printer that can use a variety of print heads,

increased ceramic ink revenue as our internally formulated ceramic ink gains market share, and

increased UV and LED curable ink revenue as a result of the high utilization that our UV printers are
experiencing in the field,

partially offset by decreased solvent printer installed base demand measured by solvent ink usage.

Industrial Inkjet revenue increased by $68.5 million, or 18% in 2015 compared with 2014 (27% ex-currency).

Productivity Software

Productivity Software revenue increased by $16.4 million, or 12%, in 2016 compared with 2015 (14%
ex-currency), primarily due to post-acquisition Optitex revenue, a full year of CTI and Shuttleworth revenue in
2016 compared with three and two months, respectively, in 2015; increased license revenue; and annual price
increases related to our maintenance contracts.

Productivity Software revenue increased by $4.6 million, or 4%, in 2015 compared with 2014 (9% ex-currency),
primarily due to increased license revenue from our 2015 acquisitions of CTI and Shuttleworth and professional
services and recurring maintenance revenue primarily resulting from our 2014 acquisition of DIMS and
DirectSmile. We also implemented annual price increases, which marginally increased revenue.

Fiery

Fiery revenue decreased by $21.7 million, or 7%, in 2016 compared with 2015 (also 7% ex-currency). Although
end customer and reseller preference for Fiery products drives demand, most Fiery revenue relies on printer
manufacturers to integrate Fiery technology into the design and development of their print engines. Fiery revenue
decreased primarily due to

•

•

•

reduced end user demand associated with the Drupa trade show in June 2016, which occurs every four
years, caused by end users delaying purchasing decisions until new printer models are available,

one significant printer manufacturer purchasing less inventory, and

weak APAC demand.

Fiery revenue increased by $18.9 million, or 7%, in 2015 compared with 2014 (also 7% ex-currency). Fiery
revenue increased primarily due to:

•

•

•

consistent product launches by these printer manufacturers with increased speed, quality, and
versatility have made the DFE a more significant consideration for the customer resulting in increased
stand-alone Fiery DFE revenue,

the release of the Fiery FS200 Pro DFE incorporating higher speed processing, expanded color
offerings, shop automation, and connectivity, and

integration of Fiery DFEs with certain Productivity Software products.

Revenue by Geographic Area

Shipments to some of our significant printer manufacturer customers are made to centralized purchasing and
manufacturing locations, which in turn ship to other locations, making it difficult to obtain accurate geographical
shipment data. Accordingly, we believe that export sales of our products into each region may differ from what is
reported.

Overview

Our consolidated revenue increase of $109.5 million, or 12% in 2016 compared with 2015 (14% ex-currency),
resulted from increased revenue in the Americas, EMEA, and APAC. Our consolidated revenue increase of
$92.1 million, or 12% in 2015 compared with 2014 (17% ex-currency), resulted from increased revenue in the
Americas, EMEA, and APAC.

Americas

Americas revenue increased by $26.8 million, or 6%, in 2016 compared with 2015 (also 6% ex-currency)
resulting from increased UV and LED curable ink revenue; increased Reggiani textile, Vutek and Matan super-
wide format, label and packaging, and ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printer revenue; and increased
Productivity Software revenue; partially offset by decreased Fiery revenue. Increased Productivity Software
revenue resulted primarily from our 2016 acquisition of Optitex; our 2015 acquisition of CTI, and increased
Radius and Metrics license revenue. Fiery revenue decreased primarily due to reduced end user demand
associated with the Drupa trade show in June 2016, which occurs every four years, caused by end users delaying
purchasing decisions until new printer models are available and one significant printer manufacturer purchasing
less inventory.

Americas revenue increased by $35.2 million, or 8%, in 2015 compared with 2014 (9% ex-currency) resulting
from increased revenue in all three of our operating segments resulting from increased UV and LED curable ink
revenue, incremental revenue from Reggiani industrial digital inkjet textile printers and Matan industrial digital
inkjet super-wide format printers, Fiery revenue, professional services revenue resulting from progress on major
development projects, and increased license revenue from our 2015 acquisition of CTI.

EMEA

EMEA revenue increased by $69.2 million, or 24%, in 2016 compared with 2015 (26% ex-currency) primarily
due to increased Reggiani textile, Matan super-wide format, and ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printer
revenue; post-acquisition revenue from our 2016 acquisitions of Rialco and Optitex; revenue from our 2015
acquisition of Shuttleworth; and increased Pace license revenue; partially offset by decreased Fiery revenue due
to reduced end user demand associated with the Drupa trade show in June 2016, which occurs every four years,
caused by end users delaying purchasing decisions until new printer models are available and one significant
printer manufacturer purchasing less inventory.

EMEA revenue increased by $46.6 million, or 19%, in 2015 compared with 2014 (32% ex-currency) primarily
due to increased Fiery and Industrial Inkjet revenue. The increase in Industrial Inkjet revenue is primarily due to
sales of Reggiani industrial digital inkjet textile printers, Matan industrial digital inkjet super-wide format
printers, and increased Fiery revenue.

49

APAC

APAC revenue increased by $13.5 million, or 11%, in 2016 compared with 2015 (13% ex-currency) primarily
due to increased Matan super-wide format, ceramic tile decoration, and Reggiani digital inkjet printer revenue;
and Optitex post-acquisition revenue; partially offset by decreased Fiery revenue primarily due to weak APAC
demand.

APAC revenue increased by $10.4 million, or 10%, in 2015 compared with 2014 (15% ex-currency) primarily
due to increased Industrial Inkjet revenue. We achieved revenue increases in each of our industrial inkjet printers
in this region, including super-wide and wide format, label & packaging, textile, and ceramic tile decoration
digital inkjet printers.

Revenue Concentration

A substantial portion of our revenue over the years has been attributable to sales of products through the leading
printer manufacturers and independent distributor channels. We have a direct relationship with several leading
printer manufacturers and work closely to facilitate integration of Fiery technology into the design and
development of their print engines. The printer manufacturers act as distributors and sell Fiery products to end
customers through reseller channels. End customer and reseller channel preference for the Fiery DFE and
software solutions drive demand for Fiery products through the printer manufacturers.

Although end customer and reseller channel preference for Fiery products drives demand, most Fiery revenue
relies on printer manufacturers to integrate Fiery technology into the design and development of their print
engines. A significant portion of our revenue is, and has been, generated by sales of our Fiery DFE products to a
relatively small number of leading printer manufacturers. However, none of these printer manufacturers
accounted for more than 10% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Our reliance on revenue from the leading printer manufacturers was 28%, 33%, and 33% during 2016, 2015, and
2014, respectively. Over time, we expect our revenue from the leading printer manufacturers to decline. Because
sales of our printer and copier-related products constitute a significant portion of our revenue and there are a
limited number of printer manufacturers producing copiers and printers in sufficient volume to be attractive
customers for us, we expect that we will continue to depend on a relatively small number of printer
manufacturers for a significant portion of our Fiery DFE revenue in future periods. Accordingly, if we lose or
experience reduced sales to one of these printer manufacturer/distributors, we will have difficulty replacing that
revenue with sales to new or existing customers.

Overview

Our gross profit percentage decreased to 51% (52% ex-currency using 2015 exchange rates) during the year
ended December 31, 2016, compared to 52% (also 52% ex-currency using 2014 exchange rates) during the year
ended December 31, 2015, and 54% during the year ended December 31, 2014, primarily due to increased
Industrial Inkjet revenue at a gross profit percentage of 35.5% compared with Productivity Software and Fiery
gross profit percentages of 75.2% and 71.4%, respectively. Industrial Inkjet revenue increased as a percentage of
revenue to 56.7% during the year ended December 31, 2016, from 50.7% and 48.0%, during the years ended
December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Industrial Inkjet Gross Profit

The Industrial Inkjet gross profit percentage increased to 35.5% in 2016 (35.7% ex-currency using 2015
exchange rates) from 34.2% in 2015. Gross profit percentages improved by leveraging efficiencies in our
worldwide digital inkjet printer manufacturing operations, centralizing super wide-format textile digital inkjet
printer production in Italy, transferring production of super wide-format roll-to-roll digital inkjet printers to Israel
to leverage the lower cost platform that Matan provides, reducing warranty expense as a percentage of revenue
due to engineering and quality improvements, and increasing ink revenue as a percentage of consolidated
Industrial Inkjet revenue. Our ink business generates a higher gross profit percentage than other elements of our
Industrial Inkjet operating segment.

The Industrial Inkjet gross profit percentage decreased to 34.2% in 2015 (35.8% ex-currency using 2014
exchange rates) from 38.0% in 2014 primarily due to lower gross margin percentages realized from Reggiani and
the foreign currency impact of international sales of super-wide and wide format industrial digital inkjet printers
for which the cost was denominated in U.S. dollars, partially offset by increased gross margin percentages
realized from the next generation C4 ceramic tile decoration digital inkjet printer, which has experienced
improving margins subsequent to product launch.

Productivity Software Gross Profit

The Productivity Software gross profit percentage increased to 75.2% in 2016 (75.0% ex-currency using 2015
exchange rates) from 73.3% in 2015 primarily due to efficiencies gained through increased revenue on a
relatively fixed cost base, achievement of certain post-acquisition cost synergies, and price increases on annual
maintenance renewal contracts.

The Productivity Software gross profit percentage increased to 73.3% in 2015 (73.2% ex-currency using 2014
exchange rates) from 72.5% in 2014 primarily due to increased professional services revenue at a higher margin,
achievement of certain post-acquisition cost synergies, and price increases on annual maintenance renewal
contracts.

Fiery Gross Profit

The Fiery gross profit percentage increased to 71.4% in 2016 (also 71.4% ex-currency using 2015 exchange
rates) from 70.2% in 2015. The revenue mix between lower margin DFEs and software solutions compared with
higher margin professional services for this margin fluctuation between the periods.

51

The Fiery gross profit percentage increased to 70.2% in 2015 (also 70.2% ex-currency using 2014 exchange
rates) from 69.0% in 2014 primarily due to higher margin professional services revenue and reduced costs related
to DFEs and other products required for newly launched printers by the leading printer manufacturers.

increased expenses related to litigation and uncollectible accounts, partially offset by reduced legal fees.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses include personnel, consulting, travel, research and development facilities,
prototype materials, and non-recurring engineering expenses.

Research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were
$151.2 million, or 15% of revenue, $141.4 million, or 16% of revenue, and $134.7 million, or 17% of revenue,
respectively.

Research and development expenses increased by $9.8 million, or 7%, in 2016 as compared with 2015 (8%
ex-currency). Personnel-related expenses increased by $9.9 million primarily due to head count increases related
to our business acquisitions and variable compensation expense. Prototypes and non-recurring engineering,
consulting, contractor, freight, and related travel expenses decreased by $0.2 million. Stock-based compensation
expense decreased by $0.4 million because actual forfeitures were greater than the previous forfeiture estimate

52

that was used prior to implementation of ASU 2016-09 as more fully explained in Note 1—Basis of Presentation
and Significant Accounting Policies, reduced probability of achieving performance awards, and decreased
Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) participation by employees compared to the prior year. The remaining
increase of $0.5 million is primarily due to facility and information technology expenses related to our research
and development activities.

Research and development expenses increased by $6.6 million, or 5%, in 2015 as compared with 2014 (8%
ex-currency). Personnel-related expenses increased by $3.4 million primarily due to head count increases related
to our business acquisitions and increased variable compensation due to improved profitability. Prototypes and
non-recurring engineering, consulting, contractor, freight, and related travel expenses increased by $2.8 million
primarily due to product development efforts in advance of product launches. Stock-based compensation expense
increased by $0.6 million primarily due to bonus program vesting and increased ESPP expense, which is due to
the appreciating stock price and increased employee participation compared to the prior year.

Research and development head count was 1,209, 1,196, and 1,067 as of December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014,
respectively.

We expect that if the U.S. dollar remains volatile against the Indian rupee, Euro, British pound sterling, Israeli
shekel, Canadian dollar, or Brazilian real, research and development expenses reported in U.S. dollars could
fluctuate, although we hedge our operating expense exposure to the Indian rupee, which partially mitigates this
risk.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses include personnel, trade shows, marketing programs and promotional materials,
sales commissions, travel and entertainment, depreciation, and worldwide sales office expenses.

Sales and marketing expenses for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $169.0 million, or
17% of revenue, $156.3 million, or 18% of revenue, and $147.4 million, or 19% of revenue, respectively.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $12.7 million, or 8%, in 2016 as compared with 2015 (9%
ex-currency). Personnel-related expenses increased by $8.0 million primarily due to head count increases related
to our business acquisitions and increased commissions due to increased revenue. Trade show and marketing
program spending, including consulting, contractor, travel, and freight, increased by $4.8 million primarily due to
the Drupa trade show, which is an international printing trade show that is held every four years.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $9.0 million, or 6%, in 2015 as compared with 2014 (13%
ex-currency). Personnel-related expenses increased by $4.1 million primarily due to head count increases related
to our business acquisitions, partially offset by reduced commissions and variable compensation. Trade show and
marketing program spending, including consulting, contractor, travel, and freight, has increased by $3.6 million.
Stock-based compensation expense increased by $0.5 million primarily due to bonus program vesting and
increased ESPP expense, which is due to the appreciating stock price and increased employee participation
compared to the prior year. The remaining increase of $0.8 million is primarily due to facility and information
technology expenses related to our sales and marketing activities.

Sales and marketing head count was 950, 892, and 762 as of December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively,
including 398, 360, and 304 in customer service head count for each of the years presented.

Over time, our sales and marketing expenses may increase in absolute terms if revenue increases in future
periods as we continue to actively promote our products and introduce new services and products. We expect that
if the U.S. dollar remains volatile against the Euro, British pound sterling, Brazilian real, Israeli shekel,
Australian dollar, and other currencies, sales and marketing expenses reported in U.S. dollars could fluctuate.

53

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of human resources, legal, and finance expenses. General
and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $85.6 million, or 9%
of revenue, $72.8 million, or 8% of revenue, and $66.9 million, or 8% of revenue, respectively.

General and administrative expenses increased by $12.8 million, or 18%, in 2016 as compared with 2015 (19%
ex-currency). Personnel-related expenses increased by $2.6 million primarily due to head count increases related
to our business acquisitions. Acquisition costs decreased by $3.2 million primarily due to lower expenses in 2016
related to the Optitex, Rialco, and anticipated acquisitions compared with acquisition costs related to the
Reggiani, Matan, CTI, and Shuttleworth acquisitions, which closed in 2015. Expenses related to litigation and
uncollectible accounts increased by $2.8 million. Stock-based compensation expense decreased by $1.8 million
because actual forfeitures were greater than the previous forfeiture estimate that was used prior to
implementation of ASU 2016-09 as more fully explained in Note 1—Basis of Presentation and Significant
Accounting Policies, reduced probability of achieving performance awards, and decreased ESPP participation by
employees compared to the prior year. The remaining increase of $3.5 million is primarily due to facilities and
information technology expenses.

The estimated probability of achieving the Rialco, Optitex, Reggiani, DirectSmile, and CTI earnout performance
targets increased during the year ended December 31, 2016, partially offset by a reduced probability of achieving
the DIMS and Shuttleworth earnout performance targets, resulting in an increase in the associated liability and
general and administrative expense of $6.8 million, including earnout interest accretion. A similar change in the
estimated probability or actual achievement of several earnout performance targets during the year ended
December 31, 2015 resulted in a reduction of the associated liability and general and administrative expense of
$2.1 million in the prior year, net of earnout interest accretion.

General and administrative expenses increased by $5.9 million, or 9%, in 2015 as compared with 2014 (14%
ex-currency). Personnel-related expenses increased by $0.8 million primarily due to head count increases related
to our business acquisitions. Acquisition costs increased by $4.0 million primarily related to the acquisitions of
Reggiani, Matan, Shuttleworth, and CTI. Expenses related to litigation and uncollectible accounts increased by
$1.4 million. Legal expenses decreased by $1.9 million due to a decrease in significant litigation and settlement
activity from the prior year. Stock-based compensation expense decreased by $3.4 million primarily due to
forfeitures resulting from the resignation of our chief financial officer in January 2015 and decreased bonus
program vesting, partially offset by increased ESPP expense due to our appreciating stock price, increased
employee participation compared to the prior year, and the post-acquisition settlement of pre-acquisition stock
options issued by an acquired business. The remaining increase of $3.3 million is primarily due to facilities and
information technology expenses.

The estimated probability or actual achievement of several earnout performance targets was reduced during the
year ended December 31, 2015, net of earnout interest accretion, resulting in a reduction of the associated
liability and general and administrative expense of $2.1 million, net of earnout interest accretion. A similar
change in the estimated probability or actual achievement of several earnout performance targets during the year
ended December 31, 2014, net of earnout interest accretion, resulted in a reduction of the associated liability and
general and administrative expense of $3.8 million.

We expect that if the U.S. dollar remains volatile against the Euro, British pound sterling, Indian rupee, Israeli
shekel, Brazilian real, or other currencies, general and administrative expenses reported in U.S. dollars could
fluctuate.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $31.8 million,
or 3% of revenue, $34.1 million, or 4% of revenue, and $36.1 million, or 5% of revenue, respectively.

54

We account for stock-based payment awards in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation, which requires
stock-based compensation expense to be recognized based on the fair value of such awards on the date of grant.
We amortize compensation cost on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period, after assessing the probability
of achieving requisite performance criteria with respect to performance-based awards. Stock-based compensation
cost is recognized over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche of the award as though the
award were, in substance, multiple awards. This has the impact of greater stock-based compensation expense
during the initial years of the vesting period.

Stock-based compensation expense decreased by $2.2 million, or 7% in 2016 as compared with 2015 because
forfeitures were greater than the previous forfeiture estimate that was used prior to implementation of ASU
2016-09 as more fully explained in Note 1—Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, prior year
forfeitures resulting from the resignation of our chief financial officer in January 2015, reduced probability of
achieving performance awards, and decreased ESPP participation by employees compared to the prior year.

Stock-based compensation expense decreased by $2.0 million, or 6% in 2015 as compared with 2014 primarily
due to forfeitures resulting from the resignation of our chief financial officer in January 2015 and decreased
bonus program vesting, partially offset by increased ESPP expense due to our appreciating stock price, increased
employee participation compared to the prior year, and the post-acquisition settlement of pre-acquisition stock
options issued by an acquired business.

Amortization of Identified Intangibles

Amortization of identified intangibles for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were
$39.6 million, or 4% of revenue, $26.5 million, or 3% of revenue, and $20.7 million, or 3% of revenue,
respectively.

Amortization of identified intangibles increased by $13.0 million, or 49% in 2016 as compared with 2015
primarily due to intangible amortization of identified intangibles resulting from the Reggiani, Matan, CTI,
Shuttleworth, Rialco, and Optitex acquisitions, partially offset by decreased amortization due to certain
intangible assets from prior year acquisitions becoming fully amortized.

Amortization of identified intangibles increased by $5.8 million, or 28% in 2015 as compared with 2014
primarily due to intangible amortization of identified intangibles resulting from the Reggiani, Matan, CTI, and
Shuttleworth acquisitions, partially offset by decreased amortization due to certain Radius Solutions Incorporated
(“Radius”) and Raster Printers, Inc. (“Raster”) intangible assets becoming fully amortized during 2015.

Restructuring and Other

Restructuring and other costs for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $6.7, $5.7, and
$6.6 million, respectively. Restructuring and other charges include severance costs of $4.1, $3.0, and $3.2 million
related to head count reductions of 128, 99, and 130 for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014,
respectively. Severance costs include severance payments, related employee benefits, retention bonuses,
outplacement fees, and relocation costs.

Facilities relocation and downsizing costs for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $0.5,
$0.9, and $2.0 million, respectively. Facilities restructuring and other costs are primarily related to the relocation
of certain manufacturing and administrative locations to accommodate additional space requirements in 2016 and
2015, and consolidation of our German operations in 2014. Integration expenses for the years ended
December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 of $2.1, $1.8, and $1.4 million, respectively, were required to integrate our
business acquisitions.

55

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 was $17.7, $17.4, and $5.9 million,
respectively.

Interest expense increased by $0.3 million in 2016 compared with 2015 primarily due to increased interest
accretion on our Notes. Interest expense increased by $11.5 million in 2015 compared with 2014 primarily due to
interest expense related to our Notes. Please refer to Note 7—Convertible Senior Notes, Note Hedges, and
Warrants of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the terms and conditions of our Notes.

Interest Income and Other Income (Expense), Net

Interest income and other income (expense), net, includes interest and investment income, gains and losses from
sales of our cash equivalents and short-term investments, and net foreign currency transaction gains and losses.
Interest income and other income (expense), net, for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 was
$0.5, $(1.8), and $(5.5) million, respectively.

Interest income and other income (expense), net, was a gain of $0.5 million in 2016 compared with a loss of
$1.8 million in 2015 primarily due to increased investment income of $1.7 million in 2016 due to increased
interest rates and decreased foreign exchange losses of $0.4 million during 2016 resulting primarily from
revaluation of foreign currency denominated net assets (mainly denominated in Euros, British pounds sterling,
and Chinese renminbi).

Interest income and other income (expense), net, decreased by $3.7 million from a loss of $5.5 million in 2014 to
a loss of $1.8 million in 2015 primarily because the foreign exchange loss decreased by $2.6 million resulting
from revaluation of foreign currency denominated net assets (mainly denominated in Euros, British pounds
sterling, Chinese renminbi, and Brazilian reais), partially offset by hedging gains. Investment income increased
by $1.1 million from $1.4 million in 2014 to $2.5 million in 2015 primarily resulting from increased investments
throughout 2015, which were made possible by the proceeds from the Notes.

Goodwill Assessment

We perform our annual goodwill impairment analysis in the fourth quarter of each year according to the
provisions of ASC 350-20-35, Goodwill—Subsequent Measurement. A two-step impairment test of goodwill is
required, unless the simplified method is elected. In the first step, the fair value of each reporting unit is
compared to its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds carrying value, goodwill is not impaired and further
testing is not required. If the carrying value exceeds fair value, then the second step of the impairment test is
required to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is
calculated by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit, excluding
goodwill, from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in the first step. If the carrying value of the
reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then an impairment loss must be recorded equal to the
difference.

Our goodwill valuation analysis is based on our respective reporting units (Industrial Inkjet, Productivity
Software, and Fiery), which are consistent with our operating segments identified in Note 14—Segment
Information, Geographic Regions, and Major Customers of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We
determined the fair value of our reporting units as of December 31, 2016 by equally weighting the market and
income approaches. Under the market approach, we estimated fair value based on market multiples of revenue or
earnings of comparable companies. Under the income approach, we estimated fair value based on a projected
cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk
inherent in our current business model. Based on our valuation results, we have determined that the fair values of
our Industrial Inkjet, Productivity Software, and Fiery reporting units exceed their carrying values by $575, $444,
and $515 million, respectively, or 151%, 267%, and 533%, respectively.

