PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
CA, Inc.:
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of CA, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2009, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of CA, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated May 15, 2009, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2009, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

NOTE A — BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of CA, Inc. (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 270, for interim financial information and with the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 (2009 Form 10-K).
In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, these estimates may ultimately differ from actual results.
Operating results for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010.
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.
Basis of Revenue Recognition:
The Company generates revenue from the following primary sources: (1) licensing software products; (2) providing customer technical support (referred to as “maintenance”); and (3) providing professional services, such as product implementation, consulting and education. Revenue is recorded net of applicable sales taxes.
The Company begins to recognize revenue from licensing and maintenance when all of the following criteria are met: (1) the Company has evidence of an arrangement with a customer; (2) the Company delivers the products; (3) license agreement terms are fixed or determinable and free of contingencies or uncertainties that may alter the agreement such that it may not be complete and final; and (4) collection is probable.
The Company’s software licenses generally do not include acceptance provisions. An acceptance provision allows a customer to test the software for a defined period of time before committing to license the software. If a license agreement includes an acceptance provision, the Company does not recognize revenue until the earlier of the receipt of a written customer acceptance or, if not notified by the customer to cancel the license agreement, the expiration of the acceptance period.
Under the Company’s subscription model, implemented in October 2000, software license agreements typically combine the right to use specified software products, the right to maintenance, and the right to receive unspecified future software products for no additional fee during the term of the agreement. Under these subscription licenses, once all four of the above-noted revenue recognition criteria are met, the Company is required under GAAP to recognize revenue ratably over the term of the license agreement.
For license agreements signed prior to October 2000, once all four of the above-noted revenue recognition criteria were met, software license fees were recognized as revenue generally when the software was delivered to the customer, or “up-front” (as the contracts did not include a right to unspecified future software products), and the maintenance fees were deferred and subsequently recognized as revenue over the term of the license. Currently, a relatively small amount of the Company’s revenue from software licenses is recognized on an up-front basis, subject to meeting the same revenue recognition criteria as described above. Software fees from such licenses are recognized up-front and are reported in the “Software fees and other” line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Maintenance fees from such licenses are recognized ratably over the term of the license and are recorded on the “Subscription and maintenance revenue” line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. License agreements with software fees that are recognized up-front do not include the right to receive unspecified future software

products. However, in the event such license agreements are executed within close proximity to or in contemplation of other license agreements, for which we do not have vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value and are accounted for under the Company’s subscription model, with the same customer, the licenses together may be considered a single multi-element agreement, and all such revenue is required to be recognized ratably and is recorded as “Subscription and maintenance revenue” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Since the Company implemented its subscription model in October 2000, the Company’s practice with respect to products of newly acquired businesses with established VSOE has been to record revenue initially on the acquired company’s systems, generally under an up-front model; and, starting within the first fiscal year after the acquisition, to enter new licenses for such products under the Company’s subscription model, following which revenue is recognized ratably and recorded as “Subscription and maintenance revenue.” In some instances, the Company sells newly developed and recently acquired products on an up-front model. The software license fees from these contracts are presented as “Software fees and other.” Selling such licenses under an up-front model may result in higher total revenue in a current reporting period than if such licenses were based on the Company’s subscription model and the associated revenue recognized ratably.
Revenue from professional service arrangements is generally recognized as the services are performed. Revenue from committed professional services that are sold as part of a subscription license agreement is deferred and recognized on a ratable basis over the term of the related software license. If it is not probable that a project will be completed or the payment will be received, revenue recognition is deferred until the uncertainty is removed.
Revenue from sales to distributors, resellers, and value-added resellers commences when all four revenue recognition criteria noted above are met and when these entities sell the software product to their customers. This is commonly referred to as the sell-through method. Revenue from the sales of products to distributors, resellers and value-added resellers that include licensing terms providing the right for the end-users to receive certain unspecified future software products is recognized on a ratable basis.
The Company has an established business practice of offering installment payment options to customers and has a history of successfully collecting substantially all amounts due under such agreements. The Company assesses collectability based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the creditworthiness of the customer. If, in the Company’s judgment, collection of a fee is not probable, revenue will not be recognized until the uncertainty is removed, which is generally through the receipt of cash payment.
For further information, refer to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s 2009 Form 10-K.
Cash Dividends:
In July 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.04 per share. The dividend totaled approximately $21 million and was paid on August 19, 2009 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 10, 2009. In May 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.04 per share. The dividend totaled approximately $21 million and was paid on June 16, 2009 to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 31, 2009.
In September 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.04 per share.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held in numerous locations throughout the world, with approximately 43% and 50% held by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries outside the United States as of September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively.
Restricted Cash:
The Company’s insurance subsidiary requires a minimum restricted cash balance of $50 million. In addition, the Company has other restricted cash balances, including cash collateral for letters of credit. The total amount of restricted cash was approximately $56 million as of September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009 and is included in the “Other noncurrent assets, net” line item in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These amounts consist of $50 million in money market funds with the remainder predominantly in cash.
Deferred Revenue (Billed or Collected):
The Company accounts for unearned revenue on billed amounts due from customers on a “gross method” of presentation. Under the gross method, unearned revenue on billed installments (collected or uncollected) is reported as deferred revenue in the liability section of the balance sheet. The components of “Deferred revenue (billed or collected) — current” and “Deferred revenue (billed or collected) — noncurrent” as of September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009 are as follows:

Deferred revenue (billed or collected) excludes unrealized revenue from contractual obligations that will be billed by the Company in future periods.
Concentration of Credit Risk:
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, derivatives and accounts receivable. The Company holds cash and cash equivalents in major financial institutions and related money market funds. The Company has not historically experienced any losses in its cash and cash equivalent portfolios.
Amounts included in accounts receivable expected to be collected from customers, as disclosed in Note E, “Trade and Installment Accounts Receivable,” have limited exposure to concentration of credit risk due to the diverse customer base and geographic areas covered by operations. Unbilled amounts due under the Company’s prior business model that are expected to be collected from customers include one large IT outsourcer with a license arrangement that extends through fiscal year 2012 with a net unbilled receivable balance of approximately $185 million at September 30, 2009.

(unaudited)
Prior to fiscal year 2001, the Company sold individual accounts receivable from certain financial institutions to a third party subject to certain recourse provisions. The outstanding principal balances subject to recourse of these receivables were approximately $20 million and $38 million as of September 30 and March 31, 2009, respectively.
Stock Repurchases:
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Company entered into a brokerage arrangement with a third-party financial institution to purchase the Company’s common stock in the open market on the Company’s behalf. The Company acquired approximately 2 million of its common shares for approximately $50 million under this arrangement during the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, approximately $45 million of which was paid to the third-party financial institution in settlement of purchases during the quarter. As of September 30, 2009, the Company remained authorized to purchase an aggregate amount of up to approximately $196 million of additional common shares under its current stock repurchase program.
Statement of Cash Flows:
For the six-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, interest payments were $34 million and $57 million, respectively, and income taxes paid were $176 million and $137 million, respectively.
Non-cash financing activities for the six-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 consisted of treasury shares issued in connection with the following: share-based incentive awards issued under the Company’s equity compensation plans of approximately $63 million (net of approximately $22 million of withholding taxes) and $52 million (net of approximately $25 million of withholding taxes), respectively; the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan of approximately $21 million and $17 million, respectively; and discretionary stock contributions to the CA, Inc. Savings Harvest Plan of approximately $33 million and $19 million, respectively.
Adoption of new accounting standards:
Effective September 15, 2009, the Company adopted the requirements of FASB ASC 105 (previously SFAS No 168, “FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles"). FASB ASC 105 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009 and establishes the ASC as the source of authoritative GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The adoption of the ASC was not intended to change or alter existing GAAP and therefore did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. References to the relevant ASC section and the previously existing GAAP standard have been provided for accounting standards adopted in fiscal year 2010 but prior to the effective date of the ASC.
Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 820 (previously SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements") for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), for which the requirements were adopted on April 1, 2008. The April 1, 2009 adoption did not have an impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the requirements of FASB ASC 260-10-45 (previously FASB Staff Position (FSP) Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 03-6-1 (FSP EITF 03-6-1), "Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities”) for unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid). These awards are treated as participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method. This adoption required all prior-period earnings per share data to be adjusted retrospectively. The adoption did not have a

