EXPLANATORY NOTERESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION
This Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q/A for the three months ended March 31, 2007, includes a
restated consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2007, consolidated statements of operations,
consolidated statements of cash flows and consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the
three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. The Company will not file an amended Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2006. The restatement relates primarily to
software license arrangements with 12 customers signed prior to January 1, 2006 and net deferred
income tax liabilities assumed in the acquisition of Cedara Software Corp. in June 2005. The
contracts at issue include a license of software, installation services, and related maintenance
and support obligations. Management and the Audit Committee determined that, with respect to these
contracts, the Company should recognize the entire value of the bundled contracts as revenue over
the period for which maintenance and support may be provided to the customer since fair value of
the maintenance on a stand-alone basis could not be determined. This approach is different from
the Companys historical practice of recognizing the fair value of the software over the period of
installation and the fair value of the maintenance over the maintenance period when fair value of
the maintenance on a stand-alone basis can be determined. The Companys restated financial
statements reflect the revised method of accounting for these contracts, income tax adjustments and
other adjustments. The Company has also restated the consolidated
financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A
for the year ended December 31, 2006 for similar items and this
quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with
the Form 10-K/A. The following items of the Form 10-Q have been modified or revised in this
Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-Q/A to reflect these restatements:
Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements;
Part I, Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations; and
Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
This amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A sets forth the original Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q in its entirety, except as required to reflect the effects of the restatements. Except for
disclosures affected by the restatements, this amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A speaks as of
the original filing date of May 9, 2007 and does not modify or update disclosures in the Form 10-Q,
including the nature and character of such disclosures, to reflect events occurring or items
discovered after the original filing date of the Form 10-Q. Accordingly, this amended Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with the Companys filings made with the
Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the original filing date of the Form 10-Q,
including any amendments to those filings.

Merge Technologies Incorporated and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited and in thousands, except for share and per share data)
(1) Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for reporting on Form
10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and notes required by United States of America generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for complete financial statements are not included herein.
The interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2006 of
Merge Technologies Incorporated, a Wisconsin corporation, and its subsidiaries and affiliates
(which we sometimes refer to collectively as Merge Healthcare, we, us, or our).
Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a
normal recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair
statement of our financial position and results of operations. Such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature unless otherwise noted. The results of operations for any quarter are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.
(a) Reclassifications
Where appropriate, certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial
statements to conform to the current year presentation. Specifically, we reclassified $286 of
expense from product research and development to software and other cost of sales within the
Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006, to conform to
current year presentation.
(b) Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes
On January 1, 2007, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation
No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109
(FIN No. 48). This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes
recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This interpretation prescribes
a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and
measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The pronouncement
also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in
interim periods, disclosure and transition. Pursuant to FIN No. 48 we have reclassified as
noncurrent, unrecognized tax benefits not expected to be paid within one year. The impact of
adopting FIN No. 48 had the cumulative effects explained in Note 8 below.
(c) Presentation of sales tax in statement of operations
On January 1, 2007, we adopted Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 06-3, How Sales Taxes
Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should be Presented in the Income
Statement (That Is, Gross Versus Net Presentation) (EITF No. 06-3), which discusses taxes imposed
on, and imposed concurrent with, a specific revenue-producing transaction between a seller and its
customer. It requires entities to disclose, if significant, on an interim and annual basis for all
periods presented: (a) the accounting policy elected for these taxes; and (b) the amounts of the
taxes reflected gross (as revenue) in the income statement. We account for sales taxes on a net
basis and EITF No. 06-3 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for
the three months ended March 31, 2007.
(2) Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements
On August 13, 2007, we announced that the audited financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 and other financial information included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the unaudited financial statements included in
our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 should no longer be relied
upon. The errors identified in previously issued financial statements are described below.

Revenue Recognition
We have determined that our previously filed financial statements contained errors resulting
from the incorrect recognition of revenue on software license arrangements with 12 customers that
were signed between July of 2003 and June of 2004 following the acquisition of RIS Logic. As a
result, we determined that the revenue associated with these arrangements should have been
recognized ratably over the lesser of the maintenance period or the economic life of the software
following the first productive use of the software at the customer site. The original value of
these contracts, excluding the multiple years of maintenance, aggregated approximately $2,000.
Goodwill and Deferred Income Taxes
In connection with the accounting for the acquisition of Cedara in June of 2005, we did not
appropriately record purchase accounting for deferred income taxes. As a result, both acquired
goodwill and net deferred tax liabilities were overstated. The impact of these purchase accounting
adjustments recorded in the consolidated financial statements included herein have been restated.
Other Adjustments
We have also restated for other errors generally related to our accrual for bonuses, accrual
for state and franchise taxes, accrual for subsequent credit memos, and correction of clerical
errors in accumulating and recording transactions. These adjustments included changes to the
following financial statement line items: revenue, as well as related accounts including cost of
goods sold, accounts receivable and related reserves, and deferred revenue; accrued wages; various
operating expenses; goodwill; other assets; accumulated other comprehensive income; income tax
expense; and income taxes payable.
