Safe Harbor Cautionary Statement
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section titled “Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations” in Part I, Item 2, contains 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. Forward-looking statements consist of, among other things, trend analyses, statements regarding future events, future financial performance, our anticipated growth, the effect of general economic and market conditions, our business strategy and our plan to build and grow our business, our operating results, our ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses and technologies, the effect of foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations on our financial results, the impact of expensing stock-based compensation, the sufficiency of our capital resources, our ability to meet our ongoing debt and obligations as they become due, and potential litigation involving us, all of which are based on current expectations, estimates, and forecasts, and the beliefs and assumptions of our management. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “aims,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “likely,” “will,” “should,” “believes,” “estimates,” “seeks,” variations of such words, and similar expressions are also intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations expressed in the report include: general economic risks; lengthy sales and implementation cycles, particularly in larger organizations; uncertainty regarding increased business and renewals from existing customers; continued success in sales growth; management of integration of recently acquired companies and other risks associated with acquisitions; the ability to attract and retain key personnel; risks associated with successful implementation of multiple integrated software products; risks related to our dividend policy and stock repurchase program, including potential limitations on our ability to grow and the possibility that we might discontinue payment of dividends; risks relating to restrictions imposed by our credit facility; risks associated with management of growth; technological changes that make our products and services less competitive; and the other risk factors set forth from time to time in our SEC filings. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those summarized under Risk Factors in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, and our quarterly reports on Forms 10-Q. Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Also, forward-looking statements represent our management's beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by law, we do not intend, and undertake no obligation to revise or update these forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.

1. Organization
We provide cloud-based and on-premise software solutions and related services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations. Our products and services enable nonprofit organizations to increase donations, reduce fundraising costs, improve communications with constituents, manage their finances and optimize internal operations. As of June 30, 2014, we had more than 30,000 active customers distributed across multiple verticals within the nonprofit market including education, foundations, health and human services, religion, arts and cultural, public and societal benefits, environment and animal welfare, as well as international affairs.
2. Summary of significant accounting policies
Unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These consolidated statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to state fairly the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of cash flows and consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity, for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014, or any other future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations for interim reporting of the SEC. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, and other forms filed with the SEC from time to time.
In order to provide comparability between periods presented, amortization of software development costs and amortization of deferred financing costs and discount have been separated from other non-cash adjustments in the previously reported consolidated statements of cash flows to conform to the consolidated statement of cash flow presentation of the current period. After this change in presentation, amounts related to the amortization of software development costs are included in depreciation and amortization and amounts related to the amortization of deferred financing costs and discount are presented separately within cash flows from operating activities.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Blackbaud, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we reconsider and evaluate our estimates and assumptions, including those that impact revenue recognition, long-lived and finite-lived intangible assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation, the provision for income taxes, capitalization of software development costs, our allowances for sales returns and doubtful accounts, deferred sales commissions and professional services costs, the valuation of derivative instruments, our accounting for business combinations and loss contingencies. Changes in the facts or circumstances underlying these estimates could result in material changes and actual results could materially differ from these estimates.
Revenue recognition
Our revenue is primarily generated from the following sources: (i) charging for the use of our software products in a hosted environment; (ii) providing software maintenance and support services; (iii) providing professional services including

Notes to consolidated financial statements (continued)
(Unaudited)


implementation, training, consulting, analytic, hosting and other services; and (iv) selling perpetual licenses of our software products.
We recognize revenue when all of the following conditions are met:
•Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
•The products or services have been delivered;
•The fee is fixed or determinable; and
•Collection of the resulting receivable is probable.
Determining whether and when these criteria have been met can require significant judgment and estimates. We deem acceptance of an agreement to be evidence of an arrangement. Delivery of our services occurs when the services have been performed. Delivery of our products occurs when the product is shipped or transmitted, and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customers. Our typical agreements do not include customer acceptance provisions; however, if acceptance provisions are provided, delivery is deemed to occur upon acceptance. We consider the fee to be fixed or determinable unless the fee is subject to refund or adjustment or is not payable within our standard payment terms. Payment terms greater than 90 days are considered to be beyond our customary payment terms. Collection is deemed probable if we expect that the customer will be able to pay amounts under the arrangement as they become due. If we determine that collection is not probable, we defer revenue recognition until collection. Revenue is recognized net of sales returns and allowances.
We follow guidance provided in ASC 605-45, Principal Agent Considerations, which states that determining whether a company should recognize revenue based on the gross amount billed to a customer or the net amount retained is a matter of judgment that depends on the facts and circumstances of the arrangement and that certain factors should be considered in the evaluation.
Subscriptions
We provide hosting services to customers who have purchased perpetual rights to certain of our software products (“hosting services”). Revenue from hosting services, as well as data enrichment services, data management services and online training programs, is recognized ratably beginning on the activation date over the term of the agreement, which generally ranges from one to three years. Any related set-up fees are recognized ratably over the estimated period that the customer benefits from the related hosting service. The estimated period of benefit is evaluated on an annual basis using historical customer retention information by product or service.
We make certain of our software products available for use in hosted application arrangements without licensing perpetual rights to the software (“hosted applications”). Revenue from hosted applications is recognized ratably beginning on the activation date over the term of the agreement, which generally ranges from one to three years. Any revenue related to upfront activation or set-up fees is deferred and recognized ratably over the estimated period that the customer benefits from the related hosted application. Direct and incremental costs related to upfront activation or set-up activities for hosted applications are capitalized until the hosted application is deployed and in use, and then expensed ratably over the estimated period that the customer benefits from the related hosted application.
For arrangements that have multiple elements and do not include software licenses, we allocate arrangement consideration at the inception of the arrangement to those elements that qualify as separate units of accounting. The arrangement consideration is allocated to the separate units of accounting based on relative selling price method in accordance with the selling price hierarchy, which includes: (i) vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value if available; (ii) third-party evidence (“TPE”) if VSOE is not available; and (iii) best estimate of selling price (“BESP”) if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. In general, we use VSOE to allocate the selling price to subscription and service deliverables.
We offer certain payment processing services with the assistance of third-party vendors. In general, when we are the principal in a transaction based on the predominant weighting of factors identified in ASC 605-45, we record the revenue and related costs on a gross basis. Otherwise, we net the cost of revenue associated with the service against the gross amount billed to the customer and record the net amount as revenue.

