ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Wind River develops, markets and supports advanced software operating systems and development tools, and provides consulting services that allow customers to create complex, robust, software applications for embedded computers. An embedded computer is a microprocessor that is incorporated into a larger device that fulfills a specific purpose and is dedicated to responding to external events by performing specific tasks quickly, predictably and reliably. Wind River products enable customers to enhance product performance, standardize designs across projects, reduce research and development costs and shorten product development cycles.
Wind River markets its products and services in North America, Europe, and Japan primarily through its own direct sales organization, which consists of salespersons and field engineers. Wind River also has licensed international distributors principally to serve customers in regions not serviced by its direct sales force. Wind River's customers include 3Com Corp., Alcatel, Cisco Systems, Inc., Digeo Broadband, Inc., Ericsson Radio Systems AB, Hewlett-Packard Company, Lucent Technologies Inc., Intel Corporation, Lam Research Corp., Lockheed-Martin Corporation, Motorola, Inc., Nippon Electric Corporation, Nortel Networks Corporation, Raytheon Company, Sandstream Communication & Entertainment, Inc., Siemens AG, Sony Corp., Tellabs Inc., and Westell Technologies Inc.
Wind River was incorporated in California in February 1983 and reincorporated in Delaware in April 1993. Its principal executive offices are located at 500 Wind River Way, Alameda, California 94501, and its telephone number at that location is (510) 748-4100.
BACKGROUND
Embedded systems consist of a microprocessor and related software incorporated into a larger device, dedicated to performing a specific set of tasks. Embedded systems provide an immediate, predictable response to an unpredictable sequence of external events. As more powerful microprocessors have become available and have decreased in price, embedded systems are being used in a wider range of applications and digital appliances and are facilitating the development of entirely new products.
To succeed in today's increasingly competitive markets, manufacturers using embedded systems must bring complex applications for new products to market rapidly and economically. Developing embedded software applications has evolved from a relatively modest programming task to a complex engineering effort. As more powerful and affordable 32-bit microprocessors have become available, products based on them have become richer in features and functions. Increasingly, embedded applications are being designed for 64-bit microprocessors, digital signal processors, and programmable logic devices. In addition, the complexity of embedded software applications is increasing dramatically,
3
while the time available for product development is decreasing. More sophisticated software is required to develop these more complex applications, frequently including an operating system that provides developers far more features, higher performance and greater productivity than was necessary or feasible for programming prior generations of microprocessors. Wind River provides end-to-end product solutions, including hardware reference design single board computers, integrated development environments, operating systems, networking protocols, and "standalone" tools that can be used with non-Wind River operating systems. These flexible solutions allow customers to purchase specific products for their particular needs, while improving product reliability and time to market.
As embedded applications increase in complexity, the costs associated with providing software development, support and training of engineers are rising rapidly. In addition, time to market, conformance to standards, and product reliability have become critical issues for companies developing embedded applications.
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Wind River's operating systems and development tools enable customers to create complex embedded software applications more quickly, more economically, and with less risk than creating such applications using internally developed systems and tools. The Company markets its software products in a variety of ways designed to address the needs of a wide range of customers, including those that seek to design their own target applications entirely, those that seek to leverage an integrated solution toward a particular market, and those that also need design services and consulting with respect to the development of a specification, particular components or the target application itself.
The cornerstone of Wind River's software products is its suite of embedded operating systems that includes VxWorks® and VxWorks AE, its most advanced family of operating systems offering both protection domains and high availability features; the pSOSystem family of operating systems; OSEKWorks in the automotive field; a recently acquired operating system for digital signal processors; and Free BSD, a UNIX-based open source operating system. These operating systems are suitable for use in a broad range of embedded applications, including products in automotive, consumer electronics, wireless, industrial, telecom/datacom and server management technologies.
Complementing the operating systems, Wind River also licenses the Tornado® integrated development environment (IDE) which consists of a development platform and associated tools allowing customers to design, develop and test intended applications on a host development workstation. The Tornado IDE includes a comprehensive set of core and optional cross-development tools and utilities along with the VxWorks operating system, and allows for the integration of a wide variety of third-party tools. Wind River also provides a line of standalone development tools that customers can use with their own proprietary operating systems or with other third-party operating systems.
Wind River provides optional extensions and middleware to its operating systems which provide additional capabilities to developers. Customers can license and incorporate these extensions and middleware into the underlying operating system to provide features required for a customer's specific applications. As applications become more complex, especially for Web-enabled products, prepackaged middleware solutions such as those offered by Wind River have become more widely used to simplify development.
To facilitate the design and implementation of software solutions, Wind River has added hardware reference designs to its software product offerings. Through the use of these hardware products, customers can incorporate portions of the reference design into their products or use the entire design as a development platform before a customer's custom boards are available. This allows software programming to be tested for operability and functionality, and to be corrected for errors, early in the design cycle, thereby advancing overall product development.
4
To complement its broad range of software products and hardware reference designs, Wind River provides comprehensive design services and technical support to help customers complete a specification, design critical drivers, ports or interfaces, and/or provide complete design of a target application. These design services are offered on either a time-and-materials or fixed-price basis and can encompass a broad range of services, including fully project-managed custom hardware development, software development, and product integration. Wind River offers training through a series of formal technical courses designed to help teach developers the basics of embedded software development and the effective use of Wind River's tools, operating systems and middleware. The Company also provides for worldwide maintenance and support of its software products in the field.
Wind River provides its software to customers through several forms of license agreements wherein the customer is extended the right to use and distribute the Company's products. Operating systems are generally licensed on a per-project basis and distributed by the customer for a per-unit royalty fee based on the number of target applications running the OS and placed in distribution. The Tornado development tools are licensed for a fee based on the number of developer "seats" using the tools. Bundled software integrated for market-specific solutions are similarly licensed, combining both run-time royalties and development fees. A significant number of Wind River's licenses for standard product are "click wrap" agreements contained in the product packaging.
MARKET-SPECIFIC SOLUTIONS
Wind River offers market-specific solutions built on the Tornado IDE and Wind River operating systems plus fully integrated market-specific middleware, and development tools. With these platforms, customers are able to focus their time and engineering resources on creating unique applications within their particular market segment. These market-specific solutions include the following:
Automotive Market
Tornado® for OSEKWork. Tornado for OSEKWorks incorporates Wind River's OSEKWorks operating system into the Tornado development environment, enabling developers to design complex automotive applications quickly and cost effectively.
Communications Infrastructure
Tornado® for Managed Switches. Tornado for Managed Switches (TMS) provides a complete set of functions for enterprise-class data networking switch and router equipment. TMS includes the Tornado II development environment and VxWorks plus communications protocols packaged so that customers can build different classes of data networking equipment.

