NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of October 31, 2008 and for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2008 and 2007 include the accounts of SeaChange International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“SeaChange” or the “Company”). SeaChange believes that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments), necessary for a fair statement of SeaChange’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods indicated. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full fiscal year or any other future periods. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended January 31, 2008, filed on April 14, 2008 included in SeaChange’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for such fiscal year. The balance sheet at January 31, 2008 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior period amounts to current period presentation, including the reclassification of revenue originated in Canada and South America to North American revenue as discussed in Note 6. This reclassification had no impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company consolidates the financial statements of its wholly owned subsidiaries and all inter-company accounts are eliminated in consolidation. SeaChange also holds minority investments in the capital stock of certain private companies having product offerings or customer relationships that have strategic importance. The Company evaluates its equity and debt investments and other contractual relationships with affiliate companies in order to determine whether the guidelines of FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” as revised under FIN 46R should be applied in the financial statements. FIN No. 46R addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities that possess certain characteristics. A variable interest entity (“VIE”) is defined as an entity in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the financial position and results of the VIE. Since the adoption of FIN 46R, the Company concluded that FIN 46R has not required the consolidation of any affiliated company.

The Company’s investments in affiliates include investments accounted for under the cost method and the equity method of accounting. The investments that represent less than a 20% ownership interest of the common shares of the affiliate are carried at cost. Under the equity method of accounting, which generally applies to investments that represent 20% to 50% ownership of the common shares of the affiliate, SeaChange’s proportionate ownership share of the earnings or losses of the affiliate are included in equity income (loss) in earnings of affiliates in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Goodwill

In connection with acquisitions of operating entities, the Company recognizes the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, but is evaluated for impairment, at the reporting unit level, annually in the third fiscal quarter. Goodwill of a reporting unit also is tested for impairment on an interim basis in addition to the annual evaluation if an event occurs or circumstances change which would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.

The process of evaluating goodwill for impairment requires several judgments and assumptions to be made to determine the fair value of the reporting units, including the method used to determine fair value, discount rates, expected levels of cash flows, revenues and earnings, and the selection of comparable companies used to develop market based assumptions.

In the third quarter, the Company changed the timing of its annual goodwill impairment testing for its Media Services reporting unit from October 31, 2008 to August 1, 2008. This change did not delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge (see Note 6). A letter from our independent auditors, Grant Thornton LLP discussing this change is included with this report as Exhibit 18.1.

2. Fair Value Measurements

The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Account Standard No. 157 and FASB Staff Position FAS 157-2, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157” and “FSP FAS 157-2”) on February 1, 2008. The adoption of these pronouncements did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Accordingly, the Company is continuing to apply Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities (“SFAS 115”) for its available for sale securities with offsetting unrealized gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income or loss. Per SFAS 157, the Company is providing fair value measurement disclosures of its available for sale securities in accordance with one of three levels of fair value measurement.

Table of Contents

SFAS 157 defines fair value to be the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. It establishes a fair value hierarchy and expands disclosures about fair value measurements in both interim and annual periods. SFAS 157 enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop fair value measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. FSP FAS 157-2 defers the effective date of SFAS 157 until January 2009 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. SFAS 157 requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 31, 2008 are as follows:

The Company relies on mark to market valuations to record the fair value of the Company’s available for sale security assets which are measured under a Level 1 input. These assets are publicly traded equity securities for which market prices are readily observable and recorded under the guidelines of SFAS 115. At October 31, 2008, we had $11.0 million in short-term marketable securities and $12.0 million in long-term marketable securities. Of the $23.0 million in available-for-sale securities at October 31, 2008, the Company holds $1.0 million in auction rate securities (“ARS”) that were intended to provide liquidity via an auction process that resets the applicable interest rate in the event there is no new investment in these securities. Due to recent uncertainty in the credit markets, this $1.0 million ARS holding in our investment portfolio has failed to settle on its respective settlement date resulting in illiquidity in this investment. Consequently, we have not been able to access these funds and do not expect to do so until a future auction of these investments is successful or a buyer is found outside the auction process. Although the maturity date of the underlying security of our ARS investment is twenty-three years, we currently have sufficient cash and cash equivalents, cash from operations and access to unused credit facilities to meet our short term liquidity requirements and do not anticipate that we will need to access our ARS investment. Accordingly, the Company has classified this investment at par value which approximates fair value.