material impact on the Company’s previously reported earnings per share. See Note C, “Income Per Common Share” for additional information regarding the Company’s earnings per share calculation.
Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the requirements of FASB ASC 470-20 (previously FSP Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement))” for convertible debt instruments that have cash settlement features. These requirements included separation of the liability and equity components of the instruments. The debt is recognized at the present value of its cash flows discounted using the issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate at the time of issuance with the resulting debt discount being amortized over the expected life of the debt. The equity component is recognized as the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the convertible debt instrument and the fair value of the liability. The adoption required retrospective application to all periods presented, and did not grandfather existing instruments. Accordingly, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2009 and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008 have been revised.
The Company estimated a borrowing rate of 11% for a similar non-convertible instrument at the time the Company’s $460 million 1.625% Convertible Senior Notes due December 2009 (the 1.625% Senior Notes) were issued. The fair value at issuance of the liability component of the 1.625% Senior Notes assuming an interest rate of 11% was $251 million, reflecting a discount of $209 million. This discount is being amortized to interest expense over a seven-year period ending December 2009, the date on which holders of the 1.625% Senior Notes may first require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 1.625% Senior Notes at a price of $20.04 per share.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2009 has been revised to reflect a reduction in current debt of $29 million for the remaining unamortized discount, an increase in additional paid in capital of $129 million for the equity component (net of deferred taxes of $80 million), a decrease in retained earnings of $111 million for the cumulative expense from amortization of the discount, and a decrease to deferred tax assets of $11 million.
The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2008 has been revised to reflect an increase in interest expense of $11 million, a decrease in income tax expense of approximately $4 million, a decrease in net income of $7 million and a decrease in basic earnings per share of $0.01. The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended September 30, 2008 has been revised to reflect an increase in interest expense of $18 million, a decrease in income tax expense of approximately $7 million, a decrease in net income of $11 million and a decrease in basic earnings per share of $0.02. Diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008 was not affected. The recognition of interest expense at 11% decreased the Company’s reported net income for fiscal year 2009 by approximately $23 million as compared with the stated interest rate of 1.625%.
The unamortized discount associated with the 1.625% Senior Notes was approximately $9 million at September 30, 2009. Total interest expense associated with the 1.625% Senior Notes was approximately $14 million and $24 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009, respectively and approximately $13 million and $22 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.
Concurrent with the issuance of the 1.625% Senior Notes, the Company entered into call spread repurchase option transactions to partially mitigate potential dilution from conversion of the 1.625% Senior Notes. See the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2009 Form 10-K for more information about the call spread repurchase options.
Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 820-10-50 (previously FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial

Instruments"). These disclosures have been provided in Note G, “Derivatives and Fair Value Measurements.”
Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the requirements of FASB ASC 855 (previously FASB SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events”) for subsequent events, which established standards for the accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are available to be issued (subsequent events). These standards are largely the same guidance on subsequent events which previously existed only in auditing literature. The requirements include disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated, as well as whether that date is the date the financial statements were issued or the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
For purposes of this interim financial information, October 23, 2009 is the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and represents the date the financial statements were issued.
NOTE B — COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Comprehensive income includes net income, unrealized gains on cash flow hedges and foreign currency translation adjustments. The components of comprehensive income for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 are as follows:

NOTE C — INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the requirements of FASB ASC 260-10-45 (previously FSP EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities”) for unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid). These awards are treated as participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method. This adoption required all prior-period earnings per share data to be adjusted retrospectively. The implementation of this accounting standard and the adoption of FASB ASC 470-20 (previously FSP APB 14-1) resulted in a reduction of $0.02 and $0.03 in basic earnings per common share as reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. Diluted earnings per common share was not affected.
Under the two-class method, net earnings are reduced by the amount of dividends declared in the period for each class of common stock and participating securities. The remaining undistributed earnings are then allocated to common stock and participating securities as if all of the net earnings for the period had been distributed. Basic earnings per common share excludes dilution and is calculated by dividing net earnings allocable to common shares by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net earnings allocable to common shares by the weighted-average number of common shares as of the balance sheet date, as adjusted for the potential dilutive effect of non-participating share-based awards and convertible

For the six months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, approximately 14 million and 11 million of restricted stock awards and options to purchase common stock, respectively, were excluded from the calculation, as their effect on earnings per share was anti-dilutive during the respective periods.

The value of performance share unit (PSU) awards are marked to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day of the quarter until the PSUs are granted. Compensation costs for the PSUs are amortized over the requisite service periods based on the expected level of achievement of the performance targets. At the conclusion of the performance periods for the PSUs, the applicable number of shares of restricted stock awards (RSAs) or restricted stock units (RSUs) or unrestricted shares granted may vary based upon the level of achievement of the performance targets and the approval of the Company’s Compensation and Human Resources Committee (which has discretion to reduce any award for any reason).
For the three and six months ended September 30, 2009, the Company issued options covering 0.1 million shares of common stock. The weighted average fair value and assumptions used for options granted in the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 were: fair value, $6.81; dividend yield, 0.77%; expected volatility factor, 0.33; risk-free interest rate, 2.3%; and expected term, 6 years. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2008 the Company did not issue options.

NOTE E — TRADE AND INSTALLMENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Company uses installment license agreements as a standard business practice and has a history of successfully collecting substantially all amounts due under the original payment terms without making concessions on payments, software products, maintenance, or professional services. Net trade and installment accounts receivable represent amounts due from the Company’s customers. These accounts receivable balances are presented net of allowances for doubtful accounts and unamortized discounts. Unamortized discounts reflect imputed interest for the time value of money for license agreements under the Company’s prior business model. These balances do not include unbilled contractual commitments executed under the Company’s current business model. The components of Net trade and installment accounts receivable are as follows:

The carrying value of goodwill was approximately $5,366 million and $5,364 million as of September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively.
NOTE G — DERIVATIVES AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company is exposed to certain financial market risks relating to its business operations, including changes in interest rates, which could impact the value of its financial assets and liabilities, and foreign exchange rate risks associated with the Company’s foreign operations, which could affect foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and forecasted transactions. The Company enters into derivative contracts with the intent of mitigating a portion of these risks.
During the first six months of fiscal years 2010 and 2009, the Company did not designate its foreign exchange derivatives as hedges. Accordingly, all foreign exchange derivatives are recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and unrealized and realized changes in fair value from these contracts are recorded as “Other expenses, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
During fiscal year 2009, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with a total notional value of $250 million to hedge a portion of its variable interest rate payments. These derivatives are designated as cash

flow hedges. The effective portion of these cash flow hedges are recorded as “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and reclassified into “Interest expense, net,” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portions of the cash flow hedges are recorded immediately to “Interest expense, net.” No ineffectiveness existed at September 30, 2009 or at March 31, 2009.

