In 2008, we launched our Jetrion 4000 Full Color Digital Label printer focused on short run, on-demand, color label printing. We also manufacture the inks used in our inkjet printers. Each of our inks is customized for each of our printers to provide optimum performance on that printer. In addition, we manufacture and sell private label inks to third-party inkjet printer manufacturers. Our inks provide a renewable revenue stream generated from sales to our existing customer base as well as sales to third parties.

Rastek. To further expand our current market segment and Inkjet line of products, we acquired Raster Printers, Inc. (“Raster”) on December 2, 2008, which was re-branded as Rastek post-acquisition. Rastek develops, manufacturers, and markets Hybrid and Flatbed UV wide format graphics printers in the mid-range market sector.

Advanced Professional Print Software (“APPS”)

To provide our customers with print solutions, we have developed technology that enhances printing workflow and makes printing operations more powerful, productive and easier to manage from one centralized user interface. Most of our software solutions have been developed with the express goal of automating print processes and streamlining workflow via open, integrated and interoperable EFI products, services and solutions.

Our enterprise resource planning and collaborative supply chain software print management solutions are designed to enable printers and print buyers to improve productivity and customer service while reducing costs. Procurement applications for print buyers and print producers facilitate web-based collaboration across the print supply chain. Customers recognize that print management information systems, or PMIS, are essential to improving their business practices and profitability and we are continuing to focus on making our PMIS solutions the global industry standard. To further strengthen our APPS business, we acquired Pace Systems Group, Inc. (“Pace”) on July 28, 2008. Pace is a print management software company which provides practical PMIS and e-commerce solutions that make printing and graphic art companies more efficient and profitable. This product is scalable and caters to many types of commercial print shops.

Growth and Expansion Strategies

Our overall objective is to continue to introduce new generations of digital print controllers as well as expand and improve our offerings in inkjet, professional printing software applications, and in other new product lines related to digital printing, workflow and print management. With respect to our current products, our primary goal is to offer best of breed solutions that are interoperable and conform to open standards, which will allow customers to configure the most efficient solution for their business. Our strategy to accomplish these goals consists of four key elements: proliferate and expand product lines; develop and expand relationships with key industry participants; establish enterprise coherence and leverage industry standardization; and leverage technology and industry expertise to expand the scope of products, channels and markets. Each of these items is discussed below.

Proliferate and Expand Product Lines

We intend to continue to develop new digital print controllers that are “scalable,” meaning products that continue to meet the changing needs of the user as their business grows. Our products offer a broad range of features and functionality when connected to, or integrated with, digital color and black-and-white copiers, as well as desktop color laser printers.

We intend to continue our development of platform enhancements that advance the performance and usability of our software applications in order to provide cohesive, integrated solutions for our customers.

In 2007, we introduced the next generation of our Fiery hardware along with a number of new enhanced workflow and production management applications. These new products are designed to provide customers with optimal print engine performance, more efficient workflow, more accurate color and greater control over and visibility into their businesses. In 2008, we expanded our application software on our Fiery products to include Fiery Central, a new, modular production workflow solution designed to further optimize engine performance and ensure total color quality control in the color printing workflow for graphic arts professionals.

Our expansion of product lines includes those from our Jetrion business unit, a leading innovator of inkjet printers, inks and custom printing systems for the label and packaging industries. In 2008, we launched our Jetrion 4000 digital label printing system. This new printer produces full color, variable image labels up to 5.5 inches wide across a broad array of substrates.

In 2007, we introduced a new VUTEk super-wide UV curing printer. The new 3.2 meter QS3200r provides the production speed, quality and extended flexible media capabilities necessary to better enable our customers to meet and profit from the growing needs of their customers. The QS3200r caters to sign shops, screen printers, and print providers looking to complement or replace existing solvent or UV output. In 2008, we continued to widen EFI’s offering in the market with the introduction of the new Vutek DS8300 inkjet printer at the 2008 DRUPA trade show in Germany, and is expected to be launched in 2009. We also continue to explore acquisition possibilities as a way to expand our product lineup and customer base. Although there can be no assurance that acquisitions will be successful, acquisitions have allowed us to broaden our product lines.

Develop and Expand Relationships with Key Industry Participants

Our customer relationships are one of our most important assets. We have established relationships with leading printer and copier industry companies, including Canon, Fuji Xerox, Konica Minolta, OKI Data, Ricoh, Sharp, Toshiba and Xerox, which we collectively refer to as our OEM customers.

Our relationships with our OEM customers are based upon business relationships we have established over time. However, our agreements with such OEM customers generally do not require them to make any future purchases from us, and our OEM customers are generally free to purchase products from our competitors or build their own and cease purchasing our products at any time, for any reason or no reason.

Our Inkjet products and our Advanced Professional Print Software are sold both direct and via distribution arrangements to all sizes of print providers.

Additionally, we have established relationships with many leading distribution companies in the office, graphic arts and commercial print industries such as IKON, Fujifilm Graphic Systems, Pitman, Nazdar and 3M. We seek to establish new relationships in pursuit of the goal of offering our controller line of products as well as our software technology for optimizing the management and creation of documents in a variety of print environments.

We also have established relationships with many of the leading print providers globally, such as R.R. Donnelley, Fedex Kinkos, Quebecor, and Staples. These direct sales relationships, along with dealer arrangements, are important for our understanding of the end markets for our products and serve as a source of future product development ideas. In many cases our products are customized for the needs of large customers yet maintain the common intuitive interfaces that EFI is known for around the world.

Establish Enterprise Coherence and Leverage Industry Standardization

In our development of new products and platforms, we seek to establish coherence across our entire product line by designing products that provide a consistent “look and feel” to the end-user. We believe cross-product coherence can create higher productivity levels as a result of shortened learning curves. Additionally, we believe the integrated coherence that end-users can achieve using EFI products for all of their digital printing and imaging needs leads to a lower total cost of ownership. We also advocate open architecture utilizing industry-established standards to provide inter-operability across a range of digital printing devices and software applications, ultimately providing end-users more choice and flexibility in their selection of products. For example in 2007, we introduced integration between our web-based Digital StoreFront application, our Monarch OA (formerly Hagen) print MIS application, and our Fiery XF Production Color RIP including integration to either our Fiery or our VUTEk product line, leveraging the industry standard Job Definition Format (“JDF”). In 2008, we introduced a similar integration between Pace and our APPS products.

Leverage Technology and Industry Expertise to Expand the Scope of Products, Channels and Markets

We have assembled, organically and through acquisitions, an experienced team of technical support and sales and marketing personnel with backgrounds in color reproduction, digital pre-press, image processing, management

Table of Contents

information systems, networking and software and hardware engineering as well as market knowledge of enterprise printing, graphic arts and commercial printing. By applying our expertise in these areas, we expect to continue to expand the scope and sophistication of our products and gain access to new markets and channels of distribution.

Significant Relationships

We have established and continue to build and expand relationships with our OEMs and distributors of digital printing technology in order to benefit from their products, distribution channels and marketing resources. Our customers include domestic and international manufacturers, distributors and sellers of color and black-and-white digital copiers, wide-format printers and desktop color printers. We work closely with our OEM customers with the aim of developing solutions that incorporate leading technology, and that work optimally in conjunction with such companies’ products. The top revenue-generating OEMs or distributors, in alphabetical order, that we sold products to in 2008 were Canon, Fuji Xerox, IKON Office Solutions, Konica Minolta, OKI Data, Ricoh, Toshiba, and Xerox. Together, sales to Canon and Xerox accounted for approximately 29% of our 2008 revenue, with sales to each of these two customers accounting for more than 10% of our revenue. Because sales of our printer and copier-related products constitute a significant portion of our controller revenues and there are a limited number of OEMs producing copiers and printers in sufficient volume to be attractive customers for us, we expect that we will continue to depend on a relatively small number of OEM customers for a significant portion of our revenues in future periods. Accordingly, if we lose or experience reduced sales to an important OEM, we will have difficulty replacing the revenue traditionally generated from such OEM with sales to new or existing OEMs and our revenues may decline.

We customarily enter into development and distribution agreements with our OEM customers. These agreements can be terminated under a range of circumstances and often upon relatively short notice. The circumstances under which an agreement can be terminated vary from agreement to agreement and there can be no assurance that our OEM customers will continue to purchase products from us in the future, despite such agreements. Furthermore, our agreements with our OEM customers generally do not commit such customers to make future purchases from us and they could decline to purchase products from us in the future and could purchase products from our competitors, or build the products themselves. We recognize the importance of, and work hard to maintain, our relationships with our customers. However, our relationships with our customers are affected by a number of factors including, among others: competition from other suppliers, competition from internal development efforts by the OEMs themselves and changes in general economic, competitive or market conditions such as changes in demand for our or the OEM’s products, or fluctuations in currency exchange rates. There can be no assurance that we will continue to maintain or build the relationships we have developed to date. See Item 1A—We face competition from other suppliers as well as our own OEM customers and if we are not able to compete successfully our business may be harmed.

We have a continuing relationship pursuant to a license agreement with Adobe Systems, Inc. (“Adobe”) and license PostScript® software from Adobe for use in many of our controller solutions. This relationship is important because each of our controller solutions requires page description language software such as that provided by Adobe in order to operate. Adobe’s PostScript® software is widely used to manage the geometry, shape and typography of hard copy documents and Adobe is a leader in providing page description software. Although to date we have successfully obtained licenses to use Adobe’s PostScript® software when required, Adobe is not required to, and we cannot be certain that Adobe will, grant future licenses to Adobe PostScript® software on reasonable terms, in a timely manner, or at all. In addition, in order to obtain licenses from Adobe, Adobe requires that we obtain from them quality assurance approvals for our products that use Adobe software. If Adobe does not grant us such licenses or approvals, if the Adobe licenses are terminated, or if our relationship with Adobe is otherwise materially impaired, we would likely be unable to sell products that incorporate Adobe PostScript® software. If that occurred, we would have to license, acquire, develop or reestablish our own competing software as a viable alternative for Adobe Postscript® and our financial condition and results of operations could be significantly harmed for a period of time.

Our inkjet printers are constructed with inkjet print heads which are manufactured by a limited number of suppliers. If we were to experience difficulty obtaining print heads, our production of inkjet printers would be limited and our revenues would be harmed. We manufacture inks for use in our printers and rely upon a limited number of suppliers for certain pigments used in our inks. Our ink sales would decline significantly if we were unable to obtain the pigments as needed. See Item 1A—We depend upon a limited group of suppliers for key components in our products. The loss of any of these suppliers, the inability of any of these suppliers to meet our requirements, or the delays or shortages of supply of these components could adversely affect our business.

Human Resources

As of December 31, 2008, we employed 2,021 full time employees. Approximately 515 were in sales and marketing, 242 were in general and administrative, 370 were in manufacturing and 894 were in research and development. Of the total number of employees, we had approximately 1,453 employees located in the Americas (primarily the United States) and 568 employees located in offices outside of the Americas.

Distribution and Marketing

Our primary distribution method for our controller line of products is to sell them to our OEMs. Our OEMs in turn sell these products to OEM-affiliated and independent distributors/dealers/resellers and end-users for use with the OEM’s copiers or printers as part of an integrated printing system. See Item 1A—We rely on sales to a relatively small number of OEM customers and the loss of any of these OEM customers could substantially decrease our revenues.

Our print management information systems are primarily sold directly to the end-user by our own sales force. To distribute our VUTEk printers and ink, we utilize a direct sales force in North America and Europe and principally distributors for the rest of our global distribution. Any interruption of the distribution methods could negatively impact us in the future.

Our primary distribution method for our MicroPress controllers, our EFI proofing systems and our EFI workflow software products is to utilize a mix of distributors and our own sales force. We sell directly to our authorized distributors, dealers, and resellers who in turn sell the solutions to end-users either in a stand alone form or bundled with other solutions they offer. Primary customers with whom we have established distribution agreements include Enovation, Fujifilm Graphic Systems, Pitman and other sales companies. There can be no assurance that we will continue to successfully distribute our products through these channels.

We promote all of our products through public relations, direct mail, advertising, promotional material, trade shows and ongoing customer communication programs. The majority of the sales leads for inkjet printer sales are generated from tradeshows and any interruption in our tradeshow participation could materially impact our revenue and profitability.

Research and Development

Research and development costs for 2008 were $140.4 million. As of December 31, 2008, 894 of our 2,021 full-time employees were involved in research and development. We believe that development of new products and enhancement of existing products are essential to our continued success, and management intends to continue to devote substantial resources to research and new product development. We expect to make significant expenditures to support our research and development programs for the foreseeable future.

We are developing products to support additional color and black-and-white printing devices including desktop printers, high-end color copiers, digital black-and-white copiers and multifunctional devices. We are also developing new software applications designed to maximize workflow efficiencies and to meet the needs of the graphic arts and commercial print professional, including proofing solutions and print management information systems solutions. We also expect to continue to develop new platforms of inkjet print technologies in order to meet the needs of existing and future markets. We have research and development sites in nine U.S. locations, as

We utilize sub-contractors to manufacture our controller line of products. These sub-contractors work closely with us to promote low costs and high quality in the manufacture of our products. Sub-contractors purchase components needed for our products from third parties. We are completely dependent on the ability of our sub-contractors to produce products sold by us and although we supervise our sub-contractors, there can be no assurance that such sub-contractors will perform efficiently or effectively. In 2008, a significant amount of our controller line of products was manufactured at a single sub-contractor, Celestica Inc. We are transferring to a new sub-conductor in 2009: Bell Microproducts. Should Celestica or Bell Microproducts experience any inability or unwillingness to manufacture or deliver product from this location, our business, financial condition and operations could be harmed. Since we do not maintain long-term agreements with our sub-contractors, any of our sub-contractors could enter into agreements with our competitors that might restrict or prohibit such sub-contractors from manufacturing our products or could otherwise lead to an inability of such sub-contractor from filling our orders in a timely manner. See Item 1A—We are dependent on a limited number of subcontractors, with whom we do not have long-term contracts, to manufacture and deliver products to our customers and the loss of any of these subcontractors could adversely affect our business.

Our VUTEk printers and ink are manufactured at our Meredith, New Hampshire facility. Meredith is not located in a major metropolitan area, and we have encountered difficulties in hiring and retaining adequate skilled labor and management. Most of the components used in the manufacturing of the printers and the inks are available from multiple suppliers, except for the inkjet print heads and the pigments for our inks. Although typically in low volumes, many key components are sourced from single vendors. If we were unable to obtain the print heads currently used, we would be required to redesign our printers to use different print heads. If we were to change pigments, we would be required to reformulate and test the inks. In two of our locations, we use hazardous materials to formulate solvent-based inks. The storage, use and disposal of those materials must meet the requirements of various environmental regulations. See Item 1A—If we are not able to hire and retain skilled employees, we may not be able to develop products or meet demand for our products in a timely fashion; and We depend upon a limited group of suppliers for key components in our product. The loss of any of these suppliers, the inability of any of these suppliers to meet our requirements, or the delays or shortages of supply of these components could adversely affect our business.

A significant number of the components necessary for the manufacture of our controller line of products are obtained from a sole supplier or a limited group of suppliers. These include processors from Intel and other related semiconductor components. We depend largely on the following sole and limited source suppliers for our components and manufacturing services:

Intel    Central processing units, or CPUs; chip sets
Toshiba    Application-specific integrated circuits (“ASIC”)
Altera    ASIC

We do not maintain long-term agreements with any of our suppliers of components and primarily conduct our business with such suppliers solely on a purchase order basis. If any of our sole or limited source suppliers were unwilling or unable to supply us with the components for which we rely on them, we may be unable to continue manufacturing our products utilizing such components.

The absence of agreements with most of our suppliers also subjects us to fluctuations in pricing, a factor we believe is partially offset by the fact that our suppliers benefit from selling as many components to us as possible. Many of our components are similar to those used in personal computers, and the demand and price fluctuations of personal computer components could affect our component costs. Because the purchase of key components involves long lead times, in the event of unanticipated volatility in demand for our products, we may be unable to manufacture certain products in a quantity sufficient to meet end user demand, or we may hold excess quantities of inventory. We maintain an inventory of components for which we are dependent upon sole or limited source suppliers and of components with prices that fluctuate significantly. We cannot ensure that at any given time we will have sufficient inventory to enable us to meet demand for our products, which would harm our financial results. As a result of our acquisition of the Inkjet businesses, our inventory has increased; however, our total inventory still represents less than 7.5% of our total assets as of December 31, 2008. See Item 1A—We depend upon a limited group of suppliers for key components in our products. The loss of any of these suppliers, the inability of any of these suppliers to meet our requirements, or the delays or shortages of supply of these components could adversely affect our business.

Competition

Competition in our markets is intense and involves rapidly changing technologies and frequent new product introductions. To maintain and improve our competitive position, we must continue to develop and introduce on a timely and cost-effective basis new products and features that keep pace with the evolving needs of our customers. The principal competitive factors affecting the markets for our controller solutions include, among others, customer service and support, product reputation, quality, performance, price and product features such as functionality, scalability, ability to interface with OEM products and ease of use. We believe we have generally been able to compete effectively in the past against product offerings of our competitors on the basis of such factors. However, there can be no assurance that we will continue to be able to compete effectively in the future based on these or any other competitive factors.

Our primary competitors for third-party stand-alone color controllers are our OEM customers. Our OEM customers are also the principal competitors for the embedded and design-licensed solutions. Our market position vis-à-vis internally-developed controllers is small; however, we are the largest third party controller vendor. We believe that our advantages include our continuously advancing technology, time-to-market, brand recognition, end-user loyalty, sizable installed base, number of products supported, price driven by lower developmental costs and market knowledge. We intend to continue to develop new digital print controllers with capabilities that continue to meet the changing needs of our OEM customers’ product development roadmaps. A significant disadvantage is our lack of control of the distribution channels and direct connections with our end-users. We do, however, provide a variety of features as well as a unique “look and feel” to our OEMs’ products to differentiate our customers’ products from those of their competitors.

The VUTEk line of super-wide inkjet printers competes with printers produced by Durst, Gandinnovation, Hewlett-Packard and Inca throughout most of the world. There are Chinese and Korean printer manufacturers in the marketplace, but their products are typically sold in their domestic markets and are not perceived as alternatives in most other markets. Although we recommend that our inks be used in the VUTEk printers, users can purchase solvent-based inks from other ink manufacturers. The third-party inks are typically priced at a lower price than our proprietary inks. However, these third-party inks may not provide the same quality. In addition, the use of third-party inks with our printer products may void the ink delivery system warranty on the printer. We believe that our broad product line and leading technology provide a competitive advantage.

Table of Contents

Our APPS category, which includes our workflow, proofing, print management information systems and web-based order entry and order management systems, faces competition from software application vendors that specifically target the printing industry. These vendors are typically small, privately-owned companies. We also face competition from larger vendors that currently offer or are seeking to develop printer-focused enterprise resource planning products. We believe the principal competitive factor affecting our markets is the market rates for new printing technology.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to advance our technology and products or to compete effectively against other companies’ product offerings and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect upon our business, operating results and financial condition.

Sale of Land and Building

On January 29, 2009, we sold a portion of our Foster City campus to Gilead Sciences, Inc. (“Gilead”) for a total price of $137.5 million, subject to an escrow holdback of $15.5 million. The property sold included approximately thirty acres of land, which is entitled for development, the office building at 301 Velocity Way, Foster City, California, consisting of approximately 163,000 square feet and certain other assets related to the property. We retain ownership of the remaining approximately five acres of land and remain obligated under the synthetic lease with respect to the office building at 303 Velocity Way, Foster City, California, at which the Company’s headquarters is located. As more fully disclosed in Note 8—Commitments and Contingencies, both buildings were subject to synthetic lease agreements as of December 31, 2008.

As a result of the sale to Gilead, the carrying value of assets held for sale of $55.4 million as of December 31, 2008 included land, building, other improvements, and restricted cash related to the 301 Velocity Way facility, subject to an escrow holdback of $15.5 million. The escrow period expires January 2010.

Goodwill and Long-Lived Asset Impairment

We perform our annual impairment analysis of goodwill in the third quarter of each year according to the provisions of SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”). The provision requires that we perform a two-step impairment test on goodwill. In the first step, we compare the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and we are not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then we must perform the second step of the impairment testing to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is calculated by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets of the reporting unit, excluding goodwill, from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in the first step. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference.

We performed our annual valuation analysis of goodwill on September 30, 2008 in accordance with SFAS142 as stated above. The goodwill valuation analysis was performed based on our respective reporting units—Controller, Inkjet, and Advanced Professional Print Software. Our reporting units are consistent with our product categories identified in Note 15—Information Concerning Business Segments and Major Customers of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Our product categories meet the definition of a reporting unit one level below an operating segment in accordance with SFAS 142 as each product category constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available and reviewed by segment management.

We determined the fair value of the Inkjet reporting unit based on a weighting of the market and income approaches. The fair value of the Controller and APPS reporting units was determined based on the market approach. Under the market approach, we estimated the fair value based on market multiples of revenues or earnings. Under the income approach, we measured fair value of the reporting units based on a projected cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management which is commensurate with the risk inherent

Table of Contents

in our current business model. Based on our valuation results, we had determined that the fair values of our reporting units continued to exceed their carrying values. Therefore, management determined that no goodwill impairment charge was required as of September 30, 2008.

We assess the impairment of identifiable intangibles and long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable or that the life of the asset may need to be revised. Factors we consider important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

 

   

significant negative industry or economic trends;

 

   

significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period;

 

   

our market capitalization relative to net book value; and

 

   

significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business.

When we determine that the carrying value of intangibles or long-lived assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, we measure the potential impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. Our annual review of goodwill performed in the third quarter of 2008 indicated that there was no impairment of goodwill. We performed our annual valuation analysis of goodwill on September 30, 2008 in accordance with SFAS142 as stated above.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, our market capitalization declined significantly as a result of declining worldwide economic conditions caused by the tightening of global credit markets. Based on a combination of factors including the recent economic environment, the resulting erosion in our market capitalization, and the lowering of our 2009 revenue outlook subsequent to the third quarter of 2008, we performed an interim impairment analysis during the fourth quarter of 2008.

Based on the internal market-based valuation that we performed, the fair value of the Controller and APPS product categories significantly exceeded their carrying value as of December 31, 2008. Consequently, it was not considered necessary to obtain a third party valuation of these reporting units. A third party interim valuation was obtained with respect to the Inkjet product category, which was equally weighted between the income and market approach.

Based on the outcome of the interim impairment analysis, we concluded that an impairment had occurred relating to the Inkjet product category resulting in a non-cash impairment charge of $111.9 million during the fourth quarter of 2008 related to both goodwill and other long-lived assets. There were no impairments of goodwill, intangible assets, or other long-lived assets in 2007 and 2006.

Solely for purposes of establishing inputs for the fair value calculations described above related to goodwill impairment testing, we made the following assumptions:

 

   

the current economic downturn will continue through fiscal year 2010,

 

   

the economic downturn is partially mitigated by new product introductions in 2010,

 

   

followed by a recovery period between 2011 and 2013, and

 

   

long-term industry growth past 2013.

Our discounted cash flow projections for the Inkjet reporting unit were based on five-year financial forecasts. The five-year forecasts were based on annual financial forecasts developed internally by management for use in managing our business and through discussions with the independent valuation firm engaged by us. The significant assumptions of these five-year forecasts included annual revenue growth rates ranging from (11.0%) to 12% for the Inkjet reporting unit. The future cash flows were discounted to present value using a mid-year convention and a discount rate of 16%. Terminal values were calculated using the Gordon growth methodology with a long-term growth rate of 4.5%. The sum of the fair values of the Controllers, APPS, and Inkjet reporting

units was reconciled to our current market capitalization (based on our stock price) plus an estimated control premium. The significant assumptions used in determining fair values of the reporting units using comparable company market values include the determination of appropriate market comparables, the estimated multiples of revenue, EBIT, and EBITDA that a willing buyer is likely to pay, and the estimated control premium a willing buyer is likely to pay.

Given the current economic environment and the uncertainties regarding the impact on our business, there can be no assurance that our estimates and assumptions regarding the duration of the ongoing economic downturn, or the period or strength of recovery, made for purposes of our goodwill impairment testing during the three months ended December 31, 2008 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding forecasted revenue or gross margin rates are not achieved, we may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods relating to any of our reporting units, whether in connection with the next annual impairment testing in the third quarter of 2009 or prior to that, if any such change constitutes a triggering event outside of the quarter from when the annual goodwill impairment test is performed. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

Intellectual Property Rights

We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, non-disclosure agreements and other contractual provisions to establish, maintain and protect our intellectual property rights. Although we believe that our intellectual property rights are important to our business, no single patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret is solely responsible for the development and manufacturing of our products.