56

Since fair values were determined using a weighting of the market and income approaches, we reviewed the
sensitivity of the market multiple and discount rate to evaluate the sensitivity of the Industrial Inkjet, Productivity
Software, and Fiery valuations. The impact of a change in the market multiple of 10% results in an increase or
decrease in Industrial Inkjet, Productivity Software, and Fiery fair values of 5.0%. Likewise, the impact of a
change in the discount rate of one percentage point results in an increase in the Industrial Inkjet, Productivity
Software, and Fiery fair values of 12%, 10%, and 8%, respectively, or a decrease of 8%, 7%, and 6%,
respectively. Consequently, we have concluded that no reasonably possible changes would reduce the fair value
of the reporting units to such a level that it would cause a failure in step one of the impairment analysis.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, pretax net income of $39.4 million consisted of U.S. and foreign pretax
net income of $8.3 and $31.1 million, respectively. The pretax net income attributable to U.S. operations
included amortization of identified intangibles of $7.6 million, stock-based compensation of $31.8 million,
restructuring and other costs of $3.8 million, acquisition-related costs of $0.6 million, litigation settlement
expense of $1.0 million, and interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs related to our Notes of
$16.3 million, and the change in fair value of contingent consideration of $0.6 million. The pretax net income
attributable to foreign operations included amortization of identified intangibles of $31.9 million, restructuring
and other costs of $2.9 million, acquisition-related costs of $1.6 million, earnout interest accretion of
$2.7 million, and the change in fair value of contingent consideration of $3.7 million. The exclusion of these
items from net income would result in a U.S. and foreign pretax net income of $70.0 and $73.9 million,
respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2016.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, pretax net income of $37.5 million consisted of U.S. and foreign pretax
net income of $9.3 and $28.2 million, respectively. The pretax net income attributable to U.S. operations
included amortization of identified intangibles of $7.8 million, stock-based compensation of $34.1 million,
restructuring and other costs of $2.4 million, acquisition-related costs of $1.0 million, litigation settlement
expense of $0.6 million, and interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs related to our Notes of
$15.7 million, partially offset by the change in fair value of contingent consideration of $0.2 million. The pretax
net income attributable to foreign operations included amortization of identified intangibles of $18.7 million,
restructuring and other costs of $3.3 million, acquisition-related costs of $4.5 million, and earnout interest
accretion of $1.4 million, partially offset by the change in fair value of contingent consideration of $3.3 million.
The exclusion of these items from net income would result in a U.S. and foreign pretax net income of $70.7 and
$52.8 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2015.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, pretax net income of $42.1 million consisted of U.S. and foreign pretax
net income of $15.1 and $27.0 million, respectively. The pretax net income attributable to U.S. operations
included amortization of identified intangibles of $7.1 million, stock-based compensation of $36.1 million,
restructuring and other costs of $2.2 million, acquisition-related costs of $1.1 million, litigation settlement
expense of $0.9 million, and interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs related to our Notes of
$4.7 million, partially offset by the change in fair value of contingent consideration of $0.4 million. The pretax
net income attributable to foreign operations included amortization of identified intangibles of $13.6 million,

57

restructuring and other costs of $4.4 million, acquisition-related costs of $0.4 million, and earnout interest
accretion of $0.6 million, partially offset by the change in fair value of contingent consideration of $4.1 million.
The exclusion of these items from net income would result in a U.S. and foreign pretax net income of $66.8 and
$41.9 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Provision for (Benefit from) Income Taxes

We recorded a tax benefit of $6.2 million in 2016 on pre-tax income of $39.4 million and tax provisions of $4.0
and $8.4 million on pre-tax income of $37.5 and $42.1 million in 2015, and 2014, respectively.

The provisions for income taxes before significant items were $12.0, $10.3, and $14.7 million for the years ended
December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 respectively. Primary differences between our recorded tax provision rate
and the U.S. statutory rate of 35% include tax benefits related to credits for research and development costs,
lower taxes on permanently reinvested foreign earnings, tax effects of stock-based compensation expense
pursuant to ASC 718-740, Stock Compensation—Income Taxes, and changes in the valuation allowance for
financial reporting purposes.

Our provision for income taxes before significant items is reconciled to our provision for (benefit from) income
taxes for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 as follows (in millions):

During the year ended December 31, 2016, we recognized a $16.6 million tax benefit (including state tax benefit)
from the release of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the expiration of U.S. federal, state, and foreign
statutes of limitations, of which $10.3 million related to the 2012 sale of our Foster City building and land.
During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recognized a $3.1 million tax benefit related to the increased
valuation of intangible assets for Brazilian tax reporting resulting from the merger of our Brazilian subsidiaries.

We earn a significant amount of our operating income outside the U.S., which is permanently reinvested in
foreign jurisdictions. Of the income generated in jurisdictions with tax rates materially lower than the statutory
U.S. tax rate of 35%, most is earned in the Netherlands, Spain, U.K., Italy, and Cayman Islands. In 2016, 2015
and 2014, we realigned the ownership of certain Productivity Software intellectual property to augment
operational synergies and parallel both our worldwide intellectual property ownership and our worldwide supply
chain. Our effective tax rate could fluctuate significantly and be adversely impacted if anticipated earnings in the
Netherlands, Spain, Italy, U.K., and the Cayman Islands are proportionally lower than current projections and
earnings in all other jurisdictions are proportionally higher than current projections.

While we currently do not foresee a need to repatriate the earnings of foreign operations, should we require more
capital in the U.S. than is generated by our U.S. operations, we may elect to repatriate funds held in our foreign
jurisdictions or raise capital in the U.S. through debt or equity issuances. These alternatives could result in higher
effective tax rates, the cash payments of taxes and/or increased interest expense. As of December 31, 2016, we
have permanently reinvested $164.6 million of unremitted foreign earnings. Should these earnings be remitted to
the U.S., the tax on these earnings would be $34.6 million.

58

We assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income by considering
both positive and negative evidence relating to their recoverability. If we believe that recovery of these deferred
tax assets is not more likely than not, we establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we increase a valuation
allowance, we will include an expense within the tax provision in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in
the period in which such determination is made.

Significant judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In
assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we considered all available evidence, including recent operating
results, projections of future taxable income, our ability to utilize loss and credit carryforwards, and the
feasibility of tax planning strategies. A significant piece of objective positive evidence evaluated for jurisdictions
in a net deferred tax asset position was cumulative pre-tax income during the three years ended December 31,
2016. In addition, we considered that loss and credit carryforwards have not expired unused and a majority of our
loss and credit carryforwards will not expire prior to 2022.

As of December 31, 2016, we have determined that it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefit
related to our deferred tax assets, except for a valuation allowance related to the realization of existing California,
Luxembourg, Israel, Netherlands, and Turkey deferred tax assets.

Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement our consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP
measures of net income and earnings per diluted share that are GAAP net income and earnings per diluted share
adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, and gains.

We believe the presentation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share provides
important supplemental information regarding certain costs, expenses, gains, and significant items that we
believe are important to understanding financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results
of operations. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share are among the primary
indicators used by management as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods and by management and
our Board of Directors to determine whether our operating performance has met specified targets and thresholds.
Management uses non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share when evaluating operating
performance because it believes the exclusion of the items described below, for which the amounts and/or timing
may vary significantly depending on our activities and other factors, facilitates comparability of our operating
performance from period to period. We have chosen to provide this information to investors so they can analyze
our operating results in the same way that management does and use this information in their assessment of our
business and the valuation of our Company.

Use and Economic Substance of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We compute non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share by adjusting GAAP net income
and GAAP earnings per diluted share to remove the impact of the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles,
stock-based compensation expense, non-cash settlement of vacation liabilities, restructuring and other expense,
acquisition-related transaction expenses, costs to integrate such acquisitions into our business, changes in the fair
value of contingent consideration including the related foreign exchange fluctuation impact, litigation settlement
charges, and non-cash interest expense related to our Notes. We use a static non-GAAP tax rate of 19%, which
we believe reflects the long-term average tax rate based on our international structure and geographic distribution
of revenue and profit.

Ex-Currency. To better understand trends in our business, we believe it is helpful to adjust our Consolidated
Statements of Operations to exclude the impact of year-over-year changes in the translation of foreign currencies
into U.S. dollars. This is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated by adjusting revenue, gross profit, and operating

59

expenses by using historical exchange rates in effect during the comparable prior period and removing the
balance sheet currency remeasurement impact from interest income and other income (expense), net, including
removal of any hedging gains and losses. We refer to these adjustments as “ex-currency.” Management believes
the ex-currency measures provide investors with an additional perspective on year-over-year financial trends and
enables investors to analyze our operating results in the same way management does. The year-over-year
currency impact can be determined as the difference between year-over-year actual growth rates and year-over-
year ex-currency growth rates.

These excluded items are described below:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

Intangible assets acquired to date are being amortized on a straight-line basis.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized in accordance with ASC 718.

Non-cash settlement of vacation liabilities through the issuance of RSUs, which is not included in the
GAAP presentation of our stock-based compensation expense.

Restructuring and other consists of:

O Restructuring charges incurred as we consolidate the number and size of our facilities and, as a

result, reduce the size of our workforce.

O Expenses incurred to integrate businesses acquired of $2.1, $1.8, and $1.4 million during the years

ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

Acquisition-related transaction costs associated with businesses acquired during the periods reported
and anticipated transactions of $2.2, $5.5, and $1.5 million during the years ended December 31, 2016,
2015, and 2014, respectively.

Changes in fair value of contingent consideration. Our management determined that we should analyze
the total return provided by the investment when evaluating operating results of an acquired entity. The
total return consists of operating profit generated from the acquired entity compared to the purchase
price paid, including the final amounts paid for contingent consideration without considering any post-
acquisition adjustments related to changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration. Because
our management believes the final purchase price paid for the acquisition reflects the accounting value
assigned to both contingent consideration and to the intangible assets, we exclude the GAAP impact of
any adjustments to the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration from the operating
results of an acquisition in subsequent periods, including the related foreign exchange fluctuation
impact. We believe this approach is useful in understanding the long-term return provided by our
acquisitions and that investors benefit from a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that excludes
the impact of this adjustment.

Non-cash interest expense on our Notes. Our Notes may be settled in cash on conversion. We are
required to separately account for the liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the
Notes in a manner that reflects our non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, for GAAP
purposes, we are required to amortize a debt discount equal to the fair value of the conversion option as
interest expense on our $345 million of 0.75% convertible senior notes that were issued in a private
placement in September 2014 over the term of the Notes.

Litigation settlements.

In addition, we settled or accrued reserves related to several unrelated litigation claims in 2016, 2015,
and 2014 in aggregate amounts of $1.0, $0.6, and $0.9 million, respectively.

Tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments. We use a constant non-GAAP tax rate of 19%, which we believe
reflects the long-term average tax rate based on our international structure and geographic distribution
of revenue and profit. The long-term average tax rate is calculated in accordance with the principles of
ASC 740 to estimate the non-GAAP income tax provision in each jurisdiction in which we operate,

60

after excluding the tax effect of the non-GAAP items described above and $10.3 million of previously
unrecognized tax benefits associated with the 2012 sale of our Foster City building and land which we
recognized in the year ended December 31, 2016.

Usefulness of Non-GAAP Financial Information to Investors

These non-GAAP measures, including ex-currency, are not in accordance with or an alternative to GAAP and
may be materially different from other non-GAAP measures, including similarly titled non-GAAP measures,
used by other companies. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered in isolation
from, as a substitute for, or superior to, revenue, gross profit, operating expenses, net income, or earnings per
diluted share prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do
not reflect certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. We expect to
continue to incur expenses of a nature similar to the non-GAAP adjustments described above, and exclusion of
these items from our non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share should not be construed
as an inference that these costs are unusual, infrequent, or non-recurring.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires estimates and judgments that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We
evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, inventory valuation and
purchase commitment reserves, warranty obligations, litigation, restructuring activities, fair value of financial
instruments, stock-based compensation, income taxes, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, business
combinations, build-to-suit leases, and contingencies on an ongoing basis. Estimates are based on historical and
current experience, the impact of the current economic environment, and various other assumptions believed to
be reasonable under the circumstances at the time of the estimate, 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. Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection
with the revenue recognized in any accounting period. Please refer to Note 1—The Company and its Significant
Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a more thorough and complete
description of our revenue recognition accounting policy. For purposes of evaluating and understanding the
judgments required, our revenue recognition policy is summarized below.

Product revenue includes hardware (industrial digital inkjet printers including components placed under
maintenance agreements, ink required for industrial digital inkjet printers, design-licensed solutions including
upgrades, and DFEs), software licensing and development, and royalties. Service revenue includes software
license maintenance agreements, industrial digital inkjet printer maintenance and service, customer support,
training, and consulting. The timing of revenue recognition for each of these categories is discussed below.

We recognize revenue on the sale of printers, ink, and DFEs in accordance with the provisions of SEC Staff
Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104, Revenue Recognition, and when applicable, ASC 605-25, Revenue
Recognition—Multiple-Element Arrangements. We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.
Products generally must be shipped against written purchase orders. We use either a binding purchase order or
signed contract as evidence of an arrangement. Sales to some of the leading printer manufacturers are evidenced
by a master agreement governing the relationship together with a binding purchase order. Sales to our resellers
are also evidenced by binding purchase orders or signed contracts and do not generally contain rights of return or
price protection.

For multiple element arrangements, we allocate revenue to the software deliverables and the non-software
deliverables as a group based on the relative selling prices of all of the deliverables in the arrangement. For
non-software deliverables, we allocate the arrangement consideration based on the relative selling price of the
deliverables using best estimate of the sales price (“BESP”). For software deliverables (including post-contract
customer support, professional services, hosting, and training), we generally use vendor-specific objective
evidence of the fair value of the sales price (“VSOE”), when available. The selling price for each element is
based upon the following hierarchy: VSOE if available, third party evidence (“TPE”) if VSOE is not available, or
BESP if neither VSOE nor TPE are available.

We have established our ability to produce estimates sufficiently dependable to require adoption of the
percentage of completion method with respect to certain fixed price contracts where we provide information
technology system development and implementation services. Revenue on such contracts is recognized over the
contract term based on the percentage of development and implementation services that are provided during the
period compared with the total estimated development and implementation services to be provided over the
entire contract. These services require that we perform significant, extensive, and complex design, development,
modification, or implementation activities of our customers’ systems. Performance will often extend over long
periods, and our right to receive future payment depends on our future performance in accordance with these
agreements.

64

The key estimates and assumptions and corresponding uncertainties for recognizing revenue are summarized as
follows:

Key Estimates and Assumptions

Key Uncertainties

We establish VSOE of selling price using the price
charged for a deliverable when sold separately and
generally evidenced by a substantial majority of
historical stand-alone transactions falling within a
reasonably narrow range. In addition, we consider major
service type, customer type, and other variables in
determining VSOE. Our revenue estimates and
assumptions are based on our ability to assert and
maintain VSOE.

BESP is generally evidenced by a majority of historical
transactions falling within a reasonable price range. We
also consider multiple factors, including, but not limited
to, cost of products, gross margin objectives, historical
pricing practices, customer type, and distribution
channels. Our revenue estimates and assumptions are
based on our ability to maintain consistent BESP.

Distributors and resellers participate in various
marketing and other programs, and we maintain
estimated accruals and allowances for these programs
based on contractual terms and historical experience.

If the arrangement includes a customer-negotiated
refund or right of return relative to the delivered item
and the delivery and performance of the undelivered
item is considered probable and substantially in our
control, the delivered element constitutes a separate unit
of accounting. We limit revenue recognition for
delivered elements to the amount that is not contingent
on the future delivery of products or services, future
performance obligations, or subject to customer-
specified return or refund privileges.

The percentage of completion method involves
recognizing probable and reasonably estimable revenue
using the percentage of services completed based on the
current cumulative cost as a percentage of the estimated
total cost, using a reasonably consistent profit margin
over the period.

As our business and offerings evolve over time,
modifications to our pricing and discounting
methodologies, changes in the scope and nature of
service offerings and/or changes in customer
segmentation may result in a lack of consistency
required to establish and/or maintain VSOE or to
maintain consistent BESP. Additionally,
technological changes resulting in variability in
product costs and gross margins may require changes
to our BESP model. Changes in BESP may result in a
different allocation of revenue to the deliverables in
multiple-element arrangements. These factors, among
others, may adversely impact the amount of revenue
and gross margins we report in a particular period.

If we experience changes in market or competitive
conditions resulting in credits issued to our
distributors and partners deviating significantly from
our estimates, our revenue may be adversely
impacted.

Revenue recognition is dependent on proper
identification of the separate units of accounting in an
arrangement and determining whether they have
stand-alone value. Significant contract interpretation
can be required to determine the appropriate
accounting, including whether the deliverables
specified in a multiple element arrangement should be
treated as separate units of accounting for revenue
recognition purposes, and, if so, how the price should
be allocated among the elements and when to
recognize revenue for each element.

Due to the long-term nature of these projects,
developing the estimates of costs often requires
significant judgment. Factors that must be considered
in estimating the progress of work completed and
ultimate cost of the projects include, but are not
limited to, the availability of labor and labor
productivity, the nature and complexity of the work to
be performed, and the impact of delayed performance.
If changes occur in delivery, productivity, or other
factors used in developing the estimates of costs or
revenue, we revise our cost and revenue estimates,
which may result in increases or decreases in revenue
and costs. Such revisions are reflected in net income
in the period in which the facts that give rise to that
revision become known.

Allowances for doubtful accounts. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure that trade
receivables are not overstated due to uncollectibility. Our accounts receivable balance was $220.8 million, net of
allowance for doubtful accounts and revenue reserves of $23.3 million, as of December 31, 2016. To ensure that
we have established an adequate allowance for doubtful accounts, management analyzes accounts receivable and
historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and
macroeconomic conditions, changes in customer payment terms, the length of time receivables are past due, and
significant one-time events. We record specific reserves for individual accounts when we become aware of
specific customer circumstances, such as bankruptcy filings, deterioration in the customer’s operating results or
financial position, or potential unfavorable outcomes from disputes with customers or vendors.

Inventory valuation. Management estimates potential future inventory obsolescence and noncancellable
purchase commitments to properly value inventory and establish adequate reserves for potential losses on
purchase commitments. Significant management judgment and estimates must be made related to inventory
valuation including the evaluation of current economic trends, changes in customer demand, product design
changes, product life and demand, and the acceptance of our products.

Warranty reserves. Our Industrial Inkjet printer products are generally accompanied by a 12-month limited
warranty, which covers both parts and labor. Our Fiery DFE products are generally accompanied by a 12 to
15-month limited warranty. In accordance with ASC 450-30, Loss Contingencies, an accrual is established when
the warranty liability is estimable and probable based upon historical experience. A provision for estimated
future warranty work is recorded in cost of revenue when revenue is recognized.

The warranty liability is reviewed regularly and periodically adjusted to reflect changes in warranty estimates.
Significant management judgments and estimates must be made in connection with establishing and updating
warranty reserves including estimated potential inventory return rates and replacement or repair costs. Warranty
reserves were $10.3 million as of December 31, 2016.

Litigation accruals. We may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations, or
proceedings relating to contractual disputes, securities laws, intellectual property rights, employment, or other
matters that may arise in the normal course of business. We assess our potential liability in each of these matters
by using the information available to us. We develop our views on estimated losses in consultation with inside
and outside counsel, which involves a subjective analysis of potential results and various combinations of
appropriate litigation and settlement strategies. We accrue estimated losses from contingencies if a loss is
deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated.

The material assumptions used by management to estimate the required litigation accrual include:

•

•

•

•

•

communication with our external attorneys regarding the expected duration of the lawsuit, the potential
outcome of the lawsuit, and the likelihood of settlement;

likelihood of assertion of unasserted claims and assessments;

our strategy regarding the lawsuit;

deductible amounts under our insurance policies; and

past experiences with similar lawsuits.

Litigation is inherently unpredictable, and while we believe that we have valid defenses with respect to legal
matters pending against us, our financial statements could be materially affected in any particular period by the
unfavorable resolution of one or more of these contingencies or because of the diversion of management’s
attention and the incurrence of significant expenses.

Restructuring reserves. We have engaged, and may continue to engage, in restructuring actions, which require
management to utilize significant estimates related to the timing and the expense for severance and other

66

employee separation costs, realizable values of assets made obsolete, lease cancellation, facility downsizing, and
other exit costs. If actual amounts differ from our estimates, the amount of the restructuring charges could be
materially impacted.

Fair value of financial instruments. We invest our excess cash on deposit with major banks in money market,
U.S. Treasury and government-sponsored entity, corporate debt, municipal, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed
residential securities. By policy, we invest primarily in high-grade marketable securities. We are exposed to
credit risk in the event of default by the financial institutions or issuers of these investments to the extent of
amounts recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a
three-tier fair value hierarchy as more fully defined in Note 6—Investments and Fair Value Measurements of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We utilize the market approach to measure fair value of our fixed
income securities. The “market approach” is a valuation technique that uses prices and other relevant information
generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The fair value of our
fixed income securities are obtained using readily-available market prices from a variety of industry standard
data providers, large financial institutions, and other third-party sources for the identical underlying securities.

As part of this process, we engaged pricing services to assist management in its analysis. All estimates, key
assumptions, and forecasts were either provided by or reviewed by us. While we chose to utilize third party
pricing services, the impairment analysis and related valuations represent the conclusions of management and not
the conclusions or statements of any third party.

Specifically, we obtain the fair value of our Level 2 financial instruments from third party asset managers, the
custodian bank, and the accounting service provider. Independently, these service providers use professional
pricing services to gather pricing data, which may include quoted market prices for identical or comparable
instruments or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly.

The validation procedures performed by management include the following:

•

•

•

•

obtaining an understanding of the pricing service’s valuation methodologies, including the timing and
frequency,

evaluating the type, nature, and complexity of our investments in financial instruments,

evaluating the activity level in the market for the type of securities in which we have invested including
the volatility of price movements requiring analysis, and

validating the quoted market prices provided by our service providers by completing a three-way
reconciliation, comparing the assessment of the fair values provided by the asset manager, the custody
bank, and the accounting book of record provider for each portfolio.

Obtaining an understanding of these valuation risks allows us to respond by developing internal controls that
appropriately mitigate any risks identified. If material discrepancies are noted when comparing the valuations on
a security-by-security basis, then we conduct detailed pricing analysis, search alternative pricing sources, or
require the service provider to provide an in-depth price analysis prior to recording the fair value in our financial
statements. If we determine that a price provided by the third party pricing services is not reflective of the fair
value of the security, we require the custodian bank or accounting service provider to update their price file
accordingly.

At least annually, we review the pricing practices followed by the various entities involved in determining the
fair value of our securities; including comparing their process and practices to those followed by other external
third party pricing vendors. Also, at least annually, we review the internal controls provided in place at the
custodian bank and the accounting service provider.

Accounting for stock-based compensation. We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with
ASC 718, which requires stock-based compensation expense to be recognized based on the fair value of such
awards on the date of grant. We amortize stock-based compensation expense on a graded vesting basis over the
vesting period, after assessing the probability of achieving the requisite performance criteria with respect to
performance-based awards. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period for
each separately vesting tranche as though the award were, in substance, multiple awards. Forfeitures have been
estimated at the grant date and revised on a cumulative basis, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual
forfeitures differ from those estimates. We used historical data and future expectations of employee turnover to
estimate forfeitures. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-09, Stock Compensation—Improvements to Employee Share
Based Payment Accounting, in 2016, we elected to account for forfeitures when they occur instead of estimating
the expected forfeiture rate. We must use our judgment in determining and applying the assumptions needed for
the valuation of employee stock options, RSUs, and issuance of common stock under our ESPP.

We use the Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) option pricing model to value stock-based compensation for all
equity awards, except market-based awards. Market-based awards are valued using a Monte Carlo valuation
model. Option pricing models were developed to estimate the value of traded options that have no vesting or
hedging restrictions and are fully transferable. The BSM model determines the fair value of stock-based payment
awards based on the stock price on the date of grant and is affected by assumptions regarding a number of highly
complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, our expected stock price
volatility over the term of the awards, expected term, interest rates, and actual and projected employee stock
option exercise behavior. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our stock over a preceding
period commensurate with the expected term of the option. The expected term is based on management’s
consideration of the historical life, vesting period, and contractual period of the options granted. The risk-free
interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of
grant. Expected dividend yield was not considered in the option pricing formula since we do not pay dividends
and have no current plans to do so in the future.

Accounting for income taxes. Significant management judgment is required to determine our provision for
income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against our deferred
tax assets. We estimate our actual current tax expense, including permanent charges and benefits, and temporary
differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as deferred revenue for tax and book accounting
purposes. These temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our
Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income by considering
both positive and negative evidence relating to their recoverability. If we believe that recovery of these deferred
tax assets is not more likely than not, we establish a valuation allowance. To the extent that we increase a
valuation allowance in a period, we include an expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period
in which such determination is made.

In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we considered all available evidence, including recent operating
results, projections of future taxable income, our ability to utilize loss and credit carryforwards, and the
feasibility of tax planning strategies. A significant piece of objective positive evidence evaluated for jurisdictions
in a net deferred tax asset position was cumulative pre-tax income over the three years ended December 31,
2016. In addition, we considered that loss and credit carryforwards have not expired unused and a majority of our
loss and credit carryforwards will not expire prior to 2022.

As of December 31, 2016, we have determined that it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefit
related to our deferred tax assets, except for a valuation allowance related to the realization of existing California,
Luxembourg, Israel, Netherlands, and Turkey deferred tax assets.

Deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, as of December 31, 2016 were $42.1 million, net of our
valuation allowance of $42.4 million.

68

In accordance with ASC 740-10-25-5 through 17, Income Taxes—Basic Recognition Threshold, we account for
uncertainty in income taxes by recognizing a tax position only when it is more likely than not that the tax
position, based on its technical merits, will be sustained upon ultimate settlement with the applicable tax
authority. The tax benefit to be recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than fifty percent
likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the applicable tax authority that has full knowledge of all
relevant information.

Significant management judgment is required in evaluating our uncertain tax positions. Our gross unrecognized
benefits are $35.9 million as of December 31, 2016. Our evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors
including, but not limited to, changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, effectively settled issues
under audit, and new audit activity. If actual settlements differ from these estimates, or we adjust these estimates
in future periods, we may need to recognize additional tax benefits or charges that could materially impact our
financial position and results of operations.

As of December 31, 2016, we have permanently reinvested $164.6 million of unremitted foreign earnings.
Should these earnings be remitted to the U.S., the tax on these earnings would be $34.6 million.

Valuation analyses of goodwill and intangible assets. We perform our annual goodwill impairment analysis in
the fourth quarter of each year according to the provisions of ASC 350-20-35. A two-step impairment test of
goodwill is required, unless the simplified method is elected. In the first step, the fair value of each reporting unit
is compared to its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds carrying value, goodwill is not impaired and further
testing is not required. If the carrying value exceeds fair value, then the second step of the impairment test is
required to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is
calculated by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit, excluding
goodwill, from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in the first step. If the carrying value of the
reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then an impairment loss must be recorded equal to the
difference.

Our goodwill valuation analysis is based on our respective reporting units (Industrial Inkjet, Productivity
Software, and Fiery), which are consistent with our operating segments identified in Note 14—Segment
Information, Geographic Regions, and Major Customers of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We
determined the fair value of our reporting units as of December 31, 2016 by equally weighting the market and
income approaches. Under the market approach, we estimated fair value based on market multiples of revenue or
earnings of comparable companies. Under the income approach, we estimated fair value based on a projected
cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk
inherent in our current business model.

The key estimates and assumptions and corresponding uncertainties for goodwill impairment analysis are
summarized as follows:

•

•

•

•

identification of comparable companies to benchmark under the market approach giving due
consideration to the following factors:

O financial condition and operating performance of the reporting unit being evaluated relative to

companies operating in the same or similar businesses,

O economic, environmental, and political factors faced by such companies, and

O companies that are considered to be reasonable investment alternatives.

impact of goodwill impairments recognized in prior years,

susceptibility of each of our reporting units to fair value fluctuations,

O weighted average and median control premiums offered in relevant industries,

O industry specific control premiums, and

O specific transaction control premiums.

•

O significant negative industry or economic trends,

O significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period,

O our market capitalization relative to net book value,

O significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets,

O significant changes in the strategy for our overall business, and

O our assessment of growth and profitability in each reporting unit over the coming years.

Given the uncertainty of the economic environment and the potential impact on our business, there can be no
assurance that our estimates and assumptions regarding the duration of the ongoing economic downturn in some
regions, or the period or strength of recovery, made for purposes of our goodwill impairment testing at
December 31, 2016 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding forecasted
revenue or gross profit rates are not achieved, we may be required to record additional goodwill impairment
charges in future periods relating to any of our reporting units, whether in connection with the next annual
impairment testing in the fourth quarter of 2017 or prior to that, if any such change constitutes an interim
triggering event. It is not possible to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does,
whether such charge would be material.

As part of this process, we engaged a third party valuation firm to assist management in its analysis. All
estimates, key assumptions, and forecasts were either provided by or reviewed by us. While we chose to utilize a
third party valuation firm, the impairment analysis and related valuations represent the conclusions of
management and not the conclusions or statements of any third party

Business combinations. We account for business acquisitions as purchase business combinations in accordance
with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all
business combinations. Please refer to Note 1—The Company and its Significant Accounting Policies of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for our accounting policy with respect to accounting for business
combinations.

We allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, including
in-process research & development (“IPR&D”), and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. Such

70

a valuation requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to
intangible assets. The results of operations for each acquisition are included in our financial statements from the
date of acquisition.

The key estimates and assumptions and corresponding uncertainties to account for business acquisitions are
summarized as follows:

Key Estimates and Assumptions

Key Uncertainties

Management estimates fair value based on assumptions
believed to be reasonable. These estimates are based on
historical experience and information obtained from the
management of the acquired companies. Critical
estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include,
but are not limited to: future expected cash flows;
acquired developed technologies and patents; expected
costs to develop IPR&D into commercially viable
products and estimating cash flows from the projects
when completed; the acquired company’s brand
awareness and market position, as well as assumptions
about the period of time the acquired brand will
continue to be used in our product portfolio; and
discount rates.

We estimate fair value of acquisition-related contingent
consideration based on the probability of realization of
the performance targets. This estimate is based on
significant inputs that are not observable in the market,
which ASC 820-10-35 refers to as Level 3 inputs,
reflecting our assessment of the assumptions market
participants would use to value these liabilities. The fair
value of contingent consideration is measured at each
reporting period, with any changes in the fair value
recognized as a component of general and
administrative expense.

Other estimates associated with the accounting for
acquisitions include severance costs and the costs to
vacate or downsize facilities, including the future costs
to operate and eventually abandon or relinquish
duplicate facilities. These costs are recognized as
restructuring and other expenses (i.e., not included in
purchase accounting), are based on management
estimates, and are subject to refinement.

Our financial projections may ultimately prove to be
inaccurate and unanticipated events and
circumstances may occur. As a result, these estimates
are inherently uncertain and unpredictable,
assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and
unanticipated events and circumstances may occur,
which may affect the accuracy or validity of such
assumptions, estimates or other actual results.
Therefore, no assurance can be given that the
underlying assumptions used to establish the
valuation for these acquired businesses will prove to
be correct.

We typically engage a third party valuation firm to
assist management in its analysis. All estimates, key
assumptions, and forecasts were either provided by or
reviewed by us. While we chose to utilize a third
party valuation firm, the valuations represent the
conclusions of management and not the conclusions
or statements of any third party.

Estimated costs may change as additional information
becomes available regarding assets acquired and
liabilities assumed and as management continues its
assessment of the pre-merger operations.

Acquisition-related costs of $2.2, $5.5, and $1.5 million were expensed during the years ended December 31,
2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively, associated with businesses acquired during the periods reported and
anticipated transactions. The significant decrease in acquisition costs incurred during the year ended
December 31, 2016 is primarily due to the Reggiani and Matan acquisitions, which closed on July 1, 2015.

Build-to-Suit leases. If we are deemed to be the accounting owner of a facility in accordance with the
requirements of AC 840-40-55, Leases, then we are required to account for the property as a depreciable asset
and the related lease agreement must be accounted for as an imputed financing obligation. If we are not deemed

71

to be the accounting owner, then we are required to account for the property as an operating lease. Significant
judgments are required to make this determination, which relate to actions, guarantees, and investments that we
make as a lessee that may be considered to be actions that only an owner would take. In addition, our potential
investments in these facilities must comply with the required maximum guarantee test to ensure that potential
investments cannot exceed 90% of the fair value of each facility.

We have four leases subject to these accounting requirements in California, New Hampshire, Spain, and the
Netherlands. ASC 840-40-55, Sale-Leaseback Transactions, applies to “construction projects,” but does not
define this term. The New Hampshire and Spain facilities consist of construction of new facilities. The facilities
in Fremont, California, and the Netherlands were existing facilities, but were not functional in their then current
forms; thus, these assets represented construction projects subject to the guidance. When leasing an existing
facility, we must consider whether the leased asset is fully functional and may be occupied by any lessee in its
current form without requiring improvement (commonly referred to as the “second tenant scope exception”).

On August 26, 2016, we entered into a six-year lease with BTMU whereby a 225,000 square foot manufacturing
and warehouse facility is under construction related to our super-wide format industrial digital inkjet printer
business in the Industrial Inkjet operating segment at a projected cost of $40 million and a construction period of
18 months. Minimum lease payments during the initial term are $1.8 million. Upon completion of the initial
term, we have the option to renew the lease, purchase the facility, or return the facility to BTMU subject to an
89% residual value guarantee under which we would recognize additional rent expense in the form of a variable
rent payment. We have assessed our exposure in relation to the residual value guarantee and believe that there is
no deficiency to the guaranteed value with respect to funds expended by BTMU as of December 31, 2016. We
are not deemed to be the accounting owner of this facility as we do not have responsibility for actions,
guarantees, or investments for which only an owner would accept responsibility.

We are not deemed to be the accounting owner of the leased facilities in the Netherlands or Spain as we only
have responsibility for normal tenant improvement costs in each of these facilities. Similarly, we are not
responsible for actions, guarantees, or investments for which only an owner would accept responsibility.

We are deemed to be the accounting owner of the 6700 Dumbarton Circle facility in Fremont, California. The
critical factor relating to this conclusion is that we are responsible for cost over-runs, if any, related to force
majeure events including strikes, war, and material availability. The landlord is responsible for any costs related
to force majeure events that result in any damage to the facility. Since we are responsible for cost overruns
related to certain force majeure events, we are in substance offering an indemnification to the landlord for events
outside of our control. As such, we are deemed to be the accounting owner of the facility. See Note 8—
Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

We have applied the accounting and disclosure requirements set forth in ASC 810-10, Consolidation, for variable
interest entities (“VIEs”). We have evaluated each facility lease agreement to determine if the arrangement
qualifies as a VIE under ASC 810-10. We have determined that our facility lease agreements do not qualify as
VIEs, and as such, they are not required to be included in our consolidated financial statements.

Determining functional currencies for the purpose of consolidating our international operations. We have a
number of foreign subsidiaries, which together account for approximately 54% of our net revenue, approximately
31% of our total assets, and approximately 36% of our total liabilities as of December 31, 2016.

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, for subsidiaries that operate in a U.S. dollar functional
currency environment, we must remeasure balance sheet monetary items into U.S. dollars. Foreign currency
assets and liabilities are remeasured from the transaction currency into the functional currency at current
exchange rates, except for non-monetary assets, liabilities, and capital accounts, which are remeasured at
historical exchange rates. Revenue and expenses are recorded at monthly exchange rates, which approximate
average exchange rates in effect during each period. Gains or losses from foreign currency remeasurement are
included in interest income and other income (expense), net.

72

For those subsidiaries that operate in a local functional currency environment, all assets and liabilities are
translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates, while revenue and expenses are translated using
monthly exchange rates, which approximate the average exchange rates in effect during each period. Resulting
translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income
(“OCI”), adjusted for deferred income taxes.

Consequently, determination of the functional currency of each entity has a material impact on our financial
position and results of operations. Management assesses the salient economic factors, both individually and
collectively when determining the functional currency. The economic factors that must be evaluated include cash
flow, sales price, sales market, expense, financing, and intercompany transaction indicators.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments decreased by $37.6 million to $459.7 million as of
December 31, 2016 from $497.4 million as of December 31, 2015. The decrease was primarily due to cash
consideration paid for the acquisition of Optitex and Rialco, net of cash acquired, of $20.0 million, repayment of
debt assumed through business acquisitions of $8.8 million, treasury stock purchases of $74.2 million, settlement
of shares for employee common stock related tax liabilities and the stock option exercise price of certain stock
options of $9.1 million, cash payments for property and equipment of $22.4 million, funding $6.3 million in the
restricted collateral account related to our off-balance sheet lease, acquisition-related contingent consideration
payments of $28.1 million, partially offset by cash flows provided by operating activities of $121.0 million,
proceeds from ESPP purchases and stock option exercises of $11.1 million, and the impact of foreign exchange
rate changes of $0.4 million.

As of December 31, 2016, we have approximately $164.6 million of unremitted earnings, which are not available
to meet our operating and working capital requirements in the U.S. as these amounts have been permanently
reinvested. Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments held outside of the U.S. in various foreign
subsidiaries were $94.2 and $106.0 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Cash, cash
equivalents, and short term investments held outside of the U.S will be used to fund local operations and finance
international acquisitions. If these funds are needed for our operations in the U.S., we would be required to
accrue and pay U.S. federal and state income taxes on some or all of these funds. However, our intent is to
indefinitely reinvest these funds outside of the U.S. and our current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate
them to fund our U.S. operations.

Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe that our cash, cash equivalents, short-term
investments, and cash generated from operating activities will satisfy our working capital, capital expenditure,
investment, stock repurchase, commitments (see Note 8—Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements), and other liquidity requirements associated with our existing operations
through at least the next twelve months. We believe that the most strategic uses of our cash resources include
business acquisitions, strategic investments to gain access to new technologies, repurchases of shares of our
common stock, and working capital. At December 31, 2016, cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments
available were $459.7 million. We believe that our liquidity position and capital resources are sufficient to meet
our operating and working capital needs.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $121.0, $68.4, and $92.1 million for the years ended December 31,
2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

Net cash provided by operating activities in 2016 consists primarily of net income of $45.5 million and non-cash
charges and credits of $110.7 million adjusted by the net change in operating asset and liabilities of
$35.2 million. Non-cash charges and credits of $110.7 million consist primarily of $55.1 million in depreciation
and amortization, $31.7 million of stock-based compensation expense, net of cash settlements, non-cash
accretion of interest expense of $13.5 million, provision for bad debts and sales-related allowances of
$10.7 million, and provision for inventory obsolescence of $5.2 million, and other non-cash charges and credits
of $5.4 million, partially offset by deferred tax credits of $11.0 million. The net change in operating assets and
liabilities of $35.2 million consists primarily of increased gross accounts receivable of $31.2 million, increased
other current assets of $6.5 million, increased taxes receivable, net, of $2.4 million, partially offset by decreased
accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $0.6 million and decreased gross inventories of $4.3 million.

Accounts Receivable

Our primary source of operating cash flow is the collection of accounts receivable from our customers. One
measure of the effectiveness of our collection efforts is average days sales outstanding for accounts receivable
(“DSO”). DSOs were 76, 69, and 68 days at December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. We calculate
DSO by dividing net accounts receivable at the end of the quarter by revenue recognized during the quarter,
multiplied by the total days in the quarter.

DSOs increased during the year ended December 31, 2016, compared with December 31, 2015, primarily due to
increased Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software revenue as a percentage of consolidated revenue, sales with
extended payment terms, and a non-linear sales cycle resulting in significant billings at the end of the quarter.
Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software were 72% of consolidated revenue during the year ended
December 31, 2016. By comparison, Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software were 66% and 65% of
consolidated revenue during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

We expect DSOs to vary from period to period because of changes in the mix of business between direct
customers and end user demand driven through the leading printer manufacturers, the effectiveness of our

74

collection efforts both domestically and overseas, and variations in the linearity of our sales. As the percentage of
Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software related revenue increases, we expect DSOs will trend higher. Our
DSOs related to the Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software operating segments are traditionally higher than
those related to the significant printer manufacturer customers / distributors in our Fiery operating segment as,
historically, these Fiery customers have been granted shorter payment terms and have paid on a more timely
basis.

We have facilities in the U.S. and Italy that enable us to sell to third parties, on an ongoing basis, certain trade
receivables with recourse. Trade receivables sold with recourse are generally short-term receivables with
payment due dates of less than 10 days from date of sale, which are subject to a servicing obligation. We also
have facilities in Spain and Italy that enable us to sell to third parties, on an ongoing basis, certain trade
receivables without recourse. Trade receivables sold without recourse are generally short-term receivables with
payment due dates of less than one year, which are secured by international letters of credit.

Trade receivables sold cumulatively under these facilities were $19.8 and $3.5 million throughout 2016 on a
recourse and nonrecourse basis, respectively, which approximates the cash received. The receivables that were
sold to third parties were removed from the Consolidated Balance Sheets and were reflected as cash provided by
operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Inventories

Our inventories are procured primarily in support of the Industrial Inkjet and Fiery operating segments. The
majority of our Industrial Inkjet products are manufactured internally, while Fiery production is primarily
outsourced. The result is lower inventory turnover for Industrial Inkjet inventories compared with Fiery
inventories.

Our net inventories decreased by $7.3 million to $99.1 million at December 31, 2016 from $106.4 million at
December 31, 2015 due to reduced inventories in the Industrial Inkjet operating segment due to improved
inventory requirements forecasting and supplier management. Inventory turnover was 5.0 during the quarter
ended December 31, 2016 compared with 4.7 turns during the quarter ended December 31, 2015. We calculate
inventory turnover by dividing annualized current quarter cost of revenue by ending inventories.

Accounts Payable, Accrued and Other Liabilities, and Net Income Taxes Payable

Our operating cash flows are impacted by the timing of payments to our vendors for accounts payable and by our
accrual of liabilities. The change in accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities, and net income taxes payable
decreased our cash flows provided by operating activities by $1.8 and $10.6 million in 2016 and 2015,
respectively. The change in accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities, and net income taxes payable
increased our cash flows provided by operating activities by $3.1 million in 2014. Our working capital, defined
as current assets minus current liabilities, was $552.4 and $586.7 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015,
respectively.

Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities was $12.1, $110.6, and $180.7 million for the years ended December 31,

Acquisitions

On June 16, 2016, we purchased Optitex for cash consideration of $11.6 million, net of cash acquired, plus an
additional potential future cash earnout, which is contingent on achieving revenue and operating profit
performance targets. Optitex has developed and markets integrated 2D and 3D CAD software that is shortening
the design cycle, reducing our customers’ costs, and accelerating the adoption of fast fashion.

On March 1, 2016, we purchased Rialco for cash consideration of $8.4 million, net of cash acquired, plus an
additional potential future cash earnout, which is contingent on achieving revenue and gross profit targets. Rialco
is a leading European supplier of dye powders and color products for the textile, digital print, and other
decorating industries.

The escrow of $1.5 million related to the Reggiani acquisition was remitted to us in return for the issuance of
shares of common stock for the year ended December 31, 2016. We also purchased additional intellectual
property related to the Reggiani business for $0.3 million. A tax recovery liability of $1.0 million related to the
Creta Print S.L. “(Cretaprint”) acquisition was paid during the year ended December 31, 2016.

On July 1, 2015, we acquired Matan for approximately $38.9 million in cash, net of cash acquired, and Reggiani
for approximately $26.6 million in cash, net of cash acquired, $26.9 million in shares of EFI stock, plus an
additional future potential cash earnout contingent on achieving certain performance targets.

We acquired privately-held CTI and Shuttleworth during the fourth quarter of 2015, which have been included in
our Productivity Software operating segment, for aggregate cash consideration of $9.3 million, net of cash
acquired, $9.7 million in shares of EFI stock, plus a potential future cash earnout, which is contingent on
achieving certain performance targets.

SmartLinc, Rhapso, DirectSmile, and DIMS were acquired in 2014 for aggregate cash consideration of
$20.4 million, net of cash acquired, plus additional future cash earnouts contingent on achieving certain
performance targets; technology was acquired from Polymeric for $1.1 million; $0.3 million was paid related to
the GamSys Software SPRL (“GamSys”) acquisition, which was dependent on accounts receivable collections;
and purchase price adjustments of $0.2 million were paid with respect to the acquisitions of Metrix Software
(“Metrix”), Lector Computersysteme GmbH (“Lector”), and Rhapso.

Property and Equipment

Net purchases of property and equipment were $22.3, $18.5, and $15.9 million in 2016, 2015, and 2014,
respectively, including the purchase of ceramic digital ink formulation equipment and research and development
equipment.

76

Our property and equipment additions have historically been funded from operating activities. We anticipate that
we will continue to purchase necessary property and equipment in the normal course of our business. The amount
and timing of these purchases and the related cash outflows in future periods is difficult to predict and is
dependent on a number of factors including the hiring of employees, the rate of change in computer hardware /
software used in our business, and our business outlook.

Investments

Proceeds from sales and maturities, net of purchases, of marketable securities were $36.5 million in 2016.
Purchases of marketable securities, net of proceeds from sales and maturities, were $17.4 and $142.8 million in
2015 and 2014, respectively. We have classified our investment portfolio as “available for sale.” Our investments
are made with a policy of capital preservation and liquidity as primary objectives. We may hold investments in
fixed income debt securities to maturity; however, we may sell an investment at any time if the quality rating of
the investment declines, the yield on the investment is no longer attractive, or we have better uses for the cash.
Since we invest primarily in investment securities that are highly liquid with a ready market, we believe the
purchase, maturity, or sale of our investments has no material impact on our overall liquidity.

Financing Activities

Net cash used for financing activities was $109.1 and $91.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2016 and
2015, respectively. Net cash provided by financing activities as $211.0 million during the year ended
December 31, 2014.

In September 2014, we completed a private placement of $345 million principal amount of Notes. The net
proceeds from this offering were $336.3 million, after deducting commissions and offering expenses paid by us.
We used approximately $29.4 million of the net proceeds to pay the cost of the Note Hedges (after such cost was
partially offset by the proceeds from the Warrant transactions).

Stock Option and ESPP Proceeds

Historically, our recurring cash flows provided by financing activities have been from the receipt of cash from
the issuance of common stock through the exercise of stock options and employee purchases of ESPP shares. We
received proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $1.3, $2.0, and $7.7 million and employee purchases of
ESPP shares of $9.8, $9.5, and $8.6 million in 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. While we may continue to
receive proceeds from these plans in future periods, the timing and amount of such proceeds are difficult to
predict and are contingent on a number of factors including the price of our common stock, the timing and
number of stock options exercised by employees that had participated in these plans, net settlement options, and
general market conditions. We anticipate that cash provided from the exercise of stock options will decline over
time as we have shifted to issuance of RSUs, rather than stock options. Although we may grant stock option
awards from time to time, the granting of stock options is no longer our usual practice.

Treasury Stock Purchases

The primary use of funds for financing activities in 2016, 2015, and 2014 was $83.3, $76.4, and $101.1 million,
respectively, of cash used to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock. Such purchases included $9.1,
$10.7, and $24.3 million of cash used for net settlement of shares for the exercise price of certain stock options
and any tax withholding obligations incurred in connection with such exercises and minimum tax withholding
obligations that arose on the vesting of RSUs.

On November 6, 2013, the board of directors approved an authorization to repurchase of $200 million of
outstanding common stock. Under this publicly announced plan, we repurchased 1.5 and 1.8 million shares for an
aggregate purchase price of $65.7 and $76.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014,

respectively. On November 9, 2015, the board of directors cancelled $55 million, effective December 31, 2015,
remaining for repurchase under the 2013 authorization and approved a new authorization to repurchase
$150 million of outstanding common stock commencing January 1, 2016. This authorization expires
December 31, 2018. Under this publicly announced plan, we repurchased 1.8 million shares for an aggregate
purchase price of $74.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2016.

See Item 5—Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters, and Issuer Purchases of
Equity Securities for further discussion of our common stock repurchase programs.

Earnout Payments

Earnout payments during the year ended December 31, 2016 of $23.8, $3.6, $0.4, and $0.2 million are primarily
related to the previously accrued Reggiani, DirectSmile, SmartLinc, and Metrix contingent consideration
liabilities, respectively. Earnout payments during the year ended December 31, 2015 of $2.0, $1.1, $0.6, and
$0.3 million are primarily related to the previously accrued Technique, Inc. and Technique Business Systems
Limited (collectively, “Technique”), GamSys, Metrix, and SmartLinc contingent consideration liabilities,
respectively. Earnout payments during the year ended December 31, 2014 of $6.2, $4.5, $2.0, and $1.2 million
are related to the previously accrued Cretaprint, Metrics Sistemas de Informação, Serviços e Comércio Ltda. and
Metrics Sistemas de Informação e Serviço Ltda. (collectively, “Metrics”), Technique, and GamSys contingent
consideration liabilities, respectively. The portion of the Metrics and Radius earnouts representing performance
targets achieved in excess of amounts assumed in the opening balance sheet as of the respective acquisition date
was $3.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2014, and is reflected as cash used for operating activities
in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

We paid approximately $8.8 million of indebtedness, which was assumed in the Optitex and Matan acquisitions
during the year ended December 31, 2016. We paid approximately $22.5 million of indebtedness, which was
assumed in the Reggiani acquisition during the year ended December 31, 2015.

