NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1. Business Description

DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. is a leading provider of on-demand software, and data solutions for the automotive and related retail industries in the United States. Utilizing the Internet, we have built a network connecting automotive dealers with banks, finance companies, credit unions and other financing sources, and other service and information providers, such as aftermarket providers and the major credit reporting agencies. We have established a network of active relationships in the United States, which as of September 30, 2007, consisted of over 22,000 automotive dealers, including over 90% of all franchised dealers; over 425 financing sources; including the 20 largest independent financing sources and a number of other service and information providers to the automotive retail industry. Our credit application processing product enables dealers to automate and accelerate the indirect automotive financing process by increasing the speed of communications between these dealers and their financing sources. We have leveraged our leading market position in credit application processing to address other inefficiencies in the automotive retail industry value chain. We believe our proven network provides a competitive advantage for distribution of our software and data solutions. Our integrated subscription-based software products and services enable our dealer customers to manage their dealership data and operations, receive valuable consumer leads, compare various financing and leasing options and programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products, analyze inventory, document compliance with certain laws and execute financing contracts electronically. We have also created efficiencies for financing source customers by providing a comprehensive digital and electronic contracting solution. In addition, we offer data and other products and services to various industry participants, including lease residual value and automobile configuration data.

2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2007 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required for a complete set of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement have been included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2007. The December 31, 2006 balance sheet information has been derived from the audited 2006 consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required for a complete set of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. For further information, please refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2007 and amended on April 30, 2007.

Our provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 includes approximately $206,000 of additional tax expense that relates to prior periods. Our provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 includes a $3.7 million tax benefit. The out of period tax adjustment and the tax benefit both relate to one of our Canadian subsidiaries. The reversal of this Canadian subsidiaries $3.7 million deferred tax valuation allowance during the third quarter of 2006 was based on a number of factors, including a history of pre-tax income over a significant period and the level of projected future pre-tax income based on current operations.

3. Net Income per Share

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, we computed net income per share in accordance SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, assuming dilution, during the period. The diluted earnings per share calculation assumes that (i) all stock options, which are in the money are exercised at the beginning of the period and the proceeds used by us to purchase shares at the average market price for the period and (ii) if applicable, unvested awards that are considered to be contingently issuable shares because they contain either a performance or market condition will be included in diluted earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128 if dilutive and if their conditions (a) have been satisfied at the reporting date or (b) would have been satisfied if the reporting date was the end of the contingency period.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2007		2006		2007		2006
Numerator:
Net income	$	4,512	$	5,566	$	15,621	$	13,657

Weighted average common stock outstanding (basic)		39,058,863		35,547,699		38,810,710		35,408,425
Common equivalent shares from options to purchase common stock and restricted common stock (1)		1,781,825		1,441,943		1,768,383		1,470,557


Weighted average common stock outstanding (diluted)		40,840,688		36,989,642		40,579,093		36,878,982


Basic net income per share	$	0.12	$	0.16	$	0.40	$	0.39


Diluted net income per share	$	0.11	$	0.15	$	0.38	$	0.37


(1)		In accordance with SFAS No. 128, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, we have excluded 295,000 and 565,000 contingently issuable shares, respectively, from diluted weighted average common stock outstanding as their contingent conditions (a) have not been satisfied at the reporting date nor (b) would have been satisfied if the reporting date was the end of the contingency period (Refer to Note 13 for further information).

The following is a summary of the weighted shares outstanding during the respective periods that have been excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation because the effect would have been antidilutive:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2007		2006		2007		2006
Stock options		627,346		794,439		489,804		728,370
Restricted common stock		63,707		1,630		22,788		14,060


Total		691,053		796,069		512,592		742,430

4. Comprehensive Income

The components of comprehensive income were as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2007		2006			2007		2006
Net income	$	4,512	$	5,566		$	15,621	$	13,657
Foreign currency translation adjustments		2,840		(12	)		7,753		88


Total	$	7,352	$	5,554		$	23,374	$	13,745

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, the foreign currency translation adjustment primarily represents the effect on translating the intangibles and goodwill related to Curomax acquisition.

5. Stock-Based Compensation Expense

We have three types of stock-based compensation programs: stock options, restricted common stock, and an employee stock purchase plan (ESPP). For further information see Notes 2 and 12 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

The following summarizes stock-based compensation expense recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 (in thousands):

6. Business Combinations

Curomax Acquisition

On February 1, 2007, we completed the purchase of all of the outstanding shares of Curomax Corporation and its subsidiaries (Curomax) pursuant to a shares purchase agreement, made as of January 16, 2007, for a cash purchase price of approximately $39.0 million (including estimated direct acquisition and restructuring costs of approximately $1.8 million). Under the terms of the shares purchase agreement, we have future contingent payment obligations of approximately $2.3 million in cash to be paid out based upon the achievement of certain operational objectives over the subsequent twenty-four months. The additional purchase consideration, if any, will be recorded as additional goodwill on our consolidated balance sheet when the contingency is resolved. As of September 30, 2007, none of these contingencies were resolved.

Curomax offers an online financing portal similar to our existing portal and DealerAccess. This acquisition will further enhance our ability to provide leading technology solutions to the Canadian automotive finance industry and expand our dealer and financing source customer base in Canada.