We are currently pursuing patent applications in the United States and in foreign jurisdictions to protect various inventions. Over time, we have accumulated a portfolio of issued patents in the U.S. and worldwide. We also own or have rights to the copyrights to the software code in our products, as well as rights to the trademarks under which our products are marketed. We have also registered certain trademarks in the United States and in foreign jurisdictions, and will continue to evaluate the registration of additional trademarks as appropriate.

In addition, certain of our products include intellectual property that we license from our partners. We also have granted and may continue to grant licenses under our intellectual property, when and as we may deem appropriate.

For a discussion of risks relating to our intellectual property, see Item 1A—We may be unable to adequately protect our proprietary information and may incur expenses to defend our proprietary information.

Financial Information about Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales

See Note 15—Information Concerning Business Segments and Major Customers of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. See also Item 1A—We face risks from our international operations and We face risks from currency fluctuations.

Item 1A: Risk Factors

We rely on sales to a relatively small number of OEM customers and the loss of any of these OEM customers could substantially decrease our revenues.

A significant portion of our revenues are and have been generated by sales of our printer and copier related products to a relatively small number of OEMs. For example, Canon and Xerox each contributed over 10% of our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008 and together accounted for approximately 29% of those revenues during the same period. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, Canon and Xerox each contributed over 10% of our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007 and together accounted for approximately 31% of those revenues for the year. Because sales of our printer and copier-related products

 

12


Table of Contents

constitute a significant portion of our revenues and there is a limited number of OEMs producing copiers and printers in sufficient volume to be attractive customers for us, we expect that we will continue to depend on a relatively small number of OEM customers for a significant portion of our controller revenues in future periods.

In addition, our OEM customers have developed, and may continue to develop, their own controller products, which may compete directly with our products, which may adversely affect our revenues. Accordingly, if we lose or experience reduced sales to an important OEM customer, we will have difficulty replacing the revenue previously generated from such customers with sales to new or existing OEM customers and our controller revenue will likely decline significantly.

The market for our super-wide-format printers is very competitive.

The printing equipment industry is extremely competitive. Our VUTEk products compete against several companies that market digital printing systems based on electrostatic, drop-on-demand and continuous drop-on-demand inkjet, airbrush and other technologies and printers utilizing solvent and UV curable ink. Two large competitors, NUR and Scitex Vision, were acquired by Hewlett Packard (“HP”) and another large competitor, Inca, was acquired by Dai Nippon Screen (“Screen”). Both HP and Screen have greater resources to develop new products and technologies and market those products, as well as acquire or develop critical components at lower costs, which would provide a competitive advantage. They could also exert downward pressure on product pricing to gain market share.

We have also witnessed the recent growth of local Chinese and Korean markets where local competitors are developing, manufacturing and selling inexpensive printers, mainly to the local Chinese and Korean markets. These Chinese and Korean manufacturers have also begun penetrating the international market and have partnered with other super-wide format printer manufacturers. Our ability to compete depends on factors both within and outside of our control, including the price, performance and acceptance of our current printers and any products we develop in the future.

We also face competition from existing conventional wide format and super-wide format printing methods, including screen printing and offset printing. Our competitors could develop new products, with existing or new technology, that could be more competitive in our market than our printers. We cannot assure you that we can compete effectively with any such products.

We face strong competition in the market for printing supplies such as ink.

We compete with independent manufacturers in the ink market. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to remain the exclusive or even principal ink supplier for our printers. The loss of ink sales to our installed base of printers could adversely impact our revenues and gross margins.

We could also experience an overall reduction in price within the ink markets, which would also adversely affect our gross margins. Solvent inks are relatively easy to replicate and additional manufacturers could increase pricing competition or divert customers away from us.

We do not typically have long term purchase contracts with our OEM customers and our OEM customers have in the past and could at any time in the future, reduce or cease purchasing products from us, harming our operating results and business.

With the exception of certain minimum purchase obligations, we typically do not have long-term volume purchase contracts with our OEM customers, including Canon, Xerox and Konica Minolta, and they are not obligated to purchase products from us. Accordingly, our customers could at any time reduce their purchases from us or cease purchasing our products altogether. In the past, some of our OEM customers have elected to develop products on their own, rather than rely, solely or partially, on our products and we expect that customers will continue to make such elections in the future.

Table of Contents

In addition, because our OEM customers incorporate our products into products they manufacture and sell, any decline in demand for copiers or laser printers and any other negative developments affecting our major customers or the computer industry in general, including reduced demand for the products sold by our OEM customers, would likely harm our results of operations. For example, certain customers have in the past experienced serious financial difficulties which led to a decline in sales of our products to these customers. If any significant customers should face such difficulties in the future, our operating results could be harmed through, among other things, decreased sales volumes and write-offs of accounts receivables and inventory related to products we have manufactured for these customers’ products.

In addition, a significant portion of our operating expenses are fixed in advance based on projected sales levels and margins, sales forecasts from our OEM customers and product development programs. A substantial portion of our backlog is scheduled for delivery within 90 days or less and our customers may cancel orders and change volume levels or delivery times for product they have ordered from us without penalty. Accordingly, if sales to our OEM customers are below expectations in any given quarter, the adverse impact of the shortfall in revenues on operating results may be, and has been in the past, increased by our inability to adjust spending in the short term to compensate for this shortfall.

We rely on our OEM customers to develop and sell products incorporating our controller technologies and if they fail to successfully develop and sell these products, or curtail or cease the use of our technologies in their products, our business will be harmed.

We rely upon our OEM customers to develop new products, applications and product enhancements utilizing our controller technologies in a timely and cost-effective manner. Our continued success in the controller industry depends upon the ability of these OEM customers to utilize our technologies while meeting changing end-user customer needs and responding to emerging industry standards and other technological changes. However, we cannot provide assurance that our OEM customers will effectively meet these challenges. These OEM customers are generally not obligated to purchase products from us and we cannot provide assurance that they will continue to carry our products. For example, our OEM customers have incorporated into their products the technologies of other companies or internally developed technologies in addition to, or instead of, our technologies and will likely continue to do so in the future. If our OEM customers do not effectively and successfully market products containing our technologies, our revenue will likely be materially and adversely affected.

Our OEM customers work closely with us to develop products that are specific to each OEM customer’s copiers and printers. Many of the products and technologies we are developing require that we coordinate development, quality testing, marketing and other tasks with our OEM customers. We cannot control our OEM customers’ development efforts or the timing of these efforts and coordinating with our OEM customers may cause delays in our own product development efforts that are outside of our control. If our OEM customers delay the release of their products, our revenue and results of operations may be adversely affected. In addition, our revenue and results of operations may be adversely affected if we cannot meet our OEM customers’ product needs for their specific copiers and printers, as well as successfully manage the additional engineering and support effort and other risks associated with such a wide range of products.

Ongoing economic uncertainty has had and may continue to have a negative effect on our business.

The revenue and profitability of our business depends significantly on the overall demand for information technology products that enable printing of digital data, which in turn depends on a variety of macro- and micro-economic conditions. In addition, our revenue growth and profitability in our Inkjet business depends on demand and spending for advertising and marketing products and programs, which also depends on a variety of macro- and micro-economic conditions.

Uncertainty about current global economic conditions poses a risk as our customers may delay purchases of our products in response to tighter credit, negative financial news and/or declines in income or asset values. The current financial turmoil affecting the banking system and financial markets and the possibility that financial

Table of Contents

institutions may consolidate or go out of business have resulted in a tightening in the credit markets, a low level of liquidity in many financial markets, and extreme volatility in fixed income, credit, currency and equity markets. There could be a number of follow-on effects from the credit crisis on our business, including insolvency of key suppliers resulting in product delays; inability of customers and distributors to obtain credit to finance purchases of our products and/or customer and distributor insolvencies; and other financial institutions negatively impacting the Company’s treasury operations. Our financial performance could also vary materially from expectations depending on gains or losses realized on the sale or exchange of financial instruments or cash equivalents; impairment charges on our assets; related to equity and other investments and; interest rates. The current volatility in the financial markets and overall economic uncertainty increases the risk that the actual amounts realized in the future on our financial instruments could differ significantly from the fair values currently assigned to them.

Uncertainty about current global economic conditions together with delays or reductions in information technology spending could cause a decline in demand for our products and services and consequently harm our business, operating results, financial condition, prospects and continue to increase the volatility of our stock price.

Our operating results may fluctuate based upon many factors, which could adversely affect our stock price.

Stock prices of high technology companies such as ours tend to be volatile as a result of various factors, including variations in operating results and, consequently, fluctuations in our operating results could adversely affect our stock price. Factors that have caused our operating results and stock price to fluctuate in the past and that may cause future fluctuations include:

 

   

varying demand for our products, due to seasonality, OEM customer product development and marketing efforts, OEM customer financial and operational condition, OEM inventory management practices and general economic conditions;

 

   

shifts in customer demand to lower cost products;

 

   

success and timing of new product introductions by us and our OEM customers and the performance of our products generally;

 

   

success and timing of new inkjet product introductions;

 

   

volatility in foreign exchange rates, changes in interest rates and or financing credit to consumers of digital copiers and printers;

 

   

price reductions by us and our competitors, which may be exacerbated by competitive pressures caused by economic conditions generally;

 

   

substitution of third-party inks for our own ink products by users of our super-wide format inkjet printers;

 

   

delay, cancellation or rescheduling of orders or projects;

 

   

delays or shortages of supply of our key components, including without limitation inkjet print heads, and inability of our suppliers to meet our requirements;

 

   

availability of key components and licenses, including possible delays in deliveries from suppliers, the performance of third-party manufacturers and the status of our relationships with our key suppliers;

 

   

potential excess or shortage of employees and location of research and development centers;

 

   

changes in our product mix such as shifts from higher revenue or gross margin products to lower revenue or gross margin products such as our inkjet products;

 

   

costs associated with complying with any applicable governmental regulations;

 

   

cost associated with possible SEC and regulatory actions regarding our historical stock option granting practices and remedial measures with respect to our historical stock option granting practices;

 

   

acquisitions and integration of new businesses;

 

15


Table of Contents
   

costs related to our entry into new markets, such as commercial printing and office equipment service automation;

 

   

general economic conditions, such as the current economic uncertainty;

 

   

commencement of litigation or adverse results in pending litigation; and

 

   

other risks described herein.

We face competition from other suppliers as well as our own OEM customers and if we are not able to compete successfully our business may be harmed.

The digital printing marketplace is highly competitive and is characterized by rapid technological changes. We compete against a number of other suppliers of imaging products and technologies, including our OEM customers themselves. Although we attempt to develop and support innovative products that end-users demand, products or technologies developed by competing suppliers, including our own OEM customers, could render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive.

While many of our OEM customers incorporate our technologies into their end products on an exclusive basis, we do not have any formal agreements that prevent these OEM customers from offering alternative products that do not incorporate our technologies. If, as has occurred in the past, an OEM customer offers products incorporating technology from alternative suppliers instead of, or in addition to, products incorporating our technologies, our market share could decrease, which would likely reduce our revenue and adversely affect our financial results.

In addition, many OEMs in the printer and copier industry, including most of our OEM customers, internally develop and sell products that compete directly with our current products. These OEMs have significant investments in their existing solutions and have substantial resources that may enable them to develop or improve, more quickly than us, technologies similar to ours that are compatible with their own products. Our OEM customers have in the past marketed, and likely will continue in the future to market, their own internal technologies and solutions in addition to ours, even when their technologies and solutions are less advanced, have lower performance or cost more than our products. Given the significant financial, marketing and other resources of our larger OEM customers and other significant OEMs in the imaging industry who are not our customers, we may not be able to successfully compete against these OEMs selling similar products that they develop internally. If we cannot compete successfully against the OEMs’ internally developed products, we will lose sales and market share in those areas where the OEMs choose to compete and our business will be harmed.

Price reductions for all of our products may affect our revenues in the future.

We have made and may in the future make price reductions for our products in order to drive demand and remain competitive. Depending upon the price-elasticity of demand for our products, the pricing and quality of competitive products and other economic and competitive conditions, such price reductions may have an adverse impact on our revenues and profits. If we are not able to compensate for lower gross margins that may result from price reductions with an increased volume of sales, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

Entry into new markets or distribution channels could result in higher operating expenses that may not be offset by increased revenue.

We continue to explore opportunities to develop or acquire product lines different from our current controllers, such as print management software, document scanning solutions and inkjet printers. We expect to continue to invest funds to develop new distribution and marketing channels for these and additional new products and services, which will increase our operating expenses.

We do not know if we will be successful in developing these channels or whether the market will accept any of our new products or services or if we will generate sufficient revenues from these activities to offset the

 

16


Table of Contents

additional operating expenses we incur. In addition, even if we are able to introduce new products or services, if customers do not accept these new products or services or if we are not able to price such products or services competitively, our operating results will likely suffer.

We license software used in most of our products from Adobe Systems Incorporated and the loss of this license would prevent us from shipping these products.

Many of our current products include software that we must license from Adobe. Specifically, we are required to obtain separate licenses from Adobe for the right to use Adobe PostScript® software in each type of copier or printer used with a Fiery Controller. Although to date we have successfully obtained licenses to use Adobe’s PostScript® software when required, Adobe is not required to, and we cannot be certain that Adobe will, grant future licenses to Adobe PostScript® software on reasonable terms, in a timely manner, or at all. In addition, in order to obtain licenses from Adobe, Adobe requires that we obtain from them quality assurance approvals for our products that use Adobe software. Although to date we have successfully obtained such quality assurances from Adobe, we cannot be certain Adobe will grant us such approvals in the future. If Adobe does not grant us such licenses or approvals, if the Adobe licenses are terminated, or if our relationship with Adobe is otherwise materially impaired, we would likely be unable to sell products that incorporate Adobe PostScript® software and our financial condition and results of operations would be significantly harmed.

We depend upon a limited group of suppliers for key components in our products. The loss of any of these suppliers, the inability of any of these suppliers to meet our requirements, or the delays or shortages of supply of these components could adversely affect our business.

Certain components necessary for the manufacture of our products are obtained from a sole supplier or a limited group of suppliers. These include processors from Intel and other related semiconductor components and inkjet print heads for our super-wide format printers. We do not maintain long-term agreements with any of our component suppliers and conduct our business with such suppliers solely on a purchase order basis. If we are unable to continue to procure these sole-sourced components from our current suppliers in the required quantities, we will have to qualify other sources, if possible, or design our products so that they no longer require these components.

In addition, these suppliers may be concentrated within similar industries or geographic locations, which could potentially exacerbate these risks. We cannot provide assurance that other sources of these components exist or will be willing to supply us on reasonable terms or at all, or that we will be able to design around these components. Therefore any unavailability, delays or shortages of supply of these components or any inability of our suppliers to meet our requirements could harm our business. Because the purchase of certain key components involves long lead times, in the event of unanticipated volatility in demand for our products, we have been in the past and may in the future be unable to manufacture certain products in a quantity sufficient to meet demand. Further, as has occurred in the past, in the event that anticipated demand does not materialize, we may hold excess quantities of inventory that could become obsolete. In order to meet projected demand, we maintain an inventory of components for which we are dependent upon sole or limited source suppliers and components with prices that fluctuate significantly. As a result, we are subject to a risk of inventory obsolescence, which could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

Additionally, the market prices and availability of certain components, particularly memory and Intel-designed components, which collectively represent a substantial portion of the total manufactured cost of our products, have fluctuated significantly in the past. Such fluctuations in the future could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition including a reduction in gross margins.

We are dependent on a limited number of subcontractors, with whom we do not have long-term contracts, to manufacture and deliver products to our customers and the loss of any of these subcontractors could adversely affect our business.

We subcontract with other companies to manufacture our products and we do not have long-term agreements with these subcontractors. We rely on the ability of our subcontractors to produce products to be sold to our customers

and while we closely monitor our subcontractors’ performance we cannot assure you that such subcontractors will continue to manufacture our products in a timely and effective manner. In the past a weakened economy led to the dissolution, bankruptcy or consolidation of some of the subcontractors who are able to manufacture our products, decreasing the available number of subcontractors. If the available number of subcontractors were to again decrease, it is possible that we would not be able to secure appropriate subcontractors to fulfill our demand in a timely manner or at all, particularly if demand for our products increases.

The existence of fewer subcontractors may also reduce our negotiating leverage potentially resulting in higher product costs. Difficulties experienced by our subcontractors, including financial problems and the inability to make or ship our products or fix quality assurance problems, could harm our business, operating results and financial condition. If we decide to change subcontractors, we could experience delays in finding, qualifying and commencing business with new subcontractors which would result in both delay in delivery of our products and also potentially the cancellation of orders for our products.

In 2008, a high concentration of our Fiery controllers is manufactured at a single subcontractor location, Celestica in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. We are transferring to a new sub-contractor in 2009: Bell Microproducts. Should Celestica or Bell Microproducts experience any inability to, or refuse to, manufacture or deliver product from this location our business, financial condition and operations could be harmed. Since we do not maintain long-term agreements with our subcontractors, any of our subcontractors could enter into agreements with our competitors that might restrict or prohibit such subcontractors from manufacturing our products or could otherwise lead to an inability of such subcontractors from filling our orders in a timely manner. In such event, we may not be able to find suitable replacement subcontractors and our business, financial condition and operations would likely be harmed.

We may face increased risk of inventory obsolescence related to our super-wide format inkjet printers and ink.

We procure raw materials and build our super-wide printers and ink products based on our sales forecasts. If we do not accurately forecast demand for our products we may end up with excess inventory, or we may lose sales because we do not have the correct products available for sale. If we have excess printers or other products we may have to lower prices to stimulate demand. We may also run the risk that our inventory of raw materials may become obsolete. Our ink products have a defined shelf life. If we do not sell the ink before the end of its shelf life it will no longer be sellable and will have to be expensed.

If we are not able to hire and retain skilled employees, we may not be able to develop products or meet demand for our products in a timely fashion.

We depend upon skilled employees, such as software and hardware engineers, quality assurance engineers and other technical professionals with specialized skills. We are headquartered in the Silicon Valley and additionally have research and development offices in India. Competition in both locations has historically been intense amongst companies hiring engineering and technical professionals. In times of professional labor imbalances, it has in the past and is likely in the future to be difficult for us to locate and hire qualified engineers and technical professionals and for us to retain these people. There are many technology companies located near our corporate offices in the Silicon Valley and our operations in India that may try to hire our employees. The movement of our stock price may also impact our ability to hire and retain employees. If we do not offer competitive compensation, we may not be able to recruit or retain employees, which may have an adverse effect on our ability to develop products in a timely fashion, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

We offer a broad-based equity compensation plan based on granting options and restricted stock from stockholder-approved plans in order to be competitive in the labor market. If we cannot offer equity awards when necessary to enable us to offer compensation competitive with those offered by other companies seeking the same employees, it may be difficult for us to hire and retain skilled employees.

Our acquisitions in the Inkjet and APPS product categories increased the chance that we will experience additional bad debt expense.

Our OEM customers are typically large profitable customers who present little credit risk to us. Our APPS and Inkjet businesses sell primarily via a direct sales force to a broader base of customers, many of whom are smaller and potentially less credit worthy. In addition, as we continue to increase our revenues from our Inkjet customers, many of whom are located overseas in many countries, it may be hard to enforce our legal rights should collection issues arise.

Because of our acquisitions we now sell our products to distributors and directly to the end-user. If we are unable to effectively manage a direct sales force, sales and revenues could decline.

We have traditionally sold our products to our OEM partners, who in turn sold the product to the end-user. Our marketing focused on manufacturers and distributors of the manufacturers’ equipment, not on the end-user of the product. We now sell our professional printing applications and our inkjet printers and ink to distributors and directly to the end-user. If we are unable to effectively manage a direct sales force and develop a marketing program that can reach the end-users, we are likely to see a decline in revenues from those products.

Acquisitions may result in unanticipated accounting charges or otherwise adversely affect our results of operations and result in difficulties in assimilating and integrating the operations, personnel, technologies, products and information systems of acquired companies or businesses.

We seek to develop new technologies and products from both internal and external sources. As part of this effort, we have in the past made, and will likely continue to make, acquisitions of other companies or other companies’ assets.

Acquisitions involve numerous risks, such as:

 

   

if we issue equity securities in connection with an acquisition, the issuance may be dilutive to our existing stockholders; alternatively, acquisitions made entirely or partially for cash (such as our acquisition of VUTEk) will reduce our cash reserves;

 

   

difficulties in integration of operations, employees, technologies, or products and the related diversion of management time and effort to accomplish successful integration;

 

   

risks of entering markets in which we have little or no prior experience, or entering markets where competitors have stronger market positions;

 

   

possible write-downs of impaired assets;

 

   

potential loss of key employees of the acquired company;

 

   

possible expense overruns;

 

   

an adverse reaction by customers, suppliers or partners of the acquired company or EFI;

 

   

the risk of changes in ratings by stock analysts;

 

   

potential litigation surrounding transactions or the prior actions of the acquired company, such as the VUTEk patent lawsuit or any administrative proceedings;

 

   

the inability to protect or secure technology rights; and

 

   

increases in operating costs;

Mergers and acquisitions of companies are inherently risky and we cannot provide assurance that our previous or future acquisitions will be successful or will not harm our business, operating results, financial condition, or stock price.

We may ultimately not receive amounts held in escrow related to disposition of assets.

On January 29, 2009, we sold a portion of our Foster City campus to Gilead Sciences, Inc. for a total price of $137.5 million, subject to an escrow holdback of $15.5 million. While the escrow holdback is expected to be released by January 2010, no assurance can be given that we will ultimately receive amounts held in escrow.

We face risks relating to the impairment of our goodwill and long-lived assets.

We complete a review of the carrying value of our assets annually and, based on a combination of factors, we may be required to perform an interim analysis. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company’s market capitalization declined significantly as a result of declining worldwide economic conditions caused by the tightening of global credit markets. Based on a combination of factors including the recent economic environment, the resulting erosion in our market capitalization, and the degradation of our revenue forecast subsequent to the third quarter of 2008, we performed an interim impairment analysis during the fourth quarter of 2008. Based on the outcome of the interim impairment analysis, we concluded that an impairment had occurred relating to the Inkjet product category resulting in a non-cash impairment charge of $111.9 million during the quarter related to both goodwill and other long-lived assets.

Given the current economic environment and the uncertainties regarding the impact on our business, there can be no assurance that our estimates and assumptions regarding the duration of the ongoing economic downturn, or the period or strength of recovery, made for purposes of our goodwill impairment testing during the three months ended December 31, 2008 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding forecasted revenue or gross margin rates are not achieved, we may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods relating to any of our reporting units, whether in connection with the next annual impairment testing in the third quarter of 2009 or prior to that, if any such change constitutes a triggering event outside of the quarter from when the annual goodwill impairment test is performed. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

While impairment does not impact reported cash flows, it does result in a non-cash charge in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and thus no assurance can be given that any future impairments would not affect our financial performance and valuation of assets and, as a result, harm our business, operating results, financial condition, or stock price.

We face risks from currency fluctuations.

Approximately $262.5 million and $293.4 million of our revenue from the sale of products for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, came from sales outside the Americas, primarily to Europe and Japan. We expect that sales outside the Americas will continue to represent a significant portion of our total revenue. The majority of our revenues are invoiced in U.S. dollars.

Given the significance of our non-U.S. sales to our total product revenue, we face a continuing risk from the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar versus foreign currencies. When we invoice our customers in their respective local currencies, our cash flows and earnings are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates between the currency of the invoice and the U.S. dollar.

In addition, we have a substantial number of international employees which creates material operating costs denominated in foreign currencies. We have attempted to limit or hedge these exposures through operational strategies where we have considered it appropriate in the past, although no hedging activities occurred in 2008. Our efforts to reduce the risk from our international operations and from fluctuations in foreign currencies or interest rates may not be successful, which could harm our financial condition and operating results.

We face risks from our international operations.

We are subject to certain risks because of our international operations. Changes to and compliance with a variety of foreign laws and regulations that may increase our cost of doing business and our inability or failure to obtain

 

20


Table of Contents

required approvals could harm our international and domestic sales. Trade legislation in either the United States or other countries, such as a change in the current tariff structures, export compliance laws or other trade policies, could adversely affect our ability to sell or to manufacture in international markets. Some of our sales to international customers are made under export licenses that must be obtained from the United States Department of Commerce (“DOC”) and certain transactions require prior approval of the DOC. Changes in governmental regulation and our inability or failure to obtain required approvals, permits or registrations could harm our international and domestic sales and adversely affect our revenues, business and operations. Any violations could result in fines and penalties, including prohibiting us from exporting our products to one or more countries, and could materially and adversely affect our business.

