Overview
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Formula is the parent company of subsidiaries and affiliates, referred to collectively as the Formula Group. We are principally engaged in providing software consulting services, developing proprietary software products and providing computer-based business solutions. We currently hold a controlling interest in four publicly traded subsidiaries: BluePhoenix Solutions Ltd., Magic Software Enterprises Ltd., Matrix IT Ltd. and Sapiens International Corporation N.V. In addition, we wholly own nextSource Inc. We consolidate the results of operations of our subsidiaries with ours. Our operating results are directly influenced by the consolidation and cessation of consolidation of our subsidiaries. This could cause significant fluctuations of our consolidated operating results. As a result, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and you should not rely on these comparisons as indications of our future performance.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
On December 26, 2006, we spun-off Formula Vision Technology (F.V.T.) Ltd., or Formula Vision (TASE: FOT), such that Formula Vision is no longer a subsidiary of us. The spin-off was effected by way of distributing the 36,696,000 Formula Vision shares owned by Formula (then representing approximately 57% of the outstanding Formula Vision shares) as a dividend in-kind to Formulas shareholders. The Formula Vision shares were distributed at a ratio of 2.78 Formula Vision shares for each outstanding Ordinary Share held at the close of the trade on December 14, 2006, the record date, subject to withholding taxes. On December 31, 2006, Formula Vision paid approximately $51 million to Formula, as a full payment of the principle and interest of the debt owed by Formula Vision to Formula.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
We recognize revenues in two categories: the delivery of software services and the delivery of proprietary software solutions. All of our subsidiaries, including IT services companies and proprietary software solutions companies, recognize revenues from the delivery of software services, and most of them recognize revenues in both revenue categories. We have separated our subsidiaries into these categories in accordance with the category in which each subsidiary has earned most of its revenues.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
We recognize, in non-operating income, gains and losses arising from the sale of previously un-issued capital stock by a subsidiary or an affiliate to outside investors, if the sale changes our ownership percentage in this entity. We measure the gain or loss by the difference between our share in the proceeds from this stock offering and the carrying amount, on an equity basis, of the proportionate reduction in our investment. Transactions of this nature do not occur on a regular basis and it is difficult for us to predict their timing.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Head Sub 3 Left-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Our functional and reporting currency
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Formula and some of our subsidiaries operate primarily in the economic environment of the New Israeli Shekel (NIS). The functional currency of our other subsidiaries is the dollar. We have elected to use the dollar as our reporting currency.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
We translate our financial statements into dollars, as well as the financial statements of our subsidiaries whose functional currency is the NIS, under the principles described in Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 52. Assets and liabilities have been translated at period-end exchange rates. Results of operations have been translated at the exchange rate at the dates on which those transactions occurred or at an average rate. We present material differences resulting from translation under shareholders equity in the item accumulating other comprehensive income (loss). If gains and losses arising from these translations are immaterial, we record them as financial expenses included in the statements of income. In the consolidation, we present the financial statements of subsidiaries whose functional currency is the dollar, at the original amounts.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Head Sub 3 Left-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Critical Accounting Policies
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
In preparation of our financial statements, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. The significant accounting policies which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Head Sub 3 Left-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Revenue Recognition
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
The revenue recognition policy of each of our significant subsidiaries is material because our revenue is a key component of our results of operations. Our revenue recognition determines the timing of certain expenses, such as commissions and royalties. We follow very specific and detailed guidelines in measuring revenue; however, certain judgments affect the application of our revenue policy. Revenue results are difficult to predict and any shortfall in revenue or delay in recognizing revenue could cause our operating results to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and could result in future operating losses. Should changes in conditions cause our subsidiaries managements to determine that these guidelines are not met for certain future transactions, revenue recognized for any reporting period could be adversely affected.