PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS
General
     Smith Micro Software, Inc. is a diversified developer and marketer of mobile software products and services. The primary strategic focus for our products and services is on wireless data communications; including software applications for broadband mobile networks, Wi-Fi, WiMAX, personal handset information management, managing mobile content on a handset, device management solutions, mobile image management and data compression solutions. We sell our products and services to many of the world’s leading wireless service providers, original equipment manufacturers (OEM), device manufacturers, enterprise businesses and to consumers. Specific Smith Micro wireless software products include QuickLink Mobile, QuickLink Mobility, QuickLink IMS, QuickLink PhoneManager, QuickLink Music, QuickLink Media and StuffIt Wireless. The proliferation of 3G wireless technologies is providing new opportunities for our products and services on a global basis. When these broadband wireless technologies—EVDO, UMTS, HSDPA and WiMAX—are combined with new devices—mobile phones, Personal Computers (PCs), smartphone’s, Personal Digital Assistants PDAs, and Ultra-Mobile PCs (UMPCs)—opportunities emerge for new communications software products. Our core technologies are designed to address these emerging mobile convergence opportunities.
     We offer software products that operate on Windows, Mac, UNIX, Linux, Windows Mobile, Symbian and Java platforms. The underlying design concept common across our products is based on the long-standing Smith Micro commitment to “enhance the out-of-box user experience” for our customer. We have over 25 years of experience in design, creation and custom engineering services for hardware and software products, and we have shipped over 70 million copies of our QuickLink family of products to customers worldwide.
     Our operations are organized into four business groups: Connectivity and Security, Multimedia, Device Solutions and Consumer. We do not separately allocate operating expenses, nor do we allocate specific assets to these groups. Therefore, segment information reported includes only revenues and cost of revenues. See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for financial information related to our operating groups.
     Today, the largest group within Smith Micro is the Connectivity & Security Group. This group’s primary focus is to develop mobile connectivity and security solutions. QuickLink Mobile, the group’s leading product, provides mobile users the ability to easily connect a notebook or other wireless devices to wireless wide area networks (“WWANs”) and Wi-Fi hotspots. Many of the largest wireless carriers worldwide—including AT&T, Alltel, Orange, NTT DoCoMo, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless, Vodafone and others—rely on QuickLink Mobile technology to help their subscribers easily connect to their wireless networks everyday. We also maintain strong relationships with leading device, hardware and infrastructure manufactures including: UTStarcom, LG Electronics, Novatel, Kyocera, HTC, HP, and Siemens.
     In addition to marketing products to wireless carriers and device manufacturers, the Connectivity & Security Group also delivers wireless mobility solutions to medium and large businesses. Our QuickLink Mobility and QuickLink Mobile Enterprise products are designed to address the security and mobility needs of an enterprise marketplace that is rapidly becoming more reliant on remote access to information using many types of wireless networks simultaneously. Our products deliver simplified data connectivity, and enhanced security when connecting wirelessly to corporate resources or the Internet. In addition to addressing the need for robust security, the QuickLink Mobility Enterprise suite allows for seamless and persistent connectivity for the user operating on Wireless Wide Area Networks (WWANs), corporate Local Area Networks (LAN’s) and Wi-Fi networks. The applications support most IP services and interoperate with approximately 200 carriers worldwide, hundreds of wireless devices, most of the popular broadband mobile cards and embedded WWAN PC notebook devices.

     Also in the Connectivity and Security Group, our Professional Services team supports our wireless mobility business direction. This area of business development leverages our many years of experience providing custom-tooled, web-based applications to support growing businesses. From basic web design to complex solutions involving complete customer management, online commerce and fulfillment services, the Professional Services Group helps businesses refine their processes and implement cost-effective web systems.
     Our Multimedia Group develops innovative applications in the multimedia and PC phone tool spaces for wireless carriers. Today, the group ships music manager applications for PCs and mobile devices to leading wireless carriers such as Verizon Wireless, Sprint and Mexico-based IUSACELL. Building on this success, a logical next step is to add support on the PC for the management of photos, videos and applications that all reside on mobile devices. The group also launched its first multimedia product for the smartphone platform in late 2007 — Revue. Revue is a multimedia manager for the Windows Mobile platform which allows users to more easily manage and enjoy all their mobile multimedia content. The product comes with a PC companion application for syncing content between a PC and a smartphone.
     Smith Micro has also pioneered a product suite known as Active Images, targeting the needs of OEM camera manufacturers. Active Images turns any JPEG file into a self-contained multimedia messaging “system.” Users can send text messages, music, sound files, documents and more — all in a single JPEG file. Watermarks, forms, music, Internet links, voice recordings, portable digital wallet information, and even videos can all be stored in a JPEG image and accessed on any device that has the Active Image thin client application installed. This technology plays directly into Smith Micro’s strategy of broadening its wireless product offerings and provides carriers and handset manufacturers enhanced music and photo management technology products. Our patented Active Images technology is used in several of our new product offerings including our photo management products which are bundled with products from camera manufactures and sold through leading retail distributers. Another new Active Images application is our Mobile Sweepstakes product, which creates a “digital scratch card” that can be sent to a mobile phone via MMS or to a PC via email.
     Our third business segment—the Device Solutions Group—is focused on the mobile “convergence” space. We are developing solutions in the Firmware-Over-The-Air (FOTA) and IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) areas, and working to integrate our technologies into more mobile devices, networks and other developers’ applications. It is becoming both a smart—and a connected world. Not only is there a need to update the firmware on mobile devices but FOTA updates also potentially applies to most other device types that have a built-in processor. These include automobiles, standard home appliances and entertainment devices, among others. A continuing initiative for our Device Solutions Group is StuffIt Wireless. StuffIt Wireless incorporates our patent pending JPEG compression technology that provides superior compression of multimedia data. This technology focuses on delivering image and resource compression for device manufacturers, increasing storage capacity anywhere from handsets to Internet sites. By compressing phone resources, we free up handset memory so that it can be reallocated to store more images, music or video files as economically as possible. We are currently in the prototype stage of product development with potential customers.
     The fourth business unit is our Consumer Group. The core consumer business focuses on developing software for the PC utility and graphic markets. Smith Micro’s complete line of consumer and prosumer products is available through direct sales on the Smith Micro website, on partner websites, direct through customer service order desks and through traditional retail outlets. In addition, the Consumer Group also focuses on republishing and marketing third party software titles that complement our exiting line of products. The Consumer Group is focused on the following market segments: Compression, Graphics, Utilities (including Diagnosis, Performance, Security and Internet), Compilation and Lifestyle.
     Today, the Consumer Group’s lead product line is StuffIt, which is driven by a patent pending, revolutionary JPEG compression technology. StuffIt provides superior compression, encryption and archive capability. This breakthrough technology can compress JPEG photos and images up to 30% without loss of image quality. In addition to compression technology, the company is focused on growing its line of graphic titles, in particular Poser, Anime Studio and Manga Studio. These lines of graphic products have a loyal following and are growing in market awareness.

Industry Background
Smith Micro offers products in the following technology and communications related markets:
     Wireless — To help drive revenue growth and profitability, wireless carriers have introduced new value-added products and services that coincide with a number of key enabling trends. Namely, traditional mobile devices are being replaced with multimedia-enabled devices, carriers are deploying wireless broadband network infrastructures and consumers are increasingly adopting mobile data and multimedia services. As carriers seek to enhance their competitive position, they have increasingly focused on network expansion, customer acquisition and customer service. This creates opportunities for Smith Micro, as carriers increase the use of third-party applications, services and custom solutions. These industry trends are the key drivers for the mobile data services market, which the Yankee Group has projected will grow from $10.5 billion in 2005 to $39.9 billion in 2010.
     With IMS being deployed in service providers’ networks around the globe and with a rich new set of wireless network options available for communication, significant changes are occurring in mobile handsets as well as the networks that support them. New intelligent handsets are being introduced to serve both Wi-Fi and cellular networks as well as VoIP. Smith Micro provides IMS software architecture for mobile devices.
     Mobile Music — Digital audio players and internet-based music download services have transformed music consumption into a personal and mobile experience. As wireless carriers seek to offer premium services and mobile devices support multimedia functionality, the market for digital music distribution over wireless networks and use on wireless devices is expected to grow rapidly. The Yankee Group, a leading industry forecasting organization, estimates that music-enabled mobile phone shipments worldwide will grow from 130.2 million units in 2005 to 882.7 million units in 2010, and IDC estimates that United States wireless subscribers who purchase full-track music delivered over cellular networks will grow from 9.7 million subscribers in 2006 to 54.3 million subscribers in 2010.
     Data Compression — Data compression is critical to both efficient data storage and multimedia transmission. As subscriber demand increases for mobile access to larger image, audio and video files, we believe wireless carriers and mobile device manufacturers face a pressing need to use better compression technologies to reduce the size of digital content sent over their networks and to maximize the efficient use of limited device memory. According to the Mobile Imaging Report, of the approximately 600 million digital cameras shipped in 2005, approximately 500 million were camera-enabled mobile phones.

The product line offers both a client and server solution. The ability to deplot software to configure, update, diagnose, secure, and synchronize devices remotely results in significantly reduced customer care expenses. Greater control results in better customer service and a richly enhanced customer experience.
     Graphic Software — The fast growing global animation and 3D market reached nearly $60 billion in sales in 2006 and is expected to pass the $80 billion sales mark by 2010. Poser’s 3D figure design and animation program, Manga Studio, originally created in Japan as ComicStudio, has become the number one selling Manga software worldwide. Anime Studio is a complete animation solution for creating 2D movies, cartoons, anime or cut-out animations and is ideal for animators of any caliber.
     Diagnostic & Utility Software — The growing prevalence and complexity of PC(s) and mobility operating systems require increasingly sophisticated diagnostic and utility software solutions to improve the consumers overall computing and mobile experience. Consumers demand products that can enhance PC performance, protect against spam, spyware and computer hacking and remove malicious code. Businesses need cross-platform solutions that can quickly identify and repair a broad range of computer-related problems.

Table of Contents

     Our three largest OEM customers (Verizon Wireless, UTStarcom, and Sprint in 2007, Verizon Wireless, Kyocera Wireless and Alltel in 2006 and 2005), and their respective affiliates, in each year, have accounted for 68.5% of our net revenues in 2007, 77.4% of our net revenue in 2006 and 63.5 % of our net revenue in 2005. Our major customers could reduce their orders of our products in favor of a competitor’s product or for any other reason. The loss of any of our major OEM customers or decisions by a significant OEM customer to substantially reduce purchases could have a material adverse effect on our business. Sales to Verizon Wireless amounted to approximately 64.4%, 74.4%, and 57.1% of the Company’s net revenues for 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Integration Initiatives
     Smith Micro is committed to its transformation to integrate recent acquisition for engineering, sales and marketing within the Company. The Company continues to drive greater productivity, flexibility and cost savings by transforming and integrating its own business processes and function, including eliminating redundancies.
Customer Service and Technical Support
     We provide technical support and customer service through our online knowledge base, email, voice and fax. OEM customers generally provide their own primary customer support functions and rely on us for back-up support for their own technical support personnel.
Product Development
     The software industry, particularly the wireless market, is characterized by rapid and frequent changes in technology and user needs. We work closely with industry groups and customers, both current and potential, to help us anticipate changes in technology and determine future customer needs. Software functionality depends upon the capabilities of the hardware. Accordingly, we maintain engineering relationships with various hardware manufacturers and we develop our software in tandem with their product development. Our engineering relationships with manufacturers, as well as with our major customers, are central to our product development efforts. We remain focused on the development and expansion of our technology, particularly in the wireless space. Research and development expenditures amounted to $14.8 million, $7.9 million and $4.0 million for the years ended December 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Manufacturing
     Our software is sold in several forms. We offer a package or kit that may include: CD-ROM(s); a cable; and certain other documentation or marketing material. We also permit selected OEM customers to duplicate our products on their own CD-ROM’s and pay a royalty based on usage. The majority of our OEM business requires that we provide a CD, which includes a soft copy of a user guide. In other cases, we provide a complete data connectivity kit that includes a CD, manual and cable. Finally, we grant licenses to certain OEM customers that enable those customers to preload a copy of our software onto a personal computer. With the enterprise sales program, we offer site licenses under which a corporate user is allowed to distribute copies of the software to users within the corporate sites.
     Our product development group produces a product master for each product that is then duplicated and packaged into products by the manufacturing organization. All product components are purchased by our personnel in our Aliso Viejo, California facility. Our manufacturing is subcontracted to outside vendors and includes the replication of CD-ROM’s and the printing of documentation materials. Assembly of the final package is completed by an outside vendor or in our Aliso Viejo, California facility.