3. Inventories

Inventories consist of the following:

4. Investments in Affiliates

On Demand Group Limited

In fiscal year 2006, SeaChange acquired the outstanding shares in On Demand Group Limited (“ODG”) it did not previously own in exchange for approximately $14.0 million in cash consideration, including transaction costs of $500,000. Two of the former shareholders of ODG became executive officers of SeaChange in conjunction with the acquisition. The purchase agreement provided for additional contingent consideration to the former shareholders of ODG, if ODG met certain goals. The contingent consideration was paid in cash or issued of SeaChange common stock in four installments. In May 2006, SeaChange paid $3.0 million in cash to satisfy the first installment. On June 30, 2006, SeaChange and the former shareholders of ODG amended the original purchase agreement to provide for the acceleration of the second installment of contingent consideration in exchange for the issuance of

Table of Contents

341,360 shares of SeaChange’s common stock having a fair market value of $2.3 million as of the date of the amendment. In December 2007 SeaChange and the former shareholders of ODG amended the original purchase agreement to provide the former shareholders of ODG 417,304 shares of SeaChange’s common stock which was satisfied in March 2008 having a fair market value of $3.2 million as of the date of the amendment in satisfaction of the third installment. On March 13, 2008, SeaChange and the former stockholders of ODG amended the original purchase agreement to provide for the satisfaction of the final contingent by payment through the issuance in March 2008 of 714,084 shares of SeaChange’s common stock having a fair market value of $4.9 million as of the date of the amendment. As of January 31, 2008 the Company recorded the third and fourth contingent consideration installments totaling $8.1 million, as additional goodwill for the step up acquisition of ODG and issued 1,131,388 shares of common stock in the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

On Demand Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG

On February 27, 2007, ODG, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SeaChange, entered into an agreement with Tele-Munchen Fernseh GmbH & Co. Produktionsgesellschaft (TMG) to create a joint venture named On Demand Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG. On Demand Deutschland specializes in establishing on-demand and pay-per-view services on multiple platforms in German-speaking Europe. ODG contributed $2.8 million to acquire its 50% ownership interest in the joint venture of which $2.6 million consisted of the fair value of customer contracts and content license agreements contributed by ODG and $154,000 represented a cash contribution. The customer contracts and licensed content had no book value. SeaChange determined that this investment is an operating joint venture and does not require consolidation under the accounting guidance of FIN No. 46R. Consequently, SeaChange accounts for this investment under the equity method of accounting.

ODG’s original investment in the joint venture was recorded at $154,000 representing the US dollar equivalent of the initial cash contribution. The difference between the book and fair value of the customer contracts and content license agreements is being accreted over the expected five year life of the contracts and recorded as a gain and an increase in the investment. This gain will be partially offset by ODG’s 50% share of the joint venture’s amortization expense over the same period related to the acquired contracts and content license agreements. ODG also recorded a net payable amount to the joint venture of $337,000 as of the joint venture formation date (February 27, 2007) reflecting the transfer of net liabilities incurred by ODG related to the joint venture as well as the joint venture’s reimbursement of previously incurred costs by ODG of $787,000 related to joint venture activities prior to its formation. Consistent with EITF 89-7, Exchange of Assets or Interest in a Subsidiary for a Noncontrolling Equity Interest in a New Entity, ODG did not record other income in connection with the reimbursement of these costs or any other gains as ODG is deemed to have a commitment to support the operations of the joint venture. ODG treated the reimbursement and other gain for a total of $869,000 as a capital distribution in excess of the carrying value of its investment in the joint venture as of April 30, 2007. This capital distribution will be accreted over the expected five year life of the customer contracts and recorded as a gain and an increase in the investment in the joint venture. ODG recorded an income tax provision during the quarter ended April 30, 2007 of $1.1 million for the taxable gain recognized by ODG related to the $2.6 million contribution of customer contracts and content licenses to and the reimbursement of previously paid costs from the joint venture.

