We determined that these criteria </font><font style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;letter-spacing:-0.1pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">were</font><font style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;letter-spacing:-0.1pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;"> met once a product entered the &#8220;beta&#8221; stage: the product was 70-90% f</font><font style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;letter-spacing:-0.1pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">unctionally complete, well tested in-house, and ready for external testing by customers. Therefore, we would begin capitalizing costs once the product entered this beta stage and stop capitalizing costs when the product became generally available to custom</font><font style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;letter-spacing:-0.1pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">ers. As an example, the beta period for which we capitalized costs ranged from two to six months for our earlier MicroStrategy &#8220;9.x&#8221; versions and was ten months for </font><font style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;letter-spacing:-0.1pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">our </font><font style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;letter-spacing:-0.1pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">MicroStrategy 10</font><font style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;letter-spacing:-0.1pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;"> version</font><font style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;letter-spacing:-0.1pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">.

Internal testing of a working &#8220;release candidate&#8221; version incorporating these updates is conducted in-house beginning approximately two weeks prior to general release to customers. Upon completion of internal testing of the release candidate, we announce the release of a new generally available version &#8220;10.x&#8221; incorporating new features, patches and hot-fixes developed since the last quarterly release.&nbsp;&nbsp;Under this agile development model, there is limited, if any, customer testing, and therefore no measurable beta period or capitalization period exists.&nbsp;&nbsp;The agile development model allows our entire customer base to experience faster and more frequent access to our new features, patches and hot-fixes. It provides the Company the ability to continuously refine its software to address customer needs based on real-time feedback received from each preceding version.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

Versions 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4 became generally available in September 2015, December 2015, March 2016, and June 2016, respectively, in each case immediately after internal testing of the release candidate had been completed.  As noted in our second quarter 2016 earnings call, we believe that the culmination of the new features, patches and hot-fixes in our earlier 10.x releases have resulted in a version 10.4 that is our most stable version to date and well-suited for broad-based adoption.&nbsp;&nbsp;Although versions 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4 contain both &#8220;maintenance&#8221; and &#8220;product enhancements&#8221; as defined under ASC 985-20-20, software production costs associated with our product enhancements are immaterial because there is no measurable beta period for our product enhancements, and these costs are expensed as incurred, similar to costs associated with maintenance activities.</p>

Beginning in 2016, budgets were also incorporated into the Merit system to monitor overall performance against corporate goals.&nbsp;&nbsp;Beginning in Q1 2016, we started using information from Merit for purposes of quarterly reviews and budgets for the entire organization. We utilize a rolling 24-month view (i.e., last 4 quarters and next 4 quarters) to set budgets at the level of each business unit. </p>

Business units are aggregated at three levels based on functional responsibilities, with a manager assigned at each level:&nbsp;&nbsp;group, division, and department. An example of this structure is the Madrid Sales business unit, which is aggregated up through the South Europe Sales group, the International Sales division, and finally to the Sales department.  Aggregation for each group and division varies across each department and may be based on geographic location or other particular focus of the department, such as product, process, or function.&nbsp;&nbsp;Typically, each group manager oversees a collection of business units; each division manager oversees a collection of groups; and each department executive oversees a collection of divisions.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

Saylor, is the Company&#8217;s CODM with respect to all business operations. In determining the CODM, we considered ASC 280-10-50-5, which states that the CODM identifies a function that allocates resources to and assesses the performance of the segments of a public entity. Mr. Saylor has served as our Chairman of the Board of Directors and CEO since founding the Company in 1989. Mr. Saylor determines the Company&#8217;s strategic and operational goals, and can approve or change budgets. Although he receives input from department executives, Mr. Saylor ultimately makes all key operating decisions across the Company.</p>

Business unit costs exclude certain costs such as stock options expense, depreciation and amortization, bad debt costs, facilities costs and non-income taxes. Departmental revenue budgets are developed based on the anticipated revenue production of certain employee roles within each business unit, and may be based on non-GAAP measures such as &#8220;bookings&#8221; (committed and annualized contract values), &#8220;delivered revenue&#8221; (based on consulting hours provided and bill rates), etc. Each budget also includes budgeted headcount to meet the objectives and goals of the department. The budgets are first reviewed by the Chief Financial Officer for consistency and reasonableness and then presented to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, President &amp; CEO, Mr. Saylor, who as indicated above, serves as the CODM for all business units.&nbsp;&nbsp;The CODM reviews each departmental budget and a consolidated budget for the Company as a whole, and either approves budgets or requests changes based on his strategic and operational goals for the Company.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

On a monthly basis, the FP&amp;A group prepares an income statement forecast, also referred to as the CFO Report, which forecasts financial and operational results at the department level. The CFO Report is reviewed by the Chief Financial Officer and CODM to forecast financial performance for the Company for the current quarter.&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, on a quarterly basis, the FP&amp;A group prepares the Board Package.&nbsp;&nbsp;Each Board Package includes an executive summary, financial and operational results at the department level (which follows the format of the CFO Report), financial and operational projections at the department level, Wall Street analyst consensus estimates, and competitor data. The departmental financial reports contain revenue, cost, operating margin, headcount, key metrics, and budget data. The CFO Report and the Board Package serve as the primary sources of information that the CODM reviews and utilizes to make key decisions.</p>

Because our departments are all inextricably linked to and rooted in the sale of our single software platform, we have concluded that we have one reportable operating segment.&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe our conclusion of one reportable operating segment for the Company is consistent with the objectives and principles of ASC 280.</p>