In connection with the Curomax business combination we originally recorded in purchase accounting an estimated restructuring liability of $1.5 million relating to employee severance and related benefit costs. To date, we paid $1.3 million of employee severance and related benefit costs. As of September 30, 2007, we have substantially completed all of the workforce reductions, and the remaining liability is $0.2 million, which is expected to be paid by December 31, 2007. The estimated liability may change subsequent to its initial recognition, requiring adjustments to the purchase price recorded.

This acquisition was recorded under the purchase method of accounting, resulting in the total purchase price being allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed according to their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition as follows (in thousands):


Current assets	$	2,454
Property and equipment		339
Intangible assets		21,670
Goodwill		19,926


Total assets acquired		44,389
Total liabilities assumed		(5,424	)


Net assets acquired	$	38,965

Total liabilities assumed includes a $3.9 million deferred tax liability that relates to the future amortization of acquired intangibles.

We allocated the amounts to intangible assets and goodwill based on fair value appraisals as follows: approximately $17.2 million of the purchase price has been allocated to customer contracts, $0.8 million to purchased technology and $3.7 million to non-compete agreements. These intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over one to four years based on each intangible’s estimated useful life. We also recorded approximately $19.9 million in goodwill, which represents the remainder of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired.

The results of Curomax were included in our consolidated statements of operations from the date of acquisition.

Arkona Acquisition

On June 6, 2007, we completed the purchase of all of the outstanding shares of Arkona, Inc. (Arkona) for a cash purchase price of approximately $60.0 million (including estimated direct acquisition costs of approximately $1.0 million). This acquisition expands our product suite with an on-demand dealership management system that can be utilized by franchised, independent and other specialty retail dealers.


Current assets	$	2,740
Property and equipment		2,065
Other assets		191
Intangible assets		25,760
Goodwill		38,943


Total assets acquired		69,699
Total liabilities assumed		(9,726	)


Net assets acquired	$	59,973

Total liabilities assumed includes a $9.6 million deferred tax liability that relates to the future amortization of acquired intangibles offset by a $5.5 million deferred tax asset that relates primarily to acquired net operating loss carryovers.

We are in the process of finalizing the fair value assessment for the acquired identifiable assets, which is expected to be completed by December 31, 2007, and accordingly the related purchase accounting is not final as of September 30, 2007. We preliminarily allocated the amounts to intangible assets and goodwill based on estimated fair value appraisals as follows: approximately $14.7 million of the purchase price has been allocated to purchased technology, $9.3 million to customer contracts and $1.8 million to non-compete agreements. These estimated intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated period of one to five years based on each intangible’s estimated useful life. We also preliminarily recorded approximately $38.9 million in goodwill, which represents the remainder of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired.

The results of Arkona were included in our consolidated statements of operations from the date of acquisition.

AutoStyleMart Acquisition

On August 1, 2007, we completed the purchase of all of the outstanding shares of AutoStyleMart, Inc. (AutoStyleMart), for a purchase price of $4.1 million in cash (including estimated direct acquisition costs of $0.3 million). Under the terms of the merger agreement, we have future contingent payment obligations of up to $11.0 million in cash, based upon the achievement of certain operational targets by February 1, 2010. The additional purchase consideration, if any, will be recorded as additional goodwill on our consolidated balance sheet when the contingency is resolved. As of September 30, 2007, none of these contingencies were resolved. AutoStyleMart is a provider of on-demand software solutions and services that enable auto dealers to procure, manage and sell vehicle accessories.

We allocated the amounts to intangible assets and goodwill based on fair value as follows: approximately $3.7 million of the purchase price has been allocated to purchased technology and $0.4 million to non-compete agreements. These intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over four to five years based on each intangible’s estimated useful life. We also recorded approximately $0.8 million in goodwill, which represents the remainder of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired.

The results of AutoStyleMart were included in our consolidated statements of operations from the date of acquisition.

7. Related Party Transactions

Service Agreement with Related Parties — Financing Sources

We have entered into agreements with the automotive financing source affiliates of certain of our current and former stockholders. Each has agreed to subscribe to and use our network to receive credit application data and transmit credit decisions electronically and several have subscribed to our data services and other products. Under the agreements to receive credit application data and transmit credit decisions electronically, the automotive financing source affiliates of these current and former stockholders have “most favored nation” status, granting each of them the right to no less favorable pricing terms for certain of our products and services than those granted by us to other financing sources, subject to limited exceptions. The agreements of the automotive financing source affiliates of these stockholders also restrict our ability to terminate such agreements.

The total amount of net revenue from these related parties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $11.9 million and $30.7 million, respectively.

As a result of our October 12, 2006 public offering, we no longer have a financing source as a related party.

Service Agreements with Related Parties — Other Service and Information Providers

During 2003, we entered into several agreements with a stockholder and its affiliates that is a service provider for automotive dealers. These automotive dealers may utilize our network to access customer credit reports and customer leads provided by or through this related party. We earn revenue, subject to certain maximums where applicable, from this related party for each credit report or customer lead that is accessed using our web-based service. The total amount of net revenue from this related party for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was $0.6 million and $0.6 million, respectively. The total amount of net revenue from this related party for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was $1.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively. The total amount of accounts receivable from this related party as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 was $0.4 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Amortization expense that will be charged to income for the remaining period of 2007, based on the September 30, 2007 book value, is approximately $7.8 million.