ODG entered into a Service Agreement with the joint venture whereby ODG provides content aggregation, distribution, marketing and administration services to the joint venture under an arm’s length fee structure. In the three months and nine months ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, ODG recorded revenues of $360,000 and $208,000 and $1.3 million and $677,000 respectively, related to the Service Agreement. ODG’s share of profits from this agreement in proportion to its equity ownership interest is eliminated in consolidation.

The Shareholder’s Agreement requires ODG to provide cash contributions up to $4.2 million (USD equivalent) upon the request of the joint venture’s management and approval by the shareholders of the joint venture. ODG recorded its proportionate share of the joint venture’s losses for the three months ending October 31, 2008 and 2007 of $179,000 and $148,000, respectively. For the nine months ending October 31, 2008 and 2007, ODG recorded losses of $576,000 and $301,000, respectively. Due to the capital distribution and ODG’s share of the joint venture’s net loss exceeding the book value of its investment in the joint venture, the investment is recorded as a long-term liability of $1.6 million and $1.3 million at October 31, 2008 and January 31, 2008, respectively.

InSite One

In April 2008, the Company converted the outstanding accounts receivable balance of $432,000 owed to the Company by InSite One as of January 31, 2008 for $100,000 and 474,300 shares of InSite One’s Series E Convertible Preferred Stock. The Company has approximately 12% share of the total capital stock of InSite One. SeaChange accounts for this investment under the cost method of accounting.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

SeaChange provides indemnification, to the extent permitted by law, to its officers, directors, employees and agents for liabilities arising from certain events or occurrences while the officer, director, employee, or agent is or was serving at SeaChange’s request in such capacity. With respect to acquisitions, SeaChange provides indemnification to or assumes indemnification obligations for the current and former directors, officers and employees of the acquired companies in accordance with the acquired companies’ bylaws and charter. As a matter of practice, SeaChange has maintained directors and officers’ liability insurance including coverage for directors and officers of acquired companies.

Table of Contents

SeaChange enters into agreements in the ordinary course of business with customers, resellers, distributors, integrators and suppliers. Most of these agreements require SeaChange to defend and/or indemnify the other party against intellectual property infringement claims brought by a third party with respect to SeaChange’s products. From time to time, SeaChange also indemnifies customers and business partners for damages, losses and liabilities they may suffer or incur relating to personal injury, personal property damage, product liability, and environmental claims relating to the use of SeaChange’s products and services or resulting from the acts or omissions of SeaChange, its employees, authorized agents or subcontractors. For example, SeaChange has received requests from several of its customers for indemnification of patent litigation claims asserted by Acacia Media Technologies, USA Video Technology Corporation and VTran Media Technologies. Management performed an analysis of these requests under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies (“SFAS 5”) and determined that, as of October 31, 2008, $50,000 was estimable and probable and has recorded an accrual.

SeaChange warrants that its products, including software products, will substantially perform in accordance with its standard published specifications in effect at the time of delivery. Most warranties have at least a one year duration that generally commence upon installation. In addition, SeaChange provides maintenance support to all customers and therefore allocates a portion of the product purchase price to the initial warranty period and recognizes revenue on a straight line basis over that warranty period related to both the warranty obligation and the maintenance support agreement. When SeaChange receives revenue for extended warranties beyond the standard duration, it is deferred and recognized on a straight line basis over the contract period. Related costs are expensed as incurred.