The following tables summarize the impact of the restatements on our consolidated balance
sheets as of March 31, 2006 and 2007, and on our statements of operations and statements of cash
flow for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2007, and should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual
Report on Form 10K/A for the year ended December 31, 2006. Explanations for adjustments (a)
through (d) in the following tables may be found on the last page of this Note 2. To the extent
that an individual balance sheet or statement of operations line item classification has been
affected by more than one adjustment as described in (a) through (d), and one of such adjustments
is greater than $1,000, each adjustment is listed separately. The restatement also affected Notes
4, 7, and 8 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Purchased technology amortization expense, which is being recorded in cost of sales ratably
over the life of the related intangible asset, was $753 for the three months ended March 31, 2007
and 2006. Customer relationships and patent amortization expense, which is being recorded ratably
over the life of the related intangible asset in depreciation and amortization included in
operating costs and expenses, was $570 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.
Estimated aggregate amortization expense for the remaining periods is as follows:

As of March 31, 2007, we had gross capitalized software development costs of $11,178 and
accumulated amortization of $5,404. The weighted-average remaining amortization period of
capitalized software development costs was 2.5 years as of March 31, 2007. During three months
ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, we capitalized software development costs of $422 and $549,
respectively. Amortization expense related to developed software of $309 and $524 was recorded to
cost of sales during the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Amortization
expense during the three months ended March 31, 2006 included the impairment of certain of our
capitalized software projects of approximately $169, as we no longer anticipate future sales of
such products.
(4) Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share
reflects the potential dilution that could occur based on the exercise of stock options, except for
options with an exercise price of more than the average market price of our Common Stock, because
such exercise would be anti-dilutive. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and
diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006:

The weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding used to calculate basic net
loss per share includes exchangeable share equivalent securities for the three months ended March
31, 2007 and 2006 of 4,128,757 and 5,305,509, respectively.
As a result of the losses during the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, incremental
shares from the assumed conversion of employee stock options totaling 59,183 and 928,484,
respectively, have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their inclusion
would have been anti-dilutive.
For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, options to purchase 3,375,110 and 149,500
shares of our Common Stock, respectively, had exercise prices greater than the average market price
of our Common Stock, and, therefore, are not included in the above calculations of net loss per
share.
(5) Share-Based Compensation
We maintain four stock-based employee compensation plans (including our employee stock
purchase plan) and one director option plan under which we grant options to acquire shares of our
Common Stock to certain employees, non-employees, non-employee directors and to existing stock
option holders in connection with the consolidation of option plans following an acquisition.
Options generally have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our Common Stock at the
date of grant, with the exception of the options granted in 2005 to replace existing Cedara
Software Corp. options (Replacement Options). The Replacement Options, which we granted pursuant
to the merger agreement, had the same economic terms as the Cedara options that they replaced, as
adjusted for the conversion ratio and currency. The majority of these options vest over a three or
fouryear period and have a contractual life of six years.
We maintain an employee stock purchase plan that allows eligible employees to purchase shares
of our Common Stock through payroll deductions of up to 10% of eligible compensation on an
after-tax basis. The price eligible employees pay per share of Common Stock is at a 5% discount
from the market price at the end of each calendar quarter.
The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense related to share-based awards
subject to SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123(R)) recognized during the three
months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively:

The differences between the amounts recorded as share-based compensation expense in the
statements of operations and the amounts of share-based compensation recorded as additional paid-in
capital during the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 of $8 and $16, respectively, was
attributed to share-based compensation incurred by product research and development personnel who
worked on capitalizable software development projects during these periods.

(7) Segment Information
Late in 2006, we reorganized our business. We established three distinct business units:
Merge Healthcare North America, which primarily sells directly to the end-user healthcare market
comprised of hospitals, imaging centers and specialty clinics located in the U.S. and Canada and
also distributes certain products through the Internet via our website; Cedara Software, our
original equipment manufacturer (OEM) business unit, which primarily sells to OEMs and value
added resellers (VARs), comprised of companies that develop, manufacture or resell medical
imaging software or devices; and Merge Healthcare EMEA, which sells to the end-user healthcare
market in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (SFAS
No. 131), establishes annual and interim reporting standards for operating segments of a company.
It also requires entity-wide disclosures about the products and services an entity provides, the
material countries in which it holds assets and reports revenues, and its major customers. Our
principal executive officer has been identified as the chief operating decision maker in assessing
the performance and the allocation of resources within the Company. Our principal executive
officer relies on the information derived from our financial reporting process, which now includes
revenue by business unit and consolidated operating results and consolidated assets. As we do not
have discrete financial information available for our business units, we operate as a single
segment for reporting purposes as prescribed by SFAS No. 131. We are in the process of developing
systems and processes to obtain discrete financial information

(Unaudited and in thousands, except for share and per share data)
for our three business units which is intended to be used by our chief operation decision
maker. At the time that the information becomes available to assess performance and allocate
resources, this new information will be disclosed.

three months ended March
31, 2007 and 2006, respectively:

(8) Income Taxes
We adopted the provisions of FIN No. 48 on January 1, 2007. The total amount of unrecognized
tax benefits as of the date of adoption was $5,747 (as restated). We recognize interest and
penalties in the provision for income taxes. Total accrued interest and penalties as of January 1,
2007 was $182 (as restated). The adoption of FIN No. 48 did not result in an adjustment to
retained earnings due to the full valuation allowance maintained on our deferred tax assets.