Amortization expense that will be charged to income for the subsequent five years and thereafter is estimated, based on the September 30, 2007 book value, to be $23.6 million in 2008, $17.9 million in 2009, $14.9 million in 2010, $6.4 million in 2011, $2.0 million in 2012 and thereafter $1.7 million.

On May 4, 2007, we completed an asset acquisition from Manheim Auction, Inc. of a non-compete agreement, customer list and a three-year data license for approximately $5.1 million. Based upon a fair value assessment we allocated $4.2 million to the non-compete agreement, $0.4 million to the customer list and $0.5 million to the data license. All three intangibles will be amortized to cost of revenue over three years.

Included in the gross book value as of September 30, 2007, is $3.1 million in foreign currency translation.

12. Income Taxes

We adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 of FIN 48, on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 specifies the way companies are to account for uncertainty in income tax reporting, and prescribes the methodology for recognizing, reversing, and measuring the tax benefits of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. Our adoption of FIN 48 did not result in any change to the level of our liability for uncertain tax positions, and there was no adjustment to our retained earnings for the cumulative effect of an accounting change. At January 1, 2007, the total liability for uncertain tax positions recorded in our balance sheet in accrued other liabilities was $0.4 million. Approximately $0.3 million of the liability for uncertain tax positions would affect our effective rate upon the resolution of uncertain tax positions. We settled $0.3 million of these liabilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. We do not expect any significant changes to our uncertain tax positions during the next three months.

We file a consolidated U.S. income tax return and tax returns in various state and local jurisdictions. Certain of our subsidiaries also file income tax returns in Canada. The Internal Revenue Service has completed its examination of our federal income tax returns through 2004.

Interest and penalties, if any, related to tax positions taken in our tax returns are recorded in interest expense and general and administrative expenses, respectively, in our consolidated statement of operations. At January 1, 2007, no amounts were accrued for interest and penalties related to tax positions taken on our tax returns. There was no change to this amount during the first nine months of 2007.

13. Long-Term Incentive Equity Awards

On August 2, 2006, November 2, 2006, and July 21, 2007, the compensation committee of the board of directors granted long-term incentive equity awards under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan consisting of 565,000 shares, 35,000 shares, and 10,000 shares of restricted common stock, respectively, to certain executive officers and other employees. Each individual’s award is allocated 50% to achieving earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to reflect any future acquisitions (EBITDA Performance Award) and 50% to the market value of our common stock (Market Value Award). The awards are earned upon our achievement of EBITDA and market-based targets for the years ending December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009, but will not vest unless the grantee remains continuously employed in active service until January 31, 2010. If an EBITDA Performance Award or Market Value Award is not earned in an earlier year, it can be earned upon achievement of that target in a subsequent year. The awards will accelerate in full upon a change in control, if any.

In accordance with FAS 123R, we valued the EBITDA Performance Award and the Market Value Award using the Black-Scholes and binomial lattice-based valuation pricing models, respectively. The total fair value of the entire EBITDA Performance Award is $5.8 million (prior to estimated forfeitures), of which, in January 2007, we began expensing on a straight-line basis the amount associated with the 2007 award as it was deemed probable that the performance threshold for the year ending December 31, 2007 would be met. The expense recorded related to the EBITDA Performance Award was $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The total value of the entire Market Value Award is $2.5 million (including estimated forfeitures), which is expensed on a straight-line basis from the date of grant over the applicable service period. As long as the service condition is satisfied, the expense is not reversed, even if the market conditions are not satisfied. The expense recorded related to the Market Value Award was $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

Executive Severance Commitment

As of September 30, 2007, we have remaining obligations to pay an executive severance commitment of $0.4 million, which will be paid in equal installments over the succeeding 12 months.

Retail Sales Tax

The Ontario Ministry of Revenue (the Ministry) has conducted a retail sales tax field audit on the financial records of one of our Canadian subsidiaries, DealerAccess Canada, Inc., for the period from March 1, 2001 through May 31, 2003. We received a formal assessment from the Ministry indicating unpaid Ontario retail sales tax totaling approximately $0.2 million, plus interest. Although we are disputing the Ministry’s findings, the assessment, including interest, has been paid in order to avoid potential future interest and penalties for this period under audit.

As part of the purchase agreement dated December 31, 2003 between us and Bank of Montreal for the purchase of 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of DealerAccess, Bank of Montreal agreed to indemnify us specifically for this potential liability for all sales tax periods prior to January 1, 2004. To date, all amounts paid to the Ministry by us for this assessment have been reimbursed by the Bank of Montreal under this indemnity.

We have undertaken a comprehensive review of the audit findings of the Ministry using external tax experts. Our position is that our financing source revenue transactions are not subject to Ontario retail sales tax. We filed a formal Notice of Objection with the Ministry on December 12, 2005. We received a letter dated November 2, 2007 from an appeals officer of the Ministry stating that the assessment was, in his opinion, properly raised and his intention was to recommend his confirmation to senior management of the Ministry. The officer agreed, however, to defer his recommendation for a period of thirty business days to enable us to submit any additional information not yet provided. We intend to submit additional information to the Ministry and to continue to challenge the assessment because we do not believe these services are subject to sales tax. As such, we have not accrued any related sales tax liability for the period subsequent to December 31, 2003, for these financing source revenue transactions.