In the ordinary course of business, SeaChange provides minimum purchase guarantees to certain of its vendors to ensure continuity of supply against the market demand. Although some of these guarantees provide penalties for cancellations and/or modifications to the purchase commitments as the market demand decreases, most of the guarantees do not. Therefore, as the market demand decreases, SeaChange re-evaluates the accounting implications of guarantees and determines what charges, if any, should be recorded.

With respect to its agreements covering product, business or entity divestitures and acquisitions, SeaChange provides certain representations and warranties and agrees to indemnify and hold such purchasers harmless against breaches of such representations, warranties and covenants. Many of the indemnification claims have a definite expiration date while some remain in force indefinitely. With respect to its acquisitions, SeaChange may, from time to time, assume the liability for certain events or occurrences that took place prior to the date of acquisition.

SeaChange provides such guarantees and indemnification obligations after considering the economics of the transaction and other factors including but not limited to the liquidity and credit risk of the other party in the transaction. SeaChange believes that the likelihood is remote that any such arrangement could have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operation or liquidity. SeaChange records liabilities, as disclosed above, for such guarantees based on the Company’s best estimate of probable losses which considers amounts recoverable under any recourse provisions.

6. Segment Information

Until the end of fiscal 2008, the Company was managed and operated as three segments, Broadcast, Broadband and Services. In its first quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company realigned its previously reported segments into three new reporting segments: Software, Servers and Storage, and Media Services, as segments defined by SFAS No. 131, Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. The Company believes this reorganization better reflects the increasing importance and magnitude of its software products and services as well as the scale of its ODG subsidiary. A description of the three new reporting segments is as follows:

Under this revised reporting structure, the Company further determined that there are significant functions, and therefore costs, that are considered corporate expenses and are not allocated to the reportable segments for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. These unallocated costs include general and administrative expenses, other than general and administrative expenses related to ODG, interest, taxes and equity earnings in affiliates, which are managed separately at the corporate level.

Table of Contents

The segment data for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2007 has been recast to reflect the realignment of the new segments. Prior to fiscal 2009, services revenues, which included ODG revenues, were reported in the Services segment and the Company did not separately track these service revenues and costs by these new segments, except for ODG. Accordingly, management has made certain assumptions to determine the amount of service revenues and service costs attributed to the Software and Servers and Storage reporting segments for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2007. The basis of the assumptions for all such revenues, costs and expenses includes significant judgments and estimations. There are no inter-segment revenues for the periods shown below. The Company does not separately track all assets by operating segments nor are the segments evaluated under this criterion. The following summarizes the revenues, gross profit, operating expenses and income from operations by reportable segment:

The following table summarizes percentage of revenues by geographic locations:

The following summarizes revenues by significant customer where such revenue exceeded 10% of total revenues for the indicated period:

At October 31, 2008, two different customers accounted for approximately 27% and 23%, respectively, of the accounts receivable and unbilled receivables balances. At January 31, 2008, two customers accounted for 23% and 18%, respectively, of SeaChange’s accounts receivable and unbilled receivables balances.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company finalized its reallocation of goodwill to the Company’s new reportable segments and changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the first nine months of fiscal 2009, as follows:

The goodwill reallocation shown in the table above relates to the reorganization of the Company’s reportable segments. The goodwill formerly included in the Broadband and Services segments was allocated between the Software, Servers and Storage and Media Services segments based on a relative fair value approach using management estimates of fair value of the segments. No impairment was recorded as a result of the change in segments. As of August 1, 2008, SeaChange reviewed the recoverability of goodwill associated with its three reporting units, Software, Servers and Storage and Media Services, and determined that there was no goodwill impairment (Note 1 and Exhibit 18.1).

7. Income Taxes

For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2008, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $1.5 million on a profit before tax of $5.0 million and an income tax provision of $2.1 million on a profit before tax of $7.9 million, respectively, resulting in an effective income tax provision rate of 29% and 27%, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2007, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $493,000 and $1.9 million, respectively, on a profit before tax of $3.5 million and on a loss before tax of $8.1million, respectively, resulting in an effective income tax provision rates of 14% and 23%, respectively. Of these amounts, $1.1 million was attributable to taxable gains for ODG’s transfer of assets to and the reimbursement of previously paid costs from On Demand Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG, the German joint venture formed in February 2007 with Tele-Munchen Fernseh GmbH & Co. Produktionsgesellschaft. In addition, the Company exhausted its U.S. tax benefit carry back potential in fiscal 2007, thus eliminating any recording of U.S. tax benefit for fiscal 2008.

As of October 31, 2008, the Company has maintained the full valuation allowance against its net U.S. deferred tax assets primarily due to the uncertainties related to the Company’s ability to generate sufficient pre-tax income for fiscal 2009 and thereafter. If SeaChange generates sufficient pre-tax income in the future, some portion or all of the valuation allowance could be reversed and a corresponding increase in net income would be reported in future periods.

8. Comprehensive (Loss) Income

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, the U.S. dollar increased in strength against the foreign currencies held by our subsidiaries. The Company’s ODG operations in the United Kingdom generated a foreign currency translation loss of $7.1 million which was recorded as accumulated other comprehensive loss reducing the Company’s equity section of the balance sheet over the prior period.

The components of comprehensive (loss) income consisted of the following:

9. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (loss) per share are presented in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share,” which requires the presentation of “basic” earnings (loss) per share and “diluted” earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For the purposes of calculating diluted earnings (loss) per share, the denominator includes both the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and the weighted average number of shares of potential common stock, such as stock options and restricted stock units and warrants, calculated using the treasury stock method.

For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2008, 3,532,000 and 3,961,000 common stock equivalents respectively were anti-dilutive based on the Company’s stock price being lower than the option exercise or strike price. The number of shares that were anti-dilutive for the three and nine month periods ended October 31, 2007 were 4,881,000 and 4,141,000 shares, respectively.

Below is a summary of the shares used in calculating basic and diluted income (loss) per share for the periods indicated:

10. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset in a Market That Is Not Active” (FSP 157-3), which clarifies the application of SFAS 157 when the market for a financial asset is inactive. Specifically, FSP 157-3 clarifies how (1) management’s internal assumptions should be considered in measuring fair value when observable data are not present, (2) observable market information from an inactive market should be taken into account, and (3) the use of broker quotes or pricing services should be considered in assessing the relevance of observable and unobservable data to measure fair value. The guidance in FSP 157-3 was effective during the Company’s third fiscal quarter, and had no material impact upon the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The guidance will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. SFAS 160 is effective for the Company beginning February 1, 2009. The Company is currently assessing the impact that FASB 160 may have on its results of operations and financial position.

Table of Contents

In March 2008, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 161 (“SFAS 161”), Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 161 on its results of operations and financial position. The Company does not currently have any derivative instruments or hedging activities.

On December 12, 2007, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 07-01, Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements (“EITF 07-01”). EITF 07-01 defines collaborative arrangements and establishes reporting requirements for transactions between participants in a collaborative arrangement and between participants in the arrangement and third parties. EITF 07-01 also establishes the appropriate income statement presentation and classification for joint operating activities and payments between participants, as well as the sufficiency of the disclosures related to these arrangements. EITF 07-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 (February 1, 2009, for the Company). Companies are required to apply EITF 07-01 using a modified version of retrospective transition for those arrangements in place at the effective date. In addition, companies are required to report the effects of the application of EITF 07-01 as a change in accounting principle through retrospective application to all prior periods presented for all arrangements existing as of the effective date, unless it is impracticable to apply the effects of the change retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact that EITF 07-01 may have on its results of operations and financial position.