Products include the VxWorks TCP/IP protocol stack, AttachePlus Internet portable TCP/IP protocol stack, and WindNet STREAMS which provides an industry-standard platform for integrating a wide variety of networking protocol modules into an application.
Portable Protocols. Wind River's RouterWare® product line provides standard ANSI C source code for a wide range of internetworking protocol stacks, all architected for reliability and scalability.
ACQUISITIONS, INVESTMENTS AND STRATEGIC ALLIANCES
The technology related to the embedded market in which Wind River competes is dramatically and rapidly increasing in complexity. To continue to develop and deliver complete solutions for its customers and to retain its competitive advantage in the market place, Wind River has and will continue to pursue a strategy of acquiring key businesses and technologies, making selected investments in companies to partner in the development of key technologies, and forming strategic alliances with significant customers.
Major acquisitions during the last fiscal year included Integrated Systems, Inc. which was acquired on February 15, 2000; Embedded Support Tools Corporation which was acquired on March 31, 2000; AudeSi Technologies Inc. which was acquired on May 1, 2000; ICESoft AS which was acquired on July 14, 2000; and Rapid Logic, Inc. which was acquired on October 24, 2000. The acquisitions of these companies allowed Wind River to add key technologies to its market specific solutions, integrated development solutions and hardware solutions. See Item 1 "RISK FACTORS" of this Report.
Wind River also invests in early-stage companies focusing on wireless communications, data and optical networking, semiconductors, and communications software, as well as Internet appliances. These investments are intended to expand opportunities with start-ups, to leverage high growth markets that
6
are strategically aligned with Wind River, and to provide a forum for collaboration on leading-edge technologies that we believe will help shape the future of embedded computing.
Wind River believes that strategic relationships with semiconductor manufacturers and embedded device manufacturers are significant strengths that are key to its future success in the embedded systems marketplace. These relationships include value added reseller agreements which focus on certain markets with target specific applications; the WindLink and Wind River Direct programs which provide for joint marketing and sales arrangements with certain developers of third-party applications for industry-specific features; and the Center of Excellence programs in which Wind River partners with leading microprocessor manufacturers to facilitate the porting, interfacing, and optimizing of the Company's software across various families of microprocessors. Wind River has strategic relationships with most of the major semiconductor companies including Advanced RISC Machines Ltd., Fujitsu Ltd., Hitachi, Inc., IBM Corporation, Intel Corporation, MIPS Technologies, Inc., Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Motorola, Inc., NEC Corporation, ST Microelectronics, Siemens AG, Sun Microsystems, Inc., and Xilinx, Inc. Wind River has ported its VxWorks and pSOSystem technologies to their semiconductors, allowing Wind River to leverage its partners' sales channels to give its products broad market exposure. See Item 1 "RISK FACTORS" of this Report.
CUSTOMERS
Wind River's products have been deployed by a broad range of organizations, including companies in the following industries: global networking (both data and voice), digital imaging, digital consumer electronics, computers and peripherals, medical instrumentation, defense electronics and aerospace, research, automotive control, and industrial measurement and control. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of Wind River's total revenues in fiscal 2001, 2000, or 1999.
MARKETING, SALES AND DISTRIBUTION
In North America, Europe and now Japan, Wind River markets products and services primarily through its own direct sales organization, which consists of salespersons, field application engineers and support staff. Wind River's sales force presents Wind River and its products for licensing to prospective customers, while application engineers provide technical pre-sales and post-sales support. As of January 31, 2001; Wind River had 406 domestic sales employees located throughout North America, 192 sales employees throughout Europe, 69 sales employees in Japan, and 22 sales employees in Asia Pacific.
In Japan, Wind River has transitioned from its joint venture arrangement with three master distributors to market its products through a direct sales force. The joint venture partners, Innotech Corporation ("Innotech"), Kobe Steel Ltd. ("Kobe Steel"), and Nissin Electric Ltd. ("Nissin Electric"), each previously owned a 10% equity interest in the joint venture, Wind River Systems, K.K. ("WRSKK") with Wind River owning the remaining 70% equity interest. In June 2000, Wind River notified the joint venture partners of its intention to terminate the joint venture agreement and on December 28, 2000, purchased each joint venture partner's equity in WRSKK in transactions totaling $1.2 million.
On March 30, 2001, Wind River signed agreements with Kobe Steel and Nissin Electric for amounts approximating $2.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively, to purchase customer lists and other intangibles (see Note 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). See Item 1 "RISK FACTORS" of this Report.
Wind River has licensed certain international distributors, principally to serve customers in regions not serviced by its direct sales force. Wind River has also established strategic relationships with computer, semiconductor, and software vendors, and works closely with a number of system integrators
7
worldwide that enable Wind River to further broaden the geographic and market scope for its products.
Revenues from sales to customers outside of North America represented $137.3 million, $117.3 million, and $98.1 million or approximately 31%, 37% and 37% of total revenue in fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively (see Note 14 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). Prices for international customers are quoted primarily in local currency and are based on the United States price list adjusted to reflect the higher cost of doing business outside the United States. International customers are invoiced primarily in local currency. See Item 1 "RISK FACTORS" of this Report.
Wind River has experienced, and expects to continue to experience, significant seasonality resulting primarily from customer buying patterns and product development cycles. The Company has generally experienced the strongest demand for its products in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year and the weakest demand in the first quarter of each fiscal year. Quarterly revenue levels have increased over the levels for like quarters in the prior fiscal years, but have typically decreased in the first quarter of each fiscal year from the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year. See Item 1 "RISK FACTORS" of this Report.
COMPETITION
The embedded software industry is highly competitive. Wind River believes that its principal competition comes from companies that develop embedded operating systems in-house rather than purchase these systems from independent software vendors such as Wind River. Wind River also competes with other independent software vendors, including Accelerated Technology, Inc., ENEA OSE Systems AB, Mentor Graphics, Inc., Microsoft Corporation, QNX Software Systems, Ltd., Sun Microsystems, Inc., Motorola, Inc., and Symbian Inc., as well as a number of other vendors that address one or more segments of the embedded system design process. Further, a number of companies, including RedHat, Inc., LinuxWorks, Lineo, Inc. and MonteVista Software Inc. have promoted Linux, an open source licensing model, as an operating system for use in embedded applications. The open source licensing model provides readily available source code and a royalty-free operating system, and leverages the added functionality and design improvements available from contributors to the open source community.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING
Wind River believes that its success will continue to depend primarily on its ability to maintain and enhance its current product line, develop new products, maintain technological competitiveness and meet an ever-expanding range of customer and market requirements. Wind River's product development and engineering group, as of January 31, 2001, includes 833 full-time employees. During fiscal 2001, 2000, and 1999, product development and engineering expenses were $83.0 million, $55.3 million, and $37.8 million, respectively, excluding capitalized software development costs. At January 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, Wind River had capitalized software costs of $1.7 million, $2.6 million and $3.7 million, respectively (see Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). Wind River anticipates that it will continue to commit substantial resources to research and product development in the future. See Item 1 "RISK FACTORS" of this Report.
PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
Wind River's success is heavily dependent upon the Company's proprietary technology. To protect our proprietary rights, the Company relies on a combination of patent, copyright, trade secret, and trademark laws. As a part of the Company's regular business processes, Wind River generally enters into nondisclosure agreements with employees, consultants, distributors and corporate partners, as appropriate, and thereby limits access to and distribution of our software, documentation and other
8
proprietary information. Further, Wind River's licensing agreements provide for protection of its intellectual property both in terms of source code handling and underlying intellectual property ownership of modifications to the Wind River code. See Item 1 "RISK FACTORS" of this Report.
MANUFACTURING AND BACKLOG
Wind River's manufacturing operation consists of assembling, packaging and shipping the software products and documentation needed to fulfill each order. Limited manufacturing is currently performed in Wind River's Alameda and Sunnyvale, California, facilities. Outside vendors provide tape and CD duplication, printing of documentation and manufacturing of packaging materials. Wind River also manufactures and assembles its hardware development tools at a factory in Canton, Massachusetts. Wind River does not believe that backlog is a meaningful indicator of sales that can be expected in future periods, particularly in view of the fast pace of technological change in the software industry. At January 31, 2001, and 2000, backlog was approximately 7 to 11 weeks of sales for both years. Backlog includes orders that may be filled at various times throughout the fiscal year.
EMPLOYEES
Wind River had, at January 31, 2001, 2,018 employees, including 891 in sales, marketing and support activities, 833 in product development and engineering and 294 in management, operations, finance and administration. Of these employees, 1,528 were located in North America and 490 were located outside of North America. No employees of Wind River are represented by a labor union or are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. Wind River has never experienced a work stoppage.
Our business faces significant risks. The risks described below may not be the only risks we face. Additional risks that we do not yet know of or that we currently think are immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the events or circumstances described in the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer, and the trading price of our common stock could decline.
Numerous factors may cause our total revenues and operating results to fluctuate significantly from period to period.
If our quarterly or annual operating results do not meet the expectations of securities analysts and investors, the market price of our common stock could decline significantly. A number of factors, many of which are outside our control, may cause or contribute to these fluctuations including:
9
One or more of the foregoing factors may cause our operating expenses to be disproportionately high or may cause our net revenue and operating results to fluctuate significantly. If we experience a shortfall in anticipated revenues or earnings or otherwise fail to meet public market expectations, our business could suffer and the market price of our common stock could decline significantly.
Wind River faces intense competition in the embedded software industry which could decrease demand for our products or cause us to reduce our prices.
The embedded software industry is characterized by rapid change, new and complex technology and intense competition. Our ability to maintain our current market share depends on our ability to satisfy customer requirements, enhance existing products and develop and introduce new products. We believe our principal competition comes from companies that develop operating systems in-house rather than those which purchase these systems from independent software vendors, such as Wind River. We also compete with other independent software vendors, including Accelerated Technology, Inc.; ENEA OSE Systems AB; Mentor Graphics, Inc.; Microsoft Corporation; Motorola, Inc.; QNX Software Systems, Ltd.; Sun Microsystems, Inc.; and Symbian Inc. Some of our competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, sales and other resources and significantly greater name recognition than we do. In addition, our competitors may consolidate or establish strategic alliances to expand product offerings and resources or reach new market segments. As a result, they may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, or to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, sale and support of their products. Increased competitiveness may result in reductions in the prices of our products, run-time royalties and services, lower than expected gross margins or loss of market share, any of which would harm our business.
A number of companies, including Red Hat, Inc., LinuxWorks, Lineo Inc., and MonteVista Software Inc. have been promoting the open source Linux operating system for use in embedded applications. Because Linux is royalty-free, increased use of the Linux operation system may force Wind River to reduce the prices of run-time royalties which could reduce our revenues and profit margins. In addition, the accessibility of the open source code promotes rapid technological changes from contributors in the open source community. If Wind River incurs additional costs or is unable to introduce new product functions or features to meet the broad scope of the functions and features made available through the open source community, the market for our products could suffer.
The demands for rapid change and increasing complexity of the technology in our industry is driven by a number of factors, including the expansion of microprocessor platforms in embedded markets and the requirement for increased functionality in new products. The demand for increased functionality favors larger competitors who have the resources to develop new technologies or to respond more quickly with new product offerings or product enhancements. Our competitors may foresee the course of market developments more accurately than we do and could in the future develop new technologies that compete with our products or even render our products obsolete. Our continued competitiveness will require a continued high level of investment in research and development, marketing and customer service and support. If we are unable to successfully respond to technological
10
changes and bring new or enhanced products to market in a timely and cost-effective manner, our business growth will suffer and demand for our products will decrease.
If we do not continue to successfully address new and rapidly changing markets and increasingly complex technologies and deliver our products on a timely basis, our revenues and operating results will decline.
The market for embedded software is characterized by ongoing technological developments, evolving industry standards and rapid changes in customer requirements and product offerings in the embedded market. Our success depends upon our ability to adapt and respond to these changes. We must continuously update our existing products to keep them current with customer needs, and must develop new products to take advantage of new technologies, emerging standards, and expanding customer requirements that could render our existing products obsolete. Because customers often defer purchases between the time a new product is announced and its availability, our revenues and operating results may fluctuate if we do not provide new products rapidly.
We have from time to time experienced delays in the commercial release of new technologies, new products and enhancements of existing products. Such delays are commonplace in the software industry due to the complexity and unpredictability of the development work required. We must achieve design wins on new product offerings with key customers because once a customer has designed a product with a particular operating system, that customer typically is reluctant to change its supplier, due to the significant costs associated with selecting a new supplier. If we cannot adapt or respond in a cost effective and timely manner to new technologies and new customer requirements, the market for our products could suffer.
In addition, as we undertake the extensive capital outlays to address the changes in the embedded market, we may be unable to realize revenue as soon as we may expect. These costs associated with software development are increasing, including the costs of recruiting and retaining engineering talent, and acquiring or licensing new technologies. Our investment in new and existing market opportunities prior to our ability to generate revenue from these new opportunities may harm our operating results.
Integrating the companies we have acquired and costs associated with acquisitions and investments may disrupt our business and harm our operating results.
As part of our business strategy, we anticipate that we will continue to acquire or make investments in business, products and technologies that complement ours. We have incurred significant costs in connection with transactions completed in this fiscal year and may incur significant costs in connection with future transactions whether or not they actually occur. Acquisitions involve additional risks including:
11
We may not be successful in integrating the business, products, technologies and personnel we acquire. Similarly, we cannot guarantee that our investments will yield a significant return, if any. If we cannot successfully manage the integration of our acquisitions or are unable to realize the benefits of, or anticipated revenues from, our acquisitions, our business, financial condition and operating results could suffer.
If we are unable to successfully maintain our strategic alliances and collaborative relationships, we could suffer delays in product development and our business would be harmed.
We have several forms of strategic relationships, primarily with key semiconductor manufacturers, through our Centers of Excellence program and Value Added Reseller agreements. In addition, we have collaborative marketing agreements through our WindLink program and collaborative marketing and distribution agreements through our Wind River Direct programs with certain developers of third-party applications and products. The strategic relationships are complex in that we compete in certain business areas with a company with which we have a strategic relationship and at the same time, cooperate with the same company in other business areas. Our strategic partners may also have concurrent relationships with companies which provide open source and in-house solutions, which may put pressure on our product development roadmaps, timelines and prices. If we are not successful in developing and continuing these strategic relationships in the semiconductor market, our business will be harmed. If our collaborative marketing and distribution agreements terminate or expire, the scope of our product offerings may be restricted, and the distribution of our products and revenues may be adversely impacted.
A significant portion of our revenue is derived from royalties which are dependent on our customers' abilities to develop and penetrate new markets successfully.
Our operating systems and middleware products are embedded in end-user products marketed by our customers, and we receive royalty fees for each copy of our operating system and middleware products embedded in those products. Therefore, our royalty revenues depend both upon our ability to successfully negotiate royalty agreements with our customers and, in turn, upon our customers' successful commercialization of the underlying products. In particular, we rely heavily on our customers that develop leading edge products in areas such as Internet infrastructure, servers and storage, digital consumer, aerospace and defense, industrial control and automotive. We cannot control their product development or predict their success. In addition, we depend on our customers to accurately report use of their products in order for us to collect our run-time royalties. If our customers are not successful with their products or do not accurately report use of their products, our royalty revenues will decline significantly.
Our significant international business activities subject us to increased costs and economic risks.
Wind River develops and sells its products world wide. Additionally, we have investments in, or acquisitions of, technology internationally. We also expect to continue to make investments to further support and expand our international operations and increase our direct sales force in Europe and Asia. Risks inherent in international operations include:
12
Any of these events, regionally and as a whole, could reduce our international sales and increase our costs of doing business internationally and have a material adverse affect on our gross margins and net operating results.
We have substantial debt service and principal repayment obligations, which could make it difficult for us to obtain financing and deplete our cash reserves.
We sold $140 million of 5% convertible subordinated notes in 1997, which mature in 2002. This debt financing increased significantly both the ratio of our long-term debt to our total capitalization and our interest expenses. The degree to which we are leveraged could impair our ability to obtain financing for working capital or acquisitions, should we need to do so. The notes are convertible into our common stock at a price of $32.33 per share, and only a small portion of the notes has been converted to date. On August 1, 2002, we will be required either to pay off or refinance any unconverted notes. We do not know if we will be able to refinance the notes on favorable terms or at all. If a significant amount of the notes remains unconverted at maturity and we are unable to refinance the notes, the repayment would deplete our cash and investment balances significantly.
Failure of our current and planned information systems, controls and infrastructure to adequately manage and support our anticipated growth and global operations could disrupt our business.
We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, both through acquisitions and internal expansion, significant growth in our headcount and in the scope, complexity and geographic reach of our operations. To support this expansion, we must standardize, integrate and improve our management controls, reporting systems and procedures and information technology infrastructure. To implement those improvements, we must purchase, develop and maintain complex and expensive information management systems. Our current and planned systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support our future operations. Failure of these systems to meet our needs and an inability to efficiently integrate and expand support worldwide could disrupt our operations.
We are exposed to general market conditions which may increase the volatility in our operating results and stock price.
In recent years and, in particular, the past year, the stock markets in general and the shares of technology companies in particular have experienced extreme price fluctuations. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the companies affected. The market price of our common stock is affected by the stock performance of other companies in our industry and other technology companies generally. In addition, other broad market and industry
13
factors may negatively affect our operating results or decrease our stock price, as may general political or economic conditions in the United States and globally, such as recessions, or interest rate or currency fluctuations. Unfavorable economic conditions in the United States could lead to a decrease in research and development and capital spending for emerging technology companies or for new products within established companies. Additionally, both emerging and established companies may seek to extend credit and payment terms as a result of unfavorable economic conditions.
The rights we rely upon to protect the intellectual property underlying our products may not be adequate, which could enable third parties to use our technology and reduce our ability to compete.
Our success depends significantly upon the proprietary technology contained in our products. We currently rely on a combination of patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secret laws, and contractual provisions to establish and protect our intellectual property rights in our technology and products. We cannot be certain that the steps we take to protect our intellectual property will adequately protect our rights, that others will not independently develop or otherwise acquire equivalent or superior technology, or that we can maintain such technology as trade secrets. In addition, discovery and investigation of unauthorized use of our intellectual property is difficult. Software piracy, while difficult to detect, can be expected to be a persistent problem, particularly in foreign countries, where the laws may not protect our intellectual property as fully as in the United States. Employees, consultants, and others who participate in the development of our products may breach their agreements with us regarding our intellectual property. We might not have adequate remedies for infringement or breach of our proprietary rights by third parties, employees or consultants. Further, we may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for infringement or breach of our proprietary rights or to establish the validity of our proprietary rights. Whether or not such litigation is determined in our favor, such actions could result in significant expense to us, divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel from productive tasks or cause product shipment delays.
We occasionally receive communications from third parties alleging patent or copyright infringement, and there is always the chance that third parties may assert infringement claims against us. Any such claims, with or without merit, could result in costly litigation, expense of significant resources to develop non-infringing technology, cause product shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. We cannot be certain that the necessary licenses will be available or that they can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we were to fail to obtain such royalty or licensing agreements in a timely manner and on reasonable terms, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially adversely affected.

YEARS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2001 AND 2000
REVENUES
Revenues consist of product revenues and service revenues. Product revenues ("product revenues") consist of royalties and fees for operating systems and fees for the use of development tools. Service revenues ("service revenues") are derived from fees from professional services, which include design and development fees, software maintenance contracts, customer training and consulting. Total revenues increased by 39% to $438.0 million in fiscal year 2001 from $316.1 million in fiscal year 2000. The increase in revenues is due to increases in both product revenues and service revenues. Product revenues accounted for approximately 71% and 67% of the total revenues in fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively, and service revenues accounted for approximately 29% and 33% of total revenues in fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Product revenues increased 47% to $309.7 million in fiscal year 2001 from $210.7 million in fiscal year 2000. The increase in product revenues was due primarily to the continued acceptance of Wind River's products, increases in run-time license revenues as customer-developed products continue to be accepted by end-users and to the expansion of Wind River's product lines resulting from research and development and the integration of products from acquired companies. Product revenues are recognized at the time of shipment or upon the delivery of a product master in satisfaction of non-cancelable contractual agreements provided that collection of the resulting receivable is probable, the fee is fixed or determinable and vendor-specific objective evidence exists to allocate the total fee to all delivered and undelivered elements of the arrangement.
Service revenues increased 22% to $128.3 million in fiscal year 2001 from $105.4 million in fiscal year 2000. The increase was due to growth in revenues from maintenance support agreements, both new and recurring, resulting from Wind River's base of installed development environments and software applications provided to customers. In addition, revenues from professional services increased due to continued strategic emphasis in this area.
Deferred revenues result primarily from customer prepayments under software maintenance agreements, which are recognized ratably over the life of the agreements, certain run-time agreements, which are recognized as target licenses are delivered and collection is reasonably assured, and professional services and engineering services contracts or training arrangements, which are recognized as services are performed.
Revenues from international sales were $137.3 million and $117.3 million for fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively. The percentage of Wind River's total revenues from customers located internationally was 31% in fiscal year 2001, and 37% in fiscal year 2000. The decrease in Wind River's international revenues as a percentage of total revenues in fiscal year 2001 is due primarily to domestic revenues increasing at a faster rate than international revenues and due to a decrease in revenues from Japan as a result of the transition to a direct distribution model. Revenues from Japan were $40.8 million and $42.9 million in fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively. The percentage of revenues from other international regions remained relatively constant in fiscal years 2001 and 2000 at 22% and 24% of total revenues, respectively, while the percentage of revenues from customers located in Japan decreased to 9% in fiscal 2001 from 14% in fiscal 2000. Wind River expects international sales to continue to represent a significant portion of revenues, although the percentage may fluctuate from period to period. Wind River's international sales are denominated in the local currencies. Wind River actively monitors its foreign currency exchange exposure; and to date such exposures have not had a material impact on Wind River's results of operations or cash flows. See Item 1 "RISK FACTORS" of this Report.
20
COST OF REVENUES
The overall cost of revenues as a percentage of total revenues was 23% in fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2000. Cost of revenues comprises cost of products and cost of services.
Cost of products was $36.6 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $27.7 million in fiscal 2000. Cost of products as a percentage of product revenues was 12% and 13% in fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively. As a result, gross profit margins for products were 88% and 87%, respectively. Costs of products consist primarily of salaries and benefits for production employees, product media, and royalty payments to third parties for the use of their software and documentation and packaging. The decrease in costs as a percentage of product revenues are due to production efficiencies achieved as more development, OEM and run time licenses move through Wind River's production cycle as well as a reduction in third party product costs. Wind River's cost of product revenues as a percentage of product revenues will be affected in the future by the distribution rights related to the introduction of new products and by royalty payments to third parties for sales related to their products which are integrated into Wind River's technology and are sold as support tools. Amortization of capitalized software development costs included in cost of products for fiscal 2001 and 2000, amounted to $2.4 million for both years. At January 31, 2001 and 2000, Wind River had net capitalized software costs of $1.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively. In fiscal year 2001, Wind River capitalized an additional $1.0 million in software development related costs. Additions in fiscal year 2001 will be amortized over eight quarters at $125,000 per quarter.
Cost of services was $63.3 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $43.4 million in fiscal 2000. Service related cost of revenues as a percentage of service revenues was 49% and 41% respectively. Service related cost of revenues consists primarily of personnel related costs associated with providing services to customers and the infrastructure to manage a services organization as well as costs to recruit, develop, and retain services professionals. The increase in costs of service revenues is due to the Company's investment in developing new services offerings and the addition of new personnel and certified third party contractors to Wind River's professional services organization. Wind River expects the cost of service revenues will increase in absolute dollars as the Company continues to increase its customer support staff, customer support capabilities and professional service organization.
SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSES
Selling and marketing expenses were $172.2 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $123.3 million in fiscal 2000 or 39% of total revenues for both fiscal years. The increase in absolute dollars from fiscal 2000 to 2001 resulted primarily from the growth of sales and marketing personnel both domestically and internationally, field engineers, expenses related to marketing and advertising programs and third-party marketing costs for product introductions. The increase was also due to costs associated with the integration of acquisitions made during the year. Such costs included redesign and reprinting of marketing material, sales meetings, trade show promotions and advertisements. Wind River expects its selling and marketing expenses to increase in absolute dollars as it continues to increase its sales and marketing personnel and marketing and advertising programs.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING EXPENSES
Product development and engineering expenses were $83.0 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $55.3 million in fiscal 2000, an increase of 50%. As a percentage of revenues, product development and engineering expenses increased to 19% in fiscal 2001 from 17% in fiscal 2000. The increase in product development and engineering expenses is primarily due to the increase in staff and associated support for engineers to expand and enhance Wind River's product line, including the costs associated with integrating engineering staff as a result of the business acquisitions which occurred during the fiscal year. Wind River believes that product development and engineering expenses will continue to increase
21
in absolute dollars both as a result of the investment in the internal development of new products and technologies and through acquisitions of companies and technologies. In addition, Wind River had $1.0 million and $600,000 of funded research and development, which reduced its research and development expenses in fiscal years 2001 and 2000, respectively, related to its Center of Excellence initiative. The Company expects the Center of Excellence program to continue to increase in absolute dollars in the next fiscal year.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
General and administrative expenses were $40.0 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $33.9 million in fiscal 2000, an increase of 18%. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses decreased to 9% in fiscal 2001 from 11% in fiscal 2000. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily due to the growth in worldwide staff and infrastructure investments in the areas of information systems, finance, legal and administration to support the growth of Wind River and to integrate the companies it has acquired. In addition, fiscal 2000 included $1.2 million in costs associated with the retirement costs of the former CEO, $1.3 million in costs associated with the hiring of the current CEO and costs associated with the implementation of Wind River's Oracle software system which contributed to the higher cost as a percentage of revenues in that year. Wind River believes that general and administrative expenses will continue to increase in absolute dollars as it continues to invest in worldwide staff and infrastructure in the areas of information systems, finance and administration and consolidate the financial, manufacturing, customer relations management and customer support information systems of acquired companies.
Wind River allocates the total costs for information technology and facilities to each of the functional areas that uses the information technology and facilities services based on their headcount. Information technology allocated costs include salaries, information technology, project costs, communication costs and depreciation expense for shared infrastructure costs. Facilities allocated costs include facility rent for the corporate offices as well as shared function offices, property taxes, depreciation expenses for office furniture and other department operating costs.
AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL AND PURCHASED INTANGIBLES
Amortization of goodwill and purchased intangibles increased to $95.9 million in fiscal 2001 from $6.3 million in fiscal 2000. The increase in amortization of intangibles is due to the amortization of identifiable intangibles and goodwill related to the purchase transactions completed this year, and primarily consists of amortization related to Embedded Support Tools. Wind River expects to amortize, under current accounting rules, approximately $31.0 million per quarter in identifiable intangibles and goodwill for the next thirteen quarters related to intangibles acquired in purchase transactions completed primarily during fiscal 2001. Additional acquisitions could increase the amount of goodwill amortization.
ACQUISITION RELATED COSTS
Acquisition related costs were $33.3 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $9.9 million in fiscal 2000. The $23.4 million increase is primarily related to costs associated with the integration of Integrated Systems, and the write-off of in-process research and development costs from purchase transactions completed during the year.
During fiscal 2001, Wind River incurred $25.2 million in acquisition and integration costs associated with the merger of Integrated Systems. Those costs included: (a) $11.1 million for investment banking fees, (b) $6.8 million in severance costs, (c) $3.1 million for office closure and other costs for surplus sales offices in the United States, Europe and Japan, (d) $3.6 million for legal, accounting and other professional fees which relate primarily to the acquisition process for Integrated
22
Systems and the elimination of acquired legal entities in the United States, Europe and Japan, and (e) $600,000 for general integration costs. Severance costs of $6.4 million were paid during fiscal 2001. Remaining severance costs are expected to be paid during fiscal 2002. A total of 87 employees were terminated, including 40 general and administrative employees, 33 sales and marketing employees and 14 employees from other areas. Employees were terminated if their roles or functions were duplicative following the merger with Integrated Systems. The office closure costs relate to remaining lease payments on vacant offices extending to October 31, 2004.
Wind River recognized in-process research and development charges of $8.1 million during fiscal 2001 related to various purchase transactions completed during the year including amounts related to the acquisition of Embedded Support Tools of $3.7 million, Rapid Logic of $3.3 million, AudeSi of $1.0 million and ICESoft of $100,000. (see Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). Wind River also recognized an in-process research and development charge of $6.3 million relating to the operations of a subsidiary of Integrated Systems during fiscal 2000. The amounts related to in-process technology represent purchased in-process technology for projects that have not yet reached technological feasibility and have no alternative future use. At the dates of acquisition, the average estimated percentage of completion was 56%, 79%, 49% and 39%, for the in-process research and development projects at Embedded Support Tools, AudeSi, ICESoft and Rapid Logic, respectively. The expected completion dates for these projects were September 2000, December 2000, August 2000 and September 2000, respectively. The value of the in-process research and development was determined by estimating the net cash flows resulting from the completion of the projects reduced by the percentage of completion of the projects. Net cash flows were offset using estimated income taxes consistent with Wind River's anticipated tax rate for the foreseeable future and then discounted back to their present value at a discount rate based on Wind River's required risk adjusted weighted average rate of return. Wind River's estimated revenues, margins and operating costs are based upon historical information about similar product development cycles combined with projections of future revenues and cost patterns, including projections used when initially evaluating the acquisitions. Wind River cannot guarantee that it will realize revenues from these in-process projects in the amounts estimated or that the costs incurred will be materially consistent with estimates made. However, to date, the Company is not aware of any significant variations between costs incurred and estimates made.
The nature of the efforts to develop all purchased in-process technology into commercially viable products principally relates to the completion of all planning, designing, prototyping, verification and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the resulting products can meet their design specification, including function, features and technical performance requirements.
Due to the fact that the projects were in-process, there is uncertainty regarding whether they can be successfully finished and result in the net cash flows that were originally estimated at the time of the acquisitions. It is reasonably possible that the development of the acquired technology could fail because of either prohibitive costs, Wind River's inability to perform the required completion efforts or other factors outside Wind River's control such as a change in the market for the resulting developed products. If the development of the technology is unsuccessful, the technology may be abandoned during the development phase. Should Wind River's development efforts fail or encounter significant delay, then Wind River's future returns may be significantly reduced. In such case, Wind River may be unable to recover its investment in this project, may be less well positioned to benefit from new product markets in these areas and Wind River's future operating results could be adversely affected.
The assumptions used in determining the value of in-process research and development acquired in connection with Wind River's purchase acquisitions completed during fiscal 2001 and 2000 have been consistent, in all material respects, with the actual results to date. The assumptions primarily consist of the expected completion date for the in-process projects, estimated costs to complete the projects, and revenue and expense projections once the products have entered the market. Failure to achieve the expected levels of revenue and net income from these products during their entire life cycle will
23
negatively impact the return on investment expected at the time that the acquisitions were completed and potentially result in impairment of any other assets related to the development activities.
OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE
Interest income was $20.8 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $18.9 million in fiscal 2000. The increase is primarily due to higher interest earned on cash balances, short-term investments and restricted cash balances. Total cash, investments and restricted cash at January 31, 2001 and 2000 was approximately $350.9 million and $352.3 million, respectively.
Interest expense was $7.0 million during fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively. Wind River pays interest on its outstanding 5.0% convertible subordinated notes due in August of 2002 and maturities of certain issuance costs associated with these notes. The interest on the notes is payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year commencing February 1, 1998.
Other income and expense, net for fiscal 2001 was income of $8.5 million compared to an expense of $2.4 million in fiscal 2000. The increase in net other income was primarily due to gains of $10.5 million related to the disposition of equity securities of Liberate Technologies, Inc. and e-Sim, Inc. Wind River sold 208,333 common shares of Liberate at prices ranging from $26.94 to $108.00 per share and 95,100 common shares of e-Sim at prices ranging from $18.38 to $36.99 per share during fiscal year 2001. During fiscal year 2000, Wind River recognized a charge totaling $500,000 relating to the difference between the carrying amount of its investment in Xact, Inc. and management's assessment of the net realizable value of the investment.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
Net income for fiscal 2001 was negatively impacted by $33.3 million in acquisition related and other charges, including $8.1 million, of in-process research and development costs and $95.9 million in amortization of goodwill and purchased intangibles. Despite the occurrence of a net loss in fiscal 2001, a tax provision resulted due to the exclusion of amortization of goodwill and other purchased intangibles, and the exclusion of in-process research and development and other acquisition charges, which are non-deductible for income tax purposes. The effective tax rate for fiscal 2001 excluding amortization of goodwill and purchased intangibles and acquisition charges was 37.5% compared to 37.2% for fiscal 2000. The change in the effective tax rate excluding amortization of goodwill and purchased intangibles and acquisition charges is attributed to the change in the ratio of foreign taxable income to domestic taxable income and carryforward tax attributes.
YEARS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2000 AND 1999
REVENUES
Total revenues increased by 19% to $316.1 million in fiscal year 2000 from $265.2 million in fiscal year 1999. The increase in revenues is due to increases in both Wind River's product revenues and services revenues. Product revenues accounted for approximately 67% and 65% of the total revenues in fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively, and service revenues accounted for approximately 33% and 35% of total revenues in fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Product revenues increased by 23% to $210.7 million in fiscal year 2000 from $171.8 million in fiscal year 1999. The increase is due primarily to the continued acceptance of Wind River's products such as the Tornado II integrated development environment and increased run-time license revenues, as well as increased product lines resulting from research and development and integration of products acquired from Integrated Systems, Xact and RouterWare.
24
Service revenues increased 13% to $105.4 million in fiscal year 2000 from $93.4 million in fiscal year 1999. The increase was primarily due to an increase in maintenance support agreements, both new and recurring resulting from Wind River's base of installed development environments and software applications provided to customers.
The percentage of Wind River's total revenues from customers located internationally was 37% in fiscal years 2000 and 1999. The percentage of revenues from the Europe and Asia Pacific regions remained relatively constant in fiscal years 2000 and 1999 at 24% of total revenues. Wind River expects international sales to continue to represent a significant portion of revenues, although the percentage may fluctuate from period to period. Wind River's international sales are denominated in the local currencies, and an increase in the relative value of the dollar against such currencies would reduce Wind River's revenues in dollar terms or make Wind River's products more expensive and, therefore, potentially less competitive in foreign markets. Wind River actively monitors its foreign currency exchange exposure; and to date such exposures have not had a material impact on Wind River's results of operations. The risks associated with international sales, are more fully discussed in the "Risk Factors" section contained in Item 1 of this Report.
COST OF REVENUES
The overall cost of revenues as a percentage of total revenues was 23% in fiscal 2000 and fiscal 1999. Cost of revenues comprises cost of products and cost of services.
Cost of products was $27.7 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $23.5 million in fiscal 1999. Product-related cost of revenues as a percentage of product revenues was 13% and 14% in fiscal years 2000 and 1999, respectively. Product costs include salaries and benefits for production employees, product media, license and other direct purchase costs of third-party software that is distributed by or integrated into Wind River's products and the amortization of capitalized software development costs. Amortization of capitalized software development costs included in cost of products amounted to $2.4 million and $1.9 million in fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively. At January 31, 2000 and 1999, Wind River had net capitalized software costs of $3.1 million and $3.7 million, respectively.
Cost of services was $43.4 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $35.9 million in fiscal 1999. Service related cost of revenues as a percentage of service revenues was 41% and 38% in fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in cost of service revenues as a percentage of service revenues is due to investment in developing new service offerings, including consulting, and the addition of service professionals.
SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSES
Selling and marketing expenses were $123.3 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $93.7 million in fiscal 1999. As a percentage of total revenues, selling and marketing expenses were 39% and 35%, respectively, in fiscal 2000 and fiscal 1999. The increase as a percentage of revenues from fiscal 1999 to 2000 resulted primarily from the growth of sales and marketing personnel and field engineers and related costs and increases in expenses related to marketing and advertising programs and third-party marketing costs for product introductions, including the Tornado II integrated development environment, and promotions.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING EXPENSES
Product development and engineering expenses were $55.3 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $37.8 million in fiscal 1999, an increase of 46%. As a percentage of revenues, product development and engineering expenses were 17% and 14%, respectively, in fiscal 2000 and fiscal 1999. The increase in product development and engineering expenses as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to the increase in staff and associated support for engineers to expand and enhance Wind River's product
25
lines, including the costs associated with integrating engineering teams from Xact, RouterWare and Software Development Systems.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
General and administrative expenses were $33.9 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $23.3 million in fiscal 1999, an increase of 45%. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses increased to 11% in fiscal 2000 from 9% in fiscal 1999. The increase was primarily due to the growth in worldwide staff and infrastructure investments in the areas of information systems, finance and administration. Wind River's Oracle financial and production computer systems became operational during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2000.
AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL AND PURCHASED INTANGIBLES
Amortization of goodwill and purchased intangibles was $6.3 million in fiscal 2000 and $1.3 million in fiscal 1999. This increase was primarily due to Integrated Systems' acquisition of Software Development Systems in fiscal year 2000. Amortization of goodwill and purchased intangible assets include the amortization of goodwill and other purchased intangible assets relating to various purchase acquisitions.
ACQUISITION RELATED COSTS
Acquisition related costs were $9.9 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $7.3 million in fiscal 1999. The costs in fiscal 2000 relate primarily to Integrated Systems' acquisition in July 1999 of Software Development Systems, including a $6.3 million charge relating to the write-off of in-process research and development costs, and to the acquisition of RouterWare, and to the costs associated with hiring the Xact employees, acquiring equipment and other assets of Xact and revising a second distribution agreement for another product with Xact. Costs in fiscal 1999 consist of arbitration-related expenses from a legal settlement at Integrated Systems.
OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE
Interest income was $18.9 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $18.6 million in fiscal 1999. The increase is primarily due to a larger investment portfolio and restricted cash accounts. Total cash, investments and restricted cash at January 31, 2000 and 1999 was approximately $352.3 million and $325.0 million, respectively.
Interest expense was $7.0 million during fiscal 2000 and 1999. Wind River pays interest on its outstanding 5.0% convertible subordinated notes due in August of 2002 and maturities of certain issuance costs associated with these notes. The interest on the notes is payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year commending February 1, 1998.
Other income and expense, net for fiscal 2000 was a net expense of $2.4 million compared to $1.9 million in fiscal 1999. The increase in net expense is primarily due to a charge during the first quarter of fiscal 2000 of $500,000, relating to the difference between the carrying amount of investment in Xact and the net realizable value.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate was 59.7% in fiscal 2000 compared to 32.2% in fiscal 1999. The increase is primarily due to non-deductible acquisition costs related to Software Development Systems. Excluding the impact of these costs, the effective tax rate for fiscal year 2000 was 37.2%. The 32.2% effective tax rate for fiscal year 1999 includes a $2.4 million federal tax benefit related to a tax election at Integrated Systems. Excluding this tax benefit, the effective tax rate for fiscal year 1999 was 36.9%. Variations in the effective tax rate result primarily from differences between foreign and domestic tax rates and the ratio of foreign taxable income to domestic taxable income and varying levels of research and development credits.
26
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At January 31, 2001, Wind River had working capital of approximately $145.2 million and cash and investments of approximately $289.6 million, which include investments with maturities of greater than one year of $155.4 million and excludes restricted cash of $61.3 million. Wind River invests primarily in instruments that are highly liquid and of investment grade. Cash flows for the fiscal year ended 2001 include cash flows from companies acquired as purchase transactions from the date of their acquisition.
In fiscal 2001, Wind River's operating activities provided net cash of $24.6 million compared to $35.5 million in fiscal 2000, and $53.8 million in fiscal 1999. Net cash provided by operating activities for fiscal 2001 of $24.6 million was primarily due to net cash flows from operations of $55.4 million before changes in assets and liabilities of $30.8 million. Net cash flows from operations before changes in assets and liabilities consisted of the net loss of $76.4 million and other items for $2.1 million, which were offset by depreciation and amortization of $112.3 million, a tax benefit of $12.0 million and acquired in-process research and development of $8.1 million. Net changes in assets and liabilities consisted primarily of the increase in accounts receivable of $31.5 million due to increased sales activity, and an increase in other assets and liabilities of $9.4 million, which were offset by increases in accrued compensation, deferred revenues, accrued liabilities and accounts payable which totaled $10.7 million.
In fiscal 2001, Wind River's investing activities used net cash of $70.2 million compared to $23.2 million in fiscal 2000, and $101.5 million in fiscal 1999. Uses of cash relating to the purchase of available-for-sale investments, business acquisitions and the purchase of equipment, were partially offset by cash provided from the sale of available-for-sale investments. As Wind River transitioned its investment portfolio from long-term to short-term investments its short-term investments increased by $13.0 million. Restricted cash increased due to the new collateral funding for the second corporate facility operating lease. The collateral consists of direct obligations of the United States government, with the majority being long-term investments.
In fiscal 2001, Wind River's financing activities provided net cash of $60.5 million compared to $9.7 million in fiscal 2000, and a usage of cash of $6.0 million in fiscal 1999. During fiscal 2001, cash provided by the issuance of common stock from stock option exercises and the increase in a line of credit at the Wind River's Japanese subsidiary were partially offset by the repayment of bank borrowings associated with acquired companies. During fiscal 1999, both Wind River and Integrated Systems repurchased common stock for amounts totaling approximately $10.0 million through existing stock repurchase programs. In June 1999, the Board of Directors rescinded all stock repurchase authorizations. Wind River has not made any repurchases since March 17, 1999. On September 7, 1999, its CEO signed a secured promissory note with the Company to borrow up to $2.4 million. As of January 31, 2001, the CEO had borrowed $1.8 million against this note.
In July 1997, Wind River issued $140 million of 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes, which mature on August 1, 2002. The Notes are subordinated to all existing and future senior debt and are convertible into shares of Wind River's common stock at a price of $32.33 per share. The Notes are redeemable at the option of Wind River, in whole or in part, at any time on or after August 2, 2000 at 102% of the principal amount initially, and thereafter at prices declining to 100% at maturity, in each case plus accrued interest. Each holder of these Notes has the right, subject to certain conditions and restrictions, to require Wind River to offer to repurchase all outstanding Notes, in whole or in part, owned by such holder, at specified repurchase prices plus accrued interest upon the occurrence of certain events. The $5.1 million of costs incurred in connection with the offering are included in prepaid and other assets. These costs are being amortized to interest expense over the 5-year term of the Notes using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. Interest on the Notes began accruing July 31, 1997 and is payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1,
27
commencing on February 1, 1998. We do not know at this time whether we will be able to refinance the Notes on favorable terms or at all. See Item 1 "RISK FACTORS" in this Report.
In fiscal year 1998 and fiscal year 2000, Wind River entered into operating leases for its headquarters facility constructed on land owned by Wind River. Construction of the latest set of buildings was completed in January 2001. The lessor has funded a total of $32.4 million of construction costs related to the first set of buildings and operating lease and has funded a total of $23.6 million of construction costs related to the second set of buildings and second operating lease. The operating lease payments will vary based upon the total construction costs of the buildings, which include capitalized interest and the London interbank offering rate ("LIBOR"). In connection with the lease of Wind River's headquarters, Wind River has entered into a ground lease of its land in Alameda, California, with the lessor of the building at a nominal rate and for a term of 55 years. If Wind River terminates or does not negotiate an extension of the building lease, the ground lease converts to a market rental rate. The ground lease provides Wind River with the option at the end of the lease terms to either acquire the buildings at the lessor's original cost or arrange for the buildings to be acquired. Wind River has guaranteed the residual value associated with the buildings under the first operating lease and second operating lease to the lessor of approximately 82% and 84.5%, respectively, of the lessor's actual funding of the two leases. Wind River is also required to deposit fixed income securities with a custodian as a deposit to secure the performance of its obligations under the lease. In addition, under the terms of the lease, Wind River must maintain compliance with certain financial covenants. As of January 31, 2001, Wind River was in compliance with these covenants. Management believes that the contingent liability relating to the residual value guarantee will not have a material adverse effect on Wind River's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
On March 18, 1998, Wind River entered into an accreting interest rate swap agreement to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its floating rate operating lease for its new corporate headquarters. The swap agreement effectively changes Wind River's interest rate exposure on its operating lease, which is based on the one month LIBOR, to a fixed rate of 5.9%. At January 31, 2001, the notional amount of the accreting interest rate swap was $28.5 million. On January 10, 2001, Wind River entered into another interest rate swap agreement to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its second floating rate operating lease for the additional construction of its headquarters facility. This second swap agreement changes Wind River's interest rate exposure on its second operating lease, which is based on the one month LIBOR, to a fixed rate of 5.6%. At January 31, 2001, the notional amount of the interest rate swap was $27.9 million. The differential to be paid or received under both swap agreements will be recognized as an adjustment to rent expense related to the respective operating leases. The swap agreements mature at the same time as their respective operating lease expires. The amounts potentially subject to credit risk (arising from the possible inability of the counterparties to meet the term of their contracts) are generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparties' obligations exceed the obligations of Wind River. Wind River is required to adopt SFAS 138 and SFAS 133 in the first quarter of fiscal 2002, and believes it will not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Wind River has an investment portfolio of fixed income securities that are classified as available-for-sale securities. These securities, like all fixed income instruments, are subject to interest rate risk and will decline in value if market interest rates increase. Wind River attempts to limit this exposure by investing in high-grade fixed income securities.
Management believes that Wind River's working capital and cash flow generated from operations are sufficient to meet its working capital requirements for planned expansion, product development and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months and on a longer term basis; however, Wind River may sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain credit facilities to further enhance its liquidity position. The sale of additional securities could result in additional dilution to Wind River's stockholders.
28
EURO CURRENCY
On January 1, 1999, several member countries of the European Union established fixed conversion rates between their sovereign currencies and adopted the Euro as their new common legal currency. Since that date, the Euro has traded on currency exchanges. The legacy currencies will remain legal tender in the participating countries for a transition period between January 1999 and January 1, 2002. During the transition period, non-cash payments can be made in Euros, and parties can elect to pay for goods and services and transact business using either the Euro or a legacy currency. Between January 1, 2002 and February 28, 2002, the participating countries will introduce Euro notes and coins and withdraw all legacy currencies from circulation. The Euro conversion may affect cross-border competition by creating cross-border price transparency. Wind River is assessing its pricing and marketing strategy in order to insure that it remains competitive in a broader European market and is reviewing whether certain existing contracts will need to be modified. Wind River has assessed the ability of information technology systems to allow for transactions to take place in both the legacy currencies and the Euro and the eventual elimination of the legacy currencies and believes that its information technology systems will not be affected by the transition to the Euro. Wind River does not presently expect that introduction and use of the Euro will materially affect Wind River's foreign exchange exposures and hedging activities or will result in any material increase in costs to Wind River. Wind River's currency risk and risk management for operations in participating countries may be reduced as the legacy currencies are converted to the Euro. Final accounting, tax and governmental, legal and regulatory guidance is not available. Wind River will continue to evaluate issues involving introduction of the Euro. Based on current information and Wind River's current assessment, the Company does not expect that the Euro conversion will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 requires companies to record derivatives on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair values of those derivatives would be accounted for in current earnings unless specific hedge criteria are met. The key criterion for hedge accounting is that the hedging relationship must be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows. Wind River must formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of qualifying hedging transactions. In July 1999, the FASB issued SFAS 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging ActivitiesDeferral of the Effective Date of SFAS No. 133." SFAS 137 deferred the effective date of SFAS 133 until the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activitiesan Amendment of SFAS 133." SFAS 138 amends SFAS 133 to permit limited use of central treasury "offsetting" of net exposures of inter-company derivatives for foreign currency cash flow hedges. The adoption of these standards in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 had no material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44, ("FIN 44"), "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensationan Interpretation of APB 25." This Interpretation clarifies: (a) the definition of employee for purposes of applying Opinion 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a non-compensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. This Interpretation is effective July 1, 2000, but certain conclusions in this Interpretation cover specific events that occur after either December 15, 1998, or January 12, 2000. Wind River has adopted the provisions of FIN 44, which has not had a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
29
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY
Wind River's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relate primarily to its investment portfolio and long-term debt obligations.
Wind River places its investments with high quality credit issuers and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. As stated in its policy, Wind River's first priority is to reduce the risk of principal loss. Consequently, Wind River seeks to preserve its invested funds by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. Wind River mitigates default risk by investing in only high quality credit securities that it believes to be low risk and by positioning its portfolio to respond appropriately to a significant reduction in a credit rating of any investment issuer or guarantor. The portfolio includes only marketable securities with active secondary or resale markets to ensure portfolio liquidity.
Wind River believes an immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates affecting Wind River's floating and fixed rate financial instruments as of January 31, 2001 would have an immaterial effect on Wind River's pretax earnings. Wind River also believes the immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates would have an immaterial effect on the fair value of Wind River's fixed income securities.
In March 1998, Wind River entered into a 5.9% accreting interest rate swap to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its floating interest rate operating lease for its new headquarters. At January 31, 2001, the notional amount of the accreting interest rate swap was $28.5 million. The estimated fair value at January 31, 2001 was negligible.
In January 2001, Wind River entered into a 5.6% interest rate swap to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes on its second floating interest rate operating lease for the additional construction of its headquarters facility. The notional amount of the interest rate swap was $27.9 million. The estimated fair value at January 31, 2001 was negligible.
FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK
Wind River transacts business in various foreign currencies, primarily in Japanese yen and certain European currencies. Wind River has established a foreign currency-hedging program, utilizing foreign currency exchange contracts for its foreign currency transaction exposures in Japan and certain European countries. Under this program, increases or decreases in Wind River's foreign currency transactions are partially offset by gains and losses on the forward contracts, so as to mitigate the possibility of foreign currency transaction gains and losses. Wind River does not use forward contracts for trading purposes. All outstanding forward contracts at the end of a period are marked-to-market with unrealized gains and losses included in other income, net, and thus are recognized in income in advance of the actual foreign currency cash flows. As these forward contracts mature the realized gains and losses are recorded and are included in net income as a component of other income, net. Wind River's ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to currency fluctuations will depend on the currency exchange rates and other factors in effect as the contracts mature. At January 31, 2001, Wind River had outstanding forward contracts to hedge Japanese Yen with notional amounts totaling approximately $2.0 million.
The unrealized gains and losses on the outstanding forward contracts at January 31, 2001 were immaterial to Wind River's consolidated financial statements. Due to the short-term nature of the forward contracts, the fair value at January 31, 2001 was negligible. The realized gains and losses on these contracts as they matured were not material to the consolidated operations of Wind River in fiscal 2001.
30
EQUITY PRICE RISK
Wind River owns 338,652 shares of common stock of e-Sim, an Israeli corporation. Wind River purchased the common stock prior to e-Sim's public offering. e-Sim went public in July 1998 at $7.50 per share, and at January 31, 2001, the closing price of e-Sim's stock was $2.75 per share. Wind River also owns 208,333 shares of common stock of Liberate, a Delaware corporation. Wind River purchased the stock prior to Liberate's public offering. Liberate went public in July 1999 at $16.00 per share, and at January 31, 2001, the closing price of Liberate's stock was $17.31 per share. In addition, Wind River owns 90,909 shares of common stock of Tvia, a Delaware corporation. Wind River purchased the common stock prior to Tvia's public offering. Tvia went public in August 2000 at $11.00 per share, and at January 31, 2001, the closing price of Tvia's stock was $2.75 per share. Wind River values these investments using the closing price of the stock at the end of each month. As a result, Wind River reflects these investment on its balance sheet at January 31, 2001 at their market value of approximately $4.8 million in aggregate, with net unrealized gains of $600,000 excluded from earnings and reported, net of tax effect, in accumulated other comprehensive income component of stockholders' equity. At April 16, 2001, the closing prices of e-Sim's, Liberate's and Tvia's stock were $1.12, $8.83 and $1.74, respectively. In addition to the publicly traded stock, Wind River owns stock in several privately held companies. Wind River monitors the value of these investments periodically and has not found any material differences to the carrying value of the investments.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS OF
WIND RIVER SYSTEMS, INC.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wind River Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries at January 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
Wind River Systems, together with its subsidiaries, develops, markets, supports and provides consulting services for advanced software operating systems and development tools that allow customers to create complex, robust, software applications for embedded computers. An embedded computer is a microprocessor that is incorporated into a larger device and is dedicated to responding to external events by performing specific tasks quickly, predictably and reliably. The Company's flagship products, the Tornado® development platform and the VxWorks® real-time operating system, enable customers to enhance product performance, standardize designs across projects, reduce research and development costs and shorten product development cycles. Wind River markets its products and services in North America, Europe, Japan and Asia Pacific primarily through its own direct sales organization, consisting of salespersons and field engineers. Wind River was incorporated in California in February 1983 and reincorporated in Delaware in April 1993.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation. Wind River has a fiscal year end of January 31. Its international subsidiaries have fiscal year-ends of December 31. The consolidated financial statements include the international subsidiaries' financial information as of December 31 and for the year then ended. All historical financial information has been restated to reflect the acquisition of Integrated Systems in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 and RouterWare in the second quarter of fiscal 2000, each of which was accounted for as a pooling of interests. Acquisitions that have been accounted for as purchase transactions have been included in the consolidated results from their date of purchase. Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current years' presentation.
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wind River Systems and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and could affect future operating results.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with remaining maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less. These investments consist of fixed income securities, which are readily convertible to cash and are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. Fair value is determined based upon the quoted market prices of the securities as of the balance sheet date.
Investments. Investments with original maturities greater than three months and less than one year are classified as short-term investments. Investments with maturities greater than one year are classified as long-term investments. Wind River accounts for its investments, including marketable equity securities, money market funds, municipal bonds, U.S. government and agency obligations, corporate bonds and other debt securities, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." Wind River determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such classification as of each balance sheet date. Wind River has classified all of its investments as available-for-sale and carries such investments at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported in
38
the accumulated other comprehensive income component of stockholders' equity until disposition. Fair value is determined based upon the quoted market prices of the securities as of the balance sheet date. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Realized gains or losses and declines in value, if any, judged to be other than temporary on available-for-sale securities are reported in other income or expense.
Wind River also has certain other minority investments in non-publicly traded companies. These investments are included in other assets on the Company's balance sheet and are carried at cost. The Company monitors these investments for impairment and makes appropriate reductions in carrying values when necessary. No impairment of these investments has been recorded to date.
Other Assets. Current assets includes inventory, prepaid expenses, security deposits and the current portion of deferred taxes. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value, with cost being determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Other long-term assets include equity investments in other companies, deposits, prepaid expenses and bond issuance costs. Equity investments are accounted for using the cost method of accounting.
Concentrations of Credit Risk. Wind River's financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, investments, and accounts receivable. Wind River's investments consist of investment grade securities managed by qualified professional investment managers. The investment policy is intended to limit Wind River's exposure to concentration of credit risk. Wind River's accounts receivable results primarily from software sales to a broad customer base both domestically and internationally and are typically unsecured. Wind River performs on-going credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition, limits the amount of credit when deemed necessary and maintains allowances for potential credit losses; historically, such losses have been immaterial. As a consequence, concentrations of credit risk are limited.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. For certain of Wind River's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Based on borrowing rates currently available to Wind River, the carrying value of the line of credit approximates fair value. The estimated fair value for the convertible subordinated notes (with a carrying amount of $140 million at January 31, 2001) was approximately $174.7 million at January 31, 2001. The fair value for the convertible subordinated notes is based on quoted market prices.
Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation on equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is generally two to four years for computer equipment and four to ten years for furniture and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the related lease or useful economic life, if shorter. Gains and losses on disposals are included in results of operations at amounts equal to the difference between the net book value of the disposed assets and the proceeds received upon disposal. Expenditures for replacements and improvements are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to income as incurred.
Internal Use Software. Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use", provides guidance for determining whether computer software is internal-use software and on accounting for the proceeds of computer software originally developed or obtained for internal use and then subsequently sold to the public. It also provides guidance on capitalization of the costs incurred for computer software developed or
39
obtained for internal use. The Company capitalizes substantially all external costs related to the purchase and implementation of software projects used for business operations and engineering design activities. Capitalized software costs primarily include purchased software and external consulting fees. Capitalized software projects are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the projects, typically a two to five year period. The Company had $18.8 million and $10.4 million of capitalized software costs and $7.1 million and $2.8 million of accumulated amortization included in property and equipment at January 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Software Development Costs. Wind River accounts for software development costs in accordance with SFAS 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed." Costs incurred to establish the technological feasibility of a computer software product are considered research and development costs and are expensed as incurred. When the technological feasibility of a software product has been established using the working model approach, development costs are capitalized. Capitalization of these costs ceases when the product is considered available for general release to customers. Amortization of capitalized software development costs is provided on a product-by-product basis at the greater of the amount computed using (a) the ratio of current gross revenues for a product to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues or (b) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product. Generally, an original estimated economic life of two years is assigned to capitalized software development costs. Amortization of capitalized software costs is charged to cost of product revenues. Research and development expenditures are charged to research and development in the period incurred. The amortization of capitalized software costs, which were charged to cost of product revenues during fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $2.4 million, $2.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively. At January 31, 2001 and 2000, Wind River had net capitalized software costs of $1.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively.
Goodwill and Purchased Intangibles. Intangible assets resulting from the acquisitions of entities accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, are estimated by management based on the fair value of assets received. These include acquired customer base, workforce, technological know how, trademarks and goodwill. Intangible assets are amortized over periods from one year to five years on a straight-line basis. Accumulated amortization for intangibles at January 31, 2001 and 2000 was $102.3 million and $6.4 million, respectively (see Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). Amortization expense relating to completed technology for fiscal years ended January 31, 2001 and 2000, was $7.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively, and was reported under operating expenses.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Wind River evaluates the recoverability of its property and equipment and intangible assets in accordance with SFAS 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of." SFAS 121 requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets. Accordingly, Wind River evaluates asset recoverability at each balance sheet date or when an event occurs that may impair recoverability of the asset. Wind River determines the recoverability of the carrying amount of each intangible asset by reviewing the following factors: the undiscounted value of expected operating cash flows in relation to its net capital investments, the estimated useful or contractual life of the intangible asset, the contract or product supporting the intangible asset. In the case of purchased intangibles and capitalized software development costs, Wind River periodically reviews the recoverability of the assets value by evaluating
40
its products with respect to technological advances, competitive products and the needs of its customers. No impairment of long-lived assets has been recorded to date.
Restricted Cash. Restricted cash consists of the investments held as collateral under the operating lease of Wind River's headquarters. Fair value is determined based upon the quoted market prices of the securities as of the balance sheet date.
Revenue Recognition. Wind River recognizes revenues in accordance with SOP 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition," as amended by SOP 98-4, "Deferral of the Effective Date of Certain Provisions of SOP 97-2," effective February 1, 1998 and by SOP 98-9, "Modification of SOP 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition' with Respect to Certain Transactions."
In December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 101, "Revenue Recognition," which out-lines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenues and provides guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with the SEC. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
Product revenues consist of royalties and fees for operating systems and fees for the use of development tools. Service revenues are derived from fees from professional services, which include design and development fees, software maintenance contracts, customer training and consulting. Maintenance contracts are generally sold separately from the products. Wind River's customers consist of end users, distributors, original equipment manufacturers, system integrators and value-added resellers.
Product revenues for software are recognized at the time of shipment or upon the delivery of a product master in satisfaction of non-cancelable contractual agreements provided that collection of the resulting receivable is probable, the fee is fixed or determinable and vendor-specific objective evidence ("VSOE") exists to allocate the total fee to all delivered and undelivered elements of the arrangement. Any maintenance included in these arrangements is deferred based on VSOE and recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement. Product revenues for hardware are recognized upon shipment provided that persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, no significant obligations remain, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collectibility is considered probable. Service revenues from engineering services contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion basis, or as performed. Service revenues from software maintenance, support and update fees (post-contract support) are recognized ratably over the contract period. Services revenues from training and consulting are recognized when the services are provided.
Deferred revenues result primarily from customer prepayments under software maintenance, which are recognized ratably over the life of the agreements, certain run-time agreements, which are recognized as target licenses are delivered and collection is reasonably assured, and professional services and engineering services contracts or training arrangements, which are recognized as services are performed.
Stock-Based Compensation. Wind River accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," ("APB 25") and complies with the disclosure provisions of SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation." Under APB 25, compensation cost is recognized over the vesting period based on the difference, if any, on the date of grant between the
41
fair value of Wind River's stock and the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Wind River's policy is to grant options with an exercise price equal to the quoted market price of Wind River's stock on the grant date. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for these stock options.
Income Taxes. Income taxes are computed using an asset and liability approach, which requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on provisions of the enacted tax law; the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated. Deferred tax assets are reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.
Minority Interest. Minority interest represented the 30% minority interest held by the Japanese joint venture participants in WRSKK. Wind River acquired the 30% minority interest in WRSKK in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. (see Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Net Income per Share. Net income per share includes basic net income per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, and diluted net income per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and all dilutive potential common shares outstanding. Dilutive potential common shares consist of stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method) and convertible subordinated notes (using the if converted method). Dilutive potential common shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Comprehensive Income. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a company during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The primary difference between net income and comprehensive income, for Wind River, results from foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities.
The functional currency of foreign subsidiaries are translated using the exchange rates in effect at the end of the period, while income and expense items are translated at average rates of exchange during the period. Gains or losses from translation of foreign operations where the local currency is the functional currency are included as other comprehensive income or loss. The net gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are recorded in net income in the period incurred and were not significant for any of the periods presented.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 requires companies to record derivatives on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair values of those derivatives would be accounted for in current earnings unless specific hedge criteria are met. The key criterion for hedge accounting is that the hedging relationship must be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows. Wind River must formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of qualifying hedging transactions. In July 1999, the FASB issued SFAS 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging ActivitiesDeferral of the Effective Date of SFAS No. 133." SFAS 137 deferred the effective date of SFAS 133 until the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging
42
Activitiesan Amendment of SFAS 133." SFAS 138 amends SFAS 133 to permit limited use of central treasury offsetting of net exposures of intercompany derivatives for foreign currency cash flow hedges. SFAS 138 must be adopted concurrently with SFAS 133. The adoption of SFAS 133 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2002 had no material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44 ("FIN 44"), "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensationan Interpretation of APB 25." This Interpretation clarifies: (a) the definition of employee for purposes of applying Opinion 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a non-compensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. This Interpretation is effective July 1, 2000, but certain conclusions in this Interpretation cover specific events that occur after either December 15, 1998, or January 12, 2000. Wind River has adopted the provisions of FIN 44, which has not had a material effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
NOTE 3: ACQUISITIONS
POOLING OF INTERESTS COMBINATIONS
On June 30, 1999, Wind River completed the acquisition of RouterWare. In connection with the merger: (a) each outstanding share of RouterWare common stock was exchanged for 1.82731 shares of Wind River common stock, resulting in the issuance of an aggregate of 730,923 shares of Wind River common stock for all outstanding shares of RouterWare common stock, and (b) all options to purchase shares of RouterWare common stock outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the merger were converted into options to purchase 634,065 shares of Wind River common stock. The merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests, and all financial data of Wind River has been restated to include the historical financial information of RouterWare. In connection with the acquisition of RouterWare, Wind River incurred approximately $930,000 in merger related expenses consisting primarily of transaction fees.
On February 15, 2000, Wind River completed its acquisition of Integrated Systems in a stock-for-stock merger transaction. In connection with the merger: (a) each outstanding share of Integrated Systems common stock was exchanged for .92 of a share of Wind River common stock, resulting in the issuance of an aggregate of 22,499,895 shares of Wind River common stock for all outstanding shares of Integrated Systems common stock, and (b) all options to purchase shares of Integrated Systems common stock outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the merger were converted into options to purchase 4,133,128 shares of Wind River common stock. The merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests, and all financial data of Wind River has been restated to include the historical financial information of Integrated Systems. Wind River and Integrated Systems incurred approximately $25.2 million of costs associated with the merger, including $11.1 million for investment banking fees, $6.8 million in severance payments, $3.1 million for office closure and other costs for surplus sales offices in the United States, Europe and Japan, $3.6 million for legal, accounting and other professional fees which relate primarily to the acquisition process for Integrated Systems and the elimination of acquired legal entities in the United States, Europe and Japan, and $600,000 for general integration costs.

RouterWare used a calendar year end and Integrated Systems used a February 28th fiscal year end. In order for all companies to operate on Wind River's January 31st fiscal year end, operations for the one-month differences, which were not significant to the Company, have been reflected as an adjustment to retained earnings in fiscal 2000. No significant adjustments were necessary to conform accounting policies. However, the companies' historical results have been adjusted to reflect the elimination of inter-company transactions in any period presented.
The results of operations for the twelve months ended January 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, incorporating businesses acquired as pooling of interests are summarized in the consolidated statements of operations. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated.
PURCHASE COMBINATIONS
Wind River made a number of acquisitions accounted for as purchase transactions. The consolidated financial statements include the operating results of each business from the date of acquisition. The purchase price for each acquisition is allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of the estimated fair values on the effective date of their acquisition. For acquisitions that occurred during fiscal 2001, Wind River is still refining its purchase price allocation and there may be some resulting adjustments in future periods.
In connection with its purchase acquisitions, Wind River expensed various amounts related to in-process research and development. The amount allocated to in-process research and development represents the purchased in-process technology for projects that, as of the date of the acquisition, had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use. Based on preliminary assessments from an analysis performed by an independent appraiser, the value of these projects was determined by estimating the resulting net cash flows from the sale of the products resulting from the completion of the projects, reduced by the portion of the revenues attributable to core technology and the percentage completion of the project. The resulting net cash flows were then discounted back to their present value at appropriate discount rates.
The discount rate selected for estimating future cash flows ranges from 25% to 30%. In selection of the appropriate discount rate, consideration was given to the Company's estimated weighted-average return on working capital and the Company's estimated weighted-average return on assets. The discount rate used was determined to be higher than the Company's estimated weighted-average return on working capital due to the fact that the technology had not yet reached technological feasibility as
44
of the date of the valuation. In utilizing a discount rate greater than the Company's weighted-average return on working capital, the Company has reflected the risk premium associated with achieving and sustaining growth rates and improved profitability as well as the increased rates of return associated with intangible assets.
Regarding Wind River's purchase acquisitions completed during fiscal 2001 and 2000, actual results to date have been consistent, in all material respects, with its assumptions at the time of the acquisitions. The assumptions primarily consist of an expected completion date for the in-process projects, estimated costs to complete the projects, and revenues and expense projections once the products have entered the market. Failure to achieve the expected levels of revenues and net income from these products during their entire life cycle will negatively impact the return on investment expected at the time that the acquisitions were completed and potentially result in impairment of any other assets related to the development activities.
On March 31, 2000, Wind River completed its acquisition of Embedded Support Tools in a stock-for-stock merger transaction. Embedded Support Tools is a provider of integrated hardware and software for programming, testing and debugging embedded systems. In connection with the acquisition: (a) each outstanding share of Embedded Support Tools common stock was exchanged for .4246 of a share of Wind River common stock, resulting in the issuance of an aggregate of 5,474,788 shares of Wind River common stock for all outstanding shares of Embedded Support Tools common stock, and (b) all options to purchase shares of Embedded Support Tools common stock outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the acquisition were converted into options to purchase 1,122,855 shares of Wind River common stock. The total purchase price of $331.6 million consisted of common stock with a fair market value of $275.7 million, options assumed with a fair market value of $51.5 million, assumed liabilities of $6.2 million and merger costs of $1.9 million. Wind River recorded an expense of $3.7 million for the in-process research and development, which was charged against earnings in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001. There was one project included in the in-process research and development for Embedded Support Tools. The applications from this process will be integrated into Wind River's products. The efforts required to complete the acquired in-process technology include the completion of all planning, designing and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the product can be produced to meet its design requirements.
The following unaudited pro forma summary presents the consolidated results of operations as if the acquisition of Embedded Support Tools had occurred at the beginning of each of the periods presented and does not purport to be indicative of the results that would have been achieved had the acquisition been made as of those dates nor of the results which may occur in the future.

AudeSi is a supplier of Java based tools and other components, for building flexible, multi-application consumer devices. In connection with the acquisition: (a) each outstanding share of AudeSi common stock was exchanged for 0.0927 of an exchangeable share in AudeSi and each such exchangeable share is or will be by its terms, exchangeable on a share-for-share basis for a share of
45
Wind River common stock (the exchange of all such exchangeable shares requiring the ultimate issuance of an aggregate of 957,169 shares of Wind River common stock), and (b) all options to purchase AudeSi common stock immediately prior to the consummation of the acquisition were converted into options to purchase 119,488 shares of Wind River common stock. The total purchase price of $52.4 million consisted of common stock with a fair market value of $47.2 million, options assumed with a fair market value of $4.7 million and merger costs of $500,000.

In connection with the acquisition, Wind River recorded an expense of $100,000 for in-process research and development, which was charged against earnings in the third quarter of fiscal year 2001.
On October 24, 2000, Wind River completed its acquisition of Rapid Logic in a stock-for-stock merger transaction. Rapid Logic is the provider of advanced device management technologies for networking equipment and other intelligent devices. In connection with the acquisition: (a) each outstanding share of Rapid Logic common stock was exchanged for 0.0730 of a share of Wind River common stock, resulting in the issuance of an aggregate of 1,244,940 shares of Wind River common stock for all outstanding shares of Rapid Logic common stock, and (b) all options to purchase shares of Rapid Logic common stock outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the acquisition were converted into fully-vested options to purchase 126,298 shares of Wind River common stock. The total purchase price of approximately $57.5 million consisted of common stock with a fair market value of $51.8 million, options assumed with a fair market value of $5.0 million and merger costs of $700,000. In connection with the acquisition, Wind River recorded an expense of $3.25 million for in-process research and development, which was charged against earnings in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2001.
On July 21, 1999, Wind River acquired Software Development Systems, a privately held corporation, for approximately $22.1 million in cash and 1,430,047 in Integrated Systems' common stock. The total purchase price of $39.9 million consisted of cash of $22.1 million and common stock with fair market value of $17.8 million. Software Development Systems is a provider of various embedded software tools. This transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. In connection with the acquisition, Wind River recorded an expense of $6.3 million for in-process research and development, which was charged against earnings in the second quarter of fiscal year 2000.
Pro forma results of operations for AudeSi, ICESoft, Rapid Logic, and Software Development Systems have not been presented because the effects of these acquisitions were not material on either an individual or an aggregate basis.

NOTE 6: DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Wind River enters into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage exposure related to certain foreign currency denominated inter-company balances. Wind River does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Wind River may, from time to time, adjust its
48
foreign currency hedging position by taking out additional contracts or by terminating or offsetting existing forward contracts. These adjustments may result from changes in the underlying foreign currency exposures or from fundamental shifts in the economics of particular exchange rates. Gains and losses on terminated forward contracts, or on contracts that are offset, are recognized in income in the period of contract termination or offset. At January 31, 2001, Wind River had outstanding forward contracts with notional amounts totaling approximately $2.0 million. These contracts, which mature in less than ninety days, are hedges of certain foreign currency denominated inter-company balances. The difference between cost and fair value at January 31, 2001 was immaterial.
On March 18, 1998, Wind River entered into an accreting interest rate swap agreement to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its floating rate operating lease for its new corporate headquarters. The interest rate swap effectively changes Wind River's interest rate exposure on its operating lease, which is at the one month LIBOR, to a fixed rate of 5.9%. At January 31, 2001, the notional amount of the accreting interest rate swap was $28.5 million and the fair value was negligible. On January 10, 2001, Wind River entered into another interest rate swap agreement to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its second floating rate operating lease for the additional construction of its headquarters facility. This second swap agreement changes Wind River's interest rate exposure on its second operating lease, which is at one month LIBOR, to a fixed rate of 5.6%. At January 31, 2001, the notional amount of the accreting interest rate swap was $27.9 million and the fair value was negligible. The differential to be paid or received under both swap agreements will be recognized as an adjustment to rent expense related to the respective operating leases. The swap agreements mature at the same time as their respective operating lease expires. The amounts potentially subject to credit risk (arising from the possible inability of the counterparties to meet the term of their contracts) are generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparties' obligations exceed the obligations of Wind River.

During the years ended January 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, tax benefits resulting from the exercise of employee stock options amounting to $12.0 million, $5.0 million, and $14.5 million, respectively, were credited to stockholders' equity and reduced income taxes payable.
As of January 31, 2001, the federal net operating loss carry-forwards for income tax purposes were approximately $42.2 million and will begin to expire in 2021. As of January 31, 2001, Wind River had federal and state tax credit carry-forwards of approximately $3.0 million and $800,000, respectively, available to offset future taxable income. The federal credit carry-forwards will begin to expire in 2006.
Deferred tax assets of approximately $18.5 million consisting of certain net operating loss and credit carry-forwards resulting from the exercise of employee stock options have not been recognized in the financial statements. When utilized, the tax benefit of these loss and credit carry-forwards will be accounted for as a credit to additional paid-in capital.

NOTE 8: CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTES AND OTHER BORROWINGS
In July 1997, Wind River issued $140.0 million of 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes, which mature on August 1, 2002. The Notes are subordinated to all existing and future senior debt and are convertible into shares of Wind River's Common Stock at a conversion price of $32.33 per share. The Notes are redeemable at the option of Wind River, in whole or in part, at any time on or after August 2, 2000, at 102% of the principal amount initially, and thereafter at prices declining to 100% at maturity, in each case plus accrued interest. Each holder of these Notes has the right, subject to certain conditions and restrictions, to require Wind River to offer to repurchase all outstanding Notes, in whole or in part, owned by such holder, at specified repurchase prices plus accrued interest upon the occurrence of certain events. The $5.1 million of costs incurred in connection with the offering are included in prepaid and other assets. These costs are being amortized to interest expense over the 5-year term of the Notes using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. Interest on the Notes began accruing July 31, 1997, and is payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1, commencing on February 1, 1998.
As of January 31, 2001, the Company has United States dollar equivalent net borrowings of $14.9 million from its $18.0 million line of credit through a Japanese subsidiary denominated in yen, which matured on March 31, 2001. The average annual interest rate on the amount borrowed is 1.324%.

The effect of assumed conversion of the convertible subordinated notes is anti-dilutive and is therefore excluded from the above computations. In addition, for the year ended January 31, 2001, dilutive potential common shares totaling 5.3 million were excluded from the computation of the number of shares used in the dilutive loss per share calculation as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
NOTE 10: COMMON STOCK
In March 1997 and February 1999, Wind River effected three-for-two splits of its common stock in the form of stock dividends. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to these stock splits.
During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2000, Wind River repurchased approximately 165,000 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of approximately $4.0 million. In June 1999, the Board of Directors rescinded all stock repurchase authorizations. Wind River has not made any repurchases since March 17, 1999.
During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2001 and 2000, Wind River issued 30,176,792 and 730,923 shares of common stock, respectively, in connection with acquisitions (see Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
In October 1999, Wind River's Board of Directors adopted a share purchase rights plan declaring a dividend of one preferred share purchase right for each share of Wind River's common stock outstanding on November 15, 1999. Each right entitles the holder to purchase 1/100th of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, at a price of $160.00 per 1/100th of a preferred share, subject to certain adjustments. The rights will not be distributed until the earlier of the date of a public announcement that a person or a group have acquired beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the outstanding common stock ("Acquiring Person"), or 10 business days following the commencement of, or announcement of an intention to commence a tender offer or exchange offer, the consummation of which would result in any person or entity becoming an Acquiring
52
Person. The rights will expire on October 22, 2001, unless earlier redeemed or exchanged by Wind River.
NOTE 11: STOCK BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
As of January 31, 2001, Wind River had thirteen stock-based compensation plans including the option plans assumed in connection with the acquisitions of RouterWare, Integrated Systems, Embedded Support Tools, AudeSi and Rapid Logic. Wind River accounts for its stock-based compensation plans in conformity with APB 25 and related Interpretations and has adopted the additional pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS 123. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for its fixed stock option plans and its stock purchase plan.
The Amended and Restated 1987 Equity Incentive Plan (the "1987 Plan") allows for the issuance of options and other stock awards to Company employees and consultants to purchase a maximum of 14,175,000 shares of Common Stock. Stock options granted under the 1987 Plan may be incentive stock options or non-statutory stock options. Individuals owning more than 10% of Wind River's stock are not eligible to receive incentive stock options under the 1987 Plan unless the option's price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the date of grant and the term of the option does not exceed five years from the date of grant. Non-statutory stock options issued to holders of less than 10% of Wind River's stock may be granted at prices of at least 85% of the fair market value of the stock at the grant date and with expirations not to exceed ten years from the grant date, although Wind River's current practice is to grant options with exercise prices at least 100% of the fair market value. Under the terms of the 1987 Plan, the Board of Directors establishes option vesting provisions when options are granted. Options generally will vest over four years, although options may be granted that vest upon achievement of performance criteria. Unexercised options are automatically canceled three months after termination of the optionee's employment or other service with Wind River. The Board may suspend or terminate the 1987 Plan at any time. Unless sooner terminated, the 1987 Plan will terminate on September 29, 2002.
In April 1995, Wind River adopted the 1995 Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "Directors' Plan"). The Directors' Plan provides for automatic grants of non-statutory stock options to purchase Common Stock of Wind River to directors of Wind River who are not employees of, or consultants to, Wind River or any affiliate of Wind River (Non-Employee Directors). The Directors' Plan allows for the issuance of options to purchase a maximum of 337,500 shares of Common Stock. Options issued are granted at prices of 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the date of grant and with expirations of ten years from the grant date. Initial options granted to each Non-Employee Director vest in annual increments over a period of four years from the date of grant, commencing on the date one year after the date of grant of the initial options. Subsequent options shall become 100% vested at the end of the one-year period following the date of grant as long as the optionee has attended 75% of the meetings of the board and committees on which he serves. Unexercised options will terminate six months after such optionee's termination of all service with Wind River and its affiliates. The Board may suspend or terminate the Directors' Plan at any time. Unless sooner terminated, the Director's Plan shall terminate once all of the shares subject to the Directors' Plan have been issued on account of the exercise of options granted under the Directors' Plan.
In April 1998, Wind River adopted the 1998 Non-Officer Stock Option Plan (the "Non-Officer Plan"). The Non-Officer Plan provides for grants of non-statutory stock options to employees and
53
consultants who are not officers or directors of Wind River. An aggregate of 7,950,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for issuance under the Non-Officer Plan. The exercise price of non-statutory stock option granted under the Non-Officer Plan may not be less than 85 percent of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. All non-statutory stock options may be granted under the Non-Officer Plan have a maximum term of 10 years. Options generally will vest over four years, although options may be granted that vest upon achievement of performance criteria. The Non-Officer Plan and options thereunder may be amended by the Board from time to time. The Non-Officer Plan will terminate on April 22, 2008.
In April 1998, Wind River adopted the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan (the "1998 Plan"). The 1998 Plan provides for grants of options and other stock awards to Company employees, directors and consultants to purchase a maximum of 4,100,000 shares of Common Stock. Stock options granted under the 1998 Plan may be incentive stock options or non-statutory stock options. Individuals owning more than 10% of Wind River's stock are not eligible to receive incentive stock options under the 1998 Plan unless the option's price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the date of grant and the term of the option does not exceed five years from the date of grant. Non-statutory stock options issued to holders of less than 10% of Wind River's stock may be granted at prices of at least 85% of the fair market value of the stock at the grant date and with expirations not to exceed ten years from the grant date, although Wind River's current practice is to grant options with exercise prices at least 100% of the fair market value. Under the terms of the 1998 Plan, the Board of Directors establishes option vesting provisions when options are granted. Options generally will vest over four years, although options may be granted that vest upon achievement of performance criteria. Unexercised options are automatically canceled three months after termination of the optionee's employment or other service with Wind River. The Board may suspend or terminate the 1998 Plan at any time. Unless sooner terminated, the 1998 Plan will terminate on December 16, 2006.
In connection with the acquisition of RouterWare, Integrated Systems, Embedded Support Tools, AudeSi, and Rapid Logic, Wind River has assumed all of the stock option plans of each acquired company. Approximately, 6.1 million shares of the Company's common stock have been reserved for issuance under the assumed plans, and the related options are included in the following tables. Outstanding options assumed generally vest over one to five year terms and are exercisable for a period of ten years. No further grants will be made under the provisions of these plans.
Activity under all stock option plans described above is summarized as follows:

At January 31, 2000 and 1999, options to purchase 5,453,000 and 3,674,000 shares of common stock were exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $13.89 and $12.57, respectively.
In March 1993, Wind River adopted the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan"). In July 2000, the Board amended the Purchase Plan to increase the aggregate shares from 1,500,000 to 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock, which are authorized for issuance under the Purchase Plan. Under the Purchase Plan, the Board of Directors may authorize participation by eligible employees, including officers, in periodic offerings following the commencement of the Purchase Plan. Employees who participate in an offering can have up to 15% of their earnings withheld pursuant to the Purchase Plan. The amount withheld is used to purchase shares of Common Stock on specified dates determined by the Board. The price of Common Stock purchased under the Purchase Plan is equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Common Stock, determined by the closing price on the Nasdaq National Market, at the commencement date or the ending date of each six month offering period.
Shares issued under the Purchase Plan in fiscal 2001, 2000, and 1999 were 266,000, 455,000, and 231,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively, at an average price of $30.28, $27.20 and $20.28, respectively.

PRO FORMA DISCLOSURES
Under SFAS 123, the fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions used for grants during the years ended January 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999:

The pro forma amounts include compensation expense related to fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999 stock option grants and sales of Common Stock under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan only. The effects of applying SFAS 123 on pro forma disclosures of net income and net income per share in fiscal 2001,

NOTE 12: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Wind River leases certain property consisting of subsidiary headquarters, customer training facilities, sales facilities and equipment under noncancelable operating leases that expire at various dates through January 2022. Future minimum rental payments under non-cancelable operating leases subsequent to January 31, 2001 are as follows (in thousands):

Rental expense during the years ended January 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999 was $14.8 million, $8.5 million, and $5.7 million, respectively.
In fiscal 1998, Wind River entered into an operating lease for a new headquarters facility constructed on the land Wind River purchased in Alameda, California. Construction of the buildings was completed in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000. In August 1999, the lease was finalized and the lease payments began. The operating lease payments will vary based on the total construction costs of the property, including capitalized interest and LIBOR.
In fiscal year 2000, Wind River entered into a second operating lease agreement for the construction of two additional buildings at its headquarter facility which was completed in January 2001. The operating lease payments will vary based upon the total construction costs of the property, including capitalized interest and LIBOR.
In connection with the lease of Wind River's headquarters, Wind River is obligated to enter into a lease of its land in Alameda, California, with the lessor of the building at a nominal rate and for a term of 55 years. If Wind River terminates or does not negotiate an extension of the building leases, the ground lease converts to a market rental rate. The lease provides Wind River with the option at the end of the lease term to either acquire the buildings at the lessor's original cost or arrange for the buildings to be acquired. Wind River has guaranteed the residual value associated with the buildings under the first operating lease and second operating lease to the lessor of approximately 82% and 84.5%, respectively, of the lessor's actual funding of $32.4 million on the first operating lease and obligated funding of $26.0 million on the second operating lease, respectively. Wind River is also required to deposit fixed income securities with a custodian as a deposit to secure the performance of its obligations under the leases. In addition, under the terms of the leases, Wind River must maintain compliance with certain financial covenants. As of January 31, 2001, Wind River was in compliance with these covenants. Management believes that the contingent liability relating to the residual value guarantee will not have a material adverse effect on Wind River's financial condition or results of operations.
57
From time to time, Wind River is subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business, including claims of alleged infringement of patents and other intellectual property rights. Wind River is not currently aware of any legal proceedings or claims that Wind River believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on Wind River's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 13: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During fiscal years 2001, 2000 and 1999, Wind River distributed its products in Japan through WRSKK, a joint venture in which Wind River owned a 70% equity interest. Innotech, Kobe Steel and Nissin Electric, the other partners in the joint venture, each owned a 10% equity interest. Wind River entered into distributor agreements with the three minority interest owners of WRSKK, Innotech, Kobe Steel, and Nissin Electric, in March 1993, October 1991, and October 1991, respectively. The Innotech agreement was amended in December 1995 to provide for an extended contract term and to issue to Innotech a warrant to purchase 337,500 shares of Wind River's Common Stock for $3.29 per share. The warrant was valued at $100,000 and charged to cost of sales in fiscal 1996. The warrant was exercised on January 26, 1999. In March 2000, Wind River notified the master distributors that their distributor agreements would terminate at the end of fiscal 2001. Wind River subsequently acquired the 30% minority interest on December 28, 2000 for amounts approximating $1.2 million, which was primarily accounted for as goodwill, so that it now owns 100% of WRSKK. From fiscal 2002 onwards, Wind River will distribute its products in Japan primarily through its direct sales force.
Products in Japan were sold through WRSKK's three master distributors and through Wind River Japan's direct sales force. Revenues derived from master distributor transactions in Japan amounted to $15.6 million, $21.2 million, and $17.0 million in fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The percentage of Japan revenues from Innotech in fiscal year 2001, 2000 and 1999 was 23%, 21% and 27%, respectively. The percentage of Japan revenues from Kobe Steel in fiscal year 2001, 2000 and 1999 was 11%, 19% and 17%, respectively. The percentage of Japan revenues from Nissin Electric in fiscal year 2001, 2000 and 1999 was 4%, 9% and 7%, respectively. Advances from the joint venture partners were approximately $0 and $1.5 million at January 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
NOTE 14: SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
Wind River has adopted SFAS 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," effective beginning fiscal year 1999. SFAS 131 supersedes SFAS 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise." SFAS 131 changes current practice under SFAS 14 by establishing a new framework on which to base segment reporting and also requires interim reporting of segment information. Wind River operates in one industry segmenttechnology for embedded operating systems. Wind River markets its products and related services to customers in the United States, Canada, Europe, Japan and Asia Pacific. Internationally, Wind River markets its products and services primarily through its subsidiaries and various distributors. Revenues are attributed to
58
geographic areas based on the country in which the customer is domiciled. The distribution of revenues and assets by geographic location is as follows:

64
Non-Employee Director on April 27, 1995 was granted, and each person after such date who was elected for the first time as a Non-Employee Director was automatically granted an option to purchase 15,000 shares of common stock upon the date of his or her election to the Board, which vests in four equal annual installments. Effective February 2001, each person who is initially elected as a Non-Employee Director is automatically granted an option to purchase 24,000 shares of common stock upon the date of his or her election to the Board, which vests in four equal annual installments. Additionally, effective fiscal year 2001, on April 1 of each year, each person who was then a Non-Employee Director was automatically granted an option to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock vesting in full one year from the grant date, provided the optionee had attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and any committees on which he or she served that were held during such period. Effective February 2001, on April 1 of each year, each person who is then a Non-Employee Director is automatically granted an option to purchase 6,000 shares of common stock vesting in full one year from the grant date, provided the optionee has attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and any committees on which he or she serves that were held during such period. As of April 16, 2001, options to purchase 168,125 shares were outstanding under the Directors' Plan and 152,500 shares remained available for grant.
During the last fiscal year, options were granted under the Directors' Plan covering an aggregate of 20,000 shares to each of Messrs. Bolger, Elmore, Inman and Pratt at an exercise price per share of $36.25. Options covering 15,000 shares were granted to Mr. Bolger at an exercise price per share of $43.25 upon his initial election as a director during the last fiscal year. All options have exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the common stock at the time of the grant.

STOCK OPTION GRANTS AND EXERCISES
Wind River's executive officers are awarded stock options under the 1987 Equity Incentive Plan and 1998 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Equity Plans"). The Equity Plans provide that, in the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the company, specified type of merger or other corporate reorganization, at the sole discretion of the Board and to the extent permitted by law, any surviving corporation will be required to either assume options outstanding under the Equity Plans or substitute similar awards for those outstanding under the Equity Plans, outstanding options will continue in full force and effect or outstanding options will be accelerated. In the event that any surviving corporation declines to assume or continue options outstanding under the Equity Plans, or to substitute similar awards, then the time during which such options may be exercised will be accelerated and the options terminated if not exercised at or prior to such event. The Equity Plans also provide for the acceleration of vesting for options that otherwise would vest within the thirty (30) month period following the occurrence of certain hostile changes of control. A "hostile" change of control would involve either (i) the acquisition by any person or related group of a majority of the Company's voting securities which has not been approved by the Board of Directors or (ii) a change of a majority of the members of the Board of Directors in a 24-month period where the new directors were not approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors at the beginning of such period or were seated as the result of a proxy contest or other contest over election of members of the Board of Directors.

EMPLOYMENT, SEVERANCE AND CHANGE OF CONTROL AGREEMENTS
THOMAS M. ST. DENNIS. In September 1999, Wind River and Mr. St. Dennis entered into an employment agreement providing for the employment of Mr. St. Dennis as President and Chief Executive Officer. The agreement provided for Mr. St. Dennis to receive, for fiscal year 2000, an annualized base salary of $400,000, an annualized bonus of $800,000 for on-plan performance, as determined by the Board of Directors, and a sign-on bonus of $959,121. For fiscal years subsequent to 2000, Mr. St. Dennis will receive a bonus equal to twice his base salary for on-plan performance and an additional performance bonus of up to 50% of such amount for performance exceeding plan.
The employment agreement also provided that Mr. St. Dennis would receive an option to purchase 1,100,000 shares of Wind River common stock. In addition, Wind River agreed to lend Mr. St. Dennis, under a secured promissory note, up to $2.4 million to purchase shares of Wind River common stock during the first six months of his employment with the company, secured by a pledge of personal property.
In the event Mr. St. Dennis' employment with the company is terminated other than for Cause, or if he resigns his employment with Good Reason (as each is defined in the employment agreement), in each case other than within 12 months of a change of control (in which event Mr. St. Dennis would receive benefits under the Change in Control Incentive and Severance Benefit Plan described below), Mr. St. Dennis will provide certain consulting services for one year thereafter in exchange for compensation in an amount equal to his annual salary at the time of such termination and a pro rata share of the target on-plan bonus for the year.
CHANGE IN CONTROL INCENTIVE AND SEVERANCE BENEFIT PLAN.
In November 1995, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors adopted the Change in Control Incentive and Severance Benefit Plan (the "Severance Plan") to provide an incentive to officers of Wind River with the title of Vice President or above in the event of certain change of control transactions, and severance benefits in the event of certain terminations of employment within 12 months of the change of control.
69
Upon the occurrence of a change of control, all executive officers, except the Chief Executive Officer, will receive acceleration of vesting for all shares subject to stock options that otherwise would have vested within one year of the date of the change of control. The Chief Executive Officer will receive two years' worth of accelerated vesting, except to the extent that the option acceleration would create adverse tax consequences for the Chief Executive Officer and Wind River under the golden parachute provisions of sections 280G and 49999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, in which case the Chief Executive Officer will have accelerated the maximum number of shares allowed under the golden parachute provisions.
If an executive officer other than the Chief Executive Officer is terminated without Cause or voluntarily terminates with Good Reason (as each is defined in the Severance Plan), within 12 months of a change in control, the executive will receive continued compensation for 12 months (including an estimated bonus amount), continued health insurance for the same period, and accelerated vesting of stock options that otherwise would vest within one year of the date of termination. In addition, for the Chief Executive Officer, any shares which would have received acceleration of vesting on account of the change in control but did not because of the limitation to avoid the golden parachute tax provisions shall receive accelerated vesting on the termination date. If the total severance payments would cause an executive to become liable for golden parachute excise tax payments, then Wind River shall pay that executive's excise tax liability and all other taxes associated with Wind River's payment of the excise tax in order to leave the executive in the same after-tax position as if no excise tax had been imposed.
