2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These principles require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, together with amounts disclosed in the related notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results and outcomes may differ from managements estimates, judgments and assumptions. Significant estimates used in these condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, revenues, accounts receivable and related reserves, useful lives and realizability of long-term assets, provision for litigation, capitalized software, acquired intangibles, income and other taxes, the fair value of share-based compensation and other contingent liabilities. Estimates are periodically reviewed in light of changes in circumstances, facts and experience. The effects of material revisions in estimates are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements prospectively from the date of the change in estimate. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2011, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, are unaudited. The condensed consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2010 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2011. The consolidated financial information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 11, 2011.
On September 1, 2011, the Company completed the sale of its EyeWonder LLC and subsidiaries and chors GmbH video and rich media advertising services business (EyeWonder and chors) to DG FastChannel, Inc. (DG) The sale of EyeWonder and chors met the criteria for discontinued operations during the quarter ended September 30, 2011. Accordingly, the assets, liabilities and results of operations related to EyeWonder and chors have been classified as discontinued operations in all periods presented. See further discussion at Note 5.
The results of operations presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011 or for any future periods. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary, in the opinion of management, to present fairly the results of all interim periods reported herein.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
As of January 1, 2011, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-28, Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts (ASU 2010-28). ASU 2010-28 clarifies the requirement to test for impairment of goodwill. ASC Topic 350 has required that goodwill be tested for impairment if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Under ASU 2010-28, when the carrying amount of a reporting unit is zero or negative an entity must assume that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, perform an additional test to determine whether goodwill has been impaired and calculate the amount of that impairment. The modifications to ASC Topic 350 resulting from the issuance of ASU 2010-28 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and interim periods within those years. The adoption of ASU 2010-08 did not have an impact on the financial statements of the Company.
7
As of January 1, 2011, the Company adopted ASU 2010-29 Business Combinations (Topic 805) Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations (ASU 2010-29). This update clarifies that, when presenting comparative financial statements, SEC registrants should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the current period business combinations had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The update also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for material (either on an individual or aggregate basis) business combinations entered into in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The revised disclosure requirements will not affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in United States GAAP and IFRSs (ASU 2011-04), which changes the wording used to describe the requirements in United States GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in order to improve consistency in the application and description of fair value between United States GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). ASU 2011-04 clarifies how the concepts of highest and best use and valuation premise in a fair value measurement are relevant only when measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets and are not relevant when measuring the fair value of financial assets or of liabilities. In addition, the guidance expanded the disclosures for the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements, requiring quantitative information to be disclosed related to (1) the valuation processes used, (2) the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs, and (3) use of a nonfinancial asset in a way that differs from the assets highest and best use. The revised guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and early application by public entities is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income (ASU 2011-05). The amendments in ASU 2011-05 allow an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders equity. The amendments in ASU 2011-05 do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. ASU 2011-05 should be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the amendments in ASU 2011-05 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company believes the adoption of this guidance concerns disclosure only and will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASC Topic 350) Testing Goodwill for Impairment. ASU No. 2011-08 is intended to simplify goodwill impairment testing by adding a qualitative review step to assess whether the required quantitative impairment analysis that exists today is necessary. ASU No. 2011-08 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. ASU No. 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adoption of this guidance on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company analyzes the functional currency for each of its international subsidiaries periodically to determine if a significant change in facts and circumstances indicate that the primary economic currency has changed. As of December 31, 2010, the international subsidiaries acquired as part of the EyeWonder, Inc. and chors acquisitions had local currencies as their functional currencies, while the remaining international subsidiaries of the Company had the United States dollar as their functional currencies. During the first quarter of 2011, the Company analyzed the various economic factors of its international subsidiaries and determined that the operations of its subsidiaries that were previously determined to operate in a United States dollar functional currency environment had changed and that their functional currencies should be changed to the local currencies. The Company was historically primarily focused on the United States market and deployed network assets in foreign jurisdictions to support its United States customers. The Company is now conducting business and generating revenue from an international customer base. It has significantly expanded its sales, operations and finance resources internationally and various contracts were moved to the foreign subsidiaries to better match foreign currency costs with foreign currency revenues. Effective January 1, 2011, the adjustment from translating these subsidiaries financial
8
statements from the local currency to the United States dollar was recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. These foreign currency translation adjustments reflect the translation of the balance sheet at period end exchange rates and the income statement at an average exchange rate in effect during each period. Upon the change in functional currency, the Company recorded a cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) of approximately $0.5 million, which is included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Because of the change in exchange rates between reporting periods and changes in certain account balances, the foreign currency translation adjustment will change from period to period.
3. Investments in Marketable Securities
Management determines the appropriate classification of its debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such classification as of each balance sheet date. The Company has classified its investments in equity and debt securities as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale investments are initially recorded at cost with temporary changes in fair value periodically adjusted through comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other than temporary are determined based on the specific identification method and are reported in the statements of operations. The Company periodically reviews its investments for other-than-temporary declines in fair value based on the specific identification method and writes down investments to their fair value when an other-than-temporary decline has occurred.

At September 30, 2011, the Company evaluated its investment portfolio in available-for-sale debt securities, and noted unrealized losses of approximately $5,000 were due to fluctuations in interest rates. Management does not believe any of the unrealized losses represented an other-than-temporary impairment based on its evaluation of available evidence as of September 30, 2011. The Companys intent is to hold these investments to such time as these assets are no longer impaired.
Expected maturities can differ from contractual maturities because the issuers of the securities may have the right to prepay obligations without prepayment penalties, and the Company views its available-for-sale securities as available for current operations.

4. Business Acquisitions
AcceloWeb, (IL) Ltd. Acquisition
On May 9, 2011, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of AcceloWeb, (IL) Ltd. (AcceloWeb), a Tel Aviv, Israel based privately-held provider of advanced technology that helps speed the presentation of web sites and applications. The services provided by AcceloWeb align with the Companys current whole site acceleration strategy, providing a time to market advantage over development of a new product and furthers the Companys value-added services growth strategy. The aggregate purchase price consisted of approximately $5.0 million of cash paid at the closing (cash paid net of cash acquired was $4.7 million) and 1,100,629 shares of the Companys common stock with an estimated fair value of approximately $7.0 million on the acquisition date. The number of common shares issued at the closing was determined on the basis of the average closing market price of the Companys common shares on the five days preceding the acquisition date. In addition, the purchase price included contingent consideration with an aggregate potential value of $8.0 million ($4.0 million payable in cash and $4.0 million payable in the Companys common stock) which may be earned upon the achievement of certain performance milestones which will be measured quarterly during the eight full consecutive quarters ending June 30, 2013 (the Earn-Out). The fair value of the Earn-Out as of the acquisition date and at June 30, 2011 was determined to be approximately $6.2 million which was recorded in other long term liabilities and is comprised of $3.1 million payable in cash (the Cash Earn-Out) and $3.1 million payable in common stock (the Common Stock Earn-Out). The carrying value of the Earn-Out is accreted to its estimated redemption value with a charge to interest expense.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, management determined the initial assumptions used to develop estimated fair value of the contingent consideration were inappropriate and a correction was required to take into account information that should have been considered at the date of acquisition. Based on updated assumptions, the Company made an adjustment to the fair value of the Earn-Out from $6.2 million to $0.8 million. The estimated value of the contingent consideration as of acquisition date was comprised of $0.4 million payable in cash (the Cash Earn-Out) and $0.4 million payable in common stock (the Common Stock Earn-Out). The Company also reconsidered its projected future cash flows as a result of the change to assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the Earn-out. This resulted in corrections to the developed technology intangible asset and goodwill which are shown in the purchase price allocation table below. These corrections had no material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as previously reported. The carrying value of the Earn-Out is accreted to its estimated redemption value with a charge to interest expense. Interest expense related to accretion of the Earn-Out totaled $47,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The number of shares of the Companys common stock to be issued upon achievement of the Common Stock Earn-Out will be determined based on the average closing market price of the Companys common shares on the five days preceding the last day of the fiscal quarter in which the Earn-Out consideration is earned. In accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, the Common Stock Earn-Out has been classified as a liability because it will be settled in a variable number of shares with a fixed monetary value.
Under the terms of the merger agreement, 188,677 shares of the common stock portion of the purchase price with an estimated fair value on the acquisition date of approximately $1.2 million has been set aside in an escrow account and will be held for a period of up to 18 months following the closing date to satisfy any unresolved indemnification claims. Escrow amounts not then subject to a settled or pending, unsatisfied or unresolved indemnity claims, will be released as soon as practicable following the end of the 18-month escrow period. In addition, the Company incurred approximately $0.3 million of
10
transaction costs, which primarily consisted of fees for legal services. These transaction costs are included in general and administrative expenses in the Companys statement of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. The Companys consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of AcceloWeb from the date of acquisition. The historical results of operations of AcceloWeb were not significant to the Companys consolidated results of operations for the periods presented. The total purchase consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition, as determined by management and, with respect to identifiable intangible assets, by management with the assistance of an appraisal provided by a third party valuation firm. The excess of the purchase price over the amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. In accordance with current accounting standards, goodwill associated with the AcceloWeb acquisition will not be amortized and will be tested for impairment at least annually (see Note 8).
The following table presents the allocation of the purchase price for AcceloWeb and adjustments made during the three month period ended September 30, 2011:

(a) | Adjustments resulting from correction to Earn-Out discussed above. |
Developed technology with a value of approximately $4.5 million is being amortized over its expected useful life of 5 years.
The goodwill resulting from the AcceloWeb acquisition is not deductible for income tax purposes.
In determining the purchase price allocation, the Company considered, among other factors, how a market participant would likely use the acquired assets and the historical and estimated future demand for AcceloWeb services. The estimated fair value of intangible assets was based upon the income approach. The income approach relies on an estimation of the present value of the future monetary benefits expected to flow to the owner of an asset during its remaining economic life. This approach requires a projection of the cash flow that the asset is expected to generate in the future. The projected cash flow is discounted to its present value using a rate of return, or discount rate that accounts for the time value of money and the degree of risks inherent in the asset. The expected future cash flow that is projected should include all of the economic benefits attributable to the asset, including the tax savings associated with the amortization of the intangible asset value over the tax life of the asset. The income approach may take the form of a relief from royalty methodology, a cost savings methodology, a with and without methodology, or excess earnings methodology, depending on the specific asset under consideration.
The relief-from-royalty method was used to value the technology acquired from AcceloWeb. The relief-from-royalty method estimates the cost savings that accrue to the owner of an intangible asset that would otherwise be required to pay royalties or license fees on revenues earned through the use of the asset. The royalty rate used is based on an analysis of empirical, market-derived royalty rates for guideline intangible assets. Typically, revenue is projected over the expected remaining useful life of the intangible asset. The royalty rate is then applied to estimate the royalty savings. The key assumptions used in valuing the technology acquired are as follows: royalty rate of 20%, discount rate of 42%, tax rate of 39% and an economic life of approximately 5 years.
The Company retained an independent third-party appraiser to assist management in its valuation which is finalized as of September 30, 2011.