On April 25, 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets, which revises the factors that an entity should consider to develop renewal or extension assumptions used in determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. The FSP amends paragraph 11(d) of SFAS 142. The FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 (February 1, 2009, for the Company) and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is prohibited. Entities should apply the FSP’s guidance in determining the useful life of an intangible asset prospectively to recognized intangible assets acquired after the FSP’s effective date. However, once effective, the FSP’s disclosure requirements apply prospectively to all recognized intangible assets, including those acquired before the FSP’s effective date. The Company is currently assessing the impact that FAS 142-3 may have on its results of operations and financial position.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (R) Business Combinations (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. SFAS 141R also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The guidance will become effective as of the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. SFAS No. 141R is effective for the Company beginning February 1, 2009. SFAS 141R will have an impact on accounting for business combinations once adopted but the effect is dependant upon acquisitions at that time.

11. Subsequent Event

On November 19, 2008, ODG, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SeaChange entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) providing for the purchase by ODG of all the outstanding capital stock (the “Mobix Shares”) of Mobix Interactive Limited (“Mobix”). Mobix is a London, England based company that provides software and content services related to the deployment of mobile video services for wireless network operators.

Overview

We are a leading developer, manufacturer and marketer of digital video systems and services including the management, aggregation, licensing, storage, and distribution of video, television, gaming and advertisement content to cable system operators, telecommunications companies and broadcast television companies.

Until the end of fiscal 2008, the Company was managed and operated as three segments, Broadcast, Broadband and Services. In its first quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company realigned its previously reported segments into three new reporting segments: Software, Servers and Storage, and Media Services as segments defined by SFAS No. 131, Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. The Company believes this reorganization better reflects the increasing importance and magnitude of its software products and services as well as the scale of its ODG subsidiary. A description of the three new reporting segments is as follows:

Under this revised reporting structure, the Company determined there are significant functions, and therefore costs, that are considered corporate expenses and are not allocated to the reportable segments for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. These unallocated costs include general and administrative expenses, other than general and administrative expenses related to ODG, interest, taxes and equity earnings in affiliates, which are managed separately at the corporate level. In the third quarter, the Company changed the timing of its annual goodwill impairment testing for its Media Services reporting unit from October 31, 2008 to August 1, 2008. This change did not delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge (see Note 6). A letter from our independent auditors, Grant Thornton LLP discussing this change is included with this report as Exhibit 18.1.

The Segment data for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2007 has been recast to reflect the realignment of the new segments. Prior to fiscal 2009, services revenues, which included ODG revenues, were reported in the Services segment and the Company did not separately track these service revenues and costs by these new segments, except for ODG. Accordingly, management has made certain assumptions to determine the amount of service revenues and service costs attributed to the Software and Servers and Storage reporting segments for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2007. The basis of the assumptions for all such revenues, costs and expenses includes significant judgments and estimations. There are no inter-segment revenues for the periods. The Company does not separately track all assets by operating segments nor are the segments evaluated under this criterion.

We have experienced fluctuations in our product revenues from quarter to quarter due to the timing of the receipt of customer orders and the shipment of those orders. The factors that impact the timing of the receipt of customer orders include among other factors:

Factors that may impact the shipment of customer orders include:

The delay in the timing of receipt and shipment of any one customer order can result in significant fluctuations in our revenue reported on a quarterly basis.

Our operating results are significantly influenced by a number of factors, including the mix of products sold and services provided, pricing, costs of materials used in our products and the expansion of our operations during the fiscal year. We price our products and services based upon our costs and consideration of the prices of competitive products and services in the marketplace. The costs of our products primarily consist of the costs of components and subassemblies that have generally declined from product introduction to product maturity. As a result of the growth of our business, our operating expenses have historically increased in the areas of research and development, selling and marketing and administration. In the current state of the economy, we currently expect that customers may still have limited capital spending budgets as we believe they are dependent on advertising revenues to fund their capital equipment purchases. Accordingly, we expect our financial results to vary from quarter to quarter and our historical financial results are not necessarily indicative of future performance. In light of the higher proportion of our international business, we expect movements in foreign exchange rates to have a greater impact on our operating results and the equity section of our balance sheet in the future.