Other Commitments

Our Industrial Inkjet inventories consist of materials required for our internal manufacturing operations and
finished goods and sub-assemblies purchased from third party contract manufacturers. Raw materials and
finished goods, print heads, frames, digital UV curable ink, ceramic digital ink, various textile printing inks, and
other components are required to support our internal manufacturing operations. Label and packaging digital
inkjet printers, branded textile ink, and certain sub-assemblies are purchased from third party contract
manufacturers and branded third party ink manufacturers.

Our Fiery inventory consists primarily of raw materials and finished goods, memory subsystems, processors, and
ASICs, which are sold to third party contract manufacturers responsible for manufacturing our products. Should
we decide to purchase components and manufacture Fiery DFEs internally, or should it become necessary for us
to purchase and sell components other than memory subsystems, processors, and ASICs to our contract
manufacturers, inventory balances and potentially property and equipment would increase significantly, thereby
reducing our available cash resources. Further, the inventories we carry could become obsolete, thereby
negatively impacting our financial condition and results of operations.

We are also reliant on several sole source suppliers for certain key components and could experience a further
significant negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations if such supplies were reduced or
not available. We may be required to compensate our subcontract manufacturers for components purchased for
orders subsequently cancelled by us. We periodically review the potential liability and the adequacy of the
related allowance.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Financing

The impact of contractual obligations on our liquidity and capital resources in future periods should be analyzed
in conjunction with the factors that impact our cash flows from operating activities discussed previously. The
following table summarizes our significant contractual obligations at December 31, 2016 and the effect that such
obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods. This table excludes amounts
already recorded on our balance sheet as liabilities at December 31, 2016, with the exception of acquisition-
related contingent consideration liabilities, unrecognized tax benefits, and our Notes.

(4) As of December 31, 2016, our liability for unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, is
reflected in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as $12.0 million of “noncurrent income taxes payable” and
$23.9 million as a reduction of “deferred tax assets.” Due to the uncertainty of the timing of future
payments, unrecognized tax benefits are presented in the total column on a separate line in this table. See
Note 11—Income Taxes of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion of
unrecognized tax benefits.

Purchase obligations in the table above include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable,
noncancellable, and legally binding that specify all significant terms including fixed or minimum quantities to be
purchased; fixed, minimum, or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. Purchase
obligations exclude purchase orders for raw materials and other goods and services that are cancelable without
penalty. Our purchase orders are based on current manufacturing needs and are generally fulfilled by our vendors
within short time horizons. We also enter into contracts for outsourced services; however, the obligations under
these contracts were not significant and the contracts generally contain clauses allowing for cancellation without
significant penalty.

The expected timing of payment for the obligations listed above is estimated based on current information.
Timing of payments and actual amounts paid may be different depending on when the goods or services are
received or changes to agreed-upon amounts for some obligations.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing

On August 26, 2016, we entered into a lease agreement and have accounted for a lease term of 48.5 years,
inclusive of two renewal options of 5.0 and 3.5 years, with the City of Manchester to lease 16.9 acres of land
adjacent to the Manchester Regional Airport. The land is subleased to BTMU during the term of the lease related
to the manufacturing facility that is being constructed on the site which is described below. Minimum lease
payments are $13.1 million during the 48.5 year term of the land lease, excluding four months of the land lease
that is financed into the manufacturing facility lease.

On August 26, 2016, we entered into a six-year lease with BTMU whereby a 225,000 square foot manufacturing
and warehouse facility is under construction related to our super-wide format industrial digital inkjet printer
business in the Industrial Inkjet operating segment at a projected cost of $40 million and a construction period of
18 months. Minimum lease payments during the initial term are $1.8 million. Upon completion of the initial
term, we have the option to renew the lease, purchase the facility, or return the facility to BTMU subject to an
89% residual value guarantee under which we would recognize additional rent expense in the form of a variable
rent payment. We have assessed our exposure in relation to the residual value guarantee and believe that there is
no deficiency to the guaranteed value with respect to funds expended by BTMU as of December 31, 2016. We
are treated as the owner of the facility for federal income tax purposes.

The funds pledged under the lease represent 115% of the total expenditures made by BTMU through
December 31, 2016. The funds are invested in $5.1 and $1.2 of million U.S. government securities and cash
equivalents, respectively, with a third party trustee and will be restricted during the construction period. Upon
completion of construction, the funds will be released as cash and cash equivalents. The portion that represents
100% of the total expenditures made by BTMU will be deposited with BTMU and restricted as collateral until
the end of the underlying lease period.

Item 7A: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The following discussion of our risk management activities includes “forward-looking statements” that involve
risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements.

Market Risk

We are exposed to various market risks. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market
rates and prices, general credit, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, liquidity, and interest rate risks,
which may be exacerbated by the tight global credit market and increase in economic uncertainty that have
affected various sectors of the financial market and continue to cause credit and liquidity issues. We do not enter
into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We may enter into financial
instrument contracts to manage and reduce the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on earnings
and cash flows. The counterparties to such contracts are major financial institutions. We hedge our operating
expense exposure in Indian rupees. The notional amount of our Indian rupee cash flow hedge was $3.2 million at
December 31, 2016. We hedge balance sheet remeasurement exposures using forward contracts not designated as
hedging instruments with notional amounts of $158.7 million at December 31, 2016 consisting of hedges of
Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Israeli shekel, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Chinese renminbi, and Euro-
denominated intercompany balances with notional amounts of $90.7 million at December 31, 2016, hedges of
Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Australian dollar, Israeli shekel, and Euro-denominated trade receivables

80

with notional amounts of $39.8 million at December 31, 2016, and hedges of British pounds sterling, Indian
rupee, and Euro-denominated other net monetary assets with notional amounts of $28.2 million at December 31,
2016.

Since Europe represents a significant portion of our revenue and cash flow, SEC encourages disclosure of our
European concentrations of credit risk regarding gross receivables, related reserves, and aging on a region or
country basis, and the impact on liquidity with respect to estimated timing of receivable payments. Since Europe
is composed of varied countries and regional economies, our European risk profile is somewhat more diversified
due to the varying economic conditions among the countries. Approximately 28% of our receivables are with
European customers as of December 31, 2016. Of this amount, 26% of our European receivables (7% of
consolidated net receivables) are in the higher risk southern European countries (mostly Spain, Portugal, and
Italy).

Marketable Securities

We maintain an investment portfolio of short-term fixed income debt securities of various holdings, types, and
maturities. These short-term investments are generally classified as available-for-sale and, consequently, are
recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate
component of OCI. We attempt to limit our exposure to interest rate risk by investing in securities with maturities
of less than three years; however, we may be unable to successfully limit our risk to interest rate fluctuations. At
any time, a sharp rise in interest rates could have a material adverse impact on the fair value of our investment
portfolio. Conversely, declines in interest rates could have a material favorable impact on the fair value of our
investment portfolio. Increases or decreases in interest rates could have a material impact on interest earnings
related to new investments during the period. We do not currently hedge these interest rate exposures.

Interest Rate Risk

Hypothetical changes in the fair values of financial instruments held by us at December 31, 2016 that are
sensitive to changes in interest rates are presented below. The modeling technique measures the change in fair
value arising from selected potential changes in interest rates. Market changes reflect immediate hypothetical
parallel shifts in the yield curve of plus or minus 100 basis points over a twelve month time horizon (in

We have no European sovereign debt investments. Our European debt investments consist of non-sovereign
corporate debt securities of $28.0 million, which represents 14% of our corporate debt instruments (9% of our
short-term investments) at December 31, 2016. European debt investments are with corporations domiciled in the
northern and central European countries of Sweden, Netherlands, Norway, France, Switzerland, and the U.K. We
do not have any short-term investments with corporations domiciled in the higher risk “southern European”
countries (i.e., Italy, Spain, Greece, and Portugal) or Ireland. We believe that we do not have significant exposure
with respect to our money market and corporate debt investments in Europe, although we do have some exposure
due to the interdependencies among the European Union countries.

As of December 31, 2016, we have $345 million principal amount of Notes outstanding. We carry these
instruments at face value less unamortized discount on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Since these instruments
bear interest at fixed rates, we have no financial statement risk associated with changes in interest rates. Although
the fair value of these instruments fluctuates when interest rates change, a substantial portion of the market value

81

of our Notes in excess of the outstanding principal amount relates to the conversion premium. Please refer to
Note 6—Investments and Fair Value Measurements and Note 7—Convertible Senior Notes, Note Hedges, and
Warrants of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

A large portion of our business is conducted in countries other than the U.S. We are primarily exposed to changes
in exchange rates for the Euro, British pound sterling, Indian rupee, Japanese yen, Brazilian real, Chinese
renminbi, Israeli shekel, New Zealand dollar, and Australian dollar. Although the majority of our receivables are
invoiced and collected in U.S. dollars, we have exposure from non-U.S. dollar-denominated sales (consisting of
the Euro, British pound sterling, Brazilian real, Chinese renminbi, Israeli shekel, Australian dollar, and Canadian
dollar) and operating expenses (primarily the Euro, British pound sterling, Chinese renminbi, Israeli shekel,
Japanese yen, Indian rupee, Brazilian real, and Australian dollar) in foreign countries. We can benefit from or be
adversely affected by either a weaker or stronger U.S. dollar relative to major currencies worldwide with respect
to our consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, we can benefit from a stronger U.S. dollar due to the
corresponding reduction in our foreign operating expenses translated in U.S. dollars and at the same time we can
be adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar due to the corresponding reduction in foreign revenue translated in
U.S. dollars.

We hedge our operating expense exposure in Indian rupees. The notional amount of our Indian rupee cash flow
hedge was $3.2 million at December 31, 2016. We hedge balance sheet remeasurement exposures using forward
contracts not designated as hedging instruments with notional amounts of $158.7 million at December 31, 2016
consisting of hedges of Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Israeli shekel, Australian dollar, Japanese yen,
Chinese renminbi, and Euro-denominated intercompany balances with notional amounts of $90.7 million at
December 31, 2016, hedges of Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Australian dollar, Israeli shekel, and Euro-
denominated trade receivables with notional amounts of $39.8 million at December 31, 2016, and hedges of
British pounds sterling, Indian rupee, and Euro-denominated other net monetary assets with notional amounts of
$28.2 million at December 31, 2016.

The impact of hypothetical changes in foreign exchanges rates on revenue and income from operations are
presented below. The modeling technique measures the change in revenue and income from operations resulting

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Fremont, California

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Electronics For Imaging, Inc. and subsidiaries
(the “Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the related consolidated statements of operations,
comprehensive income, cash flows, and stockholders’ equity for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2016. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15.
These consolidated financial statements and 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 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Electronics For Imaging, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion,
such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements
taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We have also 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 December 31, 2016, based on the
criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 21, 2017, expressed an unqualified
opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EFI and our subsidiaries. All
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires estimates and judgments that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, comprehensive income, cash flows, and related disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, bad
debts, inventory valuation and purchase commitment reserves, warranty obligations, litigation expenses,
restructuring activities, fair value of financial instruments, stock-based compensation, income taxes, valuation of
goodwill and intangible assets, business combinations, build-to-suit lease accounting, functional currency
determination, and contingencies on an ongoing basis. Estimates are based on historical and current experience,
the impact of the current economic environment, and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under
the circumstances at the time of the estimate, 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.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Short-term Investments

We invest our excess cash on deposit with major banks in money market, U.S. Treasury and government-
sponsored entity, corporate, municipal government, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed residential securities. By
policy, we invest primarily in high-grade marketable securities. We are exposed to credit risk in the event of
default by the financial institutions or issuers of these investments to the extent of amounts recorded in our
Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of
purchase to be cash equivalents. Typically, the cost of these investments has approximated fair value. Marketable
investments with a maturity greater than three months are classified as available-for-sale short-term investments.
Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate
component of OCI, adjusted for deferred income taxes. The credit portion of any other-than-temporary
impairment is included in net income. Realized gains and losses on sales of financial instruments are recognized
upon sale of the investments using the specific identification method.

We review investments in debt securities for other-than-temporary impairment whenever the fair value is less
than the amortized cost and evidence indicates the investment’s carrying amount is not recoverable within a
reasonable period of time. We assess the fair value of individual securities as part of our ongoing portfolio
management. Our other-than-temporary assessment includes reviewing the length of time and extent to which
fair value has been less than amortized cost; the seniority and durations of the securities; adverse conditions
related to a security, industry, or sector; historical and projected issuer financial performance, credit ratings,
issuer specific news; and other available relevant information. To determine whether an impairment is other-
than-temporary, we consider whether we have the intent to sell the impaired security or if it will be more likely
than not that we will be required to sell the impaired security before a market price recovery and whether
evidence indicating the cost of the investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary.

In determining whether a credit loss existed, we used our best estimate of the present value of cash flows
expected to be collected from each debt security. For these cash flow estimates, including prepayment
assumptions, we rely on data from widely accepted third party data sources or internal estimates. In addition to
prepayment assumptions, cash flow estimates vary based on assumptions regarding the underlying collateral
including default rates, recoveries, and changes in value. Expected cash flows were discounted using the
effective interest rate implicit in the securities.

Based on this analysis, there were no other-than-temporary impairments, including credit-related impairments,
during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014. We have determined that gross unrealized losses on
short-term investments at December 31, 2016 and 2015 are temporary in nature because each investment meets
our investment policy and credit quality requirements. We have the ability and intent to hold these investments
until they recover their unrealized losses, which may not be until maturity. Evidence that we will recover our
investments outweighs evidence to the contrary.

We classify our investments as current or noncurrent based on the nature of the investments and their availability
for use in current operations.

Restricted Investments and Cash Equivalents

As explained further in Note 8—Commitments and Contingencies, we have restricted investments and cash
equivalents of $6.3 million as of December 31, 2016 related to a lease entered into with Bank of Tokyo—
Mitsubishi UFJ Leasing & Financing LLC (“BTMU”) related to the construction of manufacturing and
warehouse facilities in Manchester, New Hampshire, in our Industrial Inkjet operating segment.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

The funds pledged under the lease represent 115% of the total expenditures made by BTMU through
December 31, 2016. The funds are invested in $5.1 and $1.2 million of U.S. government securities and cash
equivalents, respectively, with a third party trustee and are restricted during the construction period. Upon
completion of construction, the funds will be released as cash and cash equivalents. The portion of released funds
representing 100% of the total expenditures made by BTMU will be deposited with BTMU and restricted as
collateral until the end of the underlying lease period.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We assess the fair value of our financial instruments each reporting period. The carrying amounts of cash, cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued and other liabilities, approximate their respective
fair values due to the short maturities of these financial instruments. The fair value of our available-for-sale
securities, contingent acquisition-related liabilities, self-insurance liability, derivative instruments, and
convertible senior notes are disclosed in Note 6—Investments and Fair Value Measurements of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue Recognition

We derive our revenue primarily from product revenue, which includes hardware (DFEs, design-licensed
solutions including upgrades, industrial digital inkjet printers including components replaced under maintenance
agreements, and ink), software licensing and development, and royalties. We receive service revenue from
software license and printer maintenance agreements, customer support, training, and consulting.

We recognize revenue on the sale of DFEs, printers, and ink in accordance with the provisions of SEC Staff
Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104, Revenue Recognition, and when applicable, ASC 605-25. As such, revenue is
generally recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered or
services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection of the resulting receivable is
reasonably assured.

Products generally must be shipped against written purchase orders. We use either a binding purchase order or
signed contract as evidence of an arrangement. Sales to the leading printer manufacturers are generally evidenced
by a master agreement governing the relationship together with a binding purchase order. Sales to our resellers
are also evidenced by binding purchase orders or signed contracts and do not generally contain rights of return or
price protection. Our arrangements generally do not include product acceptance clauses. When acceptance is
required, revenue is recognized when the product is accepted by the customer.

Delivery of hardware generally is complete when title and risk of loss is transferred at point of shipment from
manufacturing facilities, or when the product is delivered to the customer’s local common carrier. We also sell
products and services using sales arrangements with terms resulting in different timing for revenue recognition as
follows:

•

•

•

•

if the title and/or risk of loss is transferred at a location other than our manufacturing facility, revenue
is recognized when title and risk of loss transfers to the customer, per the terms of the agreement;

if title is retained until payment is received, revenue is recognized when title is passed upon receipt of
payment;

if the sales arrangement is classified as an operating lease, revenue is recognized ratably over the lease
term;

if the sales arrangement is classified as a sales-type lease, revenue is recognized upon shipment;

92

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

•

if the sales arrangement is a fixed price for performance extending over a long period and our right to
receive future payment depends on our future performance in accordance with these agreements,
revenue is recognized under the percentage of completion method.

We assess whether the fee is fixed or determinable based on the terms of the contract or purchase order. We
assess collectibility based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer, the
creditworthiness of the customer, customer concentrations, current economic trends and macroeconomic
conditions, changes in customer payment terms, the length of time receivables are past due, and significant
one-time events. We may not request collateral from our customers, although down payments or letters of credit
are generally required from Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software customers to ensure payment. If we
determine that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, we defer the fee and recognize revenue when
collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash.

We license our software primarily under perpetual licenses. Software revenue consists of licensing, post-contract
customer support, and professional consulting. We apply the provisions of ASC 985-605, Software—Revenue
Recognition, and if applicable, SAB 104, and ASC 605-25, to all transactions involving the sale of software
products and hardware transactions where the software is not incidental.

We enter into contracts to sell our products and services. While the majority of our sales agreements contain
standard terms and conditions, there are agreements containing multiple elements or non-standard terms and
conditions. As a result, significant contract interpretation is sometimes required to determine the appropriate
accounting, including whether the deliverables specified in a multiple element arrangement should be treated as
separate units of accounting for revenue recognition purposes, and, if so, how the price should be allocated
among the elements and when to recognize revenue for each element. We recognize revenue for delivered
elements only when the delivered elements have stand-alone value, uncertainties regarding customer acceptance
are resolved, and there are no customer-negotiated refund or return rights for the delivered elements. If the
arrangement includes a customer-negotiated refund or right of return relative to the delivered item and the
delivery and performance of the undelivered item is considered probable and substantially in our control, the
delivered element constitutes a separate unit of accounting. We limit revenue recognition for delivered elements
to the amount that is not contingent on the future delivery of products or services, future performance
obligations, or subject to customer-specified return or refund privileges. Changes in the allocation of the sales
price between elements may impact the timing of revenue recognition, but will not change the total revenue
recognized on the contract.

Multiple-Deliverable Arrangements

We recognize revenue in multiple element arrangements involving tangible products containing software and
non-software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality by applying the
relative sales price method of allocation in accordance with ASC 605-25. The sales price for each element is
determined using VSOE when available (including post-contract customer support, professional services,
hosting, and training). When VSOE is not available, then TPE is used. If VSOE or TPE are not available, then
BESP is used when applying the relative sales price method for each unit of accounting. When the arrangement
includes software and non-software elements, revenue is first allocated to the non-software and software
elements as a group based on their relative sales price. Thereafter, the relative sales price allocated to the
software elements as a group is further allocated to each unit of accounting in accordance with ASC 985-605. We
then defer revenue with respect to the relative sales price that was allocated to any undelivered element.

We have calculated BESP for software licenses and non-software deliverables. We considered several different
methods of establishing BESP including cost plus a reasonable margin, stand-alone sales price of the same or

93

o
F

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

similar products, and if available, targeted rate of return, list price less discount, and company published list
prices to identify the most appropriate representation of the estimated sales price of our products. Due to the wide
range of pricing offered to our customers, we determined that sales price of the same or similar products, list
price less discount, and company published list prices were not appropriate methods to determine BESP for our
products. Cost plus a reasonable margin and targeted rate of return were eliminated due to the difficulty in
determining the cost associated with the intangible elements of each product’s cost structure. As a result,
management believes that the best estimate of the sales price of an element is the median sales price of
deliverables sold in stand-alone transactions and/or separately priced deliverables contained in bundled
arrangements. Elements sold as stand-alone transactions and in bundled arrangements during the four quarters
immediately preceding the end of each reporting period were included in the calculation of BESP.

When historical data is unavailable to calculate and support the determination of BESP on a newly launched or
customized product, then BESP of similar products is substituted for revenue allocation purposes. We offer
customization for some of our products. Customization does not have a significant impact on the discounting or
pricing of our products.

We have insignificant transactions where tangible and software products are sold together in a bundled
arrangement. Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-14, Certain Revenue Arrangements that Include
Software Elements, determined that tangible products containing software and non-software components that
function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality are not required to follow the software revenue
recognition guidance in ASC 985-605 as long as the hardware components of the tangible product substantively
contribute to its functionality. In addition, hardware components of tangible products containing software
components shall always be excluded from the guidance in ASC 985-605. Non-software elements are accounted
for in accordance with SAB 104.

Multiple element arrangements containing only software elements remain subject to the provisions of ASC
985-605 and must follow the residual method. When several elements of a multiple element arrangement,
including software licenses, post-contract customer support, hosting, and professional services, are sold to a
customer through a single contract, the revenue from such multiple element arrangements are allocated to each
element using the residual method in accordance with ASC 985-605. Revenue is allocated to the support
elements and professional service elements of an agreement using VSOE and to the software license elements of
the agreement using the residual method. We have established VSOE for professional services and hosting based
on the rates charged to our customers in stand-alone orders. We have also established VSOE for post-contract
customer support based on substantive renewal rates. Accordingly, software license fees are recognized under the
residual method for arrangements in which the software was licensed with maintenance and/or professional
services, and where the maintenance and professional services were not essential to the functionality of the
delivered software.

Subscription Arrangements

We have subscription arrangements where the customer pays a fixed fee and receives services over a period of
time. We recognize subscription revenue ratably over the service period. Any up front setup fees associated with
our subscription arrangements are recognized ratably, generally over one year. Any up front setup fees that are
not associated with our subscription arrangements are recognized upon completion.

Leasing Arrangements

If the sales arrangement is classified as a sales-type lease, then revenue is recognized upon shipment. Leases that
are not classified as sales-type leases are accounted for as operating leases with revenue recognized ratably over
the lease term.

94

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

A lease is classified as a sales-type lease with revenue recognized upon shipment if the lease is determined to be
collectible and has no significant uncertainties and if any of the following criteria are satisfied:

•

•

•

•

present value of all minimum lease payments is greater than or equal to 90% of the fair value of the
equipment at lease inception,

noncancellable lease term is greater than or equal to 75% of the economic life of the equipment,

bargain purchase option that allows the lessee to purchase the equipment below fair value, or

transfer of ownership to the lessee upon termination of the lease.

Long-term Contracts Involving Substantial Customization

We have established our ability to produce estimates sufficiently dependable to require that we follow the
percentage of completion method with respect to fixed price contracts where we provide information technology
system development and implementation services.

Revenue on such fixed price contracts is recognized over the contract term based on the percentage of
development and implementation services that are provided during the period compared with the total estimated
development and implementation services to be provided over the entire contract using guidance from ASC
605-35, Revenue Recognition—Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. These services require that
we perform significant, extensive, and complex design, development, modification, or implementation activities
of our customers’ systems. Performance will often extend over long periods, and our right to receive future
payment depends on our future performance in accordance with these agreements.

We recognize losses on long-term fixed price contracts in the period that the contractual loss becomes probable
and estimable. We record amounts invoiced to customers in excess of revenue recognized as deferred revenue
until the revenue recognition criteria are met. We record revenue that is earned and recognized in excess of
amounts invoiced on fixed price contracts as trade receivables.

Deferred Revenue and Related Deferred Costs

Deferred revenue represents amounts received in advance for product support contracts, software customer
support contracts, consulting and integration projects, or product sales. Product support contracts include stand-
alone product support packages, routine maintenance service contracts, and upgrades or extensions to standard
product warranties. We defer these amounts when we invoice the customer and then generally recognize revenue
either ratably over the support contract life, upon performing the related services, under the percentage of
completion method, or in accordance with our revenue recognition policy. Deferred cost of revenue related to
unrecognized revenue on shipments to customers was $3.4 and $8.7 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015,
respectively, and is included in other current assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling costs are included in revenue. Shipping and handling
costs are charged to cost of revenue as incurred.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Sales-related Allowances

We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure that trade receivables are not overstated due to
uncollectibility. We record specific reserves for individual accounts when we become aware of specific customer
circumstances, such as bankruptcy filings, deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position,
or potential unfavorable outcomes from disputes with customers or vendors.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of the financial condition of our printer manufacturer, third-party
distributor, reseller, and other customers and require collateral, such as letters of credit and bank guarantees, in
certain circumstances. The past due or delinquency status of a receivable is based on the contractual payment
terms of the receivable. The need to write off a receivable balance depends on the age, size, and determination of
collectibility of the receivable. Balances are written off when we deem it probable that the receivable will not be
recovered.