Clickability Acquisition
On May 2, 2011, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of Clickability, Inc. (Clickability), a privately-held software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider of web content management located in San Francisco, California. The services provided by Clickability align with the Companys current value-added services and furthers the Companys value-added services growth strategy. The aggregate purchase price consisted of approximately $4.9 million of cash paid at the closing (cash paid net of cash acquired was $2.8 million), $0.1 million held by the Company to cover future claims and 732,000 shares of the Companys common stock with an estimated fair value of approximately $4.6 million on the date of acquisition. The Company issued 382,000 common shares with an estimated fair value of approximately $2.4 million at the closing. Under the terms of the merger agreement, approximately 350,000 shares of the common stock portion of the purchase price with an estimated fair market value on the acquisition date of approximately $2.2 million and $0.1 million of cash will remain unissued to cover future claims. Approximately 60% of this amount is subject to an indemnification holdback and the remaining portion is subject to a retention holdback that has been set aside for a period of up to 12 months following the closing date. The indemnification holdback has been set aside for a period of up to 18 months following the closing date. Amounts of the indemnification holdback not then subject to a settled or pending indemnity claim will be released as soon as practicable following the end of the 18 month holdback period. The number of shares of common stock consideration for Clickability was determined on the basis of the average closing market price of the Companys common shares on the thirty days preceding the acquisition date. In addition, the Company incurred approximately $0.1 million of transaction costs, which primarily consisted of fees for legal services. These transaction costs were included in general and administrative expenses in the Companys statement of operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. The Companys consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of Clickability from the date of acquisition. The historical results of operations of Clickability were not significant to the Companys consolidated results of operations for the periods presented. The total purchase consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition, as determined by management and, with respect to identifiable intangible assets, by management with the assistance of an appraisal provided by a third party valuation firm. The excess of the purchase price over the amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. In accordance with current accounting standards, goodwill associated with the Clickability acquisition will not be amortized and will be tested for impairment at least annually (see Note 8).

The total weighted average amortization period for the identifiable intangible assets acquired from Clickability is 3.5 years.
The goodwill resulting from the Clickability acquisition is not deductible for income tax purposes.
In determining the purchase price allocation, the Company considered, among other factors, how a market participant would likely use the acquired assets and the historical and estimated future demand for Clickability services. The estimated fair value of intangible assets was based upon the income approach. The income approach relies on an estimation of the present value of the future monetary benefits expected to flow to the owner of an asset during its remaining economic life. This approach requires a projection of the cash flow that the asset is expected to generate in the future. The projected cash flow is discounted to its present value using a rate of return, or discount rate that accounts for the time value of money and the degree of risks inherent in the asset. The expected future cash flow that is projected should include all of the economic benefits attributable to the asset, including the tax savings associated with the amortization of the intangible asset value over the tax life of the asset. The income approach may take the form of a relief from royalty methodology, a cost savings methodology, a with and without methodology, or excess earnings methodology, depending on the specific asset under consideration.
The relief-from-royalty method was used to value the trade names and trademarks and technology acquired from Clickability. The relief-from-royalty method estimates the cost savings that accrue to the owner of an intangible asset that would otherwise be required to pay royalties or license fees on revenues earned through the use of the asset. The royalty rate used is based on an analysis of empirical, market-derived royalty rates for guideline intangible assets. Typically, revenue is projected over the expected remaining useful life of the intangible asset. The royalty rate is then applied to estimate the royalty savings. The key assumptions used in valuing the existing trade names and trademarks acquired are as follows: royalty rate of 2.5%, discount rate of 21.5%, tax rate of 39% and an economic life of approximately 0.7 years. The key assumptions used in valuing the technology acquired are as follows: royalty rate of 10%, discount rate of 21.5%, tax rate of 39%, and an economic life of approximately three years.
The customer relationships were valued using a form of the income approach know as the multi-period excess earnings method. Inherent in the multi-period excess earnings method is the recognition that, in most cases, all of the assets of the business, both tangible and intangible, contribute to the generation of the cash flow of the business and the net cash flows attributable to the subject asset must recognize the support of the other assets which contribute to the realization of the cash flows. The contributory asset charges are based on the fair value of the contributory assets and either pre-tax or after-tax cash flows are assessed charges representing returns on the contributory assets. A contributory asset charge for the use of the technology was assessed on pre-tax cash flows, while contributory asset charges for the use of the working capital, fixed assets, and assembled work force have been deducted from the after-tax cash flow in each year to determine the net future cash flow attributable to the relationships. This future cash flow was then discounted using an estimated required rate of return for the asset to determine the present value of the future cash flows attributable to the asset. The key assumptions used in valuing the customer relationships acquired are as follows: discount rate of 21.5%, tax rate of 39% and estimated average economic life of four years.
The Company retained an independent third-party appraiser to assist management in its valuation which is finalized as of September 30, 2011.
Delve Networks, Inc. Acquisition
On July 30, 2010, the Company acquired Delve Networks, Inc. (Delve), a privately-held provider of value-added video publishing and analytics services located in Seattle, Washington. The aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.1 million consisted of approximately $2.6 million of cash paid at the closing and 262,453 shares of the Companys common stock with an estimated fair value of approximately $1.1 million. The fair value of the common stock issued as consideration for Delve was determined on the basis of the closing market price of the Companys common stock on the acquisition date. In addition, the Company recorded as part of the purchase price approximately $0.4 million of contingent consideration it estimates will be earned relating to an earn-out provision. The estimated earn-out obligation is comprised of approximately $0.2 million of cash consideration and approximately 51,210 shares of the Companys common stock with an estimated value of approximately $0.2 million at the time of the acquisition. Under the terms of the merger agreement, approximately $0.6 million of the cash portion of the purchase price has been set aside in an escrow account and will be held for a period of up to 36 months following the closing date to satisfy any unresolved indemnification claims. In addition, the Company incurred approximately $0.2 million of transaction costs, which primarily consisted of fees for legal services. These transaction costs were included in general and administrative expenses in the Companys statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Companys consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of Delve from the date of acquisition. The historical results of operations of Delve were not significant to the Companys consolidated results of operations for the periods presented. The total purchase consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition, as determined by management and, with respect to identifiable intangible assets, by management with the assistance of an appraisal provided by a third party valuation firm. The excess of the purchase price over the amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. In accordance with current accounting standards, goodwill associated with the Delve acquisition will not be amortized and will be tested for impairment at least annually (see Note 8). The goodwill resulting from the Delve acquisition is not currently deductible for income tax purposes.

The total weighted average amortization period for the identified intangible assets acquired from Delve is 4.1 years.
In determining the purchase price allocation, the Company considered, among other factors, how a market participant would likely use the acquired assets and the historical and estimated future demand for Delve services. The estimated fair value of intangible assets was based upon the income approach. The income approach relies on an estimation of the present value of the future monetary benefits expected to flow to the owner of an asset during its remaining economic life. This approach requires a projection of the cash flow that the asset is expected to generate in the future. The projected cash flow is discounted to its present value using a rate of return, or discount rate that accounts for the time value of money and the degree of risks inherent in the asset. The expected future cash flow that is projected should include all of the economic benefits attributable to the asset, including the tax savings associated with the amortization of the intangible asset value over the tax life of the asset. The income approach may take the form of a relief from royalty methodology, a cost savings methodology, a with and without methodology, or excess earnings methodology, depending on the specific asset under consideration.
The relief-from-royalty method was used to value the trade names and trademarks and technology acquired from Delve. The relief-from-royalty method estimates the cost savings that accrue to the owner of an intangible asset that would otherwise be required to pay royalties or license fees on revenues earned through the use of the asset. The royalty rate used is based on an analysis of empirical, market-derived royalty rates for guideline intangible assets. Typically, revenue is projected over the expected remaining useful life of the intangible asset. The royalty rate is then applied to estimate the royalty savings. The key assumptions used in valuing the existing trade names and trademarks acquired are as follows: royalty rate of 0.8%, discount rate of 25%, tax rate of 39% and an economic life of approximately 2.5 years. The key assumptions used in valuing the technology acquired are as follows: royalty rate of 20%, discount rate of 25%, tax rate of 39%, and an economic life of approximately 4 years.
The customer relationships were valued using a form of the income approach know as the multi-period excess earnings method. Inherent in the multi-period excess earnings method is the recognition that, in most cases, all of the assets of the business, both
14
tangible and intangible, contribute to the generation of the cash flow of the business and the net cash flows attributable to the subject asset must recognize the support of the other assets which contribute to the realization of the cash flows. The contributory asset charges are based on the fair value of the contributory assets and either pre-tax or after-tax cash flows are assessed charges representing returns on the contributory assets. A contributory asset charge for the use of the technology was assessed on pre-tax cash flows, while contributory asset charges for the use of the working capital, fixed assets, and assembled work force have been deducted from the after-tax cash flow in each year to determine the net future cash flow attributable to the relationships. This future cash flow was then discounted using an estimated required rate of return for the asset to determine the present value of the future cash flows attributable to the asset. The key assumptions used in valuing the customer relationships acquired are as follows: discount rate of 22.5%, tax rate of 39% and estimated average economic life of 6 years.
The Company retained an independent third-party appraiser to assist management in its valuation which is finalized as of September 30, 2011.
EyeWonder, Inc. Acquisition
On April 30, 2010, the Company acquired EyeWonder, Inc., a provider of interactive digital advertising products and services to advertisers, advertising agencies and publishers headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. The aggregate purchase price of approximately $114.0 million consisted of approximately $62.8 million of cash and 12,740,000 shares of the Companys common stock with an estimated fair value of approximately $51.2 million. Under the terms of the merger agreement, 3,013,699 shares of the Companys common stock were set aside in an escrow account subject to any unresolved indemnification claims. On June 28, 2011, 1,592,150 shares were released from the escrow and distributed to the former EyeWonder, Inc. shareholders. As of September 30, 2011, 1,416,549 shares of common stock remain in the escrow account subject to certain unresolved indemnification claims. The Company has recorded an asset of approximately $2.8 million related to escrow claims associated with the acquisition which the Company has deemed probable of recovery. As of September 30, 2011, the Company has $1.7 million of unpaid liabilities associated with the escrow claims. The liabilities are included in other current liabilities and the asset is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the accompanying balance sheets. On September 1, 2011, the Company sold EyeWonder to DG. See further discussion at Note 5, Discontinued Operations, for additional details related to the sale.
For a more detailed description of the EyeWonder, Inc. acquisition, please see Note 3, contained in the Companys audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010 included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2011.
chors GmbH Acquisition
On January 27, 2010, the Company acquired chors, an on-line and direct marketing solutions provider located in Germany. The aggregate purchase price of approximately $5.9 million consisted of approximately $2.5 million of cash that was paid at closing, and 86,000 shares of the Companys common stock with an estimated value of approximately $0.3 million that were issued at closing. In addition, the Company recorded as part of the purchase price approximately $3.1 million of contingent consideration relating to an earn-out provision. The earn-out obligation was comprised of approximately $0.3 million of cash consideration and 774,000 shares of the Companys common stock with an estimated value of approximately $2.8 million at the time of the acquisition. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the contingent milestone consideration, the Company determined that the financial milestones were achieved and both the shares and cash were distributed to the former shareholders of chors in November 2010 (387,000 shares), March 2011 (387,000 shares), and April 2011 (approximately $0.3 million cash). On September 1, 2011, the Company sold chors to DG. See further discussion at Note 5, Discontinued Operations, for additional details related to the sale.
For a more detailed description of the chors acquisition, please see Note 3, contained in the Companys audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010 included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2011.
5. Discontinued Operations
On September 1, 2011, the Company completed the sale of its EyeWonder and chors rich media advertising services business to DG for net proceeds of $61.0 million ($66.0 million gross cash proceeds less $5.0 million held in escrow) plus an estimated $10.9 million receivable from DG pursuant to the Purchase Agreement dated as of August 30, 2011 by and among the Company, DG and Limelight Networks Germany GmbH. The $5.0 million held in escrow is intended to cover DGs ordinary operating expenses associated with the integration of EyeWonder and chors. The Company estimates that it will not receive any portion of the funds held in escrow and has excluded such amount from its calculation of the gain on sale of discontinued operations. The receivable from DG was determined by the Company based on estimated future cash payments from DG in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 the Company recorded a gain on sale of discontinued operations of $14.3 million net of income taxes. The gain on sale also reflects the realization of foreign currency translation adjustment gains of approximately $0.4 million and $0.1 million in unrealized losses on investments previously included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

The sale of EyeWonder and chors meets the criteria to be reported as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of EyeWonder and chors and their operating results have been reclassified to discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations. The Company operates as a single reporting segment and has included approximately $27.0 million of segment goodwill in the carrying amount of EyeWonder and chors in determining the gain on sale. This allocation was based on the relative fair values of the business to be disposed of and the portion of the reporting unit that will be retained.

The Company includes only revenues and costs directly attributable to the discontinued operations, in determining income (loss) from discontinued operations, and not those attributable to the ongoing entity. Accordingly, no general corporate overhead costs have been allocated to the discontinued operations.

8. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company has recorded goodwill and other intangible assets as a result of its business acquisitions of Kiptronic Inc. (Kiptronic), chors, EyeWonder, Inc., Delve, Clickability and AcceloWeb that occurred in May 2009, January 2010, April 2010, July 2010, May 2011 and May 2011, respectively. Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. At September 30, 2011, the Company has recorded goodwill of approximately $80.3 million. The Company concluded that it has one reporting unit and assigned the entire balance of goodwill to this reporting unit at September 30, 2011.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, goodwill decreased by approximately $32.7 million and other intangible assets decreased by approximately $12.0 million, primarily due to the sale of EyeWonder and chors. The Company is required to perform an impairment assessment at least annually, and more frequently under certain circumstances. During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, the Company determined that the sale of EyeWonder and chors was a triggering event requiring the Company to perform an impairment assessment to determine whether the carrying amount of the remaining goodwill exceeded its fair value. In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles Goodwill and Other, the Company performed Step 1 goodwill impairment testing and concluded that the goodwill balance of approximately $80.3 million was not impaired as of the date of the sale of EyeWonder and chors. Goodwill is subject to annual impairment testing during the last quarter of the Companys fiscal year. If the Company determines through the impairment process that goodwill has been impaired, the Company will record the impairment charge in the statement of operations. There can be no assurance that future goodwill impairment tests will not result in a charge to earnings.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 were as follows (in thousands):

13. Litigation
In June 2006, Akamai Technologies, Inc. (Akamai) and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts alleging that the Company was infringing two patents assigned to MIT and exclusively licensed by MIT to Akamai, United States Patent No. 6,553,413 (the 413 patent) and United States Patent No. 6,108,703 (the 703 patent). In September 2006, Akamai and MIT expanded their claims to assert infringement of a third, recently issued patent United States Patent No. 7,103,645 (the 645 patent). In February 2008, a jury returned a verdict in this lawsuit, finding that the Company infringed four claims of the 703 patent at issue and rejecting the Companys invalidity defenses for the period April 2005 through December 31, 2007. The jury awarded an aggregate of approximately $45.5 million which includes lost profits, reasonable royalties and price erosion damages. In addition, the jury awarded prejudgment interest which the Company estimated to be $2.6 million at December 31, 2007. The Company recorded an aggregate $48.1 million as a provision for litigation as of December 31, 2007. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company estimated its revenue from alleged infringing methods totaled approximately 25% of total revenue. The Company recorded a potential additional provision for litigation totaling $15.5 million, plus additional interest of $2.0 million, for the year ended December 31, 2008. The total provision for litigation at December 31, 2008 was $65.6 million.
20
On July 1, 2008, the court denied the Companys Motions for Judgment as a Matter of Law (JMOL), Obviousness, and a New Trial. The court also denied Akamais Motion for Permanent Injunction as premature and its Motions for Summary Judgment regarding the Companys equitable defenses. The court conducted a bench trial in November 2008 regarding the Companys equitable defenses. The Company also filed a motion for reconsideration of the courts earlier denial of the Companys motion for JMOL. The Companys motion for JMOL was based largely upon a clarification in the standard for a finding of joint infringement articulated by the Federal Circuit in the case of Muniauction, Inc. v. Thomson Corp. (the Muniauction Case), released after the court denied the Companys initial motion for JMOL. On April 24, 2009 the court issued its order and memorandum setting aside the adverse jury verdict and ruling that the Company did not infringe Akamais 703 patent and that the Company is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Based upon the courts April 24, 2009 order the Company has reversed the $65.6 million provision for litigation previously recorded for this lawsuit as the Company no longer believes that payment of any amounts represented by the litigation provision is probable. The court entered final judgment in favor of the Company on May 22, 2009, and Akamai filed its notice of appeal of the courts decision on May 26, 2009. The court heard arguments by both parties on June 7, 2010. On December 20, 2010 the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued its opinion affirming the District Courts entry of judgment in our favor. On February 18, 2011, Akamai filed a motion with the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit seeking a rehearing and rehearing en banc. On April 21, 2011, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued an order denying the petition for rehearing, granting the petition for rehearing en banc, vacating the December 20, 2010 opinion affirming the District Courts entry of judgment in the Companys favor, and reinstated the appeal. The Federal Circuit will hear oral arguments on November 18, 2011, and issue its opinion after that date. The Company believes that it does not infringe Akamais patents and will continue to vigorously defend the action. The Company is not able at this time to estimate the range of potential loss nor, in light of the favorable United States district court order, does it believe that a loss is probable. Therefore, the Company has made no provision for this lawsuit in its financial statements.
Legal and other expenses associated with this case have been significant. The Company includes these litigation expenses in general and administrative expenses, as reported in its consolidated statement of operations.
In the ordinary course of the Companys business, it is also involved in a limited number of other legal actions, both as plaintiff and defendant, and could incur uninsured liability in any one or more of them. With respect to pending legal actions to which the Company is a party, although the outcomes of these actions are not generally determinable, the Company believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, cash flows or results of operations. Litigation relating to the content delivery network services industry is not uncommon, and the Company is, and from time to time has been, subject to such litigation. No assurances can be given with respect to the extent or outcome of any such litigation in the future.
14. Net Income (Loss) per Share
The Company calculates basic and diluted earnings per weighted average share based on net income (loss) and includes the restricted stock as participating securities. The Company uses the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the restricted stock for the computation of basic earnings per share. Diluted earnings per share include the dilutive effect of convertible stock options and restricted stock units in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Net income (loss) from continuing operations is utilized in determining whether potential commons shares are dilutive or antidilutive for purposes of computing diluted net income (loss) per share.
The following table sets forth the components used in the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for the periods indicated (in thousands, except per share data):

16. Stockholders Equity
Common Stock
On September 12, 2011, the Companys board of directors approved a repurchase plan that authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $25 million of its shares of common stock, exclusive of any commissions, markups or expenses, from time to time through March 12, 2012. Any repurchased shares will be cancelled and return to authorized but unissued status. During the period September 12, 2011 through September 30, 2011, the Company purchased and cancelled approximately 3.8 million shares of common stock for approximately $9.1 million (excluding commissions, markups or expenses) under the repurchase plan.
At the Companys annual meeting on June 9, 2011, the stockholders approved an amendment to the Companys Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the Companys common stock, par value $0.001 per share, from 150,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares. The amendment was previously approved by the Companys board
22
of directors on February 8, 2011. Following these approvals, on June 13, 2011, the Company filed the amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the state of Delaware, thereby increasing the authorized shares of the Companys common stock.
On March 2, 2011 the Company completed an underwritten public offering of its common stock in which it sold and issued 11,500,000 shares of its common stock, including 1,500,000 shares subject to the underwriters over-allotment option, at a price to the public of $7.10 per share. The newly issued common shares began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on March 2, 2011. The Company raised a total of approximately $81.7 million in gross proceeds from the offering, or approximately $77.1 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $4.0 million and other offering costs of approximately $0.6 million. The offering was made pursuant to the effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-170609) previously filed with and declared effective by the SEC on November 26, 2010 and the prospectus supplement thereunder filed with the SEC on February 28, 2011.
On May 2, 2011, the Company acquired Clickability, a privately-held SaaS provider of web content management (WCM) located in San Francisco, California. The purchase price included approximately 732,000 shares of the Companys common stock with an estimated fair value on the acquisition date of approximately $4.6 million. The Company issued approximately 382,000 common shares at the closing with an estimated fair value of approximately $2.4 million. Under the terms of the merger agreement, approximately 350,000 shares of the common stock portion of the purchase price or approximately $2.2 million will remain unissued for a period of up to 18 months following the closing date to satisfy any unresolved claims. See Note 4 for a more detailed description of the Clickability acquisition.
On May 9, 2011, the Company acquired AcceloWeb, a privately-held provider of advanced technology that helps speed the presentation of web sites and applications located in Tel Aviv, Israel. The purchase price included 1,100,629 shares of the Companys common stock issued at closing with an estimated fair value of approximately $7.0 million on the acquisition date. See Note 4 for a more detailed description of the AcceloWeb acquisition.