At September 30 and March 31, 2009, the Company did not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).
At September 30 and March 31, 2009, the Company had approximately $1,453 million and $1,567 million, respectively, of investments in money market funds classified as “Cash and cash equivalents” in its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company also had approximately $645 million and $405 million, respectively, in treasury bills, classified as “Cash and cash equivalents.” The Company had $50 million of money market funds in restricted cash amounts classified as “Other noncurrent assets, net” at both September 30 and March 31, 2009.
At September 30, 2009, approximately $5 million of foreign exchange derivatives were included in “Other Current Liabilities”. At March 31, 2009, the Company had no foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss includes approximately $6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2009 related to the Company’s interest rate derivatives. The amount of loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into “Interest expense, net” was approximately $1 million and $3 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009. In the next twelve months, approximately $6 million is expected to be reclassified from “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” to income.

The fair value of the Company’s call spread repurchase option associated with the 1.625% Senior Notes at September 30, 2009 was $59 million which was based on quoted prices for similar securities. See the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2009 Form 10-K for more information about the call spread repurchase options.
NOTE H — RESTRUCTURING
Fiscal 2007 Plan: In August 2006, the Company announced the Fiscal 2007 plan to significantly improve the Company’s expense structure and increase its competitiveness. The Fiscal 2007 plan’s objectives included a workforce reduction, global facilities consolidations and other cost reduction initiatives. The Company has recognized substantially all of the costs associated with the Fiscal 2007 plan.
The Company currently estimates a reduction in workforce of approximately 3,100 individuals under the Fiscal 2007 plan. Most of these actions have been completed; however, final payment of the severance amounts is dependent upon settlement with the works councils in certain international locations. The Company has also recognized substantially all of the facilities abandonment costs associated with the Fiscal 2007 plan.
For the six months ended September 30, 2009, restructuring activity under the Fiscal 2007 plan was as follows:
                 
            Facilities  
    Severance     Abandonment  
    (in millions)  
Accrued balance as of March 31, 2009

    (23 )     (9 )
 
           
Accrued balance as of September 30, 2009
  $ 22     $ 62  
 
           
The liability balance for the severance portion of the remaining reserve is included in the “Accrued salaries, wages and commissions” line on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The liability for the facilities abandonment portion of the remaining reserve is included in the “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Other noncurrent liabilities” line items on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
NOTE I — INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 was $99 million and $212 million, respectively, compared with the three and six months ended September 30, 2008 of $115 million and $216 million, respectively.
For the three and six months ended September 30, 2009, the Company’s tax provision included a benefit from the resolution of uncertain tax positions relating to non-U.S. jurisdictions which resulted in a decrease in the liability for uncertain tax positions of $16 million. As a result, the Company recognized a tax benefit of $7 million, with the remainder offset against existing tax refund claims and deferred tax assets previously recorded. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, the Company’s tax provision included a benefit from the settlement of a U.S. federal income tax audit for the fiscal years 2001 through 2004, which resulted in a decrease in the liability for uncertain tax positions of $55 million. As a result of this settlement, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, the Company recognized a tax benefit of $11 million and a reduction of goodwill by $10 million, with the remainder offset against existing tax refund claims and deferred tax assets previously recorded.

NOTE J — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Certain legal proceedings in which the Company is involved are discussed in Note 8, “Commitments and Contingencies,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2009 Form 10-K. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the 2009 Form 10-K.
Stockholder Class Action and Derivative Lawsuits Filed Prior to 2004 — Background
The Company, its former Chairman and CEO Charles B. Wang, its former Chairman and CEO Sanjay Kumar, its former Chief Financial Officer Ira Zar, and its Vice Chairman and Founder Russell M. Artzt were defendants in one or more stockholder class action lawsuits filed in July 1998, February 2002, and March 2002 in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York (the Federal Court), alleging, among other things, that a class consisting of all persons who purchased the Company’s Common Stock during the period from January 20, 1998 until July 22, 1998 were harmed by misleading statements, misrepresentations, and omissions regarding the Company’s future financial performance.
In addition, in May 2003, a class action lawsuit captioned John A. Ambler v. Computer Associates International, Inc., et al. was filed in the Federal Court. The complaint in this matter, a purported class action on behalf of the CA Savings Harvest Plan (the CASH Plan) and the participants in, and beneficiaries of, the CASH Plan for a class period from March 30, 1998 through May 30, 2003, asserted claims of breach of fiduciary duty under the federal Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). The named defendants were the Company, the Company’s Board of Directors, the CASH Plan, the Administrative Committee of the CASH Plan, and the following current or former employees and/or former directors of the Company: Messrs. Wang, Kumar, Zar, Artzt, Peter A. Schwartz (the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer), and Charles P. McWade (the Company’s former head of Financial Reporting and Business Development); and various unidentified alleged fiduciaries of the CASH Plan. The complaint alleged that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by causing the CASH Plan to invest in Company securities and sought damages in an unspecified amount.
A stockholder derivative lawsuit was filed by Charles Federman against certain then current and former directors of the Company, based on essentially the same allegations as those contained in the February and March 2002 stockholder lawsuits discussed above. This action was commenced in April 2002 in the Delaware Chancery Court, and an amended complaint was filed in November 2002. The defendants named in the amended complaint were former Company directors The Honorable Alfonse M. D’Amato, Shirley Strum Kenny and Messrs. Wang, Kumar, Artzt, Willem de Vogel, Richard Grasso, Roel Pieper, and Lewis S. Ranieri. The Company was named as a nominal defendant. The derivative suit alleged breach of fiduciary duties on the part of all the individual defendants and, as against the former management director defendants, insider trading on the basis of allegedly misappropriated confidential, material information. The amended complaint sought an accounting and recovery on behalf of the Company of an unspecified amount of damages, including recovery of the profits allegedly realized from the sale of Common Stock.
On August 25, 2003, the Company announced the settlement of the above-described class action lawsuits against the Company and certain of its present and former officers and directors, alleging misleading statements, misrepresentations, and omissions regarding the Company’s financial performance, as well as breaches of fiduciary duty. At the same time, the Company also announced the settlement of a derivative lawsuit, in which the Company was named as a nominal defendant, filed against certain present and former officers and directors of the Company, alleging breaches of fiduciary duty and, against certain management directors, insider trading, as well as the settlement of an additional derivative action filed by Charles Federman that had been pending in the Federal Court. As part of the class action settlement, which was approved by the Federal Court in December 2003, the Company agreed to issue a total of up to 5.7 million shares of Common Stock to the stockholders represented in the three class action lawsuits, including payment of attorneys’ fees. The Company completed the issuance of the settlement shares as well as payment of $3.3 million to the plaintiffs’ attorneys in legal fees and related expenses in 2004.

In settling the derivative suits, which settlement was approved by the Federal Court in December 2003, the Company committed to maintain certain corporate governance practices. Under the settlement, the Company, the individual defendants and all other then current and former officers and directors of the Company were released from any potential claim by stockholders arising from accounting-related or other public statements made by the Company or its agents from January 1998 through February 2002 (and from March 11, 1998 through May 2003 in the case of the employee ERISA action). The individual defendants were released from any potential claim by or on behalf of the Company relating to the same matters.
On October 5, 2004 and December 9, 2004, four purported Company stockholders served motions to vacate the Order of Final Judgment and Dismissal entered by the Federal Court in December 2003 in connection with the settlement of the derivative action. These motions primarily sought to void the releases that were granted to the individual defendants under the settlement. On December 7, 2004, a motion to vacate the Order of Final Judgment and Dismissal entered by the Federal Court in December 2003 in connection with the settlement of the 1998 and 2002 stockholder lawsuits discussed above (together with the October 5, 2004 and December 9, 2004 motions, the 60(b) Motions) was filed by Sam Wyly and certain related parties (the Wyly Litigants). The motion sought to reopen the settlement to permit the moving stockholders to pursue individual claims against certain present and former officers of the Company. The motion stated that the moving stockholders did not seek to file claims against the Company.
Derivative Actions Filed in 2004
In June and July 2004, three purported derivative actions were filed in the Federal Court by Ranger Governance, Ltd. (Ranger), Bert Vladimir and Irving Rosenzweig against certain current or former employees and/or directors of the Company (the Derivative Actions). In November 2004, the Federal Court issued an order consolidating the Derivative Actions. The plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint (the Consolidated Complaint) on January 7, 2005. The Consolidated Complaint names as defendants Messrs. Wang, Kumar, Zar, McWade, Schwartz, de Vogel, Grasso, Pieper, Artzt, D’Amato, and Ranieri, Stephen Richards, Steven Woghin, David Kaplan, David Rivard, Lloyd Silverstein, Michael A. McElroy, Gary Fernandes, Robert E. La Blanc, Jay W. Lorsch, Kenneth Cron, Walter P. Schuetze, KPMG LLP, and Ernst & Young LLP. The Company is named as a nominal defendant. The Consolidated Complaint seeks from one or more of the defendants (1) contribution towards the consideration the Company had previously agreed to provide then current and former stockholders in settlement of certain class action litigation commenced against the Company and certain officers and directors in 1998 and 2002 (see “Stockholder Class Action and Derivative Lawsuits Filed Prior to 2004 — Background”), (2) compensatory and consequential damages in an amount not less than $500 million in connection with the investigations giving rise to the Deferred Prosecution Agreement (DPA) entered into between the Company and the United States Attorney’s Office (USAO) in 2004 and a consent to enter into a final judgment (Consent Judgment) in a parallel proceeding brought by the SEC regarding certain of the Company’s past accounting practices, including its revenue recognition policies and procedures during certain periods prior to the adoption of the Company’s new business model in October 2000. (In May 2007, based upon the Company’s compliance with the terms of the DPA, the Federal Court ordered dismissal of the charges that had been filed against the Company in connection with the DPA, and the DPA expired. The injunctive provisions of the Consent Judgment permanently enjoining the Company from violating certain provisions of the federal securities laws remain in effect.), (3) unspecified relief for violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act for alleged false and material misstatements made in the Company’s proxy statements issued in 2002 and 2003, (4) relief for alleged breach of fiduciary duty, (5) unspecified compensatory, consequential and punitive damages based upon allegations of corporate waste and fraud, (6) unspecified damages for breach of duty of reasonable care, (7) restitution and rescission of the compensation earned under the Company’s executive compensation plan and (8) pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reimbursement of bonus or other incentive-based equity compensation and alleged profits realized from sales of securities issued by the Company. Although no relief is sought

from the Company, the Consolidated Complaint seeks monetary damages, both compensatory and consequential, from the other defendants, including current or former employees and/or directors of the Company, Ernst & Young LLP and KPMG LLP in an amount totaling not less than $500 million.
On February 1, 2005, the Company established a Special Litigation Committee of independent members of its Board of Directors to, among other things, control and determine the Company’s response to the Derivative Actions and the 60(b) Motions. On April 13, 2007, the Special Litigation Committee issued its reports, which announced the Special Litigation Committee’s conclusions, determinations, recommendations and actions with respect to the claims asserted in the Derivative Actions and the 60(b) Motions. The Special Litigation Committee also served a motion which seeks to dismiss and realign the claims and parties in accordance with the Special Litigation Committee’s recommendations. As summarized below, the Special Litigation Committee concluded as follows:
The Special Litigation Committee has concluded that it would be in the best interests of the Company to pursue certain of the claims against Messrs. Wang and Schwartz.
The Special Litigation Committee has concluded that it would be in the best interests of the Company to pursue certain of the claims against the former Company executives who have pled guilty to various charges of securities fraud and/or obstruction of justice — including Messrs. Kaplan, Richards, Rivard, Silverstein, Woghin and Zar. The Special Litigation Committee has determined and directed that these claims be pursued by the Company using counsel retained by the Company, unless the Special Litigation Committee is able to successfully conclude its ongoing settlement negotiations with these individuals.
The Special Litigation Committee has reached a settlement (subject to court approval) with Messrs. Kumar, McWade and Artzt.
The Special Litigation Committee believes that the claims (the Director Claims) against former Company directors Messrs. Cron, D’Amato, de Vogel, Fernandes, Grasso, La Blanc, Lorsch, Pieper, Ranieri and Schuetze, Ms. Kenny, and Alex Vieux should be dismissed. The Special Litigation Committee has concluded that these directors did not breach their fiduciary duties and the claims against them lack merit.
The Special Litigation Committee has concluded that it would be in the best interests of the Company to seek dismissal of the claims against Ernst & Young LLP, KPMG LLP and Mr. McElroy.
The Special Litigation Committee served a motion which sought dismissal of the Director Claims, the claims against Ernst & Young LLP, KPMG LLP and Mr. McElroy, and certain other claims. In addition, the Special Litigation Committee asked for the Federal Court’s approval for the Company to be realigned as the plaintiff with respect to claims against certain other parties, including Messrs. Wang and Schwartz.
Current Procedural Status of Stockholder Class Action and Derivative Lawsuits Filed Prior to 2004 and Derivative Actions Filed in 2004
By letter dated July 19, 2007, counsel for the Special Litigation Committee advised the Federal Court that the Special Litigation Committee had reached a settlement of the Derivative Actions with two of the three derivative plaintiffs — Bert Vladimir and Irving Rosenzweig. In connection with the settlement, both of these plaintiffs have agreed to support the Special Litigation Committee’s motion to dismiss and to realign. The Company has agreed to pay the attorney’s fees of Messrs. Vladimir and Rosenzweig in an amount up to $525,000 each. If finalized, this settlement would require approval of the Federal Court. On July 23, 2007, Ranger filed a letter with the Federal Court objecting to the proposed settlement. On October 29, 2007, the Federal Court denied the Special Litigation Committee’s motion to dismiss and realign, without prejudice to renewing the motion after a decision by the appellate court regarding the Federal Court’s decisions concerning the 60(b) Motions.
In a memorandum and order dated August 2, 2007, the Federal Court denied all of the 60(b) Motions and reaffirmed the 2003 settlements (the August 2 decision). On August 24, 2007, Ranger and the Wyly Litigants filed notices of appeal of the August 2 decision. On August 16, 2007, the Special Litigation