The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at January 1, 2007 that, if recognized, would
affect the effective tax rate from continuing operations is $2,647 (as restated). The remainder of
unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would result in a decrease to goodwill. We do not
anticipate a significant change to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next
twelve months.
We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and Canada federal jurisdictions, various state and
other foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. Federal, state,
local or foreign examinations by tax authorities for years before 2003.
(9) Commitments and Contingencies
Between March 22, 2006, and April 26, 2006, seven putative securities class action lawsuits
were filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, on behalf of
a class of persons who acquired shares of our Common Stock between August 2, 2005 and March 16,
2006. On November 22, 2006, the Court consolidated the seven cases, appointed the Southwest
Carpenters Pension Trust to be the lead plaintiff and
16
Merge Technologies Incorporated and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(Unaudited and in thousands, except for share and per share data)
approved the Trusts choice of its lead counsel. The lead plaintiff filed the consolidated
amended complaint on March 21, 2007. Defendants in the suit currently include us, Richard A.
Linden, our former President and Chief Executive Officer, Scott T. Veech, our former Chief
Financial Officer, David M. Noshay, our former Senior Vice President of Strategic Business
Development, and KPMG, our auditing firm. The consolidated amended complaint arises out of our
restatement of our financial statements, as well as our investigation of allegations made in
anonymous letters received by us. The lawsuits allege that we and the other defendants violated
Section 10(b) and that the individuals violated Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended. The consolidated amended complaint seeks damages in unspecified amounts. The
defendants deadline to move, answer or otherwise respond to the remainder of the operative amended
complaint has been extended to July 2, 2007. We intend to vigorously defend the lawsuit,
including, but not limited to, possibly moving to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint.
On August 28, 2006, a derivative action was filed in the Circuit Court of Milwaukee County,
Civil Division, against Messrs. Linden and Veech, William C. Mortimore (our founder, former
Chairman and Chief Strategist, who served as our interim Chief Executive Officer from May 15, 2006
to July 2, 2006) and all of the then-current members of our Board of Directors. The plaintiffs
allege that each of the individual defendants breached fiduciary duties to us by violating
generally accepted accounting principles, willfully ignoring problems with accounting and internal
control practices and procedures and participating in the dissemination of false financial
statements. The plaintiffs also allege that we and the director defendants failed to hold an
annual meeting of shareholders for 2006 in violation of Wisconsin law. The plaintiffs ask for
unspecified amounts in damages and costs, as well as equitable relief. In response to the filing of
this action, our Board of Directors formed a Special Litigation Committee, which Committee has full
authority to investigate the allegations of the derivative complaint and determine whether pursuit
of the claims against any or all of the individual defendants would be in our best interest. The
Special Litigation Committees investigation is substantially complete. The defendants deadline
to move, answer or otherwise respond to the remainder of the operative amended complaint has been
extended to May 16, 2007.
On April 27, 2006, we received an informal, nonpublic inquiry from the SEC requesting
voluntary production of documents and other information. The inquiry principally relates to our
announcement on March 17, 2006 that we would revise our results of operations for the fiscal
quarters ended June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2005, as well as our investigation of allegations
made in anonymous letters received by us. The SEC has advised us that this inquiry should not be
interpreted as an adverse reflection on any entity or individual involved, nor should it be
interpreted as an indication by the SEC that any violation of the federal securities laws has
occurred. We continue to cooperate with the SEC.
We, and our subsidiaries, are from time to time parties to legal proceedings, lawsuits and
other claims incident to our business activities. Such matters may include, among other things,
assertions of contract breach or intellectual property infringement, claims for indemnity arising
in the course of our business and claims by persons whose employment has been terminated. Such
matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance.
Consequently, we are unable to ascertain the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability,
amounts which may be covered by insurance or recoverable from third parties, or the financial
impact with respect to these matters as of the date of this report.
(10) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities (SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure eligible items at
fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses
on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting
date. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity
to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities
differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The fair value option may
be applied instrument by instrument, with a few exceptions, such as investments otherwise accounted
for by the equity method; is irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs); and is applied only
to entire instruments and not to portions of
17
Merge Technologies Incorporated and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(Unaudited and in thousands, except for share and per share data)
instruments. SFAS No. 159 is expected
to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is
consistent with the FASBs long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial
instruments. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that
begins after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 159 on our
financial statements, should we choose the fair value option effective as of the beginning of our
fiscal year 2008.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A includes forward-looking statements within the meaning
and subject to the protections of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. When used in this Report, the words will,
believes, intends, anticipates, expects and similar expressions of the future are intended
to assist you in identifying such forward-looking statements. Although the Company presently
believes that the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable
assumptions, the Company does not give, and cannot give, any assurance that those expectations will
be achieved.