Unrecognized share-based compensation expense totaled $31.5 million at September 30, 2011, of which approximately $20.0 million related to stock options and approximately $11.5 million related to RSUs. The Company currently expects to amortize approximately $4.2 million during the remainder of 2011, $14.3 million in 2012 and the remainder thereafter based upon the scheduled vesting of the stock options, restricted stock awards and units outstanding at that time.
In May 2009, the Company granted 282,168 performance based RSUs to various employees. As of September 30, 2011, 206,547 of these RSUs remained outstanding. The performance based RSUs will only vest if a specific revenue target is achieved in any one quarter during the ten full quarters following the date of the grant and provided the employee remains with the Company through the vesting date. The Company determined that the performance requirement was achieved during the third quarter of 2011, and accordingly, the RSUs are now subject to time-based vesting.
23
On February 26, 2010, the Company granted 300,000 performance-based RSUs to the Companys CEO. The RSUs granted became eligible for vesting based upon the achievement of certain financial performance targets related to the earn-out feature described in the Agreement and Plan of Merger to acquire EyeWonder, Inc. The performance requirements were not achieved and the RSUs were cancelled in April 2011.
On December 30, 2010, the Company approved an award of 300,000 performance-based RSUs to the Companys CEO. All or a portion of the RSUs granted to the CEO (and not forfeited) may become eligible for vesting in three tranches of 100,000 RSUs based upon the achievement of certain financial performance targets, provided that the CEO remains an employee or service provider of the Company on each vesting date. RSUs that do not become eligible are forfeited. As of September 30, 2011, the performance requirements related to two tranches totaling 200,000 RSUs have been established and the Company estimates that the performance requirements related to one of these tranches are probable of being achieved. The performance requirement related to the third tranche will be established in the first quarter of 2012.
On February 17, 2011 the Company granted 525,000 stock options to certain executive officers. Each of the stock option awards vest one forty-eighth (1/48th) on February 1, 2011, and one forty-eighth (1/48th) each month thereafter on the first day of each month, provided the executive officer remains with the Company through each such vesting date.
On September 14, 2011 the Company granted 200,000 stock options to the Companys CEO. One hundred percent (100%) of the stock option award shall vest on December 31, 2012, provided the executive officer remains a service provider to the Company through the vesting date. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the employment agreement between the CEO and the Company, in the event of a Change of Control, one hundred percent (100%) of the awards described herein shall vest on the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days following a Change of Control, provided that the officer remains a Service Provider on such date, and (ii) termination of the employment of the officer without Cause in connection with a Change of Control (as such terms are defined in the grant agreement).
On September 14, 2011 the Company granted 790,000 RSUs to certain executives of the Company. One hundred percent (100%) of the RSUs award shall vest on December 31, 2012, provided the executive officer remains a service provider to the Company through the vesting date. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the employment agreement between the officer and the Company, in the event of a Change of Control, one hundred percent (100%) of the RSUs described herein shall vest on the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days following a Change of Control, provided that the officer remains a Service Provider on such date, and (ii) termination of the employment of the officer without Cause in connection with a Change of Control (as such terms are defined in the grant agreement).

20. Income taxes
Income taxes for the interim periods presented have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements on the basis of an estimated annual effective tax rate. Based upon the Companys estimated annual effective tax rate and discrete items, the tax benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was approximately $1.9 and $1.3 million, respectively. For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company had tax expense of approximately $0.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The income tax benefit of $1.3 million on the Companys loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $25.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was comprised of an income tax benefit of $2.1 million on losses from continuing operations recorded as a result of the sale of EyeWonder and chors offset by $0.7 million for income taxes related primarily to our foreign operations and $0.1 million for state tax expense. The Companys effective income tax rate was different than its statutory income tax rate due primarily to providing for a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions, recording of foreign tax for the period, and recording of a tax benefit on losses from continuing operations related to the sale of EyeWonder and chors.
In general, the amount of tax expense or benefit allocated to continuing operations is determined without regard to the tax effects of other categories of income or loss, such as discontinued operations. However, an exception to the general rule is provided in ASC 740-20-45-7 when there is a pre-tax loss from continuing operations and there are items charged or credited to other categories, including discontinued operations, in the current year. Pursuant to ASC 740-20-45-7, the gain from discontinued operations was considered in determining the $2.1 million tax benefit allocated to the loss from continuing operations.
25
The sale of EyeWonder and chors resulted in an estimated gain for tax purposes of approximately $52.0 million. The Company anticipates that it will utilize a significant portion of its deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryforwards to offset the gain on the sale. There is no Federal or foreign income taxes payable expected as a result of the sale. Estimated state taxes of $0.7 million related to the sale has been recorded in discontinued operations.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, management performed an assessment of the recoverability of deferred tax assets. Management determined that there was sufficient negative evidence as a result of the Companys cumulative losses to conclude that it was more likely than not that its deferred tax assets would not be realized and the Company accordingly maintained its existing valuation allowance.
As of September 30, 2011, the Company has approximately $53,000 of total unrecognized tax benefits. This total of unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate. Unrecognized tax benefits did not change materially for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The Company anticipates its unrecognized tax benefits will continue to decrease within twelve months of the reporting date, as a result of settling potential tax liabilities in certain foreign jurisdictions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its tax provision. As of September 30, 2011, the Company has recorded a liability of $141,000 for the accrual of deficiency interest and penalties, which did not materially change during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.
The Company files United States federal, United States state, and foreign income tax returns. For United States federal, and for certain United States state tax returns, the fiscal 2007 through 2010 tax years remain open for examination by tax authorities. The Company is not currently under examination by any taxing authorities.
21. Segment Reporting
The Company operates in one industry segment content delivery network services. The Company operates in three geographic areas North America, EMEA and Asia Pacific.
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Companys chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer. The Companys Chief Executive Officer reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Company has one business activity and there are no segment managers who are held accountable for operations, operating results and plans for products or components below the consolidated unit level. Accordingly, the Company reports as a single operating segment.
Revenue by geography is based on the location of the customer from which the revenue is earned. The following table sets forth revenue and long-lived assets by geographic area (in thousands):

22. Fair Value Measurements
The Company evaluates certain of its financial instruments within the three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:
26
Level 1 |
| defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; | ||
Level 2 |
| defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and | ||
Level 3 |
| defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. |
As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company held certain assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These include commercial paper, corporate notes and bonds and US Government Agency Bonds, and publicly traded stocks, which are classified as marketable securities and acquisition related contingent consideration which is classified as a current liability on the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheet.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, realized gains and losses for marketable securities are reported in interest income, unrealized gains and losses for marketable securities are included in other comprehensive income and expense. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company had net unrealized losses of approximately $424,000.
The fair value measurement for the contingent consideration is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. Level 3 instruments are valued based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the Companys own assumptions in measuring fair value.

(1) | The Company previously classified all of its marketable securities as using Level 1 inputs. The Company has determined that the pricing methods for these investments use significant other observable inputs. Accordingly, such investments held in prior periods have been reclassified to correct the prior year presentation. The reclassification had no impact on the fair value of investments in any period presented. |