Our ability to continue to generate revenues within the markets that our products are sold and to generate cash from operations and net income is dependent on several factors which include:

Product Revenues. Product revenues decreased 1% to $29.7 million in the three months ended October 31, 2008 from $30.0 million in the three months ended October 31, 2007. Product revenues from the Software segment accounted for 77% and 58% of the total product revenues in the three months ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively while the Servers and Storage segment accounted for 23% and 42% of total product revenues in the three months ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Service Revenues. Our Services revenues increased 16% year over year to $22.1 million in the three months ended October 31, 2008 from $19.0 million in the three months ended October 31, 2007. Services revenues for the Software segment accounted for 67% and 62% of the total Services revenue in the three months ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Servers and Storage services revenue accounted for 16% and 18% of total services revenues in the three months ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, while Media Services revenue accounted for 17% and 20% of total services revenues in the three months ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

For the three months ended October 31, 2008, three customers accounted for more than 57% of our total revenues and two customers accounted for more than 44% of our total revenues for the three months ended October 31, 2007. We believe that a significant amount of our revenues will continue to be derived from a limited number of customers.

International sales accounted for approximately 26% and 32% of total revenues in the three months ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. These orders were made primarily in United States dollars. We expect that international products and services revenues will remain a significant portion of our business in the future.

Software Revenues. Revenues from our Software segment for the three months ended October 31, 2008 increased $8.4 million or 29% from the three months ended October 31, 2007. The year over year growth was primarily due to higher software subscription revenue of $4.7 million which was recognized under the percentage-of-completion accounting method from a contract extension signed during the quarter with Comcast which extended the contract through the end of calendar 2009. A significant portion of the software development revenue generated in the three months ended October 31, 2008 from the Comcast agreement related to efforts undertaken in prior quarters. In addition, an increase of $2.2 million of higher Advertising license revenue compared to the same quarter in the previous year was due to continued growth in high definition television channel requirements for North American customers. The 25% increase in services revenue for the Software segment was primarily due to completion of several large projects that were initiated in prior quarters.

Servers and Storage Revenues. Revenues from the Servers and Storage segment for the three months ended October 31, 2008 decreased $5.7 million or 36% from related revenues in the three months ended October 31, 2007. The decrease in product revenues in the three months ended October 31, 2008 of $5.7 million compared to the same quarter in the previous year was primarily due to lower VOD server orders from US cable television customers. The 2% year over year increase in services revenue in our Servers and Storage segment is due to a larger installed base of our VOD and broadcast server products year over year.

Media Services. Revenues from Media Services increased by approximately 2% in the three months ended October 31, 2008 compared to the three months ended October 31, 2007. The increase in revenue was due primarily to revenue from recent contract wins in Turkey and Greece as well as professional service revenue from a customer in Brazil. Since ODG’s functional currency is the British pound, these Media Service revenues were offset by a 13% decrease due to the weakening of the British pound compared to the U.S dollar during the quarter compared to the same quarter in the previous year.

Product Gross Profit. Costs of product revenues consist primarily of the cost of purchased material components and subassemblies, labor and overhead relating to the final assembly and testing of complete systems and related expenses. The gross profit percentage for products increased from 55% in the three months ended October 31, 2007 to 65% in the three months ended October 31, 2008. The increase in product gross profit percentages between years is due to a significant amount of software subscription revenue being recognized under the percentage-of-completion accounting method in the three months ended October 31, 2008 while the related costs were incurred in prior quarters.

Service Gross Profit. Cost of services revenues consist primarily of labor, materials and overhead relating to the installation, training, product maintenance and technical support, software development, and project management provided by us and costs associated with providing video content services. The gross profit percentage for services was relatively flat compared to the three months ended October 31, 2007.

Software Gross Profit. Software segment gross margin of 62% was six points higher compared to the three months ended October 31, 2007. The increase in gross margins is due mainly to higher subscription revenue being recognized under the percentage-of-completion accounting method from the renewal of the Comcast agreement in the three months ended October 31, 2008 compared to the three months ended October 31, 2007.