Moreover, local laws and customs in many countries differ significantly from those in the United States. We incur additional legal compliance costs associated with our international operations and could become subject to legal penalties in foreign countries if we do not comply with local laws and regulations, which may be substantially different from those in the United States. In many foreign countries, particularly in those with developing economies, it may be common to engage in business practices that are prohibited by United States regulations applicable to us such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Although we implement policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with these laws, there can be no assurance that all of our employees, contractors and agents, as well as those companies to which we outsource certain of our business operations, including those based in or from countries where practices which violate such United States laws may be customary, will not take actions in violation of our policies. Any such violation, even if prohibited by our policies, could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Other risks include natural disasters and political or economic conditions in a specific country or region. In addition, many countries in which we derive revenues do not currently have comprehensive and highly developed legal systems, particularly with respect to the protection of intellectual property rights, which, among other things, can result in the prevalence of infringing products and counterfeit goods in certain countries, which could harm our business and reputation.

We may be unable to adequately protect our proprietary information and may incur expenses to defend our proprietary information.

We rely on a combination of copyright, patent, trademark and trade secret protection, nondisclosure agreements and licensing and cross-licensing arrangements to establish, maintain and protect our intellectual property rights, all of which afford only limited protection. We have patents and pending patent applications in the United States and in various foreign countries. There can be no assurance that patents will issue from our pending applications or from any future applications, or that, if issued, any claims allowed will be sufficiently broad to protect our technology. Any failure to adequately protect our proprietary information could harm our financial condition and operating results. We cannot be certain that any patents that have been or may in the future be issued to us, or which we license from third parties, or any other of our proprietary rights will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. In addition, we cannot be certain that any rights granted to us under any patents, licenses or other proprietary rights will provide adequate protection of our proprietary information.

In addition, as different areas of our business change or mature, from time to time we evaluate our patent portfolio and make decisions either to pursue or not to pursue specific patents and patent applications related to such areas. Choosing not to pursue certain of our patents, patentable applications and failing to file applications for potentially patentable inventions, may harm our business by, among other things, enabling our competitors to more effectively compete with us, reducing the potential claims we can bring against third parties for patent infringement and limiting our potential defenses to intellectual property claims brought by third parties.

Litigation has been and may continue to be necessary to defend and enforce our proprietary rights. Such litigation, whether or not concluded successfully for us, could involve significant expense and the diversion of our attention and other resources, which could harm our financial condition and operating results.

Table of Contents

We face risks from third party claims of infringement and potential litigation.

Third parties have claimed in the past and may claim in the future that our products infringe, or may infringe, their proprietary rights. Such claims have in the past resulted in lengthy and expensive litigation and could do so in the future. Such claims and any related litigation, whether or not we are successful in the litigation, could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources, which could harm our financial condition and operating results. Although we may seek licenses from third parties covering intellectual property that we are allegedly infringing, we cannot assure you that any such licenses could be obtained on acceptable terms, if at all.

We may be subject to environmental related liabilities due to our use of hazardous materials and solvents.

We conduct our business operations that involve the use of certain hazardous materials at two separate locations. At these facilities, we mix ink used in some of our printers with solvents and other hazardous materials. Those materials are subject to various governmental regulations relating to their transfer, handling, packaging, use and disposal. We store the ink at warehouses worldwide, including Europe and the United States, and shipping companies ship it at our direction. We face potential responsibility for problems such as spills that may arise when we ship the ink to customers. While we customarily obtain insurance coverage typical for this kind of risk, such insurance may not be sufficient in amount. If we fail to comply with these laws or an accident involving our ink waste or solvents occurs, or if our insurance coverage is not sufficient, then our business and financial results could be harmed.

Future sales of our hardware products in European Union (“EU”) member countries could be limited due to the enactment of the EU Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (“ROHS”).

Since July 1, 2006 forward, new electrical and electronic equipment sold in the EU must not contain lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (“PBBs”) or polybrominated diphenyl ethers (“PBDEs”). These must be replaced by other non- or less than-toxic substances. Manufacturers must comply with significant, and potentially costly, compliance requirements in order to meet the ROHS deadline. Some of our products may not have been converted before the deadline. As a result, we may not be allowed to sell those products in the EU until the products are made fully compliant, which could harm our business and financial results. We could also incur additional costs and liabilities in connection with non-compliant product recalls, regulatory fines and exclusion of non-compliant products from certain markets.

Our products may contain defects which are not discovered until after shipping.

Our products consist of hardware and software developed by ourselves and others. Our products may contain undetected errors and we have in the past discovered software and hardware errors in certain of our products after their introduction, resulting in warranty expense and other expenses incurred in connection with rectifying such errors. Errors could be found in new versions of our products after commencement of commercial shipment and any such errors could result in a loss or delay in market acceptance of such products and thus harm our reputation and revenues. In addition, errors in our products (including errors in licensed third party software) detected prior to new product releases could result in delays in the introduction of new products and our incurring additional expense, which could harm our operating results. We generally provide a twelve month warranty for certain products, which may cover both parts and labor. In the future, we may incur substantial warranty claim expenses on our products which may exceed our estimated warranty reserves, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

Actual or perceived security vulnerabilities in our products could adversely affect our revenues.

Maintaining the security of our software and hardware products is an issue of critical importance to our customers and for us. There are individuals and groups who develop and deploy viruses, worms and other malicious software programs that could attack our products. Although we take preventative measures to protect our products, and we have a response team that is notified of high-risk malicious events, these procedures may

 

22


Table of Contents

not be sufficient to mitigate damage to our products. Actual or perceived security vulnerabilities in our products could lead some customers to seek to return products, to reduce or delay future purchases or to purchase competitive products. Customers may also increase their expenditures on protecting their computer systems from attack, which could delay or reduce purchases of our products. Any of these actions or responses by customers could adversely affect our revenues.

System failures or system unavailability could harm our business.

We rely on our network infrastructure, internal technology systems and our internal and external websites for our development, marketing, operational, support and sales activities. Our hardware and software systems related to such activities are subject to damage from malicious code released into the public Internet through recently discovered vulnerabilities in popular software programs. These systems are also subject to acts of vandalism and to potential disruption by actions or inactions of third parties. Any event that causes failures or interruption in our hardware or software systems could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

The location and concentration of our facilities subjects us to the risk of earthquakes, floods or other natural disasters and public health risks.

Our corporate headquarters, including most of our research and development facilities, are located in the San Francisco Bay Area, an area known for seismic activity. This area has also experienced flooding in the past. In addition, many of the components necessary to supply our products are purchased from suppliers based in areas including the San Francisco Bay Area, Taiwan and Japan and are therefore subject to risk from natural disasters. A significant natural disaster, such as an earthquake, flood or typhoon, could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

Our employees, suppliers and customers are located worldwide. We face the risk that our employees, suppliers, or customers, either through travel or contact with other individuals, could become exposed to contagious diseases endemic to particular regions of the world. In addition, governments in those regions have from time-to-time imposed quarantines and taken other actions in response to contagious diseases that could affect our operations. If a significant number of employees, suppliers, or customers were unable to fulfill their obligations, due to contagious diseases, actions taken in response to contagious diseases, or other reasons, our business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed.

We are subject to numerous federal and state employment laws and may face claims in the future under such laws.

We are subject to numerous federal and state employment laws, and from time to time we face claims by our employees and former employees under such laws. Although there are no pending or threatened claims under wage and hour laws against us, we cannot assure you that claims under such laws or other employment-related laws will not be attempted in the future against us, nor can we predict the likely impact of any such claims on us, or that, if asserted, we would be able to successfully resolve any such claims without incurring significant expenses.

We may be subject to the risk of loss due to fire because the materials we use in the manufacturing process of our inks are flammable.

We use flammable materials in the manufacturing processes of our inks and may therefore be subject to the risk of loss arising from fires. The risk of fire associated with these materials cannot be completely eliminated. We own certain facilities that manufacture our inks, which increases our exposure to such risk in case these facilities are destroyed. We maintain insurance policies to reduce losses caused by fire, including business interruption insurance. If one or more of these facilities is damaged or otherwise ceases operations as a result of a fire, it would reduce manufacturing capacity and, consequently, may reduce revenues and adversely affect our business.

The value of our investment portfolio is subject to interest rate volatility.

We have an investment portfolio of mainly fixed income securities classified as available-for-sale securities. As a result, our investment portfolio is subject to volatility if market interest rates fluctuate and counterparty risk. We attempt to limit this exposure to interest rate risk by investing in securities with maturities of less than three years; however, we may be unable to successfully limit our risk to interest rate fluctuations and this may cause volatility in our investment portfolio value.

Our stock price has been volatile historically and may continue to be volatile.

The market price for our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile. During the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2008, the price of our common stock as reported on The NASDAQ Global Select Market ranged from a low of $7.56 to a high of $22.44. We expect our stock price to be subject to fluctuations as a result of a variety of factors, including factors beyond our control. These factors include:

 

   

actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly or annual operating results;

 

   

ability to complete share repurchase programs;

 

   

our failure to meet analyst expectations;

 

   

announcements of technological innovations or new products or services by us or our competitors;

 

   

announcements relating to strategic relationships, acquisitions or investments;

 

   

announcements by our customers regarding their businesses or the products in which our products are included;

 

   

changes in financial estimates or other statements by securities analysts;

 

   

changes in general economic conditions;

 

   

terrorist attacks and the effects of military engagements or natural disasters;

 

   

changes in the rating of our securities;

 

   

changes in the economic performance and/or market valuations of other software and high-technology companies; and

 

   

commencement of litigation or adverse results in pending litigation.

Because of this volatility, we may fail to meet the expectations of our stockholders or of securities analysts from time-to-time and the trading prices of our securities could decline as a result. In addition, the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the trading prices of equity securities of many high-technology companies, including the economic uncertainty over the past several months. These fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. Any negative change in the public’s perception of high-technology companies could depress our stock price regardless of our operating results.

On February 5, 2009, our Board of Directors approved a $100 million share repurchase program, including a $30 million accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) by utilizing a portion of the proceeds from the recent sale of land and building to Gilead. On February 18, 2009, we entered into an agreement with UBS AG, London branch (“UBS”) to repurchase $30 million of our common stock under the ASR program. We expect to complete the repurchases under the ASR program in the second or third quarter of 2009, with the final completion date subject to the discretion of UBS.

Our stock repurchase program could affect our stock price and add volatility.

Any repurchases pursuant to our stock repurchase program, including our accelerated share repurchase program, could affect our stock price and add volatility. There can be no assurance that the repurchases will be made at the best possible price. Potential risks and uncertainties also include, but are not necessarily limited to, our ability to

 

24


Table of Contents

complete the share repurchases within the originally expected timing, the amount and timing of future share repurchases and the original funds used for such repurchases. The existence of a stock repurchase program could also cause our stock price to be higher than it would be in the absence of such a program and could potentially reduce the market liquidity for our stock.

Additionally, we are permitted to and could discontinue our stock repurchase program at any time and any such discontinuation could cause the market price of our stock to decline.

Under regulations required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, our internal controls over financial reporting may become ineffective, and this could have a negative impact on our stock price.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we establish and maintain an adequate internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting and assess on an ongoing basis the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting. Although no known material weaknesses are believed to exist at this time, it is possible that material weaknesses could be identified. If we are unable to remediate the weaknesses, our management would be required to conclude that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective. In addition to their inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, errors, omissions, or fraud.

The matters relating to the shareholder derivative litigation concerning our historical stock option granting practices could require us to continue incurring additional expenses for accounting, legal and other professional services, diverted our management’s attention from our business and had and may continue to have a material adverse effect on our financial performance.

The matters relating to our historical stock option practices and shareholder derivative litigation required us to expend significant management time and incur significant accounting, legal and other expenses.

During the fiscal year of 2008, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) notified us that it had terminated the informal inquiry into the Company’s historical stock option practices and that no enforcement action had been recommended and the Delaware Chancery Court approved the proposed settlement of related shareholder derivative litigation. The settlement provided for the adoption of certain remedial measures, including the cancellation and repricing of certain stock options, certain payments to be made to the Company and the adoption of a number of changes to our corporate governance and procedures. Although we have substantially implemented the proposed remedial measures and the SEC investigation and related shareholder derivative litigation are now closed, there can be no guarantee that we will not incur additional expenses in the future, related to our historical stock option granting practices, the settlement and the remedial measures.

A reduction in our net income as reported on our financial statements could increase the likelihood of identifying a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting.

The threshold for determining whether or not we have a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting and procedures as defined by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act is, in part, based on our generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, net income. Lowered GAAP net income, with an associated lowered materiality threshold, may increase our risk that internal control weaknesses may result in a material misstatement in the financial statements. For example, continued acquisitions, and the associated amortization of intangibles, will increase our amortization expenses and in the future may lower our GAAP earnings which would result in a lower materiality threshold for internal control testing.

Our synthetic lease arrangements may adversely affect our cash flow.

As of December 31, 2008, we were a party to two synthetic leases (the “301 Lease” and the “303 Lease”, together “Leases”) covering our Foster City facilities located at 301 and 303 Velocity Way, Foster City, California. These leases provided a cost effective means of providing adequate office space for our corporate

 

25


Table of Contents

offices. Both Leases were scheduled to expire in July 2014. The leases included an option to purchase the facilities during or at the end of the term of the leases for the amount expended by the lessor to purchase the facilities. We have exercised our purchase option in January 2009 with respect to the 301 Lease. On January 29, 2009, we completed the sale of land and building to Gilead for a total price of $137.5 million, subject to an escrow holdback of $15.5 million. The escrow period expires January 2010. The property sold included approximately thirty acres of land and the office building located on the land at 301 Velocity Way, Foster City, California, consisting of approximately 163,000 square feet and certain other assets related to the property.

We have guaranteed to the lessor a residual value associated with the buildings equal to 82% of their funding of the respective Leases. Under the financial covenants, we must maintain a minimum net worth and a minimum tangible net worth as of the end of each quarter. There is an additional covenant regarding mergers. We were in compliance with all such financial and merger related covenants as of December 31, 2008. We are liable to the lessor for the financed amount of the buildings if we default on our covenants. Since we exercised our purchase option with respect to the 301 Lease, our exposure under our remaining synthetic lease arrangements is $56.9 million as of January 29, 2009.

Our remaining synthetic lease arrangement with respect to the 303 Lease could have significant negative consequences. For example, it could:

 

   

increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, as we are required to maintain compliance with financial covenants regardless of external conditions;

 

   

limit our ability to obtain additional financing due to covenants and the existing leverage;

 

   

require the dedication of funds to comply with the financial covenants, thereby reducing the availability of cash flow and/or ability to obtain financing to fund our growth strategy, working capital, capital expenditures, and other general corporate purposes; and

 

   

limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our industry by restricting the funds available for use in addressing such changes; and place us at a competitive disadvantage relative to our competitors.

At December 31, 2008, approximately 83,596 square feet were sub-leased. On January 29, 2009, we sold the 163,000 square feet building and approximately 30 acres of land to Gilead. Please see Note 13—Sale of Land and Building in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further disclosure.

**

At our option, we could purchase the facilities during or at the end of the leases for the amount expended by the lessor to purchase the facilities. Please see Note 8—Commitment and Contingencies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

We believe that our facilities, in general, are adequate for our present needs. We do not expect that, if the need arises, we would experience difficulties in obtaining additional space at fair market rates.

Item 3: Legal Proceedings

Legal Proceedings

We may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations and proceedings relating to contractual disputes, securities law, intellectual property, employment matters and other claims or litigation matters relating to various claims that arise in the normal course of our business. We determine whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. We assess our potential liability by analyzing our specific litigation and regulatory matters using available information. We develop our views on estimated losses in consultation with inside and outside counsel, which involves a subjective analysis of potential results and outcomes, assuming various combinations of appropriate litigation and settlement strategies. Because of the uncertainties related to both the amount and ranges of possible loss on the pending litigation matters, we are unable to predict with certainty the precise liability that could finally result from a range of possible unfavorable outcomes. However, taking all of the above factors into account, we reserve an amount that we could reasonably expect to pay for the cases discussed. However, our estimates could be wrong, and we could pay more or less than our current accrual. Litigation can be costly, diverting management’s attention and could, upon resolution, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flow.

As of December 31, 2008, the end of the annual period covered by this report, we are subject to the various claims, lawsuits, investigations or proceedings discussed below, as well as certain other legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. We also settled certain matters during the fourth quarter of 2008.

Leggett & Platt, Inc. and L&P Property Management Company:

On November 6, 2007, EFI filed a complaint against Leggett & Platt, Inc. and its patent holding subsidiary, L&P Property Management Company in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri for declaratory and injunctive relief challenging the validity and enforceability of a patent issued to L&P. The challenged patent is a continuation of a patent that L&P previously asserted against EFI in a prior court action. The court ultimately

Table of Contents

invalidated the patent in the prior court action on multiple grounds. EFI firmly believes that the court should summarily invalidate the continuation patent for similar reasons. Further, EFI believes that L&P’s failure to adequately disclose the previous lawsuit proceedings to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office amounts to inequitable conduct that should render the new patent unenforceable. Thus, EFI has filed a motion for summary judgment on these issues. L&P filed counterclaims against EFI, including claims for alleged infringement of the continuation patent. While EFI believes that its products do not infringe, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this litigation.

Durst Fototechnik Technology GmbH v. Electronics for Imaging, GmbH et al.:

On February 23, 2007, Durst brought a patent infringement action against Electronics for Imaging, GmbH (“EFI GmbH”) in the Mannheim District Court in Germany. On May 10, 2007, EFI GmbH filed its Statement of Defenses. These defenses include lack of jurisdiction, non-infringement, invalidity and unenforceability based on Durst’s improper actions before the German patent office. The Company filed its Statement of Defense on August 29, 2007. EFI’s defenses include those for EFI GmbH, as well as an additional defense for prior use based on EFI’s own European patent rights. The Mannheim court conducted a trial on November 30, 2007. At the conclusion of the trial, the court ordered the parties to provide further briefing regarding issues raised by EFI regarding the validity of Durst’s patent. On February 15, 2008, the Court decided to appoint an expert to assist it on questions related to the validity of the Durst utility model right. EFI will continue to defend itself vigorously. While EFI believes that its products do not infringe any valid claim of Durst’s patent, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this litigation.

Acacia | Screentone Patent Litigation:

On August 8, 2007, Screentone Systems Corporation, a subsidiary of Acacia Technologies Group, initiated litigation against several defendants, including Konica Minolta Printing Solutions, Canon USA, and Ricoh Americas, for infringement of a patent related to apparatus and methods of digital halftoning in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. Konica Minolta, Canon and Ricoh are EFI customers. EFI has contractual obligations to indemnify its customers to varying degrees and subject to various circumstances. At least one defendant has written requesting indemnification for any EFI products that allegedly infringe these patents.

In order to protect its products and its customers, on November 13, 2007 EFI filed a declaratory judgment action (“DJ”) in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California seeking to invalidate the patent asserted in the Texas action, as well as an additional patent Acacia identified in previous correspondence. At about the same time, other defendants from the Texas actions filed DJ actions in Washington and Delaware. A federal multidistrict litigation panel consolidated all cases with EFI’s case in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, where the consolidated cases are now proceeding. The claims challenging the patent first asserted in the Texas action remain pending, and the consolidated case is currently set for trial on August 30, 2010.

While EFI does not believe that its products infringed any valid claim of Acacia and Screentone’s patents, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this litigation.

Bureau of Industry and Security Export Investigation:

In January 2005, prior to EFI’s acquisition of VUTEk, the U.S. Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”) initiated an investigation of VUTEk relating to VUTEk’s alleged failure to comply with U.S. export regulations in connection with several export sales to Syria in 2004. EFI self-initiated an internal compliance review of historical export practices for both VUTEk and EFI. Potential violations uncovered during our compliance review were voluntarily disclosed to BIS in November 2006 (for VUTEk) and December 2006 (for EFI). Additionally, we provided BIS with detailed reports of our compliance review findings and supplemental information in March 2007 (for VUTEk) and May 2007 (for EFI). The areas of possible non-compliance found in the internal review relate to: (1) deemed exports of controlled encryption source code and/or technology to foreign nationals of Syria and Iran, (2) exports of printers and other products with encryption functionality before completion of encryption reviews by BIS and (3) statistical reporting errors on

some export declarations. The Office of Export Enforcement at BIS HQ referred the VUTEk matter to an attorney in the Office of Chief Counsel for Industry and Security for final determination. In December 2008, these matters were resolved with administrative penalties of $32,000.

Purported Derivative Shareholder Complaints:

Beginning on August 16, 2006, several purported derivative shareholder complaints were filed in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Mateo, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, and Delaware Chancery Court. The complaints generally alleged that certain of the Company’s current and former officers and/or directors breached their fiduciary duties by improperly backdating stock option grants to various officers and directors in violation of the Company’s stock option plans, as well as in improperly accounting for the allegedly backdated options in violation of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The actions in the Northern District of California also alleged that the individual defendants violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Delaware actions also purported to be brought on behalf of a class consisting of all others similarly situated and alleged a class claim for breach of the fiduciary duty of disclosure. The actions filed in San Mateo County were dismissed without prejudice. The actions in the Northern District of California were stayed in deference to the litigation pending in Delaware.

On September 4, 2008, the Delaware Chancery Court approved the previously disclosed proposed settlement of related shareholder derivative litigation concerning the Company’s historical option granting practices. On October 6, 2008, the time to file a notice of appeal from the Chancery Court’s order approving the settlement elapsed, and no notice of appeal was filed.

Pursuant to the settlement, the Company received $5.0 million in insurance proceeds and paid approximately $3.1 million in plaintiffs’ legal fees and costs in October 2008. The settlement also provided for the adoption of certain remedial measures, including the cancellation and repricing of certain stock options, certain payments to be made to the Company and the adoption of a number of changes to EFI’s corporate governance and procedures.

Tesseron Patent Litigation:

On September 26, 2007, Tesseron, Ltd. initiated litigation against Konica Minolta Business Solutions USA, Konica Minolta Business Technologies and Konica Minolta Holdings for infringement of eight patents related to variable printing technology in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division. Konica Minolta is an EFI customer and the complaint references EFI Fiery variable data enabled printer controllers. EFI has contractual obligations to indemnify its customers to varying degrees and subject to various circumstances. Konica Minolta has written requesting indemnification for any EFI products that allegedly infringe these patents. On December 6, 2007, Tesseron filed an amended complaint in the Ohio action wherein it added EFI and Ricoh as defendants, but dropped 6 of the 8 original patents in suit.

On October 30, 2007, EFI filed a complaint against Tesseron in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, which subsequently transferred the action to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. EFI’s complaint sought a declaratory judgment that Tesseron’s patents are invalid and/or not infringed. EFI also sought to prevent Tesseron and its attorneys from threatening EFI or its OEM customers with infringement of those patents, or bringing a lawsuit claiming infringement with regard to such products. After transfer of EFI’s action to Ohio, EFI negotiated for a covenant not to sue on 6 of the 8 patents that Tesseron had originally threatened against EFI and its customers.

On September 30, 2008, EFI reached a settlement with Tesseron and, on October 17, 2008, the Ohio District Court dismissed EFI’s and Tesseron’s claims, defenses, and counterclaims against one another. The terms of the settlement between the parties are confidential and the amount has been paid to Tesseron in full.

As of February 20, 2009 there were 290 stockholders of record. Because many of such shares are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of stockholders, we are unable to provide the actual number of stockholders represented by these record holders.

We did not declare or pay cash dividends on our capital stock in either fiscal year 2008 or 2007. We currently anticipate that we will retain all available funds for the operation of our business and will not pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

All assumptions, anticipations, expectations and forecasts contained herein are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include, among others, those statements including the words “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “believes” and similar language. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed here. For a discussion of the factors that could impact our results, readers are referred to Item 1A “Risk Factors” in Part I of this Annual Report and to our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not assume any obligation to update the forward-looking statements provided to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they were made.

Overview

Key financial results for 2008 were as follows:

 

   

Our consolidated revenues decreased by approximately 10%, or $60.2 million, from $620.6 million in 2007 to $560.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. This was due primarily to the Controllers product revenues, which contributed $52.7 million of the decrease in 2008.

 

   

Gross margins decreased to 57% in 2008 versus 58% in 2007 due to a greater percentage of Inkjet products sales which have lower gross margins than our APPS and Controller products.

 

   

Operating expenses as a percent of revenues increased from 59% in 2007 to 82% in 2008 primarily due to impairment charges recorded on goodwill and certain long lived assets as a result of the impairment analysis conducted during the fourth quarter, in-process research & development write-off charges related to our acquisition of Pace and Rastek, and increased restructuring and other costs as a result of headcount reductions and facility closures during the year. Had these costs not be included in operating expenses, our total operating expenses for 2008 would have been 60% of revenues, which approximates prior year total operating expenses as a percentage of revenues.

 

   

Interest and other income decreased from 4% of revenue in 2007 to 2% of revenue in 2008 driven by lower interest income on our investments on lower investment balances and interest rates. We sold a substantial portion of our investment portfolio during the first five months of 2008 in order to generate cash for the redemption of our 1.50% convertible senior debentures, which occurred on June 2, 2008.