Revenue from transaction processing services is recognized when the service is provided and the amounts are determinable. Revenue directly associated with processing donations for customers are included in subscriptions revenue.
License fees
We sell perpetual software licenses with maintenance, varying levels of professional services and, in certain instances, with hosting services. We allocate revenue to each of the elements in these arrangements using the residual method under which we first allocate revenue to the undelivered elements, typically the non-software license components, based on VSOE of fair value of the various elements. We determine VSOE of fair value of the various elements using different methods. VSOE of fair value for maintenance services associated with software licenses is based upon renewal rates stated in the agreements with customers, which demonstrate a consistent relationship of maintenance pricing as a percentage of the contractual license fee. VSOE of fair value of professional services and other products and services is based on the average selling price of these same products and services to other customers when sold on a stand-alone basis. Any remaining revenue is allocated to the delivered elements, which is normally the software license in the arrangement. In general, revenue is recognized for software licenses upon delivery to our customers.
When a software license is sold with software customization services, generally the services are to provide the customer assistance in creating special reports and other enhancements that will improve operational efficiency and/or help to support business process improvements. These services are generally not essential to the functionality of the software and the related revenues are recognized either as the services are delivered or upon completion. However, when software customization services are considered essential to the functionality of the software, we recognize revenue for both the software license and the services using the percentage-of-completion method.
Services
We generally bill consulting, installation and implementation services based on hourly rates plus reimbursable travel-related expenses. Revenue is recognized for these services over the period the services are delivered.
We recognize analytic services revenue from donor prospect research engagements, the sale of lists of potential donors, benchmarking studies and data modeling service engagements upon delivery. In arrangements where we provide customers the right to updates to the lists during the contract period, revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period.
We sell training at a fixed rate for each specific class at a per attendee price or at a packaged price for several attendees, and recognize the related revenue upon the customer attending and completing training. Additionally, we sell fixed-rate programs, which permit customers to attend unlimited training over a specified contract period, typically one year, subject to certain restrictions, and revenue in those cases is recognized ratably over the contract period.
Maintenance
We recognize revenue from maintenance services ratably over the contract term, typically one year. Maintenance contracts are at rates that vary according to the level of the maintenance program associated with the software product and are generally renewable annually. Maintenance contracts may also include the right to unspecified product upgrades on an if-and-when available basis. Certain support services are sold in prepaid units of time and recognized as revenue upon their usage.
Deferred revenue
To the extent that our customers are billed for the above described services in advance of delivery, we record such amounts in deferred revenue.

Fair value measurements
We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including derivative instruments. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received upon purchase of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use a three-tier fair value hierarchy to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows:
•
Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
•
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
•
Level 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.
Our financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety within the hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to fair value measurement. Changes to a financial asset's or liability's level within the fair value hierarchy are determined as of the end of a reporting period. All methods of assessing fair value result in a general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
Effective January 1, 2014, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. Under ASU 2013-11, an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward or a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. An entity should apply ASU 2014-09 either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at the date of initial application. We expect the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will impact our consolidated financial statements. We are currently evaluating implementation methods and the extent of the impact that implementation of this standard will have upon adoption.
3. Business combinations
WhippleHill
On June 16, 2014, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of WhippleHill Communications, Inc. (“WhippleHill”), a privately held company based in New Hampshire, for $35.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the stock purchase agreement. WhippleHill is a leading provider of cloud-based solutions designed exclusively to serve K12 private schools. The acquisition of WhippleHill expanded our offerings in the K12 technology sector. The operating results of WhippleHill which were insignificant to the periods presented have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Acquisition-related costs of $0.1 million, which primarily consisted of legal and financial advisory services, were expensed as incurred in general and administrative expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

We recorded $19.0 million of finite-lived intangible assets, $12.3 million of goodwill ($11.8 million of which is deductible for income tax purposes) and $3.7 million of net tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed associated with this acquisition based on our preliminary determination of estimated fair values. Included in net tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed was $5.1 million of acquired accounts receivable, for which fair value was estimated to approximate the contractual value. The assets and liabilities recorded for the acquisition of WhippleHill were based on preliminary valuations and the estimates and assumptions are subject to change as we obtain additional information during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. The estimated goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to the opportunities for expected synergies from combining operations and the assembled workforce of WhippleHill, all of which was assigned to our General Markets Business Unit reporting segment.
The acquisition resulted in the identification of the following identifiable finite-lived intangible assets:

4. Earnings per share
We compute basic earnings per share by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the assumed exercise, settlement and vesting of all dilutive securities using the “treasury stock method” except when the effect is anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, settlement of stock appreciation rights and vesting of restricted stock awards and units.

The fair value of our interest rate swaps was based on model-driven valuations using LIBOR rates, which are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Accordingly, our interest rate swaps are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
We believe the carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, donor restricted cash, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and donations payable approximate their fair values at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these instruments.

Financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include finite-lived intangible assets, goodwill and our debt. Intangible assets and goodwill are recognized at fair value in the period in which an acquisition is completed, or when they are considered to be impaired. We believe the carrying amount of our debt approximates its fair value at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, as the debt bears interest rates that approximate market value. As LIBOR rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals, it is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. There were no non-recurring fair value adjustments recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013, except for certain business combination accounting adjustments to the initial fair value estimates of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, from refinement during the measurement period. The measurement period for refinement may be up to one year from the acquisition date. We record adjustments to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill.

We were previously party to a $325.0 million five-year credit facility entered into during February 2012. The credit facility included: a dollar and a designated currency revolving credit facility with sublimits for letters of credit and swingline loans (the “2012 Revolving Facility”) and a delayed draw term loan (the “2012 Term Loan”)(together, the “2012 Credit Facility”).
2014 Refinancing
In February 2014, we entered into a five-year $325.0 million credit facility (the “2014 Credit Facility”) and drew $175.0 million on a term loan upon closing, which was used to repay all amounts outstanding under the 2012 Credit Facility.
The 2014 Credit Facility includes the following facilities: (i) a dollar and a designated currency revolving credit facility with sublimits for letters of credit and swingline loans (the “2014 Revolving Facility”) and (ii) a term loan facility (the “2014 Term Loan”).
Certain investors of the 2012 Term Loan reinvested in the 2014 Term Loan and the change in the present value of our future cash flows to these investors under the 2012 Term Loan and under the 2014 Term Loan was less than 10%. Accordingly, we accounted for the refinancing event for these investors as a debt modification. Certain investors of the 2012 Term Loan did not invest in the 2014 Term Loan. Accordingly, we accounted for the refinancing event for these investors as a debt extinguishment. Certain investors of the 2012 Revolving Facility reinvested in the 2014 Revolving Facility and provided increased borrowing capacities. Accordingly, we accounted for the refinancing event for these investors as a debt modification. Certain investors of the 2012 Revolving Facility did not invest in the 2014 Revolving Facility. Accordingly, we accounted for the refinancing event for these investors as a debt extinguishment.