Any number of factors could cause the actual results to differ from the results contemplated
by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: risks and effects of the past
restatements of financial statements of the Company and other actions that may be taken or required
as a result of such restatements; the Companys inability to timely file reports with the
Securities and Exchange Commission; risks associated with the Companys inability to meet the
requirements of The NASDAQ Stock Market for continued listing, including possible delisting; costs,
risks and effects of legal proceedings and investigations, including the formal investigation being
conducted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and class action, derivative, and other
lawsuits; the uncertainty created by and the adverse impact on relationships with customers,
potential customers, suppliers and investors potentially resulting from, and other risks associated
with, the changes in the Companys senior management; risks in product and technology development,
market acceptance of new products and services, including teleradiology services, and continuing
product demand; the impact of competitive products and pricing; continued negative effects of the
DRA; limited acceptance of digital modalities and RISPACS and workflow technologies; the Companys
ability to integrate acquisitions; changing economic conditions; credit and payment risks
associated with end-user sales; the Companys dependence on major customers; the Companys
dependence on key personnel; and other risk factors detailed in the Companys other filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those matters discussed in Part I of our Annual
Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2006.
You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, since the statements speak
only as of the date that they are made. We do not have, or undertake any obligation to, publicly
update, revise or correct any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this Report, or
after the respective dates on which such statements otherwise are made, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise. This Report should be read in conjunction with the risk
factors, financial information and other information contained in this and other filings that the
Company makes and previously has made with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The financial data in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the three months ended March
31, 2007 and 2006 has been restated from amounts previously reported to correct accounting errors.
A discussion of the restatement for these quarters is provided in Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements contained in this Report and under Restatement of Consolidated Financial
Statements below.
Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements
On August 13, 2007, we announced that the audited financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 and other financial information included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the unaudited financial statements included in
our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 should no longer be relied
upon. The errors identified in previously issued financial statements are described below.
Revenue Recognition
We have determined that our previously filed financial statements contained errors resulting
from the incorrect recognition of revenue on software license arrangements with 12 customers that
were signed between July of 2003 and June of 2004 following the acquisition of RIS Logic. As a
result, we determined that the revenue associated with these arrangements should have been
recognized ratably over the lesser of the maintenance period or the economic life of the software
following the first productive use of the software at the customer site. The original value of
these contracts, excluding the multiple years of maintenance, aggregated approximately $2 million.
19
Goodwill and Deferred Income Taxes
In connection with the accounting for the acquisition of Cedara in June of 2005, we did
not appropriately record purchase accounting for deferred income taxes. As a result, both acquired
goodwill and net deferred tax liabilities were overstated. The impact of these purchase accounting
adjustments recorded in the consolidated financial statements included herein have been restated.
Other Adjustments
We have also restated for other errors generally related to our accrual for bonuses, accrual
for state and franchise taxes, accrual for subsequent credit memos, and correction of clerical
errors in accumulating and recording transactions. These adjustments included changes to the
following financial statement line items: revenue, as well as related accounts including cost of
goods sold, accounts receivable and related reserves, and deferred revenue; accrued wages; various
operating expenses; goodwill; other assets; accumulated other comprehensive income; income tax
expense; and income taxes payable.
Please refer to Note 2 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements for a discussion of
the restatement of our previously filed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2006 and 2007,
and our statements of operations and statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31,
2006 and 2007.
We, by means of this Quarterly Report on Form 10Q/A, have restated previously issued unaudited
consolidated financial statements and will not amend our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 2006. See Note 2 of notes to consolidated financial states for a discussion
of the restatement of our previously filed balance sheets as of March 31, 2006 and 2007 and our
statements of operations and statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and
2007. The information that was previously filed for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2007 is
superseded by the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, and the financial
statements and related financial information contained in such previously filed report should no
longer be relied upon.
Overview
Operating under the name Merge Healthcare, we develop medical imaging and information
management software and deliver related services. Late in 2006, we reorganized our business to
better reflect emerging market needs. We established three distinct business units: Merge
Healthcare North America, which primarily sells directly to the end-user healthcare market
comprised of hospitals, imaging centers and specialty clinics located in the U.S. and Canada and
also distributes certain products through the Internet via our website; Cedara Software, our OEM
business unit, which primarily sells software products, developer toolkits and custom engineering
services to OEMs and VARs, comprised of companies that develop, manufacture or resell medical
imaging software or devices; and Merge Healthcare EMEA, which sells to the end-user healthcare
market in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Healthcare providers continue to be challenged by declining reimbursements, competition and
reduced operating profits brought about by the increasing costs of delivering healthcare services.
In the U.S., we are focusing our direct sales efforts on single and multi-site imaging centers that
complete more than 10,000 studies per year, small-to-medium sized hospitals (fewer than 400 beds),
and certain specialty clinics like orthopedic practices that offer imaging services.
We have aggressively expanded our product offerings through our acquisitions of eFilm in 2002,
RIS Logic in 2003 and AccuImage in January 2005, and our business combination with Cedara Software
Corp. (including its subsidiary, eMed Technologies, Inc.) in June 2005.