 

   

In 2008, we recorded a benefit from income taxes of $19.6 million on pretax loss of $133.1 million and, in 2007, we recorded a benefit from income taxes of $4.6 million on pretax income of $22.2 million. The change from 2008 to 2007 primarily related to a pre-tax loss of $133.1 million incurred in 2008.

Revenue

We currently classify our revenue into three categories. The first category, “Controllers,” includes products and technology which connect digital copiers with computer networks, and is made up of stand-alone controllers and embedded desktop controllers, bundled solutions and design-licensed solutions primarily for the office market and commercial printing. This category includes our Fiery series (external print servers and embedded servers), Splash and MicroPress, color and black and white server products, software options for Fiery products and parts. It also includes server-related revenue comprised of scanning solutions. The second category, “Inkjet Products,” consists of sales of the super-wide and wide format inkjet printers, industrial inkjet printers, inks, and parts and services revenue from the VUTEk, Jetrion, and Rastek businesses. The third category, “Advanced Professional Print Software,” or APPS, consists of software technology focused on printing workflow, print management information systems (PMIS), proofing and e-commerce and job tracking tools. APPS also consists of revenue from the Pace business in PMIS and e-commerce solutions.

Our revenues by product category for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 were as follows (in thousands):

Revenues in Controllers and APPS categories for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2007 have been revised to reflect the reclassification of Controller-related software revenue from the APPS category to the Controllers category. Total revenue from the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2007 have not changed.

Overview

Revenue was $560.4 million in 2008, compared to $620.6 million in 2007 and $564.6 million in 2006 resulting in a 10% decrease in 2008 versus 2007 and a 10% increase in 2007 versus 2006. The $60.2 million decrease in 2008 compared to 2007 was primarily due to a $52.7 million decrease in Controllers revenues and a $9.3 million decrease in Inkjet product revenues, offset by a slight increase of $1.8 million in APPS revenues.

Controllers Revenues

In our Controllers category, revenue declined by $52.7 million or 16% in 2008 versus 2007, which was primarily driven by reduced demand from our OEM customers throughout the world due to a slowing global economy. The tightening of global credit markets also contributed to the decline as it has become relatively more difficult for some of our customers to obtain financing.

Inkjet Products Revenues

Inkjet product revenues were $220.0 million in 2008 as compared to $229.3 million in 2007. The year-over-year decline of $9.3 million or 4% was primarily due to substantially lower printer volume in the fourth quarter of 2008, as year-over-year revenues in the fourth quarter of 2008 versus 2007 decreased by $21.5 million or 31% in total. It has become relatively more difficult for customers to obtain financing to purchase our products due to the tightening of global credit markets. In addition, the softening of the retail sector and the related demand for signs, billboards and point of purchase displays has impacted our customers’ businesses and their demand for ink, which resulted in a lower demand for our ink products in the fourth quarter of 2008.

Inkjet product revenues were $180.2 million in 2006 as compared to $229.3 million in 2007. The increase is due to the continued sales of VUTEk’s QS series of UV printers, driven by demand in Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) and the Americas.

Advanced Professional Print Software Revenues

Revenue in the Advanced Professional Print Software category increased by $1.8 million or 3% in 2008 over 2007, primarily due to the strong sales of our PMIS products and partially due to the acquisition of Pace during the third quarter of 2008 which strengthened our PMIS products. The APPS category increased 7% in 2007 over 2006 primarily due to the strength of our suite of products. This category includes our management systems software, including Hagen, Pace, PSI, Logic, PrintSmith and PrintFlow; our web-based order entry and order management software, including Digital StoreFront PrinterSite Suite; and our proofing software, including ColorProof XF and resale of products from third party suppliers such as XmPie software and Manhattan Associates software among others. The software applications in this category generate higher margins, favorably impacting our margins. In 2008, we re-organized our PMIS product lines after the acquisition of Pace in order to better leverage our investment in this segment and concentrate our resources on fewer products. As a result, we are no longer selling PSI and Logic to new customers and have reduced our investment in the development of these products. We currently sell PrintSmith to small print-for-pay and small commercial print shops, Pace to medium and large commercial printers, wide format and digital printers, and Monarch to large commercial printers, publication printers, and digital printers.

Revenue declined in 2008 across all regions primarily driven by our Controllers products. In the individual regions, Controllers product revenues in 2008 represented 46%, 43%, 98%, and 41% of revenue in the Americas, EMEA, Japan and other international locations, respectively.

In 2008, revenues in the Americas, EMEA, and Japan regions represented 35%, 53% and 9% of revenues, respectively, with no change from 2007.

Revenue growth in 2007 across all regions was primarily driven by our Inkjet products.

Shipments to some of our U.S. OEM customers are made to centralized purchasing and manufacturing locations, which in turn ship to other locations, making it more difficult to obtain accurate geographical shipment data. Accordingly, we believe that export sales of our products into each region may differ from what is reported. We expect that sales outside of the United States will continue to represent a significant portion of our total revenue.

A substantial portion of our revenue over the years has been attributable to sales of products through our OEM customers and independent distributor channels. For the year ended December 31, 2008, two customers—Canon and Xerox—each provided more than 10% of our revenue individually and approximately 29% of revenue in the aggregate. For the year ended December 31, 2007, two customers—Canon and Xerox—each provided more than 10% of our revenue individually and approximately 31% of revenue in the aggregate. For the year ended December 31, 2006, Canon and Xerox each provided more than 10% of our revenue individually and approximately 34% of revenue in the aggregate. We have shown decreasing dependency on the OEM business although in 2008, 49% of our revenues were from non-OEM sources. In 2007 and 2006, 51% and 52% respectively of our business was from non-OEM sources. We do not expect a decrease in OEM revenue in 2009 as a percentage of total revenue, but over time we do expect the OEM percentage to decline.

The decreasing reliance on major OEM partners is attributable to the increasing percentage of revenue derived from the Inkjet Products business and APPS business where most of the revenue is generated from sales to distributors and direct customers. No assurance can be given that our relationships with distributors and direct customers will continue or that we will be successful in maintaining or increasing the number of our OEM customers or the size of our existing OEM relationships. Several of our OEM customers have reduced their purchases from us at various times in the past and any customer could do so in the future as there are no contractual obligations by most of our OEMs to purchase our products at all, or in significant amounts. Such reductions have occurred in the past and could in the future have a significant negative impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations. We expect that if we increase our revenues from our Inkjet Products and our professional printing applications, the percentage of our revenue that comes from individual OEMs will continue to decrease further.

We intend to continue to develop new products and technologies for each of our product lines including new generations of controllers and Controller products and other new product lines and to distribute those new

Table of Contents

products to or through current and new OEM customers, distribution partners, and end-users in 2009 and beyond. No assurance can be given that the introduction or market acceptance of current or future products will be successful.

To the extent that sales of our products do not grow over time in absolute terms, or if we are not able to meet demand for higher unit volumes, it could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. There can be no assurance that any products that we introduce in the future will successfully compete, be accepted by the market, or otherwise effectively replace the volume of revenue and/or income from our older products. Market acceptance of our software products, products acquired through acquisitions and other products cannot be assured.

We also believe that in addition to the factors described above, price reductions for all of our products may affect revenues in the future. We have previously reduced and in the future will likely reduce prices for our products. Depending upon the price-elasticity of demand for our products, the pricing and quality of competitive products, and other economic and competitive conditions, such price reductions have had and may in the future have an adverse impact on our revenues and profits.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expenses were $33.4 million, $24.5 million, and $23.7 million respectively for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006. The year-over-year increase of $8.9 million or 36% from 2007 to 2008 was primarily due to the absence of equity award issuances for the first 10 months of 2007 as a result of the stock options investigation conducted at that time. See Note 12 of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more discussion of Stock-based compensation.

Gross Margins

Our gross margins were 57%, 58%, and 59% for 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease in gross margins in 2008 and 2007 was primarily due to the greater mix of Inkjet sales. Our inkjet printers have a lower gross margin than our Controllers and APPS product lines. Product mix is a significant driver in our gross margins and we cannot predict the impact that product mix will have on future gross margin results. Our inkjet product line is growing as a percentage of revenue which decreases gross margin percentage. For 2008 inkjet revenues were 39% of total revenue as compared to 37% and 32% of total revenues in 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Gross margins on our inkjet products are lower than gross margins on our Controllers business. Our ink sales represent a continuing revenue stream to existing customers that will increase if our inkjet customers’ production increases. Ink margins are typically higher than overall inkjet margins.

If our product mix changes significantly, our gross margins will fluctuate. In addition, gross margins can be impacted by a variety of other factors. These factors include the market prices that can be achieved on our current and future products, the availability and pricing of key components (including DRAM, Processors, and print heads), third party manufacturing costs, product, channel and geographic mix, the success of our product transitions and new products, competition and general economic conditions in the United States and abroad. Consequently, gross margins may fluctuate from period to period. In addition to the factors affecting revenue described above, if we reduce prices, gross margins for our products could be lower.

Our print controllers are manufactured by third-party manufacturers who purchase most of the necessary components. If our third-party manufacturers cannot obtain the necessary components at favorable prices, we could experience an increase in our product costs. We purchase certain parts directly, including processors, memory, certain ASICs and software licensed from various sources, including PostScript® interpreter software, which we license from Adobe.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses increased by 27% in 2008 over 2007 and increased by 14% in 2007 over 2006. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue totaled 82%, 59%, and 57% for 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively. The increase in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue in 2008 versus 2007 primarily resulted from impairment charges incurred on goodwill and long-lived assets during the fourth quarter of 2008, in-process research and development write-off costs related to the acquisition of Pace and Rastek, and an increase in restructuring and other costs, The increase in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue in 2007 versus 2006 primarily resulted from increases in personnel related costs.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs associated with personnel, consulting and prototype parts. Research and development expenses were $140.4 million or 25% of revenue in 2008 compared to $140.5 million or 23% of revenue in 2007 and $127.9 million or 23% of revenue in 2006. The slight decrease of $0.1 million in 2008 was primarily due to a $5.3 million decrease in personnel-related costs, a $1.0 million decrease in consulting expenses, and a $2.7 million decrease in prototypes and non-recurring engineering expenses offset by a $3.9 million increase in stock-based compensation expense, a $0.9 million increase in depreciation of fixed assets, and a $3.5 million increase in allocation of overhead expenses due to a change in allocation methodology in certain overhead expenses. The increase of $12.6 million in 2007 versus 2006 was primarily due to a $9.7 million increase in employee costs related to increased headcount as a result of our investments in our research and development organizations, a $2.0 million increase in consulting fees, a $1.2 million increase in prototype expenses and a $.7 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and other equity plan related costs.

Research and development headcount was 894 and 914 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

We believe that the development of new products and the enhancement of existing products are essential to our success and we intend to continue to devote substantial resources to research and new product development efforts. Accordingly, we expect that our research and development expenses may increase in absolute terms and also as a percentage of revenue in future periods.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing include personnel expenses, costs of trade shows, marketing programs and promotional materials, sales commissions, travel and entertainment expenses, depreciation, and costs associated with sales offices in the United States, Europe, Asia, and other locations around the world. Sales and marketing expenses for 2008 were $119.4 million or 21% of revenue compared to $120.4 million or 19% of revenue in 2007 and $99.2 million or 18% of revenue in 2006.

The $1.0 million decrease in expenses in 2008 versus 2007 was primarily related to a $3.2 million decrease in marketing and travel-related expenses and a $0.5 million decrease in consulting expenses offset by a $2.1 million increase in stock-based compensation expense, and a $0.8 million increase in allocation of overhead expenses due to a change in allocation methodology in certain overhead expenses. The $21.3 million increase in expenses in 2007 versus 2006 was primarily related to a $10.8 million increase in personnel costs related to increased headcount and related sales commissions attributable to the increase in Inkjet sales, a $3.4 million increase in overhead expenses related to the Inkjet expansion in the EMEA region, a $3.2 million increase in travel-related expenses, and a $1.4 million increase in Inkjet promotional expenses.

Sales and marketing headcount was 515 and 519 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Over time, our sales and marketing expenses may increase in absolute terms as we continue to actively promote our products, introduce new products and services, and continue to build our sales and marketing organization, particularly in Europe and Asia Pacific. Sales and marketing expenses may also increase as we continue to grow

our software solutions, Inkjet products, and other new product lines, which require greater sales and marketing support from us. We expect that if the U.S. dollar remains volatile against the Euro or other currencies, sales and marketing expenses reported in U.S. dollars could fluctuate.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of costs associated with administrative personnel, legal and accounting expense and stock option investigation costs. General and administrative expenses were $47.7 million or 8% of revenue in 2008 compared to $67.5 million or 11% of revenue in 2007 and $47.6 million or 8% of revenue in 2006. The $19.8 million decrease in 2008 versus 2007 consists primarily of a decrease of $18.3 million in legal and accounting expenses related to the stock option investigation completed in 2007 and U.S. Internal Revenue Code Section 409A tax payments made to the U.S. government on behalf of employees, a decrease of acquisition costs of $1.5 million, and a decrease of $5.0 million in allocation of overhead expenses as a result of a change in allocation methodology on certain overhead expenses offset by a $3.8 million increase in legal expenses, and a $2.3 million increase in stock-based compensation expense.

The $19.9 million increase in 2007 versus 2006 consists primarily of $9.2 million in legal and accounting expenses related to the stock option investigation, a $3.9 million increase in personnel costs as a result of headcount growth to support the growth in the VUTEk business, a $3.8 million increase in bad debt expense due to the prior year reversal of the VUTEk acquisition allowance for doubtful accounts, $1.5 million in costs related to an acquisition that was not consummated in the first quarter of 2007, and a $1.3 million increase in personnel costs related to the tax settlement pursuant to Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.

Restructuring and Other

Restructuring and other costs totaled $11.0 million or 2% of revenue in 2008. We announced and implemented restructuring plans during 2008 that included organizational changes within targeted research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administration functions to better align spending levels with expected revenues. These charges primarily include cash severance costs, benefits continuation costs, outplacement costs, and facility closure costs related to five sites.

Amortization of Identified Intangibles

Amortization of identified intangibles was $29.4 million or 5% of revenue in 2008 versus $33.5 million or 6% of revenue in 2007 and $35.5 million or 6% of revenue in 2006. The decrease of $4.1 million in 2008 versus 2007 is due to several intangible assets becoming fully amortized in 2008, offset partially by the increased amortization from Pace and Rastek intangible assets beginning in 2008. The decrease of $2.0 million in 2007 versus 2006 is due to several intangible assets becoming fully amortized in 2007.

In-Process Research and Development

In 2008, we incurred in-process research and development expenses of $2.7 million as a result of our acquisitions of Pace and Rastek during the third and fourth quarters, respectively. No in-process research and development expenses were incurred in 2007. In 2006, we incurred in-process research and development expenses of $8.5 million as a result of our acquisition of Jetrion.

Interest and Other Income, Net

Interest and other income

Interest and other income was $13.5 million in 2008 compared with $29.5 million in 2007 and $24.0 million in 2006. The decrease of $16.0 million from 2007 to 2008 was driven by lower interest income on our investments as a result of lower investment balances and interest rates as we sold a substantial portion of our investment portfolio during the first five months of 2008 in order to generate cash for the redemption of our 1.50%

Table of Contents

convertible senior debentures, which occurred on June 2, 2008. Interest and other income was $29.5 million in 2007 compared with $24.0 million in 2006, an increase of $5.5 million. The increase was attributable to higher interest rates and higher average cash, cash equivalents and investment balances. We had net realized gains on our marketable securities of $3.9 million in 2008, and net realized losses of $0.3 million and $0.2 million in 2007, and 2006, respectively.

Interest expense

Interest expense consists of interest and debt amortization costs related to our 1.50% convertible senior debentures. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $1.5 million compared to $5.0 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease of $3.5 million from 2007 to 2008 was driven by the redemption of the outstanding balance of our 1.50% convertible senior debentures on June 2, 2008, which totaled $240.0 million.

Gain on Sale of Product Line

During the second quarter of 2006, we sold our inventory and net assets related to our Mobile Workforce Automation line of products.

Goodwill and Long-Lived Asset Impairment

We perform our annual impairment analysis of goodwill in the third quarter of each year according to the provisions of SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”). The provision requires that we perform a two-step impairment test on goodwill. In the first step, we compare the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and we are not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then we must perform the second step of the impairment testing to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is calculated by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets of the reporting unit, excluding goodwill, from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in the first step. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference.

We performed our annual valuation analysis of goodwill on September 30, 2008 in accordance with SFAS142 as stated above. The goodwill valuation analysis was performed based on our respective reporting units—Controller, Inkjet, and Advanced Professional Print Software. Our reporting units are consistent with our product categories identified in Note 15 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Our product categories meet the definition of a reporting unit one level below an operating segment in accordance with SFAS 142 as each product category constitute a business for which discrete financial information is available and reviewed by segment management.

We determined the fair value of the Inkjet reporting unit based on a weighting of market and income approaches. The fair value of the Controller and APPS reporting units was determined based on the market approach. Under the market approach, we estimated the fair value based on market multiples of revenues or earnings. Under the income approach, we measured fair value of the reporting units based on a projected cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management which is commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. Based on our valuation results, we had determined that the fair values of our reporting units continued to exceed their carrying values. Therefore, management determined that no goodwill impairment charge was required as of September 30, 2008.

We assess the impairment of identifiable intangibles and long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable or that the life of the asset may need to be revised. Factors we consider important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

 

   

significant negative industry or economic trends;

 

41


Table of Contents
   

significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period;

 

   

our market capitalization relative to net book value; and

 

   

significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business.

When we determine that the carrying value of intangibles or long-lived assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, we measure the potential impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. Our annual review of goodwill performed in the third quarter of 2008 indicated that there was no impairment of goodwill. We performed our annual valuation analysis of goodwill on September 30, 2008 in accordance with SFAS142 as stated above.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, our market capitalization declined significantly as a result of declining worldwide economic conditions caused by the tightening of global credit markets. Based on a combination of factors including the recent economic environment, the resulting erosion in our market capitalization, and the lowering of our 2009 revenue outlook subsequent to the third quarter of 2008, we performed an interim impairment analysis during the fourth quarter of 2008.

Based on the internal market-based valuation that we performed, the fair value of the Controller and APPS product categories significantly exceeded their carrying value as of December 31, 2008. Consequently, it was not considered necessary to obtain a third party valuation of these reporting units. A third party interim valuation was obtained with respect to the Inkjet product category, which was equally weighted between the income and market approach.

Based on the outcome of the interim impairment analysis, we concluded that an impairment had occurred relating to the Inkjet product category resulting in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $104 million during the fourth quarter of 2008. There were no impairments of goodwill, intangible assets, or other long-lived assets in 2007 and 2006.

Solely for purposes of establishing inputs for the fair value calculations described above related to goodwill impairment testing, we made the following assumptions:

 

   

the current economic downturn will continue through fiscal year 2010,

 

   

the economic downturn is partially mitigated by new product introductions in 2010,

 

   

followed by a recovery period between 2011 and 2013, and

 

   

long-term industry growth past 2013.

Our discounted cash flow projections for the Inkjet reporting unit were based on five-year financial forecasts. The five-year forecasts were based on annual financial forecasts developed internally by management for use in managing our business and through discussions with the independent valuation firm engaged by us. The significant assumptions of these five-year forecasts included annual revenue growth rates ranging from -11.0% to 12% for the Inkjet reporting unit. The future cash flows were discounted to present value using a mid-year convention and a discount rate of 16%. Terminal values were calculated using the Gordon growth methodology with a long-term growth rate of 4.5%. The sum of the fair values of the Controllers, APPS, and Inkjet reporting units was reconciled to our current market capitalization (based on our stock price) plus an estimated control premium. The significant assumptions used in determining fair values of the reporting units using comparable company market values include the determination of appropriate market comparables, the estimated multiples of revenue, EBIT, and EBITDA that a willing buyer is likely to pay, and the estimated control premium a willing buyer is likely to pay.

Given the current economic environment and the uncertainties regarding the impact on our business, there can be no assurance that our estimates and assumptions regarding the duration of the ongoing economic downturn, or the period or strength of recovery, made for purposes of our goodwill impairment testing during the three months ended December 31, 2008 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding

 

42


Table of Contents

forecasted revenue or gross margin rates are not achieved, we may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods relating to any of our reporting units, whether in connection with the next annual impairment testing in the third quarter of 2009 or prior to that, if any such change constitutes a triggering event outside of the quarter from when the annual goodwill impairment test is performed. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

If we were to increase the revenue growth factor by 1%, the impairment amount would be decreased by approximately $2.5 million. If we were to decrease the revenue growth factor by 1%, the impairment amount would be increased by approximately $2.4 million. If we were to decrease the discount rate by 1%, the impairment amount would be decreased by approximately $13.8 million. If we were to increase the discount rate by 1%, the impairment amount would be increased by approximately $8.8 million. We believe that the assumptions and rates used in our impairment test under SFAS142 are reasonable. However, they are judgmental, and variations in any of the assumptions or rates could result in materially different calculations of impairment amounts.

Long-Lived Assets

Other investments, included within Long-Lived Assets, consist of equity and debt investments in privately-held companies that develop products, markets and services that are strategic to us. Investments in which we exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, but do not have a majority voting interest, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

The process of assessing whether a particular equity investment’s fair value is less than its carrying cost requires a significant amount of judgment due to the lack of a mature and stable public market for these securities. In making this judgment, we carefully consider the investee’s most recent financial results, cash position, recent cash flow data, projected cash flows (both short and long-term), financing needs, recent financing rounds, most recent valuation data, the current investing environment, management or ownership changes, and competition. This process is based primarily on information that we request and receive from these privately-held companies and is performed on a quarterly basis. Although we evaluate all of our privately-held equity investments for impairment based on this criteria, each investment’s fair value is only estimated when events or changes in circumstances have occurred that may have a significant effect on its fair value (because the fair value of each investment is not readily determinable). Where these factors indicate that the equity investment’s fair value is less than its carrying cost, and where we consider such diminution in value to be other than temporary, we record an impairment charge to reduce such equity investment to its estimated net realizable value.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, EFI assessed each remaining investment’s R&D technology pipeline and market conditions for the next several years in the industry and determined that it is no longer probable that they will generate enough positive future cash flows to recover the full carrying amount of the investment. As such, we recognized an impairment charge of $7.9 million.

Income Taxes

In 2008, we recorded a tax benefit of $19.6 million on a pre-tax operating loss of $133.1 million, compared to a tax benefit of $4.6 million recorded in 2007 on pre-tax operating income of $22.2 million and a tax provision of $41.7 million recorded in 2006 on pre-tax operating income of $41.5 million. In each of these years, we benefited from research and development credits. Our taxes also decreased due to both lower taxes on foreign income in 2008 and 2007 and the extra-territorial income exclusion in 2006. Our taxes increased due to both non-deductible stock compensation charges in each of these years, and non-deductible goodwill impairment charges in 2008. As a result of discrete tax adjustments, our taxes in 2008 increased $0.7 million due to interest accrued on prior year tax contingency reserves and $2.5 million related to SFAS 123(R) (“Share-Based Payment”) tax shortfalls. Discrete tax adjustments also reduced our 2008 taxes by $0.5 million due to a reassessment of our taxes resulting

from our filing of our 2007 federal and state income tax returns, $2.5 million due to the completion of our 2002-2004 IRS audits, $2.2 million due to one-time severance costs and $0.3 million due to a reduction in tax reserves, established in prior years on income from foreign operations. As a result of discrete tax adjustments, our taxes in 2007 increased $0.3 million due to interest accrued on prior year tax contingency reserves and $0.9 million due to our reassessment of taxes resulting from our filing of our 2006 federal and state income tax returns. Discrete tax adjustments also reduced our 2007 taxes by $1.6 million due to a reassessment of our federal tax contingency reserves, $1.1 million due to a one-time bonus payment to employees related to the temporary suspension of our ESPP program, $0.4 million related to U.S. Internal Revenue Section 409A payments made on employees’ behalf, and $0.5 million valuation allowance release related to compensation deductions that are no longer anticipated to be limited by U.S. Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). As a result of discrete tax adjustments, our taxes in 2006 were reduced by $0.9 million as a result of the expiration of the statute of limitations for state income tax purposes and $0.4 million due to a reassessment of tax contingency reserves related to the filing of foreign income tax returns, and were increased by $34.9 million due to the migration of the non-North American VUTEk and chipset product lines to our European headquarters and $2.9 million related to sales of the MWA assets.

Effective January 1, 2007 we adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes by requiring a tax position be recognized only when it is more likely than not that the tax position, based on its technical merits, will be sustained upon ultimate settlement with the applicable tax authority. The tax benefit to be recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the applicable tax authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The cumulative effect of adopting FIN 48 has been recorded as an increase of $4.8 million to retained earnings, and a decrease of $1.1 million and $5.9 million in goodwill and taxes payable respectively.

In the third quarter of 2008, we finalized a closing agreement with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to complete their examination of the 2002 through 2004 tax years. As a result of the IRS audit settlement, we also reduced our unrecognized tax benefits by $6.6 million, of which $2.5 million was recorded as a discrete tax benefit. In conjunction with the IRS audit settlement, we also reduced deferred tax assets and equity by $4.1 million and $2.0 million respectively and expect to pay approximately $2.0 million to federal and state tax authorities as a result of the closure of the audit. These adjustments are primarily related to intercompany cost allocations and the research and development credits.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, purchase commitments, revenue recognition and contingencies on an ongoing basis. The estimates are based upon historical and current experience, the impact of the current economic environment, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time of the estimate, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The following are our critical accounting policies and estimates:

 

   

revenue recognition;

 

   

estimating allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory reserves and litigation accruals;

 

   

accounting for stock-based compensation;

 

   

accounting for income taxes;

 

   

valuation analyses for intangible assets and goodwill;

the determination of functional currencies for the purposes of consolidating our international operations.

Revenue recognition. We derive our revenue primarily from product revenue, which includes hardware (controllers, design-licensed solutions, and inkjet printers and ink), software and royalties. We also receive services and support revenue from software license maintenance agreements, customer support and training and consulting. As described below, significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in any accounting period. Material differences could result in the amount and timing of our revenue for any period if our management made different judgments or utilized different estimates.

We recognize revenue in accordance with the provisions of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB104”) and, when applicable, Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” (“EITF 00-21”), for the sale of controllers, printers, and ink. As such, revenue is generally recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered or services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

We use either a purchase order or signed contract as evidence of an arrangement. Sales through some of our OEMs are evidenced by a master agreement governing the relationship together with purchase orders on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Our arrangements do not generally include acceptance clauses. Delivery for hardware generally is complete when title and risk of loss is transferred at point of shipment from manufacturing facilities. In some instances, we also sell products and services in which the terms included in sales arrangements result in different timing for revenue recognition. We assess whether the fee is fixed or determinable based on the terms of the contract or purchase order. We assess collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the credit-worthiness of the customer. We may not request collateral from our customers. If we determine that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, we defer the fee and recognize revenue at the time collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash.

We license our software primarily under perpetual licenses. Revenue from software consists of software licensing, post-contract customer support and professional consulting. We apply the provisions of Statement of Position 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP 97-2”), as amended by Statement of Position 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions” (“SOP 98-9”), and if applicable, SAB 104 and EITF 00-21 to all transactions involving the sale of software products and hardware transactions where the software is not incidental.

When several elements, including software licenses, post-contract customer support and professional services, are sold to a customer through a single contract, the revenue from such multiple-element arrangements are allocated to each element using the residual method in accordance with SOP 98-9. Revenue is allocated to the support elements and professional service elements of an agreement using vendor specific objective evidence of fair value (“VSOE”) and to the software license portion of the agreements using the residual method. We have established VSOE of the fair value of our professional services based on the rates charged to our customers in stand alone orders. We have also established VSOE of fair value for post-contract customer support based on substantive renewal rates. Accordingly, software license fees are recognized under the residual method for arrangements in which the software is licensed with maintenance and/or professional services, and where the maintenance and professional services are not essential to the functionality of the delivered software. Revenue allocated to software licenses is recognized when the following four basic criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. Revenue allocated to post-contract support is recognized ratably over the term of the support contract assuming the four basic criteria are met. We also have subscription arrangements where the customer pays a fixed fee and receives services over a period of time. We recognize revenue from the subscriptions ratably over the service period. Any upfront setup fees associated with our subscription arrangements are recognized ratably, generally over one year.

Allowances for doubtful accounts, inventory reserves, warranty reserves, and litigation accruals. To determine the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts, management must make estimates of the collectability of our accounts receivables. To do so, management analyzes accounts receivable and historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Our accounts receivable balance was $97.3 million, net of allowance for doubtful accounts and sales returns of $8.5 million, as of December 31, 2008.

Similarly, management must make estimates of potential future inventory obsolescence and purchase commitments to measure the need for inventory reserves. Management analyzes current economic trends, changes in customer demand and the acceptance of our products when evaluating the adequacy of such allowances. Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the allowances and reserves in any accounting period. Material differences may result in changes in the amount and timing of our income for any period if management made different judgments or utilized different estimates. Our inventory balance was $48.8 million, net of inventory reserves of $9.8 million, as of December 31, 2008.

Management must make estimates of potential inventory return rates and replacement or repair costs to measure the need for warranty reserves. Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing warranty reserves in any accounting period. Material differences may result in changes in the amount and timing of our income for any period if management made different judgments or utilized different estimates. Warranty reserves were $6.8 million as of December 31, 2008.

We accrue for estimated legal expenses, including potential regulatory fines when the likelihood of the incurrence of the related costs is probable and management has the ability to estimate such costs. Until both of these conditions are met, the related legal expenses are recorded as incurred. The material assumptions we use to estimate the amount of legal expenses include:

 

   

communication between our external attorneys and us on the expected duration of the lawsuit and the estimated expenses during that time;

 

   

our strategy regarding the lawsuit;

 

   

the deductible amounts under the insurance policies; and

 

   

past experiences with similar lawsuits.

The outcome of any particular lawsuit cannot be predicted, and if the outcome is different than expected, our income could be materially impacted, either positively or negatively.

We have from time to time set up allowances or accruals for uncertainties related to revenues and for potential unfavorable outcomes from disputes with customers or vendors. Management bases its estimates for the allowances or accruals on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances.

Accounting for stock-based compensation. We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS 123(R), “Share-Based Payment.” We must use our judgment in determining and applying the assumptions needed for the valuation of stock options, issuances under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, and stock awards. We also are required to apply a forfeiture rate to reflect what we believe will be our final expense related to stock-based compensation. The amounts to be recorded as stock-based compensation expense expected in the future are subject to change if our assumptions for the variables used in determining the fair value of the instruments and the forfeiture rates are revised. In adopting SFAS 123(R), we elected to adopt the simplified method to establish our beginning balance for the additional paid-in capital pool related to the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation. Tax shortfalls resulting from the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation in 2008 absorbed the remaining balance of the additional paid-in capital pool.

Accounting for income taxes. In preparing our consolidated financial statements we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We estimate our actual current tax expense and the temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as deferred revenue, for tax and book accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. If we believe that recovery of these deferred assets is not likely, we must establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we either establish or increase a valuation allowance in a period, we must include an expense within the tax provision in the statement of operations.

Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. We have maintained a valuation allowance of $4.0 million as of December 31, 2008 for foreign tax credits resulting from the 2003 acquisition of Best and compensation deductions potentially limited by U.S. Internal Revenue Code 162(m). If actual results differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods, we may need to establish an additional valuation allowance that could materially impact our financial position and results of operations.

Net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2008 were $60.8 million.

Significant management judgment is also required in evaluating our uncertain tax positions. Our gross unrecognized benefits total $33.8 million as of December 31, 2008. Our evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, effectively settled issues under audit, and new audit activity. If the actual settlements differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods, we may need to recognize a tax benefit or an additional tax charge that could materially impact our financial position and results of operations.

Valuation analyses of intangible assets and goodwill. We review goodwill annually in the third quarter of each year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The provisions of SFAS 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”) require that we perform a two-step impairment test on goodwill. In the first step, we compare the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. Our reporting units are consistent with our product categories identified in Note 15—Information Concerning Business Segments and Major Customers of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We determine the fair value of our reporting units based on an appropriate weighting of market and income approaches. Under the market approach, we estimate the fair value based on market multiples of revenues or earnings of comparable companies. Under the income approach, we measure any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and we are not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then we must perform the second step of the impairment testing order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference.

We assess the impairment of identifiable intangibles and long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable or that the life of the asset may need to be revised. Factors we consider important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

 

   

significant negative industry or economic trends;

 

   

significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period;

 

   

our market capitalization relative to net book value; and

 

   

significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business.

 

47


Table of Contents

When we determine that the carrying value of intangibles or long-lived assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, we measure any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. Our annual review of goodwill performed in the third quarter of 2008 indicated that there was no impairment of goodwill. We performed our annual valuation analysis of goodwill on September 30, 2008 in accordance of SFAS142 as stated above. Valuation analysis of goodwill was performed on our respective reporting units—Controller, Inkjet, and Advanced Professional Print Software using an equal weighing between the market and income approach for the Inkjet reporting unit and using the market approach for the Controller and APPS reporting units. Our reporting units are consistent with our product categories identified in Note 15—Information Concerning Business Segments and Major Customers of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Based on our valuation results, we had determined that the fair values of our reporting units continued to exceed their carrying values. Therefore, management determined that no goodwill impairment charge was required as of September 30, 2008.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, our market capitalization declined significantly as a result of declining worldwide economic conditions caused by the tightening of global credit markets. Based on a combination of factors including the recent economic environment, resulting erosion in our market capitalization, and the lowering of our 2009 revenue outlook subsequent to the third quarter of 2008, we performed an interim impairment analysis during the fourth quarter of 2008.

Based on the internal market-based valuation that we performed, the fair value of the Controller and APPS product categories significantly exceeded their carrying value as of December 31, 2008. Consequently, it was not considered necessary to obtain a third party valuation of these reporting units. A third party interim valuation was obtained with respect to the Inkjet product category, which was equally weighted between the income and market approach.

Based on the outcome of the interim impairment analysis, we concluded that an impairment had occurred resulting in a non-cash impairment charge of $111.9 million during fourth the quarter of 2008 related to both goodwill and other long-lived assets. There were no impairments of goodwill, intangible assets or other long-lived assets in 2007 and 2006.

Solely for purposes of establishing inputs for the fair value calculations described above related to goodwill impairment testing, we made the following assumptions:

 

   

the current economic downturn will continue through fiscal year 2010,

 

   

the economic downturn is partially mitigated by new product introductions in 2010,

 

   

followed by a recovery period between 2011 and 2013, and

 

   

long-term industry growth past 2013.

Our discounted cash flow projections for the Inkjet reporting unit were based on five-year financial forecasts. The five-year forecasts were based on annual financial forecasts developed internally by management for use in managing our business and through discussions with the independent valuation firm engaged by us. The significant assumptions of these five-year forecasts included annual revenue growth rates ranging from (11.0%) to 12% for the Inkjet reporting unit. The future cash flows were discounted to present value using a mid-year convention and a discount rate of 16%. Terminal values were calculated using the Gordon growth methodology with a long-term growth rate of 4.5%. The sum of the fair values of the Controllers, APPS, and Inkjet reporting units was reconciled to our current market capitalization (based on our stock price) plus an estimated control premium. The significant assumptions used in determining fair values of the reporting units using comparable company market values include the determination of appropriate market comparables, the estimated multiples of revenue, EBIT, and EBITDA that a willing buyer is likely to pay, and the estimated control premium a willing buyer is likely to pay.

Given the current economic environment and the uncertainties regarding the impact on our business, there can be no assurance that our estimates and assumptions regarding the duration of the ongoing economic downturn, or the period or strength of recovery, made for purposes of our goodwill impairment testing during the three months ended December 31, 2008 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding forecasted revenue or gross margin rates are not achieved, we may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods relating to any of our reporting units, whether in connection with the next annual impairment testing in the third quarter of 2009 or prior to that, if any such change constitutes a triggering event outside of the quarter from when the annual goodwill impairment test is performed. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

Business combinations We allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, as well as in-process research and development based on their estimated fair values. Such a valuation requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets.

Management makes estimates of fair value based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable. These estimates are based on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies. Critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets include but are not limited to: future expected cash flows; acquired developed technologies and patents; expected costs to develop the in-process research and development into commercially viable products and estimating cash flows from the projects when completed; the acquired company’s brand awareness and market position, as well as assumptions about the period of time the acquired brand will continue to be used in the combined company’s product portfolio; and discount rates. These estimates are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur which may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or other actual results.

Other estimates associated with the accounting for acquisitions include severance costs and the costs of vacating duplicate facilities. These costs are based upon estimates made by management and are subject to refinement. We estimate the future costs to operate and eventually vacate duplicate facilities. Estimated costs may change as additional information becomes available regarding the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and as management continues its assessment of the pre-merger operations.

On July 28, 2008, we acquired Pace Systems Group, Inc. (“Pace”) for approximately $20.0 million in cash plus an additional future cash earn out amount, which is contingent upon achieving certain performance targets. We acquired Pace to further strengthen our Advanced Professional Print Software reporting unit. On December 2, 2008, we acquired Raster Printers, Inc. (“Rastek”), a mid-market, wide format graphics printer developer and manufacturer, to further expand our Inkjet line of products. The Pace and Rastek acquisitions are discussed more fully in Note 2—Acquisitions of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

We apply the provisions of SFAS 141, Business Combinations, when accounting for our acquisitions. We allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, as well as in-process research and development based on their estimated fair values. All acquisitions are included in our financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Our financial projections may ultimately prove to be inaccurate and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur. Therefore, no assurance can be given that the underlying assumptions used to forecast revenues and costs to develop such projects will transpire as projected.

Determining functional currencies for the purpose of consolidating our international operations. We have a number of foreign subsidiaries which together account for approximately 46% of our net revenues, approximately 10% of our total assets and approximately 32% of our total liabilities as of December 31, 2008. We typically quote and bill our international customers in United States dollars.

 

49


Table of Contents

Based on our assessment of the factors discussed below, we consider the United States dollar to be the functional currency for each of our international subsidiaries except for our Japanese subsidiary, Electronics for Imaging Japan YK, for which we consider the Japanese Yen to be the subsidiary’s functional currency and our German subsidiary, Electronics for Imaging GmbH, for which we consider the Euro to be the subsidiary’s functional currency.

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to translate the financial statements of the foreign subsidiaries from the currency in which they keep their accounting records, generally the local currency, into United States dollars. This process results in exchange gains and losses which, when the transactions are not denominated in the functional currency, are included within the statement of operations or, if the transactions are denominated in the functional currency, are included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity under the caption “Accumulated other comprehensive income.”

Overview

Cash and cash equivalents and short term investments decreased $310.5 million to $189.4 million as of December 31, 2008 from $499.9 million as of December 31, 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the redemption on June 2, 2008 of our 1.50% convertible senior debentures of $240.0 million, repurchases of our common stock and net settlement of restricted stock units of $65.2 million, and costs associated with purchases of Pace and Raster of $25.3 million offset by cash generated by operations of $27.8 million.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities in 2008, 2007 and 2006 of $27.8 million, $69.6 million, and $67.0 million, respectively, was primarily the result of net income (loss) adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization, acquired in-process research and development, deferred income taxes, stock-based compensation, other non-cash charges and credits, and changes in various assets and liabilities such as accounts payable, accounts receivable, inventories, and other current assets.

Our historical and primary source of operating cash flow is the collection of accounts receivable from our customers and the timing of payments to our vendors and service providers. One measure of the effectiveness of our collection efforts is average days sales outstanding (“DSO”) for accounts receivable. DSOs were 66 days, 62 days, and 58 days at December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 respectively. We calculate accounts receivable DSO by dividing the net accounts receivable balance at the end of the quarter by the amount of revenue recognized for the quarter multiplied by the total days in the quarter. The increase in DSOs is due to the linearity of revenues in the second half of 2008. Our DSOs related to direct sales are traditionally higher than those related to OEM customers. We expect DSOs to vary from period to period because of changes in quarterly mix of business between our direct and OEM customers, and the effectiveness of our collection efforts. As the percentage of our APPS and Inkjet related revenue increases, we expect DSOs may trend higher.

 

50


Table of Contents

Our operating cash flows are impacted by the timing of payments to our vendors for accounts payable and by our accrual of liabilities. In 2008, the change in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and income taxes payable decreased our cash flows by approximately $4.4 million compared to a increase in cash flows in 2007 of $1.6 million. Our working capital, defined as current assets minus current liabilities, was $293.8 million and $270.7 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

We expect to meet our obligations as they become due through available cash and internally generated funds. We expect to generate positive working capital through our operations. However, we cannot predict whether current trends and conditions will continue, or the effect on our business from the competitive environment in which we operate. We believe the working capital available to us will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Acquisitions

Below is a summary of our acquisitions for the last three fiscal years:

Raster Printers, Inc. (“Rastek”): On December 2, 2008, we acquired the remaining interest of Rastek for approximately $5.3 million in cash, including direct acquisition costs plus an additional future earn out amount, which is contingent upon achieving certain performance targets. The maximum additional earn-out is $1.7 million. Headquartered in San Jose, California, Rastek sells UV wide format printers primarily to mid-range customers in the display graphics market.

Pace Systems Group, Inc (“Pace”): On July 28, 2008, we purchased Pace for approximately $20.0 million in cash, including direct acquisition costs, plus an additional cash earn-out amount, which is contingent upon achieving certain performance targets. Pace is a print management software company that provides print MIS and e-commerce software solutions.

Jetrion LLC (“Jetrion”): On October 31, 2006, we purchased Jetrion for approximately $41.4 million in cash. Jetrion sells industrial inkjet printers and inks to label printing companies.

We may buy or invest in companies, products and technologies within the print industry. Our available cash and equity may be used to acquire or invest in companies or products, possibly resulting in significant acquisition-related charges to earnings and dilution to our stockholders.

Inventories

Our inventories are procured primarily in support of the Inkjet and Controller product categories. Our inventories increased from $39.9 million in 2007 to $48.9 million in 2008. This increase consisted primarily of finished goods driven by the Rastek acquisition, 2008 new product introductions and inventories required for new product introductions in future periods.

Property and Equipment

Our net property and equipment purchases totaled $11.6 million, $13.3 million, and $9.3 million in 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively. Our property and equipment additions have been funded by cash from operations.

We anticipate that we will continue to purchase property and equipment necessary in the normal course of our business. The amount and timing of these purchases and the related cash outflows in future periods is difficult to predict and is dependent on a number of factors including our hiring of employees, the rate of change in computer hardware/software used in our business, our business outlook, and decisions to invest or expand business sites.

On January 29, 2009, we completed the sale of land and building to Gilead for a total price of $137.5 million, subject to an escrow holdback of $15.5 million. The escrow period expires January 2010. The property sold included approximately thirty acres of land and the office building located on the land at 301 Velocity Way, Foster City, California, consisting of approximately 163,000 square feet and certain other assets related to the property.

Investments

During 2008, we received net proceeds from the sale and maturities of our marketable securities of $291.2 million, of which $240.0 million was used to repay the 1.50% convertible senior debenture holders. During 2007, we received net proceeds from the sale and maturities of our marketable securities of $11.9 million. We made net purchases of marketable securities in 2006 of $52.1 million. We have classified our investment portfolio as “available for sale,” and our investments are made with a policy of capital preservation and liquidity as the primary objectives. We generally hold investments in corporate bonds and U. S. government agency securities to maturity; however, we may sell an investment at any time if the quality rating of the investment declines, the yield on the investment is no longer attractive or we are in need of cash. Because we invest primarily in investment securities that are highly liquid with a ready market, we believe that the purchase, maturity or sale of our investments has no material impact on our overall liquidity.

Restricted Investments

We have restricted investments classified in connection with the synthetic lease for our Foster City office. We are required to maintain cash in LIBOR-based interest-bearing accounts which fully collateralize our synthetic leases. We had $88.6 million in collateral accounted for as restricted investments at December 31, 2008 and 2007. At December 31, 2008, $56.9 million of the $88.6 million was accounted for as a non-current asset as restricted investments. The remaining $31.7 million was accounted for as a current asset under Assets Held For Sale related to the sale of a portion of our Foster City offices and accompanying real estate to Gilead. For further information on these transactions, see the discussion at “Off-Balance Sheet Financing” herein and Note 13—Sale of Land and Building of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2008.

Financing Activities

Historically, our recurring cash flows provided by financing activities have been from the receipt of cash from the issuance of common stock from the exercise of stock options and employee stock purchase plans. We

Table of Contents

received cash proceeds from these plans in the amount of $7.3 million, $4.8 million, and $42.3 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. While we may continue to receive proceeds from these plans in future periods, the timing and amount of such proceeds are difficult to predict and are contingent on a number of factors including the price of our common stock, the number of employees participating in the plans and general market conditions. We anticipate that cash provided from exercise of stock options may decline over time as we shift to issuance of restricted stock awards and units rather than stock option awards.

The primary use of funds for financing activities in 2008, 2007, and 2006 was the use of $65.2 million, $70.3 million, and $33.9 million, respectively, of cash to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock. See Item 5—Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities for further discussion of our programs to repurchase our common stock.

The synthetic lease agreements for our corporate headquarters existing at December 31, 2008 provided for residual value guarantees. Under FASB Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others,” the fair value of a residual value guarantee in lease agreements entered into after December 31, 2002, must be recognized as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet. We have determined that the guarantees have no material value as of December 31, 2008 and therefore have not recorded any liability.

On June 2, 2008, we exercised our option to redeem and paid in cash the outstanding balance of our 1.50% convertible senior debentures, which totaled $240 million. The redemption price for the securities was 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest amounts to but not including the redemption date. Accrued and unpaid interest expense up to June 1, 2008 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 totaled $0.6 million.

Other Commitments

Our inventory for our controller line of products consists primarily of raw and finished goods, memory subsystems, processors and ASICs which are sold to third-party contract manufacturers responsible for manufacturing our products. Our inventory for our inkjet line of products consists of raw and finished goods, printheads, frames and other components. Should we decide to purchase components and do our own manufacturing of controllers, or should it become necessary for us to purchase and sell components other than the processors, ASICs or memory subsystems for our contract manufacturers, inventory balances and potentially property and equipment would increase significantly, thereby reducing our available cash resources. Further, the inventory we carry could become obsolete, thereby negatively impacting our financial condition and results of operations. We are also reliant on several sole-source suppliers for certain key components and could experience a further significant negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations if such supply were reduced or not available.

We may be required to compensate our sub-contract manufacturers for components purchased for orders subsequently cancelled by us. We periodically review the potential liability and the adequacy of the related allowance. Our financial condition and results of operations could be negatively impacted if we were required to compensate the sub-contract manufacturers in amounts in excess of the related allowance.

Legal Proceedings

In addition to the matters discussed under Item 3, Legal Proceedings, we are involved from time to time in litigation relating to claims arising in the normal course of our business.

Contractual Obligations

The following table summarizes our significant contractual obligations at December 31, 2008 and the effect such obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods. This table excludes amounts already recorded on our balance sheet as current liabilities at December 31, 2008.

(1)

Lease obligations related to the principal corporate facilities are estimated and are based on current market interest rates (LIBOR). See Off-Balance Sheet Financing.

(2)

Total does not include contractual obligations recorded on the balance sheet as current liabilities, or certain purchase orders as discussed below.

In January, 2009, we sold the 163,000 square foot building and approximately 30 acres of land in our Foster City, California campus to Gilead. As a result, total operating lease obligations for 2009 and beyond will decrease by approximately $5.8 million. Purchase obligations in the table above include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on us and that specify all significant terms, including: fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. Purchase obligations exclude purchase orders for the purchase of raw materials and other goods and services that are cancelable without penalty. Our purchase orders are based on our current manufacturing needs and are generally fulfilled by our vendors within short time horizons. We also enter into contracts for outsourced services; however the obligations under these contracts were not significant and the contracts generally contain clauses allowing for cancellation without significant penalty.

The expected timing of payment of the obligations discussed above is estimated based on current information. Timing of payments and actual amounts paid may be different depending on the time of receipt of goods or services or changes to agreed-upon amounts for some obligations.

The above table does not reflect unrecognized tax benefits of $33.8 million, the timing of which is uncertain. See Note 11—Income Taxes of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion on unrecognized tax benefits.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing

Synthetic Lease Arrangements

As of December 31, 2008 we were a party to two synthetic leases (the “301 Lease” and the “303 Lease”, together “Leases”) covering our Foster City facilities located at 301 and 303 Velocity Way, Foster City, California. These leases provided a cost effective means of providing adequate office space for our corporate offices. Both Leases expire in July 2014. The leases included an option to purchase the facilities during or at the end of the term of the Leases for the amount expended by the lessor to purchase the facilities. The funds pledged under the Leases ($56.9 million for the 303 Lease and $31.7 million for the 301 Lease at December 31, 2008 for a total of $88.6 million) are in LIBOR-based interest bearing accounts and are restricted as to withdrawal at all times. We have exercised our purchase option in the first quarter of 2009 with respect to the 301 Lease in connection with the sale of the land and building to Gilead. Accordingly, the $31.7 million of pledged funds have been re-classified as Assets Held for Sale under current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2008.

On January 29, 2009, we completed the sale of land and building to Gilead for a total price of $137.5 million, subject to an escrow holdback of $15.5 million. The escrow period expires January 2010. The property sold

Table of Contents

included approximately thirty acres of land and the office building located on the land at 301 Velocity Way, Foster City, California, consisting of approximately 163,000 square feet and certain other assets related to the property.

We have guaranteed to the lessor a residual value associated with the buildings equal to 82% of their funding of the respective Leases. Under the financial covenants, we must maintain a minimum net worth and a minimum tangible net worth as of the end of each quarter. There is an additional covenant regarding mergers. We were in compliance with all such financial and merger related covenants as of December 31, 2008. We have assessed our exposure in relation to the first loss guarantees under the Leases and have determined that there is no deficiency to the guaranteed value at December 31, 2008. If there is a decline in value, we will record a loss associated with the residual value guarantee. In conjunction with the Leases, we have entered into separate ground leases with the lessor for approximately 30 years. As of December 31, 2008, we were treated as the owner of these buildings for federal income tax purposes. Since we exercised our purchase option with respect to the 301 Lease, our maximum exposure under our remaining synthetic lease arrangement is $56.9 million as of January 29, 2009.

Effective July 1, 2003, we applied the accounting and disclosure rules set forth in Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, as revised (“FIN 46R”) for variable interest entities (“VIEs”). We have evaluated our synthetic lease agreements to determine if the arrangements qualify as variable interest entities under FIN 46R. We have determined that the synthetic lease agreements do qualify as VIEs; however, because we are not the primary beneficiary under FIN 46R we are not required to consolidate the VIEs in our financial statements.

Item 7A: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market Risk

We are exposed to various market risks. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, general credit, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuation, liquidity, and interest rate risks, which may be exacerbated by the tightening of global credit markets and increase in economic uncertainty that have affected various sectors of the financial markets and caused credit and liquidity issues. We do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We may enter into financial instrument contracts to manage and reduce the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The counterparties to such contracts are major financial institutions.

Interest Rate Risk

Marketable Securities

We maintain an investment portfolio of short-term investments of various holdings, types and maturities. These short-term investments are generally classified as available–for-sale and consequently, are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). At any time, a sharp rise in interest rates could have a material adverse impact on the fair value of our investment portfolio. Conversely, declines in interest rates could have a material impact on interest earnings for our portfolio. We do not currently hedge these interest rate exposures.

The following table presents the hypothetical change in fair values in the financial instruments held by us at December 31, 2008 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The modeling technique used measures the change in fair values arising from selected potential changes in interest rates. Market changes reflect immediate hypothetical parallel shifts in the yield curve of plus or minus 100 basis points over a twelve-month time horizon.

Financial Risk Management

The following discussion about our risk management activities includes “forward-looking statements” that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

As a global concern, we face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve and could have a material adverse impact on our financial results. Our primary exposures are related to non-U.S. dollar-denominated sales in Japan and Europe and operating expenses in Europe, India and Japan. At the present time, we do not hedge against these currency exposures, but as these exposures grow we may consider hedging against currency movements.

We maintain investment portfolio holdings of various issuers, types and maturities, typically U.S. Treasury and Agencies securities, corporate debt instruments, and asset-backed instruments. These short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale and consequently are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). These securities are not leveraged and are held for purposes other than trading.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Electronics For Imaging, Inc.:

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(1) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Electronics For Imaging, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements and financial statement schedule, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedule, and on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

As discussed in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for uncertainty in income taxes in 2007.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our integrated solutions and award-winning technologies are designed to automate print and business processes, streamline workflow, provide profitable value-added services and produce accurate digital output.

Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EFI and our subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, purchase commitments, revenue recognition and contingencies on an on-going basis. The estimates are based upon historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time of the estimate, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments

We invest our excess cash in deposits with major banks; money market securities; and municipal, U.S. government and corporate debt securities. By policy, we invest primarily in high-grade marketable securities. We are exposed to credit risk in the event of default by the financial institutions or issuers of these investments to the extent of amounts recorded on the consolidated balance sheet.

We consider all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Typically, the cost of these investments has approximated fair value. Marketable investments with a maturity greater than 3 months are classified as available-for-sale short-term investments. Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair market value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, adjusted for deferred income taxes. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are recognized upon sale of the investments using the specific identification method.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Sales-related Allowances

We analyze accounts receivable and historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, we specifically reserve for any accounts receivable for which there are identified collection issues. Balances are charged off when we deem it probable the receivable will not be recovered. We also make provisions for sales rebates and revenue adjustments based upon analysis of current sales programs and revenues.

Concentration of Risk

We are exposed to credit risk in the event of default by any of our customers to the extent of amounts recorded in the consolidated balance sheet. We perform ongoing evaluations of the collectability of the accounts receivable balances for our customers and maintain allowances for estimated credit losses; actual losses have not historically been significant, but have risen over the past several years as our customer base has grown through acquisitions.

Our controller products, which constitute approximately 50% of our revenues, are primarily sold to a limited number of OEMs. We expect that we will continue to depend on a relatively small number of OEM customers for a significant portion of our revenues, although the significance of that revenue is expected to decline in future periods as our revenues increase from Inkjet products.

We are reliant on certain sole source suppliers for key components of our products. We conduct our business with our component suppliers solely on a purchase order basis. Any disruption in the supply of the key components would result in us being unable to manufacture our products.

Many of our current controllers include software that we license from Adobe Systems, Inc. (“Adobe”). In order to obtain licenses from Adobe, Adobe requires that we obtain from them quality assurance approvals for our products that use Adobe software. Although to date we have successfully obtained such quality assurances from Adobe, we cannot be certain Adobe will grant us such approvals in the future. If Adobe does not grant us such licenses or approvals, if the Adobe licenses are terminated, or if our relationship with Adobe is otherwise materially impaired, we would likely be unable to produce products that incorporate Adobe PostScript® software.

We subcontract with other companies to manufacture our controllers. We rely on the ability of our sub-contractors to produce the products sold to our customers. A high concentration of our products is manufactured at one sub-contractor location. If the sub-contractor was to lose production capabilities at this facility, we would experience delays in delivering product to our customers. We do not maintain long-term agreements with our sub-contractors which could lead to an inability of such sub-contractor to fill our orders.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at standard cost, which approximates the lower of actual cost using a first-in, first-out method, or market. We periodically review our inventories for potential slow-moving or obsolete items and write down specific items to net realizable value as appropriate. Work-in-process inventories consist of our product at various levels of assembly and include materials, labor and manufacturing overhead. Finished goods inventory represents completed products awaiting shipment.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation on assets is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated life for desktop and laptop computers is 18 to 24 months. Furniture has an estimated life of 5 to 7 years, software is amortized over 3 to 5 years and buildings have an estimated life of 40 years. All other assets are typically considered to have a 3 to 5 year life. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the improvements or the lease term, if shorter. Land improvements, such as parking lots and sidewalks, are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

When assets are disposed, we remove the asset and accumulated depreciation from our records and recognize the related gain or loss in results of operations. The cost and related accumulated depreciation applicable to property and equipment sold or no longer in service are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in other income and expense.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

 

Depreciation expense was $11.4 million, $9.5 million and $8.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Repairs and maintenance expenditures which are not considered improvements and do not extend the useful life of property and equipment are expensed as incurred.

Internal Use Software

We follow the guidance in Statement of Position 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. Software development costs, including costs incurred to purchase third party software, are capitalized beginning when we have determined that certain factors are present, including among others, that technology exists to achieve the performance requirements. The accumulation of software costs to be capitalized ceases when the software is substantially developed and is ready for its intended use. It is amortized over an estimated useful life of three years using the straight-line method.

Restricted Investments

As of December 31, 2008, we were a party to two synthetic leases (the “301 Lease” and the “303 Lease”, together “Leases”) covering our Foster City facilities located at 301 and 303 Velocity Way, Foster City, California. The Leases included an option to purchase the facilities during or at the end of the term of the Leases for the amount expended by the lessor to purchase the facilities ($56.9 million for the 303 Lease and $31.7 million for the 301 Lease). The funds pledged under the Leases ($56.9 million for the 303 Lease and $31.7 million for the 301 Lease at December 31, 2007 for a total of $88.6 million) are in LIBOR-based interest bearing accounts and are restricted as to withdrawal at all times. We exercised our purchase option in the first quarter of 2009 with respect to the 301 Lease, in connection with the sale of the land and building to Gilead. Accordingly, the $31.7 million of pledged funds have been re-classified as Assets Held for Sale under current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2008.

Goodwill

We review goodwill annually in the third quarter of each year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”) prohibits the amortization of goodwill and requires that we perform a two-step impairment test on goodwill. In the first step, we compare the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. Our reporting units are consistent with our product categories identified in Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We determine the fair value of our reporting units based on a weighting of market and income approaches. Under the market approach, we estimate the fair value based on market multiples of revenues or earnings of comparable companies. Under the income approach, we measure any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and we are not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then we must perform the second step of the impairment testing to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference. There was no impairment of goodwill in 2007 and 2006.

Based on a combination of factors including the current economic environment, the resulting erosion in our market capitalization, and the lowering of our 2009 revenue outlook subsequent to the end of the third quarter, we concluded that there were sufficient indicators to require the Company to perform an interim impairment

analysis in the fourth quarter of 2008. Based on the outcome of our interim impairment analysis, we concluded that an impairment had occurred; resulting in a non-cash impairment charge of $104 million during the fourth quarter of 2008. Please see Note 4—Goodwill and Long-Lived Asset Impairment of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Long-lived Assets, including Intangible Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. We evaluate potential impairment with respect to long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment based on their estimated future undiscounted cash flows. Based on this analysis, no impairment of intangible assets, excluding goodwill, was recognized in 2008, 2007, or 2006.

Intangible assets acquired to date are being amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 1 to 30 years. No changes have been made to the useful lives of amortizable identifiable intangible assets in 2008, 2007 or 2006. Intangible amortization expense was $29.4 million, $33.5 million and $35.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Other investments consist of equity and debt investments in privately-held companies that develop products, markets and services that are strategic to us. Investments in which we exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, but do not have a majority voting interest are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Our investments accounted for using the equity method of accounting totaled $0.3 million and $4.7 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Our consolidated results of operations include, as a component of other income, our share of the net income or loss of the equity method investments. Our share of the results of investees’ results of operations is not significant for any period presented.

On December 2, 2008, we acquired the remaining interest of Raster. As a result, Raster is consolidated in our financial statements as of December 2, 2008, and is no longer included in Other investments.

The process of assessing whether a particular equity investment’s fair value is less than its carrying cost requires a significant amount of judgment due to the lack of a mature and stable public market for these securities. In making this judgment, we carefully consider the investee’s most recent financial results, cash position, recent cash flow data, projected cash flows (both short and long-term), financing needs, recent financing rounds, most recent valuation data, the current investing environment, management or ownership changes, and competition. This process is based primarily on information that we request and receive from these privately-held companies, and is performed on a quarterly basis. Although we evaluate all of our privately-held equity investments for impairment based on the criteria established above, each investment’s fair value is only estimated when events or changes in circumstances have occurred that may have a significant effect on its fair value (because the fair value of each investment is not readily determinable). Where these factors indicate that the equity investment’s fair value is less than its carrying cost, and where we consider such diminution in value to be other than temporary, we record an impairment charge to reduce such equity investment to its estimated net realizable value.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, EFI assessed each remaining investment’s R&D technology pipeline and market conditions for the next several years in the industry and determined that it is no longer probable that they will generate enough positive future cash flows to recover the full carrying amount of the investment. Please refer to the preceding paragraph for a full discussion of the factors considered. As such, we recognized an impairment charge of $7.9 million.

Please refer to Note 4—Goodwill and Long-Lived Asset Impairment of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, including cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted investments, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, approximate their respective fair market values due to the short maturities of these financial instruments. The fair value of our available-for-sale securities is disclosed in Note 5—Short-term Investments. On June 2, 2008, we redeemed the outstanding balance of our 1.50% convertible senior debentures, which totaled $240.0 million.

Warranty

Our products are generally accompanied by a 12-month warranty, which covers both parts and labor. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies” (“SFAS 5”), an accrual is made when it is estimable and probable based upon historical experience. A provision for estimated future warranty work is recorded in cost of goods sold upon recognition of revenue and the resulting accrual is reviewed regularly and periodically adjusted to reflect changes in warranty work estimates.

Research and Development

We expense costs associated with the research and development of new software products as incurred until technological feasibility is established. Research and development costs include salaries and benefits of researchers, supplies and other expenses incurred with research and development efforts. To date we have not capitalized research and development costs associated with software development as products and enhancements have generally reached technological feasibility and have been released for sale at substantially the same time.

Revenue Recognition

We derive our revenue primarily from product revenue, which includes hardware (controllers, design-licensed solutions, and inkjet printers), ink, software and royalties. We also receive services and support revenue from software license maintenance agreements, customer support and training and consulting. As described below, significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in any accounting period. Material differences could result in the amount and timing of our revenue for any period if our management made different judgments or utilized different estimates.

We recognize revenue in accordance with the provisions of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB104”) and, when applicable, Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” (“EITF 00-21”), for the sale of controllers, printers, and ink. As such, revenue is generally recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered or services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

We use either a purchase order or signed contract as evidence of an arrangement. Sales through some of our OEMs are evidenced by a master agreement governing the relationship together with purchase orders on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Our arrangements do not generally include acceptance clauses. Delivery for hardware generally is complete when title and risk of loss is transferred at point of shipment from manufacturing facilities. In some instances, we also sell products and services in which the terms included in sales arrangements result in different timing for revenue recognition. We assess whether the fee is fixed or determinable based on the terms of the contract or purchase order. We assess collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the credit-worthiness of the customer. We may not request collateral from our customers. If we determine that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, we defer the fee and recognize revenue at the time collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash.

We license our software primarily under perpetual licenses. Revenue from software consists of software licensing, post-contract customer support and professional consulting. We apply the provisions of Statement of Position 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP 97-2”), as amended by Statement of Position 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions”, (“SOP 98-9”) and if applicable, SAB 104 and EITF 00-21 to all transactions involving the sale of software products and hardware transactions where the software is not incidental.

When several elements, including software licenses, post-contract customer support and professional services, are sold to a customer through a single contract, the revenue from such multiple-element arrangements are allocated to each element using the residual method in accordance with SOP 98-9. Revenue is allocated to the support elements and professional service elements of an agreement using vendor specific objective evidence of fair value (“VSOE”) and to the software license portion of the agreements using the residual method. We have established VSOE of the fair value of our professional services based on the rates charged to our customers in stand alone orders. We have also established VSOE of fair value for post-contract customer support based on substantive renewal rates. Accordingly, software license fees are recognized under the residual method for arrangements in which the software is licensed with maintenance and/or professional services, and where the maintenance and professional services are not essential to the functionality of the delivered software. Revenue allocated to software licenses is recognized when the following four basic criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. Revenue allocated to post-contract support is recognized ratably over the term of the support contract assuming the four basic criteria are met. We also have subscription arrangements where the customer pays a fixed fee and receives services over a period of time. We recognize revenue from the subscriptions ratably over the service period. Any upfront setup fees associated with our subscription arrangements are recognized ratably, generally over one year.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total advertising and promotional expenses were $4.9 million for 2008, $6.3 million for 2007 and $4.4 million for 2006.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS 109), “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under SFAS 109, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

Business Combinations

We apply the provisions of SFAS 141, Business Combinations, when accounting for our acquisitions. We allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, as well as in-process research and development based on their estimated fair values. All acquisitions are included in our financial statements from the date of acquisition.

On July 28, 2008, we acquired Pace Systems Group, Inc. (“Pace”) to strengthen our APPS product category. On December 2 2008, we acquired Raster Printers, Inc.(“Raster”) a mid-market, wide format graphics printer developer and manufacturer, to further expand our Inkjet line of products. The Pace and Raster acquisitions are discussed in Note 2—Acquisitions to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R) “Share-Based Payment (Revised 2004)” (“SFAS 123(R)”), using the modified prospective transition method. Under this transition method, stock-based compensation expense in fiscal 2008, 2007 and 2006 includes compensation expense for all share-based payment awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of, January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123. Stock-based compensation expense for all share-based payment awards granted after January 1, 2006 is based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). We recognize these compensation costs using a graded-vesting method over the requisite service period. SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised on a cumulative basis, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. We use historical data and future expectations of employee turnover to estimate forfeitures. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), we presented the tax benefit related to stock plans as operating cash flows. Upon the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the tax benefit resulting from tax deductions in excess of the tax benefit related to compensation cost recognized for those awards are classified as financing cash flows.

On November 10, 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. SFAS 123(R)-3 “Transition Election Related to Accounting for Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards.” We have elected to adopt the alternative transition method provided in the FASB Staff Position for calculating the tax effects of share-based compensation pursuant to SFAS 123(R). The alternative transition method included a simplified method to establish the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool related to the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation, which is available to absorb tax deficiencies recognized subsequent to the adoption of SFAS 123(R). This method resulted in an additional paid-in capital pool of zero as part of our adoption of SFAS 123(R).

Periods prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R)

Prior to January 1, 2006 we accounted for equity awards and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB 25 and related interpretations. Under the intrinsic value method, stock-based compensation expense was recognized in our consolidated statement of operations if the exercise price of our equity awards granted to employees and directors was below the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant or if shares granted under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan were issued at greater than a 15% discount.

Foreign Currency Translation

The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for all of our foreign operations, except for our Germany subsidiary, for which the Euro is the functional currency, and our Japanese subsidiary, for which the Japanese yen is the functional currency. Where the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, translation adjustments are recorded in income. Where a currency other than the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Computation of Net (Loss) Income per Common Share

Net (loss) income per basic common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period excluding unvested restricted stock. Net income (loss) per diluted common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding common stock options having a dilutive effect using the treasury stock method, from unvested shares of restricted stock using

the treasury stock method and from the potential conversion of our 1.50% convertible senior debentures. In addition, in computing the dilutive effect of the convertible securities, the numerator is adjusted to add back the after-tax amount of interest and amortized debt-issuance costs recognized in the period associated with our convertible senior debentures. Any potential shares that are anti-dilutive, as defined in SFAS 128, are excluded from the effect of dilutive securities.

Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Risk Management

SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, as amended, requires companies to reflect the fair value of all derivative instruments, including those embedded in other contracts, as assets or liabilities in an entity’s balance sheet. We have no derivative or hedging instruments as of December 31, 2008.

Variable Interest Entities

FASB Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, as amended (“FIN 46R”) requires that we consolidate any variable interest entities, or VIE, in which we are the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is generally defined as having the majority of the risks and rewards arising from the VIE. We have evaluated and will continue to assess our synthetic lease arrangements and other entities that we have a relationship with that may be deemed a VIE. See Note 8 for discussion of our synthetic lease arrangements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141 (revised 2007) Business Combinations (“SFAS No. 141R”) which replaces SFAS No. 141 Business Combinations (“SFAS No. 141”). SFAS No. 141R retains the fundamental requirement of SFAS No. 141 that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. However, SFAS No. 141R provides for the following changes from SFAS No. 141: an acquirer will record 100% of assets and liabilities of acquired business, including goodwill, at fair value, regardless of the level of interest acquired; certain contingent assets and liabilities will be recognized at fair value at the acquisition date; contingent consideration will be recognized at fair value on the acquisition date with changes in fair value to be recognized in earnings upon settlement; acquisition-related transaction and restructuring costs will be expensed as incurred; reversals of valuation allowances related to acquired deferred tax assets and changes to acquired income tax uncertainties will be recognized in earnings; and when making adjustments to finalize preliminary accounting, acquirers will revise any previously issued post-acquisition financial information in future financial statements to reflect any adjustments as if they occurred on the acquisition date. SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. SFAS No. 141R may have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements when effective in the event a business combination occurs. The nature and magnitude of the specific effects will depend upon the nature, terms, and size of the acquisitions consummated after the effective date.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS No. 160”), which establishes accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 provides that accounting and reporting for minority interests be recharacterized as non-controlling interests and classified as a component of equity. This statement also establishes reporting requirements that provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. SFAS No. 160 applies to all entities that prepare consolidated financial statements but will affect only those entities that have an outstanding non-controlling interest in one or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. This statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. Currently, we do not have any non-controlling interests (ownership interests in a subsidiary that are held by owners other than us) recorded in our financial statements, and do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 160 to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position (“FSP”) 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (“FSP 142-3”). FSP 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” FSP 142-3 applies to intangible assets that are acquired, individually or with a group of other assets, after the effective date in either a business combination or asset acquisition. FSP 142-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is prohibited. We are currently evaluating the effect FSP 142-3 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2008, the FASB issued “FSP 157-3”, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active”. In this FSP, the FASB clarified the application of FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active such as including appropriate risk adjustments that market participants would make for nonperformance and liquidity risks. FSP 157-3 is effective upon its issuance on October 10, 2008, including prior periods for which financial statements have not been issued. We have adopted FSP 157-3 accordingly for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

Note 2: Acquisitions

During 2008, we acquired Raster and Pace. We acquired Jetrion LLC (“Jetrion”) during 2006. The purchase method of accounting has been used for these acquisitions. Under this method of accounting, the purchase consideration is allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed according to their respective fair values on the date of acquisition. The excess purchase consideration is recorded as goodwill. Factors that contribute to a purchase price that results in goodwill include, but are not limited to, the retention of research and development personnel with the skills to develop future technology, support personnel to provide maintenance services related to the products, a trained sales force capable of selling current and future products, the opportunity to cross-sell Rastek, Pace, Jetrion, and EFI products to existing customers and the positive reputation that each of these companies have in the market.

Valuation Methodology

Intangible assets acquired consist of developed technology, in-process research & development (IPR&D), patents, trademarks and trade names and customer relationships. The amount allocated to IPR&D was determined using established valuation techniques and was expensed upon acquisition because technological feasibility had not been established and no future alternative uses existed. The value of IPR&D was determined by estimating the costs to develop the purchased IPR&D into a commercially viable product, estimating the resulting net cash flows from the sale of the products resulting from the completion of the IPR&D and discounting the net cash flows back to their present value. Project completion schedules were based on management’s estimate of tasks completed and the tasks to be completed to bring the project to technical and

commercial feasibility. IPR&D was included in operating expenses as part of other acquisition-related charges. We expensed IPR&D of $0.7 million related to our acquisition of Raster and $2.0 million related to our acquisition of Pace during 2008. We expensed IPR&D of $8.5 million related to our acquisition of Jetrion during 2006.

Raster Printers, Inc.

On December 2, 2008, we acquired the remaining interest in Rastek for approximately $5.3 million, including direct acquisition costs, plus an additional earn out amount which is contingent upon achieving certain performance targets. The maximum additional earn-out is $1.7 million. Headquartered in San Jose, California, Raster sells UV wide format printers primarily to mid-range customers in the display graphics market. Adjustments to the purchase price allocation may be made during 2009.

Pace Systems Group, Inc

On July 28, 2008, we acquired 100% interest of Pace for approximately $20.1 million in cash including direct acquisition costs plus an additional future cash earn out amount which is contingent upon achieving certain performance targets. The maximum additional earn-outs is $9.0 million. Headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, Pace is a print management software company that provides MIS and e-commerce software solutions. Adjustments to the purchase price allocation may be made during 2009.

Jetrion LLC

On October 31, 2006 we acquired Jetrion for approximately $41.4 million in cash. No adjustments were made to the purchase price allocation during 2007 and 2008.

We perform our annual impairment analysis of goodwill in the third quarter of each year according to the provisions of SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”). The provision requires that we perform a two-step impairment test on goodwill. In the first step, we compare the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and we are not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then we must perform the second step of the impairment testing to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is calculated by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets of the reporting unit, excluding goodwill, from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in the first step. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference.

We performed our annual valuation analysis of goodwill on September 30, 2008 in accordance with SFAS142 as stated above. The goodwill valuation analysis was performed based on our respective reporting units—Controller, Inkjet, and Advanced Professional Print Software. Our reporting units are consistent with our product categories identified in Note 15 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Our product categories meet

 

75


Table of Contents

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

 

the definition of a reporting unit one level below an operating segment in accordance with SFAS 142 as each product category constitute a business for which discrete financial information is available and reviewed by segment management.

We determined the fair value of the Inkjet reporting unit based on the weighting of market and income approaches. The fair value of the Controller and APPS reporting units was determined based on the market approach. Under the market approach, we estimated the fair value based on market multiples of revenues or earnings. Under the income approach, we measured fair value of the reporting units based on a projected cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management which is commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. Based on our valuation results, we had determined that the fair values of our reporting units continued to exceed their carrying values. Therefore, management determined that no goodwill impairment charge was required as of September 30, 2008.

We assess the impairment of identifiable intangibles and long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable or that the life of the asset may need to be revised. Factors we consider important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

 

   

significant negative industry or economic trends;

 

   

significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period;

 

   

our market capitalization relative to net book value; and

 

   

significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business.

When we determine that the carrying value of intangibles or long-lived assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, we measure the potential impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. Our annual review of goodwill performed in the third quarter of 2008 indicated that there was no impairment of goodwill. We performed our annual valuation analysis of goodwill on September 30, 2008 in accordance with SFAS142 as stated above.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, our market capitalization declined significantly as a result of declining worldwide economic conditions caused by the tightening of global credit markets. Based on a combination of factors including the recent economic environment, the resulting erosion in our market capitalization, and the lowering of our 2009 revenue outlook subsequent to the third quarter of 2008, we performed an interim impairment analysis during the fourth quarter of 2008.

Based on the internal market-based valuation that we performed, the fair value of the Controller and APPS product categories significantly exceeded their carrying value as of December 31, 2008. Consequently, it was not considered necessary to obtain a third party valuation of these reporting units. A third party interim valuation was obtained with respect to the Inkjet product category, which was equally weighted between the income and market approach.

Based on the outcome of the interim impairment analysis, we concluded that an impairment had occurred relating to the Inkjet product category resulting in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $104 million during the fourth quarter of 2008. There were no impairments of goodwill, intangible assets or long lived assets in 2007 and 2006.

Solely for purposes of establishing inputs for the fair value calculations described above related to goodwill impairment testing, we made the following assumptions:

 

   

the current economic downturn will continue through fiscal year 2010,

 

76


Table of Contents

Electronics For Imaging, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

 

   

the economic downturn is partially mitigated by new product introductions in 2010,

 

   

followed by a recovery period between 2011 and 2013, and

 

   

long-term industry growth past 2013.

Our discounted cash flow projections for the Inkjet reporting unit were based on five-year financial forecasts. The five-year forecasts were based on annual financial forecasts developed internally by management for use in managing our business and through discussions with the independent valuation firm engaged by us. The significant assumptions of these five-year forecasts included annual revenue growth rates ranging from (11.0%) to 12% for the Inkjet reporting unit. The future cash flows were discounted to present value using a mid-year convention and a discount rate of 16%. Terminal values were calculated using the Gordon growth methodology with a long-term growth rate of 4.5%. The sum of the fair values of the Controllers, APPS, and Inkjet reporting units was reconciled to our current market capitalization (based on our stock price) plus an estimated control premium. The significant assumptions used in determining fair values of the reporting units using comparable company market values include the determination of appropriate market comparables, the estimated multiples of revenue, EBIT, and EBITDA that a willing buyer is likely to pay, and the estimated control premium a willing buyer is likely to pay.

Given the current economic environment and the uncertainties regarding the impact on our business, there can be no assurance that our estimates and assumptions regarding the duration of the ongoing economic downturn, or the period or strength of recovery, made for purposes of our goodwill impairment testing during the three months ended December 31, 2008 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding forecasted revenue or gross margin rates are not achieved, we may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods relating to any of our reporting units, whether in connection with the next annual impairment testing in the third quarter of 2009 or prior to that, if any such change constitutes a triggering event outside of the quarter from when the annual goodwill impairment test is performed. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

Other investments consist of equity and debt investments in privately-held companies that develop products, markets and services that are strategic to us. Investments in which we exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, but do not have a majority voting, interest are accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

The process of assessing whether a particular equity investment’s fair value is less than its carrying cost requires a significant amount of judgment due to the lack of a mature and stable public market for these securities. In making this judgment, we carefully consider the investee’s most recent financial results, cash position, recent cash flow data, projected cash flows (both short and long-term), financing needs, recent financing rounds, most recent valuation data, the current investing environment, management or ownership changes, and competition. This process is based primarily on information that we request and receive from these privately-held companies, and is performed on a quarterly basis. Although we evaluate all of our privately-held equity investments for impairment based on the criteria established above, each investment’s fair value is only estimated when events or changes in circumstances have occurred that may have a significant effect on its fair value (because the fair value of each investment is not readily determinable). Where these factors indicate that the equity investment’s fair value is less than its carrying cost, and where we consider such diminution in value to be other than temporary, we record an impairment charge to reduce such equity investment to its estimated net realizable value.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, we assessed each remaining investment’s R&D technology pipeline and market conditions for the next several years in the industry and determined that it is no longer probable that they will generate enough positive future cash flows to recover the full carrying amount of the investment. Please refer to the preceding paragraph for a full discussion of the factors considered. As such, we recognized an impairment charge of $7.9 million.

Note 5: Investments and Fair Value Measurements

Debt and marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value, which is determined based on quoted market prices, with net unrealized gains and losses included in Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. We review investments in debt and equity securities for other-than-temporary impairment whenever the fair value of an investment is less than the amortized cost and evidence indicates that the investment’s carrying amount is not recoverable within a reasonable period of time. To determine whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, we consider whether we have the ability and intent to hold the investment until a market price recovery and consider whether evidence indicating the cost of the investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary. We have determined that the gross unrealized losses on short-term investments at December 31, 2008 are temporary in nature because each investment meets our investment policy credit quality requirements and we have the ability and the intent to hold these investments until they recover their unrealized losses, which may be until maturity.

Money market funds of $2.9 million represent funds from The Reserve Primary Fund (“Fund”) reclassified from cash and cash equivalents as the Fund has adopted a plan of liquidation in 2008. As a result, the Fund’s shares were not tradable at December 31, 2008. Our interest in the Fund was approximately $14.8 million prior to their adoption of the liquidation plan. As of December 31, 2008, we received a total of $11.7 million in partial liquidation of our interest in the Fund, which has been invested in alternative money market funds all of which are highly liquid and currently tradable at $1 Net Asset Value. On February 20, 2009, we received a total of $1.0 million in further partial liquidation of our interest in the Fund, which was similarly invested in alternative money market funds freely tradable at $1 Net Asset Value.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2008, $3.9 million was recognized in net realized gains, which comprised $5.3 million in realized gains from sale of investments offset by $1.4 million in realized losses of which $0.6 million impairment charges related to the Fund, and one corporate debt instrument due to its significantly low level of trading activity. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, $0.3 million was recognized in net realized losses, which comprised $0.7 million in realized gains from sale of investments offset by $1.0 million in realized losses of which $0.3 million impairment charges on one corporate debt instrument due to its significantly low level of trading activity. As of December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, net unrealized losses of $0.6 million and net unrealized gains of $2.0 million, respectively, were included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Fair Value Measurements

The company adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”), effective January 1, 2008. SFAS No. 157 identifies fair value as the exchange price, or exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, SFAS No. 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1: Inputs that are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date;

Level 2: Inputs that are other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life or by comparison to similar instruments; and

Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. These include management’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

At December 31, 2008 the Company’s investments have been presented in accordance with the fair value hierarchy specified in SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements as follows:

Included in money market funds is $96.9 million which have been classified as Cash Equivalents at December 31, 2008.

Investments are generally classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Investments in United States Treasury securities and overnight Money Market Mutual Funds have been classified as Level 1 because these securities are valued based upon quoted prices in active markets or because the investments are actively traded at $1.00 Net Asset Value.

Government Agency investments and Corporate Debt instruments (including investments in Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed securities) have generally been classified as Level 2 because markets for these securities are less active or valuations for such securities utilize significant inputs which are directly or indirectly observable.

At December 31, 2008, one Corporate Debt instrument and one Money Market Fund have been classified as Level 3 due to their significantly low trading activity. The portion of Money Market Fund which has been classified as Level 3 consists of funds placed in The Reserve Primary Fund of $2.9 million at December 31, 2008.

Note 6: Convertible Debt

On June 4, 2003, we sold $240.0 million of 1.50% convertible senior debentures due 2023 (“Debentures”) in a private placement, which are unsecured senior obligations, paying interest semi-annually in arrears at an annual rate of 1.50%.

On June 2, 2008, (the ‘Redemption Date’), we redeemed the outstanding balance of the Debentures at our option, which totaled $240.0 million and was 100% of the principal amount. Interest paid during the second quarter of 2008 totaled $1.8 million, which consisted of accrued and unpaid interest payments between December 1, 2007 and June 2, 2008.

Leases

Off-Balance Sheet Financing—Synthetic Lease Arrangement

As of December 31, 2008 we were a party to two synthetic leases (the “301 Lease” and the “303 Lease”, together “Leases”) covering our Foster City facilities located at 301 and 303 Velocity Way, Foster City, California. These leases provided a cost effective means of providing adequate office space for our corporate offices. Both Leases were scheduled to expire in July 2014. The Leases included an option to, purchase the facilities during or at the end of the term of the Leases for the amount expended by the lessor to purchase the facilities. The funds pledged under the Leases ($56.9 million for the 303 Lease and $31.7 million for the 301 Lease at December 31, 2008 for a total of $88.6 million) are in LIBOR-based interest bearing accounts and are restricted to withdrawals at all times.

We have exercised our purchase option in January 2009 with respect to the 301 Lease. On January 29, 2009, we completed the sale of land and building to Gilead for a total price of $137.5 million, subject to an escrow holdback of $15.5 million. The escrow period expires January 2010. The property sold included approximately thirty acres of land and the office building located on the land at 301 Velocity Way, Foster City, California, consisting of approximately 163,000 square feet and certain other assets related to the property. Accordingly, the $31.7 million of pledged funds have been re-classified as Assets Held For Sale in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2008.

We have guaranteed to the lessor a residual value associated with the buildings equal to 82% of their funding of the respective Leases. Under the financial covenants, we must maintain a minimum net worth and a minimum tangible net worth as of the end of each quarter. There is an additional covenant regarding mergers. We were in compliance with all such financial and merger related covenants as of December 31, 2008. We have assessed our exposure in relation to the first loss guarantees under the Leases and have determined that there is no deficiency to the guaranteed value at December 31, 2008. If there is a decline in value, we will record a loss associated with the residual value guarantee. In conjunction with the Leases, we have entered into separate ground leases with the lessor for approximately 30 years. As of December 31, 2008, we were treated as the owner of these buildings for federal income tax purposes. Since we exercised our purchase option with respect to the 301 Lease, our maximum exposure under our remaining synthetic lease arrangement is $56.9 million as of January 29, 2009.

We apply the accounting and disclosure rules set forth in FASB Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, as revised (“FIN 46R”) for variable interest entities (“VIEs”). We have evaluated our synthetic lease agreements to determine if the arrangements qualify as variable interest entities under FIN 46R. We have determined that the synthetic lease agreements do qualify as VIEs; however, because we are not the primary beneficiary under FIN 46R we are not required to consolidate the VIEs in our financial statements.

As part of the September 2004 amended financing arrangement for the 301 Lease, we completed a valuation of the building located at 301 Velocity Way. Under the original financing agreement, we guaranteed the lessor upon

termination of the original lease an 82% residual value in the building which cost $43.1 million to construct. The valuation provided a value of approximately $31.7 million, and we recorded a one-time loss of $11.4 million associated with the original lease. In addition, we took a non-cash charge of $0.9 million for capitalized costs associated with the financial arrangement.

We also lease office facilities in various locations in the United States and overseas. Following is a table for future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases and future minimum sublease income under non-cancellable subleases for each of the next five years and thereafter (in thousands) as of December 31, 2008:

Lease obligation related to the principal corporate facility is estimated and is based on current market interest rates (LIBOR) and based on collateralized assumptions.

In January, 2009, we sold the 163,000 square foot building and approximately 30 acres of land in our Foster City, California campus to Gilead. As a result of the sale, total future minimum operating lease obligations would decrease by approximately $5.8 million for 2009 and beyond, and total sublease income would decrease by approximately $5.0 million for 2009 and beyond.

Rent expense was approximately $9.9 million, $11.0 million, and $10.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Sublease rental income was approximately $2.5 million, $2.1 million, and $1.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Purchase Commitments

We sub-contract with other companies to manufacture our products. During the normal course of business the sub-contractors procure components based upon orders placed by us. If we cancel all or part of the order, we may still be liable to the sub-contractors for the cost of the components purchased by the sub-contractors for placement in our products. We periodically review the potential liability and the adequacy of the related allowance. Our consolidated financial position and results of operations could be negatively impacted if we were required to compensate the sub-contract manufacturers for amounts in excess of the related allowance.

Guarantees and Product Warranties

Under Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others (“FIN 45”), we are required upon issuance of a guarantee to disclose and recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation we assume under that guarantee.

Our products are generally accompanied by a 12-month warranty, which covers both parts and labor. We accrue for warranty costs as part of cost of sales based on associated material product costs and technical support labor costs. The warranty provision is based upon historical experience, by product, configuration and geographic region.

The lease agreements for our company headquarters provided for residual value guarantees. Under FIN 45, the fair value of a residual value guarantee in lease agreements entered into after December 31, 2002, must be recognized as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet. We have determined that the residual value guarantees do not represent a material liability as of December 31, 2008.

In the normal course of business and in an effort to facilitate the sales of our products, we sometimes indemnify other parties, including customers, lessors and parties to other transactions with us. Typically our indemnity provisions provide that we agree to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations and warranties or covenants and intellectual property infringement. Our indemnity provisions often limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made as well as the amount of the claim which can be made. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our current and former officers and directors; our bylaws also contain similar indemnification obligations for our agents.

Legal Proceedings

We may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations and proceedings relating to contractual disputes, securities law, intellectual property, employment matters and other claims or litigation matters relating to various claims that arise in the normal course of our business. We determine whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. We assess our potential liability by analyzing our specific litigation and regulatory matters using available information. We develop our views on estimated losses in consultation with inside and outside counsel, which involves a subjective analysis of potential results and outcomes, assuming various combinations of appropriate litigation and settlement strategies. Because of the uncertainties related to both the amount and ranges of possible loss on the pending litigation matters, we are unable to predict with certainty the precise liability that could finally result from a range of possible unfavorable outcomes. However, taking all of the above factors into account, we reserve an amount that we could reasonably expect to pay. However, our estimates could be wrong, and we could pay more or less than our current accrual. Litigation can be costly, diverting management’s attention and could, upon resolution, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flow.

As of December 31, 2008, the end of the annual period covered by this report, we are subject to the various claims, lawsuits, investigations or proceedings discussed below, as well as certain other legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. We also settled certain matters during the fourth quarter of 2008.

Leggett & Platt, Inc. and L&P Property Management Company:

On November 6, 2007, EFI filed a complaint against Leggett & Platt, Inc. and its patent holding subsidiary, L&P Property Management Company, in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri for declaratory

and injunctive relief challenging the validity and enforceability of a patent issued to L&P. The challenged patent is a continuation of a patent that L&P previously asserted against EFI in a prior court action. The court ultimately invalidated the patent in the prior court action on multiple grounds. EFI firmly believes that the court should summarily invalidate the continuation patent for similar reasons. Further, EFI believes that L&P’s failure to adequately disclose the previous lawsuit proceedings to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office amounts to inequitable conduct that should render the new patent unenforceable. Thus, EFI has filed a motion for summary judgment on these issues. L&P filed counterclaims against EFI, including claims for alleged infringement of the continuation patent. While EFI believes that its products do not infringe, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this litigation.

Durst Fototechnik Technology GmbH v. Electronics for Imaging, GmbH et al.:

On February 23, 2007, Durst brought a patent infringement action against Electronics for Imaging, GmbH (“EFI GmbH”) in the Mannheim District Court in Germany. On May 10, 2007, EFI GmbH filed its Statement of Defenses. These defenses include lack of jurisdiction, non-infringement, invalidity and unenforceability based on Durst’s improper actions before the German patent office. The Company filed its Statement of Defense on August 29, 2007. EFI’s defenses include those for EFI GmbH, as well as an additional defense for prior use based on EFI’s own European patent rights. The Mannheim court conducted a trial on November 30, 2007. At the conclusion of the trial, the court ordered the parties to provide further briefing regarding issues raised by EFI regarding the validity of Durst’s patent. On February 15, 2008, the Court decided to appoint an expert to assist it on questions related to the validity of the Durst utility model right. EFI will continue to defend itself vigorously. While EFI believes that its products do not infringe any valid claim of Durst’s patent, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this litigation.

Acacia | Screentone Patent Litigation:

On August 8, 2007, Screentone Systems Corporation, a subsidiary of Acacia Technologies Group, initiated litigation against several defendants, including Konica Minolta Printing Solutions, Canon USA, and Ricoh Americas, for infringement of a patent related to apparatus and methods of digital halftoning in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. Konica Minolta, Canon and Ricoh are EFI customers. EFI has contractual obligations to indemnify its customers to varying degrees and subject to various circumstances. At least one defendant has written requesting indemnification for any EFI products that allegedly infringe these patents.

In order to protect its products and its customers, on November 13, 2007 EFI filed a declaratory judgment action (“DJ”) in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California seeking to invalidate the patent asserted in the Texas action, as well as an additional patent Acacia identified in previous correspondence. At about the same time, other defendants from the Texas actions filed DJ actions in Washington and Delaware. A federal multidistrict litigation panel consolidated all cases with EFI’s case in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, where the consolidated cases are now proceeding. The claims challenging the patent first asserted in the Texas action remain pending, and the consolidated case is currently set for trial on August 30, 2010.

While EFI does not believe that its products infringed any valid claim of Acacia and Screentone’s patents, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this litigation.

Bureau of Industry and Security Export Investigation:

In January 2005, prior to EFI’s acquisition of VUTEk, the U.S. Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”) initiated an investigation of VUTEk relating to VUTEk’s alleged failure to comply with U.S. export regulations in connection with several export sales to Syria in 2004. EFI self-initiated an internal

compliance review of historical export practices for both VUTEk and EFI. Potential violations uncovered during our compliance review were voluntarily disclosed to BIS in November 2006 (for VUTEk) and December 2006 (for EFI). Additionally, we provided BIS with detailed reports of our compliance review findings and supplemental information in March 2007 (for VUTEk) and May 2007 (for EFI). The areas of possible non-compliance found in the internal review relate to: (1) deemed exports of controlled encryption source code and/or technology to foreign nationals of Syria and Iran, (2) exports of printers and other products with encryption functionality before completion of encryption reviews by BIS and (3) statistical reporting errors on some export declarations. The Office of Export Enforcement at BIS HQ referred the VUTEk matter to an attorney in the Office of Chief Counsel for Industry and Security for final determination. In December 2008, these matters were resolved solely with administrative penalties of $32,000.

Purported Derivative Shareholder Complaints:

Beginning on August 16, 2006, several purported derivative shareholder complaints were filed in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Mateo, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, and Delaware Chancery Court. The complaints generally alleged that certain of the Company’s current and former officers and/or directors breached their fiduciary duties by improperly backdating stock option grants to various officers and directors in violation of the Company’s stock option plans, as well as in improperly accounting for the allegedly backdated options in violation of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The actions in the Northern District of California also alleged that the individual defendants violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Delaware actions also purported to be brought on behalf of a class consisting of all others similarly situated and alleged a class claim for breach of the fiduciary duty of disclosure. The actions filed in San Mateo County were dismissed without prejudice. The actions in the Northern District of California were stayed in deference to the litigation pending in Delaware.

On September 4, 2008, the Delaware Chancery Court approved the previously disclosed proposed settlement of related shareholder derivative litigation concerning the Company’s historical option granting practices. On October 6, 2008, the time to file a notice of appeal from the Chancery Court’s order approving the settlement elapsed, and no notice of appeal was filed.

Pursuant to the settlement, the Company received $5.0 million in insurance proceeds and paid approximately $3.1 million in plaintiffs’ legal fees and costs in October 2008. The settlement also provided for the adoption of certain remedial measures, including the cancellation and repricing of certain stock options, certain payments to be made to the Company and the adoption of a number of changes to EFI’s corporate governance and procedures.

Tesseron Patent Litigation:

On September 26, 2007, Tesseron, Ltd. initiated litigation against Konica Minolta Business Solutions USA, Konica Minolta Business Technologies and Konica Minolta Holdings for infringement of eight patents related to variable printing technology in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division. Konica Minolta is an EFI customer and the complaint references EFI Fiery variable data enabled printer controllers. EFI has contractual obligations to indemnify its customers to varying degrees and subject to various circumstances. Konica Minolta has written requesting indemnification for any EFI products that allegedly infringe these patents. On December 6, 2007, Tesseron filed an amended complaint in the Ohio action wherein it added EFI and Ricoh as defendants, but dropped 6 of the 8 original patents in suit.

On October 30, 2007, EFI filed a complaint against Tesseron in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, which subsequently transferred the action to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. EFI’s complaint sought a declaratory judgment that Tesseron’s patents are invalid and/

or not infringed. EFI also sought to prevent Tesseron and its attorneys from threatening EFI or its OEM customers with infringement of those patents, or bringing a lawsuit claiming infringement with regard to such products. After transfer of EFI’s action to Ohio, EFI negotiated for a covenant not to sue on 6 of the 8 patents that Tesseron had originally threatened against EFI and its customers.

On September 30, 2008, EFI reached a settlement with Tesseron and, on October 17, 2008, the Ohio District Court dismissed EFI’s and Tesseron’s claims, defenses, and counterclaims against one another. The terms of the settlement between the parties are confidential and the amount has been paid to Tesseron in full.

Note 9: Common Stock Repurchase Programs

In November 2007, our Board of Directors authorized $100.0 million to be used for the repurchase of our outstanding common stock. Under this publicly announced plan, we repurchased a total of 3.0 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of $67.3 million in 2007, and we repurchased a total of 4.7 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of $64.6 million in 2008. In February 2009, the remaining $33.2 million was canceled by the Board of Directors and replaced with a new authorization to purchase an additional $100.0 million of outstanding common stock. In 2008, we purchased an additional 55 thousand shares for an aggregate purchase price of $0.6 million from employees to satisfy tax withholding obligations that arise on the vesting of shares of restricted stock and stock units. These repurchased shares are recorded as treasury stock and are accounted for under the cost method. None of the shares of common stock we have repurchased have been retired. Our buyback program is limited by SEC regulations and by compliance with the Company’s insider trading policy.

Note 10: Disposition of Product Line

In June 2006 we sold our inventory and intangible assets related to the Mobile Workforce Automation product line for $10.0 million. Other elements of this product line are still reported under continued operations.

We have $38.4 million ($37.7 million for state tax purposes) and $13.9 million ($16.1 million for state tax purposes) of loss and credit carry-forwards at December 31, 2008 for US federal tax purposes. These losses and credits will expire between 2010 and 2021. A significant portion of these net operating loss and credit carry-forwards relate to recent acquisitions and utilization of these loss and credit carry-forwards will be subject to an annual limitation under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (IRC). We also have a valuation allowance related to foreign tax credits resulting from the 2003 acquisition of Best and compensation limitations potentially limited by IRC 162(m). If these foreign tax credits and the compensation deductions are ultimately utilized, the resulting benefit would reduce tax expense.

Effective January 1, 2007 we adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes by requiring a tax position be recognized only when it is more likely than not that the tax position, based on its technical merits, will be sustained upon ultimate settlement with the applicable tax authority. The tax benefit to be recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the applicable tax authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The cumulative effect of adopting FIN 48 has been recorded in 2007 as an increase of $4.8 million to retained earnings, and a decrease of $1.1 million and $5.9 million in goodwill and taxes payable respectively.

As of December 31 2008 and December 31, 2007, the total amount of gross unrecognized benefits was $33.8 million and $33.4 million which, after December 31, 2008, would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. Over the next twelve months, our existing tax positions will continue to generate an increase in liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits. A reconciliation of the change in the gross unrecognized tax benefits from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2008 is as follows:

We recognize potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. At December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we have accrued $2.6 million and $1.5 million for potential payments of interest and penalties.

As of December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the amount of net unrecognized benefits that, after December 31, 2008, would impact our effective tax rate if recognized was $33.8 million and $33.4 million respectively, offset by a deferred tax charge of $2.3 million and $2.9 million related to the federal tax effect of state taxes for the same periods. We were subject to examination by both the US federal and state tax jurisdictions for the 2004-2007 tax years and the Netherlands for 2006-2007 tax years. In the third quarter of 2008, we finalized a closing agreement with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) to complete their examination of the 2002 through 2004 tax years. As a result of the IRS audit settlement, we reduced our unrecognized tax benefits by $6.6 million, of which $2.5 million was recorded as a tax benefit in 2008. The reduction in unrecognized tax benefits related primarily to intercompany cost allocations and the research and development credits. Since the timing of the resolution of audits is uncertain, we are unable to estimate any potential adjustments in the next 12 months to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits.

Note 12: Employee Benefit Plans

Equity Incentive Plans

As of December 31, 2008, we have 12 equity incentive plans. Since the approval by the Stockholders, on December 14, 2007, of our new 2007 Equity Incentive Award Plan, no awards may be granted under our 11 previously adopted equity incentive plans. As of December 31, 2008, 10 of these plans adopted prior to the 2007 Equity Incentive Award Plan continue to have outstanding awards.

Our primary equity incentive plans are summarized as follows:

2007 Stock Plan

In December 2007, our stockholders approved the 2007 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2007 Plan”) and the reservation of an aggregate of 3,300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance pursuant to the 2007 Plan. The 2007 Plan provides for grants of stock options (both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options), restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance stock units, dividend equivalents, stock payments, deferred stock, restricted stock units and performance-based awards. Options and awards generally vest over a period of three to four years from the date of grant and generally expire seven to ten years from the date of the grant. The terms of the 2007 Plan provide that an option price shall not be less than 100% of fair market value on the date of the grant. Our Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”) may grant a stock bonus or stock unit award under the 2007 Plan in lieu of all or a portion of any cash bonus that a participant would have otherwise received for the related performance period.

The shares of common stock covered by the 2007 Plan may be treasury shares, authorized but unissued shares, or shares purchased in the open market. If an award under the 2007 Plan is forfeited (including a reimbursement of an unvested award upon a participant’s termination of employment at a price equal to the par value of the common stock subject to the award) or expired, any shares of common stock subject to the award may be used again for new grants under the 2007 Plan.

The 2007 Plan is administered by a committee, which may be the Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Board of Directors (the “Committee”). The Committee has the exclusive authority to administer the 2007 Plan, including the power to (i) designate participants under the 2007 Plan, (ii) determine the types of awards granted to participants under the 2007 Plan, the number of such awards, and the number of shares of common stock of the Company subject to such awards, (iii) determine and interpret the terms and conditions of any awards under the 2007 Plan, including the vesting schedule, exercise price, whether to settle, or accept the payment of any exercise price, in cash, common stock, other awards or other property, and whether an award may be cancelled, forfeited or surrendered, (iv) prescribe the form of each award agreement, and (v) adopt rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the 2007 Plan. The Committee does not have the authority to accelerate the vesting or waive the forfeiture of any qualified performance-based awards.

Persons eligible to participate in the 2007 Plan include all employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries, as determined by the Committee. As of December 31, 2008, approximately 2,000 employees and 5 non-employee directors were eligible to participate in the 2007 Plan.

As of December 31, 2008, there were 2.4 million shares outstanding and 0.6 million shares available for grant under the 2007 Plan. As of December 31, 2007, there were 1.1 million shares outstanding and 2.2 million shares available for grant under the 2007 Plan.

Since the adoption by the Company of the 2007 Plan, no awards may be granted under our previously adopted plans, described below.

2004 Stock Plan

With the adoption of the 2007 Plan, no additional awards may be granted under the 2004 Stock Plan (the “2004 Plan”). Under the 2004 Plan, 8.4 million shares of common stock were authorized for issuance. This amount includes 0.1 million shares that were consolidated from the acquired Splash Plan, T/R Plan and Printcafe Plans on June 7, 2006. The terms of the 2004 Plan provide that an option price shall not be less than 100% of fair market value on the date of the grant. The vesting period for restricted stock must be at least (a) one (1) year in

the case of a restricted stock award subject to a vesting schedule based upon the achievement of specified performance goals by the participant or (b) three (3) years in the case of a restricted stock award absent such performance-based vesting. Under this plan, restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards could be granted that did not comply with the preceding minimum vesting requirement as long as the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued with respect to such non-conforming awards granted under this plan did not exceed 10% of the reserve. The 2004 Plan provides for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the 2004 Plan). The options and restricted stock awards generally vest over a 42 to 48 month period and expire from seven to ten years from the date of the grant. As of December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, there were 2.2 million, 3.4 million and 3.9 million shares, respectively, outstanding under the 2004 Plan.

1999 Stock Plan

With the adoption of the 2007 Plan, no additional awards may be granted under the 1999 Stock Plan (the “1999 Plan”). The 1999 Plan authorized 10.6 million shares of common stock for issuance. The terms of the 1999 Plan provide that an option price may not be less than 100% of fair market value and the purchase price under restricted stock purchase agreement may not be less than 50% of fair market value on the date of the grant. The Board of Directors or a committee designated by the Board of Directors had the authority to determine to whom options would be granted, the number of shares, the vesting period, the expiration date and the exercise price. The 1999 Plan provides for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the 1999 Plan). The options and restricted stock awards generally vest from two to four years and expire from seven to ten years from the date of the grant. As of December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, there were 2.4 million, 3.3 million and 3.7 million shares respectively, outstanding under the 1999 Plan.

1990 Stock Plan

The 1990 Stock Option Plan (the “1990 Plan”) by its terms expired in June 2000 and no additional awards may be granted under this plan. In June 1990, the Company adopted the 1990 Plan, which, as amended, provided for the issuance of incentive and nonqualified stock options to our employees, directors and non-employees. The Company reserved 13.2 million shares of common stock for issuance under the 1990 Plan. The terms of the 1990 Plan required that incentive stock options be granted with an exercise price of no less than the fair market value on the date of the grant. The original terms of the 1990 Plan provided that the exercise price of nonqualified stock options could not be less than 85% of the fair market value on the date of the grant. On May 4, 1995, the 1990 Plan was amended to provide that the Company would not grant options at less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. Generally, the options vested over a four year period. The 1990 Plan allows the Company to buy out an option grant for a payment in cash or shares, an option previously granted based on terms and conditions as established by the Company at the time such offer is made. The 1990 Plan provides for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the 1990 Plan). The options are exercisable at times and increments as specified by the Board of Directors, and expire not more than 10 years from date of grant. All options available under the 1990 Plan have been issued. Any shares (plus any shares that might in the future be returned to the 1990 Plan as a result of cancellations) that remained available for future grants under the 1990 Plan have been cancelled. As of December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, there were approximately 0.7 million, 1.3 million, and 1.8 million shares, respectively, outstanding under the 1990 Plan.

Acquired Stock Plans

In connection with our acquisition of Splash Technology Holdings, Inc., T/R Systems, Inc, Print Café and Management Graphics, Inc, we assumed their stock incentive plans. As of December 31, 2008, there were 0.2 million options outstanding under these acquired stock plans.

2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In May 2000, our Board of Directors adopted the 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), which became effective on August 1, 2000 and reserved 0.4 million shares of common stock for issuance under the ESPP. The ESPP, as amended, has an automatic share increase feature pursuant to which the shares reserved under the ESPP will automatically increase on the first trading day in January of each year, beginning with calendar year 2006 and continuing through calendar year 2012. The amount of increase is equal to three quarters of one percent (0.75%) of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on the last trading day of December in the immediately preceding calendar year but in no event shall any such increase exceed 2.5 million shares annually. As of December 31, 2008, 0.8 million shares of the Company’s stock have been reserved for issuance under the ESPP.

The ESPP is qualified under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. Eligible employees may contribute from one percent to ten percent of their base compensation not to exceed ten percent of the employee’s earnings. Employees are not able to purchase more than the number of shares having a value greater than $25,000 in any calendar year, as measured at the beginning of the offering period under the ESPP. The purchase price shall be the lesser of 85% of the fair market value of the stock, either on the offering date or on the purchase date. The offering period shall not exceed 27 months beginning with the offering date. The ESPP provided for offerings of 4 consecutive, overlapping 6-month offering periods, with a new offering period commencing on the first trading day on or after February 1 and August 1 of each year.

The ESPP was suspended effective November 9, 2006 as a result of the Company not being able to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 and remained suspended through the fourth quarter of 2007, when we became current in our filings with the SEC. For all participants that did not withdraw from the plan, contributions made through that date were being held to be applied towards the first purchase date subsequent to the reinstatement of the plan. We returned all amounts for participants with an offering period that exceeded 22 months from the beginning of the offering date. We resumed this plan in the fourth quarter of 2007. No shares were issued under the ESPP in 2007. In 2008 and 2006, 0.5 million and 0.4 million shares were issued under the ESPP at an average purchase price of $12.18 and $14.75, respectively. As of December 31, 2008, there was $2.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation arrangements granted under the ESPP. That cost is expected to be recognized over a period of 1.8 years. At December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, there were 0.3 million, 0.4 million and 0.1 million shares, respectively, available for issuance under the ESPP.

Valuation and Expense Information under SFAS 123(R)

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS 123(R), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all equity awards made to our employees and directors, including employee stock options, restricted stock and employee stock purchases related to all stock-based compensation plans based on estimated fair values.

We use the Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) model to value stock-based compensation for all equity awards except market based awards. Market based awards are valued using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The BSM model is the same model which was previously used in preparing our pro forma disclosure required under SFAS 123.

The BSM model determines the fair value of share-based payment awards based on the stock price on the date of grant and is affected by assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, EFI’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. Option-pricing models were developed for use in

estimating the value of traded options that have no vesting or hedging restrictions and are fully transferable. Because our employee stock options and awards have certain characteristics that are significantly different from traded options, and because changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimated value, in management’s opinion, the existing valuation models may not provide an accurate measure of the fair value of EFI’s employee stock options. Although the fair value of employee stock options is determined in accordance with SFAS 123(R) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) using an option-pricing model, the value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction.

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense based on the aforementioned valuation models related to employee stock options, employee stock purchases and restricted stock under SFAS 123(R) for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006:

Stock Options and ESPP Shares

Our determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by various assumptions including volatility, expected term and interest rates. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our stock over a preceding period commensurate with the expected term of the option. Subsequent to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), we utilize the “simplified” method described in SAB 107 to determine the expected term of our options. Using this method, the expected term is estimated by taking the weighted average of the vesting term and the contractual term of the option. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected dividend yield was not considered in the option pricing formula since we do not pay dividends and have no current plans to do so in the future.

The estimated per share weighted average fair value of options and ESPP shares granted and the assumptions used to determine fair value are shown below for the periods indicated:

Restricted Stock Units and Nonvested Shares of Restricted Stock

The restricted stock units and nonvested shares of restricted stock generally vest over a service period of two to four years. The compensation expense incurred for these service awards is based on the closing market price of EFI’s stock on the date of grant and is amortized on an accelerated basis over the requisite service period. The weighted average fair value of restricted stock units granted during the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006 were $13.53, $22.16 and $22.13, respectively. No nonvested shares of restricted stock were granted during 2007 and 2008. The weighted average fair value of nonvested shares of restricted stock granted during the year ended December 31, 2006 was $27.41.

In February 2008, the remaining 138,750 shares of market-based nonvested restricted stock units were modified to seven-year service-based. No incremental stock-based compensation expense was incurred as a result of the modification.

Tender Offer

Based on the independent investigation of our historical stock option granting practices conducted by the Special Committee of our Board of Directors in 2007, we determined that certain compensatory stock options were granted with an exercise price lower than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Any such stock options which had not vested prior to January 1, 2005, absent amendment, would be subject to substantial additional taxes under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and analogous state laws. On October 23, 2007, we filed a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with the SEC with respect to stock options which were determined to have been granted with a below fair market value exercise price. The terms of the tender offer provided that each eligible stock option tendered would be amended to increase the exercise price to the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date determined in the independent investigation in exchange for a cash bonus in an amount equal to the aggregate exercise price increase for such stock option payable in January 2008, less applicable tax withholding. The tender offer expired on November 30, 2007. We accepted for amendment eligible options to purchase 482,380 shares of our common stock and made cash payments, in January 2008, to employees that held eligible options accepted for amendment in the aggregate amount of $283,514, less applicable tax withholding, to compensate them for the increased exercise prices per share of their amended eligible options, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the tender offer.

Restricted Stock Units and Nonvested Shares of Restricted Stock

Restricted stock units and nonvested shares of restricted stock were awarded to employees under our equity incentive plans. Nonvested shares of restricted stock have the same voting rights as other common stock and are considered to be currently issued and outstanding. Restricted stock units do not have the voting rights of common stock, and the shares underlying the restricted stock units are not considered issued and outstanding. A summary of the status of restricted stock units and nonvested shares of restricted stock as of December 31, 2008, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2008, is presented below:

Restricted Stock Units

The fair value of restricted stock units that vested during 2008 and 2007, determined as of the vesting date, were $6.4 million and $7.4 million, respectively. No restricted stock units vested during 2006. The aggregate intrinsic value of restricted stock units vested and expected to vest at December 31, 2008 was $15.4 million, calculated as the closing price per share of our common stock on the last trading day of the fiscal period multiplied by 1.6 million of restricted stock units vested and expected to vest at December 31, 2008. There was approximately $16.4 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to restricted stock units expected to vest as of December 31, 2008. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.4 years.

Nonvested Shares of Restricted Stock

The fair value of restricted stock vested, determined as of the vesting date, was $2.3 million, $7.1 million and $3.9 million during the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. There was $0.7 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested shares of restricted stock expected to vest as of December 31, 2008. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.7 years.

Employee 401(k) Plan

We sponsor a 401(k) Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) to provide retirement and incidental benefits for our employees. Employees may contribute from 1% to 40% of their annual compensation to the 401(k) Plan, limited to a maximum annual amount as set periodically by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). We currently match 50% of the employee contributions, up to a maximum of the first 4% of the employee’s compensation contributed to the plan, subject to IRS limitations. All matching contributions vest over four years starting with the hire date of the individual employee. Our matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan totaled $1.9 million in 2008, $2.0 million in 2007 and $1.8 million in 2006. The employees and our contributions are cash contributions invested in mutual funds managed by an independent fund manager, or in self-directed retirement plans. The fund manager or the employee may invest in our common stock at their discretion.

Note 13: Sale of Land and Building

On October 23, 2008, we entered into a Purchase and Sale agreement with Gilead Sciences, Inc. (“Gilead”), under which certain real property and improvements, and other related assets were sold to Gilead for a total price of $137.5 million, subject to an escrow holdback of $15.5 million. The escrow period expires January 2010. The transaction closed on January 29, 2009. The property sold included approximately thirty acres of land and the office building located at 301 Velocity Way, Foster City, California, consisting of approximately 163,000 square feet and certain other assets related to the property. We continue to retain ownership of the remaining approximately five acres of land and remain obligated under the synthetic lease with respect to the office building located at 303 Velocity Way, Foster City, California, consisting of approximately 295,000 square feet on which the Company’s headquarters is located. As more fully disclosed in Note 8—Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the buildings are subject to synthetic lease agreements.

As a result of the sale to Gilead, assets held for sale of $55.4 million under current assets as of December 31, 2008 include $31.7 million of funds pledged with respect to the synthetic lease of the 301 Velocity Way facility, $2.5 million of related land, $19.8 million of undeveloped land, $1.1 million of leasehold and land improvements, and $0.3 million of previously capitalized financing costs.

Note 14: Restructuring and Other

The Company recorded pretax restructuring and other charges of $11.0, $1.5 million, and $1.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively. Restructuring and other charges includes severance costs of $8.0 million related to headcount of 166 for the year ended December 31, 2008. Severance costs include severance payments, related employee benefits, related legal fees, and outplacement costs. Restructuring and other charges includes facility costs of $2.4 million related to the closure of three facilities and the partial closure of two facilities.

Note 15: Information Concerning Business Segments and Major Customers

Information about Products and Services

We operate in a single industry segment, technology for high-quality printing in short production runs. In accordance with SFAS 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” our operating decision-makers have been identified as our executive officers, who review the operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. We do not have separate operating segments for which discrete financial statements are prepared. Our management makes operating decisions and assesses performance primarily based on the marketplace acceptance of our products, which is typically measured by revenues.

As our enterprise management processes are becoming further refined, including our 2009 planning process, to use financial information that is closely aligned with the three product categories, it is expected that it will be appropriate to present three operating segments beginning in the first quarter of 2009. It is expected that relevant financial information will be prepared for each of the three operating segments that will be used by the chief operating decision making group to allocate resources among the segments.

The following is a breakdown of revenues by product category for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006:

Revenues in Controllers and APPS categories for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 have been revised to reflect the reclassification of Controller-related software revenue of $25.6 million and $21.8 million in 2007 and 2006, respectively from the Advanced Professional Printing Software category to the Controllers category. Total revenue from the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2007 have not changed.

Information about Geographic Areas

Our sales originate in the United States, The Netherlands, Germany and Japan. Shipments to some of our OEM customers are made to centralized purchasing and manufacturing locations, which in turn sell through to other locations. As a result of these factors, we believe that sales to certain geographic locations might be higher or lower, as the ultimate destinations are difficult to ascertain.

Information about Major Customers

For the past three years we have had two major customers, Canon and Xerox, each with total revenues greater than 10%. These customers, in order of magnitude, accounted for approximately 13% and 16% of revenues in 2008, approximately 16% and 15% of revenue in 2007. One customer, Xerox, had an accounts receivable balance greater than 10% of our total accounts receivable balance, accounting for 16% and 12% of our total accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Note 16: Subsequent Events

In January 2009, we announced a restructuring plan to better align our costs with revenue levels. We expect to reduce our worldwide headcount by approximately 100 employees and incur severance costs of approximately $3.4 million.

On January 29, 2009, we completed the sale of land and building to Gilead for a total price of $137.5 million, subject to an escrow holdback of $15.5 million. The escrow period expires January 2010. The property sold included approximately thirty acres of land and the office building located on the land at 301 Velocity Way, Foster City, California, consisting of approximately 163,000 square feet and certain other assets related to the property.

On February 5, 2009, our Board of Directors approved a $100 million share repurchase program, including a $30 million accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) by utilizing a portion of the proceeds from the recent sale of land and building to Gilead. On February 18, 2009, we also entered into an agreement with UBS AG, London branch (“UBS”), to repurchase $30 million of our common stock under the ASR program. We expect to complete the repurchases under the ASR program in the second or third quarter of 2009, with the final completion date subject to the discretion of UBS. Approximately $33.2 million remaining from prior board authorization were cancelled by the Board of Directors in February 2009.

Item 9: Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A: Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is engaged in a comprehensive effort to review, evaluate and improve our controls; however, management does not expect that our disclosure controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance as of December 31, 2008.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

We assessed the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework.

Based on our assessment using those criteria, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2008.

We have excluded Pace and Raster from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 because they were acquired by us during fiscal year 2008. Pace and Raster are wholly owned subsidiaries whose total assets and total revenue represent 5.1% and 1.3%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2008.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, as stated in their report included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

If Buyer and Seller have not arrived at an agreement by December 8, 2008, Buyer and Seller will agree in the REA that Seller shall have perpetual parking rights sufficient to meet the requirements of Seller’s current use permit for the Retained Property and such that neither Buyer’s nor Seller’s employees will have any priority on specific parking spots or locations; provided that Buyer will have the sole and absolute discretion regarding the development and location of all parking lots, garages or other facilities so long as parking for Building A is in compliance with the applicable use permits. In no event shall Seller be required to pay for any costs of construction of any parking structure on the Property, but Seller shall pay a pro rata share of ordinary and reasonable maintenance and repair costs of such parking facilities (whether on-grade or structured) based on relative number of parking spaces utilized by Buyer and Seller.

10.3 Skywalk. Building A and Building B are currently connected by a skywalk. At the end of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall inform Seller whether Buyer wishes to acquire the skywalk as part of Building B. If Buyer so elects, the REA shall include an easement for the benefit of Buyer for access, maintenance and repair of the skywalk. From and after April 16, 2009, Seller and Buyer shall each have the right, at their respective discretion, to close off access to the skywalk at any time, on written notice to the other party. In addition, if Buyer acquires the skywalk, Buyer shall have the right to remove the skywalk at any time, in compliance with all applicable laws; provided that: (i) Seller shall have the right to review and approve any plans for demolition of the skywalk, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (ii) Buyer shall cooperate with Seller to minimize disruption to Seller’s operations at the Retained Property; (iii) Buyer shall bear all costs and expenses in connection with such demolition work, including without limitation the costs of repair of any damage to Building A and/or the Retained Property, and (iv) Buyer and Seller shall have entered into an agreement reasonably satisfactory to Seller providing for Buyer’s access to the Retained Property for demolition purposes and an indemnity with respect to Claims arising from the demolition work.

10.6 First Offer Right. Subject to the approval by Seller’s ground lessee of the Retained Property (the “Ground Lessee”) and in consideration of the Purchase Price, Buyer shall have a right of first offer (the “Right of First Offer”) to purchase or lease the Retained Property on the terms set forth in this Section 10.6. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Ground Lessee’s consent to the Right of First Offer prior to expiration of the Due Diligence Period.

10.6.1 If Seller elects to sell or lease any portion of the Retained Property to any unaffiliated third party, prior to conducting any marketing activity, Seller will deliver to Buyer a written offer (the “Offer”) setting forth all the material terms upon which Seller proposes to sell or lease the Retained Property and offering to sell or lease the Retained Property to Buyer on the same terms. Buyer shall have ten (10) business days after receipt of an Offer in which to notify Seller (the “Notice”) that it would like to purchase the Property on the terms set forth in the Offer. If Buyer provides the Notice, within a reasonable time thereafter Seller and Buyer shall enter into a mutually satisfactory purchase and sale agreement (on substantially similar terms as this Agreement to the extent such terms are relevant) with respect to the sale of the Retained Property, or a mutually satisfactory lease of the Retained Property, and the sale or lease of the Retained Property will be completed pursuant to such agreement or lease. If Buyer does not timely deliver the Notice or rejects the Offer or if despite reasonable good faith efforts, Buyer and Seller fail to enter into a purchase agreement or lease within forty-five (45) days after delivery of Buyer’s Notice, Seller may sell or lease the Retained Property pursuant to Section 10.6.2.

10.6.2 If Buyer does not timely deliver the Notice, Seller may sell or lease the Retained Property to any unaffiliated third party on any terms desired by Seller so long as the terms are not “materially more favorable” to the third party buyer than those of the Offer. In the event that the proposed terms of a sale or lease are “materially more favorable” than the terms of the Offer, then Seller shall re-offer the Retained Property to Buyer on such terms and Buyer shall have five (5) business days after receipt of the written re-offer in which to deliver a Notice with respect to the re-offer. If Buyer provides the Notice, then within a reasonable time thereafter, Seller and Buyer shall enter into a mutually satisfactory purchase and sale agreement on substantially similar terms as this Agreement to the extent such terms are relevant) with respect to the sale of the Retained Property, or a mutually satisfactory lease, as the case may be, and the sale or lease will be completed pursuant to such agreement or lease. If Buyer does not timely deliver the Notice or rejects the re-offer, or if despite reasonable good faith efforts, Buyer and Seller fail to enter into a purchase agreement or lease within forty-five (45) days after delivery of Buyer’s Notice, Seller may sell or lease the Retained Property to any unaffiliated third party on terms that are not “materially more favorable” to the third party buyer than the terms of the re-offer. For the purpose of this Paragraph, “materially more favorable” means that the aggregate value of the purchase price (or rent) and the other economic terms of the third-party purchase (or lease) is lower than ninety-five percent (95%) of the purchase price (or rent) and the other economic terms of the Offer or re-offer, as applicable.

10.6.3 Notwithstanding that Buyer may have rejected or not timely delivered a Notice with respect to an Offer or re-offer, Seller shall keep Buyer informed about Seller’s efforts to market the Retained Property, and Buyer’s Right of First Offer shall continue until the Retained Property is sold to Buyer or a third party in accordance with Section 10.6. If, and only if, Seller sells the Retained Property to a third party in compliance with the terms of this Section 10.6, the

Retained Property shall no longer be subject to Buyer’s Right of First Offer. The provisions of this Section 10.6 shall not apply to any sale or lease of any portion of the Retained Property to any wholly-owned subsidiary of Seller, or to any transfer in connection with a merger, acquisition or consolidation of Seller.

10.6.4 Buyer’s Right of First Offer shall be subject and subordinate at all times to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust, ground lease, synthetic lease or other financing instruments which may now exist or hereafter be executed, for which the Retained Property or any ground leases or underlying leases, or Seller’s interest or estate in any of said items, is specified as security. Buyer agrees to execute and deliver, upon demand by Seller and in the form reasonably requested by Seller, any additional documents evidencing the subordination of Buyer’s Right of First Offer.

If Buyer timely delivers the Approval Notice, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived all defaults or breaches by Seller actually known to Buyer prior to expiration of the Due Diligence Period.

(b) If, after expiration of the Due Diligence Period and prior to the Closing, Seller is in breach or default of the Agreement (and Buyer is not then in breach of the Agreement) and such breach or default was not actually known by Buyer during the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall be entitled to all remedies for Seller’s breaches, whether at law or in equity (including, without limitation, terminating the Agreement, closing Escrow and recovering damages and/or seeking specific performance), subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11.6.

If Seller is in breach of its obligations under this Agreement, including without limitation an uncured breach of any of Seller’s representations and warranties under this Agreement and such breach becomes known to Buyer after expiration of the Due Diligence Period, or if any other Seller breach occurs or is discovered after the Closing of Escrow, then notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein: (i) Seller’s maximum aggregate liability, and the maximum aggregate amount which may be awarded to and collected by Buyer (whether the claim is brought in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) and including any amounts for attorney’s and experts’ fees and costs shall under no circumstances whatsoever exceed Six Million Eight Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($6,875,000) and (ii) no claim by Buyer alleging a default by Seller may be made, and Seller shall have no liability for the same, unless and until such claims, either alone or together with any other claims made by Buyer under this Agreement, is for an aggregate amount in excess of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) (“Threshold Amount”), in which event Seller’s liability respecting any final judgment concerning such claim(s) shall be for the full amount thereof.