Competition
     The markets in which we operate are highly competitive and subject to rapid changes in technology. Rapidly changing technology combined with relatively low barriers to entry in the mobile software market is constantly creating new opportunities, and we expect new competitors to enter the market. We also believe that competition from established and emerging software companies will continue to intensify as the emerging mobile, wireless and Internet markets evolve. We compete with other software vendors for the attention of customers as well as in our efforts to acquire technology and qualified personnel.
     We believe that the principal competitive factors affecting the mobile software market include: product features, ease of use, customization to customer-specific needs, product quality, price, customer service and effective sales and marketing efforts. Although we believe that our products currently compete favorably with respect to these factors, there can be no assurance that we can maintain our competitive position against current and potential competitors. We believe that the market for our software products has been and will continue to be characterized by significant price competition. A material reduction in the price of our products could negatively affect our profitability. We face competition from Microsoft due to its market dominance and the fact that it is the publisher of the most prevalent personal computer operating system, Windows.
     Many existing and potential OEM customers have technological capabilities to develop products that compete directly with our products. In such event, these customers may discontinue purchases of our products. Our future performance is substantially dependent upon the extent to which existing OEM customers elect to purchase communication software from us rather than design and develop their own software. Because our customers are not contractually obligated to purchase any of our products, they may cease to rely, or fail to expand their reliance on us as a source for communication software in the future.

     Our success and ability to compete is dependent upon our software code base, our programming methodologies and other intellectual properties. To protect our proprietary technology, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, nondisclosure and patent, copyright and trademark law that may afford only limited protection. As of December 31, 2007, we own nine currently effective U.S. patents and 16 patent applications are currently pending. These patents provide generalized protection to our intellectual property base, and we will continue to apply for various patents and trademarks in the future.
     We seek to avoid disclosure of our intellectual property by requiring employees and consultants with access to our proprietary information to execute confidentiality agreements with us and by restricting access to our source code. The steps that we have taken to protect our proprietary technology may not be adequate to deter misappropriation of our proprietary information or prevent the successful assertion of an adverse claim to software utilized by us. In addition, we may not be able to detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property rights or take effective steps to enforce those rights.
     In selling our products, we primarily rely on “shrink wrap” licenses that are not signed by licensees and may be unenforceable under the laws of certain jurisdictions. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. Accordingly, the means we use currently to protect our proprietary rights may not be adequate. Moreover, our competitors may independently develop technology similar to ours. We also license technology on a non-exclusive basis from several companies for inclusion in our products and anticipate that we will continue to do so in the future. If we are unable to continue to license these technologies or to license other necessary technologies for inclusion in our products, or if we experience substantial increases in royalty payments under these third party licenses, our business could be materially and adversely affected.

Employees
     As of December 31, 2007, we had a total of 225 employees within the following departments: 103 in engineering; 73 in sales and marketing; 28 in management and administration; 12 in manufacturing and nine in customer support. We utilize temporary labor to assist during peak periods of manufacturing volume. We believe that our future success will depend in large part upon our continuing ability to attract and retain highly skilled managerial, sales, marketing, customer support, research and development personnel and consulting staff. Like other software companies, we face intense competition for such personnel, and we have at times experienced and continue to experience difficulty in recruiting qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in attracting, assimilating and retaining other qualified personnel in the future. We are not subject to any collective bargaining agreement and we believe that our relationships with our employees are good.
Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
     Our future operating results are highly uncertain. Before deciding to invest in our common stock or to maintain or increase your investment, you should carefully consider the risks described below, in addition to the other information contained in this report and in our other filings with the SEC, including our reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business operations. If any of these risks actually occur, that could seriously harm our business, financial condition or results of operations. In that event, the market price for our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.
We depend upon a single customer for a significant portion of our total net revenues.
     Our largest customer, Verizon Wireless, accounted for 64.4% and 74.4% of our net revenues in the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. In the past, we have derived a substantial portion of our revenues from sales to a small number of customers, including Verizon Wireless, and expect to continue to do so in the future. This concentration may increase in future quarters, particularly if our relationship with one major customer makes it more difficult to sell to its competitors. In that event, our revenue growth opportunities may be limited. The agreements we have with these customers are no-exclusive and do not require them to purchase any minimum quantity of our products and may be terminated by the customer or us at any time for any reason upon minimal prior written notice. These customers may not continue to place large orders for our products in the future, or purchase our products at all. If these customers fail to purchase our products at current levels, terminate or decide not to renew their agreements with us, or if the terms of our future agreements with them are less favorable to us, our revenues could decline.
     Our customers may acquire products from our competitors or develop their own products that compete directly with ours. In addition, our customers may adopt new and emerging technologies that we are unable to serve effectively or that are served by more established competitors. Any substantial decrease or delay in our sales to one or more of these customers, particularly Verizon Wireless, in any quarter would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, certain of our customers have in the past and may in the future acquire competitors in their industry or be acquired by competitors in their industry, causing further industry consolidation. In the past, such acquisitions have caused the purchasing departments of the combined companies to reevaluate their purchasing decisions. If one of our major customers engages in an acquisition transaction in the future, the resulting entity could change its current purchasing habits. As a result, we could lose the customer, or experience a decrease in orders from or profit margins related to that customer or a delay in orders previously made by that customer. Further, although we maintain allowances for doubtful accounts, the insolvency of one or more of our major customers could result in a substantial decrease in our revenues.

Our quarterly revenues and operating results are difficult to predict and could fall below analyst or investor expectations, which could cause the price of our common stock to fall.
     Our quarterly revenue and operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past and may continue to vary from quarter to quarter due to a number of factors, many of which are not within our control. If our operating results do not meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors, our stock price may decline. Fluctuations in our operating results may be due to a number of factors, including the following:
    the gain or loss of a key customer;
 
    the size and timing of orders from and shipments to our major customers;
 
    the size and timing of any return product requests for our products;
 
    our ability to maintain or increase gross margins;
 
    variations in our sales channels or the mix of our product sales;
 
    our ability to anticipate market needs and to identify, develop, complete, introduce, market and produce new products and technologies in a timely manner to address those needs;
 
    the availability and pricing of competing products and technologies and the resulting effect on sales and pricing of our products;
 
    acquisitions;
 
    the effect of new and emerging technologies;
 
    the timing of acceptance of new mobile services by users of our customers’ services;
 
    deferrals of orders by our customers in anticipation of new products, applications, product enhancements or operating systems; and
 
    general economic and market conditions.
     We have difficulty predicting the volume and timing of orders. In any given quarter, our sales have involved, and we expect will continue to involve, large financial commitments from a relatively small number of customers. As a result, the cancellation or deferral of even a small number of orders would reduce our revenues, which would adversely affect our quarterly financial performance. Also, we have often booked a large amount of our sales in the last month of the quarter and often in the last week of that month. Accordingly, delays in the closing of sales near the end of a quarter could cause quarterly revenues to fall substantially short of anticipated levels. Significant sales may also occur earlier than expected, which could cause operating results for later quarters to compare unfavorably with operating results from earlier quarters.
     A large portion of our operating expenses, including rent, depreciation and amortization is fixed and difficult to reduce or change. Accordingly, if our total revenue does not meet our expectations, we may not be able to adjust our expenses quickly enough to compensate for the shortfall in revenue. In that event, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.
     Due to all of the foregoing factors, and the other risks discussed in this report, you should not rely on quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results as an indication of future performance.
Our total net revenues currently depend on a small number of products, so our operating results are vulnerable to unexpected shifts in demand.
     Substantially all of our total net revenue in recent years was derived from sales of our wireless connectivity software products until the third quarter of 2005, when we began including sales of products acquired in the Allume

Table of Contents

Systems, Inc. acquisition. In addition, during 2006, a substantial portion of our total revenue has been derived from sales of our music management software, particularly sales of V CAST Music Essentials Kit for Verizon Wireless. Although we have introduced new products in recent quarters and our strategy is to continue to introduce new products, these efforts may not reduce the extent to which our total revenues are dependent on one or more of our products in future periods.
     We also derive a significant portion of our revenues from a few vertical markets. In particular, our music management software products are primarily sold to wireless carriers. In order to sustain and grow our business, we must continue to sell our software products into these vertical markets. Shifts in the dynamics of these vertical markets, such as new product introductions by our competitors, could seriously harm our results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
     To increase our sales outside our core vertical markets, for example to large enterprises, requires us to devote time and resources to hire and train sales employees familiar with those industries. Even if we are successful in hiring and training sales teams, customers in other vertical markets may not need or sufficiently value our current products or new product introductions.
Competition within our target markets is intense and includes numerous established competitors, which could negatively affect our revenues and results of operations.
     We operate in markets that are extremely competitive and subject to rapid changes in technology. Specifically, Microsoft Corporation poses a significant competitive threat to us because Microsoft operating systems may include some capabilities now provided by certain of our OEM and retail software products. If users are satisfied relying on the capabilities of the Windows-based systems or other operating systems, or other vendors products, sales of our products are likely to decline. In addition, because there are low barriers to entry into the software markets in which we participate and may participate in the future, we expect significant competition from both established and emerging software companies in the future. In fact, our growth opportunities in new product markets could be limited to the extent established and emerging software companies enter or have entered those markets. Furthermore, our existing and potential OEM customers may acquire or develop products that compete directly with our products.
     Microsoft and many of our other current and prospective competitors have significantly greater financial, marketing, service, support, technical and other resources than we do. As a result, they may be able to adapt more quickly than us to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements or to devote greater resources to the promotion and sale of their products. Announcements of competing products by large competitors such as Microsoft or other vendors could result in the cancellation of orders by customers in anticipation of the introduction of such new products. In addition, some of our competitors currently make complementary products that are sold separately. Such competitors could decide to enhance their competitive position by bundling their products to attract customers seeking integrated, cost-effective software applications. Some competitors have a retail emphasis and offer OEM products with a reduced set of features. The opportunity for retail upgrade sales may induce these and other competitors to make OEM products available at their own cost or even at a loss. We also expect competition to increase as a result of software industry consolidations, which may lead to the creation of additional large and well-financed competitors. Increased competition is likely to result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced margins and loss of market share.
Acquisitions of companies or technologies may disrupt our business and divert management attention and cause our current operations to suffer.
     In 2007, we acquired Ecutel Systems, Inc. and the assets of Insignia Solutions, plc and eFrontier America, Inc., and in January 2008, we completed the acquisition of the Mobility Solutions Group of PCTEL. As part of any acquisition, we will be required to assimilate the operations, products and personnel of the acquired businesses and train, retain and motivate key personnel from the acquired businesses. We may not be able to maintain uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies if we fail in these efforts. Similarly, acquisitions may cause disruptions in our operations and divert management’s attention from our company’s day-to-day operations, which could impair our relationships with our current employees, customers and strategic partners. Acquisitions may also subject us to liabilities and risks that are not known or identifiable at the time of the acquisition.

Table of Contents

     We may also have to incur debt or issue equity securities in order to finance future acquisitions. Our financial condition could be harmed to the extent we incur substantial debt or use significant amounts of our cash resources in acquisitions. The issuance of equity securities for any acquisition could be substantially dilutive to our existing stockholders. In addition, we expect our profitability could be adversely affected because of acquisition-related accounting costs, write offs amortization expenses and charges related to acquired intangible assets. In consummating acquisitions, we are also subject to risks of entering geographic and business markets in which we have had limited or no prior experience. If we are unable to fully integrate acquired businesses, products or technologies within existing operations, we may not receive the intended benefits of acquisitions.
We have recently entered new, emerging markets in which we have limited experience; if these markets do not develop or we are unable to otherwise succeed in them, our revenues will suffer and the price of our common stock will likely decline.
     Our recent product introductions, such as StuffIt Wireless, a technology for file compression, Active Images, an image-enhancement platform designed for portable devices, and the technology that underlies our firmware-over-the- air (FOTA) products have allowed us to enter new markets. We have a short operating history in these emerging markets and limited experience with image and FOTA software and platforms. A viable market for these products may not develop or be sustainable, and we may face intense competition in these markets. In addition, our success in these markets depends on our carrier customers’ ability to successfully introduce new mobile services enabled by our products and our ability to broaden our carrier customer base, which we believe will be difficult and time-consuming. If the expected benefits from entering new markets do not materialize, our revenues will suffer and the price of our common stock would likely decline. In addition, to the extent we enter new markets through acquisitions of companies or technologies, our financial condition could be harmed or our stockholders could suffer dilution without a corresponding benefit to our company if we do not realize expected benefits of entering such new markets.
If the adoption of and investments in new technologies and services grows more slowly than anticipated in our product planning and development, our operating results, financial condition and prospects may be negatively affected.
     If the adoption of and investments in new technologies and services does not grow or grows more slowly than anticipated, we will not obtain the anticipated returns from our planning and development investments. For example, our new QuickLink Mobile and QuickLink Enterprise products incorporate mobile IP technology which allow notebook users the ability to roam between wireless wide area networks and Wi-Fi hot spots, and to seamlessly hand off to the enterprise LAN without losing connectivity. In addition, our new FOTO products allow our customers to update mobile devices from a home office; technology that provides a mechanism to allow for efficient firmware updates for mobile devices. Future sales and any future profits from these and related products are substantially dependent upon the acceptance and use of Wi-Fi, and on the continued adoption of mobile device services.
     Many of our customers and other communications service providers have made and continue to make major investments in next generation networks that are intended to support more complex applications. If communications service providers delay their deployment of networks or fail to deploy such networks successfully, demand for our products could decline, which would adversely affect our revenues. Also, to the extent we devote substantial resources and incur significant expenses to enable our products to be interoperable with new networks that have failed or have been delayed or not deployed, our operating results, financial condition and prospects may be negatively affected.

     Our growth depends in part on our carrier customers’ ability and willingness to promote services and attract and retain new customers or achieve other goals outside of our control.
     We sell our products for use on handheld devices primarily through our carrier customers. Losing the support of these customers may limit our ability to compete in existing and potential markets and could negatively affect our revenues. In addition, the success of these customers and their ability and willingness to market services supported by our products are critical to our future success. Our ability to generate revenues from sales of our software, including from Verizon Wireless’s use of our software in its music and multi-media efforts, is also constrained by our carrier customers’ ability to attract and retain customers. We have no input into or influence upon their marketing efforts and sales and customer retention activities. If our carrier customers, particularly our largest customer, Verizon Wireless, fail to maintain or grow demand for their services, revenues or revenue growth from of our products designed for use on mobile devices will decline and our results of operations will suffer.
Our gross margins may continue to change due to shifts in our sales mix.
     Gross margins associated with revenues from our data and music kits are significantly lower than gross margins associated with revenues from sales of our software. This is primarily due to the fact that such kits contain hardware that must be purchased from third parties. As we had introduced music kits in our fourth quarter of 2006 and the volume of kits have changed quarter to quarter, our overall gross margins can change and have ranged from 79.7% in 2005 to 62.8% in 2006 to 71.9% in 2007. Our future gross margin could fluctuate based on the mix of products sold in a quarter.
Our products may contain undetected software defects, which could negatively affect our revenues.
     Our software products are complex and may contain undetected defects. In the past, we have discovered software defects in certain of our products and have experienced delayed or lost revenues during the period it took to correct these problems. Although we and our OEM customers test our products, it is possible that errors may be found or occur in our new or existing products after we have commenced commercial shipment of those products. Defects, whether actual or perceived, could result in adverse publicity, loss of revenues, product returns, delay in market acceptance of our products, loss of competitive position or claims against us by customers. Any such problems could be costly to remedy and could cause interruptions, delays, or cessation of our product sales, which could cause us to lose existing or prospective customers and could negatively affect our results of operations.
Technology and customer needs change rapidly in our market, which could render our products obsolete and negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
     Our success depends on our ability to anticipate and adapt to changes in technology and industry standards. We will also need to continue to develop and introduce new and enhanced products to meet our target markets’ changing demands, keep up with evolving industry standards, including changes in the Microsoft operating systems with which our products are designed to be compatible, and to promote those products successfully. The communications and utilities software markets in which we operate are characterized by rapid technological change, changing customer needs, frequent new product introductions, evolving industry standards and short product life cycles. Any of these factors could render our existing products obsolete and unmarketable. In addition, new products and product enhancements can require long development and testing periods as a result of the complexities inherent in today’s computing environments and the performance demanded by customers and called for by evolving wireless networking technologies. If our target markets do not develop as we anticipate, our products do not gain widespread acceptance in these markets, or we are unable to develop new versions of our software products that can operate on future wireless networks and PC and mobile device operating systems and interoperate with other popular applications, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Delays or failure in deliveries from our third-party suppliers could cause our net revenue to decline and harm our results of operations.
     We rely on third party suppliers to provide us with services and components for our product kits. These components include: compact discs; cables; printed manuals; and boxes. We do not have long-term supply arrangements with any vendor to obtain these necessary services and components for our products. If we are unable to purchase components from these suppliers or if the compact disc replication services that we use do not deliver our requirements on schedule, we may not be able to deliver products to our customers on a timely basis or enter into new orders because of a shortage in components. Any delays that we experience in delivering our products to customers could impair our customer relationships and adversely impact our reputation and our business. In addition, if our third party suppliers raise their prices for components or services, our gross margins would be reduced.
A shortage in the supply of wireless communication devices such as PC cards could adversely affect our revenues.
     Our products are utilized with major wireless networks throughout the world that support data communications through the use of wireless communication devices such as PC cards. Because wireless network providers generally incorporate our products into the wireless communication devices that they sell directly to individual consumers, our future success depends upon the availability of such devices to consumers at reasonable prices. A shortage in the supply of wireless communication devices could put upward pressure on prices or limit the quantities available to individual consumers which could materially affect the revenues that we generate from our products.
If our products are not designed into customer products, our products may not be adopted by our target markets and customers, either of which could negatively impact our results of operations.
     Some of our products must be incorporated into our customers’ products at the design stage. As a result, we rely on OEM customers to select our products to be designed into their products. We may devote significant resources and incur significant expense on the development of a new product without any assurance that an OEM customer will select our product for design into its own product. Once an OEM customer designs a competitor’s product into its product offering, it becomes significantly more difficult for us to sell our products to that customer because changing vendors involves significant cost, time, effort and risk for the customer. In addition, such design decisions are typically only made when a new system configuration is introduced, which may occur infrequently. Our development expenses may never be recovered and our results of operations and financial condition will be seriously harmed if our products are not selected at the design stage. Even if our products are selected at the design stage, sales of such products are outside of our control and we may never earn material revenues from such product sales.
Regulations affecting our customers and us and future regulations to which they or we may become subject may harm our business.
     Certain of our customers in the communications industry are subject to regulation by the Federal Communications Commission, which could have an indirect effect on our business. In addition, the United States telecommunications industry has been subject to continuing deregulation since 1984. We cannot predict when, or upon what terms and conditions, further regulation or deregulation might occur or the effect regulation or deregulation may have on demand for our products from customers in the communications industry. Demand for our products may be indirectly affected by regulations imposed upon potential users of those products, which may increase our costs and expenses.

We may be unable to adequately protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights, which could negatively impact our revenues.
     Our success is dependent upon our software code base, our programming methodologies and other intellectual properties and proprietary rights. In order to protect our proprietary technology, we rely on a combination of trade secret, nondisclosure and copyright and trademark law. We currently own United States trademark registrations for certain of our trademarks and United States patents for certain of our technologies. However, these measures afford us only limited protection. Furthermore, we rely primarily on “shrink wrap” licenses that are not signed by the end user and, therefore, may be unenforceable under the laws of certain jurisdictions. Accordingly, it is possible that third parties may copy or otherwise obtain our rights without our authorization. It is also possible that third parties may independently develop technologies similar to ours. It may be difficult for us to detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property and proprietary rights.
     We may be subject to claims of intellectual property infringement as the number of trademarks, patents, copyrights and other intellectual property rights asserted by companies in our industry grows and the coverage of these patents and other rights and the functionality of software products increasingly overlap. From time to time, we have received communications from third parties asserting that our trade name or features, content, or trademarks of certain of our products infringe upon intellectual property rights held by such third parties. We have also received correspondence from third parties separately asserting that our fax products may infringe on certain patents held by each of the parties. Although we are not aware that any of our products infringe on the proprietary rights of others, third parties may claim infringement by us with respect to our current or future products. Additionally, our customer agreements require that we indemnify our customers for infringement claims made by third parties involving our intellectual property embedded in their products. Infringement claims, whether with or without merit, could result in time-consuming and costly litigation, divert the attention of our management, cause product shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements with third parties. If we are required to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, they may not be on terms that are acceptable to us. Unfavorable royalty or licensing agreements could seriously impair our ability to market our products.
Our ability to predict our quarterly revenues and operating results is extremely limited.
     We have historically operated with little backlog because we have generally shipped our software products and recognized revenue shortly after we received orders because our production cycle has traditionally been very short. As a result, our sales in any quarter were generally dependent on orders that were booked and shipped in that quarter. As our wireless business has evolved, production cycle time for items such as data kits has increased to the point that orders received toward the end of a quarter may not ship until the subsequent quarter. From time to time, customers may issue purchase orders that have extended delivery dates that may cause the shipment to be deferred to a subsequent quarter. These situations make it difficult for us to predict what our revenues and operating results will be in any quarter. Therefore, our level of backlog is not necessarily indicative of trends in our business.
If we are unable to retain key personnel, the loss of their services could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
     Our future performance depends in significant part upon the continued service of our senior management and other key technical and consulting personnel. We do not have employment agreements with our key employees that govern the length of their service. The loss of the services of our key employees would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our future success also depends on our ability to continue to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel, particularly highly skilled engineers involved in the ongoing research and development required to develop and enhance our products. Competition for these employees remains high and employee retention is a common problem in our industry. Our inability to attract and retain the highly trained technical personnel that are essential to our product development, marketing, service and support teams may limit the rate at which we can generate revenue, develop new products or product enhancements and generally would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we fail to continue to establish and maintain strategic relationships with mobile device manufacturers, market acceptance of our products, and our profitability, may suffer.
     Most of our strategic relationships with mobile device manufacturers are not subject to written contract, but rather are in the form of informal working relationships. We believe these relationships are valuable to our success. In particular, these relationships provide us with insights into product development and emerging technologies, which allows us to keep abreast of, or anticipate, market trends and helps us serve our current and prospective customers. Because these relationships are not typically governed by written agreements, there is no obligation for many of our partners to continue working with us. If we are unable to maintain our existing strategic relationships with mobile device manufacturers or if we fail to enter into additional strategic relationships or the parties with whom we have strategic relationships favor one of our competitors, our ability to provide products that meet our current and prospective customers’ needs could be compromised and our reputation and future revenue prospects could suffer. For example, if our software does not function well with a popular mobile device because we have not maintained a relationship with its manufacturer, carriers seeking to provide that device to their respective customers could choose a competitor’s software over ours or develop their own. Even if we succeed in establishing these relationships, they may not result in additional customers or revenues.
Certain individuals to whom we have granted stock options may have a right of rescission as to the options.
     Approximately 4,539,500 stock options having a weighted average exercise price of $3.74 that were granted under our 1995 Stock Option / Stock Issuance Plan and 2005 Stock Option / Stock Issuance Plan between August 5, 2002 and August 31, 2006 were not exempt from registration or qualification under the securities laws of certain states, nor were they registered or qualified in such states. As a result, holders of these stock options, subject to the securities laws of the state in which they live, have a right of rescission with respect to the options. This means that if a holder elects to exercise his or her right of rescission, he or she will have a right to require us to repurchase the option for cash. Rescission rights or similar remedies may be available to persons who were granted options and no longer hold them. No liability has been recorded for these rescission rights or remedies. In addition, we may be subject to fines, penalties or enforcement actions by applicable state regulatory agencies regarding these issuances.
We may raise additional capital through the issuance of additional equity or convertible debt securities or by borrowing money, in order to meet our capital needs. Additional funds may not be available on terms acceptable to us to allow us to meet our capital needs.
     We believe that the cash, cash equivalents and investments on hand and the cash we expect to generate from operations will be sufficient to meet our capital needs for at least the next twelve months. However, it is possible that we may need or choose to obtain additional financing to fund our activities in the future. We could raise these funds by selling more stock to the public or to selected investors, or by borrowing money. We may not be able to obtain additional funds on favorable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail our operations or other business activities significantly or to obtain funds through arrangements with strategic partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain technologies or potential markets. If we raise additional funds by issuing additional equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership percentages of existing stockholders would be reduced. In addition, the equity or debt securities that we issue may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of our common stock. We currently have no established line of credit or other business borrowing facility in place.