We continue to face challenges including the informal, non-public inquiry being conducted by
the SEC and class action and other lawsuits. In addition, we continue to execute on several
initiatives that were started in late 2006, including our right-sizing and reorganization, our
onshore / offshore global software engineering and support delivery model and significant changes
to our senior management. However, we believe that it will take time for these initiatives and
hirings to have an impact on our net sales and operating income. For a more detailed discussion of
these items see Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings, in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A and
Item 1A, Risk
20
Factors, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year end December 31, 2006, which is
being filed contemporaneously with this Form 10-Q/A.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based
upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated financial
statements requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts
of assets, liabilities and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
On an ongoing basis, our management evaluates these estimates. We base our estimates and judgments
on our experience, our current knowledge (including terms of existing contracts), our beliefs of
what could occur in the future, our observation of trends in the industry, information provided by
our customers and information available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these
estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We have identified the following accounting policies and estimates as those that we believe
are most critical to our financial condition and results of operations and that require
managements most subjective and complex judgments in estimating the effect of inherent
uncertainties: revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, software capitalization, other
long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible asset valuation, share-based compensation expense,
income taxes, guarantees and loss contingencies. For a complete description of our critical
accounting policies, please refer to Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of OperationsCritical Accounting Policies in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2006, which is being filed contemporaneously with this
Form 10-Q/A.

Presented for comparability as if the business units had existed in the three months ended March 31, 2006. |
Software and Other
Sales. Total software and other sales for the three months ended March 31,
2007 were $8.2 million, a decrease of approximately $1.3 million, or 14.2%, from $9.5 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2006. The decrease in software and other sales primarily resulted
from a $2.1 million decrease in revenue recognized on software and other sales through our Cedara
business unit. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, Cedara entered into certain revenue
contracts which included extended payment terms, and as a result, the revenue from the related
sales will be recognized in future quarters when the payments become due. Revenue for the three
months ended March 31, 2006 included $0.9 million in cash collections from a single customer
whereby the revenue was previously deferred due to customer collectibility concerns and also $1.4
million from a single customer contract that did not have extended payment terms. Software and
other sales for Merge Healthcare North America for the three months ended March 31, 2007 included
$0.6 million of revenue from a single customer as we completed most of the installation of our
software solution during this period. Software and other sales for Merge Healthcare EMEA increased
$0.3 million, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to our renewed focus on
end-user customers in Europe. We anticipate that the revenue recognized from software and other
sales may vary significantly on a quarterly basis as a result of such factors.
Service and
Maintenance Sales. Total service and maintenance sales for the three months ended
March 31, 2007 were $7.7 million, an increase of approximately $1.1 million, or 16.4%, from $6.6
million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The increase in service and maintenance sales
resulted from increased maintenance revenue of approximately $1.0 million through our Merge
Healthcare North America business unit as new contract signings continued over the past twelve
months and the renewal rate of our existing customers for annual software maintenance remained
high.
Gross Margin
Gross Margin
Software and Other Sales. Gross margin on software and other sales was $5.1
million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of approximately $1.5 million, or
22.4%, from $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Gross margin on software and
other sales as a percentage of software and
23
other sales decreased to 62.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2007 from 69.2% in the three months ended March 31, 2006. Gross margin on software
and other sales, as a percentage of related revenue, decreased primarily due to the mix in sales
through our business units. Sales from our Cedara business unit, which typically consist of
software only contracts at higher margins, were 35.7% of software and other sales for the three
months ended March 31, 2007 compared to 52.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2006.
Amortization of purchased and developed software remained constant at approximately 13.0% and 13.4%
of software and other sales for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. We
expect our gross margin on software and other sales going forward to fluctuate depending on the mix
between the business units but generally to be similar to the three months ended March 31, 2007 and
modestly improve as the volume of software sales increases in relation to total sales.
Gross Margin Services and Maintenance Sales. Gross margin on services and maintenance sales
was $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, an increase of approximately $1.3
million, or 42.8%, from $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Gross margin on
services and maintenance sales as a percentage of services and maintenance sales, increased to
54.3% in the three months ended March 31, 2007 from 44.3% in the three months ended March 31, 2006.
Gross margin on services and maintenance sales, as a percentage of related revenue, was low for
the three months ended March 31, 2006 due to the fact that while services were incurred and
expensed during the period, revenue associated with certain contracts was deferred until the three
months ended June 30, 2006 when the product functionality was delivered. We have increased our
offshore support personnel, located in Pune, India, to approximately 40 individuals as of March 31,
2007. The increase in costs from offshore support personnel were offset by reduced expenses as a
result of our restructuring initiative. We expect our gross margin on services and maintenance
sales going forward to be similar to the three months ended March 31, 2007.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expense decreased approximately $0.5 million, or 9.3%, to approximately
$4.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $5.2 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2006. Decreasing sales and marketing expenses were primarily attributable to $0.3
million of costs associated with the establishment of our French operations in the three months
ended March 31, 2006 and $0.1 million of decreased SFAS No. 123R costs in the three months ended
March 31, 2007. We continue to enhance our sales staff and anticipate that sales and marketing
costs will modestly increase going forward.