In the event we are obligated to charge sales tax for this type of transaction, our Canadian subsidiaries contractual arrangements with their financing source customers obligate these customers to pay all sales taxes that are levied or imposed by any taxing authority by reason of the transactions contemplated under the particular contractual arrangement. In the event of any failure to pay such amounts, we would be required to pay the obligation, which could range from $3.3 million (CAD) to $4.4 million (CAD) for these subsidiaries.

Commitments

Pursuant to employment or severance agreements with certain employees, we have a commitment to pay severance of approximately $7.5 million as of September 30, 2007 and $6.5 million as of December 31, 2006, in the event of termination without cause, as defined in the agreements, as well as certain potential gross-up payments to the extent any such severance payment would constitute an excess parachute payment under the Internal Revenue Code.

We are a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which we may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to breach of contract, infringement and other matters. Typically, these obligations arise in the context of agreements entered into by us, under which we customarily agree to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from breaches of representations, warranties and/or covenants. In these circumstances, payment by us is generally conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular agreement, which procedures typically allow us to challenge the other party’s claims. Further, our obligations under these agreements may be limited to indemnification of third-party claims only and limited in terms of time and/or amount. In some instances, we may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by us.

It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these or similar agreements due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. To date, we have not been required to make any such payment. We believe that if we were to incur a loss in any of these matters, it is not probable that such loss would have a material effect on our business or financial condition.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are a party to litigation matters arising in connection with the normal course of our business, none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on us. In addition to the litigation matters arising in connection with the normal course of our business, we are party to the litigation described below.

DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne LLC

The court has approved a joint stipulation of dismissal with respect to this action. Pursuant to the joint stipulation, the patent count has been dismissed without prejudice to be pursued as part of the below consolidated actions and all other counts have been dismissed with prejudice.

DealerTrack, Inc. v. Finance Express et al., CV-06-2335;
DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne and Finance Express et al., CV-06-6864; and
DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne and Finance Express et al., CV-07-215

On April 18, 2006, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against David Huber, Finance Express LLC (Finance Express), and three of their unnamed dealer customers in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Civil Action No. CV 06-2335 (SJF). The complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief as well as damages against the defendants for infringement of the Patents. We also are seeking relief for acts of copyright infringement and unfair competition.

On June 8, 2006, David Huber and Finance Express filed their answer and counterclaims. The counterclaims seek damages for libel related to an allegation in the complaint, breach of contract, deceit, actual and constructive fraud, misappropriation of trade secrets and unfair competition related to a confidentiality agreement between the parties. On October 26, 2006, the Court dismissed the counterclaim for libel pursuant to a motion by us.

On October 27, 2006, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against RouteOne, David Huber and Finance Express in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Civil Action No. CV 06-6864 (SJF). The complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief as well as damages against the defendants for infringement of the Patents. On November 28, 2006 and December 4, 2006, respectively, defendants RouteOne, David Huber and Finance Express filed their answers. Finance Express also asserted counterclaims for breach of contract, deceit, actual and constructive fraud, misappropriation of trade secrets and unfair competition related to a confidentiality agreement between Finance Express and us.

On February 20, 2007, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against RouteOne LLC, David Huber and Finance Express in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Civil Action No. CV 07-215 (CWx). The complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief as well as damages against the defendants for infringement of U. S. Pat. No. 7,181,427 (the ‘427 Patent). On April 13, 2007 and April 17, 2007, respectively, defendants RouteOne, David Huber and Finance Express filed their answers. RouteOne, David Huber and Finance Express asserted counterclaims for a declaratory judgment of unenforceability due to inequitable conduct with respect to the ‘427 Patent and the Patents. David Huber and Finance Express also asserted counterclaims for breach of contract, deceit, actual and constructive fraud, misappropriation of trade secrets and unfair competition related to a confidentiality agreement between Finance Express and us.

The DealerTrack, Inc. v. Finance Express et al., CV-06-2335 action, the DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne and Finance Express et al., CV-06-6864 action and the DealerTrack v. RouteOne and Finance Express et al., CV-07-215 action, described above, have been consolidated by the Court. Discovery is underway in the consolidated action. A hearing on claims construction, referred to as a “Markman” hearing, was held on September 25, 2007. A decision in the Markman hearing has not yet been issued.

We intend to pursue our claims and defend any counter claims vigorously.

We believe that the potential liability from all current litigations will not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations when resolved in a future period.

15. Segment Information

In accordance with SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (SFAS No. 131) segment information is being reported consistent with our method of internal reporting. In accordance with SFAS No. 131, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The chief operating decision maker reviews information at a consolidated level, as such we have one reportable segment under SFAS No. 131. For enterprise-wide disclosure, we are organized primarily on the basis of service lines. Revenue earned outside of the United States for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, is approximately 10% of our total net revenue. Revenue earned outside of the United States for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was less than 10% of our total net revenue.

Supplemental disclosure of revenue by service type is as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended

16. Credit Facility

We have a $25.0 million revolving credit facility available to us at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 150 basis points or Prime plus 50 basis points. The revolving credit facility is available for general corporate purposes (including acquisitions), subject to certain conditions. As of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, we had no amounts outstanding and $25.0 million available for borrowings under this revolving credit facility, which matures on April 15, 2008.