It is possible that our future capital requirements may vary materially from those now planned. The amount of capital that we will need in the future will depend on many factors, including:
    the market acceptance of our products;
 
    the levels of promotion and advertising that will be required to launch our products and achieve and maintain a competitive position in the marketplace;
 
    our business, product, capital expenditure and research and development plans and product and technology roadmaps;
 
    the levels of inventory and accounts receivable that we maintain;
 
    capital improvements to new and existing facilities;
 
    technological advances;
 
    our competitors’ response to our products; and
 
    our relationships with suppliers and customers.
In addition, we may raise additional capital to accommodate planned growth, hiring, infrastructure and facility needs or to consummate acquisitions of other businesses, products or technologies.
Our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected as a result of legal, business and economic risks specific to international operations.
     In recent years, our revenues derived from sales to customers outside the United States have not been material. Our revenues derived from such sales can vary from quarter to quarter and from year to year. We also frequently ship products to our domestic customers’ international manufacturing divisions and subcontractors. In the future, we may expand these international business activities. International operations are subject to many inherent risks, including:
    general political, social and economic instability;
 
    trade restrictions;
 
    the imposition of governmental controls;
 
    exposure to different legal standards, particularly with respect to intellectual property;
 
    burdens of complying with a variety of foreign laws;
 
    import and export license requirements and restrictions of the United States and any other country in which we operate;
 
    unexpected changes in regulatory requirements;
 
    foreign technical standards;
 
    changes in tariffs;
 
    difficulties in staffing and managing international operations;
 
    difficulties in securing and servicing international customers;
 
    difficulties in collecting receivables from foreign entities;
 
    fluctuations in currency exchange rates and any imposition of currency exchange controls; and
 
    potentially adverse tax consequences.
These conditions may increase our cost of doing business. Moreover, as our customers are adversely affected by these conditions, our business with them may be disrupted and our results of operations could be adversely affected.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. Readers are also urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us which attempt to advise interested parties of the factors which affect our business, including without limitation the disclosures made in Item 1A of Part I of this Annual Report under the caption “Risk Factors.”
     Risk factors that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements including but are not limited to: our dependence upon a single customer for a significant portion of our revenues; potential fluctuations in quarterly results; deriving revenues from a small number of products; failure to successfully compete; failure to successfully integrate acquisitions; entry into new markets; failure of our customers to adopt new technologies; dependence upon relationships with carrier customers; declines in gross margins; undetected software defects; changes in technology; delays or failure in deliveries from component suppliers; failure of our products to achieve broad acceptance; failure to protect intellectual property; exposure to intellectual property claims; and loss of key personnel.
Introduction and Overview
          Our business model is based primarily upon the design, production and sale of software that supports the wireless industry. Our products are utilized in major wireless networks throughout the world that support data communications through the use of mobile devices or other wireless communication devices such as PC cards, USB modems, and embedded modems. Wireless network providers generally incorporate our products into their accessory products sold directly to individual consumers or on servers in the network environment to facilitate firmware over-the-air updating for mobile devices.
          Our business is primarily dependent upon the demand for wireless communications and content management solutions and the corresponding requirements for software solutions to support this demand. During the last three years, demand for these types of products has increased as wireless providers race to introduce higher network speeds, and launch new services that utilize these improving wireless broadband networks.
          We continue to invest in research and development for one of the industry’s leading wireless product lines and we believe we are uniquely positioned to capitalize on market opportunities as we leverage the strength of our technology capabilities with our growing global reach and expanding product lines. .
          During 2007, we were focused on integrating three major acquisitions while organically growing our business. As such, we saw a significant increase in revenues accompanied by an increase in operating expenses, including significant non-cash expenses which include stock based compensation, amortization of intangibles associated with acquisitions, and non cash tax expense. We believe that there continues to be excellent growth opportunities within the wireless communications software marketplace and we continue to focus on positioning Smith Micro to benefit from these opportunities.

Revenues
          In the first four months of 2007, we completed two acquisitions. We acquired of Ecutel Systems, Inc. in February 2007, and the assets of Insignia Solutions in April 2007. In addition, we acquired certain assets from eFrontier in December 2007 and the Mobile Solutions Group of PCTEL in January 2008. Due to the new acquisitions and the broadening of our OEM product offering, we began to break out our 2007 revenues consistent with our new internal operating perspective.
          We currently sell products in the following product categories: Multimedia, which includes music, photo and video library management; Connectivity and Security, which includes our connection manager solutions for both the OEM and enterprise channels; Consumer, which includes retail sales of our compression and broad consumer-based software; Mobile Device Solutions, which includes our firmware over the air upgrade software branded under the Insignia name, and ‘other revenue’, which includes the consulting portion of our services sector which has been de-emphasized and is no longer considered a strategic element of our go forward plan.
          Total net revenues were $73.4 million, $54.5 million and $20.3 million in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, with an increase of $18.9 million, or 34.7 % from 2006 to 2007 and an increase of $34.2 million, or 168.9% from 2005 to 2006. The increase in our revenues from 2005 through 2007 is attributed to the growth in sales of our wireless and consumer utility products. In late 2005 we entered the wireless music software space which was the largest selling product group for 2006 and largely responsible for the increase in revenues from 2005 to 2006. In 2007, we saw a significant increase in our Connectivity software which was a key driver to the 34.7% increase in sales over 2006. Sales to individual customers and their affiliates, which amounted to more than 10% of the Company’s net revenues, included one OEM customer at 64.4% in 2007, 74.4% in 2006 and 57.1% of net revenues in 2005.

Gross Profit
  $ 52,753     $ 34,210     $ 16,155  
 
                 
          Multimedia sales decreased $1.9 million or 6.8% from 2006 to 2007. While the number of units of Music related software increased from 2006 to 2007, we saw a shift in how the product was merchandised by our primary music customer; in 2006 this product was sold primarily as a higher revenue, lower margin music kit (including software, cable and ear buds). In 2007, the music product was sold as a kit, a software download and as a software only CD, the later two options being lower revenue per unit, but much higher margin per unit.
          Connectivity & Security sales increased $15.0 million, or 102.5%, from 2006 to 2007 as a result of the continued success of the EVDO (a wireless Internet standard) rollout by our carrier customers and the introduction of Rev A- EVDO hardware in late 2006 which is currently being rolled out by our customers.
          Consumer sales increased $3.9 million, or 36.7%, from 2006 to 2007 primarily due to a new publishing deal with VMware, to market their Fusion product.
          Mobile Device Solutions is a new revenue stream which came to us via the acquisition of assets from Insignia in April 2007.
          Finally, Corporate/Other revenue was relatively flat over the three year period.
Cost of Revenues and Gross Margin
          Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues was $20.6 million, $20.3 million and $4.1 million in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, representing an increase of $365,000, or 1.8% from 2006 to 2007 and an increase of $16.2 million, or 393.8% from 2005 to 2006. Gross margin as a percentage of net revenue was 71.9% for 2007 as compared to 62.8% for 2006 and 79.8% for 2005. Cost of Revenues for 2007 includes $1.6 million of amortization of intangibles associated with acquisitions as compared to $1.1 million in 2006 and $534,000 in 2005. In addition, there is $295,000 and $33,000 of stock compensation expense included in 2007 and 2006 which is not present in 2005. Factoring out these costs, gross margin was 74.4% in 2007, 64.9% in 2006 and 83.3% in 2005. The 54.5% increase in non-GAAP gross margin percentage from 2006 to 2007 is attributed to both the increase in sales of our high margin connectivity software and the shift in the way our music product is merchandized by our largest customer. In 2006, our music product was sold primarily as a music kit (discussed above), while in 2007, the product was sold as a kit, a software download and as a software CD. The non-GAAP decrease in gross margin percent from 2005 to 2006 is attributed to the rapid adoption of our lower margin music kit product by our largest customer.
          Direct costs of revenues consist primarily of CD replication costs, and the cost of music kit components which include ear phones and a cable that connects the handheld device to the PC. We use a variety of providers located in China, Korea and the United States. We consider CD replication, ear phones and cables to be commodities with little or no risk to supplier fluctuations. We also purchase proprietary cables from Motorola and generic OEM cables from a variety of suppliers.

  $ 48,484       66.1 %   $ 25,423       46.7 %   $ 11,994       59.2 %
             
          Selling and Marketing. Selling and marketing expenses were $18.4 million, $9.1 million and $3.4 million in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, representing an increase of $9.3 million, or 103.1%, from 2006 to 2007 and an increase of $5.6 million, or 165.6%, from 2005 to 2006. Our selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, advertising costs, sales commissions and trade show expenses. These expenses vary significantly from quarter to quarter based on the timing of trade shows and product introductions. While most of the increases in selling and marketing expenses were due to acquisitions, we also had an increase in headcount and increases in costs related to product collateral concept and design. Advertising expenses were $540,000, $379,000 and $223,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Selling and marketing expenses were 25.1%, 16.6% and 16.8% of revenues in the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Selling and marketing expenses include $673,000 of amortization expense related to acquisitions for 2007, $483,000 for 2006 and $236,000 for 2005. In addition, 2007 and 2006 selling and marketing expenses include $5.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively, of stock based compensation expense, not included in 2005. Factoring out amortization and stock based compensation costs, selling and marketing expenses were 16.3% of revenues in 2007 and 11.9% of revenues in 2006.
          Research and Development. Research and development expenses were $14.8 million, $7.9 million and $4.0 million in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, representing increases of $6.9 million, or 87.0% from 2006 to 2007 and $3.9 million, or 99.3% from 2005 to 2006. Our research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel and equipment costs required to conduct our software development efforts. We remain focused on the development and expansion of our technology, particularly our wireless, multi-media, and compression software technologies. The increase in our research and development expenses in each year was related to the development of new wireless products that were released during the periods, with an accompanying increase in headcount and a refocus of engineering resources from consulting projects to new product development. Beginning in 2005, the key driver to increased R&D expense was the addition of engineering personnel associated with the acquisition of Allume Systems on July 1, 2005, PhoTags, Inc. on April 3, 2006, Ecutel Systems, Inc. in February 2007 and the assets of Insignia Solutions, plc in April 2007. Research and development expenses were 20.1%, 14.5% and 19.6% of revenues in the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Research and development expenses include $633,000 of amortization expense related to acquisitions in 2007, $0 in 2006, and $0 in 2005. In 2007 and 2006, research and development expenses include $2.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of stock based compensation. Factoring out amortization and stock compensation expenses, research and development expenses were 15.8% and 12.5% of net revenues in 2007 and 2006, respectively.
          General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses were $15.3 million, $8.5 million and $4.6 million in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, representing increases of $6.9 million, or 80.9% from 2006 to 2007 and $3.8 million, or 83.2% from 2005 to 2006. The increases in general and administrative expenses are primarily