Product Research and Development
Product research and development expense increased approximately $0.5 million, or 11.2%, to
$5.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $4.8 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2006. Increasing product research and development expenses were primarily attributable
to $1.0 million of costs associated with the establishment of our offshore software development
resources and $0.1 million of decreased capitalized software development costs in the three months
ended March 31, 2007. We have increased our offshore software development personnel, located in
Pune, India, to approximately 80 individuals as of March 31, 2007. These increases are partially
offset by reduced expenses as a result of our restructuring initiative. While our total cost per
software engineer is anticipated to decrease as a result of our offshore initiative, we anticipate
growing this part of our organization to approximately 150 individuals by the end of 2007, which is
likely to result in a continued increase in product research and development costs. We expect that
the increased costs will be partially offset by the reduction in redundant personnel that are
required during the knowledge transfer stage, which is expected to be complete during the second
quarter of 2007.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expense increased approximately $1.6 million, or 28.1%, to $7.5
million in the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $5.9 million in the three months ended March
31, 2006. Increased general and administrative expenses were primarily attributable to an increase
in Merge Healthcare North America bad debt expense of $0.5 million, an increase in internal
accounting costs and audit fees related to our Annual Report on Form 10-K that were incurred during
the three months ended March 31, 2007 of $0.7 million, $0.3 million related to our annual
performance bonus plan and a $0.2 million credit in the three months ended March 31, 2006 due to
the settlement of a legal matter for less than we had previously estimated. These factors were
offset by a $0.1 million
24
decrease in unusual legal and accounting costs associated with our prior
restatement, class action, derivative and other lawsuits. We incurred $1.4 million of such legal
expenses in connection with the class action, derivative and other lawsuits and regulatory matters
in the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared to $1.5 million of legal and accounting expenses
in the three months ended March 31, 2006. We expect legal expenses to continue until such matters
are settled.
Restructuring and Other Expenses
We incurred restructuring and other expenses of $0.8 million of termination benefits in the
three months ended March 31, 2007, primarily attributable to the restructuring initiative that we
engaged in during the fourth quarter of 2006. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for additional information. We anticipate that we will incur approximately an additional $0.2
million in one-time termination benefits during the second quarter of 2007 as we continue to
execute our 2006 restructuring initiative.
Other Income, (Expense), Net
Other income (expense) decreased approximately $0.2 million, or 33.1%, in the three months
ended March 31, 2007 from $0.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006 primarily due to a
$0.2 million decrease in interest income as a result of our decreased cash and cash equivalents.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit)
We recorded nominal income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared to
a tax benefit of $1.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006. Our effective tax rate
for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was approximately 0.1%. Our effective tax rate differed
significantly from the statutory rate primarily as a result of the fact that we have a full
valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, which we have concluded are not more-likely-than-not
to be realized. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was approximately
(22)%. Our effective tax rate differed significantly from the statutory rate primarily due to our
benefiting from the extraterritorial income exclusion on a portion of the profits associated with
the international sales of our software products and non-deductible stock compensation. Our
expected effective income tax rate is volatile and may move up or down with changes in, among other
items, operating income, the results of our purchase accounting, and changes in tax law and
regulation of the United States and foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. However, we do not
anticipate recording significant federal income tax expense in the next several quarters due to the
unrecognized benefit of significant net operating loss carryforwards in the United States and
Canada at March 31, 2007, which will be available to offset future taxable income in those
jurisdictions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash and cash equivalents were $37.2 million at March 31, 2007, a decrease of
approximately $8.8 million, or 19.1%, from our balance of $45.9 million at December 31, 2006. In
addition, our working capital, defined as the amount by which our current assets exceed our current
liabilities, was $24.7 million at March 31, 2007, a decrease of $2.4 million, or 8.7%, from our
working capital of $27.1 million at December 31, 2006. We anticipate that we will continue to use
cash during the next three to six months as we continue to invest in sales, product engineering,
and the infrastructure required to grow our business.
Operating Cash Flows
Cash used in operating activities was $8.4 million during the three months ended March 31,
2007, compared to cash provided by operations of $2.0 million during the three months ended March
31, 2006. Our negative operating cash flow in the three months ended March 31, 2007 was due to the
loss from operations, payments of $2.5 million for legal fees (including certain settlements) in
connection with the class action, derivative and other lawsuits, a portion of which we would not
anticipate incurring in a normal operating environment, $1.7 million of restructuring related
payments, $1.1 million of payments to accounting and other professional advisors (of which
approximately one-half was incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2007) and $0.8 million of
payments related to our annual corporate insurance renewals.
25
We anticipate that we will pay approximately $1.2 million of one-time termination benefits and
related restructuring costs over the next several quarters, including termination benefits of
approximately $0.2 million expected to be incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2007. We
continue to incur significant legal fees in connection with the class action, derivative and other
lawsuits and regulatory matters and expect to incur additional expenses until such matters are
settled.
Investing Cash Flows
Cash used in investing activities was $0.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007,
which was attributable to capitalized software development costs of $0.4 million and purchases of
capital equipment of $0.1 million.
Financing Cash Flows
Cash provided by financing activities was $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31,
2007 resulting from net proceeds from employee and director stock option exercises and purchases of
Common Stock under our employee stock purchase plan.
Contractual Obligations

The contractual obligations table above reflects amounts due under all our leases, net of
sub-lease income that is contractually owed to us of $0.1 million in the remaining nine months of
2007 and $0.2 million in 2008 and 2009. We do not have any other significant long-term obligations,
contractual obligations, lines of credit, standby letters of credit, guarantees, standby repurchase
obligations or other commercial commitments.