17. Subsequent Event

On October 24, 2007, we completed the public offering of 5,175,000 shares (including 675,000 shares sold upon the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option) of our common stock at a price of $46.40 per share. In this offering, 2,300,000 shares were sold by us and 2,875,000 shares were sold by a stockholder. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of our common stock by the selling stockholder. The net proceeds to us from the sale of our common stock in this offering were $102 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

DealerTrack is a leading provider of on-demand software, and data solutions for the automotive and related retail industries in the United States. Utilizing the Internet, we have built a network connecting automotive dealers with banks, finance companies, credit unions and other financing sources, and other service and information providers, such as aftermarket providers and the major credit reporting agencies. We have established a network of active relationships in the United States, which, as of September 30, 2007, consisted of over 22,000 automotive dealers, including over 90% of all franchised dealers; over 425 financing sources, including the 20 largest independent financing sources and a number of other service and information providers to the automotive retail industry. Our credit application processing product enables dealers to automate and accelerate the indirect automotive financing process by increasing the speed of communications between these dealers and their financing sources. We have leveraged our leading market position in credit application processing to address other inefficiencies in the automotive retail industry value chain. We believe our proven network provides a competitive advantage for distribution of our software and data solutions. Our integrated subscription-based software products and services enable our dealer customers to manage their dealership data and operations, receive valuable consumer leads, compare various financing and leasing options and programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products, analyze inventory, document compliance with certain laws and execute financing contracts electronically. We have also created efficiencies for financing source customers by providing a comprehensive digital and electronic contracting solution. In addition, we offer data and other products and services to various industry participants, including lease residual value and automobile configuration data.

We are a Delaware corporation formed in August 2001. We are organized as a holding company and conduct a substantial amount of our business through our subsidiaries including Automotive Lease Guide (alg), Inc., Arkona, Inc., AutoStyleMart, Inc., Chrome Systems, Inc., Curomax Corp., DealerTrack Aftermarket Services, Inc., DealerTrack Canada, Inc., DealerTrack Digital Services, Inc., DealerTrack, Inc., and webalg, inc.

We monitor our performance as a business using a number of measures that are not found in our consolidated financial statements. These measures include the number of active dealers and financing sources in the DealerTrack network, the number of transactions processed and number of product subscriptions. We believe that improvements in these metrics will result in improvements in our financial performance over time. We also view the acquisition and successful integration of acquired companies as important milestones in the growth of our business as these acquired companies bring new products to our customers and expand our technological capabilities. We believe that successful acquisitions will also lead to improvements in our financial performance over time. In the near term, however, the purchase accounting treatment of acquisitions can have a negative impact on our net income as the depreciation and amortization expenses associated with acquired assets, as well as particular intangibles (which tend to have a relatively short useful life), can be substantial in the first several years following an acquisition. As a result, we monitor our EBITDA and other business statistics as a measure of operating performance in addition to net income and the other measures included in our consolidated financial statements.

The following is a table consisting of EBITDA and certain other business statistics that management is continually monitoring (amounts in thousands, except active dealers, financing source data, and product subscriptions):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2007		2006		2007		2006
EBITDA and Other Business Statistics:
EBITDA (1)	$	17,534	$	9,322	$	51,030	$	33,496
Capital expenditures, software and web site development costs	$	3,520	$	1,837	$	9,220	$	9,159
Active dealers in our network as of end of the period (2)		22,551		22,276		22,551		22,276
Active financing sources in our network as of end of period (3)		427		268		427		268
Transactions processed (4)		23,810		18,837		70,033		51,994
Product subscriptions (5)		27,469		19,952		27,469		19,952


(1)		EBITDA represents net income before interest (income) expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We present EBITDA because we believe that EBITDA provides useful information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. We rely on EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of our company and management team in connection with our executive compensation plan incentive payments. In addition, our credit agreement uses EBITDA (with additional adjustments), in part, to measure our compliance with covenants such as interest coverage.

EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Some of these limitations are:

•		EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

•		EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

•		EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts;

•		Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and

•		Other companies may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

		Because of these limitations, EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using EBITDA only supplementally. EBITDA is a measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net income, our most directly comparable financial measure in accordance with GAAP (in thousands):

Revenue

Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction services revenue consists of revenue earned from our financing source customers for each credit application that dealers submit to them. We also earn transaction services revenue from financing source customers for each financing contract executed via our electronic contracting and digital contract processing solutions, as well as for any portfolio residual value analyses we perform for them. We also earn transaction services revenue from dealers or other service and information providers, such as aftermarket providers, vehicle sales lead distributors, and credit report providers, for each fee-bearing product accessed by dealers.

Subscription Services Revenue. Subscription services revenue consists of revenue earned from our customers (typically on a monthly basis) for use of our subscription or license-based products and services. Some of these subscription services enable dealer customers to manage their dealership data and operations, obtain valuable consumer leads, compare various financing and leasing options and programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products, analyze inventory, and execute financing contracts electronically.

Cost of Revenue and Operating Expenses

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue primarily consists of expenses related to running our network infrastructure (including Internet connectivity and data storage), amortization expense on acquired intangible assets, compensation and related benefits for network personnel, amounts paid to third parties pursuant to contracts under which a portion of certain revenue is owed to those third parties (revenue share), direct costs (printing, binding, and delivery) associated with our residual value guides, hardware costs associated with our dealership management system product offering, allocated overhead and amortization associated with capitalization of software. We allocate overhead such as rent and occupancy charges, employee benefit costs, and depreciation expense to all departments based on headcount, as we believe this to be the most accurate measure. As a result, a portion of general overhead expenses is reflected in our cost of revenue and each operating expense category.

We are in the process of finalizing the fair value assessment for the Arkona acquired identifiable assets, which is expected to be completed by December 31, 2007, and accordingly the related purchase accounting is not final as of September 30, 2007. We preliminarily allocated the amounts to intangible assets and goodwill based on estimated fair value appraisals as follows: approximately $14.7 million of the purchase price has been allocated to purchased technology, $9.3 million to customer contracts and $1.8 million to non-compete agreements. These estimated intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated period of four to five years based on each intangible’s estimated useful life. We also preliminarily recorded approximately $38.9 million in goodwill, which represents the remainder of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired.

Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, consulting fees and other operating expenses associated with our product development departments. The product development departments perform research and development, as well as enhance and maintain existing products.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, facility costs and professional services fees for our sales, marketing, customer service and administrative functions.

Acquisitions

We have grown our business since inception through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions. The operating results of each business acquired have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the respective dates of acquisition.

On August 1, 2007, we completed the purchase of all of the outstanding shares of AutoStyleMart, Inc., for a purchase price of $4.1 million in cash (including estimated direct acquisition costs of $0.3 million). Under the terms of the merger agreement, we have future contingent payment obligations of up to $11.0 million in cash, based upon the achievement of certain operational targets by February 1, 2010. AutoStyleMart is a provider of on-demand software solutions and services that enable auto dealers to procure, manage and sell vehicle accessories.

On June 6, 2007, we completed the purchase of all of the outstanding shares of Arkona, for a cash purchase price of approximately $60.0 million (including estimated direct acquisition costs of approximately $1.0 million). Arkona is a provider of on-demand dealer management systems for automotive dealerships.

On February 1, 2007, we completed the purchase of all of the outstanding shares of Curomax for a cash purchase price of approximately $39.0 million (including estimated direct acquisition and restructuring costs of approximately $1.8 million). Under the terms of the shares purchase agreement, we have future contingent payment obligations of approximately $2.3 million in cash to be paid out based upon the achievement of certain operational objectives over the subsequent twenty-four months.

On August 1, 2006, we acquired substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of DealerWare L.L.C. (DealerWare) for a purchase price of $5.1 million in cash (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.1 million). DealerWare is a provider of aftermarket menu-selling and other dealership software.

On May 3, 2006, we acquired substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Global Fax L.L.C. (Global Fax) for a purchase price of $24.6 million in cash (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.3 million). Global Fax provides outsourced document scanning, storage, data entry and retrieval services for automotive financing customers.

On February 2, 2006, we acquired substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of WiredLogic, Inc., doing business as DealerWire, Inc. (DealerWire), for a purchase price of $6.0 million in cash (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.1 million). DealerWire allows a dealership to evaluate its sales and inventory performance by vehicle make, model and trim, including information about unit sales, costs, days to turn and front-end gross profit.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported for assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. A summary of our significant accounting policies is more fully described in Note 2 in the section entitled “Financial Statements” in Part I, Item 1. of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our critical accounting policies are those that we believe are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that involve difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The estimates are based on historical experience and on various assumptions about the ultimate outcome of future events. Our actual results may differ from these estimates in the event unforeseen events occur or should the assumptions used in the estimation process differ from actual results. Management believes there have been no material changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to the critical accounting policies discussed in the section entitled “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2007 and amended on April 30, 2007.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2007 and 2006

Revenue

Total net revenue increased $16.6 million, or 36%, to $62.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $46.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006.

Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction services revenue increased $8.3 million, or 27%, to $39.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $30.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase was primarily the result of a 26% increase in the volume of transactions processed through our network to 23.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from 18.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, coupled with a 59% increase in financing source customers active in our network to 427 as of September 30, 2007 from 268 as of September 30, 2006. Included in the $8.3 million increase is $3.3 million related to acquisitions.

Subscription Services Revenue. Subscription services revenue increased $6.5 million, or 47%, to $20.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $13.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase in revenue from our subscription products was primarily the result of the 38% increase in total subscriptions to 27,469 as of September 30, 2007 from 19,952 as of September 30, 2006. Included in the $6.5 million increase is $2.4 million related to acquisitions.

Cost of Revenue and Operating Expenses

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased $8.6 million, or 45%, to $27.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $19.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The $8.6 million increase was primarily the result of increased amortization and depreciation charges of $3.5 million primarily relating to the acquisitions of Arkona, AutoSytleMart, Curomax, DealerWare, and the assets acquisition from Manheim Auction, increased compensation and benefits related costs of $3.3 million due to overall headcount additions including those from acquired companies, $0.8 million in cost of revenue from the Arkona business and $0.4 million in cost of revenue from our digital contract business.

Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses increased $0.5 million or 24%, to $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The $0.5 million increase was primarily a result of increased compensation and related benefit costs due to headcount additions.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $3.1 million, or 14%, to $25.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $22.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The $3.1 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit costs of approximately $3.6 million due to headcount additions and salary increases, increased marketing and travel expenses of $1.3 million, $0.4 million in increased professional fees, $0.3 million in increased occupancy and telecommunication expenses, and $0.2 million in increased bad debt expense. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation of $3.5 million (included in the three months ended September 30, 2006 non-cash stock based compensation is $5.0 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense related to the departure of an executive officer).