We make provisions for sales rebates and revenue adjustments based on analysis of current sales programs and
revenue in accordance with our revenue recognition policy.

Financing Receivables

ASC 310, Receivables, requires disclosures regarding the credit quality of our financing receivables and
allowance for credit losses including disclosure of credit quality indicators, past due information, and
modifications of our financing receivables. Our financing receivables were $31.0 and $14.8 million consisting of
$17.8 and $10.2 million of sales-type lease receivables, included within other current assets and other assets, and
$13.2 and $4.6 million of trade receivables having a contractual maturity in excess of one year at December 31,
2016 and 2015, respectively. The trade receivables of $13.2 and $4.6 million having an original total contractual
maturity in excess of one year at December 31, 2016 and 2015, include $7.1 and $3.2 million, respectively,
which are scheduled to be received in less than one year. The credit quality of financing receivables is evaluated
on the same basis as trade receivables. We do not have material past due financing receivables.

Concentration of Risk

We are exposed to credit risk in the event of default by any of our customers to the extent of amounts recorded in
the Consolidated Balance Sheet. We perform ongoing evaluations of the collectibility of accounts receivable
balances for our customers and maintain allowances for estimated credit losses. Actual losses have not
historically been significant, but have risen over the past several years as our customer base has grown through
acquisitions.

Our Fiery products, which constitute approximately 28% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2016, are
primarily sold to a limited number of leading printer manufacturers. Although end customer and reseller channel
preference for Fiery products drives demand, most Fiery revenue relies on these significant printer manufacturer /
distributors to integrate Fiery technology into the design and development of their print engines. We expect that
we will continue to depend on a relatively small number of leading printer manufacturers for a significant portion
of our revenue, although their significance is expected to decline in future periods as our revenue increases from
Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software products. We generally have experienced longer accounts receivable
collection cycles in our Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software operating segments compared to our Fiery
operating segment as, historically, the leading printer manufacturers have paid on a more timely basis. Down
payments are generally required from Industrial Inkjet and Productivity Software customers as a means to ensure
payment.

Since Europe is composed of varied countries and regional economies, our European risk profile is somewhat
more diversified due to the varying economic conditions among the countries. Approximately 28% of our
receivables are with European customers as of December 31, 2016. Of this amount, 26% of our European
receivables (7% of consolidated net receivables) are in the higher risk southern European countries (mostly
Spain, Portugal, and Italy).

We rely on a limited number of suppliers for certain key components, including textile ink, and a few key
contract manufacturers for our Fiery DFEs, label and packaging digital inkjet printers, and certain Industrial

96

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

Inkjet subassemblies. Any disruption or termination of these arrangements could materially adversely affect our
operating results.

Many of our current Fiery and Productivity Software products include software that we license from Adobe. To
obtain licenses from Adobe, Adobe requires that we obtain quality assurance approvals from them for our
products that use Adobe software.

Accounts Receivable Sales Arrangements

We have facilities in Spain and Italy that enable us to sell to third parties, on an ongoing basis, certain trade
receivables without recourse. Trade receivables sold without recourse are generally short-term receivables with
payment due dates of less than one year, which are secured by international letters of credit. Trade receivables
sold under these facilities were $3.5 and $3.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015,
respectively, which approximates the cash received.

We have facilities in the U.S. and Italy that enable us to sell to third parties, on an ongoing basis, certain trade
receivables with recourse. The trade receivables sold with recourse are generally short-term receivables with
payment due dates of less than 10 days after year end, which are subject to a servicing obligation. Trade
receivables sold under these facilities were $19.8 and $23.2 million during the years ended December 31, 2016
and 2015, respectively, which approximates the cash received.

In accordance with ASC 860-20, Transfers and Servicing, trade receivables are derecognized from our
Consolidated Balance Sheet when sold to third parties upon determining that such receivables are presumptively
beyond the reach of creditors in a bankruptcy proceeding. The recourse obligation is measured using market data
from similar transactions and the servicing liability is determined based on the fair value that a third party would
charge to service these receivables. These liabilities were determined to not be material at December 31, 2016
and 2015.

We report collections from the sale of trade receivables to third parties as operating cash flows in the
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Inventories

Inventories are generally stated at standard cost, which approximates the lower of actual cost, using the first-in,
first-out cost flow assumption, or market. We periodically review our inventories for potential excess or obsolete
items and write down specific items to net realizable value as appropriate. Work-in-process inventories consist of
our product at various levels of assembly and include materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead. Finished
goods inventory represents completed products awaiting shipment.

We estimate potential future inventory obsolescence and purchase commitments to evaluate the need for
inventory reserves. Current economic trends, changes in customer demand, product design changes, product life,
demand, and the acceptance of our products are analyzed to evaluate the adequacy of such reserves.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: desktop and laptop computers (two years), computer server
equipment (three years), software under perpetual licenses (three to five years), manufacturing equipment (seven
years), testing and other equipment (three years), tooling (lesser of three years or the product life), research and

97

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

development equipment with alternative future uses (three years), equipment leased to customers on operating
leases (greater of three years or the lease term), furniture (five years), land improvements such as parking lots or
sidewalks (seven years), leasehold improvements (the lease term), building improvements (five to ten years),
building and improvements under a build-to-suit lease (forty years), and purchased buildings (forty years). When
assets are disposed, the asset and accumulated depreciation are removed from our records and the related gain or
loss is recognized in our results of operations.

Depreciation expense was $14.1, $12.2, and $9.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and
2014, respectively. Repairs and maintenance expenditures are expensed as incurred, unless they are considered to
be improvements and extend the useful life of the property and equipment.

Internal Use Software

In accordance with ASC 350-40, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software, software
development costs, including costs incurred to purchase third party software, are capitalized during the
application development stage when certain factors are present including, among others, that technology exists to
achieve the performance requirements, management has committed to funding the project, and conceptual
formulation, design, and testing of possible software alternatives (preliminary project phase) have all been
completed. Costs incurred during the preliminary project phase, post-implementation /operational phase, process
re-engineering, training, and maintenance must be expensed as incurred. The accumulation of software costs to
be capitalized ceases when the software is substantially developed and is ready for its intended use. Capitalized
internal use software is amortized over an estimated useful life of three to five years using the straight-line
method.

Goodwill

Goodwill is recorded when the consideration paid for an acquisition exceeds the fair value of net tangible and
intangible assets acquired. We perform our annual goodwill impairment analysis in the fourth quarter of each
year or more frequently if we believe indicators of impairment exist. Triggering events that may require an
impairment analysis include indicators such as adverse industry or economic trends, restructuring actions,
significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets, significant changes in the strategy for our
overall business, lower projections of profitability, significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period, or
a sustained decline in our market capitalization.

According to the provisions of ASC 350-20-35, a two-step impairment test of goodwill is required, unless the
simplified method is elected. In the first step, the fair value of each reporting unit is compared to its carrying
value. If the fair value exceeds carrying value, goodwill is not impaired and further testing is not required. If the
carrying value exceeds fair value, then the second step of the impairment test is required to determine the implied
fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is calculated by deducting the fair
value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit, excluding goodwill, from the fair value of the
reporting unit as determined in the first step. If the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its
implied fair value, then an impairment loss must be recorded equal to the difference. We have not been required
to perform this second step of the process because the fair value of our reporting units have exceeded their
carrying value as of December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014.

Long-lived Assets, including Intangible Assets

Purchased intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their economic lives of two to six years for
developed technology, three to nine years for customer contracts/relationships, four to five years for covenants

98

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

not to compete, and three to sixteen years for trademarks and trade names as we believe this method most closely
reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets will be consumed. The useful life of certain
developed technology was reduced during 2016 based on a re-assessment of the useful life of the technology with
a $1.6 million impact on amortization expense. No changes have been made to the useful lives of amortizable
identifiable intangible assets in 2015 or 2014. Intangible amortization expense was $39.6, $26.5, and
$20.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, or 2014, respectively.

We review the carrying values of long-lived assets whenever events and circumstances, such as reductions in
demand, lower projections of profitability, significant changes in the manner of our use of acquired assets, or
significant negative industry or economic trends, indicate that the net book value of an asset may not be
recovered through expected future cash flows from its use and eventual disposition. If this review indicates that
an impairment has occurred, the impaired asset is written down to its fair value, which is typically calculated
using quoted market prices and/or expected future cash flows. Our estimates regarding future anticipated net
revenue and cash flows, the remaining economic life of the products and technologies, or both, may differ from
those used to assess the recoverability of assets. In that event, impairment charges or shortened useful lives of
certain long-lived assets may be required, resulting in charges to our Consolidated Statements of Operations
when such determinations are made. No asset impairment charges were recognized during the years ended
December 31, 2016, 2015, or 2014.

Warranty Reserves

Our Industrial Inkjet printers are generally accompanied by a 12-month limited warranty, which covers both parts
and labor. Our Fiery DFE limited warranty is 12 to 15 months. Estimated future hardware and software warranty
costs are recorded as a cost of product revenue when the related revenue is recognized based on historical and
projected warranty claim rates, historical and projected cost-per-claim, and knowledge of specific product
failures that are outside our typical experience. Factors that affect our warranty liability include the number of
installed units subject to warranty protection, product failure rates, estimated material costs, estimated
distribution costs, and estimated labor costs.

Warranty reserves were $10.3 and $9.6 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Litigation Accruals

We may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations, or proceedings relating to
contractual disputes, securities laws, intellectual property rights, employment, or other matters that may arise in
the normal course of business. We assess our potential liability in each of these matters by using the information
available to us. We develop our views on estimated losses in consultation with inside and outside counsel, which
involves a subjective analysis of potential results and various combinations of appropriate litigation and
settlement strategies. We accrue estimated losses from contingencies if a loss is deemed probable and can be
reasonably estimated.

Restructuring Reserves

Restructuring liabilities are established when the costs have been incurred. Severance and other employee
separation costs are incurred when management commits to a plan of termination identifying the number of
employees impacted, their termination dates, and the terms of their severance arrangements. The liability is
accrued at the employee notification date unless service is required beyond the greater of 60 days or the legal
notification period, in which case the liability is recognized ratably over the service period. Facility downsizing
and closure costs are accrued at the earlier of the lessor notification date, if the lease agreement allows for early

99

termination, or the cease use date. Relocation costs are incurred when the related relocation services are
performed. Costs related to contracts without future benefit are incurred at the earlier of the cease use date or the
contract cancellation date.

Research and Development

Research and development costs were $151.2, $141.4, and $134.7 million for the years ended December 31,
2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. We expense research and development costs associated with new software
products as incurred until technological feasibility is established. Research and development costs include
salaries and benefits of employees performing research and development activities, supplies, and other expenses
incurred from research and development efforts. To date, we have not capitalized research and development costs
associated with software development as products and enhancements have generally reached technological
feasibility, as defined by U.S. GAAP, and have been released for sale at substantially the same time. We have
capitalized research and development equipment that has been acquired or constructed for research and
development activities and has alternative future uses (in research and development projects or otherwise). Such
research and development equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis with a three year useful life.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total advertising and promotional expenses were $4.6, $4.3, and
$4.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, which requires that deferred tax
assets and liabilities be determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of
assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to
reverse. We estimate our actual current tax expense including permanent charges and benefits and the temporary
differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and financial accounting purposes such as deferred
revenue. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in our Consolidated
Balance Sheets.

We assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income by considering
both positive and negative evidence relating to their recoverability. If we believe that recovery of these deferred
tax assets is not more likely than not, we establish a valuation allowance. Significant judgment is required in
determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets.

In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we considered all available evidence, including recent operating
results, projections of future taxable income, our ability to utilize loss and credit carryforwards, and the
feasibility of tax planning strategies. Other than a valuation allowance related to realization of existing
California, Luxembourg, Israel, Netherlands, and Turkey deferred tax assets, we have determined that it is more
likely than not that we will realize the benefit related to all other deferred tax assets. To the extent we increase a
valuation allowance, we include an expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period in which
such determination is made.

We account for uncertainty in income taxes by recognizing a tax position only when it is more likely than not
that the tax position, based on its technical merits, will be sustained upon ultimate settlement with the applicable
tax authority. The tax benefit to be recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than fifty percent
likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the applicable tax authority that has full knowledge of all

100

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

relevant information. Tax benefits that are deemed to be less than fifty percent likely of being realized are
recorded in noncurrent income taxes payable until the uncertainty has been resolved through either examination
by the relevant taxing authority or expiration of the pertinent statutes of limitations.

Business Combinations

We allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, including
IPR&D, and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. Such a valuation requires management to
make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. The results of operations
for each acquisition are included in our financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Our acquisitions are accounted for as purchase business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting
in accordance with ASC 805. Key provisions of the acquisition method of accounting include the following:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

one hundred percent of assets and liabilities of the acquired business, including goodwill, are recorded
at fair value, regardless of the percentage of the business acquired;

contingent assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value at the acquisition date;

contingent consideration is recognized at fair value at the acquisition date with changes in fair value
recognized in earnings as assumptions are updated or upon settlement;

IPR&D is recognized at fair value at the acquisition date subject to amortization after product launch or
otherwise assessed for impairment;

acquisition-related transaction and restructuring costs are expensed as incurred;

reversals of valuation allowances related to acquired deferred tax assets and liabilities and changes to
acquired income tax uncertainties are recognized in earnings;

when making adjustments to finalize preliminary accounting during the measurement period, which
may be up to one year, we recognize measurement period adjustments in the reporting period in which
the adjustment amounts are determined as required by ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for
Measurement Period Adjustments; and

upon final determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed during the
measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to our Consolidated Statements of
Operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, which requires stock-based
compensation expense to be recognized based on the fair value of such awards on the date of grant. We amortize
stock-based compensation expense on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period after assessing the
probability of achieving the requisite performance criteria with respect to performance-based awards. Stock-
based compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche as
though the award were, in substance, multiple awards.

Forfeitures have been estimated at the grant date and revised on a cumulative basis, if necessary, in subsequent
periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. We used historical data and future expectations of
employee turnover to estimate forfeitures. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-09, Stock Compensation—Improvements
to Employee Share Based Payment Accounting, in 2016, we elected to account for forfeitures when they occur
instead of estimating the expected forfeiture rate.

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

Our determination of the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option pricing
model is affected by volatility, expected term, and interest rate assumptions. Expected volatility is based on the
historical volatility of our stock over a preceding period commensurate with the expected term of the option. The
expected term is based on management’s consideration of the historical life of the options, the vesting period of
the options granted, and the contractual period of the options granted. The risk-free interest rate for the expected
term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected dividend
yield was not considered in the option pricing formula since we do not pay dividends and have no current plans
to do so in the future.

The tax benefit resulting from tax deductions in excess of the tax benefits related to stock-based compensation
expense recognized for those awards are classified as financing cash flows.

Foreign Currency Translation

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, for subsidiaries that operate in a U.S. dollar functional
currency environment, we remeasure balance sheet monetary items into U.S. dollars. Foreign currency assets and
liabilities are remeasured from the transaction currency into the functional currency at current exchange rates,
except for non-monetary assets, liabilities, and capital accounts, which are remeasured at historical exchange
rates. Revenue and expenses are remeasured at monthly exchange rates, which approximate average exchange
rates in effect during each period. Gains or losses from foreign currency remeasurement are included in interest
income and other income (expense), net. Net gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions,
including hedging gains and losses, are reported in interest income and other income (expense), net, and were
losses of $3.8, $4.2, and $6.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

For subsidiaries that operate in a local functional currency environment, all assets and liabilities are translated
into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates, while revenue and expenses are translated using monthly
exchange rates, which approximate the average exchange rates in effect during each period. Resulting translation
adjustments are reported as a separate component of OCI, adjusted for deferred income taxes. The cumulative
translation adjustment balance, net of tax, at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was unrealized losses of $24.2 and
$17.0 million, respectively.

Based on our assessment of the salient economic indicators discussed in ASC 830-10-55-5, Foreign Currency
Matters, we consider the U.S. dollar to be the functional currency for each of our international subsidiaries except
for our Brazilian subsidiary, Metrics, for which we consider the Brazilian real to be the subsidiary’s functional
currency; our German subsidiaries, EFI GmbH and Alphagraph, for which we consider the Euro to be the
subsidiaries’ functional currency; our Italian subsidiary, Reggiani, for which we consider the Euro to be the
functional currency; our Spanish subsidiary, Cretaprint, for which we consider the Euro to be the subsidiary’s
functional currency; our U.K. subsidiaries, Electronics For Imaging United Kingdom Limited, Shuttleworth, and
Rialco, for which we consider the British pound sterling to be the subsidiaries’ functional currency; our Israeli
subsidiary, Matan, for which we consider the shekel to be the functional currency; our Japanese subsidiary,
Electronics For Imaging Japan KK, for which we consider the Japanese yen to be the subsidiary’s functional
currency; our New Zealand subsidiary contains the Prism Group Holdings Limited (“Prism”) operations in New
Zealand for which we consider the New Zealand dollar to be the functional currency; our Australian subsidiary
contains the Prism, OPS, and Metrix operations in Australia for which we consider the Australian dollar to be the
functional currency; and our subsidiary in the People’s Republic of China, which contains the operations of our
Cretaprint sales and support center and our Industrial Inkjet demonstration center for which we consider the
renminbi to be the functional currency. Optitex generates revenue and incurs operating expenses primarily in
local currencies. Upon consideration of the salient economic indicators, we consider the local currency in each of
Optitex’s primary locations (shekel, rupee, Euro, and U.S. dollar) to be the functional currencies for Optitex.

Net Income per Common Share

Net income per basic common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Net income per diluted common share is computed using the weighted average
number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential
common shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding common stock options having a dilutive effect
using the treasury stock method, non-vested shares of restricted stock having a dilutive effect, non-vested
restricted stock for which the performance criteria have been met, shares to be purchased under our ESPP having
a dilutive effect, the assumed issuance at the beginning of 2016 of shares potentially issued from escrow related
to the acquisition of CTI, the assumed issuance at the beginning of 2016 of shares issued from escrow during
2016 related to the acquisition of Reggiani, the assumed conversion of our Notes having a dilutive effect using
the treasury stock method, as well as the dilutive effect of our warrants when the stock price exceeds the
conversion price of the Notes. Any potential shares that are anti-dilutive as defined in ASC 260, Earnings Per
Share, are excluded from the effect of dilutive securities.

Performance-based and market-based restricted stock and stock options that would be issuable if the end of the
reporting period were the end of the vesting period, if the result would be dilutive, are assumed to be outstanding
for purposes of determining net income per diluted common share as of the later of the beginning of the period or
the grant date in accordance with ASC 260-10-45-48.

Derivative Instruments and Risk Management

Our derivative instruments consist of foreign currency exchange contracts as described below:

Cash Flow Hedges

We utilize foreign currency exchange forward contracts to hedge foreign currency exchange exposures related to
forecasted operating expenses denominated in Indian rupees. These derivative instruments are designated and
qualify as cash flow hedges and in general, closely match the underlying forecasted transactions in duration. The
changes in fair value of these contracts are reported as a component of OCI and reclassified to operating expense
in the periods of payment of the hedged operating expenses. We measure the effectiveness of hedges of
forecasted transactions by comparing the fair value of the designated foreign currency exchange forward
purchase contracts with the fair values of the forecasted transactions. The ineffective portion of the derivative
hedging gain or loss, as well as changes in the derivative time value (which is excluded from the assessment of
hedge effectiveness), are recognized as a component of interest income and other income (expense), net.

Balance Sheet Hedges

We utilize foreign currency exchange forward and option contracts to hedge against the short-term impact of
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to certain foreign-currency-denominated monetary assets and
liabilities, primarily consisting of Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Israeli shekel, Australian dollar, Japanese
yen, Chinese renminbi, and Euro-denominated intercompany balances; Brazilian real, British pound sterling,
Australian dollar, Israeli shekel, and Euro-denominated trade receivables; and British pound sterling, Indian
rupee, and Euro-denominated other net monetary assets. These derivative instruments are not designated for
hedge accounting treatment since there is a natural offset for the remeasurement of the underlying foreign
currency denominated asset or liability. We recognize changes in the fair value of non-designated derivative
instruments in earnings in the period of change. Gains and losses on foreign currency forward contracts used to
hedge balance sheet exposures are recognized in interest income and other income (expense), net, in the same
period as the remeasurement gain or loss of the related foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

Factors that could have an impact on the effectiveness of our balance sheet and cash flow hedging program
include the accuracy of forecasts and the volatility of foreign currency markets. These programs reduce, but do
not entirely eliminate, the impact of currency exchange movements. The maturities of these instruments are
generally less than one year. Currently, we do not enter into any foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge
exposures related to firm commitments or nonmarketable investments. We do not have any leveraged derivatives,
nor do we use derivative contracts for speculative purposes. The related cash flow impacts of our derivative
contracts are reflected as cash flows from operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Variable Interest Entities

In accordance with the Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”) sub-section of ASC 810, Consolidation, we perform a
formal assessment at each reporting period regarding whether any consolidated entity is considered the primary
beneficiary of a VIE based on the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic
performance of the entity and the obligation to absorb losses or rights to receive benefits that could be significant
to us. We do not have any arrangements that meet the definition of a VIE.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Debt Issuance Costs. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt
Issuance Costs, which is effective in the first quarter of 2016. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs
related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying
amount of that debt, which is consistent with the presentation of debt discounts and premiums. Retrospective
application is required, which resulted in the reclassification of $5.8 million of debt issuance costs from other
current assets and other assets to a direct reduction of our 7.5% Convertible Senior Notes, net, due 2019
(“Notes”) in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015.

Inventory Valuation. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,
which is effective in the first quarter of 2017. ASU 2015-11 requires that inventory be valued at the lower of cost
or net realizable value, which is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less
reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. We currently value inventory at the
lower of cost or net realizable value less a reasonable profit margin as allowed by the current inventory valuation
guidance. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 is expected to increase our inventory valuation in 2017.

Measurement Period Adjustments. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the
Accounting for Measurement Period Adjustments. The acquirer of a business is required to retrospectively adjust
provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill. Those
adjustments are required when new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the
acquisition date and, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts initially recognized or
would have resulted in the recognition of additional assets or liabilities. Under current guidance, the acquirer also
must revise comparative prior period information, including depreciation, amortization, or other income affects
as a result of changes made to provisional amounts. To simplify the accounting for measurement period
adjustments, ASU 2015-16 eliminates the requirement to retrospectively account for those adjustments. The
impact on our financial statements will be determined in the future if measurement period adjustments are
identified.

Lease Arrangements. Under current guidance, the classification of a lease by a lessee as either an operating
lease or a capital lease determines whether an asset and liability is recognized on the balance sheet. ASU
2016-02, issued in February 2016 and effective in the first quarter of 2019, requires that a lessee recognize an
asset and liability on its balance sheet related to all leases with terms in excess of one year. For all leases, a lessee

104

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

will be required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of
the lease payments, in the statement of financial position. The right-to-use asset represents the right to use the
underlying asset during the lease term.

The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows by a lessee have not significantly
changed from previous guidance. There continues to be a differentiation between finance leases and operating
leases. The criteria for determining whether a lease is a financing or operating lease are substantially the same as
existing guidance except that the “bright line” percentages have been removed.

•

•

For finance leases, interest is recognized on the lease liability separately from depreciation of the
right-of-use asset in the statement of operations. Principal repayments are classified within financing
activities and interest payments are classified as operating activities in the statement of cash flows.

For operating leases, a lessee is required to recognize lease expense generally on a straight-line basis.
All operating lease payments are classified as operating activities in the statement of cash flows.

The current build-to-suit lease accounting guidance will be rescinded by the new guidance, although simplified
guidance will remain regarding lessee control during the construction period. Consequently, the accounting for
build-to-suit leases will be the same as finance leases unless the lessee control provisions are applicable.

We have not quantified the impact, but we expect our consolidated financial position and results of operations to
be materially effected.

Principal vs Agent. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Principal vs. Agent Considerations
(Reporting Revenue Gross vs Net), streamlining and clarifying the criteria for identifying whether an entity is
satisfying a performance obligation as the principal or agent in the transaction. The entity that is responsible for
fulfilling the contractual obligations related to the good or service is acting as the principal and recognizes the
gross amount of consideration. The entity that is responsible only for arranging delivery to the customer is acting
as the agent and recognizes revenue in the amount of the fee or commission related to arranging for the delivery
of the good or service.

A number of indicators of the nature of the relationship that are considered under current guidance have been
streamlined and clarified in the new guidance by focusing more specifically on the performance obligations that
must be fulfilled in the transaction, which entity carries the inventory risk in the transaction, and which entity
controls the pricing of the good or service. Credit risk will no longer be a criterion. This guidance will be
effective in the first quarter of 2018. We are evaluating its impact on our revenue and results of operations.

Stock-based Compensation. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, which is effective in the first
quarter of 2017 with early adoption permitted. We elected to early adopt this standard in the second quarter of
2016, which required retroactive application of this standard as of the first quarter in 2016 resulting in the
following:

•

•

Under the new guidance, all excess tax benefits and deficiencies are recognized as income tax expense.
Excess tax benefits of less than $0.1 million that were charged to additional paid-in capital in the first
quarter of 2016 were reversed upon adoption. We recorded $2.2 million of deferred tax assets related to
excess tax benefits for federal research and development income tax credits not previously benefitted.

The requirement to reclassify gross excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation from
operating to financing activities in the statement of cash flows is eliminated. The reclassification of
$0.2 million in the first quarter of 2016 has been reversed upon adoption. We applied this guidance
retrospectively to all prior periods to maintain the comparability of presentation between periods,
which resulted in a $3.3 million increase in cash flows provided by operating activities during the year
ended December 31, 2015, and a corresponding decrease in cash flows provided by financing activities.

105

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

• We have elected to account for forfeitures when they occur instead of estimating the expected

forfeiture rate. Adoption of this provision during the second quarter resulted in a retroactive net income
adjustment of $0.2 million, net of tax effect, in the first quarter of 2016 and a cumulative effect
adjustment to retained earnings of $2.1 million, net of tax, as of January 1, 2016.

•

Statutory tax withholding will be permitted up to the maximum statutory tax rate in applicable
jurisdictions. The retrospective impact of this provision on prior period financial statements is not
material.

Financial Instruments. In June 2016, the FABS issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on
Financial Instruments, amending current guidance regarding other-than-temporary impairment of
available-for-sale debt securities. The new guidance requires an estimate of the expected credit loss when fair
value is below the amortized cost of the asset without regard for the length of time that the fair value has been
below the amortized cost or the historical or implied volatility of the asset. Credit losses on available-for-sale
debt securities will be limited to the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value. The
use of an allowance to record estimated credit losses (and subsequent recoveries) will also be required under the
new guidance.

ASU 2016-13 will be effective in the first quarter of 2020. We are evaluating its impact on the carrying value of
our available-for-sale securities and results of operations.

Settlement of Convertible Debt. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows:
Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, requiring that cash settlements of principal amounts
of debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the
debt must classify the portion of the principal payment attributable to the accreted interest related to the debt
discount as cash outflows from operating activities. This is consistent with the classification of the coupon
interest payments.

ASU 2016-15 will be effective in the first quarter of 2018. Accordingly, $63.6 million debt discount attributable
to the difference between the 0.75% coupon interest rate on our Notes and the 4.98% (5.46% inclusive of debt
issuance costs) effective interest rate will be classified as an operating cash outflow in the Consolidated
Statement of Cash Flows upon cash settlement in 2019.

Restricted Cash. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash,
requiring that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash
equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts
generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash
equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of
cash flows.

ASU 2016-18 will be effective in the first quarter of 2018. We are evaluating its impact on our statement of cash
flows.

Revenue Recognition. ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, issued in May 2014, enhances
the comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets.
The principles-based guidance provides a framework for addressing revenue recognition issues comprehensively.
The standard requires that revenue should be recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that the
entity expects to be entitled in exchange for goods or services, which are referred to as performance obligations.

106

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

The guidance requires comprehensive annual and interim disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and
uncertainty of recognized revenue. Qualitative and quantitative disclosures will be required regarding:

•

•

•

contracts with customers, including revenue and impairments recognized, disaggregation, and
information about contract balances and performance obligations,

significant judgments and changes in judgments required to determine the transaction price, amounts
allocated to performance obligations, and the timing for recognizing revenue resulting from the
satisfaction of performance obligations, and

assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract.

ASU 2014-09 will be effective in the first quarter of 2018. Two adoption methods are allowed under ASU
2014-09. Under the full retrospective method, the revised guidance is applied to all contracts in all reporting
periods presented in the financial statements, subject to certain allowable exceptions. Retained earnings is
adjusted for the cumulative effect of the change as of January 1, 2016. Under the modified retrospective method,
the revised guidance is applied to all contracts existing as of January 1, 2018, with an adjustment to beginning
retained earnings for the cumulative effect of the change and providing additional disclosures comparing results
to previous guidance. We continue to evaluate the available adoption methods.

Upon initial evaluation, we believe the key changes in the guidance that impact our revenue recognition relate to
the allocation of contract revenues between various services and software licenses, and the timing of when those
revenues are recognized. The requirement to defer incremental contract acquisition costs and recognize them
over the contract period or expected customer life will result in the recognition of a deferred charge on our
balance sheet. We are currently assessing the impact of these requirements on our consolidated financial
statements upon adoption.

common shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding common stock options having a dilutive effect
using the treasury stock method, non-vested shares of restricted stock having a dilutive effect, non-vested
restricted stock for which the performance criteria have been met, shares to be purchased under our ESPP having

various dates during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 based on achievement of specified
performance criteria related to revenue, cash flows from operating activities, and non-GAAP operating income

Potential shares of common stock that are not included in the determination of diluted net income per share
because they are anti-dilutive for the periods presented consist of ESPP purchase rights having an anti-dilutive
effect of less than 0.1 million shares for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 and the assumed
vesting of RSUs having an anti-dilutive effect of less than 0.1 million shares for the year ended December 31,

income per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive since the conversion price of the Notes and the
strike price of the Warrants exceeded the average market price of our common stock. We have the option to pay
cash, issue shares of common stock, or any combination thereof for the aggregate amount due upon conversion of
the Notes. Our intent is to settle the principal amount of the Notes in cash upon conversion. As a result, only
amounts payable in excess of the principal amount of the Notes are considered in diluted net income per share
under the treasury stock method. The Note Hedges are also not included in the calculation of diluted net income
per share because the effect of any exercise of the Note Hedges would be anti-dilutive. Please refer to Note 7—
Convertible Senior Notes, Note Hedges, and Warrants of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for
additional information.

Note 3: Business Acquisitions

We acquired Optitex Ltd. (“Optitex”) and Rialco Limited (“Rialco”) during 2016, which have been included in
our Productivity Software and Industrial Inkjet operating segments, respectively. Post-acquisition revenue was
$19.8 million in 2016 related to these two acquisitions. We acquired Reggiani and Matan during 2015, which has
been included in our Industrial Inkjet operating segment, and two business process automation businesses, which
have been included in our Productivity Software operating segment. Post-acquisition revenue was $88.4 million
in 2015 related to these four acquisitions. We acquired four business process automation businesses during 2014,
which have been included in our Productivity Software operating segment. Acquisition-related transaction costs
were $2.2, $5.5, and $1.5 million during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

These acquisitions were accounted for as purchase business combinations. We allocated the purchase price to the
tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of their estimated fair
value on their respective acquisition dates. Excess purchase consideration was recorded as goodwill. Factors
contributing to a purchase price that results in goodwill include, but are not limited to, the retention of research
and development personnel with skills to develop future technology, manufacturing capacity in the Industrial
Inkjet operating segment, support personnel to provide maintenance services related to the products, a trained
sales force capable of selling current and future products, the opportunity to cross-sell products of the acquired
businesses to existing customers, the positive reputation of each of these businesses in the market, the
opportunity to sell our Productivity Software Suite to customers of the acquired businesses, the opportunity to
expand our presence in the digital inkjet textile printing market through the acquisition of the Reggiani digital
inkjet textile printer business, and the synergy of Optitex technology with Reggiani digital inkjet textile printers.
Rialco’s technical and commercial capabilities benefit the Industrial Inkjet operating segment in the sourcing,
specification, and purification of high quality dyes and expand our research, development, and innovation base to
develop ink for the signage, ceramic, and packaging markets.

We engaged a third party valuation firm to aid management in its analyses of the fair value of these acquired
businesses. All estimates, key assumptions, and forecasts were either provided by or reviewed by us. While we
chose to utilize a third party valuation firm, the fair value analyses and related valuations represent the
conclusions of management and not the conclusions or statements of any third party.

The purchase price allocations for the 2016 purchase business combinations are preliminary and subject to
change within the respective measurement periods as valuations are finalized. We expect to continue to obtain
information to assist us in finalizing the fair value of the net assets acquired during the respective measurement
periods, which end at various dates in 2017. Measurement period adjustments will be recognized in the reporting
period in which the adjustment amounts are determined.

2016 Acquisitions

Industrial Inkjet Operating Segment

Rialco, a private limited liability company incorporated in England and Wales and headquartered in Bradford,
U.K., was acquired on March 1, 2016. Rialco has been included in the Industrial Inkjet operating segment.

We purchased Rialco for cash consideration of $8.4 million, net of cash acquired, plus an additional potential
future cash earnout, which is contingent on achieving certain revenue and gross profit performance targets over
three consecutive 12-month periods. Rialco is a leading European supplier of dye powders and color products for
the textile, digital print, and other decorating industries. Rialco’s pure disperse dyes are particularly important in
the manufacture of high-quality dye sublimation inkjet inks for textile applications, which is a key growth area in
the global migration from analog to digital print.

The fair value of the earnout related to the Rialco acquisition is estimated to be $2.3 million at December 31,
2016, by applying the income approach in accordance with ASC 805-30-25-5, adjusted for the impact of post-
acquisition foreign currency translation changes. Key assumptions include a risk-free discount rate of 0.8% and
probability-adjusted revenue and gross profit levels. Probability-adjusted revenue and gross profit are significant
inputs that are not observable in the market, which ASC 820-10-35 refers to as Level 3 inputs. This contingent
liability is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016, as a current and noncurrent
liability of $1.2 and $1.1 million, respectively, with the first payment due in the third quarter of 2017, if earned.
In accordance with ASC 805-30-35-1, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration subsequent to the
acquisition date are recognized in general and administrative expenses.

Productivity Software Segment

Optitex, a privately-held Israeli company headquartered in Rosh Ha’Ayin, Israel, was acquired on June 16, 2016.
Optitex has been included in the Productivity Software operating segment.

We purchased Optitex for cash consideration of $11.6 million, net of cash acquired, plus an additional potential
future cash earnout, which is contingent on achieving certain revenue and operating profit performance targets
over three consecutive 12-month periods. Optitex has developed and markets integrated 2D and 3D CAD
software that is shortening the design cycle, reducing our customers’ costs, and accelerating the adoption of fast
fashion.

The fair value of the earnout related to the Optitex acquisition is estimated to be $24.4 million at December 31,
2016, by applying the income approach in accordance with ASC 805-30-25-5, adjusted for the impact of post-
acquisition foreign currency translation changes. Key assumptions include a risk-free discount rate of 2.3% and
probability-adjusted revenue and operating profit levels. Probability-adjusted revenue and operating profit are
significant inputs that are not observable in the market, which ASC 820-10-35 refers to as Level 3 inputs. This
contingent liability is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016, as a current and
noncurrent liability of $8.4 and $16.0 million, respectively, with the first payment due in the fourth quarter of
2017, if earned. In accordance with ASC 805-30-35-1, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration
subsequent to the acquisition date are recognized in general and administrative expenses.

2015 Acquisitions

Industrial Inkjet Operating Segment

On July 1, 2015, we acquired privately-held Reggiani, a societa per azioni headquartered in Bergamo, Italy, and
privately-held Matan, an Israeli company headquartered in Rosh Ha’Ayin, Israel, which have been included in
the Industrial Inkjet operating segment.

110

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

We purchased Matan for cash consideration of approximately $38.9 million, net of cash acquired. Matan super-
wide format digital inkjet roll-to-roll printers, including advanced material handling features such as in-line
cutting and slitting, expand our offerings in this market.

We purchased Reggiani for cash consideration of approximately $26.6 million, net of cash acquired, the issuance
of 0.6 million shares of EFI common stock valued at $26.9 million, plus a potential future cash earnout, which is
contingent on achieving certain revenue and earnings before interest and tax (“EBIT”) performance targets over
consecutive 18 and 12-month periods. Reggiani industrial digital inkjet textile printers address the full scope
of advanced textile printing with versatile printers suitable for pigmented, reactive dye, acid dye, and water-based
dispersed printing ink. This acquisition expands our presence in the digital inkjet textile printing market.

The fair value of the earnout related to the Reggiani acquisition is estimated to be $22.8 million at December 31,
2016, by applying the income approach in accordance with ASC 805-30-25-5, which is net of an earnout
payment, which was accelerated into 2016 of $23.8 million. Key assumptions include a risk-free discount rate of
4.98%, a probability-adjusted revenue level, and probability-adjusted EBIT. Probability-adjusted revenue and
EBIT are significant inputs that are not observable in the market, which ASC 820-10-35, refers to as Level 3
inputs. This contingent liability is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016, as a
current and noncurrent liability of $7.1 and $15.7 million, respectively.

Productivity Software Operating Segment

We acquired privately-held CTI and Shuttleworth, which have been included in our Productivity Software
operating segment, for aggregate cash consideration of $9.3 million, net of cash acquired, the issuance of
0.2 million shares of EFI common stock valued at $9.7 million, plus a potential future cash earnout, which is
contingent on achieving certain performance targets.

CTI, a California limited liability company headquartered in San Diego, California, was acquired on October 6,
2015 and provides manufacturing execution software for the corrugated packaging industry, including business
and management capabilities, with a customer base including sheet feeders, sheet plants, and full corrugated box
plants.

Shuttleworth, a private limited liability company incorporated in England and Wales and headquartered in
Kettering, U.K., was acquired on November 4, 2015, and provides business process automation solutions to the
signage and packaging digital print industries. Support and operations of Shuttleworth were included in the
Productivity Software operating segment, which provides Pace, Monarch, and Radius products to the
Shuttleworth customer base, while continuing to support existing Shuttleworth customers.

The fair value of the CTI and Shuttleworth earnouts are estimated to be $6.8 million at December 31, 2016, by
applying the income approach in accordance with ASC 805-30-25-5. Key assumptions include risk-free discount
rates of 0.6% to 1.3% and probability-adjusted revenue levels. Probability-adjusted revenue is a significant input
that is not observable in the market, which ASC 820-10-35, refers to as a Level 3 input. This contingent liability
is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016, as a current and noncurrent liability of
$2.4 and $4.4 million, respectively.

2014 Acquisitions

Productivity Software Operating Segment

We acquired privately-held SmartLinc, Rhapso, DirectSmile, and DIMS, which have been included in our
Productivity Software operating segment, for aggregate cash consideration of $20.4 million, net of cash acquired,

plus additional potential future cash earnouts, which were contingent on achieving certain performance targets.
Earnout payments related to the 2014 acquisitions were $4.0 and $0.3 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015,
respectively.

SmartLinc, a Wisconsin corporation headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was acquired on January 16, 2014,
and provides business process automation software for shipping and logistics operations.

Rhapso, a societe anonyme organized under French law headquartered in Les Ulis, France, was acquired on
April 14, 2014, and provides printing, packaging, and scheduling software to European customers in the
corrugated packaging market sector.

DirectSmile, a limited liability company under German law headquartered in Berlin, Germany, was acquired on
July 18, 2014, and provides software solutions for variable data printing, cross media marketing automation, and
image personalization technologies.

DIMS, a limited liability company under Dutch law headquartered in Lichtenvoorde, Netherlands, was acquired
on September 15, 2014, and is a leading supplier of business process automation software for high end,
multilingual, and multi-national print and packaging companies with a large portion of its installed base in
Europe.

Valuation Methodologies

Intangible assets acquired in 2016, 2015, and 2014 consist of customer relationships, trade names, existing
technology, backlog, and IPR&D. Each intangible asset valuation methodology for each acquisition assumes
discount rates between 16% and 30%.

Customer Relationships and Backlog were valued using the excess earnings method, which is an income
approach. The value of customer relationships lies in the generation of a consistent and predictable revenue
source and the avoidance of costs associated with developing the relationships. Customer relationships were
valued by estimating the revenue attributable to existing customer relationships and probability-weighting each
forecast year to reflect the uncertainty of maintaining existing relationships based on historical attrition rates.

Backlog represents unfulfilled customer purchase orders at the acquisition date that will provide a relatively
secure revenue stream, subject only to potential customer cancellation.

Trade Names were valued using the relief from royalty method, which is an income approach, with royalty rates
based on various factors including an analysis of market data, comparable trade name agreements, and
consideration of historical advertising dollars spent supporting the trade name.

Existing Technology was valued using the relief from royalty method based on royalty rates for similar
technologies. The value of existing technology is derived from consistent and predictable revenue, including the
opportunity to cross-sell to existing customers and the avoidance of the costs associated with developing the
technology. Revenue related to existing technology was adjusted in each forecast year to reflect the evolution of
the technology and the cost of sustaining research and development required to maintain the technology.

Rialco existing technology was valued using the cost approach. The value of existing technology is estimated
based on the historical time and cost to develop the technology, the estimated man-years required to recreate the
technology, historical employee compensation and benefits, and a reasonable mark-up based on profit for
companies with similar operations.

112

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

IPR&D was valued using the relief from royalty method by estimating the cost to develop purchased IPR&D
into commercially viable products, estimating the net cash flows resulting from the sale of those products, and
discounting the net cash flows back to their present value. Project schedules were based on management’s
estimate of tasks completed and tasks to be completed to achieve technical and commercial feasibility.

The initial preliminary purchase price allocations were adjusted by $0.8, $3.8, and $0.2 million during 2016,
2015, and 2014, respectively, primarily related to certain current assets and deferred tax liabilities. Pro forma
results of operations for Optitex and Rialco have not been presented because their pre-acquisition revenue and
net income are not material to our Consolidated Results of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and intangible assets acquired
is not deductible for tax purposes with the exception of Optitex and Matan. Goodwill that was generated by our
acquisitions of Optitex and Matan is deductible for U.S. tax purposes, but is not deductible for tax purposes in
Israel. Pre-acquisition goodwill acquired in the Rhapso acquisition is deductible in Germany.

Rialco generates revenue and incurs operating expenses primarily in British pounds sterling. Upon consideration
of the salient economic indicators discussed in ASC 830-10-55-5, we consider the British pounds sterling to be
the functional currency for Rialco.

Optitex generates revenue and incurs operating expenses primarily in local currencies. Upon consideration of the
salient economic indicators, we consider the local currency in each of Optitex’s primary locations (shekel, rupee,
Euro, and U.S. dollar) to be the functional currencies for Optitex.

We lease approximately 59,000 square feet in Fremont, California, under a 15-year lease agreement. The leased
facility was a cold shell requiring additional build-out and tenant improvements. As explained in Note 8—
Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, we are deemed to be the
accounting owner of the facility. The capitalized cost under the build-to-suit lease was $10.3 and $10.6 million as
of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, based on the estimated replacement cost, including capitalized
interest, which has been reduced by accumulated depreciation.

Acquired customer relationships and other, existing technology, and trademarks and trade names are amortized
over their estimated useful lives of two to sixteen years using the straight-line method, which approximates the
pattern in which the economic benefits of the identified intangible assets are realized. The useful life of certain
developed technology was reduced during 2016 based on a re-assessment of the useful life of the technology with
a $1.6 million impact on amortization expense. No changes have been made to the useful lives of amortizable
identifiable intangible assets in 2015 or 2014. Aggregate amortization expense was $39.6, $26.5, and
$20.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

IPR&D is subject to amortization after product completion over the product life or otherwise assessed for
impairment in accordance with acquisition accounting guidance.

As of December 31, 2016, future estimated amortization expense for each of the next five years and thereafter
related to the amortization of identified intangible assets is as follows (in thousands):

Goodwill Assessment

ASU 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (ASC 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, provides that a
simplified analysis of goodwill impairment may be performed consisting of a qualitative assessment to determine
whether further impairment testing is necessary. Due to the significant additions to goodwill resulting from the
business combinations completed during 2016 and 2015 and because our reporting units are susceptible to fair
value fluctuations, we determined that the quantitative analysis should be performed.

A two-step impairment test of goodwill is required by ASC 350-20-35. In the first step, the fair value of each
reporting unit is compared to its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds carrying value, goodwill is not impaired
and further testing is not required. If the carrying value exceeds fair value, then the second step of the impairment
test is required to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The implied fair value of
goodwill is calculated by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit,
excluding goodwill, from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in the first step. If the carrying value
of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then an impairment loss must be recorded equal to
the difference.

Our goodwill valuation analysis is based on our respective reporting units (Industrial Inkjet, Productivity
Software, and Fiery), which are consistent with our operating segments identified in Note 14—Segment
Information, Geographic Regions, and Major Customers of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We
determined the fair value of our reporting units as of December 31, 2016 by equally weighting the market and
income approaches. Under the market approach, we estimated fair value based on market multiples of revenue or
earnings of comparable companies. Under the income approach, we estimated fair value based on a projected
cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk
inherent in our current business model. Based on our valuation results, we have determined that the fair values of
our Industrial Inkjet, Productivity Software, and Fiery reporting units exceed their carrying values by $575, $444,
and $515 million, respectively, or 151%, 267%, and 533%, respectively.

To identify suitable comparable companies under the market approach, consideration was given to the financial
condition and operating performance of the reporting unit being evaluated relative to companies operating in the
same or similar businesses, potentially subject to corresponding economic, environmental, and political factors
and considered to be reasonable investment alternatives. Consideration was given to the investment
characteristics of the subject companies relative to those of similar publicly traded companies (i.e., guideline
companies), which are actively traded. In applying the Public Company Market Multiple Method, valuation
multiples were derived from historical and projected operating data of guideline companies and applied to the
appropriate operating data of our reporting units to arrive at an indication of fair value. Five suitable guideline
companies were identified for the Industrial Inkjet, reporting unit. Six suitable guideline companies were
identified for the Productivity Software and Fiery reporting units, respectively.

As part of this process, we engaged a third party valuation firm to assist management in its analysis. All
estimates, key assumptions, and forecasts were either provided by or reviewed by us. While we chose to utilize a
third party valuation firm, the impairment analysis and related valuations represent the conclusions of
management and not the conclusions or statements of any third party.

Solely for purposes of establishing inputs for the income approach to assess the fair value of the Industrial Inkjet,
Productivity Software, and Fiery reporting units, we made the following assumptions:

•

Industrial Inkjet revenue growth of 26% in 2016 exceeded historical normalized growth rates for the
Industrial Inkjet operating segment due to the Reggiani, Matan, and Rialco acquisitions.

117

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

•

•

Productivity Software revenue growth of 12% in 2016 approximated historical normalized growth rates
for the Productivity Software operating segment.

Fiery revenue declined by 7% in 2016 primarily due to weak APAC demand, especially in China,
reduced end user demand associated with the Drupa trade show in June 2016, which occurs every four
years, caused by end users delaying purchasing decisions until new printer models are available, and
decreased sales to one significant printer manufacturer purchasing less inventory. Fiery revenue growth
of 2% to 3% is assumed in the forecast horizon as printer distributor / manufacturer inventories and end
user demand return to normal levels and APAC demand recovers.

• Despite ongoing economic uncertainty, our reporting units’ revenue is assumed to grow at historical

normalized rates between 2017 and 2022 for the following primary reasons:

O Our Industrial Inkjet revenue is positioned to outpace the slow economy due to the ongoing
transition from solvent-based to UV curable-based printing and from UV curing to UV/LED
curing. This transition is expected to continue through the forecast horizon.

O Our acquisitions of Rialco in 2016 and Reggiani and Matan in 2015 will enable us to continue to
achieve historical normalized Industrial Inkjet revenue growth rates through the forecast horizon.

O Our acquisitions of Optitex in 2016 and CTI and Shuttleworth in 2015 will enable us to continue
to achieve historical normalized Productivity Software revenue growth rates through the forecast
horizon.

O Our acquisition strategy in the Productivity Software reporting unit will enable us to achieve
historical normalized revenue growth rates through the forecast horizon. Our intention is to
continue to explore additional acquisition opportunities in this operating segment to further
consolidate the business process automation and cloud-based order entry and order management
software industries.

O Long-term industry growth after 2022.

O Gross profit percentages will approximate historical average levels in the Industrial Inkjet,

Productivity Software and Fiery reporting units.

Our discounted cash flow projections are six-year financial forecasts, which were based on annual financial
forecasts developed internally by management for use in managing our business and through discussions with the
valuation firm engaged by us. The significant assumptions utilized in these conservative six-year financial
forecasts included consolidated annual revenue growth rates ranging from 6% to 10% which equates to a
consolidated compound annual growth rate of 8%. The upper end of the range exceeds our historical normalized
growth rates due to the addition of the Reggiani textile and Optitex software businesses to our portfolio. Future
cash flows were discounted to present value using a mid-year convention and a consolidated discount rate of
10%. Terminal values were calculated using the Gordon growth methodology with a consolidated long-term
growth rate of 4%, except for Fiery at 2.5%. The sum of the fair values of the Industrial Inkjet, Productivity
Software, and Fiery reporting units was reconciled to our current market capitalization (based on our stock price)
plus an estimated control premium. Percentages of revenue over the six-year forecast horizon were compared to
approximate percentages realized by the guideline companies. To assess the reasonableness of the estimated
control premium of 13.2%, we examined the most similar transactions in relevant industries and determined the
average premium indicated by the transactions deemed to be most similar to a hypothetical transaction involving
our reporting units. We examined the weighted average and median control premiums offered in relevant
industries, industry specific control premiums, and specific transaction control premiums to conclude that our
estimated control premium is reasonable.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

We assess the impairment of identifiable intangibles and long-lived assets whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable or the life of the asset may need to be revised.
Factors considered important that could trigger an impairment review include:

•

•

•

•

•

•

significant negative industry or economic trends,

significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period,

our market capitalization relative to net book value,

significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets,

significant changes in the strategy for our overall business, and

our assessment of growth and profitability in each reporting unit over the coming years.

Given the uncertainty of the economic environment and the potential impact on our business, there can be no
assurance that our estimates and assumptions regarding the duration of the ongoing economic downturn, or the
period or strength of recovery, made for purposes of our goodwill impairment testing at December 31, 2016 will
prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding forecasted revenue or gross profit
rates are not achieved, we may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods
relating to any of our reporting units, whether in connection with the next annual impairment testing in the fourth
quarter of 2017 or prior to that, if any such change constitutes an interim triggering event. It is not possible to
determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be
material.

Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate potential impairment with respect to long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable. No asset impairment charges were recognized during the
years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, or 2014.

Note 6: Investments and Fair Value Measurements

We invest our excess cash on deposit with major banks in money market, U.S. Treasury and government-
sponsored entity, corporate, municipal government, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed residential securities. By
policy, we invest primarily in high-grade marketable securities. We are exposed to credit risk in the event of
default by the financial institutions or issuers of these investments to the extent of amounts recorded in our
Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of
purchase to be cash equivalents. Typically, the cost of these investments has approximated fair value. Marketable
investments with a maturity greater than three months are classified as available-for-sale short-term investments.
Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate
component of OCI, adjusted for deferred income taxes. The credit portion of any other-than-temporary
impairment is included in net income. Realized gains and losses on sales of financial instruments are recognized
upon sale of the investments using the specific identification method.

For fixed income securities that have unrealized losses as of December 31, 2016, we have determined that we do
not have the intent to sell any of these investments and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to
sell any of these investments before recovery of the entire amortized cost basis. We have evaluated these fixed
income securities and determined that no credit losses exist. Accordingly, management has determined that the
unrealized losses on our fixed income securities as of December 31, 2016 were temporary in nature.

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820 identifies fair value as the exchange price, or exit price, representing the amount that would be received
to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As a basis for
considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair
value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1: Inputs that are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting
entity has the ability to access at the measurement date;

Level 2: Inputs that are other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are either directly or indirectly
observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date for the
duration of the instrument’s anticipated life or by comparison to similar instruments; and

Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable or that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants
would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. These include management’s own
judgments about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the
circumstances.

We utilize the market approach to measure the fair value of our fixed income securities. The market approach is a
valuation technique that uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving
identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The fair value of our fixed income securities is obtained using
readily-available market prices from a variety of industry standard data providers, large financial institutions, and
other third-party sources for the identical underlying securities. The fair value of our investments in certain
money market funds is expected to maintain a Net Asset Value of $1 per share and, as such, is priced at the
expected market price.

We obtain the fair value of our Level 2 financial instruments from several third party asset managers, custodian
banks, and the accounting service providers. Independently, these service providers use professional pricing
services to gather pricing data, which may include quoted market prices for identical or comparable instruments
or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly. As part of this process, we
engaged a pricing service to assist management in its pricing analysis and assessment of other-than-temporary
impairment. All estimates, key assumptions, and forecasts were either provided by or reviewed by us. While we
chose to utilize a third party pricing service, the impairment analysis and related valuations represent conclusions
of management and not conclusions or statements of any third party.

Money market funds consist of $23.6 and $13.2 million, which have been classified as cash equivalents as of
December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Corporate debt securities include $0.7 million, which have been
classified as cash equivalents at December 31, 2015.

Investments are generally classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued
using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency.
Investments in U.S. Treasury obligations and overnight money market mutual funds have been classified as
Level 1 because these securities are valued based on quoted prices in active markets or are actively traded at
$1.00 Net Asset Value. There have been no transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the years ended
December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Government agency investments and corporate debt instruments, including investments in asset-backed and
mortgage-backed securities, have generally been classified as Level 2 because markets for these securities are

SmartLinc in 2014; Metrix, GamSys, and PrintLeader Software (“PrintLeader”) in 2013; and Technique in 2012.

The fair value of these earnouts is estimated to be $56.5 and $54.8 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015,
respectively, by applying the income approach in accordance with ASC 805-30-25-5. Key assumptions include
risk-free discount rates between 0.6% and 4.98% (Monte Carlo valuation method) and discount rates between
4.2% and 6.0% (probability-adjusted method), as well as probability-adjusted revenue and EBIT levels.
Probability-adjusted revenue, gross margin, and EBIT are significant inputs that are not observable in the market,
which ASC 820-10-35 refers to as Level 3 inputs. These contingent liabilities have been reflected in the
Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016 as current and noncurrent liabilities of $19.3 and
$37.2 million, respectively.

The fair value of contingent consideration increased by $6.8 million, including $2.7 million of earnout interest
accretion during the year ended December 31, 2016 related to all acquisitions. The Rialco, Optitex, Reggiani,
DirectSmile, and CTI earnout performance probabilities increased while the DIMS and Shuttleworth earnout
performance probabilities decreased or were not achieved in 2016. The fair value of contingent consideration
decreased by $2.1 million, net of $1.4 million of earnout interest accretion during the year ended December 31,
2016 related to all acquisitions. The DIMS, DirectSmile, GamSys, and Metrix, earnout performance probability
percentages were reduced or not achieved in 2015. In accordance with ASC 805-30-35-1, changes in the fair
value of contingent consideration subsequent to the acquisition date have been recognized in general and
administrative expense.

Earnout payments during the year ended December 31, 2016 of $23.8, $3.6, $0.4, and $0.2 million are primarily
related to the previously accrued Reggiani, DirectSmile, SmartLinc, and Metrix contingent consideration
liabilities, respectively. Earnout payments during the year ended December 31, 2015 of $2.0, $1.1, $0.6, and
$0.3 million are primarily related to the previously accrued Technique, GamSys, Metrix, and SmartLinc
contingent consideration liabilities, respectively.

A narrative description of the sensitivity of recurring fair value measurements to changes in unobservable inputs
is required if a change in those inputs might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.
Since the most significant inputs to the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration liability are the
probability-adjusted revenue and discount rate, we reviewed the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to
changes in these inputs. We assessed the probability of achieving the revenue performance targets for the
contingent consideration associated with each acquisition at percentage levels between 50% and 100% as of each
respective acquisition date based on an assessment of the historical performance of each acquired entity, our
current expectations of future performance, and other relevant factors. A change in probability-adjusted revenue
of five percentage points from the level assumed in the current valuations would result in an increase in the fair
value of contingent consideration of $1.2 million or a decrease of $3.6 million resulting in a corresponding
adjustment to general and administrative expense. A change in the discount rate of one percentage point results in
an increase in the fair value of contingent consideration of $0.5 million or a decrease of $0.8 million. The
potential undiscounted amount of future contingent consideration cash payments that we could be required to
make related to our business acquisitions, beyond amounts currently accrued, is $14.6 million as of
December 31, 2016.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

We utilize the income approach to measure the fair value of our derivative assets and liabilities. The income
approach uses pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as yield curves, currency exchange
rates, and forward prices, and are therefore classified as Level 2 measurements. The notional amount of our
derivative assets and liabilities was $161.8 and $118.6 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
The fair value of our derivative assets and liabilities that were designated for cash flow hedge accounting
treatment having notional amounts of $3.2 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, was not
material.

Fair Value of Convertible Senior Notes

In September 2014, we issued $345 million aggregate principal amount of 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due
2019 (“Notes”). The Notes are carried at their original issuance value, net of unamortized debt discount, and are

124

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

not marked to market each period. The approximate fair value of the Notes as of December 31, 2016 was
approximately $355 million and was considered a Level 2 fair value measurement. Fair value was estimated
based upon actual quotations obtained at the end of the reporting period or the most recent date available. A
substantial portion of the market value of our Notes in excess of the outstanding principal amount relates to the
conversion premium.

Note 7: Convertible Senior Notes, Note Hedges, and Warrants

0.75% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019

In September 2014, we completed a private placement of $345 million principal amount of 0.75% Convertible
Senior Notes due 2019 (“Notes”). The Notes were sold to the initial purchasers for resale to qualified institutional
buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The net proceeds from this offering
were approximately $336.3 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ commissions and the offering
expenses paid by us. We used approximately $29.4 million of the net proceeds to purchase the Note Hedges
described below, net of the proceeds from the Warrant transactions also described below.

The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of EFI with interest payable semiannually in arrears on March 1 and
September 1 of each year, commencing March 1, 2015. The Notes are not callable and will mature on
September 1, 2019, unless previously purchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date.
Holders of the Notes who convert in connection with a “fundamental change,” as defined in the indenture
governing the Notes (“Indenture”), may require us to purchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes at a
purchase price equal to 100 percent of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any.

The initial conversion rate is 18.9667 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is
equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $52.72 per share of common stock. Upon conversion of
the Notes, holders will receive cash, shares of common stock or a combination thereof, at our election. Our intent
is to settle the principal amount of the Notes in cash upon conversion. If the conversion value exceeds the
principal amount, we would deliver shares of our common stock for our conversion obligation in excess of the
aggregate principal amount. As of December 31, 2016, none of the conditions allowing holders of the Notes to
convert had been met.

Throughout the term of the Notes, the conversion rate may be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events.
Holders of the Notes will not receive any cash payment representing accrued and unpaid interest upon conversion
of a Note. Holders may convert their Notes only under the following circumstances:

•

•

during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2014 (and
only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20
trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the
last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the
conversion price on each applicable trading day;

during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (“Notes Measurement
Period”) in which the “trading price” (as the term is defined in the Indenture) per $1,000 principal
amount of notes for each trading day of such Notes Measurement Period was less than 98% of the
product of the last reported stock price on such trading day and the conversion rate on each such
trading day;

•

upon the occurrence of specified corporate events; or

125

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

•

at any time on or after March 1, 2019 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day
immediately preceding the maturity date.

We separated the Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was
calculated by measuring the estimated fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible
feature. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the conversion option was determined by
deducting the fair value of the liability component from the face value of the Notes as a whole. The excess of the
principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) is amortized to interest
expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method with an effective interest rate of 4.98% per
annum (5.46% inclusive of debt issuance costs). The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues
to meet the conditions for equity classification.

We allocated the total transaction costs incurred by the Notes issuance to the liability and equity components
based on their relative values. Issuance costs of $7.0 million attributable to the $281.4 million liability
component are being amortized to expense over the term of the Notes, and issuance costs of $1.6 million
attributable to the $63.6 million equity component were offset against the equity component in stockholders’
equity. Additionally, we recorded a deferred tax liability of $23.7 million on the debt discount, which is not
deductible for tax purposes.

The Notes consist of the following at December 31, 2016 and 2015 (in thousands):

Note Hedges

We paid an aggregate of $63.9 million in convertible note hedge transactions with respect to our common stock
(“Note Hedges”) in September 2014. The Note Hedges will expire upon maturity of the Notes. The Note Hedges

126

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

are intended to offset the potential dilution upon conversion and/or offset any cash payments we are required to
make in excess of the principal amount upon conversion of the Notes in the event that the market value per share
of our common stock, as measured under the terms of the Note Hedges, is greater than the strike price of the Note
Hedges. The strike price of the Note Hedges initially correspond to the conversion price of the Notes and is
subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the conversion price of the Notes.
The Note Hedges are separate transactions and are not part of the Notes. Holders of the Notes will not have any
rights with respect to the Note Hedges.

Warrants

Concurrently with entering into the Note Hedges, we separately entered into warrant transactions (“Warrants”),
whereby we sold warrants to acquire shares of our common stock at a strike price of $68.86 per share. We
received aggregate proceeds of $34.5 million from the sale of the Warrants. If the average market value per share
of our common stock for the reporting period, as measured under the Warrants, exceeds the strike price of the
Warrants, the Warrants will have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share. The Warrants are separate
transactions and are not part of the Notes or the Note Hedges and are accounted for as a component of additional
paid-in capital. Holders of the Notes and Note Hedges will not have any rights with respect to the Warrants.

Note 8: Commitments and Contingencies

Contingent Consideration

We are required to make payments to the former stockholders of acquired companies based on the achievement
of specified performance targets as more fully explained in Note 6—Investments and Fair Value Measurements.

Purchase Commitments

We subcontract with other companies to manufacture our products. During the normal course of business, our
subcontractors procure components based on orders placed by us. If we cancel all or part of our orders, we may
still be liable to the subcontractors for the cost of the components they purchased to manufacture our products.
We periodically review the potential liability compared to the adequacy of the related allowance.

Lease Commitments

As of December 31, 2016, we lease certain of our current facilities under noncancellable operating lease
agreements. We are required to pay property taxes, insurance, and nominal maintenance costs for certain of these
facilities and any increases over the base year of these expenses on the remainder of our facilities.

Future minimum lease payments under noncancellable operating leases, including our build-to-suit lease, and

Rent expense was approximately $8.8, $8.0, and $6.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and
2014, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing

On August 26, 2016, we entered into a lease agreement and have accounted for a lease term of 48.5 years,
inclusive of two renewal options of 5.0 and 3.5 years, with the City of Manchester to lease 16.9 acres of land
adjacent to the Manchester Regional Airport. The land is subleased to BTMU during the term of the lease related
to the manufacturing facility that is being constructed on the site, which is described below. Minimum lease
payments are $13.1 million during the 48.5 year term of the land lease, excluding four months of the land lease
that is financed into the manufacturing facility lease.

On August 26, 2016, we entered into a six-year lease with BTMU whereby a 225,000 square foot manufacturing
and warehouse facility is under construction related to our super-wide format industrial digital inkjet printer
business in the Industrial Inkjet operating segment at a projected cost of $40 million and a construction period of
18 months. Minimum lease payments during the initial term are $1.8 million. Upon completion of the initial
term, we have the option to renew the lease, purchase the facility, or return the facility to BTMU subject to an
89% residual value guarantee under which we would recognize additional rent expense in the form of a variable
rent payment. We have assessed our exposure in relation to the residual value guarantee and believe that there is
no deficiency to the guaranteed value with respect to funds expended by BTMU as of December 31, 2016. We
are treated as the owner of the facility for federal income tax purposes.

The funds pledged under the lease represent 115% of the total expenditures made by BTMU through
December 31, 2016. The funds are invested in $5.1 and $1.2 million of U.S. government securities and cash
equivalents, respectively, with a third party trustee and will be restricted during the construction period. Upon
completion of construction, the funds will be released as cash and cash equivalents. The portion of released funds
that represents 100% of the total expenditures made by BTMU will be deposited with BTMU and restricted as
collateral until the end of the underlying lease period.

The funds pledged as collateral are invested in U.S. government securities and cash equivalents as of
December 31, 2016, and are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy as more fully defined in Note 6—
Investments and Fair Value Measurements. Net unrealized losses of less than $0.1 million were included in OCI
in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016.

We have applied the accounting and disclosure requirements set forth in ASC 810-10 for VIEs. We have
evaluated the BTMU lease agreement to determine if the arrangement qualifies as a VIE under ASC 810-10. We
have determined that the lease agreement does not qualify as a VIE and, as such, we are not required to
consolidate the VIE in our consolidated financial statements.

Assets Held for Sale

Management has approved a plan to sell approximately 5.6 acres of land and the office building located at 1340
Corporate Center Curve, Eagan, Minnesota, consisting of 43,682 square feet. We intend to enter into a lease
agreement with the purchaser of the facility whereby we will lease 22,000 square feet under a ten-year lease
agreement at market rental rates. The gain on the sale of the facility and land will be deferred over the lease term.

Assets held for sale of $3.8 million have been reclassified to other current assets as of December 31, 2016
consisting of $2.9 million net book value of the facility and $0.9 million of related land. Management expects the
sale and related lease-back to be completed in the next nine months.

128

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

Build-to-Suit Lease Arrangement

We entered into a 15-year lease agreement pursuant to which we leased approximately 59,000 square feet of a
building located in Fremont, California. The lease commenced on September 1, 2013. Minimum lease payments
are $18.5 million, net of full abatement of rent for the first three years of the lease term. During the initial lease
term, we also have certain rights of first refusal to (i) lease the remaining portion of the facility and/or
(ii) purchase the facility. This location contains the engineering, marketing, and administrative operations for our
Fiery operating segment. We relocated our former corporate headquarters to the adjacent building, which we
purchased during the fourth quarter of 2013.

The leased facility was a cold shell requiring additional build-out and tenant improvements. The landlord paid
the costs of the build-out up to $4.5 million, including all structural improvements, and we paid the costs of
tenant improvements beyond that amount. We paid $5.3 million of tenant improvements, including furniture and
equipment and capitalized interest. The landlord is responsible for costs related to force majeure events that
result in any damage to the facility. We were responsible for cost over-runs, if any, related to force majeure
events including strikes, war, and material availability. Since we were responsible for cost overruns related to
certain force majeure events, we were in substance offering an indemnification for events outside of our control.
As such, we are deemed to be the accounting owner of the facility. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, we have
capitalized $10.3 and $10.6 million, respectively, in property and equipment based on the estimated replacement
cost of the portion of the building that we occupy, including capitalized interest, reduced by accumulated
depreciation.

Monthly lease payments are allocated between the land element of the lease, which is accounted for as an
operating lease upon lease execution, and the imputed financing obligation. The imputed financing obligation is
being amortized upon lease commencement in accordance with the effective interest method using the interest
rate determined in accordance with the requirements of sale leaseback accounting. The imputed interest cost
incurred during the construction period was capitalized as a component of the construction cost upon lease
commencement. As of December 31, 2016, the imputed financing obligation in connection with the facility was
$14.2 million, including accrued interest, which was classified as a noncurrent imputed financing obligation in
our Consolidated Balance Sheet. If the requirements of sale leaseback accounting are satisfied, or at the end of
the initial lease term, we will reverse the net book value of the building and the corresponding imputed financing
obligation.

Guarantees and Product Warranties

Guarantees must be disclosed upon issuance and a liability recognized for the fair value of obligations we assume
under such guarantees in accordance with ASC 460, Guarantees, which applies to both general guarantees and
product warranties.

Our Industrial Inkjet printers are generally accompanied by a 12-month limited warranty, which covers both parts
and labor. Our Fiery DFE products limited warranty is generally 12 to 15 months. In accordance with ASC
450-30, an accrual is established when the warranty liability is estimable and probable based on historical
experience. A provision for the estimated warranty costs relating to products that have been sold is recorded in
cost of revenue upon recognition of revenue and the resulting accrual is reviewed regularly and periodically
adjusted to reflect changes in warranty estimates.

Indemnifications

In the normal course of business and in an effort to facilitate the sales of our products, we sometimes indemnify
other parties, including customers, lessors, and parties to other transactions with us. When we indemnify these
parties, typically those provisions protect other parties against losses arising from our infringement of third party
intellectual property rights or other claims made by third parties arising from the use or distribution of our
products. Those provisions often contain various limitations including limits on the amount of protection
provided.

As permitted under Delaware law, pursuant to our bylaws, charter, and indemnification agreements with our
current and former executive officers, directors, and general counsel, we are required, subject to certain limited
qualifications, to indemnify our executive officers, directors, and general counsel for certain events or
occurrences while the executive officer, director, or general counsel is or was serving at our request in such
capacity. The indemnification period covers all pertinent events and occurrences during the executive officer’s,
director’s, or general counsel’s lifetime. The maximum potential future payments we may be obligated to make
under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, we have director and officer insurance coverage
that limits our exposure and may enable us to recover a portion of any future amounts paid.

Legal Proceedings

We may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations, or proceedings relating to
contractual disputes, securities laws, intellectual property rights, employment, or other matters that may arise in
the normal course of business. We assess our potential liability in each of these matters by using the information
available to us. We develop our views on estimated losses in consultation with inside and outside counsel, which
involves a subjective analysis of potential results and various combinations of appropriate litigation and
settlement strategies. We accrue estimated losses from contingencies if a loss is deemed probable and can be
reasonably estimated.

As of December 31, 2016, we are subject to the matter discussed below.

MDG Matter

EFI acquired Matan in 2015 from sellers (the “2015 Sellers”) that acquired Matan Digital Printing Ltd. from
other sellers in 2001 (the “2001 Sellers”). The 2001 Sellers have asserted a claim against the 2015 Sellers and
Matan asserting that they are entitled to a portion of the 2015 Sellers’ proceeds from EFI’s acquisition. The 2015
Sellers dispute any such claim and have fully indemnified EFI against the 2001 Sellers’ claim.

Although we are fully indemnified and we do not believe that it is probable that we will incur a loss, it is
reasonably possible that our financial statements could be materially affected by an unfavorable resolution of this

130

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

matter. Accordingly, it is reasonably possible that we could incur a material loss in this matter. We estimate the
range of loss to be between one dollar and $10.1 million. If we incur a loss in this matter, it will be offset by an
indemnification receivable of an equal amount representing a claim against the escrow account established in
connection with the Matan acquisition.

Other Matters

As of December 31, 2016, we were subject to various other claims, lawsuits, investigations, and proceedings in
addition to the matter discussed above. There is at least a reasonable possibility that additional losses may be
incurred in excess of the amounts that we have accrued. However, we believe that these claims are not material to
our financial statements or the range of reasonably possible losses is not reasonably estimable. Litigation is
inherently unpredictable, and while we believe that we have valid defenses with respect to legal matters pending
against us, our financial statements could be materially affected in any particular period by the unfavorable
resolution of one or more of these contingencies or because of the diversion of management’s attention and the
incurrence of significant expenses.

Note 9: Common Stock Repurchase Programs

On November 6, 2013, the board of directors approved the repurchase of $200 million of outstanding common
stock. Under this publicly announced plan, we repurchased 1.8 and 1.5 million shares for an aggregate purchase
price of $74.2 and $65.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

On November 9, 2015, the board of directors cancelled $54.9 million remaining for repurchase under the 2013
authorization and approved a new authorization to repurchase $150 million of outstanding common stock
commencing January 1, 2016. This authorization expires December 31, 2018.

Our employees have the option to surrender shares of common stock to satisfy their tax withholding obligations
that arise on the vesting of RSUs. In connection with stock option exercises, certain employees can surrender
shares to satisfy the exercise price of certain stock options and any tax withholding obligations incurred in
connection with such exercises. Employees surrendered 0.2 and 0.2 million shares for an aggregate purchase
price of $9.1 and $10.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

These repurchased shares reduce shares outstanding and are recorded as treasury stock under the cost method
thereby reducing stockholders’ equity by the cost of the repurchased shares. Our buyback program is limited by
SEC regulations and is subject to compliance with our insider trading policy.

Note 10: Derivatives and Hedging

We are exposed to market risk and foreign currency exchange risk from changes in foreign currency exchange
rates, which could affect operating results, financial position, and cash flows. We manage our exposure to these
risks through our regular operating and financing activities and, when appropriate, through the use of derivative
financial instruments. These derivative financial instruments are used to hedge monetary assets and liabilities,
intercompany balances, trade receivables, anticipated cash flows, and to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility
resulting from shifts in market rates. Our objective is to offset gains and losses resulting from these exposures
with losses and gains on the derivative contracts used to hedge them, thereby reducing volatility of earnings or
protecting fair values of assets and liabilities. We do not have any leveraged derivatives, nor do we use derivative
contracts for speculative purposes. ASC 815 requires the fair value of all derivative instruments, including those
embedded in other contracts, to be recorded as assets or liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The related
cash flow impacts of our derivative contracts are reflected as cash flows from operating activities.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

Our exposures are primarily related to non-U.S. dollar-denominated revenue in Europe, the U.K., Latin America,
China, Israel, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and to non-U.S. dollar-denominated operating expenses in
Europe, India, Japan, the U.K., China, Israel, Brazil, and Australia. We hedge our operating expense cash flow
exposure in Indian rupees. We hedge balance sheet remeasurement exposure associated with Brazilian real,
British pound sterling, Israeli shekel, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Chinese renminbi, and Euro-denominated
intercompany balances; Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Australian dollar, Israeli shekel, and Euro-
denominated trade receivables; and British pound sterling, Indian rupee, and Euro-denominated-denominated net
monetary assets.

By their nature, derivative instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of market and credit risk. The
market risk associated with these instruments resulting from currency exchange movement is expected to offset
the market risk of the underlying transactions, assets, and liabilities being hedged (i.e., operating expense
exposure in Indian rupees; the collection of Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Australian dollar, Israeli
shekel, and Euro-denominated trade receivables; and the settlement of Brazilian real, British pound sterling,
Israeli shekel, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Chinese renminbi, and Euro-denominated intercompany
balances). We do not believe there is significant risk of loss from non-performance by the counterparty
associated with these instruments because, by policy, we deal with counterparties having a minimum investment
grade or better credit rating. Credit risk is managed through the continuous monitoring of exposures to such
counterparties.

Cash Flow Hedges

Foreign currency derivative contracts with notional amounts of $3.2 million and net asset/liability amounts that
are immaterial have been designated as cash flow hedges of our Indian rupee operating expense exposure at
December 31, 2016 and 2015. The changes in fair value of these contracts are reported as a component of OCI
and reclassified to operating expense in the periods of payment of the hedged operating expenses. The ineffective
portion of the derivative hedging gain or loss, as well as changes in the derivative time value (which is excluded
from the assessment of hedge effectiveness), are recognized as a component of interest income and other income
(expense), net.

Balance Sheet Hedges

Forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments with notional amounts of $158.7 and $115.4 million are
used to hedge foreign currency balance sheet exposures at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. They are
not designated for hedge accounting treatment since there is a natural offset for the remeasurement of the
underlying foreign currency denominated asset or liability. We recognize changes in the fair value of
non-designated derivative instruments in earnings in the period of change. Gains (losses) on foreign currency
forward contracts used to hedge balance sheet exposures are recognized in interest income and other income
(expense), net, in the same period as the remeasurement gain (loss) of the related foreign currency denominated
assets and liabilities. Forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments consist of hedges of Brazilian real,
British pound sterling, Israeli shekel, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Chinese renminbi, and Euro-denominated
intercompany balances with notional amounts of $90.7 and $63.7 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015,
respectively, hedges of Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Australian dollar, Israeli shekel, and Euro-
denominated trade receivables with notional amounts of $39.8 and $49.1 million at December 31, 2016 and
2015, respectively, and hedges of British pounds sterling, Indian rupee, and Euro-denominated other net
monetary assets with notional amounts of $28.2 and $2.6 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, we recognized a $16.6 million tax benefit (including state tax benefit)
from the release of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the expiration of U.S. federal, state, and foreign
statutes of limitations, of which $10.3 million related to the 2012 sale of our Foster City building and land.

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recognized a $3.1 million tax benefit related to the increased
valuation of intangible assets for Brazilian tax reporting resulting from the merger of our Brazilian subsidiaries.

We earn a significant amount of our operating income outside the U.S., which is deemed to be permanently
reinvested in foreign jurisdictions. Of the income generated in jurisdictions with tax rates materially lower than
the statutory U.S. tax rate of 35%, most is earned in the Netherlands, Spain, United Kingdom, Italy, and the
Cayman Islands. Our effective tax rate could fluctuate significantly and be adversely impacted if anticipated
earnings in the Netherlands, Spain, and the Cayman Islands are proportionally lower than current projections and
earnings in all other jurisdictions are proportionally higher than current projections.

While we currently do not foresee a need to repatriate the earnings of foreign operations, should we require more
capital in the U.S. than is generated by our U.S. operations, we may elect to repatriate funds held in our foreign
jurisdictions or raise capital in the U.S. through debt or equity issuances. These alternatives could result in higher
effective tax rates, the cash payments of taxes and/or increased interest expense. As of December 31, 2016, we
have permanently reinvested $164.6 million of unremitted foreign earnings. Should these earnings be remitted to
the U.S., the tax on these earnings would be $34.6 million.

In Altera Corp.v. Commissioner, the U.S Tax Court issued an opinion on July 27, 2015, related to the treatment
of stock-based compensation expense in an intercompany cost-sharing arrangement. To date, the U.S.
Department of the Treasury has not withdrawn the requirement to include stock-based compensation in
intercompany cost-sharing arrangements from its regulations. Due to the uncertainty related to the status of the
current regulations and the ultimate outcome of the appeal, we have not recorded any benefit as of December 31,
2016 in our Consolidated Statement of Operations. We will continue to monitor ongoing developments and
potential impacts to our consolidated financial statements.

We have $16.1 million ($54.8 million for state tax purposes) and $42.3 million ($37.3 million for state tax
purposes) of loss and credit carryforwards at December 31, 2016 for U.S. federal tax purposes. A majority of
these federal and state losses and credits will expire between 2022 and 2027. A significant portion of these net
operating loss and credit carryforwards relate to recent acquisitions. Utilization of these loss and credit
carryforwards will be subject to an annual limitation under the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”). We also have a
valuation allowance related to California and Luxembourg deferred tax assets.

134

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

We assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income by considering
both positive and negative evidence relating to their recoverability. If we believe that recovery of these deferred
tax assets is not more likely than not, we establish a valuation allowance. Significant judgment is required in
determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation
allowance, we considered all available evidence, including recent operating results, projections of future taxable
income, our ability to utilize loss and credit carryforwards, and the feasibility of tax planning strategies. Other
than valuation allowances on deferred tax assets related to California, Luxembourg, Israel, Netherlands, and
Turkey deferred tax assets that will not be realized based on the size of the net operating loss and research and
development credits being generated, we have determined that it is more likely than not that we will realize the
benefit related to all other deferred tax assets. To the extent we increase a valuation allowance, we will include
an expense within the tax benefit in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period in which such
determination is made.

As of December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, gross unrecognized benefits that would affect the effective tax rate if
recognized were $32.0, $43.5, and $32.1 million, respectively, offset by deferred tax benefits of $1.1, $1.0, and
$0.7 million related to the federal tax effect of state income taxes for the same periods. Over the next twelve
months, our existing tax positions will continue to generate increased liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits. It
is reasonably possible that our gross unrecognized tax benefits will decrease up to $3.5 million in the next twelve
months. These adjustments, if recognized, would positively impact our effective tax rate, and would be
recognized as additional tax benefits in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In accordance with ASU 2013-11, we recorded $20.0 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits as an offset to
deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2016, and the remaining $12.0 million has been recorded as noncurrent
income taxes payable.

We recognize potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
At December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, we have accrued $0.5, $0.5, and $0.9 million, respectively, for potential
payments of interest and penalties.

135

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

In accordance with ASU 2016-09, which was adopted in the second quarter of 2016, we recorded $2.2 million of
deferred tax assets related to excess tax benefits for federal research and development income tax credits not
previously benefitted and $0.6 million of deferred tax assets for the tax benefit on the cumulative effect
adjustment associated with the change in accounting for RSU forfeitures.

We are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for the 2013-2015 tax years, state tax
jurisdictions for the 2012-2015 tax years, the Netherlands tax authority for the 2014-2015 tax years, the Spanish
tax authority for the 2012-2015 tax years, and the Italian tax authority for the 2012-2015 tax years.

Note 12: Employee Benefit Plans

Equity Incentive Plans

As of December 31, 2016, we had outstanding equity awards under our 2009 Plan, which is defined below. No
awards may be granted under our 2007 Stock Plan. Our primary equity incentive plans are summarized as
follows:

2009 Stock Plan

As most recently amended on June 4, 2013, our stockholders approved amendments to the Amended and
Restated 2009 Equity Incentive Award Plan (“2009 Plan”) to increase the number of shares of common stock
reserved under the plan for future issuance up to 11.6 million shares and authorize the granting of performance-
based awards under the plan through the 2018 annual meeting of stockholders.

The 2009 Plan provides for grants of stock options (both incentive and nonqualified stock options), restricted
stock awards, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance stock units, dividend equivalents, stock
payments, deferred stock, RSUs, and performance-based awards. Options and awards generally vest over a
period of one to four years from the date of grant and generally expire seven to ten years from the date of the
grant. The terms of the 2009 Plan provide that an option price shall not be less than 100% of fair value on the
date of the grant. Our board of directors may grant a stock bonus or stock unit award under the 2009 Plan in lieu
of all or a portion of any cash bonus that a participant would have otherwise received for the related performance
period.

The shares of common stock covered by the 2009 Plan may be treasury shares, authorized but unissued shares, or
shares purchased in the open market. If an award under the 2009 Plan is forfeited (including a reimbursement of
a non-vested award upon a participant’s termination of employment at a price equal to the par value of the
common stock subject to the award) or expired, any shares of common stock subject to the award may be used
again for new grants under the 2009 Plan.

The 2009 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (“Committee”). The
Committee has the exclusive authority to administer the 2009 Plan, including the power to (i) designate
participants under the 2009 Plan, (ii) determine the types of awards granted to participants under the 2009 Plan,
the number of such awards, and the number of shares of our common stock that is subject to such awards,
(iii) determine and interpret the terms and conditions of any awards under the 2009 Plan, including the vesting
schedule, exercise price, whether to settle or accept the payment of any exercise price, in cash, common stock,
other awards, or other property, and whether an award may be cancelled, forfeited, or surrendered, (iv) prescribe
the form of each award agreement, and (v) adopt rules for the administration, interpretation, and application of
the 2009 Plan.

136

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

Persons eligible to participate in the 2009 Plan include all of our employees, directors, and consultants, as
determined by the Committee. As of December 31, 2016, approximately 3,600 employees and consultants and 5
non-employee directors were eligible to participate in the 2009 Plan.

There were 2.4, 2.3, and 2.5 million shares outstanding and 1.7, 2.7, and 3.4 million shares available for grant
under the 2009 Plan as of December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

Amended and Restated 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

As most recently amended on June 4, 2013, our stockholders approved the Amended and Restated 2000
Employee Stock Purchase Plan that increased the number of shares authorized for issuance pursuant to such plan
by 2 million shares. The share increase was intended to ensure that we continue to have a sufficient reserve of
common stock available under the ESPP to provide our eligible employees with the opportunity to acquire our
common stock through participation in a payroll deduction-based ESPP designed to operate in compliance with
Section 423 of the IRC. The ESPP does not provide for an automatic increase in the number of shares reserved
for issuance under the ESPP.

The ESPP is qualified under Section 423 of the IRC. Eligible employees may contribute from one to ten percent
of their base compensation. Employees are not able to purchase more than the number of shares having a value
greater than $25,000 in any calendar year, as measured at the beginning of the offering period under the ESPP.
The purchase price shall be the lesser of 85% of the fair value of the stock, either on the offering date or on the
purchase date. The offering period shall not exceed 27 months beginning with the offering date. The ESPP
provides for offerings of four consecutive, overlapping six-month offering periods, with a new offering period
commencing on the first trading day on or after February 1 and August 1 of each year.

During each of the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, there were 0.3, 0.3, and 0.6 million shares
issued under the ESPP at an average purchase price of $32.88, $31.66, and $13.54, respectively. As of
December 31, 2016, there was $0.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock-based
compensation arrangements granted under the ESPP, which is expected to be recognized over a period of 1.8
years. At December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, there were 1.2, 1.5, and 1.8 million shares, respectively, of our
common stock reserved for issuance under the ESPP.

Employee 401(k) Plan

We sponsor a 401(k) Savings Plan (“401(k) Plan”) that provides retirement and incidental benefits for our
employees. Employees may contribute from 1% to 40% of their annual compensation to the 401(k) Plan, limited
to a maximum annual amount as set periodically by the IRS. In 2014, the maximum employee contribution was
increased from 40% to 75%. We match 50% of U.S. employee contributions, up to a maximum of the first 4% of
the employee’s compensation contributed to the plan, subject to IRS limitations. All matching contributions vest
over four years starting with the hire date of the individual employee. Our matching contributions to the 401(k)
Plan totaled $2.2, $2.3, and $2.1 million during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014,
respectively. The employees’ contributions and our contributions are invested in mutual funds managed by a
fund manager, or in self-directed retirement plans.

Valuation and Expense Information under ASC 718

We account for stock-based payment awards in accordance with ASC 718, which requires the measurement and
recognition of compensation expense for all equity awards granted to our employees and directors, including
employee stock options, RSUs, and ESPP purchase rights related to all stock-based compensation plans based on

137

o
F

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

the fair value of such awards on the date of grant. We amortize stock-based compensation cost on a graded
vesting basis over the vesting period reduced by forfeitures, after assessing the probability of achieving the
requisite performance criteria with respect to performance-based awards. Stock-based compensation cost is
recognized over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche of the award as though the award
were, in substance, multiple awards. Prior to adoption of ASU 2016-09 in the first quarter of 2016 as explained
more fully in Note 1—The Company and Its Significant Accounting Policies, stock-based compensation expense
included estimated forfeitures.

We use the BSM option pricing model to value stock-based compensation for all equity awards, except market-
based awards. We value market-based awards using a Monte Carlo valuation model.

The BSM model determines the fair value of stock-based payment awards based on the stock price on the date of
grant and is affected by assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These
variables include, but are not limited to, our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, expected
term, interest rates, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behavior. Expected volatility is
based on the historical volatility of our stock over a preceding period commensurate with the expected term of
the option. The expected term is based upon management’s consideration of the historical life, vesting period,
and contractual period of the options granted. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is
based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected dividend yield was not considered
in the option pricing formula since we do not pay dividends and have no current plans to do so in the future.

Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options, RSUs, ESPP purchase rights, and stock options
under ASC 718 for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 is summarized as follows (in thousands):

Valuation Assumptions for Stock Options and ESPP Purchases

Our determination of the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using BSM is affected by
various assumptions including volatility, expected term, and interest rates. Expected volatility is based on the
historical volatility of our stock over a preceding period commensurate with the expected term of the stock
option. The expected term is based on management’s consideration of the historical life of the stock options, the
vesting period of the stock options granted, and the contractual period of the stock options granted. The risk-free
interest rate for the expected term of the stock options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the
time of grant. Expected dividend yield was not considered in the option pricing formula since we do not pay
dividends and have no current plans to do so in the future.

Aggregate stock option intrinsic value represents the difference between the closing price per share of our
common stock on the last trading day of the fiscal period and the exercise price of the underlying awards for the
options that were in the money at December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014. The total intrinsic value of options
exercised, determined as of the date of option exercise, was $3.8, $3.7, and $13.2 million for the years ended
December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. There was no unrecognized compensation cost related to stock
options expected to vest as of December 31, 2016. The weighted average exercise price ranges between $11.40
and $16.57. The weighted average remaining contractual term ranges between 0.64 and 2.68 years.

Non-vested RSUs

Non-vested RSUs were awarded to employees under our equity incentive plans. Non-vested RSUs do not have
the voting rights of common stock and the shares underlying non-vested RSUs are not considered issued and
outstanding. Non-vested RSUs generally vest over a service period of one to four years. The compensation

139

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

expense incurred for these service-based awards is based on the closing market price of our stock on the date of
grant and is amortized on a graded vesting basis over the requisite service period. The weighted average fair
value of RSUs granted during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $43.35, $41.61, and
$41.71, respectively.

Vested RSUs

Performance-based RSUs that vested based on annual financial results are included in the period that the
performance criteria were met. The grant date fair value of RSUs that vested during the years ended
December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $38.34, $32.39, and $21.94 million, respectively. Aggregate intrinsic
value of RSUs vested and expected to vest at December 31, 2016 was $79.1 million calculated as the closing
price per share of our common stock on the last trading day of the fiscal period multiplied by 1.8 million RSUs
vested and expected to vest at December 31, 2016. RSUs expected to vest represent time-based RSUs unvested
and outstanding at December 31, 2016, and performance-based RSUs for which the requisite service period has
not been rendered, but are expected to vest based on the achievement of performance conditions. There was
approximately $33.9 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to RSUs expected to vest as of
December 31, 2016. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.33 years.

Our performance-based RSUs generally vest when specified performance criteria are met based on bookings,
revenue, cash provided by operating activities, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP earnings per share,
revenue growth compared to market comparables, non-GAAP earnings per share growth compared to cash flow
from operating activities growth, or other targets during the service period; otherwise, they are forfeited.
Non-GAAP operating income is defined as operating income determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to
remove the impact of certain expenses as defined in Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Information. Non-GAAP
earnings per share is defined as net income determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to remove the impact
of certain expenses, divided by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common
shares outstanding during the period as more fully defined in Note 2—Earnings Per Share of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

The grant date fair value per share determined in accordance with the BSM valuation model is being amortized
over the service period of the performance-based awards. The probability of achieving the awards was
determined based on review of the actual results achieved thus far by each business unit compared with the
operating plan during the pertinent service period as well as the overall strength of the business unit. Stock-based
compensation expense was adjusted based on this probability assessment. As actual results are achieved during
the service period, the probability assessment is updated and stock-based compensation expense adjusted
accordingly.

Market-based awards vest when our average closing stock price exceeds defined multiples of the closing stock
price on a specified date for 90 consecutive trading days. If these multiples were not achieved by another
specified date, the awards are forfeited. The grant date fair value is being amortized over the average derived

142

service period of the awards. The average derived service period and total fair value were determined using a
Monte Carlo valuation model based on our assumptions, which include a risk-free interest rate and implied
volatility.

Note 13: Restructuring and Other

During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, cost reduction actions lowered our operating
expense run rate as we continue to analyze our cost structure and re-align our cost structure following our
business acquisitions. These charges primarily relate to cost reduction actions undertaken to integrate recently
acquired businesses, consolidate facilities, and lower our operating expense run rate. Restructuring and other
consists primarily of restructuring, severance, retention, facility downsizing and relocation, and acquisition
integration expenses. Our restructuring and other plans are accounted for in accordance with ASC 420, ASC 712,
and ASC 820.

Restructuring and other costs for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $6.7, $5.7, and
$6.6 million, respectively. Restructuring and other charges include severance costs of $4.1, $3.0, and $3.2 million
related to head count reductions of 128, 99, and 130 for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014,
respectively. Severance costs include severance payments, related employee benefits, retention bonuses,
outplacement fees, and relocation costs.

Facilities relocation and downsizing costs for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $0.5,
$0.9, and $2.0 million, respectively. Facilities restructuring and other costs are primarily related to the relocation
of certain manufacturing and administrative locations to accommodate additional space requirements in 2016 and
2015, and consolidation of our German operations in 2014. Integration expenses for the years ended
December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 of $2.1, $1.8, and $1.4 million, respectively, were required to integrate our
business acquisitions.

Note 14: Segment Information, Geographic Regions, and Major Customers

Operating Segments

Operating segment information is required to be presented based on the internal reporting used by the chief
operating decision making group (“CODM”) to allocate resources and evaluate operating segment performance.
Our CODM is comprised of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The CODM group is
focused on assessment and resource allocation among the Industrial Inkjet, Productivity Software, and Fiery
operating segments.

Our operating segments are integrated through their reporting and operating structures, shared technology and
practices, shared sales and marketing, and combined production facilities. Our enterprise management processes

143

Fiery, which consists of digital front ends (“DFEs”) that transform digital copiers and printers into high
performance networked printing devices for the office, industrial, and commercial printing markets. This
operating segment is comprised of (i) stand-alone DFEs connected to digital printers, copiers, and other
peripheral devices, (ii) embedded DFEs and design-licensed solutions used in digital copiers and multi-functional
devices, (iii) optional software integrated into our DFE solutions such as Fiery Central and Graphics Arts

Our CODM evaluates the performance of our operating segments based on net sales and gross profit. Gross profit
for each operating segment includes revenue from sales to third parties and related cost of revenue attributable to
the operating segment. Cost of revenue for each operating segment excludes certain expenses managed outside
the operating segments consisting primarily of stock-based compensation expense. Operating income is not
reported by operating segment because operating expenses include significant shared expenses and other costs
that are managed outside of the operating segments. Such operating expenses include various corporate expenses
such as stock-based compensation, corporate sales and marketing, research and development, income taxes,
various non-recurring charges, and other separately managed general and administrative expenses.

Geographic Regions

Our revenue originates in the U.S., China, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, France, the U.K., Spain, Israel,
Brazil, Australia, and New Zealand. We report revenue by geographic region based on ship-to destination.
Shipments to some of our significant printer manufacturer/distributor customers are made to centralized
purchasing and manufacturing locations, which in turn sell through to other locations. As a result of these factors,
we believe that sales to certain geographic locations might be higher or lower, as the ultimate destinations are
difficult to ascertain.

Our revenue by ship-to destination for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 was as follows
(in thousands):

Americas . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Item 9A: Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as this term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under
the Exchange Act, that are designed to provide reasonable assurance 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 SEC 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. Our management, including the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is engaged in a comprehensive effort to review, evaluate, and
improve our controls; however, management does not expect that our disclosure controls will prevent all errors
and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not
absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives are met. 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
is also based in part on 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 our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective to provide reasonable assurance as of December 31, 2016.

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial
reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. 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.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the
effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016. In making this
assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). Based on our assessment using those
criteria, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2016.

Our management has excluded the internal control over financial reporting at Rialco and Optitex from its
assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 because they were acquired in
purchase business combinations during 2016. Rialco and Optitex represent approximately 4.4% and 2.0% of the
total consolidated assets and total consolidated revenue, respectively, of the Company as of and for the year
ended December 31, 2016.

Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, as stated in their report included in this Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

(c) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the
Exchange Act) identified in connection with our evaluation that occurred during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016
that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial
reporting.

(d) Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Electronics For Imaging, Inc.
Fremont, California

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Electronics For Imaging, Inc. and subsidiaries
(the “Company”) as of December 31, 2016, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated
Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. As
described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management excluded Rialco
Limited (“Rialco”) and Optitex Ltd. (“Optitex”) from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting
as of December 31, 2016 because they were acquired in purchase business combinations during 2016. Rialco and
Optitex represent approximately 4.4% and 2.0% of the total consolidated assets and total consolidated revenue,
respectively, of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016. Accordingly, our audit did not
include the internal control over financial reporting at Rialco and Optitex. 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 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.

148

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 by, or under the supervision of, the
company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and
effected by the company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel 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 the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion
or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or
detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over
financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the 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, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework
(2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