Material Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no material off balance sheet arrangements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Our cash and cash equivalents are exposed to financial market risk due to fluctuations in
interest rates, which may affect our interest income. As of March 31, 2007, our cash and cash
equivalents included money market funds and short-term deposits totaling approximately $37.2
million, and earned interest at a weighted average rate of approximately 4.5%. The value of the
principal amounts is equal to the fair value for these instruments. Due to the relative short-term
nature of our investment portfolio, our interest income is vulnerable to changes in short-term
interest rates. At current investment levels, our results of operations would vary by approximately
$0.4 million on an annual basis for every 100 basis point change in our weighted average short-term
interest rate. We do not use our portfolio for trading or other speculative purposes.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We have sales and expenses in Canada, China, Japan and Europe that are denominated in
currencies other than the U. S. Dollar and, as a result, have exposure to foreign currency exchange
risk. We have periodically entered into forward exchange contracts to hedge exposures denominated
in foreign currencies. We did not have any forward contracts outstanding at March 31, 2007. We do
not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. In the event
our exposure to foreign currency risk increases to levels that we do not deem acceptable, we may
choose to hedge those exposures.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures of a registrant designed
to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in the reports that it files
or submits under the Exchange Act is properly recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within
the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include
processes to accumulate and evaluate relevant information and communicate such information to a
registrants management, including its principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate,
to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
We evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of March 31, 2007, as required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. This evaluation
was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based on this evaluation, our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of March 31,
2007, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure (1) that information
required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms,
and (2) information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the
Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As described below, material weaknesses were
identified in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 relating to our
control environment, revenue recognition, accounting for income taxes, accounting for business
combinations and the implementation of a new accounting system.
The errors that led to the restatement of our consolidated financial statements in this Form
10-Q/A were the result of material weaknesses in revenue recognition, accounting for income taxes,
and accounting for business combinations. These material weaknesses existed as of December 31, 2006
and March 31, 2007, and were previously identified by management.
A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Auditing
Standard No. 2 of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board) is a significant deficiency, or
combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a
material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or
detected. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies,
that adversely affects a companys ability to initiate, authorize, record, process or report
external financial data reliably in accordance with GAAP such that there is more than a remote
likelihood that a misstatement of the companys annual or interim financial statements that is more
than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.
Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2006, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework. In assessing the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, management identified the following
material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006:
|
1. |
|
We did not maintain an effective control environment. Specifically, we lacked an
appropriate control consciousness and sufficient resources to address and remediate
certain control deficiencies on a timely basis. These deficiencies resulted in more than a
remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial
statements would not be prevented or detected. |
|
|
2. |
|
We did not maintain effective policies and procedures relating to revenue
recognition. Specifically, the lack of effective policies and procedures surrounding the
review and determination of revenue recognition associated with our sales contracts and
accurate recording of revenue contributed to incorrect recognition of revenue in our
preliminary 2006 consolidated financial statements, which were corrected prior to
issuance. These deficiencies resulted in more than a remote likelihood that a material
misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or
detected. |
27
|
3. |
|
We did not maintain effective policies and procedures relating to the preparation of
current and deferred income tax provisions and related balance sheet accounts.
Specifically, we did not prepare account analyses and perform account reconciliation
procedures in a timely manner. In addition, we lacked sufficient personnel with
institutional knowledge and technical expertise in the accounting for income taxes. These
deficiencies resulted in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our
annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected. |
|
|
4. |
|
We did not maintain effective policies and procedures over the accounting for
business combinations. Specifically, we did not have formal policies and procedures to
provide for sufficient analysis to identify all net assets acquired in a prior period
business combination and allowable adjustments to goodwill, which resulted in an
adjustment to correct an error that we have recorded in the fourth quarter of 2006 in our
consolidated financial statements. These deficiencies resulted in more than a remote
likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements
would not be prevented or detected. |
|
|
5. |
|
We did not maintain effective policies and procedures over the implementation of our
new accounting system for our U.S. operations, which we commenced in the fourth quarter.
Specifically, we failed to apply procedures with respect to program development to ensure
that certain financial reports that impact our financial reporting were developed and
maintained appropriately. As a result, controls over the access to, and completeness,
accuracy and validity of transactions processed through and reports generated from our
accounting system were not designed appropriately or did not operate as designed. These
deficiencies resulted in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our
annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected and contributed
to the revenue recognition deficiency described above. |
As a result of the material weaknesses described above, our management concluded that we did
not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on
the criteria established by COSO.
Remediation of Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Based on our assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,
2006, management has committed to the following remediation items:
|
1. |
|
We continue to enhance our contract review processes to include a cross functional
group that is responsible for reviewing contracts and providing information required to
assist us in our determination of revenue recognition. |
|
|
2. |
|
We continue to formalize our procedures for project status determination and customer
acceptance sign-off. |
|
|
3. |
|
We continue to enhance our education program for our sales and service organization
to educate them regarding our revenue recognition policies. We continue to implement
formal representation and verification procedures with sales staff. |
|
|
4. |
|
We continue to refine our contract review process, related to contracts with
non-standard or complex terms, with a goal of determining the appropriate accounting
treatment prior to quarter-end. We have refined our contract review processes and
procedures. In addition, we have refined our goal with respect to this remediation item to
determining the appropriate accounting treatment prior to providing our quarterly results
to our external auditors. |
|
|
5. |
|
We will formalize policies and procedures to provide for sufficient analysis to
identify all net assets acquired in a business combination. Specifically, the institution
of a formal checklist that we will use to ensure that we have considered applicable issues
and considerations associated with purchase price allocation, including income tax related
items. |
28
|
6. |
|
We will expand our policies and procedures surrounding the program development or
implementation of internal-use software applications. Specifically, we will adjust our
current policies and procedures to ensure that more significant testing procedures,
including the testing of multiple transactions and reports over an extended period of
time, are performed prior to implementing significant changes to our internal-use software
applications (including our accounting systems) that directly impact our financial
reporting process. |
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The following significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred
during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting:
|
1. |
|
We have hired a Chief Financial Officer, Vice President of Finance, Director of SEC
Financial Reporting, Director of Financial Planning and Analysis, and a Corporate
Controller. These individuals have begun the transition of certain job responsibilities
associated with our financial reporting and analysis processes from our prior Chief
Accounting Officer, who is transitioning into the role of leader of our Internal Audit
function. |
|
|
2. |
|
We have engaged an external professional accounting firm to function, in an
outsourced capacity, as our tax department. This firm will assist us with the
identification and proper application of generally accepted accounting principles in all
of our ongoing tax activities (in addition to complex transactions). |
|
|
3. |
|
We have engaged an external professional accounting firm to assist us, in an outsourced
capacity, with the remediation of our internal control weaknesses previously
identified. |

PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Between March 22, 2006, and April 26, 2006, seven putative securities class action lawsuits
were filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, on behalf of
a class of persons who acquired shares of our Common Stock between August 2, 2005 and March 16,
2006. On November 22, 2006, the Court consolidated the seven cases, appointed the Southwest
Carpenters Pension Trust to be the lead plaintiff and approved the Trusts choice of its lead
counsel. The lead plaintiff filed the consolidated amended complaint on March 21, 2007. Defendants
in the suit currently include us, Richard A. Linden, our former President and Chief Executive
Officer, Scott T. Veech, our former Chief Financial Officer, David M. Noshay, our former Senior
Vice President of Strategic Business Development, and KPMG, our auditing firm. The consolidated
amended complaint arises out of our restatement of our financial statements, as well as our
investigation of allegations made in anonymous letters received by us. The lawsuits allege that we
and the other defendants violated Section 10(b) and that the individuals violated Section 20(a) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The consolidated amended complaint seeks damages
in unspecified amounts. The defendants deadline to move, answer or otherwise respond to the
remainder of the operative amended complaint has been extended to July 2, 2007. We intend to
vigorously defend these lawsuits, including, but not limited to, possibly moving to dismiss the
consolidated amended complaint.
On August 28, 2006, a derivative action was filed in the Circuit Court of Milwaukee County,
Civil Division, against Messrs. Linden and Veech, William C. Mortimore (our founder, former
Chairman and Chief Strategist, who served as our interim Chief Executive Officer from May 15, 2006
to July 2, 2006) and all of the then-current members of our Board of Directors. The plaintiffs
allege that each of the individual defendants breached fiduciary duties to us by violating
generally accepted accounting principles, willfully ignoring problems with accounting and internal
control practices and procedures and participating in the dissemination of false financial
statements. The plaintiffs also allege that we and the director defendants failed to hold an
annual meeting of shareholders for 2006 in violation of Wisconsin law. The plaintiffs ask for
unspecified amounts in damages and costs, as well as equitable relief. In response to the filing of
this action, our Board of Directors formed a Special Litigation Committee, which Committee has full
authority to investigate the allegations of the derivative complaint and determine whether pursuit
of the claims against any or all of the individual defendants would be in our best interest. The
Special Litigation Committees investigation is substantially complete. The defendants deadline
to move, answer or otherwise respond to the remainder of the operative amended complaint has been
extended to May 16, 2007.
On April 27, 2006, we received an informal, nonpublic inquiry from the SEC requesting
voluntary production of documents and other information. The inquiry principally relates to our
announcement on March 17, 2006 that we would revise our results of operations for the fiscal
quarters ended June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2005, as well as our investigation of allegations
made in anonymous letters received by us. The SEC has advised us that this inquiry should not be
interpreted as an adverse reflection on any entity or individual involved, nor should it be
interpreted as an indication by the SEC that any violation of the federal securities laws has
occurred. We continue to cooperate with the SEC.
We, and our subsidiaries, are from time to time parties to legal proceedings, lawsuits and
other claims incident to our business activities. Such matters may include, among other things,
assertions of contract breach or intellectual property infringement, claims for indemnity arising
in the course of our business and claims by persons whose employment has been terminated. Such
matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance.
Consequently, we are unable to ascertain the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability,
amounts which may be covered by insurance or recoverable from third parties, or the financial
impact with respect to these matters as of the date of this report.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and the market price for
our common stock. Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year
ended December 31, 2006, includes a detailed discussion of these factors and these factors have not
changed materially from those included in the Form 10-K/A.