due to acquisitions throughout the period and the assumption of related G&A staff and certain integration costs. In addition, general and administrative expenses in both 2007 and 2006 included the costs of compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley. General and administrative expenses were 20.9%, 15.5% and 22.8% of net revenues in the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. In 2007 and 2006, general and administrative expenses include $6.0 million and $2.3 million, respectively, of stock based compensation expenses. Also included in 2006 G&A expense was the write off of goodwill related to our Services segment. Factoring out non-cash expenses, general and administrative expenses were 12.7% and 10.8% of net revenues in 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues from 2005 to 2006 is due to the significant increase in revenues during the period, while the increase from 2006 to 2007 can be attributed to the increased costs of compliance with Sarbanes Oxley legislation.
          Interest Income. Interest income was $4.3 million, $1.4 million and $667,000 in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, representing increases of $2.8 million, or 203.2% from 2006 to 2007 and $736,000, or 110.3% from 2005 to 2006. Interest income is directly related to our cash balances throughout the period and varies among periods. On December 14, 2006, we closed a fully marketed secondary offering, resulting in the issuance of 4 million shares with net cash proceeds to the company of $55.0 million in 2006. On January 18, 2007 an additional 387,000 shares were sold under the same agreement, resulting in additional net proceeds of $5.3 million. We have not changed our investment strategy during the periods being reported, with our excess cash consistently being invested in short term marketable securities. (See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further discussion elsewhere in this report.)
          Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes was $5.3 million, $1.2 million and $104,000 in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. In the 2005 period, our tax provision was fully reserved. and the tax expense for that period was primarily a provision for alternative minimum taxes and certain state minimum tax payments. In the fourth quarter of 2006, we released our reserve on our tax provision which resulted in favorable tax expense for the period. In 2007, our tax expense reflects our tax provision and is largely non-cash based, unfavorably affected by FAS123-R stock compensation expenses. We began 2007 with a net loss carryforward of approximately $15 million Federal and $12 million State, and ended the year with with net loss carryforwards of $11.8 million Federal and $6.9 million State.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
          Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily through cash generated from operations and from net proceeds of $18.1 million generated by our initial public offering in 1995. On February 18, 2005, we entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement for the private placement of 3,500,000 shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value, at a price of $6.40 per share, resulting in aggregate gross cash proceeds to the Company of $22,400,000 before deducting commissions and other expenses. Offering costs related to the transaction totaled $1,613,000, comprised of $1,344,000 in commissions and $269,000 cash payments for legal and investment services, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $20,786,000. The transaction closed simultaneously with the execution of the Purchase Agreement on February 18, 2005. C.E. Unterberg, Towbin LLC, the placement agent for the transaction, received a cash fee equal to 6% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Private Placement.
          On December 14, 2006, we completed a public offering, issuing 4,000,000 shares of our common stock, at a purchase price of $14.75 per share, resulting in aggregate gross cash proceeds to the Company of $59,000,000 before deducting commissions and other expenses. Offering costs related to the transaction totaled $4,002,000, comprised of $3,304,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions and $698,000 cash payments for legal and investment services, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $54,998,000.
          On January 18, 2007, an additional 387,000 shares were sold in the overallotment option granted to the underwriters, resulting in additional gross proceeds of $5,708,000 before deducting commissions and other expenses. Offering costs incurred in 2007 include underwriting discounts and commissions of $320,000 and $48,000 cash payments for legal and accounting services, resulting in additional net proceeds to the Company of $5,341,000.

          Net cash provided by operations was $16.3 million in 2007, $9.9 million in 2006 and $2.5 million in 2005. The primary source of operating cash in all periods was our net income adjusted for depreciation, amortization and non cash stock compensation, offset by the increase of accounts receivable and the excess tax benefit related to stock options.
          Cash flows used in investing activities were $34.2 million in 2007, $2.6 million in 2006 and $11.0 million in 2005. In 2007, cash was used to fund several acquisitions, including Insignia Solutions, plc for $15.4 million, Ecutel Systems, Inc. for $8.0 million, eFrontier for $5.1 million and an additional payout for PhoTags, Inc. on $3.5 million. Other technology was acquired for $1.2 million and capital expenditures were $1.0 million in 2007. In 2006, $2.2 million was used for the acquisition of PhoTags, Inc. and $362,000 for capital expenditures. In 2005, $10.9 million was used for the acquisition of Allume Systems, Inc. and $142,000 for capital expenditures. Our capital expenditures in all periods consist of the purchase of computers and other office equipment. In 2007, cash flows from investing activities also include the build-out of additional space in the corporate headquarters and space additions in other sites.
     Net cash provided by financing activities was $12.9 million in 2007, $64.1 million in 2006 and $21.2 million in 2005. Included in the amounts above was $5.3 million received in 2007 and $55.0 million received in 2006 from the sale of stock as previously discussed . In 2005, cash provided by financing activities includes $20.8 million as related to the private placement previously discussed . We also received $3.8 million in cash from the exercise of employee stock options in 2007 compared to $4.2 million in 2006 and $369,000 in 2005. Effective January 1, 2006, in accordance with SFAS 123(R), we include the excess tax benefits from the exercise of stock options as a financing activity rather than an operating activity in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Excess tax benefits were $3.8 million in 2007 as compared to $4.9 million in 2006.
     At December 31, 2007, we had $87.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $96.6 million of working capital. On January 4, 2008, we acquired the Mobile Solutions Group of PCTEL at a cost of $59.7 million in cash. Other than the aforementioned acquisition, we have no significant capital commitments, and currently anticipate that capital expenditures will not vary significantly from recent periods. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalent investment balances and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to finance our working capital and capital expenditure requirements through at least the next twelve months. We may require additional funds to support our working capital requirements or for other purposes and may seek to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing or from other sources. If additional financing is needed, we cannot assure that such financing will be available to us at commercially reasonable terms or at all.
     Our corporate headquarters, which includes our principal administrative, sales and marketing, customer support and research and development facility, is located in Aliso Viejo, California. We have leased this space through May 2016. We also lease space in Watsonville, California; Herndon, Virginia; Campbell, California; Stockholm, Sweden; Oslo, Norway and Seoul, South Korea. Our office in Lee’s Summit, Missouri was closed at the end of February 2008.
     As of December 31, 2007, we had no debt and no long term liabilities. The following table summarizes our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2007 (in thousands):

          During our normal course of business, we have made certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which we may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These include: intellectual property indemnities to our customers and licensees in connection with the use, sale and/or license of our products; indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facility or lease; indemnities to vendors and service providers pertaining to claims based on the negligence or willful misconduct; indemnities involving the accuracy of representations and warranties in certain contracts; and indemnities to directors and officers of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. In addition, we have made contractual commitments to employees providing for severance payments upon the occurrence of certain prescribed events. We may also issue a guarantee in the form of a standby letter of credit as security for contingent liabilities under certain customer contracts. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies, and in certain cases, may be indefinite. The majority of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees may not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential for future payments we could be obligated to make. We have not recorded any liability for these indemnities, commitments and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Critical Accounting Policies
     Our discussion and analysis of results of operations, financial condition and liquidity are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On an on-going basis, we review our estimates to ensure that the estimates appropriately reflect changes in our business or new information as it becomes available.
          We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:
          Revenue Recognition — We currently report our net revenues under the following operating groups: Multimedia, Connectivity & Security, Consumer, Mobile Device Management and Other. Within each of these groups software revenue is recognized based on the customer and contract type. We recognize revenue in accordance with the Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended, when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed and determinable, and collectibility is probable. We recognize revenues from sales of our software to OEM customers or end users as completed products are shipped and title passes; or from royalties generated as authorized customers duplicate our software, if the other requirements of SOP 97-2 are met. If the requirements of SOP 97-2 are not met at the date of shipment, revenue is not recognized until these elements are known or resolved. Returns from OEM customers are limited to defective goods or goods shipped in error. Historically, OEM customer returns have not exceeded the very nominal estimates and reserves. Management reviews available retail channel information and makes a determination of a return provision for sales made to distributors and retailers based on current channel inventory levels and historical return patterns. Certain sales to distributors or retailers are made on a consignment basis. Revenue for consignment sales are not recognized until sell through to the final customer is established. Within the Consumer group certain revenues are booked net of revenue sharing payments, pursuant to the consensus of EITF 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent. We have a few multiple elements agreement for which we have contracted to provide a perpetual license for use of proprietary software, to provide non-recurring engineering, and in some cases to provide software maintenance (post contract support). For multiple element agreements, vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for all contract elements is reviewed and the timing of the individual element revenue streams is determined and recognized consistent with SOP 97-2. Sales directly to end-users are recognized upon delivery. End users have a thirty day right of return, but such returns are reasonably estimable and have historically been immaterial. We also provide technical support to our customers. Such costs have historically been insignificant.

Table of Contents

          Accounts Receivable — We sell our products worldwide. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based upon payment history, the customer’s current credit worthiness and various other factors, as determined by our review of their current credit information. We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers. We estimate credit losses and maintain a bad debt reserve based upon these estimates. While such credit losses have historically been within our estimated reserves, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. If not, this could have an adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.
          Goodwill — We have adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective January 1, 2002 and no impairment was identified. As a result of the adoption, we are no longer required to amortize goodwill. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 142, goodwill was amortized over 7 years. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, we review the recoverability of the carrying value of goodwill at least annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. Our annual impairment testing date is December 31. Recoverability of goodwill is determined by comparing the estimated fair value of our reporting units to the carrying value of the underlying net assets in the reporting units. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is determined to be less than the fair value of its net assets, goodwill is deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the difference between the estimated fair value of the reporting unit and the fair value of its other assets and liabilities. At December 31, 2006, we elected to write off all goodwill associated with our services sector, or $335,000. The consulting portion of our services sector has been de-emphasized and is no longer considered a strategic element of our go forward plan. We determined that we did not have any impairment of goodwill as related to the products sector at December 31, 2006. Estimates of reporting unit fair value are based upon market capitalization and therefore are volatile being sensitive to market fluctuations. To the extent that our market capitalization decreases significantly or the allocation of value to our reporting units change, we could be required to write off some or all of our goodwill.
          Deferred Income Taxes — We account for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of the deferred items is based on enacted tax laws. In the event the future consequences of differences between financial reporting bases and the tax bases of our assets and liabilities result in a deferred tax asset, SFAS No. 109 requires an evaluation of the probability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated by such asset. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. At the end of 2005, we had a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets. Based on our assessment of all available evidence, we concluded that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will be fully realized in the future. This conclusion is based primarily on our improving financial performance and projected income in the future years. As a result, we released all of our valuation allowance in 2006. The release of the valuation allowance decreased our tax expense in 2006. In addition, effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our financial statements.
          Share-Based Compensation — We currently account for the issuance of stock options to employees using the fair market value method according to SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
          In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, which amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities and SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities (SFAS 155). SFAS 155 amends SFAS No. 133 to narrow the scope exception for interest-only and principal-only strips on debt instruments to include only such strips representing rights to receive a specified portion of the