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2007 of $3.2 million consisted primarily of $2.0 million of federal tax, $0.3 million of state and local income taxes, and $0.9 million of tax expense for our Canadian subsidiaries. Impacting the provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2007 is $0.3 million of non-deductible amortization of acquisition-related intangibles of our Canadian subsidiaries. The benefit for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2006 of $2.3 million consisted primarily of $0.5 million of federal tax expense and $0.7 million of state and local tax expense, offset by $3.5 million of net tax benefit for one of our Canadian subsidiaries. The $3.5 million net tax benefit relating to this Canadian subsidiary consists primarily of the reversal of a deferred tax valuation allowance in the amount of $3.7 million. The reversal of this Canadian subsidiary’s deferred tax valuation allowance during the third quarter of 2006 was based on a number of factors, including a history of pre-tax income over a significant period and the level of projected future pre-tax income based on current operations. Based upon these factors, we believe that it is more likely than not that our Canadian subsidiary will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to utilize the deferred tax asset outstanding as of September 30, 2006. Although these deferred tax assets begin to expire in 2008, we believe that they will be utilized prior to expiration. The effective tax rate reflects the impact of the applicable statutory rate for federal and state income tax purposes for the period shown.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007 and 2006

Revenue

Total net revenue increased $45.5 million, or 36%, to $173.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $127.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction services revenue increased $28.3 million, or 34%, to $112.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $83.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The increase was primarily the result of a 35% increase in the volume of transactions processed through our network to 70.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from 52.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, coupled with a 59% increase in financing source customers active in our network to 427 as of September 30, 2007 from 268 as of September 30, 2006. Included in the $28.3 million increase is $13.4 million related to acquisitions.

Subscription Services Revenue. Subscription services revenue increased $15.1 million, or 39%, to $53.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $38.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The increase in revenue from our subscription products was primarily the result of the 38% increase in total subscriptions to 27,469 from 19,952 as of September 30, 2006. Included in the $15.1 million increase is $4.4 million related to acquisitions.

Cost of Revenue and Operating Expenses

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased $21.6 million, or 42%, to $73.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $51.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The $21.6 million increase was primarily the result of increased amortization and depreciation charges of $8.1 million primarily relating to the acquisitions of Arkona, AutoStyleMart, Curomax, Global Fax, DealerWare, and the asset acquisition from Manheim Auction, increased compensation and benefits related costs of $8.6 million due to overall headcount additions including those from acquired companies, and $2.0 million in cost of revenue from our digital contract business.

Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses increased $0.6 million or 9%, to $7.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $6.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The $0.6 million increase was primarily a result of increased compensation and related benefit costs due to headcount additions.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $14.2 million, or 26%, to $69.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $55.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The $14.2 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit costs of approximately $9.6 million due to headcount additions and salary increases, $0.9 million in increased professional fees, and $2.7 million related to increased marketing and travel expenses. These amounts were partially offset by a decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation of $2.0 million (included in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 non-cash stock based compensation is $5.0 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense related to the departure of an executive officer).

Interest Income

Interest income increased $1.0 million, or 40%, to $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The $1.0 million increase is primarily related to the interest income earned on net cash proceeds from our public offering in October 2006.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 of $11.3 million consisted primarily of $8.0 million of federal tax, $1.1 million of state and local income taxes, $0.5 million of adjustments due to a change in the New York State tax rate, and $1.7 million of tax expense for our Canadian subsidiaries. Impacting the provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 is $0.8 million of non-deductible amortization of acquisition related intangibles of our Canadian subsidiaries. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 of $3.2 million consisted primarily of $4.6 million of federal tax expense and $1.5 million of state and local income tax expense, offset by a $2.9 million net tax benefit relating to our Canadian subsidiary. The $4.6 million in federal tax expense includes $0.2 million of additional tax expense that relates to prior periods. The $2.9 million net tax benefit relating to one of our Canadian subsidiaries consists primarily of the reversal of a deferred tax valuation allowance in the amount of $3.7 million offset by $0.8 million of current tax expense. The reversal of this Canadian subsidiary’s deferred tax valuation allowance during the third quarter of 2006 was based on a number of factors, including a history of pre-tax income over a significant period and the level of projected future pre-tax income based on current operations. Based upon these factors, we believe that it is more likely than not that this Canadian subsidiary will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to utilize the deferred tax asset outstanding as of September 30, 2006. Although these deferred tax assets begin to expire in 2008, we believe that they will be utilized prior to expiration. The effective tax rate reflects the impact of the applicable statutory rate for federal and state income tax purposes for the period shown.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity requirements are for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. Our capital expenditures, software and web site development costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 were $9.2 million, of which $8.7 million was in cash. We expect to finance our future liquidity needs through working capital and cash flows from operations, however future acquisitions or other strategic initiatives may require us to incur or seek additional financing. As of September 30, 2007, we had no amounts outstanding under our available $25.0 million revolving credit facility.

As of September 30, 2007, we had $97.6 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and $106.8 million in working capital, as compared to $171.2 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and $168.8 million in working capital as of December 31, 2006.