Committee filed a motion to amend or clarify the August 2 decision, and the Company joined that motion. On September 12, 2007 and October 4, 2007, the Federal Court issued opinions denying the motions to amend or clarify, and several parties then appealed these decisions. On July 23, 2009, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit issued a summary order affirming the August 2, September 12 and October 4, 2007 decisions of the Federal Court referenced above. The summary order also acknowledged that the Ranger Governance litigation that was part of the 2004 Derivative Actions was not before the Second Circuit and, therefore, the Company could renew its motion to dismiss and realign that had been dismissed without prejudice in the October 29, 2007 decision referenced above. On August 31, 2009, Ranger and the Wyly Litigants filed petitions for rehearing before the Second Circuit, which were denied by the Second Circuit on October 19, 2009.
Texas Litigation
On August 9, 2004, a petition was filed by Sam Wyly and Ranger against the Company in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas, seeking to obtain a declaratory judgment that plaintiffs did not breach two separation agreements they entered into with the Company in 2002 (the 2002 Agreements). On February 18, 2005, Mr. Wyly filed a separate lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (the Texas Federal Court) alleging that he is entitled to attorneys’ fees in connection with the original litigation filed in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas. The two actions have been consolidated and transferred to the Federal Court. On March 31, 2005, the plaintiffs amended their complaint to allege a claim that they were defrauded into entering the 2002 Agreements and to seek rescission of those agreements and damages. On September 18, 2009, the Federal Court issued an order granting the Company’s motion for summary judgment, and dismissing the action in its entirety.
Other Civil Actions
In 2004, the Company entered a voluntary disclosure agreement (VDA) with the State of Delaware, by which the Company agreed to disclose information about its failure to comply with certain abandoned property (“escheatment”) procedures and, in return, the State agreed, among other things, not to impose interest or conduct an audit. The Company engaged an independent consultant to review its records and provide an estimate of its liability to the State. The State refused to accept that estimate. In October 2008, the Company commenced an action entitled CA, Inc. v. Cordrey, et al, Civil Action No. 4111-CC in the Delaware Chancery Court (the Delaware Court) seeking, among other things, to compel the State to abide by its obligations under the VDA. In November 2008, the State filed a suit in the Delaware Court entitled Cordrey, et al v. CA, Inc. et al , Civil Action No. 4195-CC, that seeks to enforce a request for payment of abandoned property liability, compel an audit and impose interest. By an amended complaint, dated March 2, 2009, the State alleged, among other things, that the Company made material misrepresentations in and unreasonably delayed the VDA process and the state added causes of action for fraud and/or negligent misrepresentation. Although the ultimate outcome cannot be determined, the Company believes that the State’s claims are unfounded and that the Company has meritorious defenses. In the opinion of management, the resolution of this lawsuit is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In December 2008, a lawsuit captioned Information Protection and Authentication of Texas LLC v. Symantec Corp., et al. was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. The complaint seeks monetary damages in an undisclosed amount against twenty-two separate defendants including the Company based upon claims for direct and contributory infringement of two separate patents. The complaint does not disclose which of the Company’s products allegedly infringe the claimed patents. In discovery, plaintiff has asserted that three of CA’s security products containing firewall technology are at issue in this suit. In March 2009, the Company both answered the complaint and filed a cross-complaint seeking a declaratory judgment that the Company does not infringe the claimed patents and that such patents are invalid. Although the ultimate outcome cannot be determined, the Company believes that the claims are unfounded and that the Company has meritorious defenses. In the opinion of management, the resolution of this lawsuit is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

The Company, various subsidiaries, and certain current and former officers have been named as defendants in various other lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses in connection with such lawsuits and claims, and intends to vigorously contest each of them. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the results of these other lawsuits and claims, either individually or in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, although the impact could be material to any individual reporting period.
The Company is obligated to indemnify its officers and directors under certain circumstances to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. As a part of that obligation, the Company has advanced and will continue to advance certain attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by current and former officers and directors in various litigations and investigations arising out of similar allegations, including the litigation described above.
Additional information about litigation involving the Company’s directors and executive officers is contained in the Company’s periodic and other reports filed with the SEC.

A number of important factors could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including: given the global nature of our business, economic factors or political events beyond our control and other business risks associated with non-U.S. operations can affect our business in unpredictable ways; general economic conditions, including concerns regarding a global recession and credit constraints, or unfavorable economic conditions in a particular region, business or industry sector, may lead our customers to delay or forgo technology investments and could have other impacts, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow; changes to the compensation of our sales organization could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow; failure to expand our channel partner programs related to the sale of CA solutions may result in lost sales opportunities, increases in expenses and weakening in our competitive position; if we do not adequately manage and evolve our financial reporting and managerial systems and processes, including the successful implementation of our enterprise resource planning software, our ability to manage and grow our business may be harmed; we may encounter difficulties in successfully integrating companies and products that we have acquired or may acquire into our existing business and, therefore, such failed integration could materially adversely affect our infrastructure, market presence, or results of operations; we are subject to intense competition in product and service offerings and pricing, and we expect to face increased competition in the future, which could either diminish demand for or inhibit growth of our products and, therefore, reduce our sales, revenue and market presence; our business may suffer if we are not able to retain and attract qualified personnel, including key managerial, technical, marketing and sales personnel; failure to adapt to technological change in a timely manner could materially adversely affect our business; if our products do not remain compatible with ever-changing operating environments we could lose customers and the demand for our products and services could decrease, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow; certain software that we use in our products is licensed from third parties and thus may not be available to us in the future, which has the potential to delay product development and production and, therefore, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow; certain software we use is from open source code sources, which, under certain circumstances, may lead to unintended consequences and, therefore, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow; discovery of errors in our software could materially adversely affect our revenue and earnings and subject us to product liability claims, which may be costly and time consuming; we have a significant amount of debt; changes in market conditions or our ratings could increase our interest costs and adversely affect the cost of refinancing our debt and our ability to refinance our debt, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow; failure to protect our intellectual property rights and source code would weaken our competitive position; the number, terms and duration of our license agreements as well as the timing of orders from our customers and channel partners, may cause fluctuations in some of our key financial metrics, which may affect our quarterly financial results; we may become dependent upon large transactions, and the failure to close such transactions on a satisfactory basis could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow; our sales to government clients subject us to risks, including early termination, audits, investigations, sanctions and penalties; our customers’ data centers and

IT environments may be subject to hacking or other breaches, harming the market perception of the effectiveness of our product; our software products, data centers and IT environments may be subject to hacking or other breaches, harming the market perception of the effectiveness of our products; the use of third party microcode could negatively affect our product development; we may lose access to third-party operating systems, which could materially adversely affect future product development; third parties could claim that our products infringe their intellectual property rights or that we owe royalty payments, which could result in significant litigation expense or settlement with unfavorable terms, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow; fluctuations in foreign currencies could result in translation losses; any failure by us to execute our restructuring plans and related sales model changes successfully could result in total costs that are greater than expected or revenues that are less than anticipated; we have outsourced various functions to third parties and these arrangements may not be successful, thereby resulting in increased costs, or may adversely affect service levels and our public reporting; potential tax liabilities may materially adversely affect our results; and these factors and the other factors described more fully in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties occur, or should our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in this Form 10-Q as anticipated, believed, estimated, or expected. We do not intend to update these forward-looking statements, except as otherwise required by law.

Table of Contents

Analyses of our performance indicators, including general trends, can be found in the “Results of Operations” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” sections of this MD&A.
Subscription and Maintenance Revenue — Subscription and maintenance revenue is the amount of revenue recognized ratably during the reporting period from both: (i) subscription license agreements that were in effect during the period, generally including maintenance that is bundled with and not separately identifiable from software usage fees or product sales, and (ii) maintenance agreements associated with providing customer technical support and access to software fixes and upgrades that are separately identifiable from software usage fees or product sales. These amounts include the sale of products directly by us, as well as by distributors, resellers and value-added resellers to end-users, where the contracts incorporate the right for end-users to receive unspecified future software products and other contracts entered into in close proximity or contemplation of such agreements. Subscription license agreements can also include sales of products that are sold on a perpetual basis within close proximity to or in contemplation of the subscription agreements that cannot be accounted for separately because we have not established VSOE for these products.
Total Bookings — Total bookings includes the incremental value of all subscription, maintenance and professional service contracts and software fees and other contracts entered into during the reporting period.
Subscription and Maintenance Bookings — Subscription and maintenance bookings is the aggregate incremental amount we expect to collect from our customers over the terms of the underlying subscription and maintenance agreements entered into during a reporting period. These amounts include the sale of products directly by us, as well as indirectly by distributors, resellers and value-added resellers to end-users, where the contracts incorporate the right for end-users to receive unspecified future software products and other contracts without these rights entered into in close proximity or contemplation of such agreements. These amounts are expected to be recognized ratably as subscription and maintenance revenue over the applicable term of the agreement. Subscription and maintenance bookings excludes the value associated with certain perpetual based licenses, license-only indirect sales, and professional services arrangements.
The license and maintenance agreements that contribute to subscription and maintenance bookings represent binding payment commitments by customers over periods that range generally from three to five years, although in certain cases customer commitments can be for longer or shorter periods. The amount of new subscription and maintenance bookings recorded in a period is affected by the volume and value of contracts renewed during that period. Our subscription and maintenance bookings typically increase in each consecutive quarter during a fiscal year, with the first quarter being the least and the fourth quarter being the most. However, subscription and maintenance bookings may not always follow the pattern of increasing in consecutive quarters during a fiscal year, and the quarter to quarter differences in subscription and maintenance bookings may vary. Additionally, period-to-period changes in subscription and maintenance bookings do not necessarily correlate to changes in billings or cash receipts. The contribution to current period revenue from subscription and maintenance bookings from any single license or maintenance agreement is relatively small, since revenue is recognized ratably over the applicable term for these agreements.
Weighted Average Subscription and Maintenance License Agreement Duration in Years — The weighted average subscription and maintenance license agreement duration in years reflects the duration of all subscription and maintenance license agreements executed during a period, weighted by the total contract value of each individual agreement.
Annualized Subscription and Maintenance Bookings — Annualized subscription and maintenance bookings is an indicator that normalizes the bookings recorded in the current period as compared with the same metric in the prior period to account for contract length. It is calculated by dividing the total value of all new subscription and maintenance license agreements entered into during a period by the weighted average subscription and license agreement duration in years of all such license and maintenance agreements recorded during the same period.

Table of Contents

Total Revenue Backlog — Total revenue backlog represents the aggregate amount we expect to recognize as revenue in the future as either subscription and maintenance revenue, professional services revenue or software fees and other revenue associated with contractually committed amounts billed or to be billed as of the balance sheet date. Total revenue backlog is composed of amounts recognized as liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as deferred revenue (billed or collected) as well as unearned amounts associated with balances yet to be billed under subscription and maintenance and software fees and other agreements. Amounts are classified as current or non-current depending on when they are expected to be earned and therefore recognized as revenue. The portion of the total revenue backlog that relates to subscription and maintenance agreements is recognized as revenue evenly on a monthly basis over the duration of the underlying agreements and is reported as subscription and maintenance revenue in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
“Deferred revenue (billed or collected)” is composed of: (i) amounts received from customers in advance of revenue recognition, (ii) amounts billed but not collected for which revenue has not yet been earned, and (iii) amounts received in advance of revenue recognition from financial institutions where we have transferred our interest in committed installments (referred to as “Financing obligations” in the Deferred Revenue table in Note A, “Basis of Presentation” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Bookings
Total Bookings
For the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009, total bookings were $947 million and $1,502 million, respectively. For the first half of fiscal 2010 and 2009, total bookings were $2,145 million and $2,532 million, respectively. Bookings were adversely affected by lower scheduled contract renewals in the second quarter, especially in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region. Additionally, we signed several large contract extensions in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 that had terms of approximately five years, two of which added approximately $550 million to subscription and maintenance bookings. There were no contracts greater than $50 million signed during the second quarter of fiscal 2010. In addition, there was a reduction in professional services bookings and a softening in demand for products aimed at small and medium size businesses and the consumer market.
Subscription and Maintenance Bookings
For the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009, we added subscription and maintenance bookings of $854 million and $1,393 million, respectively. For the first half of fiscal 2010 and 2009, we added subscription and maintenance bookings of $1,944 million and $2,311 million, respectively. The decrease in subscription and maintenance bookings was primarily attributable to the aforementioned large contract extensions signed in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 and lower scheduled contract renewals during the second quarter of fiscal 2010. During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, we renewed a total of 18 license agreements with incremental contract values in excess of $10 million each, for an aggregate contract value of $366 million.

31


Table of Contents

This is compared with the prior fiscal year’s second quarter, when we renewed 17 license agreements with incremental contract values in excess of $10 million each, for an aggregate contract value of $892 million. The decrease in aggregate contract value and weighted average subscription and maintenance agreement duration in years was also primarily attributable to the aforementioned large contract extensions signed in the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
Revenue
Total Revenue
The decrease in total revenue for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2010 as compared with the prior periods was due to unfavorable foreign exchange effect of $42 million and $117 million, respectively, and a decrease in professional services revenue, partially offset against the higher annual value of existing customer subscription and maintenance contracts.
Price changes do not have a material impact on revenue in a given period as a result of our ratable subscription model.
Subscription and Maintenance Revenue
The decrease in subscription and maintenance revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared with the prior year period was due to a $37 million negative effect from foreign exchange. Excluding foreign exchange, subscription and maintenance revenue increased by $35 million primarily due to an increase in the annual value of existing customer contracts.
The decrease in subscription and maintenance revenue for the first half of fiscal 2010 as compared with the prior year period was due to a $104 million negative effect from foreign exchange. Excluding foreign exchange, subscription and maintenance revenue increased by $83 million primarily due to an increase in the annual value of existing customer contracts.
Professional Services
Professional services revenue decreased in the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2010, as compared with the same periods in fiscal 2009, primarily due to revenue decreases from reduced discretionary spending due to the difficult economic environment. Professional services revenue was also adversely affected by unfavorable foreign exchange effects of $4 million and $12 million for the second quarter and first half of fiscal year 2010, respectively.
Software Fees and Other
Software fees and other revenue primarily consists of revenue that is recognized on an up-front basis. This includes revenue generated through transactions with distribution and original equipment manufacturer channel partners (sometimes referred to as our “indirect” or “channel” revenue) and certain revenue associated with new or acquired products sold on an up-front basis. Also included is financing fee revenue, which results from the discounting of product sales recognized on an up-front basis with extended payment terms to present value. Revenue recognized on an up-front basis results in higher revenue for the current period than if the same revenue had been recognized ratably under our subscription model. Software fees and other revenue decreased in the second quarter and the first half of fiscal 2010, as compared with the same period in fiscal 2009, primarily due to decreased revenue to indirect customers.

Revenue in the United States increased by 2% and 4%, for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2010 as compared with the comparable periods of fiscal 2009, respectively. International revenue decreased by approximately 9%, and 11%, respectively, for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2010 as compared with the comparable periods of fiscal 2009, principally due to unfavorable impacts from foreign exchange of $42 million and $117 million for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2010, respectively.
Expenses
Costs of Licensing and Maintenance
Costs of licensing and maintenance includes technical support, royalties and other manufacturing and distribution costs. The decrease in costs of licensing and maintenance for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared with the second quarter of fiscal year 2009 was primarily due to a $4 million favorable foreign exchange variance and a $2 million decrease in royalty fees.
The decrease in costs of licensing and maintenance for the first half of fiscal 2010 as compared with the first half of fiscal year 2009 year was primarily due to an $8 million favorable foreign exchange variance and a $6 million decrease in royalty fees.
Cost of Professional Services
Cost of professional services consists primarily of our personnel-related costs associated with providing professional services and training to customers. For the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the cost of professional services decreased as compared with the prior year period primarily due to an $18 million decrease in consulting and personnel costs, mostly related to reduced revenues, and a $5 million favorable foreign exchange variance.
For the first half of fiscal year 2010, the costs of professional services decreased as compared with the prior year period primarily due to a $25 million decrease in consulting and personnel costs, mostly related to reduced revenues, and a $12 million favorable foreign exchange variance.

Amortization of Capitalized Software Costs
Amortization of capitalized software costs consists of the amortization of both purchased software and internally generated capitalized software development costs. Internally generated capitalized software development costs relate to new products and significant enhancements to existing software products that have reached the technological feasibility stage.
The increase in amortization of capitalized software costs for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2010 as compared with the prior year periods were primarily due to the increase in activities relating to projects that were capitalized during prior periods.
Selling and Marketing
Selling and marketing expenses include the costs relating to our sales force, costs relating to our channel partners, corporate and business marketing costs and our customer training programs. The decline in selling and marketing expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2009 was primarily due to reduced consulting and personnel costs and a favorable foreign exchange effect of $12 million.
The decline in selling and marketing expenses for the first half of fiscal 2010 compared with the first half of fiscal 2009 was primarily due to favorable foreign exchange effect of $29 million and reduced consulting and other costs.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include the costs of corporate and support functions including our executive leadership and administration groups, finance, legal, human resources, corporate communications and other costs such as provisions for doubtful accounts. During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, we recognized severance and other related expenses of $7 million for amounts owed to our Chief Executive Officer pursuant to his employment agreement and other items relating to the transition to his successor.
For the first half of fiscal 2010, general and administrative costs decreased as compared with the prior year period primarily due to a favorable foreign exchange effect of $6 million offset by higher severance and other related expenses as described above.
Product Development and Enhancements
For the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, product development and enhancements expenses represented approximately 11% of total revenue in each period. For the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, product development and enhancements decreased primarily due to a favorable foreign exchange effect of $5 million.
Excluding a favorable foreign exchange effect of $11 million, product development and enhancements expenses for the first half of fiscal 2010 increased from the first half of fiscal 2009, primarily due to increased personnel costs, an increase to our investment in product development and enhancements for emerging technologies, and broadening of our enterprise product offerings. These increases were partially offset by an increase in capitalization of internally developed software for strategic investments in our security, mainframe and infrastructure management products.
Depreciation and Amortization of Other Intangible Assets
The increases in depreciation and amortization of other intangible assets for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2010 as compared with the prior year periods were primarily due to the number of fixed assets placed into service during the current fiscal year.
Other Expenses, Net
Other expenses, net includes gains and losses attributable to divested assets, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, and certain other items. For the first half of fiscal 2010, other expenses, net included $7 million in connection with litigation claims.

Restructuring and Other
For the first half of fiscal 2010, we recorded less than $1 million of restructuring charges for severance and other termination benefits and facility abandonment principally related to the Fiscal 2007 plan. Substantially all of the costs associated with the Fiscal 2007 plan have been incurred. The Fiscal 2007 plan’s objectives include a workforce reduction, global facilities consolidations and other cost reduction initiatives. Final payment of these amounts is dependent upon settlement with the works councils in certain international locations and our ability to negotiate lease terminations. For further information on the Fiscal 2007 plan refer to Note H, “Restructuring,” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Interest Expense, Net
The increase in interest expense, net, for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2010 as compared with the prior year periods, was primarily due to a decline in short-term interest rates.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2010 was $99 million and $212 million, respectively, compared with the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2009 of $115 million and $216 million, respectively. The effective tax rates for the first half of fiscal 2010 and 2009 were 34% and 35%, respectively.
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, we resolved certain uncertain tax positions relating to non-U.S. jurisdictions which resulted in a decrease in the liability for uncertain tax positions of $16 million. As a result, we recognized a tax benefit of $7 million, with the remainder offset against existing tax refund claims and deferred tax assets previously recorded. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, we settled a U.S. federal income tax audit for the fiscal years 2001 through 2004 which resulted in a decrease in the liability for uncertain tax positions of $55 million. As a result of this settlement, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, we recognized a tax benefit of $11 million and a reduction of goodwill by $10 million, with the remainder offset against existing tax refund claims and deferred tax assets previously recorded.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash balances, including cash equivalents, are held in numerous locations throughout the world, with 43% residing outside the United States at September 30, 2009. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $3,025 million as of September 30, 2009, representing an increase of $313 million from the March 31, 2009 balance of $2,712 million. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $156 million during the first six months of fiscal 2010 due to the favorable translation effect that foreign currency exchange rates had on cash held outside the United States in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Cash generated by operating activities, which represents our primary source of liquidity, increased $110 million in the first half of fiscal 2010 to $382 million from $272 million in the first half of fiscal 2009. For the first half of fiscal 2010, accounts receivable decreased by $190 million, compared with a decline in the comparable prior year period of $299 million. For the first half of fiscal 2010, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities decreased $13 million compared with a decrease in the prior year period of $78 million.
Under our subscription and maintenance agreements, customers generally make installment payments over the term of the agreement, often with at least one payment due at contract execution, for the right to use our software products and receive product support, software fixes and new products when available. The timing and actual amounts of cash received from committed customer installment payments under any specific agreement can be affected by several factors, including the time value of money and the customer’s credit rating. Often, the amount received is the result of direct negotiations with the customer when establishing pricing and payment terms. In certain instances, the customer negotiates a price for a single up-front installment payment and seeks its own internal or external financing sources. In other instances, we may assist the customer by arranging financing on their behalf through a third party financial institution. Alternatively, we may decide to transfer our rights to the future committed installment payments due under the license agreement to a third party financial institution in exchange for a cash payment. Once transferred,

35


Table of Contents

the future committed installments are payable by the customer to the third party financial institution. Whether the future committed installments have been financed directly by the customer with our assistance or by the transfer of our rights to future committed installments to a third party, such financing agreements may contain limited recourse provisions with respect to our continued performance under the license agreements. Based on our historical experience, we believe that any liability that we may incur as a result of these limited recourse provisions will be immaterial.
Amounts billed or collected as a result of a single installment for the entire contract value, or a substantial portion of the contract value, rather than being invoiced and collected over the life of the license agreement are reflected in the liability section of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as “Deferred revenue (billed or collected).” Amounts received from either a customer or a third-party financial institution that are attributable to later years of a license agreement have a positive impact on billings and cash provided by operating activities in the current period. Accordingly, to the extent such collections are attributable to the later years of a license agreement, billings and cash provided by operating activities during the license’s later years will be lower than if the payments were received over the license term. We are unable to predict with certainty the amount of cash to be collected from single installments for the entire contract value, or a substantial portion of the contract value, under new or renewed license agreements to be executed in future periods.
For the second quarter of fiscal 2010, gross receipts related to single installments for the entire contract value, or a substantial portion of the contract value, were $55 million, compared with $133 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2009. For the first half of fiscal 2010, gross receipts related to single installments for the entire contract value, or a substantial portion of the contract value, were $219 million compared with $193 million in the first half of fiscal 2009.
In any quarter, we may receive payments in advance of the contractually committed date on which the payments were otherwise due. In limited circumstances, we may offer discounts to customers to ensure payment in the current period of invoices that have been billed, but might not otherwise be paid until a subsequent period because of payment terms or other factors. Historically, any such discounts have not been material.
Our estimate of the fair value of net installment accounts receivable recorded under the prior business model approximates carrying value. Amounts due from customers under our current business model are offset by deferred revenue related to these license agreements, leaving no or minimal net carrying value on the balance sheet for such amounts. The fair value of such amounts may exceed or be less than this carrying value but cannot be practically assessed since there is no existing market for a pool of customer receivables with contractual commitments similar to those owned by us. The actual fair value may not be known until these amounts are sold, securitized or collected. Although these customer license agreements commit the customer to payment under a fixed schedule, to the extent amounts are not yet due and payable by the customer, the agreements are considered executory in nature due to our ongoing commitment to provide maintenance and unspecified future software products as part of the agreement terms.
We can estimate the total amounts to be billed from committed contracts, referred to as our “Billings backlog,” and the total amount to be recognized as revenue from committed contracts, referred to as our “Revenue backlog.” The aggregate amounts of our billings backlog and trade and installment receivables already reflected on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets represent the amounts we expect to collect in the future from committed contracts.

In any fiscal year, cash generated by operating activities typically increases in each consecutive quarter throughout the fiscal year, with the fourth quarter being the highest and the first quarter being the lowest, which may even be negative. The timing of cash generated during the fiscal year is affected by many factors, including the timing of new or renewed contracts and the associated billings, as well as the timing of any customer financing or transfer of our interest in such contractual installments. Other factors that influence the levels of cash generated throughout the quarter can include the level and timing of expenditures.

Second Quarter Comparison — Fiscal Year 2010 versus Fiscal Year 2009
Operating Activities:
Cash generated by operating activities for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 was $120 million, representing a decrease of $98 million compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2009. The decrease was driven primarily by lower collections of $145 million, mostly due to a $78 million decrease in single-installment receipts, partially offset by an $85 million decrease in vendor disbursements and payroll.
Investing Activities:
Cash used in investing activities for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 was $69 million compared with $53 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2009. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the increase in capitalized software development costs of $15 million that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
Financing Activities:
Cash used in financing activities for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 was $67 million compared with $22 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2009. The increase in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to the repurchase of our common stock for $45 million. We did not repurchase any common stock during the second quarter of fiscal 2009.

First Half Comparison — Fiscal Year 2010 versus Fiscal Year 2009
Operating Activities:
Cash generated by operating activities for the first half of fiscal 2010 was $382 million, representing an increase of $110 million compared with the prior year period. The increase was driven primarily by lower vendor disbursements and payroll of $198 million partially offset by an $83 million decrease in cash collections from billings, primarily resulting from lower amounts billed that resulted from reduced bookings volume during the period.
Investing Activities:
Cash used in investing activities for the first half of fiscal 2010 was $136 million compared with $128 million for the comparable prior year period. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the increase in capitalized software development costs of $18 million that occurred during the first half of fiscal 2010 as compared with the first half of fiscal 2009 and an increase of $9 million in other investing activities which included proceeds from sales of assets and a decrease in restricted cash, partially offset by lower cash payments of $16 million for the acquisition of purchased software.
Financing Activities:
Cash used in financing activities for the first half of fiscal 2010 was $89 million compared with $390 million in the comparable prior year period. The primary financing activities for the first half of fiscal 2010 were the repurchase of our common stock for $45 million and dividend payments of $42 million. We paid off the remaining $350 million principal amount of our 6.50% Senior Notes that was due during the first half of fiscal 2009.
Debt Arrangements
As of September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, our debt arrangements consisted of the following:

Our debt arrangements at September 30, 2009 remain unchanged from March 31, 2009, except as follows:
1.625% Convertible Senior Notes due December 2009
Effective April 1, 2009, we adopted the requirements of FASB ASC 470-20 (previously FSP Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement))” for convertible debt instruments that have cash settlement features. These requirements included separation of the liability and equity components of the instruments. The debt is recognized at the present value of its cash flows discounted using the issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate at the time of issuance with the resulting debt discount being amortized over the expected life of the debt. The equity component is recognized as the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the convertible debt instrument and the fair value of the liability. The adoption required retrospective application to all periods presented, and did not grandfather existing instruments.
Upon adoption, our prior period financial statements were revised by reclassifying certain liabilities associated with our 1.625% Convertible Senior Notes due December 2009 to Total stockholders’ equity

for the March 31, 2009 reporting period. For additional information concerning the impact of the adoption of this accounting standard on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, refer to Note A “Basis of Presentation” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
For additional information concerning our debt arrangements, refer to our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in our 2009 Form 10-K.
Other Matters
As of September 30, 2009, our senior unsecured notes were rated Baa3, BBB, and BBB by Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s), Standard and Poor’s (S&P) and Fitch Ratings (Fitch), respectively. In June 2009 Moody’s upgraded our rating to Baa3. In April 2009, Fitch upgraded our rating to BBB.
The outlook on these unsecured notes is stable by all three agencies. As of October 23, 2009, our ratings and outlooks remained unchanged. Peak borrowings under all debt facilities during the second quarter of fiscal 2010 totaled $1,934 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 6%.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, we entered into a brokerage arrangement with a third-party financial institution to purchase our common stock in the open market on our behalf. We acquired 2 million shares of our common stock for $50 million under this arrangement during the second quarter of fiscal 2010, $45 million of which was paid to the third-party financial institution in settlement of purchases during the quarter. As of September 30, 2009, we remained authorized to purchase an aggregate amount of up to $196 million of additional common shares under the current stock repurchase program.
We expect that existing cash, cash equivalents, the availability of borrowings under existing and renewable credit lines, and cash expected to be provided from operations will be sufficient to meet ongoing cash requirements. We expect our long-standing history of providing extended payment terms to our customers to continue.
We expect to use existing cash balances and future cash generated from operations to fund capital spending, including our continued investment in our enterprise resource planning implementation, future acquisitions and financing activities such as the repayment of our debt balances as they mature, the payment of dividends, and the potential repurchase of shares of common stock in accordance with any plans approved by our Board of Directors.
Effect of Exchange Rate Changes
There was a $156 million favorable impact to our cash balances in the first half of fiscal 2010 predominantly due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the euro, the Australian dollar, the British pound and the Brazilian real of 10%, 27%, 11% and 31%, respectively. This is compared with a $150 million unfavorable impact to our cash balances in the first half of fiscal 2009 predominantly due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Australian dollar, Brazilian real, British pound, euro and Japanese yen of 14%, 8%, 10%, 11% and 6%, respectively.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BUSINESS PRACTICES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Our estimates form the basis for making judgments about amounts and timing of revenue and expenses, the carrying values of assets and the recorded amounts of liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such estimates may change if the underlying conditions or assumptions change. Information with respect to our critical accounting policies that we believe could have the most significant effect on our reported results or require subjective or complex judgments by management is contained in our 2009 Form 10-K under Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. We believe that at September 30, 2009, there has been no material change to this information, except as follows:
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We discontinued the Year 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan effective with the close of the purchase period on June 30, 2009.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-13 (previously Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 08-1, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables). ASU 2009-13 superseded EITF No.00-21 and addresses criteria for separating the consideration in multiple-element arrangements. ASU 2009-13 will require companies to allocate the overall consideration to each deliverable by using a best estimate of the selling price of individual deliverables in the arrangement in the absence of vendor-specific objective evidence or other third-party evidence of the selling price. ASU 2009-13 will be effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 and early adoption will be permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of ASU 2009-13 on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
In September 2009, the FASB ratified ASC ASU 2009-14 (previously EITF No. 09-3, Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements). ASU 2009-14 modifies the scope of Software Revenue Recognition to exclude (a) non-software components of tangible products and (b) software components of tangible products that are sold, licensed, or leased with tangible products when the software components and non-software components of the tangible product function together to deliver the tangible product’s essential functionality. ASU 2009-14 has an effective date that is consistent with ASU 2009-13. We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of ASU 2009-14 on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
Item 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to a variety of risks, including foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and changes in the market value of our investments. In the normal course of business, we employ established policies and procedures to manage these risks including the use of derivative instruments. There have been no material changes in our foreign exchange risk management strategy or our portfolio management strategy subsequent to March 31, 2009; therefore, other aspects of the risk profile of our market risk sensitive instruments remains substantially unchanged from the description in our 2009 Form 10-K.
Item 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer

and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as disclosed in the following paragraph, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that occurred during the period covered by this quarterly report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
As previously disclosed in Item 9A of its 2009 Form 10-K, the Company began the migration of certain financial and sales processing systems to an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system in fiscal 2007 as part of its on-going project to implement ERP at the Company’s facilities worldwide. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Company expanded its ERP migration into its Europe, Middle East and Africa region. The Company will continue to monitor and test these systems as part of management’s annual evaluation of internal control over financial reporting.