We recorded a $0.4 million loss on debt extinguishment related to the write-off of deferred financing costs for the portions of the 2012 Credit Facility considered to be extinguished. This loss was recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income within loss on debt extinguishment and termination of derivative instruments.
In connection with our entry into the 2014 Credit Facility we paid $2.5 million in financing costs, of which $1.1 million were capitalized and, together with a portion of the unamortized deferred financing costs from the 2012 Credit Facility and prior facilities, are being amortized into interest expense over the term of the new facility using the effective interest method. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, deferred financing costs totaling $1.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively, were included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.
Summary of the 2014 Credit Facility
The 2014 Credit Facility is secured by the stock and limited liability company interests of certain of our subsidiaries and is guaranteed by our material domestic subsidiaries.
Amounts borrowed under the dollar tranche revolving credit loans and term loan under the 2014 Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, (a) a base rate equal to the highest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (iii) one month LIBOR plus 1.00% (the “Base Rate”), in addition to a margin of 0.00% to 0.50%, or (b) LIBOR rate plus a margin of 1.00% to 1.50%. Swingline loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus a margin of 0.00% to 0.50% or such other rate agreed to between the Swingline lender and us. Designated currency tranche revolving credit loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR rate for the applicable currency plus a margin of 1.00% to 1.50%. The exact amount of any margin depends on the nature of the loan (Base Rate or LIBOR) and our net leverage ratio (as defined in the 2014 Credit Facility).
We also pay a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the 2014 Revolving Facility from 0.15% to 0.225% per annum, depending on our net leverage ratio. At June 30, 2014, the commitment fee was 0.225%.
The term loan under the 2014 Credit Facility requires periodic principal payments. The balance of the term loan and any amounts drawn on the revolving credit loans are due upon maturity of the 2014 Credit Facility in February 2019. We evaluate the classification of our debt as current or non-current based on the required annual maturities of the 2014 Credit Facility.
The 2014 Credit Facility includes financial covenants related to the net leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio, as well as restrictions on our ability to declare and pay dividends and our ability to repurchase shares of our common stock. At June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with our debt covenants under the 2014 Credit Facility.

11. Derivative instruments
We use derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk. In February 2014, in connection with the refinancing of our debt, we terminated the two interest rate swap agreements associated with the 2012 Credit Facility. As part of the settlement of our swap liability, we recorded a loss of $0.6 million, which was recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income within loss on debt extinguishment and termination of derivative instruments and resulted in a recognized tax benefit of $0.2 million.
In March 2014, we entered into a new interest rate swap agreement, which effectively converts portions of our variable rate debt under the 2014 Credit Facility to a fixed rate for the term of the swap agreement. The initial notional value of the new swap agreement was $125.0 million with an effective date beginning in March 2014. In March 2017, the notional value of the swap agreement will decrease to $75.0 million for the remaining term through February 2018. We designated the swap agreement as a cash flow hedge at the inception of the contract.
The fair values of our derivative instruments were as follows as of:

Our policy requires that derivatives used for hedging purposes be designated and effective as a hedge of the identified risk exposure at the inception of the contract. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized gains or losses from the change in fair value measurement of our derivative instruments each reporting period and the related income tax expense or benefit. Changes in the fair value measurements of the derivative instruments and the related income tax expense or benefit are reflected as adjustments to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the actual hedged expense is incurred or until the hedge is terminated at which point the unrealized gain (loss) is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to current earnings. There was no ineffective portion of our interest rate swap derivatives during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. See Note 15 for a summary of other changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by component.

12. Commitments and contingencies
Leases
We lease our headquarters facility under a 15-year lease agreement which was entered into in October 2008, and has two five-year renewal options. The current annual base rent of the lease is $4.0 million, payable in equal monthly installments. The base rent escalates annually at a rate equal to the change in the consumer price index, as defined in the agreement, but not to exceed 5.5% in any year.
With our acquisition of Convio, we assumed a lease for office space in Austin, Texas which terminates on September 30, 2023, and has two five-year renewal options. Under the terms of the lease, we will increase our leased space by approximately 20,000 square feet on July 31, 2016. The current annual base rent of the lease is $2.2 million. The base rent escalates annually between 2% and 4% based on the terms of the agreement. The rent expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the length of the lease term. At June 30, 2014, we had a standby letter of credit of $2.0 million for a security deposit for this lease.
We have provisions in our leases that entitle us to aggregate leasehold improvement allowances of $9.5 million. These amounts are being recorded as a reduction to rent expense ratably over the terms of the leases. Rent expense was reduced related to these lease provisions by $0.2 million and $0.3 million during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The leasehold improvement allowances have been included in the table of operating lease commitments below as a reduction in our lease commitments ratably over the then remaining terms of the leases. The timing of the reimbursements for the actual leasehold improvements may vary from the amounts reflected in the table below.
We have also received, and expect to receive through 2016, quarterly South Carolina state incentive payments as a result of locating our headquarters facility in Berkeley County, South Carolina. These amounts are recorded as a reduction of rent expense upon receipt and were $0.6 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $1.2 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Total rent expense was $2.3 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
As of June 30, 2014, the future minimum lease commitments related to lease agreements, net of related lease incentives, were as follows:

Other commitments
As discussed in Note 10 of these consolidated financial statements, the term loans under our credit facility require periodic principal payments. The balance of the term loans and any amounts drawn on the revolving credit loans are due upon maturity of the credit facility in February 2019.
We utilize third-party technology in conjunction with our products and services, with contractual arrangements varying in length from one to five years. In certain cases, these arrangements require a minimum annual purchase commitment. As of June 30, 2014, the remaining aggregate minimum purchase commitment under these arrangements was approximately $15.1 million through 2018. We incurred expense under these arrangements of $1.7 million and $3.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

Legal contingencies
We are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. We record an accrual for a contingency when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We do not believe the amount of potential liability with respect to these actions will have a material adverse effect upon our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
13. Income taxes

%
The decrease in our effective income tax rate during the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily due to a reduction in operating losses of foreign jurisdictions for which we have determined that a related valuation allowance is appropriate.
The decrease in our effective income tax rate during the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily due to a reduction in operating losses of foreign jurisdictions for which we have determined that a related valuation allowance is appropriate, partially offset by a decrease in the benefit from research and development credits. The federal and state research and development tax credits, which had previously expired on December 31, 2011, were reinstated as part of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 enacted in January 2013. This legislation retroactively reinstated and extended the credits from the previous expiration date through December 31, 2013, resulting in a discrete tax benefit attributable to 2012 research and development tax credits of $1.9 million which is included in the six months ended June 30, 2013. No similar legislation providing an extension for prior period credits was in effect during the six months ended June 30, 2014. Our effective income tax rate may fluctuate quarterly as a result of factors, including transactions entered into, changes in the geographic distribution of our earnings or losses, our assessment of certain tax contingencies, valuation allowances, and changes in tax law in jurisdictions where we conduct business.
We have deferred tax assets for federal, state, and international net operating loss carryforwards and state tax credits. The federal and state net operating loss carryforwards are subject to various Internal Revenue Code limitations and applicable state tax laws. A portion of the foreign and state net operating loss carryforwards and a portion of state tax credits have a valuation reserve due to the uncertainty of realizing such carryforwards and credits in the future.
The total amount of unrecognized tax benefit that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate, was $3.6 million and $3.7 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. We recognize accrued interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

16. Segment information
As of June 30, 2014, our reportable segments were the Enterprise Customer Business Unit (the “ECBU”), the General Markets Business Unit, (the “GMBU”), the International Business Unit (the “IBU”), and Target Analytics. Following is a description of each reportable segment:
•
The ECBU is focused on marketing, sales, delivery and support to all large and/or strategic prospects and customers in North America;

•
The GMBU is focused on marketing, sales, delivery and support to all emerging and mid-sized prospects and customers in North America;

•
The IBU is focused on marketing, sales, delivery and support to all prospects and customers outside of North America; and

•
Target Analytics is focused on marketing, sales and delivery of analytic services to all prospects and customers globally.
Our chief operating decision maker is our chief executive officer, or CEO. The CEO reviews financial information presented on an operating segment basis for the purposes of making certain operating decisions and assessing financial performance. The CEO uses internal financial reports that provide segment revenues and operating income, excluding stock-based compensation expense, amortization expense, depreciation expense, research and development expense and certain corporate sales, marketing,

general and administrative expenses. Currently, the CEO believes that the exclusion of these costs allows for a better understanding of the operating performance of the operating units and management of other operating expenses and cash needs. The CEO does not review any segment balance sheet information.

17. Restructuring
During 2012, in an effort to consolidate our operating locations, we decided not to renew our lease for office space in San Diego, CA, which matured on June 30, 2013. As a result, we initiated a plan to transition most of our operations based in San Diego, CA to our Austin, TX location, which we substantially completed in June 2013 when the lease matured. We incurred $0.1 million and $0.2 million in before-tax restructuring charges related to our San Diego office transition during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectfully.
In January 2013, we implemented a realignment of our workforce in response to changes in the nonprofit industry and global economy. The realignment included a reduction in workforce of approximately 135 positions. The cost associated with this realignment was substantially incurred during the first nine months of 2013. We incurred $3.2 million in before-tax

restructuring charges related to the realignment of our workforce during the six months ended June 30, 2013. The charges incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2013 were insignificant.

Item 2. Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations


The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This report contains 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. These forward-looking statements reflect our current view with respect to future events and financial performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those set forth under “Safe Harbor Cautionary Statement” at the beginning of this report and elsewhere in this report, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical or anticipated results. Except as required by law, we do not intend, and undertake no obligation to revise or update these forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.
Executive summary
We provide cloud-based and on-premise software solutions and related services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations. Our products and services enable nonprofit organizations to increase donations, reduce fundraising costs, improve communications with constituents, manage their finances and optimize internal operations. We continue to make investments in our product portfolio and go-to-market organization to ensure we are properly positioned to benefit from shifts in the market, including demand for our subscription-based offerings. As of June 30, 2014, we had more than 30,000 active customers distributed across multiple verticals within the nonprofit market including education, foundations, health and human services, religion, arts and cultural, public and societal benefits, environment and animal welfare, as well as international affairs.
We derive revenue from charging subscription fees for the use of our cloud-based solutions, selling perpetual licenses and providing a broad offering of services, including consulting, training, installation and implementation services, as well as ongoing customer support and maintenance. Furthermore, we derive revenue from providing hosting services, performing donor prospect research engagements, selling lists of potential donors, providing transaction and payment processing services, benchmarking studies and data modeling services. We have experienced growth in our payment processing services from the continued shift to on-line giving, further integration of these services to our existing product portfolio and the sale of these services to new and existing customers. As a result of third-party contractual changes, certain of our subscriptions revenues and costs associated with our payment processing services are presented on a gross basis, whereas comparable revenues and costs are presented on a net basis in the prior year periods. As such, total revenue, total cost of revenue, subscriptions revenue and cost of subscriptions revenue for prior periods are not directly comparable, although gross profit, operating income and net income were unaffected by the prospective change, which became effective October 2013. An analysis of our historical financial statements for the four quarters and year ended December 31, 2013 can be found at www.blackbaud.com/investorrelations that is intended to assist with the evaluation of our performance in light of the change in presentation.
During the second quarter of 2014, we remained focused on our four primary priorities:
•
accelerating organic revenue growth;
•
optimizing our product portfolio;
•
increasing recurring revenue; and
•
investing in infrastructure to drive future operating efficiencies.
Total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 increased by approximately 11% when compared to the same periods in 2013, respectively. When removing the impact attributable to the change in presentation referenced above, revenue increased 5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013. These increases were primarily the result of growth in demand for our cloud-based and hosted fundraising solutions as our business continues to shift towards subscription-based offerings. Increases in the volume of transactions for which we process payments as well as variable transactions associated with the use of our solutions to fundraise online added to the increases in subscriptions revenue.
Income from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 increased by $1.7 million and $6.4 million, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2013. The increases in income from operations were primarily attributable to an increase in demand for our subscription-based fundraising offerings, an increase in the volume of transactions for which we process payments and an increase in transaction-based usage revenue. Also contributing to the increases in income from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 were decreases in restructuring costs, stock-based compensation and acquisition-related integration costs. These favorable impacts on income

from operations were partially offset by the 2014 incremental operating investments targeted to drive the success of our four primary priorities referenced above.
At June 30, 2014, our cash and cash equivalents were $24.8 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we generated $45.1 million in cash flow from operations, received $19.6 million in net proceeds from debt refinancing, used net cash of $32.6 million for the acquisition of WhippleHill, returned $11.1 million to stockholders by way of dividends and had cash outlays of $9.3 million for purchases of property and equipment and software development costs.
During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we continued to experience growth in overall revenue primarily driven by the growing demand for our cloud-based and hosted fundraising solutions and payment processing services. We plan to further increase our focus on subscription-based offerings and expand our payment processing services as we execute on our key growth initiatives and strengthen our leadership position, while achieving our targeted level of profitability. In the near term, we anticipate that there will continue to be an impact on our profitability as we invest in our product portfolio to meet demand for our subscription offerings and shift from a perpetual license-based model, with upfront revenue recognition to a subscription-based model, with recognition of revenue occurring ratably over the subscription term. In the near term, we also anticipate that there will continue to be an impact from our payment processing services on our overall gross margin percentage as growth in the volume of transactions where we provide payment processing services is expected to exceed the growth of certain other product and service offerings.
We also plan to continue to invest in our product, sales and marketing organizations and our back-office processes; the infrastructure that supports our subscription-based offerings and certain product development initiatives to achieve optimal scalability of our operations as we execute on our key growth initiatives.
Recent developments
Debt refinancing
In February 2014, we entered into a five-year $325.0 million credit facility and drew $175.0 million on a term loan upon closing, which was used to repay all amounts outstanding under our previous credit facility. The credit facility includes the following facilities: (i) a dollar and a designated currency revolving credit facility with sublimits for letters of credit and swingline loans, and (ii) a term loan facility. The credit facility is secured by the stock and limited liability company interests of certain of our subsidiaries and is guaranteed by our material domestic subsidiaries.
WhippleHill acquisition
On June 16, 2014, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of WhippleHill Communications, Inc. (“WhippleHill”), a privately held company based in New Hampshire, for $35.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the stock purchase agreement. WhippleHill is a leading provider of cloud-based solutions designed exclusively to serve K12 private schools. The acquisition of WhippleHill expanded our offerings in the K12 technology sector. The operating results of WhippleHill which were insignificant to the periods presented have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Included in ECBU, GMBU and IBU revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $2.4 million, $4.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively, attributable to the prospective change in presentation from net to gross for revenue and costs associated with our payment processing services as a result of certain third-party arrangements that had changes in contractual terms effective October 2013. Included in ECBU, GMBU and IBU revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $4.6 million, $8.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively, attributable to this same presentation change.

The increases in revenue for ECBU and GMBU during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 were primarily attributable to growth in subscriptions revenue. The growth in subscriptions resulted from an increase in demand for our cloud-based and hosted fundraising offerings, an increase in the volume of transactions for which we process payments and an increase in usage-based transaction revenue. Also contributing to the growth in ECBU and GMBU revenue were increases in maintenance revenue primarily from new customers associated with new license agreements and increases in contracts with existing customers.

IBU revenue increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 primarily due to incremental subscriptions revenue. The growth in IBU subscriptions revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in demand for our cloud-based solutions including Everyday Hero and eTapestry and for our hosted fundraising solutions including the Raiser's Edge. Also contributing to the increase in IBU subscriptions revenue was an increase in the volume of transactions associated with the use of our products to fundraise online. IBU maintenance revenue associated with sales of the Raiser's Edge increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013.

Target Analytics revenue remained relatively unchanged during the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013. The growth in Target Analytics revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily the result of an increase in demand for our subscription-based analytic service offerings. We anticipate incremental growth in this area as demand continues to increase and as we continue to integrate these services into certain of our other subscription and service offerings.

We derive license fees revenue from the sale of our software products under perpetual license agreements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, revenue from license fees decreased primarily as a result of smaller contributions of revenue from our Blackbaud CRM and Raiser's Edge offerings when compared to the same periods in 2013. Our larger perpetual license transactions, such as those for Blackbaud CRM, have long sales cycles and their timing can result in significant period-to-period variations in revenue. Additionally, we continue to experience a shift in our emerging and mid-sized customers’ buying
preferences away from solutions offered under perpetual license arrangements towards subscription-based hosted applications.
Cost of license fees is primarily comprised of third-party software royalties, variable reseller commissions, amortization of software development costs and amortization of intangibles from business combinations. The decrease in cost of license fees during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily due to a reduction in reseller commissions and fewer sales of products with associated third-party royalty costs. The decrease in reseller commissions was primarily due to improvements in the negotiated rates we pay software resellers.
License fees gross margin percentage during the three months ended June 30, 2014 remained relatively unchanged. The increase in license fees gross margin percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily due to the decrease in reseller commissions and less sales of products with third-party software royalties associated with them relative to the decrease in license fees revenue.

Included in subscriptions revenue and cost of subscriptions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $7.5 million and $13.6 million, respectively, attributable to the prospective change in presentation from net to gross for revenue and costs associated with our payment processing services as a result of certain third-party arrangements that had changes in contractual terms effective October 2013.

Revenue from subscriptions is primarily comprised of revenue from charging for the use of our subscription-based software products, which includes providing access to hosted applications and hosting services, access to certain data services and our online subscription training offerings, revenue from payment processing services as well as variable transaction revenue associated with the use of our products to fundraise online. We continue to experience growth in sales of our hosted applications and hosting services as we meet the demand of our emerging and mid-sized customers that increasingly prefer subscription-based offerings. In addition, we have experienced growth in our payment processing services from the continued shift to on-line giving, further integration of these services to our existing product portfolio and the sale of these services to new and existing customers.

Excluding the effect of the change in presentation associated with our payment processing services as discussed above, the increase in subscriptions revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily due an increase in demand for our cloud-based solutions including Luminate Online and Altru and for our

hosted fundraising solutions including the Raiser's Edge and Blackbaud CRM. Subscriptions revenue also increased as a result of greater volume of transactions for which we process payments and an increase in usage-based transaction revenue.
Cost of subscriptions is primarily comprised of human resource costs, stock-based compensation expense, third-party royalty and data expenses, hosting expenses, allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs, amortization of intangibles from business combinations and other costs incurred in providing support and services to our customers.
Excluding the effects of the change in presentation associated with our payment processing services as discussed above, the increases in cost of subscriptions during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 were primarily due to an increase in human resource costs of $2.3 million and $4.5 million, respectively, and an increase in allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs of $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The increase in human resource costs was primarily due to an increase in subscription customer support directly related to our growing base of subscription customers. The increase in allocated costs was primarily a result of investments made to support anticipated growth in our operations.
The decrease in subscriptions gross margin percentages for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily a result of the prospective change in presentation from net to gross revenues and costs as discussed above, which had no impact on gross profit. Absent this presentation change, subscriptions gross margin percentages were 58% and 56% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to 58% and 58% in the same periods in 2013, respectively. The remaining decrease in subscriptions gross margin percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily due to increases in human resource costs and allocated costs outpacing the growth in subscriptions revenue. In the near term, we anticipate that there will continue to be a negative impact from our payment processing services on our subscriptions gross margin percentage as growth in the volume of transactions where we provide payment processing services is expected to exceed the growth of certain of our other subscription-based offerings.

We derive services revenue from consulting, installation, implementation, education and analytic services. Consulting, installation and implementation services involve converting data from a customer’s existing system, assistance in file set up and system configuration, and/or process re-engineering. Education services involve customer training activities. Analytic services are comprised of donor prospect research, sales of lists of potential donors, benchmarking studies and data modeling services. These analytic services involve the assessment of current and prospective donor information of the customer and are performed using our proprietary analytical tools. The end product is intended to enable organizations to more effectively target their fundraising activities.
Services revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 remained relatively unchanged. The continuing shift in our go-to-market strategy towards subscription-based and cloud-based offerings, which, in general, require less implementation services than our traditional on-premise perpetual license arrangements has negatively impacted consulting services revenue growth.
Cost of services is primarily comprised of human resource costs, stock-based compensation expense, third-party contractor expenses, classroom rentals, costs incurred in providing customer training, data expense incurred to perform analytic services, allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs and amortization of intangibles from business combinations.
The decrease in cost of services during the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily attributable to a decrease in human resource costs, partially offset by increases in the recognition of deferred implementation service costs, and allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs. Human resource costs decreased primarily as a result of a decrease in headcount and an increase in operating efficiency. Our recognition of implementation

service costs increased during the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 due to a decrease in the amount of costs that are being deferred in connection with our shift from traditional license and related service arrangements to subscription offerings. The increases in allocated costs were primarily a result of investments made to support anticipated growth in operations.
Cost of services during the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 remained relatively unchanged.
Services gross margin percentage increased during the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 primarily due to the decrease in human resource costs relative to the minor change in services revenue. Services gross margin percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 remained relatively unchanged.

Revenue from maintenance is comprised of annual fees derived from maintenance contracts associated with new software licenses and annual renewals of existing maintenance contracts. These contracts provide customers with updates, enhancements and upgrades to our software products and online, telephone and email support. Maintenance contracts are typically for a term of one year, and maintenance renewal rates in the periods reported did not vary materially compared to prior periods.
The increase in maintenance revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily comprised of (i) $2.4 million of incremental maintenance from new customers associated with new license agreements and increases in contracts with existing customers; and (ii) approximately $1.0 million of incremental maintenance from contractual inflationary rate adjustments; partially offset by (iii) a $1.6 million reduction in maintenance from contracts that were not renewed and reductions in contracts with existing customers.
The increase in maintenance revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily comprised of (i) $5.2 million of incremental maintenance from new customers associated with new license agreements and increases in contracts with existing customers; and (ii) approximately $2.1 million of incremental maintenance from contractual inflationary rate adjustments; partially offset by (iii) a $3.5 million reduction in maintenance from contracts that were not renewed and reductions in contracts with existing customers.
Cost of maintenance is primarily comprised of human resource costs, stock-based compensation expense, third-party contractor expenses, third-party royalty costs, allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs, amortization of intangibles from business combinations and other costs incurred in providing support and services to our customers. Cost of maintenance decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 primarily as a result of a decrease in human resource costs. The decrease in human resource costs was primarily due to a shift in allocated customer support costs towards subscriptions, which is a trend that may continue.
Maintenance gross margin percentage increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 primarily due to the incremental maintenance revenue from new customers associated with new license agreements and increases in contracts with existing customers combined with the decrease in human resource costs.

Other revenue includes the sale of business forms that are used in conjunction with our software products, reimbursement of travel-related expenses primarily incurred during the performance of services at customer locations, fees from user conferences and third-party software referral fees. Other revenue decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 primarily due to the prospective change in presentation from gross to net for revenue and costs associated with certain third-party software arrangements that had a change in contractual terms effective October 2013. A decrease in revenue from reimbursement of travel-related expenses associated with services revenue also contributed to the decrease in other revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013.
Cost of other revenue includes human resource costs, costs of business forms, costs of user conferences, reimbursable expenses relating to the performance of services at customer locations, allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs and amortization of intangibles from business combinations. Cost of other revenue decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 primarily due to a prospective change in presentation from gross to net for revenue and costs associated with certain third-party software arrangements that had a change in contractual terms effective October 2013. Also contributing to the decrease in cost of other revenue was less reimbursable expenses related to services provided at customer locations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013.

Sales and marketing expense includes human resource costs, stock-based compensation expense, travel-related expenses, sales commissions, advertising and marketing materials, public relations costs and allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs.

Sales and marketing expense increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 primarily due to increases in commission expense, human resource costs and allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs. The increase in commission expense was primarily driven by an to an increase in commissionable revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013. Also contributing to the increase in commissions expense was an increase in the amount of deferred sales commissions recognized as expense. To the extent that sales commissions relate to revenue not yet recognized, the amounts are recorded as deferred sales commission costs. Subsequently, the commissions are recognized as expense as the revenue is earned. Human resource costs increased primarily due to incremental headcount to support the increase in sales and marketing efforts of our growing operations. Allocated costs increased primarily as a result of investments made to support anticipated growth in operations.

Sales and marketing expense as a percentage of revenue remained relatively unchanged during the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013. Sales and marketing expense decreased as a percentage of revenue during the

Research and development expense includes human resource costs, stock-based compensation expense, third-party contractor expenses, software development tools and other expenses related to developing new products, upgrading and enhancing existing products, and allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs.

Research and development expense increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 primarily due to increases in third-party contractor costs and human resource costs, partially offset by increases in the amount of software development costs that were capitalized. Third-party contractor costs increased as we made investments to optimize our product portfolio including enhancements to existing products as well as new product innovation. Included in the increases in research and development expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 were $1.8 million and $2.9 million, respectively, related to our 2014 incremental operating investments. We expect additional incremental research and development expense for the remainder of 2014 as we continue with these efforts.

General and administrative expense consists primarily of human resource costs for general corporate functions, including senior management, finance, accounting, legal, human resources and corporate development, stock-based compensation expense, third-party professional fees, insurance, allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs, acquisition-related expense and other administrative expenses.

General and administrative expense increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, when compared to the same periods in 2013, primarily due to increases in human resource and facilities costs. Partially offsetting these increases were decreases in third-party contractor fees and stock-based compensation. Human resource costs increased primarily due to additional resources needed to support the growth of our business. The decrease in third-party contractor fees was primarily attributable to one-time costs incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 for the implementation of certain back-office systems as well as our CEO search.
Non-GAAP financial measures
The operating results analyzed below are presented on a non-GAAP basis. We use non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP operating margin internally in analyzing our operational performance. Accordingly, we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance. While we believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful supplemental information, non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be completely comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation between companies.
Non-GAAP financial measures discussed below exclude the impact of (i) a write-down of acquisition-related deferred revenue; (ii) stock-based compensation expense; (iii) amortization of intangibles from business combinations; (iv) impairment of capitalized software development costs due to business combinations; (v) acquisition-related integration costs; (vi) acquisition-

related expenses; (vii) CEO transition costs; and (viii) restructuring costs, because we believe they are not directly related to our operating performance in any particular period, but are for our long-term benefit over multiple periods. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons and analysis of trends in our business.

For purposes of calculating non-GAAP operating margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, non-GAAP revenue includes a write-down of acquisition-related deferred revenue of $0.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively.
The decreases in non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP operating margin percentages during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same periods in 2013 were primarily due to the 2014 incremental operating investments targeted to drive the success of our four primary priorities - accelerating organic revenue growth, optimizing the company's product portfolio, increasing recurring revenue and increasing operating efficiencies. Also contributing to the decreases in non-GAAP operating margin percentages during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was a prospective change from net to gross for revenue and costs associated with our payment processing services as a result of certain third-party arrangements that had changes in contractual terms effective October 2013. While this change in presentation affected our non-GAAP operating margin percentages, the dollar amounts of non-GAAP income from operations were unaffected.
Restructuring
Restructuring costs consist primarily of severance and termination benefits associated with the realignment of our workforce in response to changes in the nonprofit industry and global economy, as well as the move of most of our San Diego, California operations to our Austin, Texas location. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we incurred approximately $0.2 million and $3.4 million, respectfully, in before-tax restructuring charges related to these activities. We had no restructuring activities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.
Interest expense
Interest expense decreased $0.2 million and $0.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2013 primarily due to the decrease in our debt balance and the related effective interest rate.

To the extent that our customers are billed for our products and services in advance of delivery, we record such amounts in deferred revenue. Deferred revenue attributable to subscriptions increased during the six months ended June 30, 2014 primarily as a result of an increase in sales and a seasonal increase in billings for subscription renewals. Historically, due to the timing of client budget cycles, we have an increase in customer contract renewals in our second quarter as compared to our fourth quarter. We generally invoice our maintenance and subscription customers in annual cycles 30 days prior to the end of the contract term. The increase in deferred revenue from license fees and other during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily due to a seasonal increase in advance registration billings associated with our annual user conference, which occurs in October each year. Deferred revenue from maintenance and services remained relatively unchanged during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

The decrease in our effective income tax rate during the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily due to a reduction in operating losses of foreign jurisdictions for which we have determined that a related valuation allowance is appropriate.
The decrease in our effective income tax rate during the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily due to a reduction in operating losses of foreign jurisdictions for which we have determined that a related valuation allowance is appropriate, partially offset by a decrease in the benefit from research and development credits. The federal and state research and development tax credits, which had previously expired on December 31, 2011, were reinstated as part of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 enacted in January 2013. This legislation retroactively reinstated and extended the credits from the previous expiration date through December 31, 2013, resulting in a discrete tax benefit attributable to 2012 research and development tax credits of $1.9 million which is included in the six months ended June 30, 2013. No similar legislation was in effect during the six months ended June 30, 2014. Our effective income tax rate may fluctuate quarterly as a result of factors, including transactions entered into, changes in the geographic distribution of our earnings or losses, our assessment of certain tax contingencies, valuation allowances, and changes in tax law in jurisdictions where we conduct business.
We have deferred tax assets for federal, state, and international net operating loss carryforwards and state tax credits. The federal and state net operating loss carryforwards are subject to various Internal Revenue Code limitations and applicable state tax laws. A portion of the foreign and state net operating loss carryforwards and a portion of state tax credits have a valuation reserve due to the uncertainty of realizing such carryforwards and credits in the future.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefit that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate, was $3.6 million and $3.7 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. We recognize accrued interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.
Seasonality
Our revenues normally fluctuate as a result of certain seasonal variations in our business. Our revenue from professional services has historically been lower in the first quarter when many of those services commence and in the fourth quarter due to the holiday season. In addition, our transaction revenue has historically been at its lowest in the first quarter due to the timing of customer fundraising initiatives and events. As a result of these and other factors, our total revenue is lower in the first quarter than in the remainder of our fiscal year, with the third and fourth quarters historically achieving the highest total revenues. Our expenses, however, do not vary significantly as a result of these factors, but do fluctuate on a quarterly basis due to varying timing of expenditures. Our cash flow from operations normally fluctuates quarterly due to the combination of the timing of customer contract renewals, delivery of professional services and occurrence of customer events as well as the payment of bonuses, among other factors. Historically, due to lower revenues in our first quarter, combined with the payment of bonuses from the prior year in our first quarter, our cash flow from operations is lowest in our first quarter, and due to the timing of client budget cycles, our cash flow from operations is lower in our second quarter as compared to our third and fourth quarters. In addition, deferred revenues can vary on a seasonal basis for the same reasons. These patterns may change, however, as a result of the continued shift to on-line giving, growth in volume of transactions for which we process payments, acquisitions, new market opportunities, new product introductions or other factors.
Liquidity and capital resources
At June 30, 2014, cash and cash equivalents totaled $24.8 million, compared to $11.9 million at December 31, 2013. The $13.0 million increase in cash and cash equivalents during the six months ended June 30, 2014, was principally attributable to cash generated from operations of $45.1 million and net proceeds from debt refinancing of $19.6 million, partially offset by the use of net cash of $32.6 million for the acquisition of WhippleHill, the payment of dividends of $11.1 million and cash outlays for purchases of property and equipment and software development costs totaling $9.3 million.
Our principal sources of liquidity are operating cash flow, funds available under our credit facility and cash on hand. Our operating cash flow depends on continued customer renewal of our maintenance, support and subscription agreements and market acceptance of our products and services. Based on current estimates of revenue and expenses, we believe that the currently available sources of funds and anticipated cash flows from operations will be adequate for at least the next twelve months to finance our operations, fund anticipated capital expenditures, meet our debt obligations and pay dividends. Dividend payments are not guaranteed and our Board of Directors may decide, in its absolute discretion, at any time and for any reason, not to declare or pay further dividends and/or repurchase our common stock.
We have drawn on our credit facility from time to time to help us meet financial needs, such as business acquisitions and purchases of common stock under our repurchase program. At June 30, 2014, our available borrowing capacity under our credit facility was $147.6 million. We believe our credit facility will provide us with sufficient flexibility to meet our future financial needs. The credit facility matures in February 2019.
At June 30, 2014, the carrying amount of our debt under our credit facility was $172.1 million. Our average daily borrowings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 were $175.2 million and $167.7 million, respectively.
Following is a summary of the financial covenants under our credit facility:
Financial Covenant
Requirement
Ratio as of June 30, 2014
Net Leverage Ratio
≤ 3.50 to 1.00
1.49 to 1.00
Interest Coverage Ratio
≥ 2.50 to 1.00
21.93 to 1.00
Under our credit facility, we also have restrictions on our ability to declare and pay dividends and our ability to repurchase shares of our common stock. In order to pay any cash dividends and/or repurchase shares of stock: (1) no default or event of default shall have occurred and be continuing under the credit facility, and (2) our pro forma net leverage ratio, as set forth in the credit agreement, must be 0.25 less than the net leverage ratio requirement at the time of dividend declaration or share repurchase. At June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all debt covenants under our credit facility.

At June 30, 2014, our total cash and cash equivalents balance includes approximately $10.0 million of cash that was held by operations outside the U.S. While these funds may not be needed to fund our U.S. operations for at least the next 12 months, if we need these funds, we may be required to accrue and pay taxes to repatriate the funds. Our current plans anticipate repatriating undistributed earnings in Canada. We currently do not intend nor anticipate a need to repatriate our other cash held outside the U.S.
Operating cash flow
Net cash provided by operating activities of $45.1 million increased by $7.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013 primarily due to an increase in cash flow from operations associated with working capital. Throughout both periods, our cash flows from operations were derived principally from: (i) our earnings from on-going operations prior to non-cash expenses such as depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation and adjustments to our provision for sales returns and allowances; and (ii) changes in our working capital.
Working capital changes as they impact the statement of cash flows are composed of changes in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, and deferred revenue. Cash flow from operations associated with working capital increased $6.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013. The net working capital increase was primarily due to:
•
an increase in the amount of taxes payable;
•
a change in the timing of payouts for certain bonus plans, from quarterly to annually;
•
fluctuations in the timing of vendor payments; and
•
partially offset by a decrease in the amount of prepaid taxes.
Investing cash flow
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we used net cash of $32.6 million for the acquisition of WhippleHill compared to $0.9 million spent on investments in acquired companies during the same period in 2013. Cash outlays were $9.3 million for purchases of property and equipment and software development costs during the six months ended June 30, 2014, down from $11.7 million spent during the same period in 2013.
Financing cash flow
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we received net proceeds of $19.6 million when we refinanced our debt. Also during the six months ended June 30, 2014, we paid dividends of $11.1 million, which was relatively consistent with the amount paid in the comparable period of 2013.
Commitments and contingencies
As of June 30, 2014, we had future minimum commitments as follows:

Term Loan outstanding at June 30, 2014 will remain outstanding until maturity, with minimum payments occurring as currently scheduled, and (ii) there are no assumed future borrowings on the 2014 Revolving Facility for the purposes of determining minimum commitment amounts.
(3)
We utilize third-party technology in conjunction with our products and services, with contractual arrangements varying in length from one to five years. In certain cases, these arrangements require a minimum annual purchase commitment by us.
As discussed above, in February 2014 we entered into a five-year $325.0 million credit facility and drew $175.0 million in a term loan upon closing, which was used to repay all amounts outstanding under our previous credit facility. The term loan under our credit facility requires periodic principal payments. The balance of the term loan and any amounts drawn on the revolving credit loans are due upon maturity of the credit facility in February 2019.
The total liability for uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, was $3.6 million and $3.7 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had accrued interest and penalties related to tax positions taken on our tax returns of $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
In February 2014, our Board of Directors approved our annual dividend rate of $0.48 per share for 2014. Dividends at the annual rate would aggregate to $22.6 million assuming 47.0 million shares of common stock are outstanding, although dividends are not guaranteed and our Board of Directors may decide to change or suspend dividend payments at any time for any reason. Our ability to continue to declare and pay dividends quarterly this year and beyond might be restricted by, among other things, the terms of our credit facility, general economic conditions and our ability to generate adequate operating cash flow.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
As of June 30, 2014, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC, that have or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Foreign currency exchange rates
Approximately 13% of our total net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was derived from operations outside the United States. We do not have significant operations in countries in which the economy is considered to be highly inflationary. Our consolidated financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars, and, accordingly, changes in the exchange rate between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar will affect the translation of our subsidiaries’ financial results into U.S. dollars for purposes of reporting our consolidated financial results. The accumulated currency translation adjustment, recorded within other comprehensive loss as a component of stockholders’ equity, was a loss of $1.0 million and $1.1 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectfully.
The vast majority of our contracts are entered into by our U.S., Canadian or U.K. entities. The contracts entered into by the U.S. entity are almost always denominated in U.S. dollars, contracts entered into by our Canadian subsidiary are generally denominated in Canadian dollars, and contracts entered into by our U.K., Australian, Irish and the Netherlands subsidiaries are generally denominated in pounds sterling, Australian dollars, Euros and Euros, respectively. Historically, as the U.S. dollar weakened, foreign currency translation resulted in an increase in our revenues and expenses denominated in non-U.S. currencies. Conversely, as the U.S. dollar strengthened, foreign currency translation resulted in a decrease in our revenue and expenses denominated in non-U.S. currencies. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, foreign translation resulted in a decrease in our revenues and expenses denominated in non-U.S. currencies. Though we do not believe our exposure to currency exchange rates has had a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position, we intend to continue to monitor such exposure and take action as appropriate.
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if inflationary pressures impact the rate of giving to our customers, there could be adverse impacts to our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Critical accounting policies and estimates
There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to those disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
Effective January 1, 2014, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. Under ASU 2013-11, an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward or a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. An entity should apply ASU 2014-09 either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at the date of initial application. We expect the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will impact our consolidated financial statements. We are currently evaluating implementation methods and the extent of the impact that implementation of this standard will have upon adoption.
Item 3. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk
We have market rate sensitivity for interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest rate risk
Our variable rate debt is our primary financial instrument with market risk exposure for changing interest rates. We manage interest rate risk through a combination of short-term and long-term borrowings and the use of derivative instruments entered into for hedging purposes. Due to the nature of our debt, the materiality of the fair values of the derivative instruments and the highly liquid, short-term nature and level of our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2014, we believe there is no material risk of exposure to changing interest rates for those positions. There were no significant changes in how we manage interest rate risk between December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014.
Foreign currency risk
For a discussion of our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, see “Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations — Foreign currency exchange rates” in this report.
Item 4. Controls and procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) are designed only to provide reasonable assurance that they will meet their objectives. As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide the reasonable assurance discussed above.

In May 2013, the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) released COSO 2013, an updated version of its Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992). The COSO 2013 Framework formalizes the principles embedded in the original COSO 1992, incorporates business and operating environment changes over the past two decades, and improves the original 1992 framework’s ease of use and application. Effective January 1, 2014, we transitioned to COSO 2013 and it has not had a significant impact on our underlying compliance with the applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures.
No change in internal control over financial reporting occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter with respect to our operations, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