Table of Contents

contractual interest or principle cash flows. SFAS 155 also amends SFAS No. 140 to allow qualifying special-purpose entities to hold a passive derivative financial instrument pertaining to beneficial interests that itself is a derivative instrument. We are currently evaluating the impact this new Standard but believe that it will not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
          In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets (SFAS 156), which provides an approach to simplify efforts to obtain hedge-like (offset) accounting. This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. The Statement (1) requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations; (2) requires that a separately recognized servicing asset or servicing liability be initially measured at fair value, if practicable; (3) permits an entity to choose either the amortization method or the fair value method for subsequent measurement for each class of separately recognized servicing assets or servicing liabilities; (4) permits at initial adoption a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities by an entity with recognized servicing rights, provided the securities reclassified offset the entity’s exposure to changes in the fair value of the servicing assets or liabilities; and (5) requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the balance sheet and additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. SFAS 156 is effective for all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006, with earlier adoption permitted in certain circumstances. The Statement also describes the manner in which it should be initially applied. Accordingly, we have adopted SFAS 156 effective January 1, 2007. The adoption of SFAS 156 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
          In July 2006, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting and reporting for uncertainties in income tax law. This interpretation prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. On January 17, 2007, the FASB affirmed its previous decision to make FIN 48 effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Accordingly, we have adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our results of operation and financial position.
          In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which defines the fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is encouraged, provided that we have not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year, including any financial statements for an interim period within that fiscal year. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact SFAS 157 may have on our results of operations and financial position.
          In October 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF 06-3, How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That is, Gross versus Net Presentation) to clarify diversity in practice on the presentation of different types of taxes in the financial statements. The Task Force concluded that, for taxes within the scope of the issue, a company may adopt a policy of presenting taxes either gross within revenue or net. That is, it may include charges to customers for taxes within revenues and the charge for the taxes from the taxing authority within cost of sales, or, alternatively, it may net the charge to the customer and the charge from the taxing authority. If taxes subject to EITF 06-3 are significant, a company is required to disclose its accounting policy for presenting taxes and the amounts of such taxes that are recognized on a gross basis. The guidance in this consensus is effective for the first interim reporting period beginning after December 15, 2006 (the first quarter of our fiscal year 2007). The application of EITF 06-3 has not had a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

          In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure at fair value many financial instruments and certain other items that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value for designated items will be required to be reported in earnings in the current period. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements for similar types of assets and liabilities measured at fair value. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently assessing the effect of implementing this guidance, which directly depends on the nature and extent of eligible items elected to be measured at fair value, upon initial application of the standard on January 1, 2008.
          In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), Business Combinations. The objective of SFAS 141 (R) is to improve reporting by creating greater consistency in the accounting and financial reporting of business combinations, resulting in more complete, comparable and relevant information for investors and other users of financial statements. SFAS 141 (R) requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction; establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and other users all of the information they need to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. SFAS 141 (R) includes both core principles and pertinent application guidance, eliminating the need for numerous EITF issues and other interpretative guidance, thereby reducing the complexity of existing GAAP. SFAS 141 (R) is effective as of the start of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is not allowed. We are in the process of evaluating this standard and have not yet determined the impact that the adoption of SFAS 141 (R) will have on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
          In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 improves the relevance, comparability, and transparency of financial information provided to investors by requiring all entities to report non-controlling (minority) interests in subsidiaries in the same way—as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Moreover, SFAS 160 eliminates the diversity that currently exists in accounting for transactions between an entity and non-controlling interests by requiring they be treated as equity transactions. SFAS 160 is effective as of the start of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is not allowed. We are in the process of evaluating this standard and have not yet determined the impact that the adoption of SFAS 160 will have on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 7A. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
          Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2007, the carrying values of our financial instruments approximated fair values based on current market prices and rates. Because of their short duration, changes in market interest rates would not have a material effect on fair value.
          It is our policy not to enter into derivative financial instruments. While we now have branches in South Korea, Sweden, and Norway, as a company most of our business is conducted in U.S. Dollars. As such, we do not have any significant translation or transaction currency exposures at December 31, 2007.

Item 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
          Not applicable.
Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
          (a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered in this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting them to the material information related to us (or our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
          Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control framework and processes were designed to provide reasonable assurance to management and the Board of Directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
          Management recognizes its responsibility for fostering a strong ethical climate so that the Company’s affairs are conducted according to the highest standards of personal and corporate conduct. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
    pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
 
    provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded properly to allow for the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and Directors of the Company; and
 
    provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
          Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Further, because of changing conditions, effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time. The Company’s processes contain self-monitoring mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies as they are identified.

          To comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Company designed and implemented a structured and comprehensive compliance process to evaluate its internal control over financial reporting across the enterprise.
Management’s Process to Assess the Effectiveness of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
          Management’s conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting is based on a thorough and comprehensive evaluation and analysis of the five elements of the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. (shown in italics below), and is based on, but not limited to, the following:
    Documentation of entity-wide controls establishing the culture and “tone-at-the-top” of the organization, in support of the Company’s Control Environment, Risk Assessment Process, Information and Communication policies and the ongoing Monitoring of these control processes and systems.
 
    An evaluation of Control Activities by work process. Key controls and compensating controls were documented and tested by each work process within the Company, including controls over all relevant financial statement assertions related to all significant accounts and disclosures. Internal control deficiencies were identified and prioritized, and appropriate remediation action plans were defined, implemented and retested.
 
    A centralized review and analysis of all internal control deficiencies across the enterprise to determine whether such deficiencies, either separately or in the aggregate, represented a significant deficiency or material weakness.
 
    An evaluation of any changes in work processes, systems, organization or policy that could materially impact internal control over financial reporting.
          Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and concluded that, as of December 31, 2007, such internal control is effective. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by COSO. Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting has been audited by Singer Lewak Greenbaum & Goldstein LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein.
          (b) Changes in Internal Controls. During the most recent fiscal quarter covered by this report, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Audit Committee of
Smith Micro Software, Inc.:
We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Smith Micro Software, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule of the Company listed in Item 15(a). These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Smith Micro Software, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” on January 1, 2007.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (R), “Share-Based Payment” on January 1, 2006.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Smith Micro Software, Inc. and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) and our report dated March 16, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of Smith Micro Software, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting.

To the Audit Committee
Smith Micro Software, Inc.
Aliso Viejo, California
We have audited Smith Micro Software Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Smith Micro Software Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying “Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting”. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Smith Micro Software, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows and the financial statement schedule for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007 of Smith Micro Software Inc., and our report dated March 16, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion.

SMITH MICRO SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS
IN THE PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business — Smith Micro Software, Inc. is a diversified developer and marketer of mobile software products and services. The primary strategic focus for our products and services is on wireless data communications; including software applications for broadband mobile networks, Wi-Fi, WiMAX, personal handset information management, managing mobile content on a handset, device management solutions, mobile image management and data compression solutions. We sell our products and services to many of the world’s leading wireless service providers, original equipment manufacturers (OEM) device manufacturers, enterprise businesses and to consumers. Specific Smith Micro wireless software products include QuickLink Mobile, QuickLink Mobility, QuickLink IMS, QuickLink PhoneManager, QuickLink Music, QuickLink Media and StuffIt Wireless. The proliferation of 3G wireless technologies is providing new opportunities for our products and services on a global basis. When these broadband wireless technologies—EVDO, UMTS, HSDPA and WiMAX—are combined with new devices—mobile phones, Personal Computers (PCs), smartphone’s, Personal Digital Assistants PDAs, and Ultra-Mobile PCs (UMPCs)—opportunities emerge for new communications software products. Our core technologies are designed to address these emerging mobile convergence opportunities.
We develop, market and sell value-added wireless connectivity software products targeting wireless carriers, mobile device manufacturers, PC hardware manufacturers and corporations. We offer software products that operate on Windows, Mac, UNIX, Linux, Windows Mobile, Symbian and Java platforms. The underlying design concept common across our products is based on the long-standing Smith Micro commitment to “enhance the out-of-box user experience” for our customer. We have over 25 years of experience in design, creation and custom engineering services for hardware and software products, and we have shipped over 70 million copies of our QuickLink family of products to customers worldwide.
Basis of Presentation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the operating results and financial position of Smith Micro Software, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All intercompany amounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents generally consist of cash, government securities and money market funds. These securities are primarily held in one financial institution and are uninsured except for minimum FDIC coverage. As of December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, balances totaling approximately $87.2 million and $93.1 million, respectively, were uninsured. All have original maturity dates of three months or less.
Accounts Receivable — The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. The Company maintains allowances for estimated credit losses, and those losses have been within management’s estimates. Allowances for product returns are included in other adjustments to accounts receivable on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Product returns are estimated based on historical experience and have also been within management’s estimates.
Inventories — Inventories consist principally of cables, CDs, boxes and manuals and are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or market. The Company regularly reviews its inventory quantities on hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

IN THE PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007
management’s estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements. At December 31, 2007 our inventory balance consisted of approximately $307,000 in assembled products and $1.7 million of components.
Equipment and Improvements — Equipment and improvements are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally ranging from three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term.
Long Lived Assets — The Company accounts for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for the disposal of long-lived assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, long-lived assets to be held are reviewed for events or changes in circumstances which indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company periodically reviews the carrying value and remaining useful lives of long-lived assets to determine whether or not an impairment to such value has occurred. The Company has determined that there was no impairment at December 31, 2007.
Goodwill — The Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective January 1, 2002 and no impairment was identified. As a result of the adoption, the Company is no longer required to amortize goodwill. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company reviews the recoverability of the carrying value of goodwill at least annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The Company’s annual impairment testing date is December 31. Recoverability of goodwill is determined by comparing the fair value of the Company’s reporting units to the carrying value of the underlying net assets in the reporting units. If the fair value of a reporting unit is determined to be less than the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the fair value of its other assets and liabilities. At December 31, 2006, we elected to write off all goodwill allocated to the services sector, or $335,000. The consulting portion of our services sector has been de-emphasized and is no longer considered a strategic element of our go forward plan. The amount of the write off is included in general and administrative expenses. We determined that we did not have any impairment of our remaining goodwill December 31, 2007.
Revenue Recognition — The Company currently reports its net revenues under the following operating groups: Multimedia, Connectivity & Security, Compression & Consumer, Mobile Device Management and Other. Within each of these groups software revenue is recognized based on the customer and contract type. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended, when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed and determinable, and collectibility is probable. The Company recognizes revenues from sales of its software to Retail and OEM customers or end users as completed products are shipped and title passes, or from royalties generated as authorized customers duplicate the Company’s software, if the other requirements of SOP 97-2 are met. If the requirements of SOP 97-2 are not met at the date of shipment, revenue is not recognized until these elements are known or resolved. Returns from Retail and OEM customers are limited to defective goods or goods shipped in error. Historically, OEM customer returns have not been significant. The

Company reviews available retail channel information and makes a determination of a return provision for sales made to distributors and retailers based on current channel inventory levels and historical return patterns. Certain sales to distributors or retailers are made on a consignment basis. Revenue for consignment sales are not recognized until sell through to the final customer is established. Within the Consumer group certain revenues are booked net of revenue sharing payments, pursuant to the consensus of EITF 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent. The Company has a few multiple elements agreements for which it has contracted to provide a perpetual license for use of proprietary software, to provide non-recurring engineering, and in some cases to provide software maintenance (post contract support). For multiple element agreements, vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for all contract elements is reviewed and the timing of the individual element revenue streams is determined and recognized consistent with SOP 97-2. Sales directly to end-users are recognized upon delivery. End users have a thirty day right of return, but such returns are reasonably estimable and have historically been immaterial. The Company also provides technical support to its customers. Such costs have historically been insignificant.
Software Development Costs — Development costs incurred in the research and development of new software products and enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established. The Company considers technological feasibility to be established when all planning, designing, coding and testing has been completed according to design specifications. After technological feasibility is established, any additional costs are capitalized. Through December 31, 2007, software has been substantially completed concurrently with the establishment of technological feasibility; and, accordingly, no costs have been capitalized to date.
Sales Incentives — Pursuant to the consensus of EITF 01-09, Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a Reseller of the Vendor’s Product), effective January 1, 2002, the cost of sales incentives the Company offers without charge to customers that can be used in, or that are exercisable by a customer as a result of, a single exchange transaction is accounted for as a reduction of revenue. Total rebates were $583,000, $307,000 and $193,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Advertising Expense — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses were $540,000, $379,000 and $223,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of the deferred items is based on enacted tax laws. In the event the future consequences of differences between financial reporting bases and the tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities result in a deferred tax asset, SFAS No. 109 requires an evaluation of the probability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated by such asset. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company reversed all of its valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets during the year ended 2006 as a result of the Company’s improving financial performance and projected income in future years.

In addition, effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 provides guidance on recognition, derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 requires an entity to recognize the financial statement impact of a tax position when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. In addition, FIN 48 permits an entity to recognize interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties either as income tax expense or operating expenses. The Company has chosen to recognize interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties as operating expense.
Based on our evaluation, the Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements. As a result, the adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operation and financial position.
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as to income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. Federal income tax returns of the Company are subject to IRS examination for the 2004 through 2006 tax years. State income tax returns are subject to examination for a period of three to four years after filing.
Share-Based Compensation — Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123(R)), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including stock options based on their fair values. SFAS 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), which the Company previously followed in accounting for stock-based awards. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) to provide guidance on SFAS 123(R). The Company has applied SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS 123(R).
The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006. In accordance with the modified prospective transition method, the Company’s financial statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123(R). Share-based compensation expense recognized is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest. Share-based compensation expense recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2006 includes compensation expense for share-based payment awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of, December 31, 2005 based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the pro forma provisions of SFAS 123.
In conjunction with the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company elected to attribute the value of share-based compensation to expense using the straight-line method, which was previously used for its pro forma information required under SFAS 123. Non-cash share-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock grants was $12.4 million and $4.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and was recorded in the financial statements as follows (in thousands):

The Company’s calculations were made using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: expected life, 12 to 48 months following the grant date; average stock volatility, 66% for grants issued in 2007 and 84% for grants issued in 2006; weighted average risk-free interest rates of 4.61% and 4.86% in the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively; and no dividends during the expected term. As share-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statement of operations pursuant to SFAS No. 123(R) is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, expense for grants beginning upon adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006 will be reduced for estimated forfeitures. SFAS No. 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience.
Grants of Restricted Stock are valued using the closing stock price on the date of grant. In the year ended December 31, 2007 a total of 50,000 shares of Restricted Stock, with a total value of $627,500, were granted to the Board of Directors. This cost will be amortized over the 12 month vesting period. In addition, a total of 477,000 shares of Restricted Stock, with a total value $6.1 million were granted to officers and key employees of the Company. This cost will be amortized over vesting periods of 24 to 48 months.
In the year ended December 31, 2006 a total of 50,000 shares of Restricted Stock, with a total value of $440,000, were granted to the Board of Directors. This cost will be amortized over the 12 month vesting period. In addition, 400,000 shares of Restricted Stock, with a total value $4.3 million, were granted to key officers and employees of the Company. This cost will be amortized over the vesting period of 24 months.
Total share-based compensation for each year includes cash payment of income taxes related to grants of restricted stock in the amount of $2.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2007 and $805,000 in the year ended December 31, 2006.

During the year ended December 31, 2005 there was no share-based compensation expense related to stock options recognized under the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB 25. In addition, there was no compensation expense for restricted stock grants as the Company had not issued any restricted stock prior to 2006. Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock options been recognized based upon the estimated fair value on the grant date under the fair value methodology prescribed by SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, the Company’s net income and income per share would have been as follows:
         
    Year Ended  
    December 31, 2005

Net income, as reported
  $ 4,724

  $ 0.22  
As reported, Diluted
  $ 0.21  
Pro forma, Basic
  $ 0.15  
Pro forma, Diluted
  $ 0.14  
The Company’s calculations were made using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: expected life, 12 to 48 months following grant date; stock volatility, 85% risk free interest rate of 3.98% and no dividends during the expected term.
     Net Income per Share — Pursuant to SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share, the Company is required to provide dual presentation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share (EPS). Basic EPS amounts are based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS amounts are based upon the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding. Pontential common shares for diluted EPS include stock options, using the treasury stock method, of 1,230,000, 1,577,000 and 1,455,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Certain potential common shares from exercise of options have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to their exercise price being greater than the Company’s weighted-average stock price for the period. For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, the number of shares excluded were 1,611,000, 68,000 and 94,000, respectively.
Fulfillment Services — The Company currently holds consigned inventory from a customer, which is used to fulfill orders. As the Company does not hold title to the inventory, it is not recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the Company receives cash for fulfillment orders, which is paid out to the fulfillment customer on a monthly basis. Such cash and the related payable are recorded on a net basis as the amounts are held for the benefit of this fulfillment customer. Revenue is recognized for fulfillment services as services are performed.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting years. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Comprehensive Income — Comprehensive income, as defined, includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. For each of the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, there was no difference between net income and comprehensive income.
Significant Concentrations — For the year ended December 31, 2007, one customer made up 64.4% of revenues and 49% of accounts receivable, and three suppliers, each with more than 10% of inventory purchases, totaled 13% of accounts payable.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments — The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables and payables. The carrying amounts of these instruments approximate fair value because of their short-term maturities.
New Accounting Pronouncements — In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Issues (SFAS) No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, which amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities and SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities. SFAS 155 amends SFAS No. 133 to narrow the scope exception for interest-only and principal-only strips on debt instruments to include only such strips representing rights to receive a specified portion of the contractual interest or principle cash flows. SFAS 155 also amends SFAS No. 140 to allow qualifying special-purpose entities to hold a passive derivative financial instrument pertaining to beneficial interests that itself is a derivative instrument. The adoption of SFAS 155 has not had a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets (SFAS 156), which provides an approach to simplify efforts to obtain hedge-like (offset) accounting. This Statement amends FASB Statement 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. The Statement (1) requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations; (2) requires that a separately recognized servicing asset or servicing liability be initially measured at fair value, if practicable; (3) permits an entity to choose either the amortization method or the fair value method for subsequent measurement for each class of separately recognized servicing assets or servicing liabilities; (4) permits at initial adoption a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities by an entity with recognized servicing rights, provided the securities reclassified offset the entity’s exposure to changes in the fair value of the servicing assets or liabilities; and (5) requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the balance sheet and additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. SFAS 156 is effective for all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006, with earlier adoption permitted in certain circumstances. The Statement also describes the manner in which it should be initially applied. Accordingly, the Company adopted SFAS 156 effective January 1, 2007. The adoption of SFAS 156 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In July 2006, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting and reporting for uncertainties in income tax law. This interpretation prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. On January 17, 2007, the FASB affirmed its previous decision to make FIN 48 effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Accordingly, the Company adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on its results of operation or financial position.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which defines the fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is encouraged, provided that we have not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year, including any financial statements for an interim period within that fiscal year. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact SFAS 157 may have on its results of operations and financial position.
In October 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF 06-3, How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That is, Gross versus Net Presentation) to clarify diversity in practice on the presentation of different types of taxes in the financial statements. The Task Force concluded that, for taxes within the scope of the issue, a company may adopt a policy of presenting taxes either gross within revenue or net. That is, it may include charges to customers for taxes within revenues and the charge for the taxes from the taxing authority within cost of sales, or, alternatively, it may net the charge to the customer and the charge from the taxing authority. If taxes subject to EITF 06-3 are significant, a company is required to disclose its accounting policy for presenting taxes and the amounts of such taxes that are recognized on a gross basis. The guidance in this consensus is effective for the first interim reporting period beginning after December 15, 2006 (the first quarter of our fiscal year 2007). The application of EITF 06-3 has not had a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure at fair value many financial instruments and certain other items that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value for designated items will be required to be reported in earnings in the current period. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements for similar types of assets and liabilities measured at fair value. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the effect of implementing this guidance, which directly depends on the nature and extent of eligible items elected to be measured at fair value, upon initial application of the standard on January 1, 2008.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141(R)). The objective of SFAS 141 (R) is to improve reporting by creating greater consistency in the accounting and financial reporting of business combinations, resulting in more complete, comparable and relevant information for investors and other users of financial statements. SFAS 141 (R) requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction; establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and other users all of the information they need to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. SFAS 141 (R) includes both core principles and pertinent application guidance, eliminating the need for numerous EITF issues and other interpretative guidance, thereby reducing the complexity of existing GAAP. SFAS 141 (R) is effective as of the start of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is not allowed. The Company is in the process of evaluating this standard and has not yet determined the impact that the adoption of SFAS 141 (R) will have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 improves the relevance, comparability, and transparency of financial information provided to investors by requiring all entities to report non-controlling (minority) interests in subsidiaries in the same way—as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Moreover, SFAS 160 eliminates the diversity that currently exists in accounting for transactions between an entity and non-controlling interests by requiring they be treated as equity transactions. SFAS 160 is effective as of the start of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is not allowed. The Company is in the process of evaluating this standard and has not yet determined the impact that the adoption of SFAS 160 will have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

6. ACQUISITION OF PHOTAGS INC.
On April 3, 2006, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Tag Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Tag Acquisition Corporation II, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub II”), PhoTags, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PhoTags”), Harry Fox, as Stockholders’ Agent, and certain stockholders of PhoTags, that provides for, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into PhoTags and, immediately upon the completion thereof, the merger of PhoTags with and into Merger Sub II pursuant to which PhoTags became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). The transaction closed on April 5, 2006.
In connection with the Merger, the Company acquired the underlying technology of PhoTags, Inc. which includes patented JPEG enhancements. As a result, the Company paid approximately $2,000,000 to PhoTags, Inc. who paid their existing liabilities at closing, and issued 384,897 shares of the Company’s common stock with an aggregate fair market value of $4,730,384 (based on a closing share price on the closing date, April 5, 2006, of $12.29) as consideration for the purchase of all of the outstanding shares of PhoTags. In connection with the Merger, the Company paid an earn-out of $3,500,000 in March 2007, based on the achievement of certain milestones which was recorded as an addition to Goodwill. The Company paid $226,000 in direct cash costs (legal and professional services) and $77,000 of non-cash direct costs were incurred to close the transaction.
As part of the transaction, CDI, a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel and a related party of PhoTags (“CDI”), agreed to grant the Company an option to acquire CDI for a period of ten (10) years following the effective time of the Merger at a purchase price of $3,000.
The Merger is intended to constitute a reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

7. ACQUISITION OF ALLUME INC.
On July 1, 2005, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Allume, Inc. from International Microcomputer Software, Inc. (IMSI) for $10.6 million in cash and 397,547 restricted shares of its common stock. Allume, Inc. is a leading developer of compression software solutions for JPEG, MPEG and MP3 platforms. A portion of the purchase price, including $1,250,000 cash and shares of common stock having a market value of $750,000 were deposited in an indemnity escrow to secure certain representations and warranties included in the Stock Purchase Agreement. The aggregate purchase price was approximately $12.8 million, which includes $10.6 million cash paid, the 397,547 shares issued, which have been valued using the average closing market price of the Company’s common stock over the two-day period before and after the sale was announced, and $316,000 of direct acquisition costs. The direct acquisition costs incurred to date include $116,000 for legal and professional services, as well as a transaction fee of $200,000.
The results of operations of the business acquired have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Aggregate amortization expense on intangible assets was approximately $2.8 million, $1.6 million and $770,000 years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Expected future amortization expense is as follows: $4.3 million for 2008, $3.8 million for 2009, $3.2 million for 2010, $2.9 million for 2011, $2.0 million for 2012 and $1.7 million thereafter. Amortization expense related to intangibles acquired in the Allume acquisition is calculated on a discounted cash flow basis over five years for Distribution Rights and Customer Lists and ten years for Trademarks. Amortization is calculated on a straight line basis over five years for Customer Lists. Amortization expense related to intangibles acquired in the PhoTags acquisition is calculated on a discounted cash flow basis over 18 months for Customer Agreements. Amortization is calculated on a straight line basis on intangible assets acquired in the Ecutel acquisition, seven years for Customer Relationships and Trade Names. Amortization expense related to all intangibles acquired in the Insignia acquisition is calculated on a discounted cash flow basis over seven years. Amortization is calculated on a straight line basis on intangible assets acquired in the eFrontier acquisition, one year for Customer Contracts, seven years for Customer Relationships and Trade Names and ten years for the Database.
Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed,” we capitalize internally developed software and software purchased from third parties if the related software product under development has reached technological feasibility or if there are alternative future uses for the purchased software. These costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis, typically over an estimated life of four to seven years, using the larger of the amount calculated using the straight-line method or the amount calculated using the ratio between current period gross revenues and the total of current period gross revenues and estimated future gross revenues. At each balance sheet date, we evaluate on a product-by-product basis the unamortized capitalized cost of computer software compared to the net realizable value of that product. The amount by which the unamortized capitalized costs of a computer software product exceed its net realizable value is written off.

At December 31, 2006, upon review of the goodwill the Company elected to write off all goodwill allocated to the consulting portion of its services sector, or $335,000. The consulting portion of its services sector has been de-emphasized and is no longer considered a strategic element of our go forward plan. The amount of the write off is included in general and administrative expenses.
The Company determined that it did not have any impairment of goodwill at December 31, 2007.
The carrying amount of the Company’s goodwill was $32,505,000 as of December 31, 2007 and $15,266,000 as of December 31, 2006.

The Company has federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $11,847,000 and $6,915,000, respectively, at December 31, 2007. These federal and state net operating loss carryforwards will expire in 2007 through 2026.
In addition, the Company has federal and state tax credit carryforwards of approximately $1,118,000 and $581,000, respectively, at December 31, 2007. These tax credits will begin to expire in 2010.
As of December 31, 2005 the Company had recorded a valuation allowance to fully reserve its net deferred tax assets based on the Company’s assessment that the realization of the deferred tax assets did not meet the “More likely than not” criterion under SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The Company reversed all of its valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets during the year ended December 31, 2006 as a result of the Company’s improving financial performance and projected income in the future years.
Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 provides guidance on recognition, derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 requires an entity to recognize the financial statement impact of a tax position when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. In addition, FIN 48 permits an entity to recognize interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties either as income tax expense or operating expenses. The Company has chosen to recognize interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties as operating expense.
Based on our evaluation, the Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements. As a result, the adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operation and financial position.
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as to income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. Federal income tax returns of the Company are subject to IRS examination for the 2004 through 2006 tax years. State income tax returns are subject to examination for a period of three to four years after filing.

Litigation — From time to time the Company is subject to litigation in the normal course of business, none of which management believes will likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
Other Contingent Contractual Obligations — During its normal course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These include: intellectual property indemnities to the Company’s customers and licensees in connection with the use, sale and/or license of Company products; indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facility or lease; indemnities to vendors and service providers pertaining to claims based on the negligence or willful misconduct of the Company; indemnities involving the accuracy of representations and warranties in certain contracts; and indemnities to directors and officers of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. In addition, the Company has made contractual commitments to employees providing for severance payments upon the occurrence of certain prescribed events. The Company may also issue a guarantee in the form of a standby letter of credit as security for contingent liabilities under certain customer contracts. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies, and in certain cases, may be indefinite. The majority of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees may not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential for future payments the Company could be obligated to make. The Company has not recorded any liability for these indemnities, commitments and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
13. SEGMENT INFORMATION
In early 2007, we completed two acquisitions. The acquisition of Ecutel Systems, Inc. in February, and the asset purchase of Insignia Solutions in April. Based on the new acquisitions and the broadening of our OEM product offering, we are now reporting our revenues consistent with our new internal operating perspective. We currently sell products in the following product categories: Multimedia, which includes music, photo and video library management; Connectivity and Security, which includes our connection manager solutions for both the OEM and Enterprise channels; Consumer, which includes retail sales of our compression and broad

consumer-based software; Mobile Device Solutions, which includes our firmware over the air upgrade software branded under the Insignia name, and ‘other revenue’, which includes miscellaneous legacy accounts that are no longer strategic to the Company.
The Company does not separately allocate operating expenses to these business groups, nor does it allocate specific assets. Therefore, business group information reported includes only revenues.
The following table shows the net revenues generated by each business group:
                         
    Year Ended December 31,  
    2007     2006     2005

Sales to individual customers and their affiliates, which amounted to more than 10% of the Company’s net revenues, included one OEM customer at 64.4% in 2007, 74.4% in 2006, and 57.1% in 2005. Accounts receivable from this customer was $6.4 million at December 31, 2007, $6.6 million at December 31, 2006 and $4.6 million at December 31, 2005. A decision by this customer to substantially decrease or delay purchases from the Company or the Company’s inability to collect receivables from this customer could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations. In recent years, our revenues derived from sales to customers outside the United States have not been material.
14. PROFIT SHARING
The Company offers its employees a 401(k) plan, in which the Company matches the employee contribution at a rate of 20%, subject to a vesting schedule. Total employer contributions amounted to $184,000, $125,000, and $65,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
15. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
On July 28, 2005, the Shareholders approved the 2005 Stock Option / Stock Issuance Plan. The Plan, which became effective the same date, replaced the 1995 Stock Option / Stock Issuance Plan which expired on

May 24, 2005. All outstanding options under the 1995 Plan will remain outstanding, but no further grants will be made under that Plan. The 2005 Plan provides for the issuance of non-qualified or incentive stock options and Restricted Stock to employees, non-employee members of the board and consultants. The exercise price per share is not to be less than the fair market value per share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The Board of Directors has the discretion to determine the vesting schedule. Options may be either immediately exercisable or in installments, but generally vest over a four-year period from the date of grant. In the event the holder ceases to be employed by the Company, all unvested options terminate and all vested options may be exercised within a period following termination. Restricted Stock is valued using the closing stock price on the date of the grant. The total value is expensed over the vesting period of 12-48 months. In general, options expire ten years from the date of grant. The maximum number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock available for issuance over the term of the 2005 Plan may not exceed 5,000,000 shares, plus that number of additional shares equal to 2.5% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the last trading day of the calendar year commencing with calendar year 2006 (but not in excess of 750,000 shares). On October 11, 2007, the Shareholders voted to approve an amendment to the 2005 Stock Option / Stock Issuance plan to increase the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2005 Plan from 5,000,000 shares (plus an annual increase) to 7,000,000 shares (plus an annual increase).

consultant and, under the terms of the Company’s Stock Option Plan, will continue to vest in his existing, unvested option grants totaling 108,333 options.  The unvested portion of these option grants were valued by the Company at approximately $424,000 on July 1, 2005, utilizing the Black Scholes option pricing model.  With respect to Mr. Scheussler’s employee stock option agreements, the Company expensed approximately $42,000, $41,000 and $101,000 in the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
17. EQUITY TRANSACTIONS
On February 18, 2005, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors related to the private placement of 3,500,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The transaction closed on February 18, 2005 and the Company realized gross proceeds of $22.4 million from the financing before deducting commissions and other expenses. Offering costs related to the transaction totaled $1,613,000, comprised of $1,344,000 in commissions and $269,000 cash payments for legal and investment services, resulting in net proceeds of $20,786,000. The Company agreed to register for resale the shares of Common Stock issued in the private placement. Such registration statement became effective on June 17, 2005. The agreement provides for penalties of one percent (1%) of the purchase price per month should effectiveness of the registration not be maintained. C.E. Unterberg, Towbin LLC, the placement agent for the transaction, received a cash fee equal to 6% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Private Placement.
On July 28, 2005, the Shareholders approved a proposal to amend the Amended and restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized Common Shares from 30,000,000 to 50,000,000. Increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock is expected to provide the Company with additional capital resources to finance the long-term growth of the Company and with sufficient shares of Common Stock for stock splits. The additional shares of Common Stock could be issued for acquisitions and in public or private offerings, the proceeds of which could be used to finance the Company’s growth through increased working capital, expansion of existing businesses and other corporate purposes.
On December 14, 2006, the Company completed a fully marketed secondary, issuing 4,000,000 shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value, at a price of $14.75 per share, resulting in aggregate gross cash proceeds to the Company of $59,000,000 before deducting commissions and other expenses. Offering costs related to the transaction incurred in 2006 totaled $4,002,000, comprised of $3,304,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions and $698,000 cash payments for legal and investment services, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $54,998,000 as of December 31, 2006. On January 18, 2007 an additional 387,000 shares were sold under the same agreement. Offering costs related to the transaction incurred in 2007 totaled $368,000, comprised of $320,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions and $48,000 cash payments for legal and investment services, resulting in additional net proceeds to the Company of $5,341,000 as of December 31, 2007.
A Special Meeting of the Stockholders of the Company was held on September 28, 2007. This meeting was adjourned, and reconvened on October 11, 2007. At the reconvened Special Meeting, the Stockholders voted to approve an amendment to the 2005 Stock Option / Stock Issuance plan to increase the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2005 Plan from 5,000,000 shares (plus an annual increase) to 7,000,000 shares (plus an annual increase).

18. SHARES SUBJECT TO RESCISSION
Under our 1995 Stock Option / Stock Issuance Plan and 2005 Stock Option / Stock Issuance Plan (the “Plans”), the Company granted options to purchase shares of common stock to certain of our employees, directors and consultants. The issuances of common stock upon exercise of options that were granted under these Plans between March 2005 and August 2006 may not have been exempt from qualification under certain state securities laws and, as a result, the Company may have potential liability to the individuals who exercised these options.
The Company accounts for shares which have been issued that may be subject to rescission claims as a put liability based on the price to be paid for equity to be repurchased. Since equity instruments subject to rescission are redeemable at the holder’s option or upon the occurrence of an uncertain event not solely within the Company’s control, such equity instruments are outside the scope of SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, and its related interpretations. Under the SEC’s interpretation of generally accepted accounting principles, reporting such claims outside of stockholders’ equity is required, regardless of how remote the redemption event may be. However, during the relevant period for which the Plans were not in compliance with certain state securities laws, all of the individuals who exercised options sold all of the shares underlying the options exercised. As such, the Company does not feel that there is a material exposure for rescission of issued shares to those who exercised stock options as they had subsequently sold their shares and at a value greater than the option strike price and no longer hold the shares.
In addition to shares of common stock which were issued upon option exercises, certain option grants made under the Plans between March 2005 and August 2006 which have not yet been exercised may not have been exempt from qualification under certain state securities laws. As a result, we may have potential liability to the individuals who received those option grants but who have not yet exercised those options. We may in the future choose to make a rescission offer to the holders of these outstanding options to give them the opportunity to rescind the grant of their options in exchange for a cash payment.
Prior to the implementation of SFAS 123(R) in January 2006, the Company accounted for share options under APB 25. Since all of the options under the Plans were granted at fair market value at the time of grant, no expense is recorded in our financial statements related to options that were vested prior to January 1, 2006. Under SFAS 123 (R), the first quarter results of 2006 included expense related to options that were granted prior to January 1, 2006 but had not vested at that date. Accordingly, no provision is made in our financial statements for options that were vested as of January 1, 2006, that were granted under the Plans which are not yet exercised, but may be subject to a rescission offer, if and when made. Should any optionees accept the rescission offer and put their options back to the Company, the Company will reflect such offer in our financial statements at that time.

As of March 11, 2008, assuming every eligible holder of unexercised options granted under the Plans during the period in question were to accept a rescission offer, we estimate the total cost to us to complete the rescission for the unexercised options would not be material to our financial condition.