The carrying amount of cash equivalents approximates fair value because their maturity is less than three months. The carrying amount of short-term and long-term marketable securities approximates fair value as the securities are marked to market as of each balance sheet date with any unrealized gains and losses reported in stockholders equity. The carrying amount of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of the amounts.
ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 included in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 11, 2011. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include statements as to industry trends and future expectations of ours and other matters that do not relate strictly to historical facts. These statements are often identified by the use of words such as may, will, expect, believe, anticipate, intend, could, estimate, or continue, and similar expressions or variations. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of our management based on information currently available to management. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results and the timing of certain events to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in the section titled Risk Factors set forth in Part II, Item 1A of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and in our other SEC filings. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements. Prior period information has been modified to conform to current year presentation.
Overview
We were founded in 2001 as a provider of content delivery network (CDN) services to deliver digital content over the Internet. We began development of our infrastructure in 2001 and began generating meaningful revenue in 2002. We derive revenue from the sale of services to our customers. These services include the delivery of digital media, including video, music, games, software and social media, the acceleration of web sites and web-based applications, and value-added services such as mobility, storage, video and web content management and consulting. We also provide on-demand software, platform, and infrastructure services that help global businesses reach and engage audiences on mobile or connected devices, enabling them to enhance their brand presence, build stronger customer relationships, manage video assets, analyze viewer preferences, optimize their advertising, and monetize their digital assets. We operate in one business segment. We provide services to customers in North America, EMEA, and the Asia Pacific region. As of September 30, 2011, we had approximately 1,602 active customers worldwide.
Our CDN and web content management customers generally execute contracts with terms of one year or longer, which we refer to as recurring revenue contracts or long-term contracts. These contracts generally commit the customer to a minimum monthly level of usage with additional charges applicable for actual usage above the monthly minimum commitment. We define usage as customer data sent or received using our CDN service, or content that is hosted or cached by us at the request or direction of our customer. Usage is tracked using a software system that measures either the gigabytes transferred (GB Transfer) or megabits per second (Mbps) of usage per customer per month. GB Transfer measures usage by counting each GB of a customers content that is sent or received using our network. Mbps measures usage by determining the rate at which a customers content moves across our network. We have entered into an increasing number of customer contracts that have minimum usage commitments that are based on twelve-month or longer periods and in some cases, other arrangements. The nature of services provided as part of the minimum commitment may vary by customer; but substantially all of the services provided by us and associated with a minimum commitment
29
are core CDN services. We believe that having a consistent and predictable base level of revenue is important to our financial success. Accordingly, to be successful, we must maintain our base of recurring revenue contracts by eliminating or reducing any customer cancellations or terminations and build on that base by adding new customers and increasing the number of services, features and functionalities our existing customers purchase. We also derive revenue from services and events sold as discrete, non-recurring events or based solely on usage. For these services, we recognize revenue after an enforceable contract has been signed by both parties, the fee is fixed or determinable, the event or usage has occurred and collection is reasonably assured.
We have continued to expand our value-added services as more content and advertising dollars shift online, there is continued growth in mobile devices, and software applications and information technology services are shifting to cloud computing. We believe that these industry-wide trends may drive demand for our value-added services. In the third quarter of 2011, we introduced new releases of software-as-a-service (SaaS), and platform-as-a-service solutions that are synergistic with our CDN, such as the Limelight Video Platform, our online video platform solution, Limelight Dynamic Site Platform, our web content management platform, Limelight Dynamic Site for Mobile, our mobile publishing service, Limelight Accelerate, our web and application acceleration service and Limelight Agile Storage, our cloud storage solution, which we believe may drive growth and higher margins over time.
In addition to expanding our value-added services, we have also continued to expand the capacity and capabilities, and to enhance the performance and efficiency of our CDN platform. Although we believe that we may have improved margins in our CDN as we expand our customer base and use a greater proportion of our capacity, we expect the majority of our margin increases to result from our value-added services increasing as a percentage of our revenue.
On September 12, 2011, our board of directors approved a repurchase plan in compliance with Rules 10b-18 and 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that authorizes us to repurchase up to $25 million of our shares of common stock, exclusive of any commissions, markups or expenses, from time to time through March 12, 2012. Any repurchased shares will be cancelled and return to authorized but unissued status. During the three month period ended September 30, 2011, we repurchased and cancelled 3,809,800 shares at an average price per share of approximately $2.40 per share. The price range of the shares repurchased was between $2.23 and $2.55 per share. The total amount expended before commissions, markups and expenses was approximately $9,133,841.
On September 1, 2011, we completed the sale of our EyeWonder LLC and chors GmbH video and rich media advertising services business (EyeWonder and chors) to DG FastChannel, Inc. (DG) for net proceeds of $61.0 million ($66.0 million gross cash proceeds less $5.0 million held in escrow) plus an estimated $10.9 million receivable. Accordingly, the results related to the sale of EyeWonder and chors for the third quarter and prior periods have been reclassified to discontinued operations and have not been included in our managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations. At the time of purchase, we were pursuing a strategy of business growth through our core content delivery services and our value added services offerings which through the acquisition provided us access directly to the Rich Media advertising market. Rich Media refers to online advertising that uses a range of interactive digital media, including streaming video and audio. We subsequently determined to concentrate our value added services in mobility, web and video content management, web application acceleration, cloud storage, and consulting which we collectively refer to as our software-as-a-service solutions (SaaS). This transaction will enable us to focus on continuing to grow and invest in our globally distributed computing platform and our rapidly expanding SaaS solutions. See Note 5 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional information about the sale of our EyeWonder and chors rich media advertising services business.
On March 2, 2011 we completed an underwritten public offering of our common stock in which we sold and issued 11,500,000 shares of our common stock, including 1,500,000 shares subject to the underwriters over-allotment option, at a price to the public of $7.10 per share. The newly issued common shares began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on March 2, 2011. We raised a total of approximately $81.7 million in gross proceeds from the offering, or approximately $77.1 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $4.0 million and other offering costs of approximately $0.6 million. The offering was made pursuant to the effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-170609) previously filed with and declared effective by the SEC on November 26, 2010 and the prospectus supplement thereunder filed with the SEC on February 28, 2011.
On May 2, 2011, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Clickability Inc. (Clickability), a privately-held SaaS provider of web content management located in San Francisco, California. The aggregate purchase price consisted of approximately $4.9 million of cash paid at the closing (cash paid net of cash acquired was $2.8 million), $0.1 million held by us to cover future claims and 732,000 shares of our common stock with an estimated fair value of approximately $4.6 million on the date of acquisition. We issued 382,000 common shares at the closing with an estimated fair value of approximately $2.4 million. Under the terms of the merger agreement, approximately 350,000 shares of the common stock portion of the purchase price or approximately $2.2 million and $0.1 million of cash will remain unissued for a period of up to 18 months following the closing date to satisfy any unresolved future claims. See Note 4 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional information about our Clickability acquisition. As of September 30, 2011, there had been no claims made against the unissued shares.
On May 9, 2011, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of AcceloWeb, (IL) Ltd. (AcceloWeb), a Tel Aviv, Israel based privately-held provider of advanced technology that helps speed the presentation of web sites and applications. The aggregate purchase price consisted of approximately $5.0 million of cash paid at the closing (cash paid net of cash acquired was $4.7 million) and 1,100,629 shares of our common stock issued at closing with an estimated fair value of approximately $7.0 million on the acquisition date. In addition, the purchase price included contingent consideration with an aggregate value of $0.8 million ($0.4 million payable in cash and $0.4 million payable in our common stock) which may be earned upon the achievement of certain performance milestones which will be measured quarterly during the eight full consecutive quarters ending June 30, 2013. The fair value of the contingent consideration at September 30, 2011 was $0.8 million. See Note 4 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional information about our AcceloWeb acquisition.

Traffic on our network and our value-added services business has continued to grow. This traffic growth is primarily the result of growth in the traffic delivered to existing customers and to a lesser extent on behalf of new customers. Our CDN revenue is generated by charging for traffic delivered. While our traffic continued to grow, our revenue generated from such traffic grew at a much slower rate as a result of unit price compression. Our value-added services revenue represented substantially all of our revenue growth during the three month period ended September 30, 2011. During 2010, we added new customers both through new business and through our business acquisitions. During the three month period ended September 30, 2011, we continued to add new customers and also elected not to renew certain customers as we continue to focus on customer quality. Our average number of products per customer is 1.8.
Historically, we have derived a portion of our revenue from outside of the United States. Our international revenue has grown recently, and we expect this trend to continue as we focus on our strategy of expanding our network and customer base internationally. For the year ended December 31, 2010, revenue derived from customers outside North America accounted for approximately 27% of our total revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2010 we derived approximately 57% of our international revenue from EMEA and approximately 43% of our international revenue from Asia Pacific. For the three month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, revenue derived from customers outside North America accounted for approximately 32% and 30%, respectively, of our total revenue. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 revenue derived from customers outside North America accounted for approximately 31% and 28%, respectively, of our total revenue. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, we derived approximately 46% and 50%, respectively, of our international revenue from EMEA and approximately 54% and 50%, respectively, of our international revenue from Asia Pacific. We expect foreign revenue to continue to increase in absolute dollars in 2011. Our international business is managed as a single-geographic segment, and we report our financial results on this basis.
During any given fiscal period, a relatively small number of customers typically account for a significant percentage of our revenue. For example, in 2010 sales to our top 10 customers, in terms of revenue, accounted for approximately 34% of our total revenue and we had no customer that accounted for more than 10% of our revenue. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, sales to our top 10 customers, in terms of revenue, accounted for approximately 35% and 34%, respectively, of our total revenue. During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 we had one customer, Netflix, Inc. (Netflix) that accounted for more than 10% of our revenue during the period. During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, Netflix represented approximately 12% and 11%, respectively, of our total revenue. We anticipate customer concentration levels will remain consistent with 2010. In addition to selling to our direct customers, we maintain relationships with a number of resellers that purchase our services for resale to their end customers. Revenue generated from sales to reseller customers accounted for approximately 5% of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2010. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, revenue generated from sales to reseller customers accounted for approximately 4% of our total revenue.
In addition to these revenue related business trends, our cost of revenue increased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010. The three month period ended September 30, 2011 includes a full quarter of cost of revenue for Clickability and AcceloWeb that we acquired in May 2011. The nine month period ended September 30, 2011 includes five months of cost of revenue for Clickability and AcceloWeb. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily due to increased bandwidth and co-location fees, due to increased traffic and expansion of our CDN, increased depreciation expense on our network equipment, as we continue to build-out our expanding network and refresh our network equipment, and increased payroll and related employee costs for operations personnel, who are responsible for managing and monitoring our CDN and delivery of our value-added services.
Operating expenses increased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2010. The three month period ended September 30, 2011 includes a full quarter of operating expenses from our recent acquisitions of Clickability and AcceloWeb. This increase was primarily due to increased general and administrative costs (primarily increased bad debt expense, increased facilities and facilities related costs and increased litigation expenses), increased research and development costs (primarily payroll and related employee costs due to increased staffing), and increased non-network related depreciation and amortization (primarily due to increased amortization of intangible assets from our business acquisitions). These increases in general and administrative expense and research and development expense were offset by lower sales and marketing expenses. The decrease in sales and marketing expense was primarily due to decreased payroll and related employee costs.
For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, operating expenses increased in absolute dollars and remained constant as a percentage of revenue compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. The nine month period ended September 30, 2011 includes five months of operating expenses from our recent acquisitions of Clickability and AcceloWeb. This increase was primarily due to increased general and administrative costs (primarily payroll and related employee costs, due to increased staffing, and increased facility and facilities related costs, offset by lower litigations expenses and lower bad debt expense), increased sales and marketing expenses (primarily increased marketing expenses and increased employee events, offset by a decrease in share-based compensation), increased research and development costs (primarily payroll and related employee costs due to increased staffing and increased share-based compensation) and increased non-network related depreciation and amortization (primarily due to increased amortization of intangible assets from our business acquisitions).

We make our capital investment decisions based upon careful evaluation of a number of variables, such as the amount of traffic we anticipate on our network, the cost of the physical infrastructure required to deliver that traffic, and the forecasted capacity utilization of our network. Our capital expenditures have varied over time, in particular as we purchased servers and other network equipment associated with our network build-out. For example, in 2008, 2009, and 2010 we made capital purchases of $17.4 million, $20.4 million, and $33.6 million, respectively. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, we made capital investments of $26.9 million. We expect to have ongoing capital expenditure requirements as we continue to invest in, refresh and expand our CDN. For 2011, we currently anticipate making aggregate capital expenditures of approximately 17%-18% of total revenue for the year.
For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, we generated revenue from certain customers that are entities related to certain of our executives or members of our board of directors. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, revenue generated from related parties was less than 1% of our total revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we did not generate any revenue from related parties.
We are currently engaged in litigation with one of our principal competitors, Akamai Technologies, Inc. (Akamai) and its licensor, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in which these parties have alleged that we are infringing three of their patents. In February 2008, a jury returned a verdict in this lawsuit, finding that we infringed four claims of the patent at issue (United States Patent No. 6,108,703 (the 703 patent) and rejecting our invalidity defenses. The court conducted a bench trial in November 2008, regarding our equitable defenses; and we filed a motion for reconsideration of the courts earlier denial of our motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law (JMOL). Our motion for reconsideration of JMOL was based largely upon a clarification in the standard for a finding of joint infringement articulated by the Federal Circuit in the case of Muniauction, Inc. v. Thomson Corp. (the Muniauction Case), released after the court denied our initial motion for JMOL. On April 24, 2009 the court issued its order and memorandum setting aside the adverse jury verdict and ruling that we did not infringe Akamais 703 patent and that we are entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Based upon the courts April 24, 2009 order we reversed the $65.6 million provision for litigation previously recorded for this lawsuit as we no longer believe that payment of any amounts represented by the litigation provision is probable. The court entered final judgment in favor of us on May 22, 2009. Akamai filed a notice of appeal of the courts decision on May 26, 2009; and the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit heard arguments by both parties on June 7, 2010. On December 20, 2010 the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued its opinion affirming the District Courts entry of judgment in our favor. On February 18, 2011, Akamai filed a motion with the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit seeking a rehearing and rehearing en banc. On April 21, 2011, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued an order denying the petition for rehearing, granting the petition for rehearing en banc, vacating the December 20, 2010 opinion affirming the District Courts entry of judgment in our favor, and reinstated the appeal. The Federal Circuit will hear oral arguments on November 18, 2011, and issue its opinion after that date. We believe that we do not infringe Akamais patents and will continue to vigorously defend our position. We are not able at this time to estimate the range of potential loss nor, in light of the favorable United States district court order, do we believe that a loss is probable. Therefore, we have made no provision for this lawsuit in our financial statements.
Our future results will be affected by many factors, including those identified in the section captioned Risk Factors, in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, and our ability to:
| increase our revenue by adding customers and limiting customer cancellations and terminations, as well as increasing the amount of monthly recurring revenue that we derive from our existing customers; |
| manage the prices we charge for our services, as well as the costs associated with operating our network in light of increased competition; |
| successfully manage our litigation with Akamai to a favorable conclusion; |
| prevent disruptions to our services and network due to accidents or intentional attacks; |
| continued ability to deliver a portion of our traffic through settlement free peering relationships which significantly reduce our cost of delivery; and |
| successfully integrate the businesses we have acquired. |
As a result, we cannot assure you that we will achieve our expected financial objectives, including positive net income.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, which have been prepared by us in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim periods. These principles require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, cash flow and related disclosure
32
of contingent assets and liabilities. Our estimates include those related to revenue recognition, accounts receivable and related reserves, useful lives and realizability of long-term assets, capitalized software, acquired intangibles, provision for litigation, income and other taxes, the fair value of stock-based compensation and other contingent liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our results may differ from these estimates due to actual outcomes being different from those on which we based our assumptions. We review these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We also have other policies that we consider key accounting policies, such as our policy regarding foreign currency translation described below; however, we do not believe this policy requires us to make estimates or judgments that are as difficult or subjective as those noted above and disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2011.
Foreign Currency Translation
We analyze the functional currency for each of our international subsidiaries periodically to determine if a significant change in facts and circumstances indicate that the primary economic currency has changed. As of December 31, 2010, the international subsidiaries we acquired as part of the EyeWonder, Inc. and chors acquisitions had local currencies as their functional currencies, while our remaining international subsidiaries had the United States dollar as their functional currencies. During the first quarter of 2011, we analyzed the various economic factors of our international subsidiaries and determined that the operations of our subsidiaries that were previously determined to operate in a United States dollar functional currency environment had changed and that their functional currencies should be changed to the local currencies. Effective January 1, 2011, the adjustment from translating these subsidiaries financial statements from the local currency to the United States dollar was recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. These foreign currency translation adjustments reflect the translation of the balance sheet at period end exchange rates and the income statement at an average exchange rate in effect during each period. Upon the change in functional currency, we recorded a cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) of approximately $0.5 million, which is included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Because of the change in exchange rates between reporting periods and changes in certain account balances, the foreign currency translation adjustment will change from period to period.
As of September 30, 2011, there have been no material changes to any of the critical accounting policies as described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2011.

Revenue increased 6%, or $2.4 million, to $42.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $40.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in revenue for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily attributable to an increase in our value-added services revenue of approximately $5.1 million. Our value-added services revenue, which collectively refers to our SaaS solutions for mobility, web and video content management, web application acceleration, cloud storage, and consulting, includes revenue from the date of acquisition of Delve, Clickability and AcceloWeb. The increase in value-added services revenue is primarily attributable to increases in our web content management, storage, video publishing and mobile product offerings. The increase in value-added services revenue was offset by a decrease in our CDN revenue of approximately $2.7 million. Of this decrease, approximately $2.2 million is due to a reduction in our network pop-build and license revenue from Microsoft. We continued to increase the amount of traffic moving through our network; however the revenue generated from the increase in traffic grew at a much lower rate and we continue to see a decline in our average unit sales price and a decline in network services revenue. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, total revenues increased 13%, or $14.1 million, to $125.3 million as compared to $111.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in revenue for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year was attributable to an increase in our value-added services revenue of approximately $14.1 million. The increase in value-added services revenue was attributable to increases in our web content management, storage, video publishing and mobile product offerings. As of September 30, 2011, we had approximately 1,602 customers compared to approximately 1,565 as of September 30, 2010. This increase in customers is primarily the result of new customers acquired through our acquisitions of Clickability and AcceloWeb.
For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, approximately 32% and 30%, respectively, of our total revenues were derived from our operations located outside of North America. For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, we derived approximately 46% and 60%, respectively, of our international revenue from EMEA and approximately 54% and 40%,
33
respectively, of our international revenue from Asia Pacific. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, approximately 31% and 28%, respectively, of our total revenues were derived from our operations located outside of North America. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, we derived approximately 50% and 58%, respectively, of our international revenue from EMEA and approximately 50% and 42%, respectively, of our international revenue from Asia Pacific. No single country outside of the United States accounted for 10% or more of revenues during these periods.

Cost of revenue includes fees paid to network providers for bandwidth and backbone, costs incurred for non settlement free peering and connection to Internet service provider networks (ISPs), and fees paid to data center operators for co-location of our network equipment. Cost of revenue also includes depreciation of network equipment used to deliver our CDN services, payroll and related costs and equity-related compensation for our network operations, operations and value-added services personnel.
Cost of revenue increased 9%, or $2.3 million, to $27.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $25.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. These increases were primarily due to an increase in depreciation of $1.2 million, due to increased amounts of deployed assets, as we continue to build-out our expanding network and to refresh our network equipment, an increase in aggregate bandwidth and co-location fees of $1.0 million due to higher traffic levels, increased peering costs, and increased amounts of deployed network assets, an increase in payroll and related employee costs of $0.6 million associated with increased staff to build and operate our CDN, as well as increased operations personnel from our business acquisitions whose primary focus is on our delivery of value-added services. These increases were offset by a decrease in other costs of $0.8 million. The decrease in other costs is primarily related to $0.7 million of costs in 2010 associated with the sale of equipment to a customer.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, cost of revenues increased 21%, or $14.0 million, to $81.9 million as compared to $67.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. These increases were primarily due to an increase in aggregate bandwidth and co-location fees of $5.9 million due to higher traffic levels, increased peering costs, and increased amounts of deployed network assets, an increase in depreciation of $5.1 million, due to increased amounts of deployed assets, as we continue to build-out our expanding network and to refresh our network equipment, and an increase in payroll and related employee costs of $2.5 million associated with increased staff to build and operate our CDN, as well as increased operations personnel from our business acquisitions whose primary focus is on our delivery of value-added services. Additionally, we had increases in professional fees and outside services of $0.3 million, an increase in travel and travel-related expenses of $0.3 million and an increase in royalty expense of $0.3 million. These increases were offset by a decrease in other costs of $0.5 million. The decrease in other costs is primarily related to $0.8 million of costs in 2010 associated with the sale of equipment to a customer and reduced fees and licenses of approximately $0.2 million. These decreases were offset by an increase of approximately $0.5 million in other costs associated with the delivery of our services.
Cost of revenue share-based compensation expense decreased $0.1 million during the three month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2010. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, share-based compensation expense remained constant at $1.8 million.

We have long-term purchase commitments for bandwidth usage and co-location with various Tier 1 network providers and data center operators. The minimum commitments related to bandwidth usage and co-location services under agreements currently in effect are approximately: $9.5 million for the remainder of 2011, $29.3 million for 2012, $18.2 million for 2013, $16.5 million for 2014 and $16.6 million for 2015 and beyond.
We anticipate cost of revenues will increase in 2011 compared to 2010, due in part to the inclusion in 2011 of a partial year of expenses from our recent business acquisitions of Clickability and AcceloWeb in May 2011. We also expect to deliver more traffic on our network, which will result in higher expenses associated with the increased bandwidth, peering, rack and co-location costs to support increased traffic; however, such costs are likely to be partially offset by lower bandwidth costs per unit. We anticipate depreciation expense related to our network equipment to increase compared to 2010, as we continue to expand our network and to refresh older servers. Additionally, we expect an increase in payroll and related costs, as we continue to make investments in our network to service our expanding customer base as well as our increase in value-added services personnel. We expect that 2011 cost of revenue share-based compensation expense will remain consistent with 2010.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of the following components:
| payroll, share-based compensation and other related costs, including related expenses for executive, finance, legal, business applications, internal network management, human resources and other administrative personnel; |
| fees for professional services and litigation expenses; |
| rent and other facility-related expenditures for leased properties; |
| the provision for doubtful accounts; and |
| non-income related taxes. |
General and administrative expenses increased 33%, or $2.1 million, to $8.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $6.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to an increase in bad debt expense of $0.9 million, an increase in litigation expenses of $0.5 million, an increase in payroll and related employee costs of $0.2 million which was primarily due to new hires and to a lesser extent to the addition of general and administrative personnel of our business acquisitions, and an increase in other costs of $0.8 million, primarily due to increased facilities and facilities related costs of $0.4 million, increased fees, licenses and non-income taxes of $0.2 million, and a increase in telephone and general office expenses (office and computer supplies, postage and shipping) of approximately $0.1 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, general and administrative expenses increased 5%, or $1.1 million, to $23.5 million as compared to $22.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to an increase in payroll and related employee costs of $1.1 million which were primarily due to new hires and to a lesser extent to the addition of general and administrative personnel of our business acquisitions, an increase in travel and travel related expenses of $0.2 million, and an increase in other costs of $1.6 million, primarily due to increased facilities and facilities related costs of $0.8 million, increased fees, licenses and non-income taxes of $0.6 million, and a increase in telephone and general office expenses (office and computer supplies, postage and shipping) of approximately $0.2 million. These increases were offset by a decrease in litigation expenses of $1.0 million and a decrease in bad debt expense of $0.3 million.
Other expenses include such items as rent, utilities, telephone, insurance, fees and licenses and property taxes.

Additionally, general and administrative share-based compensation expense decreased $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same periods of the prior year.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in 2011 compared to 2010 due in part to the inclusion in 2011 of a partial year of expenses from our recent business acquisitions of Clickability and AcceloWeb in May 2011, as well as increased facility costs. These increases will be offset partly by reduced litigation and professional fees. In 2012 and in the longer term, we expect our general and administrative expense to decrease as a percentage of revenue as our costs are expected to grow slower than our top line revenue. We expect that general and administrative share-based compensation expense will decrease in 2011 compared to 2010. The decrease is primarily due to lower stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock units granted in prior years.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of payroll and related costs, share-based compensation and commissions for personnel engaged in marketing, sales and service support functions, professional fees (consultants and recruiting fees), travel and travel-related expenses as well as advertising and promotional expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased 8%, or $0.8 million, to $9.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to a decrease in payroll and related employee costs of $0.6 million. This decrease was the result of lower variable compensation ($0.9 million) offset by an increase in salaries of approximately $0.3 million, primarily due to increased staffing, plus the addition of sales and marketing personnel from our business acquisitions. In addition, share-based compensation decreased $0.6 million when compared to the same period of the prior year. These decreases were offset by an increase in other costs of $0.3 million, primarily due to increased facilities and facility related costs of approximately $0.2 million and employee events of approximately $0.1 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, sales and marketing expenses increased 4%, or $1.0 million, to $29.9 million, as compared to $28.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in sales and marketing expenses for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to an increase in marketing programs of approximately $0.9 million and an increase in other costs of $1.3 million offset by a decrease in share-based compensation of $0.8 million and a decrease in payroll and payroll related expenses of $0.3 million. The increase in other costs was primarily due to increased employee events of $0.5 million, increased fees and licenses of $0.3 million, increased facility and facility related costs of $0.3 million, and an increase in telephone costs of $0.2 million. Other expenses include such items as rent and property taxes for our Europe and Asia Pacific sales offices, telephone, and office supplies.
As mentioned above, sales and marketing share-based compensation expense decreased $0.6 million during the three month period ended September 30, 2011 and $0.8 million during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same periods of the prior year.

Research and development expenses increased 50%, or $1.5 million, to $4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in research and development expenses in the three month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to an increase of $1.5 million in payroll and related employee costs. The increases in payroll and related employee costs is primarily associated with our hiring of additional network and software engineering personnel and the addition of research and development personnel resulting from our business acquisitions.

We anticipate our research and development expenses will increase in 2011 compared to 2010 due in part to the inclusion in 2011 of a partial year of expenses from our recent business acquisitions of Clickability and AcceloWeb in May 2011 and our continued investments in our core technology, refinements and additions to our other service offerings. We expect increased payroll and related employee costs associated with continued hiring of research and development personnel. We expect that research and development share-based compensation expense will increase in 2011 compared to 2010. The increase is primarily due to the granting of stock options and restricted stock units associated with our business acquisitions and the recognition of stock-based compensation expense related to performance based restricted stock units.

Depreciation expense consists of depreciation on equipment and furnishings used by general administrative, sales and marketing and research and development personnel. Amortization expense consists of amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations.
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased 114%, or $0.8 million, to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, depreciation and amortization expenses increased 68%, or $1.3 million, to $3.3 million, as compared to $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to an increase of approximately $0.7 million and $1.4 million respectively, in amortization of intangibles acquired in business combinations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, amortization of intangibles was approximately $0.8 million and $1.5 million respectively.

Based upon our estimated annual effective tax rate and discrete items, our tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was approximately $1.3 million, which included an income tax benefit of $2.1 million on losses from continuing operations recorded as a result of the sale of EyeWonder and chors offset by $0.7 million for income taxes related primarily to our foreign operations and $0.1 million for state tax expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 we had a tax expense of approximately $1.1 million. Our income tax benefit of $1.3 million on our loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $25.4 million was different than our statutory income tax rate due primarily to our providing for a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions, foreign tax for the period, and recording of a tax benefit on losses from continuing operations as a result of the sale of EyeWonder and chors. The effective income tax rate is based primarily upon forecasted income or loss for the year, the composition of the income or loss in different countries, and adjustments, if any, for the potential tax consequences, benefits or resolutions for tax audits.
In general, the amount of tax expense or benefit allocated to continuing operations is determined without regard to the tax effects of other categories of income or loss, such as discontinued operations. However, an exception to the general rule is provided in ASC 740-20-45-7 when there is a pre-tax loss from continuing operations and there are items charged or credited to other categories, including discontinued operations, in the current year. Pursuant to ASC 740-20-45-7, the gain from discontinued operations was considered in determining the $2.1 million tax benefit allocated to the loss from continuing operations.
The sale of EyeWonder and chors resulted in an estimated gain for tax purposes of approximately $52.0 million. We anticipate that we will utilize a significant portion of our deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryforwards as a result of the sale. There is no Federal or foreign income taxes payable expected as a result of the sale. Estimated state taxes of $0.7 million related to the sale has been recorded in discontinued operations.
39
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we performed an assessment of the recoverability of deferred tax assets. We determined that there was sufficient negative evidence as a result of our cumulative losses to conclude that it was more-likely-than-not that our deferred tax assets would not be realized and we accordingly maintained our existing valuation allowance.

Discontinued operations relates to our EyeWonder and chors rich media advertising services business. On September 1, 2011, we completed the sale of EyeWonder and chors to DG. The gain from discontinued operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 includes the gain on the sale. See Note 5 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional information about discontinued operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
To date, we have financed our operations primarily through the following transactions:
| private sales of common and preferred stock and subordinated notes; |
| an initial public offering of our common stock in June 2007; |
| an underwritten public offering of our common stock in March 2011; |
| borrowing on capital leases; |
| borrowing on credit facilities; |
| sale of EyeWonder and chors in September 2011; and |
| cash generated by operations. |
As of September 30, 2011, our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities classified as current totaled $157.8 million. Included in this amount, is approximately $5.0 million of cash and cash equivalents held outside the United States.
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $12.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The change in operating cash flows comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, was primarily due to a larger net loss from continuing operations in 2011 compared to 2010 in addition to changes in operating assets and liabilities. Cash used due to changes in operating assets and liabilities was $8.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to cash provided of $2.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The change relates primarily to greater cash usage during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 related primarily to increases in prepaid expenses and other current and long-term assets associated with advanced payments for bandwidth and backbone services with a telecommunications provider plus a decrease in deferred revenue offset by an increase in accounts payable.
We expect that cash provided by operating activities may not be sufficient to cover new purchases of property and equipment during 2011 and potential litigation expenses associated with patent litigation. The timing and amount of future working capital changes and our ability to manage our days sales outstanding will also affect the future amount of cash used in or provided by operating activities.

Cash provided by investing activities was $25.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to cash used in investing activities of $45.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Cash provided by investing activities was principally comprised of cash received from DG for the sale of EyeWonder and chors offset by cash used for the acquisition of businesses, the purchase of short-term marketable securities and capital expenditures primarily for computer equipment associated with the build-out and expansion of our CDN, offset by cash generated from the sale of short-term marketable securities.
40
On September 1, 2011, we sold EyeWonder and chors to DG for net proceeds of $61.0 million ($66.0 million gross cash proceeds less $5.0 million held in escrow) plus an estimated $10.9 million receivable.
On May 9, 2011, we acquired AcceloWeb, a Tel Aviv, Israel based privately-held provider of advanced technology that helps speed the presentation of web sites and applications. The purchase price included both cash and company stock for the acquisition. Cash paid, net of cash acquired, was $4.7 million.
On May 2, 2011, we acquired Clickability, a privately-held SaaS provider of web content management located in San Francisco, California. The purchase price included both cash and company stock for the acquisition. Cash paid, net of cash acquired, was $2.7 million.
On April 30, 2010 we acquired EyeWonder, Inc. EyeWonder, Inc. is a provider of interactive digital advertising products and services to advertisers, advertising agencies and publishers. The purchase price included both cash and company stock for the acquisition. Cash paid, net of cash acquired, was $61.9 million.
In January 2010, we acquired chors, an on-line and direct marketing solutions provider located in Germany. Cash paid, net of cash acquired for the chors acquisition was approximately $2.0 million.
We expect to have ongoing capital expenditure requirements as we continue to invest in and expand our CDN. We currently anticipate making aggregate capital expenditures of approximately 17%-18% of total revenue in 2011.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $66.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Net cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 primarily related to proceeds from the public offering of our common stock of approximately $77.0 million and the exercise of stock options of $0.6 million offset by payments made for the re-purchase of our common stock of approximately $9.2 million, payments of employee tax withholdings related to restricted stock of approximately $1.1 million and payments made on our capital lease obligations of approximately $1.0 million.
On September 12, 2011, our board of directors approved a repurchase plan that authorizes us to repurchase up to $25 million of our shares of common stock, exclusive of any commissions, markups or expenses, from time to time through March 12, 2012. Any repurchased shares will be cancelled and return to authorized but unissued status. During the period September 12, 2011 through September 30, 2011, we purchased approximately 3.8 million shares of common stock for approximately $9.1 million ($9.2 million including commissions, markups and expenses) under the repurchase plan.
On March 2, 2011, we completed an underwritten public offering of our common stock in which we sold and issued 11,500,000 shares of our common stock, including 1,500,000 shares subject to the underwriters over-allotment option, at a price to the public of $7.10 per share. The newly issued common shares began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on March 2, 2011. We raised a total of approximately $81.7 million in gross proceeds from the offering, or approximately $77.0 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $3.9 million and other offering costs of approximately $0.8 million.
As of September 30, 2011, we had no outstanding bank debt other than the aforementioned capital leases.
Changes in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are dependent upon changes in, among other things, working capital items such as deferred revenues, accounts payable, accounts receivable, accrued provision for litigation and various accrued expenses, as well as changes in our capital and financial structure due to debt repurchases and issuances, stock option exercises, sales of equity investments and similar events. We do not currently expect to have any significant cash outflows related to our discontinued operations
We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. If the assumptions underlying our business plan regarding future revenue and expenses change, or if unexpected opportunities or needs arise, we may seek to raise additional cash by selling equity or debt securities.
Contractual Obligations, Contingent Liabilities and Commercial Commitments
In the normal course of business, we make certain long-term commitments for operating leases, primarily office facilities, bandwidth and computer rack space. These leases expire on various dates ranging from 2011 to 2019. We expect that the growth of our business will require us to continue to add to and increase our long-term commitments in 2011 and beyond. As a result of our growth strategies, we believe that our liquidity and capital resources requirements will grow.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2011, we are not involved in any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To evaluate our business, we consider and use Non-GAAP net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of operating performance. These measures include the same adjustments that management takes into account when it reviews and assesses operating performance on a period-to-period basis. We consider Non-GAAP net income (loss) to be an important indicator of overall business performance because it allows us to illustrate the impact of the effects of share-based compensation, litigation expenses, provision for litigation, amortization of intangibles, acquisition related expenses and discontinued operations. We define EBITDA as GAAP net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, other income and expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and discontinued operations. We believe that EBITDA provides a useful metric to investors to compare us with other companies within our industry and across industries. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for operational expenses that we do not consider reflective of our ongoing operations. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to review and assess operating performance. We also believe use of Adjusted EBITDA facilitates investors use of operating performance comparisons from period to period. In addition, it should be noted that our performance-based executive officer bonus structure is tied closely to our performance as measured in part by certain non-GAAP financial measures.
In our November 7, 2011 earnings press release, as furnished on Form 8-K, we included Non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The terms Non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not defined under United States GAAP, and are not measures of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with United States GAAP. Our Non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, Non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for net income (loss) or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with United States GAAP. Some of these limitations include, but are not limited to:
| EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
| they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; |
| they do not reflect the cash requirements necessary for litigation costs; |
| they do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt that we may incur; |
| they do not reflect income taxes or the cash requirements for any tax payments; |
| although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will be replaced sometime in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; |
| while share-based compensation is a component of operating expense, the impact on our financial statements compared to other companies can vary significantly due to such factors as the assumed life of the options and the assumed volatility of our common stock; and |
42
| other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. |
We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Non-GAAP net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental support for managements analysis of business performance. Non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are calculated as follows for the periods presented.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In accordance with the requirements of Regulation G issued by the SEC, we are presenting the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and reconciling the non-GAAP financial metrics to the comparable GAAP measures.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our debt and investment portfolio. In our investment portfolio, we do not use derivative financial instruments. Our investments are primarily with our commercial and investment banks and, by policy, we limit the amount of risk by investing primarily in money market funds, United States Treasury obligations, high quality corporate and municipal obligations and certificates of deposit. We do not believe that a 10% change in interest rates would have a significant impact on our interest income, operating results or liquidity.
43
Foreign Currency Risk
We operate in North America, EMEA and Asia-Pacific. As a result of our international business activities, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or economic conditions in foreign markets, and there is no assurance that exchange rate fluctuations will not harm our business in the future. A large portion of our customer agreements are denominated in United States dollars; however, we may be exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates with respect to customer agreements with certain of our international customers. Although we will continue to monitor our exposure to currency fluctuations, and, where appropriate, may use financial hedging techniques in the future to minimize the effect of these fluctuations, we are not currently engaged in any financial hedging transactions. The impact of an aggregate decline of 10% in foreign currency exchange rates relative to the United States dollar on our results of operations and financial position could be material.
As of December 31, 2010, the international subsidiaries acquired as part of the EyeWonder, Inc. and chors acquisitions had local currencies as their functional currencies while our remaining international subsidiaries had the United States dollar as their functional currencies. During the first quarter of 2011, we analyzed the various economic factors of our international subsidiaries and determined that the operations of our subsidiaries that were previously determined to operate in a United States dollar functional currency environment had changed and that their functional currencies should be changed to the local currencies. Effective January 1, 2011, the adjustment from translating these subsidiaries financial statements from the local currency to the United States dollar was recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). These foreign currency translation adjustments reflect the translation of the balance sheet at period end exchange rates and the income statement at an average exchange rate in effect during each period. Upon the change in functional currency, we recorded a cumulative translation adjustment of approximately $0.5 million, which is included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Because of the change in exchange rates between reporting periods and changes in certain account balances, the foreign currency translation adjustment will change from period to period.
Inflation Risk
We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in SEC Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in SEC Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs 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 for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of September 30, 2011. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
We are involved in litigation with Akamai and MIT relating to a claim of patent infringement. The action was filed in June 2006 in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The trial date was set for February 2008 with respect to four claims in United States Patent No. 6,108,703 (the 703 patent). In February 2008, a jury returned a verdict in this lawsuit, finding that we infringed four claims of the 703 patent at issue and rejecting our invalidity defenses. The jury awarded an aggregate of approximately $45.5 million which includes lost profits, reasonable royalties and price
44
erosion damages for the period April 2005 through December 31, 2007. In addition, the jury awarded pre-judgment interest which we estimated to be $2.6 million at December 31, 2007. We recorded the aggregate $48.1 million as a provision for litigation as of December 31, 2007. During 2008, we recorded an additional provision of approximately $17.5 million for potential additional infringement damages and interest. On July 1, 2008, the court denied our motions for JMOL, Obviousness, and a New Trial. The court also denied Akamais Motion for Permanent Injunction as premature and denied its Motions for Summary Judgment regarding our equitable defenses. The court conducted a bench trial in November 2008 regarding our equitable defenses. We also filed a motion for reconsideration of the courts earlier denial of our motion for JMOL. Our motion for reconsideration of JMOL was based largely upon a clarification in the standard for a finding of joint infringement articulated by the Federal Circuit in the Muniauction Case, released after the court denied our initial motion for JMOL. On April 24, 2009 the court issued its order and memorandum setting aside the adverse jury verdict and ruling that we did not infringe Akamais 703 patent and that we are entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Based upon the courts April 24, 2009 order we have reversed the $65.6 million provision for litigation previously recorded for this lawsuit as we no longer believe that payment of any amounts represented by the litigation provision is probable. The court entered final judgment in favor of us. Akamai filed a notice of appeal of the courts decision on May 26, 2009. The Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit heard arguments by both parties on June 7, 2010. On December 20, 2010 the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued its opinion affirming the District Courts entry of judgment in our favor. On February 18, 2011, Akamai filed a motion with the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit seeking a rehearing and rehearing en banc. On April 21, 2011, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued an order denying the petition for rehearing, granting the petition for rehearing en banc, vacating the December 20, 2010 opinion affirming the District Courts entry of judgment in our favor, and reinstated the appeal. The Federal Circuit will hear oral arguments on November 18, 2011, and issue its opinion after that date. We believe that we do not infringe Akamais patents and will continue to vigorously defend our position. We are not able at this time to estimate the range of potential loss nor, in light of the favorable United States district court order, do we believe that a loss is probable. Therefore, we have made no provision for this lawsuit in our financial statements.
In the ordinary course of our business, we are also involved in a limited number of other legal actions, both as plaintiff and defendant, and could incur uninsured liability in any one or more of them. With respect to pending legal actions to which we are a party, although the outcomes of these actions are not generally determinable, we believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, cash flows or results of operations. Litigation relating to the content delivery network services industry is not uncommon, and we are, and from time to time have been, subject to such litigation. No assurances can be given with respect to the extent or outcome of any such litigation in the future.
ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
Investments in the equity securities of publicly traded companies involve significant risks. Our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results could be materially adversely affected by the risks identified below, as well as other risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. In assessing the risks described below, you should also refer to the information contained in this report on Form 10-Q, including our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and other documents that we file from time to time with the SEC.
Risks Related to Our Business
We are a party to a lawsuit with a significant competitor, and an adverse outcome in that lawsuit is possible, which could have a significant, adverse effect on our financial condition and operations. If an injunction were entered against us it could force us to cease providing some significant portion of our CDN services.
We are currently a defendant in one significant lawsuit and formerly a defendant in two other significant lawsuits, (see discussion in Legal Proceedings in Part II, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q). In the Akamai case, we currently have a favorable ruling, but we cannot provide any assurance that this favorable ruling wont be overturned or reversed on appeal, or that the ultimate outcome of that lawsuit wont be materially adverse to us. The expenses of defending these lawsuits and other lawsuits to which we are or may become a party, particularly fees paid to our lawyers and expert consultants, have been significant and may continue to adversely affect our operating results during the pendency of the lawsuits. Also, this litigation has been a distraction to our management in operating our business.
In February 2008, a jury returned a verdict in a patent infringement lawsuit filed by Akamai and MIT against us, finding that we infringed four claims of the patent at issue and rejecting our invalidity defenses. The jury awarded Akamai an aggregate of approximately $45.5 million in lost profits, reasonable royalties and price erosion damages, plus pre-judgment interest estimated to be $2.6 million that we recorded in 2007. During 2008 we recorded an additional provision of approximately $17.5 million for potential additional infringement damages and interest.
45
The court conducted a bench trial in November 2008, regarding our equitable defenses; and we filed a motion for reconsideration of the courts earlier denial of our motion for JMOL. Our motion for JMOL was based largely upon a clarification in the standard for a finding of joint infringement articulated by the Federal Circuit in the Muniauction Case, released after the court denied our initial motion for JMOL. On April 24, 2009 the court issued its order and memorandum setting aside the adverse jury verdict and ruling that we do not infringe Akamais 703 patent and that we are entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Based upon the courts April 24, 2009 order we have reversed the provision for litigation relating to this matter as we no longer believe that payment of any amounts represented by the litigation provision is probable. Akamai appealed the judgment, and on June 7, 2010 the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit heard oral argument on this matter. On December 20, 2010 the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the District Courts grant of our motion for judgment as a matter of law. On February 18, 2011, Akamai filed a motion with the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit seeking a rehearing and rehearing en banc. On April 21, 2011, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued an order denying the petition for rehearing, granting the petition for rehearing en banc, vacating the December 20, 2010 opinion affirming the District Courts entry of judgment in our favor, and reinstated the appeal. The Federal Circuit will hear oral arguments on November 18, 2011, and issue its opinion after that date. We believe that we do not infringe Akamais patents and will continue to vigorously defend our position; however, we cannot provide any assurance that the lawsuit ultimately will be resolved in our favor. An adverse ruling could seriously impact our ability to conduct our business and to offer our products and services to our customers. A permanent injunction could prevent us from operating our CDN to deliver certain types of traffic, which could impact the viability of our business. Any adverse ruling, in turn, would harm our revenue, market share, reputation, liquidity and overall financial position.
We are from time to time party to other lawsuits in addition to that described above. Lawsuits are expensive to defend and to prosecute, and require a diversion of management time and attention away from other activities to pursue the defense or prosecution of such matters. Adverse ruling in such lawsuits either alone or cumulatively may have an adverse impact on our revenue, expenses, market share, reputation, liquidity and overall financial position.
We may need to defend our intellectual property and processes against patent or copyright infringement claims, which would cause us to incur substantial costs and threaten our ability to do business.
Companies, organizations or individuals, including our competitors, may hold or obtain patents or other proprietary rights that would prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to make, use or sell our services or develop new services, which could make it more difficult for us to operate our business. From time to time, we may receive inquiries from holders of patents inquiring whether we infringe their proprietary rights. Companies holding Internet-related patents or other intellectual property rights are increasingly bringing suits alleging infringement of such rights or otherwise asserting their rights and seeking licenses. In addition, many of our agreements with customers require us to indemnify such customers for third-party intellectual property infringement claims against them. Pursuant to such agreements, we may be required to defend such customers against certain claims which could cause us to incur additional significant costs. Any litigation or claims, whether or not valid, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. See Legal Proceedings in Part II, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. In addition, if we are determined to have infringed upon a third partys intellectual property rights, we may be required to do one or more of the following:
| cease selling, incorporating or using products or services that incorporate the challenged intellectual property; |
| pay substantial damages; |
| obtain a license from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right, which license may or may not be available on reasonable terms or at all; or |
| redesign products or services. |
If we are forced to take any of these actions, our business may be seriously harmed. In the event of a successful claim of infringement against us and our failure or inability to obtain a license to the infringed technology, our business and operating results could be harmed.
We use certain open-source software the use of which could result in our having to distribute our proprietary software, including our source code, to third parties on unfavorable terms which could materially affect our business.
Certain of our service offerings use software that is subject to open-source licenses. Open-source code is software that is freely accessible, usable and modifiable. Certain open-source code is governed by license agreeme