The following table sets forth the cash flow components for the following periods (in thousands):


	Nine Months Ended
	September 30,
	2007			2006
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	33,143		$	27,786
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(46,766	)	$	(103,601	)
Net cash provided by financing activities	$	10,498		$	2,444

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was primarily attributable to net income of $15.6 million, which includes depreciation and amortization of $27.6 million, amortization of stock-based compensation of $8.0 million, an increase to the provision for doubtful accounts and sales credits of $3.9 million, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2.9 million and an increase to deferred revenue and other current liabilities of $0.3 million, partially offset by a deferred tax benefit of $5.0 million, a stock-based compensation windfall tax benefit of $6.2 million, an increase in accounts receivable (including related party) of $13.9 million due to an overall increase in revenue. Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was primarily attributable to net income of $13.7 million, which includes depreciation and amortization of $19.2 million, amortization of stock-based compensation of $9.1 million, and an increase to the provision for doubtful accounts and sales credits of $3.6 million, offset by a deferred tax benefit of $7.3 million, a increase in accounts receivable (including related party) of $5.4 million, and a decrease in accounts payable (including related party) and accrued expenses of $1.0 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was primarily attributable to capital expenditures of $4.3 million, an increase in capitalized software and web site development costs of $4.4 million, and payment for net assets acquired of $109.4 million, offset by the net sale of short-term investments of $71.4 million. Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was primarily attributable to capital expenditures of $2.6 million, an increase in capitalized software and website development costs of $2.8 million, payments for net assets acquired of $37.5 million, partially offset by the net purchase of short-term investments of $60.8 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was primarily attributable to the exercise of employee stock options of $3.5 million, net proceeds received from employee stock purchases under our employee stock purchase plan of $1.3 million, and stock-based compensation windfall tax benefit of $6.2 million offset by principal payments on note payable and capital lease obligations of $0.4 million. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was primarily attributable to the receipt of cash proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options of $1.2 million, net proceeds received from employee stock purchases under our employee stock purchase plan of $0.6 million and stock-based compensation windfall tax benefit of $1.5 million, offset by principal payments on note payable and capital lease obligations of $0.7 million.

Contractual Obligations

As of September 30, 2007, there were no material changes in our contractual obligations as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, as amended, except for the capital and operating lease obligations of $1.5 million, assumed in connection with the June 6, 2007 acquisition of Arkona and an operating lease related to additional space assumed and the extension of our lease agreement for corporate headquarters on November 5, 2007 of $14.5 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which are typically established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

Industry Trends

Our business is impacted by the volume of new and used automobiles financed or leased by our participating financing source customers, special promotions by automobile manufacturers and the level of indirect financing by captive finance companies not available in our network. Our business may be affected by these and other industry and promotional trends in the indirect automotive finance market.

Effects of Inflation

Our monetary assets, consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and receivables, and our non-monetary assets, consisting primarily of intangible assets and goodwill, are not affected significantly by inflation. We believe that replacement costs of equipment, furniture and leasehold improvements will not materially affect our operations. However, the rate of inflation affects our expenses, which may not be readily recoverable in the prices of products and services we offer.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Currency Exposure

We only have operations located in, and provide services to, customers in the United States and Canada. Our earnings are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar as compared with the Canadian dollar. Our exposure is mitigated, in part, by the fact that we incur certain operating costs in the same foreign currencies in which revenue is denominated. The foreign currency exposure that does exist is limited by the fact that the majority of transactions are paid according to our standard payment terms, which are generally short-term in nature.

Interest Rate Exposure

As of September 30, 2007, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $97.6 million invested in highly liquid money market instruments and tax-free and tax advantaged auction rate preferred securities. Such investments are subject to interest rate and credit risk. These amounts are also currently invested in highly liquid money market instruments and tax-free and tax advantaged auction rate preferred securities. Our policy of investing in securities with original maturities of three months or less minimizes such risks and a change in market interest rates would not be expected to have a material impact on our financial condition and/or results of operations. As of September 30, 2007, we had no borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility. Any borrowings under our revolving credit facility would bear interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin of 1.5% or Prime plus 0.5%.

On October 24, 2007, we raised approximately $102 million (net proceeds) in a public offering of our common stock. Pending the use of these proceeds in the manner described in the final prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b), we intend to invest these proceeds in short-term, marketable securities.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we and our management recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that they believe that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We are in the process of evaluating our internal controls environment to determine if any changes are required based on our acquisitions of Curomax and Arkona.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne LLC

On January 28, 2004, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against RouteOne LLC (RouteOne) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Civil Action No. CV 04-322 (SLT). The complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief as well as damages against RouteOne for infringement of two patents which are owned by us, which relate to computer implemented automated credit application analysis and decision routing inventions (the Patents). The complaint also seeks relief for RouteOne’s acts of copyright infringement, circumvention of technological measures and common law fraud and unfair competition. The court has approved a joint stipulation of dismissal with respect to this action. Pursuant to the joint stipulation, the patent count has been dismissed without prejudice to be pursued as part of the below consolidated actions and all other counts have been dismissed with prejudice.

We intend to pursue our claims and defend any counter claims vigorously.

We believe that the potential liability from all current litigations will not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations when resolved in a future period.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, as amended, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The risks described in that Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer