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Revenues derived from direct software license agreements are recognized in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2 Software Revenue Recognition (as amended by SOP 98-4 and SOP 98-9), upon delivery of the software when collection is probable, the license fee is otherwise fixed or determinable and persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists. When a project involves significant modification of software, revenue is generally recognized according to the percentage of completion method. Under this method, estimated revenue is generally accrued based on costs incurred to date as a percentage of total updated estimated costs. If our subsidiaries do not accurately estimate the resources required or the scope of work to be performed, or do not manage their projects properly within the planned periods of time or satisfy their obligations under the contracts, then future margins may be significantly and negatively affected or losses on existing contracts may need to be recognized. Any such resulting reductions in margins or contract losses could be material to our results of operations. Our subsidiaries recognize contract losses, if any, in the period in which they first become evident.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Under some of our subsidiaries agreements, the customer may have the right to receive unspecified upgrades on a when-and-if available basis. These upgrades are considered post-contract customer support, referred to as PCS, and the fair value allocated to this right is recognized ratably over the term of the PCS.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
There are no rights of return, price protection or similar contingencies in our subsidiaries contracts. Accordingly they do not establish a provision due to the lack of warranties claims in the past. Some of our subsidiaries contracts include client acceptance clauses. In determining whether revenue can be recognized, when an acceptance clause exists, they consider their history with similar arrangements, the customers involvement in the progress, the existence of other service providers and the payments terms.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Our subsidiaries revenue recognition policy does not permit any revenue recognition when the payment term exceeds 12 months or when there is an uncertainty related to the relationship with the customer.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
We recognize revenues from projects billed on a time and material basis, based on SOP 81-1 Accounting for Performance of Construction Type and Certain Production Type Contracts, using contract accounting on a percentage of completion method, based on the relationship of actual costs incurred to total costs estimated to be incurred over the duration of the contract. Provision for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts is made in the period in which such losses are first determined, in the amount of the estimated loss on the entire contract. As of December 31, 2005, no such estimated losses were identified.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
We recognize revenues from consulting fees with respect to fixed fee contracts, based upon the percentage of completion method. We recognize contract losses, if any, in the period in which they first become evident.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Revenues from contractual maintenance contract and training are recognized ratably over the contract period.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Revenues from sales of hardware are recognized when the merchandise is delivered to the customer, provided no significant vendor obligations remain.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Our management believes that our revenue recognition policies are in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Head Sub 2 Left-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Capitalized software research and development costs
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Development costs of software that is intended for sale that were incurred after the establishment of technological feasibility of the relevant product, are capitalized. Technological feasibility is determined by our subsidiaries when detailed program design is completed and verified in accordance with the provisions of the FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86 (SFAS 86). Software development costs incurred by our subsidiaries before technological feasibility is established are charged to the statement of operations as incurred net of participation of the Office of the Chief Scientist. Our subsidiaries policy on capitalized software costs determines the timing of our recognition of certain development costs. In addition, this policy determines whether the cost is classified as development expense or capitalized costs. Our subsidiaries management is required to use professional judgment in determining whether development costs meet the criteria for immediate expense or capitalization. Amortization of capitalized software development costs begins when the product is available for general release to customers. Annual amortization is computed by the straight-line method, over the remaining useful life of the product, or based on the ratio of current gross revenues to current and anticipated future gross revenues, whichever is higher. Currently, amortization is computed by the straight-line method over a period of 3 to 5 years. Our subsidiaries failure to accurately predict the useful life of capitalized software could cause a one-time amortization, which could adversely affect our operating results.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Head Sub 3 Left-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Our business acquisitions resulted in goodwill and other intangible assets. We periodically evaluate our goodwill, intangible assets, and investments in affiliates for potential impairment indicators. Our judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on legal factors, market conditions and operational performance of our acquired businesses and investments.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
In accordance with FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 Goodwill and Other intangible Assets (SFAS 142), effective January 1, 2002, indefinite life intangible assets and goodwill are not amortized but rather subject to annual impairment testing.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Goodwill and intangible assets are tested for impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying value. Fair value is generally determined using discounted cash flows, market multiples and market capitalization. Significant estimates used in the fair value methodologies include estimates of future cash flows, future short term and long term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimates of market multiples of the reportable unit. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges for our goodwill and intangible assets. These write downs, if any, may have an adverse affect on our operating results. Future events could cause us to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that additional intangible assets associated with our acquired businesses are impaired.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Large Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is subjective and requires significant judgment at many points during the analysis. In estimating the fair value of the reporting unit for the purpose of our annual or periodic analysis, we make estimates and judgments about the future cash flows of that reporting unit. Although our cash flow forecasts are based on assumptions that are consistent with our plans and estimates we are using to manage the underlying businesses, there is significant exercise of judgment involved in determining the cash flows attributable to a reporting unit over its estimated remaining useful life. In addition, we make certain judgments about allocating shared assets to the estimated balance sheets of our reporting units. Changes in judgment on these assumptions and estimates could result in a goodwill impairment charge. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Operating Results
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Head Sub 2 Left-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Comparison of the Nine months ended September 2005 and 2006
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para (List) Indent Lv 0- TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Revenues . Revenues increased 7% from $381.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 to $407.7 million in the nine months ended September 30,2006. Revenues from the two categories of our operation were as follows: Revenues from the delivery of software services increased 13%, from $205.6 million in the nine months ended September 30,2005 to $232.7 million in the nine months ended September 30,2006. This increase was attributable to the growth in Matrixs and nextSources revenues due to an increased demand for their services. Revenues from the sale of proprietary software solutions in the first nine months of 2006 were relatively at the same level as in 2005, $175.0 million and $176.0 million, respectively. This was due to an increase in BluePhoenix and Sapiens revenues, which was offset by a decrease in Formula Visions revenues. Magics revenues remained relatively the same.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists primarily of wages and related expenses and hardware and other materials costs. Cost of revenues increased 10.0% from $250.6 million in the nine months ended September 30,2005 to $276.3 million in the nine months ended September 30,2006. As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues increased from 66.0% in the first nine months of 2005 to 68.0% in the first nine months of 2006. The increase was caused primarily by an increase in sales of our software services, which are generally characterized by a lower gross margin than sales of proprietary software solutions. Cost of revenues for proprietary software solutions increased 4.3% to $89.3 million in the nine months ended September 30,2005 from $85.7 million in the nine months ended September 30,2005. Cost of revenues for software services increased 13.0% from $165.0 in the nine months ended September 30,2005 to $187.0 million in the nine months ended September 30,2006, primarily due to the increase in the cost of revenues of our subsidiaries Matrix and nextSource.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Software Development Costs, net. Software development costs consist primarily of wages and related expenses and, to a lesser degree, consulting fees we pay to independent contractors engaged in research and development. Software development costs, net, consist of software development costs, gross, less capitalized software costs. Software developments costs, gross, in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 were $33.6 million and $29.0 million, respectively. In the first nine months of 2006, we capitalized software costs of $14.0 million compared to $11.9 million in the first nine months of 2005. Capitalization of software costs in the first nine months of 2006 was attributable to our proprietary software solutions subsidiaries. Software development costs, net, increased from $17.2 million in the nine months ended September 2005 to $19.6 million in the nine months ended September 30,2006. As a percentage of revenues, software development costs, net increased from 4.5% in the first nine months of 2005 to 4.8% in the first nine months of 2006. The increase in software development costs was attributable primarily to the increase in research and developments expenditures in Formula Vision and BluePhoenix which had research and development expenditures of $7.2 million and $6.8 million respectively.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses . Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, severance and related expenses, travel expenses, selling expenses, rent, utilities, depreciation, amortization and professional fees. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased from $99.3 million in the nine months ended September 30,2005 to $103.6 million in the nine months ended September 30,2006. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses remained relatively the same in the first nine months of 2006 as in the comparable period in 2005. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of Matrix and Formula Vision which was offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in Magic and Sapiens.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Restructuring Costs. Restructuring costs in the first nine months of 2006 were $2.8 million and were primarily attributable to restructuring activities of Sapiens and Magic which had restructuring costs of $2.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Restructuring costs in the first nine months of 2005 were $1.1 million and were primarily attributable to restructuring activities of Sapiens. The restructuring costs of Sapiens resulted from the lay-off of approximately 40 employees.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Operating Income . Our operating income decreased from $13.4 million in the nine months ended September 30,2005 to $5.4 million in the nine months ended September 30,2006. The operating income in the first nine months of 2006 is attributable to the improvement in the operating results of our subsidiaries, and in particular Matrix which had operating income of $13.4 million, BluePhoenix which had operating income of $5.6 million and Sapiens which had operating loss of $0.9 million (compared to $4.5 million operating loss in the same period of 2005). The improvement was offset by the operating loss of $5.2 million of Magic and the operating loss of $6.5 million of Formula Vision. The operating income in the first nine months of 2005 was attributable to the improvement in the operating results of our subsidiaries, in particular Matrix which had operating income of $12.6 million, Formula Vision which had operating income of $5.8 million and BluePhoenix which had operating income of $2.4 million. This improvement was partially offset by the operating loss of $2.5 million and $4.6 million of Magic and Sapiens, respectively.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Financial Expenses, net . Financial expenses, net increased from $7.0 million in the nine months ended September 30,2005 to $8.7 million in the nine months ended September 30,2006. Financial expenses, net, is influenced by various factors, including our cash balances, loan balances, changes in the exchange rate of the NIS against the dollar, changes in the exchange rate of the dollar against the euro and changes in the Israeli CPI. This increase resulted from interest expenses incurred by our subsidiaries, and in particular, Matrix, BluePhoenix, Sapiens and Formula Vision, due to higher interest rates and higher loan balances.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Other Expenses, net . Other expenses, net in the first nine months of 2006 were $2.7 million and attributable mainly to Formula Vision. In the first nine months of 2005 we had other income of $567,000.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Gain on Realization of Shareholdings . Gain on realization of shareholdings in the nine months ended September 30,2006 was $14.3 million compared to $4.2 million in the nine months ended September 30,2005. Gain on realization of shareholdings in the first nine months of 2006 was attributable to Formula Vision due to a partial sale of its investments in its affiliates, FIS and Transtech, and a sale of the operation of its subsidiary T-Soft which resulted in gain to Formula Vision of $12.2 million. Gain on realization of shareholdings in the first nine months of 2005 was attributable to the sale of a portion of the shares of Matrix in the open market which resulted in gain to Formula of $1.7 million, and gain from a decrease in our shareholding in Matrix due to the conversion of Matrix debentures into shares by third parties which resulted in gain to Formula of $1.6 million. In addition, gain on realization of shareholdings included gain of $1.0 of Formula Vision due to a decrease in its shareholdings in its subsidiary FTS.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Taxes on Income. Taxes on income in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $0.9 million compared to $3.0 million in the nine months ended September 30,2005. The decrease in taxes on income in the first nine months of 2006 was mainly attributable to the decrease in taxes of Formula Vision, which had $1.8 million of negative provision for tax. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in taxes of Matrix.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Companys Equity in Results of Affiliates, net . Our equity in gains of affiliates, net were $1.1 million in the nine months ended September 30,2006 compared to $2.6 million equity losses in the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Minority Interest, net . Minority interest, net, includes the minority interest in companies which are not wholly owned by the Formula Group during each of the periods indicated. Minority interest in profits of subsidiaries in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $4.9 million compared to $2.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2005. This increase in minority interest, net is attributable to the net income of Matrix, BluePhoniex and Formula Vision which had net income of $11.1 million, $3.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively. These profits were offset by the net losses of Magic and Sapiens equal to $5.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively .
